I'm gonna call this one... Fake. Everyone knows that FF14 is no where near what it needs to be for people to be satisfied with it. Is it pretty? Sure, but that's really all it has going for it right now. If you look at metacritic nearly every reviewer (Professional and user) rate it as "nice to look at" and having "lots of potential". Potential does not an epic adventure make.

Besides SE knows that if it's worried about money all it has to do is drop a remake of ff7 and there will be Dev funds coming out their rears.
