The game already has dimension hopping in it before they announced this. Yoshida and Fernehawles have both said in two separate interviews (there is even a video of one on these forums) that Xande and the Cloud of Darkness will be in the Crystal Tower raid. That effectively means this raid was ported straight out of FFIII, endgame bosses and all. This is just the "Dragoon" Limit Break hate stirred up all over again, and I'm pretty sure we'll see more of this kind of thing in the future since Yoshida stated he enjoyed cameos and wanted to see more stuff like it in the future. People will either get used to it, or we'll see this kind of rage often.
