Final Fantasy XVI's director, Naoki Yoshida (Yoshi-P), has politely requested fans refrain from creating or installing "offensive or inappropriate" mods for the PC version of the game, launching September 17th.
Yoshi-P Requests Respectful Modding for Final Fantasy XVI's PC Release
In a recent interview with PC Gamer, Yoshida-P addressed the upcoming PC release and the modding community. While expressing excitement for potential creative modifications, he emphasized a clear boundary: the avoidance of "offensive or inappropriate" content. He declined to specify examples, stating that highlighting certain types of mods might inadvertently encourage their creation. His core message: keep it respectful.
Yoshida-P's experience with previous Final Fantasy titles likely exposed him to a wide range of mods, from cosmetic alterations to more explicit content. Modding communities, such as Nexusmods and Steam Workshop, host a diverse collection of modifications, encompassing everything from graphical enhancements to character skin changes (like the popular Half-Life costume mod for FFXV). However, some mods cross the line into NSFW territory, and it's this type of content Yoshida-P aims to prevent. Examples might include explicit character models or textures.
Final Fantasy XVI's PC release boasts features like a 240fps frame rate cap and various upscaling technologies. Yoshida-P's request for respectful modding simply aims to maintain a positive and inclusive environment for all players.
