What the fuck was his problem?
>>
Atoli was a sheltered submissive bitch with no spine serving a ten year old roleplaying as some cool/edgy le psuedo intelligent NIHON character. Everyone in the game had their own problems. For all of OVEN's problems, he was the only one I still liked. Silabus and Kuhn were also pretty grounded.
>>
>>729207880
Shino mindfucked him so hard he went pshcyo after tri-edge murdered him so Atoli having the same character made him realize it was his fault that Shino got Data Drained and it just works he stops being edgy after volume 2 because character development

He just wanted to be alone.

>Also angsty teenager who forgot several months of his youth.
this unironically is the whole reason he's like that comma fucked his brain bad second by the pk thing as soon as he started
>>
>>729208216
To be fair, it's a pretty fucked up thing to PK a brand-new player like that, especially luring them into a false sense of camaraderie and telling them you'll "show them the ropes" Bordeaux was a sick bitch.
>>
>>729208147
i think what happened to Ovan in the anime series was worse, was he even able to go offline while TaN had him restrained for god knows how long?

He was basically a powder keg of stress and tension waiting to blow, and Atoli was too naive and wanting to be liked so she tripped the landmine he became.
>>
>>729208252
The time between Bordeaux' flunkies Pking Haseo and the rest of the game is like several months.
>>
>>729208371
out of 10?

>>
>>729208454
>amnesiac kid that forgot he was a sociopathic little stalker shit and got his brain fucked by a computer virus putting him in a coma
He made friends in the previous version of the game by PKing someone and then asking them to be friends. He was well known for it.
>>
SKEITHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>
Endrance had the worse of it all specially when you know his whole Mia backstory
>>
>>729208867
He was well known for it, but he was still a tremendous asshat in the process, a wild card that did whatever he felt like. Hence siding with Morganna until he realized he really fucked up. He wasn't really respected as a person, just for being one of the best PKers in the game that knew how to get info and shit most others didn't.

To say he took massive leaps and strides seven years later as Haseo would be an understatement.
>>
>>729208686
The originals also kept your name for Kite if you had IMOQ save data which was kino as fuck.
>>729208942
>Young boy gets groomed by furry ai
>Becomes the only gay romance option in the sequel
Seems accurate honestly.
>>
>>729208942
Didn't realize who Endurance was until I realized who Haseo was.

Once more, I'm asking the dark forces of Bandai Namco that if they have to do some remake slop or repackage some roms, make it the original .hack. It needs it. I know they'll fuck it up but just rip the bandage off.

He was an edgy kid, just look at his damn character...
>>
>>729209128
Kinda. The first anime is. The first set of games is. The second set of games isn't since Haseo isn't trapped in "The World" and Roots isn't.
>>
>>729209051
Endrance is by far the most obvious of the returning characters that didn't reuse their name like Piros or Natsume. Yata and especially Kuhn since he's a literal who in IMOQ are way harder.
>>
>>729209174
>Ovanita

>>729209084
Yes? This happened all the time in MMOs that had PVP on. Some even incentivized other players to do so.
In any case, it provided some bragging rights within the community, and in others, you could even loot some of the PK's items.

Poor Pi got typecasted as a hag because she was a twenty something year old playing with teenagers.
Her mommy voice didn't help her case.
>>
>>729209662
Haseo is 17. He was 10 during the events of the first 4 games and the release of World R:2 was 7 years later.
>>
>>729209830
how many years was he stuck in that comma though?
>>
>>729209870
A few months. Infection happens directly after Sign and he gets better post Quarantine.
>>
>>729209870
At best besides what >>729209958 said, with how the original R1 storyline is pretty tightly wound together, Ryou was 9 in SIGN apparently so maybe he turned 10 by the time he came back out of the coma. So yeah, he's still 17. Plus I think Japan is a lot looser about close-age relationships as is; Alkaid, Atoli, and Tabby are perfectly fine.
Alkaid best girl for my runs.

Yeah, it's a shame the series is now mostly forgotten.
It pisses me off a bit to see people praising SAO as the first.

That's nice to hear, but a shame at the same time. I can imagine it'd have so much potential nowadays...
I remember I loved the games back then. The thing where you could send and answer party member emails was great.

The gameplay itself got a bit repetitive after a while, but I guess that's accurate, considering it's supposed to be an MMO and all.

Was Volume 4 actually good? I never got around to replaying it since I wanted to go through IMOQ first.
>>
>>729210250
.hack//roots pretty much sets up the story for GU unlike Signs. In Signs you could probably watch it along with playing through IMOQ as both stories feel distant enough to not require an watch/play order. A couple of downsides to roots is the story takes awhile to reach the main plot points. Also the final episode spoils a major plot point in the GU games so some recommend skipping it until you finished the GU games or at least finish part 2.

Memory loss and heartbreak will do this to a man. He was also being emotionally manipulated by Ovan the entire time. I can picture him off-screen being like "Haseo, Shino is out there. She says she will jump on horse-cock soon if you don't find her though"

No she's like the final evolution of an MMO Hypercasual Carebear who genuinely doesn't interface with the systems of the game in any real capacity and hates PvP, which genuinely triggers Haseo because he's actually a pretty hardcore player in the game world and he's like 15.

