I wonder if the 14 graphics engine can do something like this.

[Krojack]

Besides mods, the graphics engine can support the Veil of Eternal Innocence and the other similar ones, so it can clearly handle see-through fabrics, so I can't see any reason to think it couldn't on a skirt like that. (Isn't there also a headpiece with a semi-seethrough veil over the face? I was thinking there was but don't remember which it is.)

Ah yeah I forgot about the wedding veil. Well I wish they would make more use of this style for gear.

A sheer see through look for gear. I would love something similar to the Saber Nero Claudius look for gear.

No, not even SE can make Saber your waifu.

Or our sausage fingers... I want fingers that don't look like dubious meat products SE.

We had higher resolution models in 1.0.. but well you know what happened there.

Square Enix has an ethics department. They go through things in products they develop that seem unethical or not, and depending on what they look like, they tell them to change it. Reason for an ethics department is because buyers in the west tend to be offended by things the most. So, in other words, most likely never going to happen.

Western players does not care for silly things like that.

Twitter is full of bots and is ruining todays public social interactions, people should learn to stop caring for it.

SE just doesn't have as good designers as those that do those third party mods. Find that very weird there third party ones can create this stuff but if ask Yoshi says its to hard for them to do. Pretty sure these modders don't have the resources and money like Yoshi team has.

That's a lie most West would have no problems with this. Just look at Conan Exiles. Also look at all the RP players there is.

Does that offend you?

China would like to chime in here perhaps? I have never heard of a game company completely reworking graphics and stories cause they want to sell in the American or European market. It may have happened once or twice, but again, I think everything in between Japan and Europe would likely be more the culprit of any ethics dept.

CookiesNCream is correct that the Western Market is a lot more sensitive about certain things than Japan is.

AnimaAnimus is also correct that China tends to be even more sensitive though incorrect in stating that game developers don't have to change things for the NA and EU markets. It's done a lot more often than people think.

The culprit isn't the players and what players will accept. It's the ratings board and retailers. A lot of retailers won't carry products that aren't approved for use by at least teens by the ratings boards. Each country's ratings boards has their own list of hang ups that will cause them to put a mature rating on a game instead of a teen rating.

YoshiP even went into a far amount of detail during an interview about some of the things they would like to do in cinematics and in game but can't because of the NA and EU ratings boards.

As for the OP's request, it's possible for SE to do. The question is how they would use the sheer appearance in gear models and if the ratings boards of any countries would have issues with it. It may not be a fight worth SE's time to battle since having such sheer appearances isn't necessary to the game.

Would you be happy if new content and features were delayed 3 months because SE tried to get something past the ratings boards and then had to redo everything when it didn't? Probably not. Better for them to take a more conservative approach they know the ratings boards will accept so they aren't forced to redo months of work at the last minute.
