I’m playing through the remake now and getting intensely anticapitalist vibes

    14 is actually the first and only FF game I've ever played, and every day I find out that another thing in it isn't original, but a callback to another FF game.

    I mean I already knew about the Heavens' Ward/Knights of the Round, but I swear to god is there anything in that game that's actually from that game lol

      Most everything is a reference/callback to a previous FF either in name, design, or on the nose references.

      Tbh it even extends to things outside of the series depending on the localization you're playing with - the English version of the game loves to throw in a reference whenever possible lol. The achievement you get for opening chests in the Treasure Map dungeons? Aqua Gleam Hunter Force. A bunch of Simpsons references here and there, like the PLD job quests.

        It's getting to the point where I'm just assuming everything that isn't a reference to [Not FF] is a reference to FF
