YouTube’s ‘Cycu1’ has shared a video in which he compares the PS4Pro and the PC versions of Final Fantasy XV. This comparison video showcases the graphical differences that are coming to the PC version. For example, you will immediately notice the sharper visuals (thanks to the higher resolution), better textures and ambient occlusion effects.
The PC version of Final Fantasy XV will come with 4K high-resolution textures, support for Dolby Atmos, and will feature some NVIDIA GameWorks effects (such as NVIDIA TurfEffects for realistic grass simulation, NVIDIA Hairworks, NVIDIA Flow, NVIDIA HFTS shadows and NVIDIA VXAO).
Final Fantasy XV is coming to our platform in early 2018, and Square Enix is looking into officially supporting mods.
Enjoy the video!

PS4 Pro was a mistake
Edit: At least Square Enix knows how to do a proper PC version (from a graphical standpoint) Unlike so many other devs where there’s little to no difference.
Mistake how? Please tell me the best way to play Sony Exclusives, I want to buy that amazing device ASAP.
Best way to play Sony Exclusives? Well that’d be on a PC with emulating software 🙂
You cant do that now so its irrelevant.
Oh yes I can 🙂

i was about to post something…. saw your gift…. thumbs up and walk away
A gif is worth a 1000 comments.
We PC players can see the high FPS, but these dime a dozen comparison videos always fail to show running performance for everyone else! Obviously PC image quality looks better, but PC is also running at much higher FPS performance here which = better gameplay! FPS and frame time measurements both need to be in these videos.
Sometimes devs dont care to make image quality “look” better for us PC gamers (aside from resolution options), so console-only “journalists” and tards bash PC and vomit out their usual childish “LMAAOOO $5000 PC SUXS.
LUks da saEM!”
I agree. I have an excellent rig and a ps4 pro. These comparisons don’t come close to showing how big of a gap between the 2 there actually is.
I’ve done back to back comparisons on the same games with my ps4 pro, and pc running at 4k. Without moving the camera around the difference in quality is definitely noticeable but not necessarily drastic (depending on the game). It’s when you actually start playing those games that the difference becomes night and day. There’s almost no going back.
What, you think they never upload their videos at 60 FPS by accident?
Not that even that would be enough to cut through YouTube’s bullsh*t compression, of course.
PS4 Blurry.
I could tell immediately the right one was PC.
PS4
ProAmateurPS4 Poor
There is no argument that PC is much better, but there are some games (NOT this one) that you must play ASAP, if for example they release Dark Souls 4 or Demon Souls 2 with one year timed exclusivity on PS4 ill get the PS4 version and play it on my Pro without thinking twice.
If i want something I want it now, i cant wait a month but year is suicidal.
So far it never happened for me (I almost got Xbox version of TR and had Gears 4 pre-ordered until they announced that TR comes to PC rather soonish and that gears 4 will be day one PC too and then i sold the damn xbox ).
I skipped playing this FF, i had teh game, than sold it sealed because i had otehr games to play and I dont like mobile games: Press one button to auto combat, sometimes press another button to dodge, no magic, 1/10 summons of previous games and fully automatic, you have no control, the gayish boy band, no women on your team… lame stupid game, FF died with FF10
The announced mobile version has more appeal, because even with downgraded graphics its identical to the original game and with the one button combat feels home on tablet/phone
marketing victim
No such thing.
You should actually wait one year to play a polished version of the game you like so much. Most titles are way better some months later after the bugs have been ironed out and you can buy them cheaper and with all DLCs.
PC has such a vast library that there’s always something in the backlog to play meanwhile.
No, I dont believe in waiting, when I want something I want it now, i get heartaches when games that i want get delayed, even by month.
I dont care about most games, my steam library has 353 approved games plus 157 hidden games (crap by my standards)
I played less than 10 games, i have my standards and list of games that i play, some like FF and Diablo i started playing in the 90s.
The only games i never skip on are Sony Exclusives and no im PC gamer for most (1080Ti, 5820K @ 4.5Ghz (soon 8700K) )
But Sonys exclsuves since PS3 era had lots of soul in them.
PC gaming is sad today, every time i open steam im bombarded by another indie “survival” where teenagers run amok naked with biggest balls and dong that game allows and kill each otehr just to repeat the same idiotic gameplay over and over again.
If this is the future of PC gaming, then im not interested.
I dont want to survive, i dont want to play with kids, i dont want to play any mmo,co-op,social whatever games
Well, I agree with some of what you said before. I started gaming in 1991, and got my first PC on 1994. We both don’t like MMO, survival co-op, etc. That’s because we’re old.
What puzzles me is that being old (I’m 37, currently on recovery of an ACL surgery with 2 months of medical licence, so, lots of free time) you’ve not learn the benefits of patience. Take a look at No Man’s Sky, to say something; a year after launch, it’s a much better and improved game. Grim Dawn, another example of aging for the better; and there’re countless other examples.
You could always replay an old game, with mods, higher resolution, etc.. Just and example: STALKER with the Complete mod is a vastly improved experience. And there’re countless others.
Too much ambient occlusion is bad
BLURYSTATION 4 PRO
We already knew it has BLURAY
One of the reasons that so many games on consoles look blurry is because consoles use such weak hardware that the best they can manage is FXAA in most games. FXAA is the least demanding AA but it uses a blur filter to blur the edges along gradients to reduce jaggies but also, unfortunately, blurs textures.
well i see
1. WAAY better texture filtering, its like the ps4 has none or 2-4x max lol
2. ambient occlusion is spot on on PC
3. better DOF and higher resolutions at distance
4. of course…anti aliasing
Are we seeing an actual AA solution? Or is that simply the result of the higher resolution?
I dunno you might look at digital foundrys coverage for the game tbh
Sad to say but these are minor differences compared to games 10+ yrs ago where PC games looked almost generations ahead. The performance though, PC performance literally IS generations ahead.

PS4 Blurry.I could tell immediately the right one was PC.If only the main characters were all bubbly, cute blondes like the mechanic I’d want to buy the game.
It’s a hive of scum and villainy. Best site ever.
