I remain baffled by the decision to artificially end the focus on the Ancients and Garleans in order to supposedly move on to something new only for the story to go right back to pulling at plot threads that have existed since the days of 1.0 and 2.0 once again.

I'm actually pleased that the likes of Sil'dih and the Thirteenth aren't being forgotten but I really hope that the game doesn't neglect the places mentioned in the Return to Ivalice/Save the Queen storyline. Ilsabard in general is a huge landmass that I'd rather not see remain covered in clouds.
Sadly, I wouldn't hold your breath friend. They seem to have absolutely no interest in continuing that after Matsuno either left or got pushed out. Those plot threads were explained away in the post-Bozja field reports. Incredibly disappointing. Maybe we'll get to go there some day, but for some reason I find myself doubting.
