That is the official timeline, though not all of us approve...
Oh cool, never knew it was official. Didn't know FFX and X-2 was officially linked to the same story as VII either though.
Actually, according to the Ultimania's all of the Ivalice titles are connected somehow, though they fail to explain exactly how. Even Vagrant Story and the TA series. How TA1 can possibly be connected to the rest is up to debate and most of the team won't comment on it but TA2 certainly made a clustersmurf for the whole series by connecting TA1 to XII and FFT.
I remember picking up an item in Vagrant Story that 'was rumored to belong to Agrias of the Zodiac Brave Story'.
Its Cloud's vacation home, and he's connected to like everything
Oooh so the lost technology in FFT is the technology from FF12's timeline? :D
The zodiac stones must have shrank too.
And the Viera were extinct T_T
Yes, I thought it was a well known fact that Final Fantasy Tactics and Vagrant Story are the last spots in the Ivalice timeline. In Ivalice, it appears that the future is much less vibrant than the past...
I thought Tactics Advanced was the one linked to XII?
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance takes place in a fantastic version of Ivalice. There is a timeline where every title that takes place in Ivalice is linked to the other games; for example, I previously mentioned that Final Fantasy Tactics and Vagrant Story take place near the end of the timeline and give us a glimpse at the future of Ivalice.
Technically the other titles give us a glimpse of the past of Ivalice, as FFT and VS greatly pre-date them :D
I know that tactics and XII have very little in common. I looked to see if the world was the same but its not. Even the towns are different. Nothing about the story ties them together. I guess its the other games that do this? If so how?
Final Fantasy Tactics and Final Fantasy XII share the same world; however, you are right that the two do not share any geographic locations as they take place in different parts of that world. The Ivalice Alliance and its titles mostly only share some mythology and geography aside from small references.
Don't forget the Lucavi are in both titles, though in a much more muted role in XII. The backstory is still pitch on though.
Vagrant Story also connects both cause Vagrant Story takes place in the Valendian area of Ivalice which is also where Archades is said to be located in XII. Vagrant Story also has a reference to Agrias Oaks as well as a mention of Delita as well in the descriptions of accessories.
