The Relations Between FFXII and FFXIV Universes

[Bright-Flower]

XIV is inspired by other games and has easter eggs from those games. They also take elements from the other games and fit them into the XIV world.

The only thing that is the same in every Final Fantasy game is Gilgamesh. There is only one Gilgamesh. He is a riftwalker.

I suspect that Type 0 has a different gilgamesh, because it gives him a defined tragic origin story and IMO he doesn't really feel like the same character tonally as most other apeparances.
