The same applies to collaborations such as the Final Fantasy XIV cooperation with Odin (which still exists as far as I know) where I don't understand how much Square Enix is involved in that for Sega to be able to upgrade assets there. When it was only just Phantasy Star-related items (such as character outfits, cameos from other games, or alternative Sega-related possessions ) I could envision this likely would have been achieved, or would be done. But from the worldwide variant we already don't have the existence of Cougar NX therefore I do not know if there are other complications regarding Sega's properties that may also contribute not to updating everything they can within reason.
I can envision that likely out there we'll still see someone wearing those older collaboration things even when they are not awakened to the very same criteria as fresh makeup in a similar manner and that there definitely would have been outrage when it had been made obsolete or unusable. Collabs that have experienced their makeup removed nevertheless have their resources exist on the game so those will probably still be available for jp players.
Only improvements we will probably see is the new engine enhancing shadows, shadows, colors, particle effects and projecting them against the outfits. You can have a look how just applying better shadows and colours can enhance old equipment by assessing ReShade screenshots. Collabs who have had their cosmetics removed still have their assets exist on the game so those will probably still be accessible for jp players. Only improvements we will likely see is the new engine enhancing shadows, shadows, colors, particle effects and casting them against the drapes.

The next step after Plains of Eidolon, to me, personally would have been Dragon's Dogma Online's receptive areas. "But she is underage!!!" I guess 2D art has more faith than actual life lol XD. The half butt thing description is such a disgrace. It is no wonder they could actually release the episodes as soon as possible.
They really need to fire and make a large overhaul of whoever the team is managing the localization of this. Having never actually played Episode 4 nonetheless on the Global version, I was personally surprised to see that the depictions of nudity and also the dialogue turning it was actually changed.
