[SPOILERS] Revelations from Patch 4.01

[Zofis]

Is anyone here familiar with the Digimon franchise and its multiverse lore? I feel like what's happening with Omega is pretty similar.

In Digimon Tamers, the characters and events of the preceding series (Digimon Adventure and Digimon Adventure 02) were known by the characters because they existed in that world as a television show, yet were 100% real in another universe.

Playing through the content today, my interpretation wasn't that Omega was directly copying fairy tales. Fairy tales are merely Nero and Cid's rationalization of what's happening, as the events of FFV (and other titles) are known stories in the world of XIV. Omega's alien origin suggests that its data was indeed obtained from visiting other worlds in the Final Fantasy multiverse, but characters in XIV have no reason to suspect that that's what's happening.

That's a pretty interesting parallel actually. And it's funny seeing old enemies re-appear but in a completely different role.

Basically how I see things that is going on in Omega Raid so far.

What we know so far from 1st Omega Raid is just the point of view of what Cid and Nero can best explain what is going on through their logic but we all should know by now what we "believe" is often just a "certain point of view" when it comes to FF14 Storylines.
