Altima and zalera are so similar...I mean a lot of FFXII summons are like cousins of the original FF summons (belias and ifrit for example). Still, great to see the "return to ivalice" even if it's not 100% ivalice, it's going to be a return in some way. They wouldn't make a logo just for name reference.

Did someone say Viera?

Viera pls *continues to beg for the rest of the expansion*

I'm hoping they add Viera, too. Maybe next expansion. I think the fact they are bringing up Ivalice is a good sign.

Why do FFXII mobs roam Eorzea?
Not even redesigns it's literally them

That is literally the same with most FF games. Its not like Tonberries usually get major redesigns for every game. Or Morbols.

Ivalice in FF14 will be like Crystal tower. A reference worked into the lore, history and story of FF14.

Not exactly because the FFXII models look like direct model rips. The Clockwork Knights in Azsl La still have Pulsian text on them? Is Pulse part of Eorzea?
When is the Pulse raid? Big difference between enemy type and straight up reusing assets so the worlds must be connected somehow.

The Clockwork Knights are created by the Allags. It has nothing to do with FFXIII's world. The same will apply to the Ochu.
Eorzea itself is possibly smaller than FFXII's overall map (if we assume Hume and Hyur's are roughly the same size), which is actually a tiny part of Ivalice itself. Ivalice is too massive to be a part of Hydaelyn.

Because SE is honestly creatively lazy. Same reason they apparently reuse creature and boss designs, classes, etc.

Well this is a fan service game, so that's to be expected, I like it but to say some games aren't connected but then you have direct models rips in the game it gets confusing, Final Fantasy XV has all new designs...? I don't know. They're bringing the FFXIII ochu into the game next patch when we already have Ochu's, that's why I asked if Eorzea is connected to Cocoon or Ivalice.

Not lazy, it actually increases efficiency and diversity.

Lazy is just recoloring existing models. Efficiency is creating a new high-res skins for 3 previously created models and one new model in order to increase the variety of monsters instead of creating 2 new models.
