Final Fantasy 16 vs Final Fantasy 15 - 15 BIGGEST DIFFERENCES

[@Kaioko_Kerm]

Noctis was my boi but XVI had clearer development path. Square Enix tried to do too much with XV

[@ghintz2156]

XV went through an absolutely insane development hell. I still want that game presented from the original trailer for XIII Versus or whatever it was originally called.

[@mantraki]

More probably ​2, the game was scraped so many times they had to rework the combat and other stuff completely because of a. The poor reception of the Nova crystalis stuff and b. The changes in the engine.@Wong_Shen

[@lucas.lagoriaa]

​@Wong_Shen I dont think that. FF is the greatest franchise Square Enix has, I cant think a reason of why the would save a lot of budget in a NUMBERED GAME, that are the most important games in franchise. Anyway FF16 is being developed since 2015, so its 8 years of development, fair amount of time imo

[@CrayonEater2003]

Key word: "Realistic" Stylized graphics are great

[@natebroadus8474]

FFXVI feels like a return to form--a pre-FFVII form. It's not ATB, or Turn-based, but the aesthetic is right out of the early FF games. I see so much of the early games in FFXVI, especially FFII and FFIV. I think the only way to get out of the shadow of FFVII is to remind people that the FF legacy started much earlier, and I think that's what this game is trying to do.

[@ItsNummy6969]

You know I really loved the character designs of FFXV and actually enjoyed playing it throughout my whole play through. It was graphically beautiful stunning and I was always left in awe not too mention Noctis powers to me was the most bad ass and unique from other FF games like the dude can WARP! Thats bending space and time and moving through like a GOD! I feel like he was very underrated and unappreciated. Anyways I just wish that the combat development was better bc XVI looks extremely promising and having it be the same developer as DMC5 really gives me hype! I wish they couldve chose that dmc team for xv cause it wouldve been a hit! Oh well. I hope one day they’ll be a remake of XV but the day will never come 😂

​@@randalthor6872"is it woke???" You are cringe af

[@mrpanicattack6688]

I think one of the problems with 15 is the inconsistency of their character designs. Like the characters that appears in the movie kingsglaive like Luna, looks very different in the actual game. And in the game itself, there are some cutscenes where Luna looked like a different person that doesn’t match the game and the movie. I honestly prefer her look in the movie, she looked like a real person. Another one is Noctis face, he just looks different as a teen compared to his adult bearded face and long haired. It’s like his face went from looking like a teenage Asian to complete European as an adult haha 😆😂 I honestly like his adult version more with the long hair and beard! I thought it was badass! I think that Noctis adult/older version should’ve been longer in the game. I kinda like the post apocalypse vibes, it reminded me of final fantasy 6.

[@mhiggs8001]

I agree the character design differences was very noticeable across the varied mediums the universe was spread across. I liked movie Luna best too.

[@big.gib.4L]

15 really felt like it couldn't pick a theme, it felt like it was half-assing all aspects of the worldbuilding and lore. I couldn't really get into it with the clash between old world kingdoms and the modern day themes

[@mahagnosis]

this could be avoided if ffxv were only a single game. not multimedia crap

[@dman5501]

I am an old FF fan and I habe to go with FF XV, I don't like to be told where to go all the time and play so linear. So even if XV was 'unfinished' I still enjoyed it a lot more than XVI. Final Fantasy genre always contains some kind of exploration and looting and dungeouns. In FF XVI you literary watching a movie with 5min game play, and without any bustling cities to visit. No minigames. Too few items (and how you build them) Everything is like running down a simple road and get pointed out like a dummy where to go consistently. I don't know, I just don't feel it at all. Witcher 3 and God of War are way better battle wise

[@bobjilesen8450]

Agreed

[@klumaverik]

I truly believe that if people don't like xv then it's because they couldn't thoroughly work the battle system. I loved ffxv so much. I beat it and wasn't too happy with it. But my 2nd and third play through years later was by far more enjoyable. Learning how to use team attacks and blindsides on demand made it so much better.

I'm pretty sure everyone whose ever heard of Final Fantasy versus XIII still want it. The development of the game was absolute hell. BTW, anyone in 2023 playing Ffxv?

