There was another Japanese interview with director Nozue somewhere that talked about how the tech created and used for this film isn't just for show but for research purposes that will help them further their real-time rendering. It would take them about a year or so.
This is all I could find right now though. It's another progressive step taken like with the Agni project, find cheaper solutions to get as close as they can in real time to the pre-rendered CG. Whatever BD2 is doing after XV should be interesting to see.

As far as the realistic look that we have in the film, is it possible to create a game with that look and feel, and if it was technically feasible, would you feel comfortable making FF look that way, or are you comfortable with how XV looks right now?
Tabata: One of our plans was to see that realistic depiction and see how we can try and incorporate it in our game, and technology-wise, see what we’re coming up short with, and what we need to work on. The goal going forward is to be able to do this in real time during the game. So going forward, we’re hoping we’ll be able to reach that and the technology advances and researches we’re going to be doing with Kingsglaive and XV.

Ohhh nice speculation. BTW, it looks like the glass penthouse party location from the old Versus trailer is still in the game (taken from the environment trailer)
King Regis got redesigned based off of his performance capture actor.
Several of the Kingsglaive characters (including Regis) had their face modeled after real actors. The capture artist for Nyx is actually doing VO for a different (undisclosed) character.

this character design isn't completely gone 
Pancake Mix
Copied someone else's pancake recipe
Are you dissing in-game Luna?
Kingslaive's (insomniac+skin aged) Luna is more realistic, as nobody can virtually lack all imperfections in real life, but I'd say the designs are equal. Just different styles.

Venom Regis confirmed.

Have to agree with this one. They look like generic sci fi alien invasion monsters.
Dapper Regis is the best Regis.
Gladio's the least anime of the group. Ignis is cool.
Noct looks like a scene kid.

?
Nah, he's actually based off this french model
Who is that
I wouldn't go that far.

Hello, my name is Yves Guillemot, Vivendi S.A.'s Employee of the Month!
Both in-game versions of Luna/Stella to me personally has always been a really generic Tetsuya Nomura female character design. Nothing i've seen from her has made me interested or invested in her character at all.

Not everyone thinks that Generic White Guy #1, #2 & #3 are better than Noctis' design.
Theanine3D

My first thought as well.
The designs of the characters here look much better and less like anime tropes than the main cast of the actual game.
PapaJustify

And how is Noctis not a "Generic White Guy"?
Noctis is a "generic Anime Protagonist", which is a tad more exotic in the west.

The character designs as usual look a bit too generic and westernized for me, yet I can't wait to see the movie. S-E will deliver the action scenes I'm sure
Yes and no. Let's say Nomura has a strong identity and I can't really say for sure the realistic/anime mash-up of FF's latest character designs are "generic anime protagonist". Probably I'm inclined to say you're wrong. I for example can't stand 99% of the char design of jRPGs nowdays. But the realistic take of FF on it it's quite unique even for the local market there.

Ok so make them Asian but keep the clothing and hair designs. Boom, way better than XV designs.

Really? He looks more like a COD character than a FF one to me
it's amazing, the effort they're putting into this universe. kinda justifies me buying a PS3 and PS4 for it.
That hair style is partly what makes them so generic. There's nothing wrong with Noctis' hairstyle. Not everything needs to accommodate to the boring styles of western men, there's absolutely nothing wrong with having a bit more flair in men's hairstyles so long as it doesn't go completely overboard (i.e. in before that one FFX-2 character), which Noctis absolutely does not. Noctis & co are also not soldiers/some elite royal force so there's nothing wrong with them dressing more casually.
Yeah, the dudes on the right here make this seem like some live action CGI movie
The dude on the left & behemoth less so.

These next 4 months are going to kill me but I officially need to distract myself.
Waiting for the PS4 Neo version.
Same here. I pick up CGI in movies instantly when most of my friends don't, but some of those shots are insane. I wouldn't have thought I'd be so excited for the FFXV movie back when the rumor was leaked last year. Looks amazing.

I assume it looks a little less convincing in motion but jesus, in stills it almost looks live action at times
Not to me.

WOW
This is as impressive as Advent Children was in 2006. Absolutely amazing.
Edit: Nyx is totally going to die in this movie.

Gladiolus is actually military. So is Cor.

I think the King and all his kingslaive are meant to die if the prologue of FFXV means something. I just wonder why Cor Leonis doesn't seem to be in the movie considering he is the King's guard.

Shame Nyx is said to not exist in the game, because he is quite well designed and seem like an interesting character.

Can I trade Prompto and Gladio for Nyx and Crowe please?

Well at least you can expect some reference ingame about him.
Though to me he looks like a discarded AC's character.

One thing Square has never disappointed with is their CGI work. It's amazing.
