The ground is featured in Final Fantasies 1 through 13, and makes a handy cameo in 14 when looking down.

The sky is featured in Final Fantasies 7 through 13, and a guest appearance throughout 14 when looking in the upwards direction.

In all seriousness though,

Cid's story most resembles that of FFVI, even going as far as the intentions of his old home country with relation to Summons.

His pseudonym is even Marquez, the last name of Cid from FFVI.

ff-8, the flying one-eyed-monster in dzemael darkhold uses a skill named "Eyes On Me"

So I was doing the lv30 main quest in Lower La Noscea near the windmills and it took me to a duty where I tried to destroy a big boulder before the other guy destroyed his small one.

The battle music was from a previous FF, but I am not sure which XD. Sounds like one of the earlier FFs, but not sure exactly which. (May have been II, dunno if anyone remembers).

Also, and very important: after I finished the duty and I just as I was talking to the miller npc (who magically appeared after finishing duty), I started to hear music that is very similar to CHRONO TRIGGER's Zeal Theme!!!

My god, the second I heard it, I ran here to and to youtube to make sure I wasn't dreaming. So fcking awesome that Square-Enix puts references to Chrono Trigger. my god lol

In "The Scions of the seventh dawn" , the "Scion" is a reference to the summons in Final fantasy XII.

Scions are basically a recurring name for Summons in Ivalice.

In the lv50 Paladin class quest, the first part has you fighting an ogre and a floating eye. The eye uses "Level 5 Petrify," which is a nod to all past level-based spells, which would only affect the enemy if their level was a multiple of the spell name. (all multiples of 5 for this one, which of course covers the required Lv50 for this quest)

You missed the ship graveyard and siren fight from ff5.h

[ShinrinCole]

Hehe, The level 42 quest that requires you to do the siren battle in the ship grave yard. It's a reference to FFV, early game, you go to a ship grave yard, and the boss of the area is Siren.
