If FFXVII is a new online game... would you move inmediately?

There's a few here and there trying to revive the classic MMO formula (Pantheon, AOC etc.), but it remains to be seen how well they do. Certainly for SE, based on what Yoshi has said before (here and here), he does seem to think any future MMO would be more in the direction of an action-based, lobby style game.

Oh hello no on the lobby style game

^Ditto, I miss those aspects of WoW.

If his thoughts are reflective of the general sentiment in SE about their next MMO (and I imagine they are), it'd be such a different beast to the type of MMO XIV is, and in the wrong direction, AFAIC. I don't mind action-based MMOs, although I prefer traditional tab target MMOs because with many of the action ones the combat feels too flighty, flashy and low impact. The lobby-based aspect though just kills the social element of it for me.
