Atma is Auracite from Ivalice

[Kule]

The links betwen Ivalice and Eorzea/Hydaelyn seem to be there even if YoshiP says they are not the same world.
Just thought it was interesting how similar Auracite is to Atma and the mention of Braves too.

Auracite

Zodiac Braves

I also wonder about the similarity between these two crystals.

Yeah, that is a funny connection. I mean, it's not like most of the dev team for FFXIV worked on FFXII, right? That's just crazy talk!

[Kule]

Yeah you're right, these are just superficial connections which mean nothing and Zodiark(who is also the 13th Zodiac) showing up in the story has no weight on any of this.

[AmyNeudaiz]

There are similarities to every FF title and that's how they intended to be. There's nothing special about things from XII being in here it's just a nod to the game

I'm aware there are similarities but if Lightning and Shantotto can come to Hydaelyn in their original incarnation why not a being which transcends time?

It seems shortsighted to dismiss these connections.

FFXIV has "connections" to FFIII too. And V. And VIII. And every freacking FF ever. It's a series tradition to re-use concepts and item names.

The developers already confirmed there are no connections between the two worlds, just give up.

Mor Dhona is actually Midgar, proof is The Seventh Heaven bar, it would also explain why Mor Dhona has all the fancy stuff because it is actually an interdimension location.

I, for one, welcome us turning into Lucavi once our weapons have had enough SOULS.

If we don't know by now that Final Fantasy sequels are sequels in theme and (most) not direct story sequels, idk...

Gotta love the in jokes ^^
