All FF's not in the same universe?

Tin foil hats on and join the 'theyre all in the same universe' club.

Not that i believe it myself and it would be a mess, but the recurring crystals and LR's ending would sort of support that theory
They're all in the same multiverse, and some games are in the same universe, on different planets (such as FFVII and FFX).
That's just a lot of fan speculation. If anything it's just reoccuring themes for them. I highly doubt they're connected at all. The only theory for 7 and 10 was because one NPC in 10.

If anything, the only ones really connected are 2 and 4 since you see Kain as a kid, his father is a dragoon, and he says when he grows up he wants to be. That and a place called Missidia is in both.

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.

Believe what you want, but it's been explicitly stated out-of-game that 7 and 10 take place in the same universe.

The whole multiverse thing is more of a highly probable theory, though, I'll give you that.

Has it really? Link me to something on that? I'm not doubting you, just curious.

The Ultimanias haven't been fully translated, so I can't really link you to them. Here's the summary, though:
Quote
In Final Fantasy X-2, a member of the Gullwings named "Shinra" proposes the concept of extracting the life energy from within the planet Spira. In the Final Fantasy X-2 Ultimania guidebook published by Square Enix, Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy X-2 scenario writer Kazushige Nojima stated that the character Shinra and his proposal are a deliberate nod to the Shinra Company of Final Fantasy VII, and also revealed that he envisioned the events of Final Fantasy X-2 as a prequel to those in Final Fantasy VII. This connection had previously been hinted toward by Kitase and lead Final Fantasy developer Yoshinori Kitase during an interview in the Final Fantasy X Ultimania Omega guidebook, and was again detailed in the Final Fantasy VII Ultimania Omega β€” two other official publications of Square Enix.

They said those Ivalice worlds aren't connected. I thought they were too but the technology and everything is completely different.

It was at different time periods was my understanding. They have to be connected if they're all set in the same place.

Coulda swore just recently reading they said they're only connected in name and only name.

But you're probably right, I'll look it up again soon.

All you need to know is that everyone is fucked forever, except maybe the Tau.

Except not, because there is some fucked up powerful shit hiding everywhere in that universe.

Dark Souls because I have a hard-on for tragedy.
Next would be Mass-Effect or Elder Scrolls because I've always adored the concept of multiple intelligent races living side by side.

I neither fear, nor despise.
As bad as the game and lack of lore IN-GAME is, Destiny has some incredible lore to it.
You just..........have to read it.

The stories behind "The Last Word" and "Thorn"?
The Vault of Glass and the Guardian who made the relics you use in it?

If only they put that stuff in the game.

I gotta say Megami Tensei, even though I just sort of got into it. Very intriguing franchise. Very unwelcoming, too.

All those stories and you chose the weebiest.

When I was younger, it was Zelda.

These days, I find Halo and Mass Effect to be the most compelling. Assassin's Creed used to be compelling, but Ubisoft strayed from their narrative prowess, I think they forgot how to properly write a game.

I thought the locust were the original inhabitants of the planet  ho went underground for whatever reason and just wanted it back.
The only problem about this is when the CoG went under ground we and they seen no locust kids or traces of them.

Gears of War. There's just so much lore thats untouched.(and well pretty much everything you said OP)
That's why I wish it was a story based game or book series. The lore to it is too mysterious and deep for it to be handled like this. When the queen lost her locust instead of her having a fit about it she instead acted like she doesn't care. Shit like that is why I wish the lore was being handled in something else. I know there are books for the game but the more important things were being handled by the games which to me they butchered it.

The Rage....
Warframe, im a sucker for Sci-Fantasy. And while the games lore is still expanding, its already so incredibly gripping to me.
Spoiler
Some have walked these desolate worlds while you have slept. Some like me. I remember what you did. I remember the day.
The Tenno appeared at the Terminus, gleaming and victorious. Our cold and gold Emperors, breathless, bathed you in savior's silk. Then came the sound. Across all our worlds, all at once, the ceremonial Naga drums. A royal salute to the honored Tenno. Ten solemn beats to declare the suffering was over. I watched from a distance, with the rest of the low Guardians. With each beat terror began to crush my throat. The Tenno were not stoic and silent. They were waiting. They were poised. I tried to call out but only a strangled whisper escaped.

When the ninth beat rang a torrent of blood filled the stadium, loosed by Tenno blades. The drums, the Empire, fell silent forever.

Now I hunt, dividing your numbers. Watching from that dark place, cataloging your sins, I am the ghost of retribution. You may forget but you are not innocent.  -Stalker     
That game had a story? >.>

In a similar way that Dark Souls has. You gotta observe all the different tilesets and read weapon, enemy etc descriptions for the lore.