[@journeytrials]

Truth!! Versus is what we wanted!!

[@alexandroswashere3089]

I started playing this year finally. i just got at the city that looks like Venice.

[@clydeines8548]

Back here after 3 weeks. Maybe versus XIII is pretty much impossible now but that's OK. They just need to make the game to be a little bit more of a challenge. I mean like, ardyn really just be standing there while noctis is literally blitzing him his armiger. I think changing the altissia battle arc gameplay would do well. They don't have to change the arc's story, just change the gameplay experiences and make it a bit more intense. One thing is also the warping graphics. If you've seen the trailers or the movie kingsglaive, you'd see how beautiful the warping seems. In the game, noctis just throws his weapon the ground and "dashes" to it. In the movie and trailers, when the user warps, they to teleport to it and blue explosion particle would appear. The warping graphics looks kinds boring.

[@ilonaramazanova6940]

The FF15 characters were more relatable. I love Noctis's LaBoutins and the way they had to visit diners after hunts. They looked like some goth club hopper kids (so royal ❤). FF16 was totally different stylistically and the melancholy element was somewhat lacking. Though, the gameplay was engaging and I think the game was longer. I think they should completely remake FF6 in this similar style. It's one of my favorites because the story is very classic....Also, does anyone know what happened to the original trailer that was released for FF16? Seems, it had nothing to do with the game.

[@mh0Ang95]

For me, one thing is for sure, FFXV had the much better soundtrack. Felt more impactful and sets the mood throughout the game

[@Sasori.OfTheRedSand]

15 for me all the way

[@jamestan220]

Woa...Good thing U mention this atm. I am replaying 15 on X at 4K and OMG it was and is masterpiece. It feels brand new the royal edition for next gen! U appreciate the works it went thru though. I hope 16 able to surpass it. Graphic wise, 15 is superb and it is smooth fps next gen deserved.

it is, as it seems, it will stay exclusive for 6 months but who knows...

[@Wolfspyder5]

Played both, I still like 15 way more.

[@mouadelmoujaddidi6580]

An important difference is that FF16 has a beautiful sense of cinematography, camera works and acting, while FF15 had way less focus on that. From the acting to cinematography, it felt really amateur-ish, as if someone was recording the scenes with their mobile phone and the actors (Noctis & friends) were inexperienced Since the fantasy is important in the franchise, FF16's great cinematography will really help into portraying it well

[@Astraldymensions]

I think the acting worked overall but I super agree about the camera work. And it's weird because FF usually has pristine camera work that makes it feel cinematic for story cutscenes. It also has this weird thing about avoiding depth of field almost in it's entirity or switching camera lens. I'm sure it's a aesthetic choice but I always felt it worked to it's deficit

[@IEMprod.]

Think this is the first time someone else has said this for FFXV, loved the game but always thought the cutscenes were lacking especially compared to previous games in FF and FFVII Remake.

[@wandinugraha4310]

Im not really feeling the main protagonist in 16 , Noctis was really appealing to me as well as Cloud. Clive is okay but not as appealing as previous ff protagonist such as cloud and Noctis

[@hugoruela9226]

Clive is way better than Noctis though. Personality wise, character development and so.on. Cloud isn't also the best example of protagonist at least not on the original game ( he's better on the remake) yet you have protagonists that are better.

[@francisco7xj]

I am going to say it..... 15 has by far better end game content than 16 and its more fun to play it after you beat it. 16 i didn't even touch it in fantasy mode there's no reason to unless you just want the trophy

[@ThaNinjazTube]

The Biggest Difference: Completely different development studio with little to no overlap is people involved in creating it. There being a large amount of differences is not that strange. Even though, they are both Final Fantasy games, in essence it would be the same as comparing it to God of War or Horizon. Different studio, different people, different experience.

I have played every FF including the ones on handhelds and mmos(still playing) and I'm playing FF16 now. It earned the mainline series title for me. One thing I would've changed tho would be the character developments and their relationship progression. Some parts feel a bit rushed and some big moments feel unearned. I think they tried to remedy this with the active time lore and it helps a little bit but, still would've preferred they slowed this down a bit. Even with all the cutscenes and general feeling of you're not actually playing, instead watching a cinematic experience with a sprinkle of ARPG elements thrown in.

