Combat? Ace.
Character creation? Ace.
Music? Synth retard.
Story? Retard.
Graphics? Daaaaamn this a PS4 game?
Gacha? Yes.

It removed everything that made vanilla PSO2 appealing.

>>683780775
It’s the same game. Tired of these Base Cucks.

It's the only way the were able to force you to use the shitty grafted on gacha and grind mechanics that weren't able to be fully integrated in pso2. So while you could ignore them in pso2, ng makes it so you can't possibly ignore grinding and gacha.

How often is this shill gonna keep reminding people this game is barely existing. Your games only redeeming quality is the character customization but even then that has drawn in the mentally ill in droves making sure the game never retains normal players

>>683781496
then how cum the combat the best in the all time

>>683781293
Please, PSO is a Diablo clone based on grinding everything out.

wow amazing who could have seen this coming.

>>683781954
It’s because there’s deceleration on the movement in NGS. I’m PSO2, try running around and you’ll stop immediately.

How can one man kill a game?

>>683781929
And just like Diablo, the first game is still the only good one.

Seems like the mentally ill tranny obsessed spammer getting banned multiple times yesterday made him go even more mentally ill because he already back to spam another trhead with the same retarded reddit copypastas with false info from 3 years ago.

It’s the same 6 skills you can just jump higher in NGS.

If the argument is enemy design, then ok.

Sometime I wonder if these sort of posters are even human.
I’m starting to think the site just runs bots that spam stuff based on keywords for user retention via arguing.

Do you think we will ever get another PSO game ever again? Or is the future of this franchise trending towards forgotten gacha games

LQ is not repeatable because they fucking remove it forever after the month is over retard kill yourself

>Main weapons are treated like weapon types, and are a package of normal attacks, photon arts (PA), and weapon actions. Each has a short press and a long press operation, so 12 types of actions can be used by combining just two main weapons.
>The difference from characters is that triple jumps are possible, and three types of evasive actions can be used by combining directional input and jumps while locked on. Also, if the sub-weapon is set to "SA-1HMP Fenrir", continuous steps can be used.

This will sound stupid, but PSO as a series has some of the best beginning enemies in gaming.

It’s on par with shit like Ocarina. Think of the Boomers, the wolves. They all teach and utilise different sorts of movement from the getgo.

Even PSO2NG has this too. It’s a shame the level design in both games is flat, even if by choice.

>>683788737
>the darkers with the platform you can jump onto and hit the back of its head
>rolling niggers you can bait into objects to topple them
>fat ass with the back weak spot and a second weak spot that you can expose by freezing its belly then shattering it
>giraffes with the weakspot way up in the air
>bosses with sealable attack patterns depending on what you break
yeah contrary to what people say both pso2 and ngs had interesting enemies. unfortunately these also tend to become cumbersome to deal with when you've played the game long enough and you just brute force them with sheer damage

>>683788075
dead on arrival content then, the combat and enemies clearly are not balanced around positioning at all

>>683789403
any encounter where a blaze shot nigger can swerve around without getting hit is positioning-friendly enough

>>683788075
I sure do love this fucking meme of hey you enjoy playing the phantasy star series grinding gear to play classes you enjoy like Hunter or Ranger? Too bad fuck you hop in the generic gimmick weapon system that has nothing to do with your base class. Very fun fucking die you stupid faggots jesus christ.

>>683789869
The weapons here are literally Hunter/Ranger weapons but bigger and the original Dark Blast design of putting you inside a fursona that has nothing to do with your class OR your character was even gayer

>>683790145
>The weapons here are literally Hunter/Ranger weapons but bigger
good thing Hunter and ranger are the only classes that exist in phantasy star online 2 new genesis huh
>Dark Blast
that was shit too

it did though but only if you give a shit about bases story. Point is neither should exist and are a waste of development resources just like fucking limited quests and the card game.

>>683790327
>it did though
Not it litterally didn't, Had the option to pick and of the forms you wanted no matter what class you were using. Dark Blast was completely detached from your class.

>>683789869
This just the reintroduction of SUV weapons, something PSU use to have and people wanted to come back for like the longest.

I ment character, the dark blasts are story wise part of your character because of the schizo personalities sharing your brain. But yes its completely detached from class and shouldn't be a thing. The only thing I accept as an alternative gameplay style is AIS because nigga you cant breathe in space.

>>683792428
You mean shit that was tied to race like the beast transformations? If it was race specific I would have less of an issue with it but its just a shitty gameplay addition that takes away from the actual classes which is retarded and shouldn't happen.

I'm convinced that Sega is run by gambling business nepo babies. It's the only way to explain how they fumble literally every single videogame franchise they own, and even an entire fucking CONSOLE, but still remain in business. It would explain the absolutely retarded decisions they make because the people in charge don't care or are a dumb nepo baby no one can tell "no that's a retarded idea". And it's also Japan so there's already very little ability for a junior to tell a senior the senior's idea is stupid.

Why does it feel like these threads are filled with several tripfags

ok so give back pso2 before they shat it all up, the only way to get it back is for NGS to die and EOS so stop enabling the retards at sega

The ranking column is sales and the rating column is user sentiment.
4.27 out of 5 is very good, it translates to a 8.5/10. It seems the game's reputation has recovered in Japan because HMZK, the guy who pissed off the entirety of JP's playerbase in Ep.5. started having public appearances, doing interviews, and even going to an offline meeting with PSO2 players next month.

Here's an exhaustive list of end game content, both current and within the past 6 months, where you can safely maintain blaze shot for 30 or more seconds within optimal range without a high chance of having to cancel out for the iframes:
>the final 30 seconds of Malignant Solus
That one is pushing it a bit, since sitting outside of his explosive bubble puts you at risk of the occasional falling shard, but the chance of getting hit by that "5% chance of fuck you for using fear eraser" move is low enough to consider it acceptable.

>>683798012
>it's not just you making these threads because you notice that the game will EoS soon on global with current numbers

I thought the shard was a bug and even if i get hit it only happens once

>>683799919
Removing augments is a great idea but exclusively for ARKS Records. Everyone should have normalized stats there so the P2W shitters get put back into the position that life spent so much time preparing for them. I always shit on everyone by taking #1 for my class repeatedly when I'm missing 10%ish potency, so really it'd just make you fags stop looking so shit in comparison.

No, I don't care how bad you'd feel inside for spending $500 to build an identical second weapon but with Blastor 5 for the purpose of doing 9.8% extra damage on your photon blast. Fuck you.

>>683800914
>implying these threads weren't ragebait made by a /vg/ schizo with a hateboner for the game
if it's going to EoS soon just let it naturally happen, don't talk about it, don't bump these threads. seeking out and making these threads only to kvetch and remind everyone that it's really reeeeeaaally dying for real this time doesn't do anything but make astute people notice your gaslighting campaigns, especially when it went on for three whole years
basically pso2's barryfag kek

the game has serious balance issues between low fps players and high fps players due to everything being client side. playing on a console is a disadvantage.

They didn't wait. Sega just doesn't care. Right when pso2 was going to release to the west, SEA got exclusive right to English and block the west release. Then sea proceed to fuck it up. Sega gave up and kept pso2 as a jap only game . It only when Microsoft gave Sega money and servers that it got release this late
