Do I have to play any other Final Fantasy games before XVI? (lemmy.world)

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?

Most Final Fantasy entries are either independent of each other, or very loosely connected, even more so on the mainline. Only straight up sequels, prequels and spin offs would potentially require having played earlier titles.
