The improvement from the previous generation's graphics will be very visible if you compare the graphics with gameplayFinal Fantasy Versus XII (the name of this game 4 years ago), will be much different. Lighting is now using material-based lighting, HDR10output to a TV/monitor that already supports the HDR standard, 4K support, particle effects the resultant looks beautiful, and the world is no longer pre-rendered or instanced, but open world.
On PC, for graphics card users Nvidia GeForce GTX, you can use the features Nvidia GameWorks to get particle effects, hair effects and shadows that are more detailed and subtle. However, AMD users shouldn't be discouraged, because even if those features are off, the game's performance is smooth and the graphics still look amazing.

One thing: Prepare download which is time-consuming because the game file size reaches 80GB!
Hectic, but Strategic Gameplay!

This means the fight is getting more and more hectic, and sometimes you will find it difficult to manage attacks, spell, items nor warp or blink (because of the abilities of the main character of this game, Nocto), but it's fun! Because of the view third person Also, if there is a monster that is large in size, it will look proportional and very challenging. To travel, other than walking and riding Chocobo, you can also take a car called Regalia.
The standard RPG system is here, from status, items which increases the player's attributes, up to spell or magic and summon. However, what is unique is the friend help system (skill tags), and also spell crafting. Because Nocto went on an adventure with his three other friends, namely Prompto, Gladiolus and Ignis, so even if they can't be fully controlled, you can still summon them and activate skills which will help in battle.
System spell crafting very creative, because you can collect materials for three types of elements: Fire, ice and electricity to a certain extent. To create a spell, you simply take an amount of each, and mix it with items others, random ones and usually you can get by picking items on the road or monster drop, and every items it will give effect to spell which is made. Besides skill tags and spell, There are also Royal Arms for Nocto, an incredibly powerful yet life-sucking mystical weapon, and the most bizarre but real system: Culinary!

Or anime series Final Fantasy XV Brotherhood? Yes, the Final Fantasy story this time is massive, and very complex, because it involves a prequel story, then the events in the cinema, side story the journey of Nocto and his friends and also the story after all that. If you want to know the full story, yes, you have to watch all the film and anime series, including playing the game. Amazing isn't it?
It seems, if a gamer hasn't played Final Fantasy, it's not over yet. But if you're a PC gamer, so far, Final Fantasy is definitely not a priority game, because not all of the series are on PC. After all, even if there is, it is outdated and outdated.
