    the game just references some of the older games.
    If FF12 is = FF14 because of Dalmasca and ivalice references then its part of FF6 because Doma is from that game.....

    To be fair here, FF12/T is probably the most overt reference. As the story for the 24 man basically hints that the story of FFT came from the play that Jenomis eventually debuted to clear his family name and give the story of Ramza a 'happier' ending than fate and previous propaganda had seen fit.

    However even then it follows pretty much every other FF reference in 14. Where they take similar story beats if anything at all, and try to slather a fresh coat of paint onto them to make the concept work within it's new confines. Doma's actually a pretty good example of that. Hien is basically Cyan if you dig into his name origins and even shares the same theme with the iconic character, and given where the current MSQ happens to be headed it's very likely we're going to see a repeat of the 'poison' incident some time in the future. Sans insane laughing clown of course.

    Solus is probably hammy enough to be the Kefka analogue. He chews the scenery every time he appears, and it's great.
