Yoshi-P Game Focus Interview translated summary

[Theodric]

I don't think there's anything wrong with sex appeal - I know a lot of men and women alike who enjoy dressing their characters in revealing attire. I do think some of that attire can be rather...tacky though.

A variety of options is ideal - and this goes for men, too. FFXV has Gladio who is basically a 'walking shirtless scene' so it's not exactly as if it's a new thing for the franchise.

[ErryK]

Uh, that doesn't sound right.

It was closer to 5 months, 3.0 to 3.1 was a longer wait than the usual 3 months.

[Riardon]

The game logs are available to the devs. They can watch and track everything you do in the game and this is good. They can pull whatever statistics they like out of the logs. This helps them to see what people do and what people want and what is successful and what is not in game.

As a girl I'd really like an option that'd make it to where I'm not constantly looking at my own panties when I use glamour that has a skirt. It's not a big deal it's just something I've thought a lot while playing this. Probably more trouble then it's worth to fix in the grand scale of things that need to be improved.

Poor Yoshi sounds like he needs a vacation.

I'm glad you said that, and I agree with you, despite the fact that I'm notorious for never wearing pants for the exact opposite reason. I do love my short skirts, but mid-length would be absolutely great with some armors/glamours!

It was closer to 5 months, 3.0 to 3.1 was a longer wait than the usual 3 months.

Which means they had a 2 month break, not 6 lol. content development was still likely the same time period, they just took a vacation.

...And in between 3.0 (2015/06/19) and 3.1 (2015/11/10) were patches:
(Date: 2015/07/07) 3.01 - Alexander released;
(Date: 2015/07/21) 3.05 - Job locked gear including crafters and gatherers, Seal Rock and Alexander (Savage) released;
(Date: 2015/08/25) 3.07 - Brought job balances, so no actual new content.

... Still only 45 days. Hence my confusion.

[Laerune]

Where is he getting this data on what players take off their armor? Why is that even being tracked to begin with, if it is? And then how does he know which players are female and which are male?

I think they are most likely just looking at the avatar and assuming that the gender ingame = gender in real life.

Your square enix account has your gender in it.

He's Yoshida

That's not how it works, but ok.
