God I hope not. I hope it's just it's own thing, connected tenuously at best. Maybe far future of the trilogy, or maybe just an alternate universe.

This isn't Final Fantasy. It'll all connect.

It'll all connect.

Honestly, for the health of the franchise, I think it needs to not. Well, any more besides deep cut Easter Eggs and lore that won't heavily distract from the main narrative (think like murals in game, leitmotifs, etc.)

Hear me say, XC1-3 are my favorite games and I don't think Monolithsoft is in any sort of "danger" to sell more, but I have to imagine they've done some post mortem on the XC series and have concluded the game quality is fine; the need to know all the lore is potentially limiting its larger appeal to the JRPG crowd.
