It had influence from medieval lore, certainly, as have nearly all the FF games since. FF games however, started having "futuristic" elements as early as IV, but no one started complaining until VII, because VII is evil and oh so cool to hate now and ruined everything in the eyes of those blinded by nostalgia.

tl;dr, etc.
