So how long should I play this game before I get a good feel of whether I'll like it or not?

Finally played this game. It seems fun but it is difficult to dodge enemies when they begin attacking as I can't quickstep far enough.

So this game is less of a traditional MMO and more like a looter dungeon-lite explorer game with Monster Hunter-like bosses. That's the gist that I got from my two hour playthrough.

I always hear people say that Final Fantasy XI was the first console MMO and how Phantasy Star Online wasn't "a real MMO".

A lot of people are posting very NSFW symbol art in the lobby.

I hate that bosses can be beaten by dying and going back to the level over and over again. Like I can keep dying to a boss but when I fight it again the amount of HP I took off is still accounted for.

I can barely hear anyone in my party on voice chat and vice versa.

Well. I broke launching the game by simply setting pso2launcher.exe to "run as administrator" and have to uninstall and reinstall the entire game.

Can someone explain putting skills on palettes to me. I still don’t understand that.

Why can’t anything in this game be straightforward?

You open up the menu, then go to the second to the left box and select "Customize Sub-Palette".

The story in this game seems...not good so far.

Like you would think story quests would be missions that you play and then you get an end cutscene, but a lot of the time you just get a cutscene and that's it. It's odd.

If I install PSOTweaker will I still be able to access my character I've created with my Windows 10 Xbox App account? I want to end this lobby lag.

I assume this game got a massive population boom after the official English release?

So is this a A Realm Reborn situation where it's an entirely new game but with the same name?

What's a "parallel game"?

kirbysuperstar posted:

what do you think the word parallel means

The question was rhetorical.

It's PR speak for "It's a new Phantasy Star 2 but not because we aren't abandoning the old Phantasy Star 2 in case it fails, but if it is a success then we will then just gradually stop supporting old Phantasy Star 2."

Oh forgive me, this was apparently the one time you asked a question and already knew the answer as opposed to every other time where you miss the most obvious of details and need other people to spell it out for you.

If you have such a problem with me then put me on ignore.

I must say it's kind of hilarious that New Genesis PSO2 A Realm Reborn is barely a year out from PSO2 finally getting a Western release.

It's likely Microsoft paid them to localize PSO2 so they could in turn fund New Genesis.

If you want to actually engage with people do it in good faith and stop being a shithead.

The post was rather rude.

Edit - But it does seem to bother him and I should take his feelings into account. Assuming that your response is agreeing with his initial post and not angry at me for dismissing his qualms and being passive aggressive (though it could be both), then I apologise for any irritation I've caused and will post with more consideration.


I apologise.
