Oh crap! We got someone pulling at semantics here!

My point stands extremly firm, Final Fantasy has never been popular for rehashing it's past games or storylines. The only cross-over that Square Enix is likely to do wont span far from Kingdom hearts and it's ill-fated Disidia titles. (Great fighting games by the way) Just poorly received.

I'm not saying it can't be done, but I can guarantee a main titled Final Fantasy game will never, be a multiverse-rehash. I will eat my shoes otherwise.

Every game in the main numbered series has been set in vastly different worlds often with vastly different gameplay. Some cross-over cameos have always been a staple of the series but straight out tearing them from other universes has never and probably never will be a mainstay in the main series.

Even if pulled off it would be neigh impossible to please the series fans, what happens when fan backlash about who is a better character Squall or Cloud, or Locke! Who is the more powerfull villain Sephiroth or Kefka? How about that Ex-Death.

SE would be wise to not touch these debates with a thousand foot poll as you can upset your fan-base far to easilly with this. A fighting game is one thing because it doesn't really show one character as more powerfull than another, but a MMO?
What happens when Sephiroth is the 50cap final boss of the current story. Few years down the road they raise the level cap and now Kuja is the big bad-endgame boss. People will Roflstomp Sephiroth and fans will rage.

It's just a terrible, terrible idea in my honest opinion.
