You are missing the point and I admit I should've made it more clear.
What I'm saying is that FFXVI doesn't look like a cutting edge SP Final Fantasy like FFXV, it looks more like a game that has to run on as many systems as possible, which is very typical for MMORPGs, like Final Fantasy XIV hence it reminds me of FFXIV. I wasn't trying to say that it looks like FFXIV, more like it has some really rough edges which are typical for MMORPGs.
The textures of the Chocobo's beak and the sword, the chainmail, the feathers, the dirt(?) and wrinkles on the clothes are all low res textures
The grass and ambient occlusion looks worse than FFXV on PC and especially the ground textures... this screenshot in particular looks really bad for a next gen title.
The Chocobo looks much improved over FFXV... but I'd expect more from a next gen mainline FF.
Compare that to Final Fantasy XV running on a PC and I'd argue that there isn't much of an improvement and it's not like FFXV came out last year.
Now you could argue that a lot can happen until release and I hope it will, but it hasn't exactly blown me away graphically and I seem to not be the only one.
