Like i know it's one of the most famous "lost projects" ever, but honestly it becoming XV made more sense to me than it staying an XIII game
if an FF is tied to the same world, they'll all be under that number umbrella, like X-2 being a direct sequel in the same world as X.
Yet Versus XIII shared none of the characters or world of XIII. It was literally it's own FF in its own universe. Nothing about Lightning, Cocoon, Pulse etc.
Was the extremely loose FNC connection really enough to break the naming conventions like that?
