Star Ocean 5: Integrity and Faithlessness Will Not Have DLC

Tri-Ace’s upcoming JRPG sequel Star Ocean 5: Integrity and Faithlessness will not have DLC, expansions or any post-release content of any kind.

That’s according to producer Shuichi Kobayashi, who told IGN, “I think Tri-Ace’s sort of attitude...is that we want to make something very unique and new.”

“The way we look at it is if we make a kind of OK game and reinforce it with an expansion pack, that does not really satisfy [consumers]. So we’d like to invest all we have into the game and make it as good as it gets.”

"[Fans] are looking for a complete package,” continued Kobayashi. “If you make additional scenarios and packs, Japanese consumers would come back and say ‘if this content is available, why didn’t you put it in the main game anyway?’”

Consumers all over world tend to say that too, Shuichi. Not that anyone listens.

  • Good man. What with this story, and no season pass for Hitman, I feel like some developers are starting to get the idea!
  • And that's the bottom line, 'cause Kobayashi said so!
  • @1 It does seem that way doesn't it, maybe the trend will increase
  • good. can't stand these fantastic rpg games that come with crappy add-on costumes, coins etc as dlc. Hitman is doing it right with the 'you pay for the game, we'll give you content'.
  • That's great news! I just hope it's not 1000 hours for the plat. That made me stray from the PS3 one.
  • Very nice news, the less saturated dlc the better.
  • OMG , Face palm , OMG , face palm again , is it true ? no it can't be ? , wait it is , there gonna release A FULL GAME WITHOUT ANY ABSOLUTE 100% NO BULLSHIT ?!!! WE SALUTE YOU TRI-ACE :)
  • I don't mind about there being no DLC but I do want them to support the game post-launch with patches and not abandon it like they did the last one.
  • Now we just need Namco to get on board.
  • Sounds good to me.
  • sounds great wont pass this one up
  • I will believe it when I see it. Just hope it true and not just them talking out of there ass.
  • I can deal with extra costume DLC's like Tales games. I seem to be addicted to them when a tales game comes out.
  • Whos the sad troll that keeps down voting me ? point to the dolly where.....
  • Goood
