FFXI crossover event

[Taika]

I hope they'll bring AV to freely roam in the world and kill all players on its way.

[Averax]

It's a surprise

I will hope for glamours.

[ChocoFeru]

Maybe Caitsith has something to do

[actionjackson83]

would be awesome to have glamour open to all classes from every job class in FFXI for FFXIV

[The_Persian]

I hope we see more folks on FFXIV after this...

My hopes and dreams for this crossover event: revealing the two worlds are connected some how. And not just by a dimension hopping portal/wormhole.

It may connected since Shantotto come to our world

As Nestama explained, Shantotto only ended up in Hydaelyn/Eorzea because of the dimension-hopping spell that she mucked up which kicked off her FFXI mini-expansion pack A Shantotto Ascension (she even name-dropped the expansion's title during the cutscene for the FFXI crossover event) - she states specifically that her native Vana'diel and Hydaelyn are completely separate worlds with no actual direct connections.

Besides, as I mentioned earlier SE already debunked FFXI and XIV being directly connected ages ago during a Letter to the Producer LIVE video, the link was formerly available here but it has since disappeared, but I saved the transcribed post by Bayohne for posterity:

Q55: There are a lot of names from Ivalice such as Dalmasca, Belias, and Zodiak that have been mentioned, is there some connection between Hydaelyn and Ivalice?

A55: To be absolutely clear, there is no connection between FFXIV’s Hydaelyn and FFXII’s Ivalice. Likewise there is no connection with FFXI’s Vana’diel. Each are their own individual world. Based on this, there are connections between the things that appear in the world, and we’ll be revealing more in the future.

So as stated, Vana'diel and Hydaelyn are not directly connected, other than like all FF worlds existing as part of a larger multiverse.

They need to let us beat Shantotto for real. I hate when people on the internet keep bringing that annoying midget to the topic where people talk about who's the strongest FF character.

[Nestama]

Well no one can beat her. If you do, then you've been fighting her automaton the entire time. The only Shantotto anyone is able to beat is Domina and Belle, yet they still got the last laugh and turned everyone in the world into Shantotto's (and only the real Shantotto could fix that mess. Godzilla style).

All they need to do is import the Sanctuary of Zi'tah into FFXIV
