Which Final Fantasy World Will We Visit Next

[Bright-Flower]

I could see more VII and VIII stuff in Garlemald where their cities might have a more modern aesthetic compared to Eorzea. Part of me also wants a bit of Type 0, or maybe I just want the uniform for glamour.

There has been a bit of VII. The scorpion robot in Ala Mhigo, The way the Meteor Project was used and the VIIth Legion.

- You forgot Final Fantasy V for Eureka,

Eureka is actually from FF III which was just a dungeon isnide the final dungeon where you could get strong weapons.

Anyway, if we ever get to the moon where the Ascians seem to be on, I hope we can get some FF 4 content where you would fight Golbez or Zeromus.

Well Eureka isn't actually Eureka though... It's just named after some legendary Allag weapons vault (which would be the FFIII reference), Eureka is actually just the Isle of Val. What we have currently has the Warriors of Dawn from FFV, plus the whole island swallowed up by the Void and transported else where? That's basically straight out of FFV, albeit the Isle of Val ended up somewhere else on Hydaelyn, rather than the Interdimensional Rift. Plus of course Krile is involved. I wouldn't be surprised if the big bad Primal sealed away is ExDeath in Exodus form (assuming Return to Ivalice wont be using Exodus, maybe Enuo if so), although seeing Odins sword in the trailer has me thinking it'll just be Raiden...

I see what you mean by the FF 5 references. But technically Eureka in 14 is still considered as the Forbidden Land where you can get some of the best weapons in the game so the concept of it is really based on the idea of the dungeon in FF III.

Just wanted to point that out. Sorry if I'm not clear ^^"

I suppose it works as both, but I'm still holding out hope that Neros scanner detected the "real" Eureka after we finished the Crystal Tower story off. With HoH tying back to Crystal Tower somewhat, I'm hoping maybe we have the means to reopen the tower in 5.0 and go to the true Forbidden Lands, I think it would make a really good Deep Dungeon tbh. I need Soken to remix that theme.

Could be interesting but since we already had Exdeath/Neo Exdeath I'm not sure if they'd go with this, or if they did they may make it an entirely separate thing and not related to the story Exdeath was based on in Deltascape. Guess we'll see.

Well whatever is sealed away on Val is a Primal, so its entirely possible to have some overlap with existing bosses (Phoenix/Firebird/Suzaku comes to mind). I doubt we'd get ExDeath as a Primal though, my thought has always been that the Allag probably sealed away Exodus (some of the Ivalice Espers were based on pass FF bigbads, Exodus being based on ExDeath IIRC) and he has now found his way to Val. Bonus points if the Warriors of Dawn found Exodus sealed in the Twelveswood (glances at the mysterious metal structure found somewhere in 1.x) before moving him to Val.

If Exodus ends up being in the Ivalice raid though, they could always go for Enuo, since that still ties back to FFV and the Void nicely. There's definitely a Void theme going on with Eureka based on Pazuzu and Louhi.

I'm expecting some FFII out of Garlemald tbh... Solus has already died and come back from Hell...

Son of a bitch, I had been banking on Varis dying and pulling this in Stormblood. (Well, joking about it anyways) But it does fit Solus better now given what we know!

I just want to point out Eureka in XIV being the home of "some of the best weapons" works for V as well as it works for III. XIV-Eureka contains a sealed castle structure, which seems to very much be an homage to the Sealed Castle of V, where you, fittingly, get the ultimate weapons.

it has to be kingdom hearts...wait..is it even an FF?
anyway I would like more from FF XIII