Ff15 was good in attaching you to the characters but was basically lowered by listening to fans(still a good game) and had dlcs to fulfill the story but canceled the best ones,but is basically insecure and unsure. Ff16 had a good story and more ways to make your own combos, was a complete story, and is basically confident to cocky because they listened to themselves. When they make 17 they literally just need to add the comrades system and dynamic of 15(also with team attacks)with everything else 16 has already and it will be PERFECT 👌

Final fantasy 15 by far is way better than 16 because of the open world.

Final Fantasy 16 should of been done after Noctis has been king, Ardin returns for his revenge on Noctis and the kings glave. That story like could of been more intense knowing Ardin is cursed to live forever even after the Ring of Lucas had disappeared a new ring could of been forged to stay with Noctis. On 15 when Noctis defeated Ardin and the ring disappeared at a small scene where Noctis gets married to Lunafreya, everything resets itself as if it never happened. So Ardin is still alive, looking dethrone the king of Lucas

[@GOLFWANG_WANGAA]

unlike FFXV the dev team know what they want with FF16

If only Tetsuya Nomura wasn't doing two games at the same time and just focuses on one project...

[@Force-Multiplier]

Noumura didn't direct XV nor VXI lol (not complaining im thankful but the poor guy gets blamed for everything) he isn't involved with XVI and he was only involved with XV in the early stages (wich is why it took so long but the 10 years wait are actually what saved FFXV from being a Cyberpunk 2077 or a Fallout 76 considering how bad Luminous engine is)

this will be the first final fantasy game i play, i never got into xv because it just wasn’t my thing but this looks really great.

I heard that the Royal Edition completes the XV and removes the gripes people had. Is it true? (Please only respond if you played that edition)

Well royal edition was basically all the dlc and the game for one small price but yea you were able to play as the other characters but only in combat

it definitely does, most people haven’t played the dlc

Kinda pointless to compare XVI and XV, they have literally nothing in common besides being part of the same series and XVI coming after XV in the sequence. Everything else is different. Different teams, different direction, different approach to pretty much everything.

[@tripleO16]

FF 16 is the most next-gen game we have right now but red dead probably still beats it at details

[@willowingwhispers2612]

I mean, the fact ffxvi will have a complete story at launch and both the story and characters were the devs top priority already made it leagues better than ffxv. Anything else is just the icing on the cake.

[@ACameronUK]

…not that this really means anything in the grand scheme of things but I think XV has the more impressive visuals - which is odd 🤔

[@takerukurosawa2337]

XV and forspoken is developed with luminous engine and that's why when the game came out it was buggy and unfinished but FF16 engine is an upgraded engine of ff14 so the FF16 and 14 engine is more polished

[@ACameronUK]

@fusajiro446 at the end of the day it’s not that important - the visuals aren’t what will make it a good or bad game, like everything else it will be about the story the characters and the gameplay…I just thought it was interesting being as this is technically a full generation ahead of XV in terms of technology etc.

[@takerukurosawa2337]

@@ACameronUK if that was the case it could've been on PS4 but it's only on PS5

[@ACameronUK]

@@takerukurosawa2337 well that’s true - but for all we know if could have been possible for the game to run on PS4, putting it on PS5 may be just a marketing decision. I mean looking at the footage in this video and to me at least it looks extremely similar to the image quality of FFXV, some of the environments in that game still look pretty amazing in fact. Again though, the way it looks has no bearing on whether or not it’s a great game - it’s just interesting that’s all 🙃

[@7dayspking]

The graphics look superior to me in FFXVI. Especially environments(the density, complexity and fidelity), lighting and the complexity of scenes/views in general. Character models looked very good in FFXVI. Really good art. I can see the demanding things like hair are more complex in FFXVI though.

[@marikohayashi3845]

I love Clive, sweet Clive but Noct will always be my boy xD And even as I play other FF's, i still find myself intuitively trying to warp. I freaking love warping to bits and its shame its not in more games. Its so addictive to see Noct phasing and if im not wrong, his warp animation differs weapon to weapon. Its so cool. FFXV may have needed a lot more time to cook (the 10 year development only had 2-3 years of actual game making time), but this game is special, I love it warts and all. Its got so much soul in it! And that ending...so poignant and beautiful. I really really love the original ending T.T As much as i want something happier, the base game ending was much more impactful and tied up Noct's growth beautifully.

