Oh my god, PSO2 trailer *drools*

[Pedro The Hutt]

Welcome back PSO, we missed you!

 

[linkvegeta]

I would play it, only if I didn't have to pay a monthly amount.

 

[FalloutJack]

Nah. Given that I'm a fan of the old series, which seems to have little to do with the newer stuff, in fact, I usually give this a miss. Glad Phantasy Star isn't dead. Annoyed that it doesn't live up to its full potential.

 

[Savagezion]

Eh, played PSO back in the day with some friends and thought it was boring and generically crafted. About the only thing worth a damn about the whole game was the mags. Then people started hacking them and shit so the entirety of PSO went straight down the shitter.

Since I'm hoping many will fill me in and Wikipedia isn't very personal about it.
What in gods name is this game, and why is it so amazing?

The first one was the first MMO on consoles(Dreamcast), and one of the very few online games on the Gamecube. Many people have great memories from the games. And the games were really, really, really, really fun to play with others.

Its one of the few games I will say: Local > Online, I put in over 400-500 hours on Local play in PSO, that game was godly.

LOVE PSO, still play it and would be playing BB now if the ship i played it on didn't die.

still, looking forward to it, just a shame it's only PC

Might give it a try if they've managed to learn what questing gameplay actually is over the past decade. Corridor grinds are a thing of the past, thanks.

i don't care wake me up when there is another sp game like universe

You mean make it open world like 99% of all MMO's?

 

[Saviordd1]

No...just...no...i could not be less interested.

The fact its anime based makes it worse

Some more info I grabbed off the pso-world website.

-Randomized dungeons
-Weather Effects
-Third-Person Shooting Mode for Shooting
-Jumping
-Random Mission Events

The Randomized dungeons and Mission events make me gleeful, I hated running through the same area for the umpteenth time. Also I hope they bring back the old school MAGs, none of this partner or weapon-slot Mag like in the PSU/PSP games.

 

[Palademon]

Wow, an MMO I actually like the look of.
What has the world come to?

 

[Pzest]

I'm scared that this game will suck up all my time and attention like PSO did.

 

[mikev7.0]

Ahhhh. Back to the days when if someone called out "Red Box!" I really DID get excited.... Waitasec. Did someone say PC ONLY?? *sigh* Back to PSU for me then I guess. Still it looks soooo good. Is that PC Only thing official/final?

Some rumours suggest a possible console version which I pray to god hope is true.

If this doesn't have split screen or offline, this will not and never be the true successor to PSO.

I really hope you're right about that Korten12, I still love PSU and will be back on it now that I'm returning to XBL but that trailer brought back sooooo many happy memories. Other than City of Heroes, PSO was the only game that had a really fun player base.

 

[thenoblitt]

played phantasy star online 1 and 2, and they were freaking amazing, played universe and it made me lose all hope in everything, so this doesnt make me very excited at all

 

[SteveeVader]

I'm sorry but god no in so many ways god no I clicked out of curiosity but god that trailer was painful.
P.S. before I start What was the plot to PSO one cus I played the first one for about 60 hours and got nothing from it or unless it's one of those things you wiki but that is extremely bad story design. To me the artwork looked appalling and very washed out whilst the first one had the sci-tech feel this has gone for some weird tales of vesperia meets FFXIII. Which goes to something to be this game looked like FF13 the mmo just corridor grinds it was uninspired and dull kind of like the first.

To the guy who said most mmos have corridor grinds, WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN PLAYING? I can call at least 10 successful multinationally designed MMOs that are not that. They are vast expansive and are reflective of the story, this game does not like vast and expanded and conscious of its own story it looks like left click repetition to me which the same problem DCU had.

Don't get me started on the music used, that music was just 3 beats looped which shows lazy crative skill.

Additionally it is published by SEGA a company who have been dead in the water for the fast 15 years trying to fight their demise
