What are all the shared locations with Final Fantasy Tactics?

[Kyle G]

FFT is my favorite game in the series. I tried looking at the Final Fantasy wikia to see all the allusions, but it doesn't really list all that much. I'm pretty sure there's more than what the wikia shows.

I'm talking about similar cities, countries, dungeons, items, artifcacts, overall locations, etc. I haven't replayed FFT in a while, so my memory is a bit fuzzy. I was just thinking about Construct 8, a robot you find FFT. And yet I haven't seen a robot in my playthrough of FF12 so far. Was Bhujerba ever mentioned in FFT? You know, things like this. Please share any kind of detail.

Couldn't Rabanastre have been rebuilt on top of Lesalia which could have been built on top of the original Rabanastre?

There could have been a Rabanastre long before Lesalia and people could have built a new Rabanastre to bring back a symbol of the old Occurian world after the dust settled from the War of the Lions. The Lucavi takeover would have definitely been something to bury (and hopefully) forget.

A city named Rabanstre being built on top of the ruins of Lesalia doesn't necessarily mean that FFT predates FFXII. For all we know, the FFXIV Rabanastre could easily not be the same city (or even same area) as the FFXII Rabanastre.

Yes according to cannon, after FFXII, technology moves bacwards, the social structure becomes fixed ending social mobility, everyone adopts the same (false) religion, and the world becomes primitive hell-hole... which makes everything you did in FFXII like TOTALLY worth it... lol!

Ah, come on!


Did you ever play Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic?
None of things you did in KotOR1 and KotOR2 matters for the Original Trilogy and even the Prequels.
You helped Tuskan Raiders to get free water, so they would stop attacking people?
Useless, because they still attack people after thousands of years.

MORE THAN THAT!
The entire Prologue of SW:KotOR just right off SHOVES YOU IN THE FACE, that everything you do may be useless.
All the people you helped on Taris... They all "OBVIOUS SPOILER" when you escape from this planet that gets "OBVIOUS SPOILER"



Either way... it's not THAT depressing.
It's called TIME.

Hell, i'm even enough idiot to make a timeline for Final Fantasy games with loops and splits just for fun.

Exactly why i said earlier take the Ff XIV info with a pinch of salt as it could be tweaked to fit into the Hydaelyn world vs true FFT Ivalician cannon. ;)

Even though ff XIV does have many not so subtle tributes to XII outside of Rabanastre

It's quite clear someone has been overzealous with the Keyblade once again.

SORA!!!

actually, in a not so subtle nod to all the other FF games, the ff xiv main story plot at the end of the Heavensward expansion directly states that 13 other worlds exist along side Hydaelyn and you deal with some individuals that came from one of them. There was also an event where Lightning (from XIII) entered the world during her dimension hopping around XIII-2/3 time frame.

I'm thinking they are making Hydaelyn a crossroads of all the FF games. it'll be interesting to see how it all compiles as time rolls on.

edit add: Also in Ff XIV the Garlean Empire's super battle airship was called the Agrius, close to Agrias which was a unique Knight character you could get in FFT.
