Final Fantasy 16 Mods Requested to Avoid Being \"Offensive or Inappropriate\" By Director Yoshi-P

Final Fantasy XVI director, Naoki Yoshida (Yoshi-P), has politely requested fans avoid creating or using "offensive or inappropriate" modifications for the PC version of the game, launching tomorrow.

Final Fantasy XVI PC Launch: September 17th

Yoshi-P's Plea for Respectful Mods

In a recent interview with PC Gamer, Yoshi-P addressed the modding community, urging them to maintain respectful boundaries. While open to creative modifications, he explicitly discouraged the creation or installation of content deemed "offensive or inappropriate." He cleverly avoided suggesting specific examples to prevent misinterpretations.

Yoshi-P's experience with previous Final Fantasy titles likely exposed him to a range of mods, some falling outside acceptable parameters. Modding communities like Nexusmods and Steam showcase the diverse spectrum of modifications, from graphical enhancements to cosmetic crossovers (e.g., the Half-Life costume mod for FFXV). However, the existence of NSFW and other potentially harmful content necessitates this request for responsible modding. While Yoshi-P didn't provide specific examples, it's clear he aims to prevent the spread of offensive material.

Final Fantasy XVI's PC release boasts improvements like a 240fps frame rate cap and various upscaling technologies. Yoshi-P's request simply aims to maintain a positive and respectful environment for all players.
