I have been civil and read everyone ones Opinion, and didn't like Tancred's first post because it was short, and didn't offer insight his second was an opinion on not liking "from another world" aspect. He didn't come at me with credible difficulties, or supportive fact based reasoning as to why it's an ill advised recommendation. It was simply "I just don't like it. So it's ridiculous." His Superman comment is merely a backpedaling statement. Cause clearly if I got the "Â ol' thumbs up" as you claim Tancred we wouldn't need a debate on right or wrong good idea or bad. I'd simply be.... "Right on go for it."
No...no, no, Tancred isn't at fault for people showing up and telling you "Hey, bruh. Probably don't." People express their own viewpoints all the time, it's not like he's turned this all against you, or...whatever it is you're getting at.
What are you getting at, by the way?

My point exactly.

Because it's a franchise, and they leverage familiarity and references to make fans happy. The Lightning crossover event is pretty prime there. This, however, was highlighted as something special, and we were shown the precise extent of it. It doesn't mean that Cocoon and Eorzea are the same place.

Certainly. What can I clarify for you? Also, is english your first language? If not, I can use fewer metaphors. Here, let's try this:
Dimension hopping for no good reason just makes your reader not want to read any further/not want to invest in what you're writing. Is there some gravely important reason, other than your unfamiliarity with the setting, that your story needs a character from another world?
If there isn't, then I would suggest you scrap the idea, google a few things about the setting you'll be playing in, and start from there. If there is, please, share with us.
On physics and back pats: Yo, seeking people who agree with whatever it is you do at all times is brain poison. We only get to be right after being wrong a million and one times, and adjusting to it. We learn through failure, and that means experiencing it in it's entirety, not running to the nearest friendly face and trying to ignore information we don't like.
Let me know if I can be any more clear. I'm being sincere here, I want you to fully understand what I'm attempting to convey.
