I think the best XV can hope for is to be underwhelming based on the hystory of Square-Enix. A look at their games like XI, XII, XIII, and XIV. Popular opinion would show most people think some are okay, while others are downright awful (the awful being XI, the XIII trilogy and the original release of XIV).
The people who hate Xenoblade are few and far between, with a lot either not knowing what they are talking about, or never really playing the game. X is destined for greatness.
Shawarma sound good?

Sounds true, but you can't judge an upcoming games on the quality of the games that came before it. There are cases of games that break the mold. If FF IX is bad to you, remember the game that came right before it was FF X and it was an amazing game. So at any time things can go either way.
Also, from looking at the trailer of FF XV, it looks to redefine anything we've ever seen of a Final Fantasy game. So with that in mind I don't think it's fair to expect FFXV to be bad because you were unhappy with the games that came before it.
That's my honest opinion of it.

That's how people can become pleasantly surprised. I agree games can come back from mediocrity, look at the Xenosaga series. BUT, I don't think it's unfair to say a dev makes less than stellar games based on history, no.
Also Final Fantasy X was an AMAZING game. But it was also made by Sqaure, and along with the original Kingdom Hearts they were the last games made by what they WERE. Square was an awesome company filled with talented devs and great leadership, but that's not what Sqaure-Enix is.
