Something to give Rikku proper, decent clothing? The highly conservative, moral nature of PC modding is world renowned.

Star Ocean V might be coming to PC

Not the one you think, it seems the mod scene for it has been relatively lewd free, surprisingly
It's amusing how that mod changes them from having bad fashion sense to having a different kind of bad fashion sense.
This is hilarious

It was the Japanese voice / English text swap. Since that was like the very first user made fix on the day of it's release. Seriously.
When it starts getting launch parity, for sure. There are still quite a few on Sony hardware/3DS that don't get ported for years, if ever. It's very quickly moving in the right direction though.
Isn't PC still not very big in Japan? I know that was one of the biggest roadblocks for a long time. If Sony truly adopts the smartphone model with real forward and back compatibility, that and PC could have just about all the bases covered.
I'll take all of the Star Oceans(but 4) and Resonance of Fate for starters please Japan. Mmmm, just thinking about grinding to destroy Freya's cheap ass in TEoT again.

Precisely. And these naughty mods comments on every PC port thread is an outdated, depressing meme at this point.
I will not deny that Meracle in particular was horrible panderbait of the highest order but I'll be damned if she wasn't fun as hell to control in battle.

It added new clothes to the girls in FFX-2, didn't it?
(Left new, right old)
There was fairly large backlash over this, enough to the point where the creator stopped making mods
... What, what?
Are S-E still convinced that many PC gamers don't 'have controllers'? I mean, I understand that the Japanese PC gaming market is very different from the one in Europe and America, but I would imagine that controllers for PCs aren't exactly an uncommon phenomenon over there.

Yeah seems to be a bit outdated.
I'm surprised the interviewer didn't bring up the fact game console controllers work on PC using bluetooth wireless, or plugging the USB charge cable directly into the PC like a wired controller.
If people own a game console now, they already have a fully functional controller that works on their PC. Some work natively by just simply plugging them in, and others need easy to use software such as DS4Windows

Nice but not exactly surprising. At this point I'd more of news if it didn't have delayed pc version.
Keep in mind many, if not all, of these PC ports are developed by outside (Western) firms.
So S-E Japanese producers would likely not know offhand how PC players prefer to control RPGs and such. And of course the Japanese PC market is incredibly tiny.
That being said, games are developed on PCs with USB controllers certainly used, but perhaps they still think the majority users are keyboard. Or maybe he's just uninformed. Wouldn't be the first time since PC gamers aren't their focus.

What left is new? A mod adding more clothes, this is first for me.

i wonder what the first mod will be
Probably reverting the changes done to appease SJWs who weren't going to buy the game in the first place? I recall an uproar over granny panties
In any case this is amazing news. Looks like Japan's embrace of PC gaming is very much real and not a fad
I am always reminded of the DOA port where the dev basically begged people not to do any nude mods. Also, it's the internet, you will always have naughty mods, for anything.
Backlash? From which group?

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Curious how the port will turn out, if this does end up being the case. Would this be Tri-Ace's first PC port?
They didn't change anything for the western version, we're getting the same thing Japan did. They changed one of the characters' panties during development.

Probably coming eventually, but I think it'll be a decent while.
The usual GG crowd that hangs around the steam forums. The usual "swjs are censoring our gamez" bullcrap.
Yeah, it's a damn shame. I like the original outfits as well but I think the modder did a really good job on this.

Yes, it would be the first ever tri-Ace game released on PC.
Although I don't think tri-Ace would do the port themselves, most likely a porting studio would handle it like Virtuos for example.

the creator said " unfortunately the huge negative reception I received posting this mod on the Steam forums has kind of soured me on modding this game. I'm leaving what I've done up and I'd like to come back to this project at some point, but right now I'm too pissed."
however since i cannot find the discussion on the steam forums i imagine it was deleted

Uh, the top mods on Nexus Mods for FFX/FFX-2 are all texture mods, UI mods or modest clothing for Gullwings/Lulu.
I can't even find a lewd mod.

DOA dev asking people to not make nude mods is just too funny to me.
I mean, I get they need to sell DLC costumes and they can't do that on PC, but LOL.

Awesome news! I've only played the PS2 Star Ocean, but if it comes to PC I'd be willing to try out the series again. I'm still upset about the diaper girl censorship thing, but I can get over it. Still, this is one of Square's more out there series. What about PC ports of Kingdom Hearts games, or of mainline Dragon Quest games, or of Drakengard/Nier games? It just seems strange that it'd be Star Ocean 5 of all things.
Also lol. I think its kind of funny how they don't seem to consider that people are okay with playing games with a controller on PC. Although to be fair, people will complain and/or may even leave negative reviews for games that don't have good mouse&keyboard support.

I've played 2 and 4. I liked them both.
I think he said not every PC gamer uses a controller, which is probably true. They shouldn't ship the game without good KBM controls, is what he is thinking.
Wouldn't be the first person to quit doing what they love right after FFX-2 because of backlash.
:'(
Generally in the worst case porting scenarios the game still plays better on PC. Even if it's the worst port of all time, you could just pick up a used copy on PS4 for cheaper.

I suppose every Square game will with a delay (with the exeption of Kingdom Hearts and stuff like Dissidia/VIIR where they have some Sony dealing going on).
The story and characters are bad, but the gameplay is tons of fun.

Edit: I'll be picking up the PS4 version, but I built my first gaming PC a few months ago, so I wonder if at some point I might not even buy recent consoles due to PC ports.
Dear lord, the amount of butthurt over a completely optional mod that no one has to touch but might improve some people's experience.

The best in the series are 2 and 3. They are above average JRPGs on their platforms with some fun characters. I say that 2 is the best, good batte system, a nice crafting system and lots of neat little story moments. 3 and 4 improve on the battle system but, 4 had garbage charcters. 1 is interesting but feels pretty archaic. Really shows off what the Super Famicon could do though.
One thing that will always make me laugh. They say "Cry more, SJW!" or some other spiel, yet they are the ones crying up a storm.

First two are classics IMO. They had fast, fun battle systems, a really colorful cast of characters who all play differently, great music, and lots of choices to make.
3 and 4 basically just have fun battle systems but everything else is utter dog shit.

Whoa, they fixed Yuna's face? And these graphics looks good. I ignored FFX remastered because I got enough of it on PS2 (I still have the game and could play it on PCSX2 as well). I may get this the next sale, or I could just check the price now and get it if it's not crazy like $50 or something.
I never played FFX-2, partly because of the outfits the characters had. I remember I sent my mom to get MGS VR Missions and she wondered if I wanted this game since I liked Final Fantasy. I was secretly embarrassed she had to see the game lol. What the heck Rikku. I had to spend my own money on games so I didn't want to waste it on something I would have to explain to my family each time I'm playing. "You see, it's hot where they are so... yeah." I remember being questioned about Tomb Raider 2.

I had the most fun with 2 and 3. 1 was alright, and I've avoided 4 because every cutscene I've seen from it made me yearn for the sweet release of a lobotomy. I've heard the battle system is good, though.
