Preferences for a new world in 6.x, 7.x and beyond

The major loose ends right now I think are:
- Dalmasca... but they'd have to make the Ivalice Raids and Bozja mandatory in order to build an expansion around that, and I don't see that happening;
- The Thirteenth, which would require Warring Triad, the ShB Role Quests and subsequent Void Quests, which would still not be as arduous as Bozja, at least, imo;
- Meracydia has been namedropped a lot (in the Coils of Bahamut, Warring Triad, most recently in the MSQ), and we have the cooperation of the Dragons now too, so it's not out of the question... but whatever story they set there would essentially be entirely new;
Then again they could do...
- Something completely out of nowhere, like ShB was;

The Dalmasca situation was recently addressed in an interview. It seems that Bozja was a pivot from Dalmasca, as they originally wanted the story to continue there, but those working on the Bozja story were unaware that they planned to fix tempering in post-6.0. So a continuation of that story plus a visit to Dalmasca is still very much in the future and they implied a few more plot points need to be covered before picking that thread back up.

And the misinformation about the ending with Lyon and the battlefield notes was intentional too. That was done to create speculation for the future.
