Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's director Naoki Hamaguchi caused a stir last December when he asked modders «not to create or install anything offensive or inappropriate» for the second part of the RPG's remake, which just launched on PC.
While he didn't specify what was «offensive or inappropriate», such a broad statement would certainly cover nude mods, which are as inevitable in PC gaming as fiddling with your graphics settings.
Naturally, the PC gaming community responded «Sure, bro» before continuing to put, as one redditor so eloquently put it «a massive hog on Cait».
Hamaguchi recently returned to the subject when asked by Automaton Media about his personal perspective on mods. This time, he offered a more detailed response, albeit one that doesn't necessarily reflect a vastly different stance than before.
Hamaguchi began by pointing out that he has been known to dabble in a spot of modding. «As someone who plays games on PC, I sometimes use mods myself,» he told Automaton.