[@thewise_1one856]

Final Fantasy 15, does let you go back to the open world at the final chapters. You jst have to find the dog that allows you to go back.

[@kpacf]

ff 15 required 3 mediums and dlc's to become complete. a short anime, a cgi movie, and the additional content added on later to completely understand and get the full story. it was always incomplete on its own

[@Lenrom12]

As crazy as it sounds I liked FF15 better even though the story was an absolute disgusting mess, because it was my first final fantasy 😭. FF16 forsure a better game in my opinion but I loved FF15. I’m also crazy but I feel like FF15 looked better!

[@valleybiitch]

its so crazy to think that ffxv is 7 years old now

Noctis is hotter and for me the 15 story and overworld were way more interesting. Only wasted potential unfortunately and they did not finish the dlcs

[@lankeysob]

I loved FFXV so if they take that formula and improve upon it FFXVI should be great

[@UltraMercury]

FFXV could’ve been the best FF, sadly all that time to not have everything inside the game kinda made it scale lower…and once they stopped with wanting to continue making content, it could never reach the heights it could’ve went…

[@supremeoverlorde2109]

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I like FFXV more than FFXVI. I don't deny that FFXVI is very well polished, and that the story is structured in a far more organized way. It's also clear that FFXVI had a much clearer vision of what it wanted to be, and I respect that a lot. But these points don't necessarily make it a more fun or enjoyable experience. While FFXV is very flawed, overall it's a game I've had a blast with. I beat the main story in about 42 hours and then went back and poured 90+ more hours into other side content and endgame content. The chocobros simply stole my heart, and I'm actually replaying it now after having put it down for about two years. I put about 60 hours into FFXVI last year and have honestly thought about it very little since I put it down. I liked it---even teared up a bit at the end. But in retrospect, I feel a bit dispassionate about it. I found the gameplay variety lacking and the leveling system less satisfying compared to other games I've played. I also got very quickly got burned out by the massive amounts of superfluous dialogue for every side quest. And I had a few other various issues with the story and characters that just brought down the experience for me to varying degrees. I know XV has a lot of detractors, but I love it warts and all and imo FFXVI just isn't as fun to play.

[@seant1861]

Thanks for the video I loved 15 and this video has ensured I don't waste money on 16

[@Wolfqueen007]

I love how Clive looks like post-apocalypse Noctis only even older and more mature. And with an accent for some reason

[@FandomShipper]

I would say one thing missing is the romance story since most Final Fantasy titles often have some romance in play. Final Fantasy 15 was Noctis and Lunafreya while with 16 far as the protagonist not entirely sure if there is a romance story or not. However if there is perhaps it will end far less tragic than that of Final Fantasy 15 did. Another thing was mode of transportation given in Final Fantasy 15 you do a lot of traversing in the Regalia while with 16 it looks like you are warping about to each region. It does look like the Chocobo is back in this game so that is something the two games share. It also looks like this is another title where the male is the main protagonist, like, how many Final Fantasy titles alone have the male as the main character? I'm just saying the last time a female was the lead was what Lightning Returns? Anyway those were just some things I thought of while watching this video.

[@randalthor6872]

Biggest difference is it's not a Final Fantasy game anymore it's God of War with chocobos. The story is phenomenal and the only reason I'm forcing myself to play this stupid button mashing action game. Final Fantasy games used to be my favorite games of all time but the path this franchise has taken completely gutting the game of all RPG elements in favor of being another God of War clone to sell more copies truly breaks my heart.

[@IlLAD3LPH1A215]

First of all, you don’t know what the hell you’re talking about God of war is extremely complicated if you know how to string combos together and so is this. All you morons have all the accessibility elements attached because combo making can be extremely complex. If you take time to learn it to be able to string them together but everybody’s complaining about all they have to do is hit square. That’s true if you have all the accessibilities attached to it but it’s not literally the only thing you do is swing your sword and that’s it.
