So, with all that precedent, it seems to me like even real sticklers for lore shouldn't reasonably have that much opposition to it as a concept in RP, especially in the case of characters from FFXI coming to Hydaelyn.
Anyway, even if you don't like the idea, you can always just not RP with people who're using it in their RP. You'll both find other people you'll get along with better.
Four instances does not make up a "heck of a lot" though. Gilgamesh is a legacy character from another game, and the crossover events are, in order:
1) A godlike figure sending someone to Eorzea for reasons
2) A godlike figure sending herself to Eorzea for reasons
3) The hope of an entire world being sent to Eorzea at the end of the world
Sure, there's precedent for it, but it's precedent featuring extremely powerful or important characters and/or godlike beings willing them to do it in the first place. Could it happen to some random adventurer type? Sure, but we certainly haven't seen any record of Joe Average getting transplanted via deux ex machina effects.
Hell, at the end of the XI crossover with Iroha they even lampshade the fact that the story is completely unbelievable to anyone who wasn't there to witness it.
