The laptop you posted will preform quite well indeed; though it seems to be completely overkill in terms of Ram.
I would suggest this one personally as an alternative:

Less ram, similar processor, but more video ram and customizable. It's slightly cheaper than the current sale price for the one you linked.
As stated above, though, both of these are essentially desktop replacements. Your lap is going to be on fire if you pump those settings up too high. Additionally, both of them are going to have terrible battery performance while gaming at those high settings.
For what you want to do, I think something like this would do very well:

Smaller, lighter, slightly less powerful, and much cheaper. This is essentially what I have with two-years-newer hardware and it runs FF14 wonderfully.
