“I think one of the biggest things [PC] players can expect is mod support,” he told me via translator at Gamescom. “We definitely want to do it. We haven’t actually managed to get our full modding policy or discussions on that finished but at the moment we do really want to do it. We’ll have the full details around autumn time.”

That sounds more promising than his previous dreamings. Like a cloudy thought being put down on paper. Although, I suppose it still technically counts as a “plan”. I asked if it would come included when the game launched or be introduced afterwards but Squeenix still isn’t sure about the timing.

“I think that whether we do it afterwards or have it at launch itself is something that depends on development… but I think we can try to get the modding into [it] as quick as possible.”

“I think a lot of people do want the mods as free as possible,” he said, “and with as few limitations from our side as possible, so we are going to look into making that the kind of system we have for the mods, so we’ll have to figure out all the technical terms around that.”

 

[Gunslinger]

Sick!
But is it steam workshop or something like Bethesda?

 

[mullet2000]

Crazy.

 

[Alexander DeLarge]

Can't wait to see what people do to expand the game. I get the feeling fan-made co-op is inevitable.

Also the inevitable survival mode will be cool too.

 

[KZXcellent]

FFXV on PC is going to be incredible.

 

[Vestal]

Topless mods incoming..

 

[kami_sama]

OK that's extremely unexpected. But at the same time, makes the port even better.

 

[sinonobu]

Yeah. I'm def double dipping now

 

[epmode]

Wow. You don't see Japanese companies embrace modding very often. I'm considering a purchase now.

 

[Garuroh]

Finally I can make Noct look like Lightning.

 

[kuYuri]

Steam Workshop support would be dope af 🙌

 

[Oreiller]

Can't wait to play through FFXV as Lightning.

 

[TC McQueen]

Man, massive props to a Japanese dev team on official mod support, but Square Enix better be ready for the tons of NSFW stuff that will come out of this game.

 

[Yohane]

Can't wait until some talented modders fix the story.

 

[BasilZero]

It's gonna be fun using mods in this game.


I bet it will be one of my most played games in that case 😬

 

[Melkezadek]

Dope dope dope. Waiting patiently for Versus XIII outfits.

Might be finally time for me to get a gaming PC. I wanna double dip on this.

 

[ryushe]

You already had me at hello, Tabata.

 

[L.O.R.D]

Can't wait to add my queen lightning instead of luna.

 

[AAMARMO]

Man, what if someone made a platinum style action mod!!!

 

[specdot]

Finally I can make Noct look like Lightning.

Can't wait to play through FFXV as Lightning.

The TRUE Final Fantasy XV experience.

 

[Damerman]

Fuck, now i gotta double dip, even if to just support the idea out of principle.

 

[Galava]

Man, massive props to a Japanese dev team on official mod support, but Square Enix better be ready for the tons of NSFW stuff that will come out of this game.

You say that as if that wasn't the plan all along.

 

[DarkLordMalik]

Gambit mode.

No items allowed mode.

Potential is endless.

 

[Sad Affleck]

Nice! Very good news indeed.

 

[jediyoshi]

Everything was Cidney

 

[ArkhamFantasy]

Gambit mode.

No items allowed mode.

Potential is endless.

Play as the girls!

 

[Callibretto]

can't wait for this

 

[TC McQueen]

Dope dope dope. Waiting patiently for Versus XIII outfits.

Might be finally time for me to get a gaming PC. I wanna double dip on this.

Well, lucky for you, this is coming out in 2018, so prices on certain components (RAM, SSDs, possibly GPUs) won't be as insane as they are now.

 

[AuthenticM]

Topless mods incoming..

Let's get the real boys band going.

 

[Dambrosi]

Oh god. someone's gonna mod Stella into the game, aren't they?

 

[Suzushiiro]

FFXV seems to be their test bed where they throw crazy-by-FF-standards ideas at the wall and see what sticks and what doesn't, and this seems pretty well in line with that philosophy.

 

[Mifec]

Oh god. someone's gonna mod Stella into the game, aren't they?

 

[Marcel]

Oh god. someone's gonna mod Stella into the game, aren't they?

I'm surprised that all the eternally salty Stella stans don't already have a detailed plan of action for the PC version.

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Alright...how much is a pc gonna cost to run this baby damn good....I need it

 

[faridmon]

Gambit mode.

No items allowed mode.

Potential is endless.

Fuck, haven't thought about that

Thats gonna be amazing

 

[BossDarkseid]

Alright...how much is a pc gonna cost to run this baby damn good....I need it

I tthink they rec an i7 at 3.6ghz and 1080Ti for 4k/Ultra...

Hopefully it'll be well optimised

 

[BadWolf]

Finally I can make Noct look like Lightning.

This is why we can't have nice things.

 

[Melkezadek]

Well, lucky for you, this is coming out in 2018, so prices on certain components (RAM, SSDs, possibly GPUs) won't be as insane as they are now.

Nice, will have time to plan using the juicy tax return.

 

[True Fire]

I'm looking forward to extreme weather mods. Cutscene edits. Barrier removals. Stat growth overhauls. Survival modes.

So much potential.

 

[pelicansurf]

Nice, no frame skipping confirmed (because modders will fix it). Good thing I never beat this game on PS4.

 

[Falchion]

Nice, I love when games do this because it's like a free set of legs for the game as long as the tools are decent.

 

[Dambrosi]

I'm surprised that all the eternally salty Stella stans don't already have a detailed plan of action for the PC version.

Give them a few minutes. I'm sure they're prepping the models in Maya right fucking now.

Oh God the SFM porn I JUST CAN'T

 

[True Fire]

Oh god. someone's gonna mod Stella into the game, aren't they?

I wonder if we can bribe the voice actors into saying "Stella"?

I mean, if Fallout 4 modders can manipulate the dialog to remove the Shawn plotline...

 

[Mifec]

Alright...how much is a pc gonna cost to run this baby damn good....I need it

To run it better than the Pro? Not much. To run it at 4k, a lot.

 

[KZXcellent]

I can't wait for the EPISODE JARED mod.

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

To run it better than the Pro? Not much. To run it at 4k, a lot.

2k a lot or more than that

 

[Earthpainting]

I would play a FF15 where the only change is Gladiolus having his Pocket edition model.

 

[Mufausa The 3rd]

Patience my friends

 

[Mifec]

2k a lot or more than that

Easily less than 2k dollars if you don't need a monitor and just wanna use a 4k tv.

 

[Caffeine]

someone put lightning in it
