    Crossovers that are between two companies, yes. Monster hunter benefited from the audience it gained in XIV, and XIV benefited by the audience within Monster Hunter.
    When it's one company using a crossover, it's only to promote it's second IP. Lightning was advertised within XIV to increase the poor sales of XIII, the same with XV. There wouldn't be a mutual benefit to advertising VII within XIV, as that title is anticipated and won't need the advertising as the numbers interested in VII exceed the playerbase of XIV if past sales of the original game are any indication.

    I'm not going to ever say i don't want a crossover; but it's not going to be a priority to do one if they don't need to advertise the game.

    cross overs don't need to be another form of advertisement look at the Garo event
    monster hunter world didn't need the advertisement it was something Yoshi.p and Ryozo want to do for a long time
