  1. In the psp version of final fantasy type-o the the online multiplayer tied into a lot of sidequests and rewards. Now that the co-op multiplayer has been cut, how will you be handling those sidequests and rewards?

2.Has the games pacing been changed in any way to reflect its move from a portable format to a home console format?

3.Are you still working on the trophy/achievement list for the game. JRPG's tend to have very tedious trophies could you please have some entertaining trophies/achievements?

4.Will There be unlockable costumes?

5.Will there be an option to turn blood 'on' or 'off' and will final fantasy xv be like type-0 in its depiction of violence and its consequences?

I just need to clarify a point about my last question which you answered so nicely (thank you tabata-san). When i mentioned 'pacing' i didn't mean the combat but rather story, quests, cutscenes etc. The psp being a handheld console missions tend to be a lot more bitesized as well as cutscenes. Has anything been added to make it a more 'prolonged' experience or is the original version intact as Is? You mentioned below that you've added extra cutscene to crimson codex, but are there anymore in the main game?

I wouldnt say blood is absolutlely necessary in all games, but the consequences of violence depicted on screen should be visceral. Final fantasy versus XIII's first trailer had noctis impale a soldier and blood was clearly seen. Type-0 is justifiably graphic in its depiction of war. I wanted to know if noctis hitting a soldier with a sword would depict the appropriate consequence rather than blue mist. This is a question a lot of people have a concern about, whether the original vision for versus XIII being a more mature title has remained in final fantasy XV, and whether your experience with a mature title like type-0 will influence that.

I would personally like to see FINAL FANTASY XV have blood effects, much like FINAL FANTASY TYPE-0 has. People who have grown up with FINAL FANTASY would like to see final fantasy grow with them. Tabata-san has always referred to FINAL FANTASY VI as a mature title and he is correct. It plays with the emotions of loss and death and it was really tragic. I am assured by tabata-sans words that it will retain maturity on that level but then the violence has to follow. If you hit someone with a sword, they will bleed red, not blue.
