Thanks for the link!This is very interesting...

The worlds of FFX and FFVII are just different worlds. That's the only connection they have, being in the same universe. It doesn't affect their storylines at all (i.e., you can't connect everything in FFX to VII and vice-versa).

But anyway,

I've heard rumors that FFX is tied in with FFVII. Something about X being a sequel to VII or whatnot. It kind of made sense to me when the character aptly named "Shinra" in X-2 was speaking of a way to draw energy from the planet. ::cough:: Mako ::cough:: But, I was actually surprised about the somewhat subtle references to X throught Dirge of Cerberus.

Shalua. The first thing I thought when I saw her was Auron. Her arm was hanging out of one sleeve and one of her eyes was closed shut. The physical resemblance was uncanny. Not that her personality matched his, but the exterior qualities were just eerie.

Nero. He reminded me of Anima so much. The arms crossed over each other and his face being wrapped in bandages, or whatever it is his face is covered in. Plus, him making people disappear with the darkness made me think of Anima blinking people out of existance.

Now, those two I doubt have an actual connection between the two games. I just thought that they were both interesting. The one other thing I noticed, however, does seem like it would connect VII and X.

When you are on the Shera, you can speak to different crew members. One of the crew members tells you that the Shera was actually some old technology that they salvaged. This technology doesn't run on Mako, but some unknown source. Automatically, I thought about the airships in FFX. I haven't played that game in a while, but I know that the airships in that game did not run off of Mako. So, maybe the airship was some pre-catastrophic machine (or machina, in this case) that was present during X era.


These are all things that I have been think about, as of late. Anybody have anything they would like to comment on or add?

No.

ok....think about it.the four feinds are in FF1. the four feinds are in FF1.they can have some similarites.

[atlanteay]

haven't they already admitted that ffx and ffvii are related?!?! ShinRa from x-2 came to Gaia (ff7) and became the ancestor of president shinra after years rufus came along with cloud and co.

Mild Connections whilst not direct.

totally differant universes dont allow them to be a direct relation.

As much as it might seem implausible that VII and X are connected to so many of you, it has been officially stated that they do in fact take place in the same universe. However, I do not believe that the Shera in DoC is one such connection. It is my belief that it is just a cameo. Remember in FFI, you had to dig up an airship that ran off of some unknown technology? Well, I think that they just put a similar thing in DoC nothing more.

Hell, if you wanted to use that as a connection, you might as well say that all of them are connected. After all, every single FF game either mentions Cid in conjunction with airships, or actually has him as a character that flies airships. Anyways, to sum up, VII and X are connected, it's official. Spirans are pre-Gaians. Nomura and Kitase said it, so get over it if you don't like it.
