@beardalaxy Many of the fans of the original games hate the MMOs for that reason along with the fact that the MMOs have almost nothing to do with the original series in both gameplay and story. I think even the creator of the original games said that she doesn't consider Online or Universe as part of the series.

The closest thing to "sexy stuff" in the original games were Nei and Rika from II and IV respectively, but they were just your typical female JRPG party members and nothing more. I'm not against sex appeal even as an asexual (yes really but I'm not an attention whore about it) but I just hate seeing a largely unappreciated RPG series turn into a space waifu simulator.
