Now that I think about it, Xenoblade would be great for a hunt-focused collab. It's the one part of the game that could perfectly match the most core part of the Xenoblade experience.

Random question - If you could have a crossover between FFXIV and any other video game IP (like how we have with Yokai and Monster Hunter), which video game IP would you choose?



I would go with a Yakuza crossover.

The best MMO Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy XIV, should surely have a crossover with the best Final Fantasy. Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars.

Given Capcom already got the MHW crossover it's a little surprising there hasn't been a Street Fighter one yet, especially given that Ryu is the Traveler.

I had a whole idea about doing Alliance Raids where a WoW villain invades one of the FFXIV starter cities (with an appropriate match between villain and city) with a mysterious man who turns into a bird being the questgiver who is trying to save Eorzea from vague doom.

Limsa invaded by the Scourge (with Lich Queen Jaina), Ul'dah invaded by the (Iron/Blood/Noun) Horde (led by an evil Thrall) and Gridania invaded by the Burning Legion (Fel Queen Azshara featuring Illidan/Malfurion/Tyrande council fight).

I do sorta like the Bozja idea more though.

The real problem with Kingdom Hearts Alliance Raids is that you can't get Org XIII's weapons from that crossover. I'd be down for bonus trial series with say, 3-5 members per trial (Fight Saix backed up by Xion/Roxas/Axel/Vexen for example, you have to use ice pillars made by Vexen to block Saix's attacks, Axel can melt Ice Pillars etc kinda stuff). Obviously ending in Xemnas using the entire organisation as mechanics.

honestly, one of the reasons I like the current set of alliance raids the best is because they're actually just about ff14 and not some other game I care little or not at all about

Not necessarily a full crossover, but I want a Final Fantasy XIV Warriors game. Much like Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity, make it a weird time-travel thing where you take an alternate path through the MSQ only this time you have all the Scions and supporting characters and villains and such, all with wild battlefield abilities. Even Minfilia and Tataru. Especially Minfilia and Tataru.

Honestly in such a spinoff Tataru is the comedy character who fights with accidents and crafting tools, Minfilia is just a carrier for Hydaelyn (Great Fairy Link but not as demeaning).

Tataru's either the weakest or strongest character. There's no chance she's anywhere in between, either she's an unwieldy mess like Zant, or utterly absurd like Marin.

i really want a kingdom hearts collab with organization outfits as an all-class glamour. plus basically all the org 13 members have an ff job equivalent, you could do those for weapon glams

Xemnas: RDM
Xigbar: MCH
Xaldin: DRG
Vexen: PLD
Lexaeus: DRK
Zexion; SMN
Saix: WAR
Axel: DNC
Demyx: BRD
Luxord: AST
Marluxia: RPR
Larxene: NIN
Roxas: SAM

you could use some of the KH3 org members for the other jobs, like Vanitas for GNB maybe.

I'd swap Saix and Lexaus but otherwise yeah this is pretty accurate. A different keyblade for GNB would work. Zexion obviously covers Summoner and Scholar. You could also just make appropriate looking weapons from scratch using the existing visual guides for the Org weapons. They're pretty basic shapes with a single element magical theming after all.

Putting Org 13 in FF14 would be a bit tacky and odd since I couldn't unsee the Ascians as Great Value Org 13 until Shadowbringers. :v:

"This raids antagonists are a bunch of blackrobed pathos magnets with names you won't remember until you've deep dived the series and learned to tell them apart past hairstyle. They do evil things because reasons."

Now fighting Pete and Disney Hades, that'd be a hoot. Maleficent would loving kill it as a voidsent queen.

The KH original characters are easier for Square to negotiate access to than the actual disney characters. Also them being similar to Ascians would be part of the humour.

Edit: Not that I disagree with the enjoyment of Pete/Hades/Maleficent. If I was to do this as an Alliance Raid Series I'd probably go Heartless villains raid 1, Org XIII Nobodies raid 2 (fought in 3 groups of 4 and Xemnas on his own with everyone else as backup). Then do the Disney Villains last.

In a pie in the sky world I'd probably do it

Alliance Raid 1: End of the World

Boss 1: Darkside
Boss 2: Guard Armor/Opposite Armor
Boss 3: Kurt Zisa or Phantom (either or works)
Boss 4: Ansem Seeker of Darkness

Alliance Raid 2: Castle Oblivion

Boss 1: Hades
Boss 2: Jafar
Boss 3: Maleficent
Boss 4: Marluxia (with Larxenne, Vexen, and Lexaeus)

Alliance Raid 3: Castle That Never Was

Do some of the org members as non-boss 'trash.' Like with Demyx you mostly can just do his add phase a couple times then have him die, you don't need a full boss fight with him. Same with Luxord and his gambling minigames.

Boss 1: Xigbar
Boss 2: Axel
Boss 3: Roxas
Boss 4: Xemnas


but of course they'd never be able to actually do the disney villains, they couldn't even put them as background cameos in smash. Probably make Raid 2 Castle That Never Was and make Raid 3 Scala ad Caelum.

KH collab would be cool but I sorta think it’s a bad fit for a raid series since it’s most iconic fights are all just guys. The big heartless bosses are probably the most suited for a raid but a darkside is way less cool than an org member.

Do want a keyblade glam though.

Endorph
Jul 22, 2009

its kind of interesting because ansem does do the 'start as guy, turn into big monster' thing thatd make him work for a raid boss but most of the other KH final bosses do the opposite. like you have the big shmup section with xemnas where hes a giant armored monster and then you have a lightsaber fight with him in the void where hes just a dude.

SyntheticPolygon
Dec 20, 2013

Boat ansem def feels like the best final raid.

Armored Xemnas and Xehanort would probably be fine too though if you just scale them up. I might not have given it enough credit.

And final SB raid shows they can get pretty creative with making regular humans into raid bosses

Put the triple xehanort fight into an alliance raid, a tank for Xemnas, a tank for Ansem, lovely teen Xehanort swapping in when one goes down, and make the tanks do a mash event to protect the party from Xemnas's laser dome.

I suppose they could do the Thunder God Cid thing and have "okay how about you're giant and you have a tail that's also a head holding a sword in its mouth"
