Requested it in my thread, honestly I'd say its decently likely given how many games Bandai Namco are porting here recently, and Code Fairy has a component that links to GBO2 for special unlocks based on campaign completion, so I'd wager its a decent chance.

again thats assuming the GBO2 release is considered "successful", as in, enough players to warrant continued efforts

It's actually possible that they decided to port GBO2 because they are decided to put out Code Fairy and want to have more sales throught tying-up rewards as they do on PS. It's backward but it's Bandai Namco so it's possible.

Code Fairy is GBO2, you couldn't have CF without having GBO2 ported.

Eh, it's stand alone. Most of the engine is shared, but not exactly the same.

The ONLY thing I can think of that is in GBO2 that is not in CF, is the networking/matchmaking.

Obviously not all the items/MS from GBO2 are in CF, but that's a simple question of data files and I can not think of any kinds of items/MS that are not in the CF simulators.

While there are a number of things that are in CF that aren't in GBO2. I'm not seeing any way of porting CF and not having 99.9% of GBO2 already done at that point.

You might well be right about why GBO2 is getting ported, but I'm not seeing how you can get to CF being ported without anything more that a trivial amount of work remaining to port GBO2.

It makes perfect sense to port Code Fairy to PC. CF came with stuff for GBO2 that you could only get from buying CF, so if they want to milk as much money out of players as they can, they'll definitely port it eventually.

If I had to bet, I would be surprised if there wasn't a LOT more money coming in from GBO2 than CF. Even a minor whale is probably spending a minimum of about $100 a month. Which is more than CF costs as an entire package.

While Gatcha games aren't as popular in the west as they are in Asia. AFAIK, there are still plenty that do quite well (World of Tanks/Warships comes to mind).

CF isn't targeted to whales, it's targeted for primary free-too-play players of GBO2 who are fans of Gundam. I mean, cost of in-game purchases in GBO2 is very very high relative to most games, at least in European PS Store so they can't just milk auditory with big ammount of low cost purchases other games do.
It's also pretty likely that suits in PC version of GBO2 will be introduced with some delay until they catch up to console version because they can go with idea of slowly indroducing content to make hype.

But take all of it with a grain of salt, Bandai Namco is pretty inconsisted publisher with pretty unconsisted developers under it's wing, sometimes they give you way overpriced ♥♥♥♥ that simple isn't enjoyable even for hardcore fans for IP but sometimes they do a "Lord's works" and deliver increadibly deep and content-full games for lower-than-fair price, and then give you good deal for good staff less than year old.

At least with companies like Koei-Tecmo you can just state that they are "obliviously evil" (despite their attempts to fix their reputation with Nioh 2 or Attack on Titans 2: The Final Battle) but with Bandai Namco it's impossible.

to be fair we are talking of the same company that has god-tier devs like CyberConnect2 and FROMSOFT in their payroll but also sold the dev of Project Cars to the actually genuinely most evil company in the gaming sector onyl to disolve them into nothing.

yeah calling them inconsistent is a stretch its more like the joker's randomness diluted into a publisher/developer
