It will, but I think that's down to its namesake and developer legacy. If it would have a different name and a normal history I'm pretty sure it would be forgotten pretty fast. Because everything it does, another game in the same genre does it better. The Witcher 3 has both better main & side quests, way more fluid traversal options and a more fleshed out narrative. There are dozens of side characters with more intricate backstories than FF XV's main characters, the main characters like the Baron are in a completely different league even. FF XV has its Banter, which is fun, but there is nothing behind it.
If we are just talking about the design of the open world, role playing systems and side content games like Fallout, Skyrim or Witcher 3 do a way better job. If you just want a really good, intricate, deep combat system with good controls, Dragon's Dogma would be your way to go.
FF XV does a few things terribly, yes (chief among them the narrative, storytelling and most characters, since they get way too little time to actually leave an impression), but must most aspects of the game are just OK. They aren't bad, but they can't really compete with the best of the industry, either. The only aspect in which FF XV holds a candle against these games is in relation to its presentation. It has an amazing soundtrack and looks incredible, which makes the world fun to look at, even though there is very little to do in it except of fetch and hunt quests that make use of the inconvintient, slow traversal options or the often OK, often frustrating combat that suffers from imprecise controls and a terrible camera.
