That's a Kojima level of deflection by that dev.
Considering it's something that existed in the franchise since the second game, I wouldn't say that. I mean symbology / heraldry / runology / spellmarks is something that has consistently shown up from game to game throughout the series.
It's not this new thing just to have this character look a specific way just for Star Ocean 5.
Of course, I understand why she shows off her legs, I'm not so sure it's the upper part of her costume is justified however. I mean even Celine, Nel, and Myuria at least had somewhat more modesty and still showed off their symbological runes. Fiore's design does seem to pander a bit.
