Elmer: It was around they time they were discussing the “high fantasy” aspect of FFXIV, and how it would be a more realistic world than FFXI.
Corinth: Then Tanaka tries to think of a comparison he can make and brings up one of my all-time favorite games, Final Fantasy VI!
Elmer: Yes! Final Fantasy VI.

He even says we might see something like Magitek Armor.
Elmer: Yes, that was the part that just made my credit card leap out of the wallet and go, “Where to, sir?” Final Fantasy VI and the possibility of Magitek Armor.
Corinth: Speculation time! Magitek Armor from the distant enemies that fled Eorzea? Or perhaps as one of the methods of transportation?
Elmer: Although, he did make sure to temper his comment with some mumbly qualifiers. “There may, perhaps, be something similar to Magitek Armor possibly, to some extent.” and then the interviewer is like “Well, will there be or not?!”
