I have to admit, I've been fairly critical in my tastes of impractical or sexually enticing outfits for the past few years, but I occasionally forgive the idea.
I forgive it for Fiore, she's one of my favorite designs out of this game so far.

I don't mind her. I'd like her better without the tail, wings, ridiculous hat and outfit though.

I genuinely love her design.
The colours, the jewellery, the hair, the massive hat, the wings and tail, and the ridiculous harlequin like half bikini, half catsuit, it's just marvellous, and exactly the kind of over the top, super stylised high fashion look I like in Sci Fi.
Really reminds me a lot of the more out there Sci Fi movie wardrobes infact, and wouldn't be out of place in films like Babarella, Flash Gordon or The Fifth Element.
Frankly I'm just disappointed the rest of the characters aren't in similarly weird and wonderful outfits.

The devs on the gameplay stream mentioned that magic isn't Symbology this time but rather Run(e)ology.

If there's a video game character of 2016 voting thread this year, I know who I'm having on top.
I don't personally think Fiore has a great costume, but I'd absolutely agree with wanting to see the rest of the cast wear ridiculous pulp sci-fi inspired outfits instead of going with the generic JRPG look.
Imagine Emerson wearing a ripoff of Sean Connery's Zardoz costume.

I could do without the tail and wings and would add a few inches to the skirt, but otherwise I like her. Cool design.
Uhm, why would anyone second guess themselves?

Can't wait for this game.
Thats the thing about Star Ocean though, it's has to have a good balance between the two.
SO3 was my favorite but Fayt wore very fantasy based like Clothing while Maria was more Sci-fi like Edge and Reimi in SO4.
I sort of agree in wanting to see more Sci-fi as I do want to see characters with more advanced technology than what most fantasy based worlds have. But with the current cast that we see now, I don't think that is going to happen unless its a world we visit that doesn't have a recruit-able party member.
I don't even know who owns the Celestial Ship they use to get around in.
She'll be in your party except if the game's story dictates she wont be. You can have 7 characters in battle at the same time.

Hype!
I know 4 gets a lot of hate but I loved it and this looks amazing so far.

I'm very green to the Star Ocean franchise, I've played maybe like a couple hours of the PS2 one of which's name I don't even remember...long time ago.
I've had trouble latching on to JRPG's in the past that don't have excitable end-game content for me to tackle after the narrative is over and done with. Xenoblade Chronicles captured me for that and furthermore Xenoblade X restored my faith in my ability to like single player RPGs again.
Is Star Ocean typically known to have end/post-game content that is difficult to tackle without being extremely well prepared, or even a set of challenges that you are presented with that require mastery of the games mechanics to do? This might be my next drug after weening myself off XBX but this is really my only concern.

Has some cool looking attacks but I usually don't use mages in a Star Ocean game because melee usually just blow them away in terms of raw damage and effectiveness. Still hoping for some alt outfits because I hate all of the character designs so far. I'm sure they'll kinda grow on me but meh.
As opposed to the other stupid characters in your party that you don't know the personality of? I mean seriously some people have issues if a design like this makes you uncomfortable. The outfit isn't even that bad, its just ugly, the characters you shouldn't want to have in your party are the ones who are insufferable during the actual story or crappy in combat since this is an rpg.

I love her costume! Practical? No. But it appeals to me for some reason.

This is important to me, I'm already kinda saddened by the fact we've seen all the characters we can get (unless they pull something on us and we can get another cast of misfits like in SO1-3 ) but thats not really within budget of today's games. But if we get multiple endings due to PAs i'll be fine with that.

I'm hoping this is the case, and they've really emphasized the importance of private actions and how they'll determine the ending for you and such. But yes, I really don't want to be stuck on a fixed path again like we were in SO4. It was so odd from them to go that route for SO4, but I'm hoping that was a bit of a mistake. Then again, a lot of what we're getting in SO5 feels like sort of an "Apology" for some of the aspects in the previous game.
So here's hoping.
Ofcourse they have the typical shrill voice for the young green haired girl and sultry sounding voice for this one Fiore girl.
You could tell how they'd sound just by looking at them because that's how common those two voices are for those two character archetypes in anime/JRPGs. So common infact that they all sound the same most of the time with the same pattern of speech

Yes, Star Ocean is known for its extensive post-game content that can be hard unless you essentially break the systems (which many fans of the series consider part of the fun).
