Recycling monsters is a staple. Whole hog ripping the models from previous games isn't a staple.

Play any Final Fantasy game and monsters will look similar but rarely will they look the exact same. the FFXI monsters they recycle are clearly using the same skeletons and textures as their FFXI counterparts it's uncanny, the only thing they don't bring over is the mobs skillset they keep the move names sometimes but nerf the effects for the purposes of this game. Bommtoss for example is just a thing that does AOE damage now instead of something to be feared.
