    There's a character in FFX-2 named Shinra, who's descendants go on to develop space travel, and then find the planet of FFVII. The 'humans' in FFVII are really descendants of this Al-Bhed child. The Cetra were the original inhabitants on the planet before the Al-Bhed came. Jenova arrives on the planet only a while before the Al-Bhed, so the Jenova crisis was avoided. That's why the Cetra died out, but the Al-Bhed still lived. Also, the Al-Bhed then go on to found Midgar and the Shinra corp. That's why it's named "Shinra".

    Psssht, everyone knows that Zanarkand used to be called Midgar and that Tidus is the reincarnation of Cloud created by Aerith because Sin was actually created by Sephiroth.

    Also, didn't you know that FF2 was actually the War of the Magi referred to by FF3?! They're direct sequels!



    Please tell me you know I'm joking.

    Edit: Had something completely made up, now hidden but preserved for laughing's sake.

    That's even better. A character named Shinra from FFX-2 implies that their descendants founded Shinra corp.

    Can you present something *canonical* to support that the boy named Shinra was anything more than a reference to FF7?

    More seriously, I suspect that if there's space involved in ARR, it'll be because the players' parties get teleported into space from the crystal tower, or Bahamut's labyrinth. I mean, seriously, why would Bahamut waste his time coming down to Eorzea just to beat up some reckless adventurers?

    yeah, they could send a grup of brave adventurers to check if the moon is actually a moon or another prision for Alexander?

    Been awhile since I played X-2. What do you want clarification on? The connection to VII, or space travel?

    VII reference is easy: Character named Shinra talks about using the Farplane (lifestream) as an energy source (mako). As far as spaceflight, dunno. The Al-bhed are pretty advanced, maybe they discovered/made a spaceship.

    As far as the OP goes, I think the background is symbolic. Maybe it symbolizes the aether/aetherites. I personally believe it's where our characters are. I like to believe we were sent into a crystal stasis (like 13) while we wait for the world to rebuild. Maybe that background symbolizes the inside of a crystal.

    I'm all for FFXIV in space. That means we can take our adventures to other planets! Theres only so many new lands that can be put on eorzia, unles its over 25x the size of earth!

    Dimensions, planets, universes, etc. lets do it.
