(Wildly speculative) idea about the next overarching threat - *spoilers*

[RyuDragnier]

I feel like this game is gonna borrow more from FFXIV than the rest of the serie.

I have a sneaking suspicion Yoshi-P and the dev team purposefully moved assets into FFXVI development so they can upscale it, get things done in a reasonable manner, and then move those assets back INTO FFXIV for the big graphical update. 2 birds, one stone.
