The game looks fascinating to me, but I've never played any of the other FF games. I'm aware of the characters in VII, but outside of that, would I need to play any others to play XVI?

That's the best part of Final Fantasy, is that a lot of them don't really interact with eachother unless they are direct sequels and spinoffs (like Dirge of Cerberus for FF VII or FFX-2). At most, there is references and they all do share bits and pieces because they're relatively in a giant universe. Like, you're always going to see Chocobos. Bahamut is always going to be a part of the game in some role. Cid will always come around and vice versa.

But generally, the story will be different, the cast will be different, the mechanics will be different .etc
