The problem with that statement is that it's just wishful thinking and I wouldn't be surprised if you could find a similar type of statement towards the end of development for the last few FF games.
The reason RPG games are a dying breed is because:
- They take a lot of time because they are expected to have a lot of varied content
- They take a lot of time because they are expected to make a game that stays interesting for 100+ hours
- They take a lot of time because they are expected to be full of the best looking eye candy ever
Anyone who thinks these games with the budget and scope of the usual FF games should take the same amount of time as any other game while keeping the same bar is insane.
