Minfilia and F'lhaminn was the canon V1.00 connection to the 2.0 game. Thancred, Y'shtola and Yda&Papalymo basically got upgraded to Angst, Blind, Dead and Dead. Also don't forget everyone who died just before Cid is re-discovered.

The problem I see is that the game can't really introduce anyone else as it cuts screen time (and voice acting budget) from the rest of the cast. That's why the job quests have no voice acting. Unless another race is found, anyone else with the "echo" is likely to not be discovered within Eorzea or Othard. The way the Au ra race was introduced into the game (by having Yugiri masked) was at best clumsy.

And I'm still annoyed how Papalymo was thrown under the bus, it didn't feel like a dramatic sacrifice, it felt like "I was fired".
