I agree with that.. futuristic is nice but going old school wouldn't hurt it, either.
Just reminds you of all the other futuristic games out there now and not the distinguishable "Final Fantasy".
Distinguishable? Almost every RPG ever made has been medieval. And Final Fantasy wasn't even the first to do so. All Final Fantasy did to make it stand out was, after FFI, to mix futuristic technology with medieval weaponry and setting. FF 1-6, 9-12, 14 and the Tactics series have all done this. 7 series, 8 and 13 series are the only exceptions where they've got futuristic technology
and setting with medieval weaponry.
Futuristic is far less touched upon. Xeno-series, Mass Effect and Star Ocean have been the only notable futuristic RPGs that I can think of.
