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?

Damn, thanks for listing it out.

What's the context behind the cid thing though, why cid in particular?

AFAIK, nobody knows why exactly, they just do this thing, that in each game there's a character named Cid who is (most of the time) related to tech in some way. Same for Biggs and Wedge - they aren't in each game, but they always come in pair. When there's Biggs - there's always Wedge. They could do completely random roles, usually not major ones, but it's just a recurring element

I'm immeasurably disappointed in XVI for naming a pair of characters Tyler and Wade rather than Biggs and Wedge.