I assume waifufaggotry and goonbrained animegirl tards. I would imagine Pi and Alkaid being on high spots as well for similar reasons. (Though Alkaid was actually pretty cool)

If I'm remembering things right, Alkaid/Atoli meet up with Haseo IRL and have sort of harem thing going on.
Kite is still a sperg that may or may not be gay and has Natsume being his IRL stalker.

For all his traumatic childhood, Haseo grew up to be a pretty well-adjusted dude.

But unlike Haseo, he's never shown any inkling of reciprocating any of the feelings of the girls that lust for his dot cock.

I thought we've been over this. They lost the files so it would have to be a total remake and Bamco has no interest.

>Haseo isn't trapped in "The World"
Everyone actually does end up trapped inside "The World" again in vol 2 of .Hack GU, with logout being blocked by AIDA. Or more precisely: because AIDA data-drains Atoli's Epitath, they gain its administrative powers and privileges in the system and are able to create a mirror-server and mass-shift all players over to that one - with one slight difference: no logout function.

Not that farfetched really. When was the last time IRL when parents actually cared to check what games their kids were playing? Most are the bad parent type that are just happy with the kid in front of the screen and out of their hair, and they leave it at that.

Being a super high IQ autist brainwashed then sent into a coma by a soul turned cuntish AI only to wake up without memories of the fact and end up gravitating by reflex towards the exact same situation only you are even more autistic now because you skipped every functional development year of your life will do that to you.
It doesn't help you then get groomed by everyone along the way the moment you step back into the game and then get stuck babysitting a suicidal retard who can't get her shit together.

It's actually just accurate to what the real MMO experience was

Atoli was a BITCH

I used to love the shit out of this game back in my day. I would even put it in my top 10 favourite ps2 game just for the fond memories i had.
Then they made a remaster for the ps4 with a brand new game on top of it. I thought "OH SHIT, i'm gonna relive my childhood!!" Played it and i only got past through the first dungeon of the game (where haseo got his new form) before dropping it.
Gaming isn't the same as when you were a kid, man. It's such a shame. I can't believe how jaded i've become.

The part in volume 3 when Haseo completely BTFOs Ovan by pointing out he's not special for suffering and that everyone suffers too was pure kino.

I don't even know what's the ending to last recode. I never even look up youtube videos for it to find out the ending.
>>
>>729208252
It's so real though.
It was how I entered runescape. Got done with tutorial and got immediately asked if I wanted to see some treasure and followed them right into wildy when I was 10 or so. Got killed instantly.

that guy was even more of a woman than the entire female acst combined. what a petty little bitch
he didnt even desrve that one girl from the spinoff manga

*e-thot that kept leading him on

>Why do you think menhera or jiraikei is a popular subculture for women in Japan
i fucking wish, atoli isnt any of those. she ios the most boring, needy character ever. her being actually insane wopuld actually make her likeable (like Bordeux until the cat was out of the bag)
>>
>>729223229
she was a dumb brat that got the hots for seething haseo, it's like the typical good girl abused by his mexican drug trafficker boyfriend

there are other MMOs by time R:2 came out, in Roots and in GU news/forums mention the other MMOs, one of them being an MMOFPS.
>>
>>729223717
She is insane though. In that she is literally suicidal and unhinged to the point of visiting suicide forums to allow herself to be used by others.
>>
>>729207880
Something something memories got erased something something bound to the digital avatar of death something something.
>>
>>729223717
>atoli isnt any of those.
Anon, she fucking visits suicide websites and had multiple attempts.
She tried dressing all trendy and fashionable once, but her super trad parents lashed out at her for doing so, and her classmates bullied her for being a tryhard/not making the fashion look good on her.
Actual Jiraikei/Menhera girls (i.e. girls carrying the real psychological baggage with those subcultures and not just the look) more often than not have the exact same background as Atoli.
>>
>>729207880
Why don't they make a new .hack// video game?
>>
>>729223850
actual menheras will harm themselves and blame you for it to guilt trip you into staying with them (and break your stuff and scare away your friends, and...)
>>729223824
>20 years later there's nothing like The World R2
I HATE it in here

>>729208037
dot hack fans are all fucking starving for anything new related to the series so the only thing we got are these old games
it fucking sucks

My favourite deep cut lore is that this cute goober was one of the newbies Silabus tutored but later went on to make a new character that became that furry assassin in Moon Tree.

She's also Alkaid's friend IRL (and even created her first character patterned after Alkaid's own model).
Her IRL scenes also helped give us a brief glimpse of Alkaid IRL.

And lots of people forget, but Alkaid just larps as an edgy fight happy tomboy in The World. IRL, she's a bookish nerd that's part of her school's library committee. Pic related, the other girl here is Alkaid IRL.

a lot of people generally agree this show was kind of awful for showing off what a mmo actually was but i'd be damned if it didn't get me to start playing them im pretty sure a lot of people gave them a shot cause of this

Haseo was basically a lost child who didn't know how to form any connections with other pepole untill the day he met Shino, who accepted him, allowed him to learn the value of self-worth, was one of the few people in his life who managed to form a genuine human connection with him, and partially ended his aimlessness and loneliness. Everything was going well until the day the Twilight Bridge fell apart, Ovan disappeared, and Shino got Triedged and put into a coma. It led him to become a selfish sociopathic manchild who didn't care about anything or anyone else. Constantly focused on one goal and boosting his own fragile ego.

It was that way until the day he met Atoli who not only reminded him about his loss but also about how pathetic he is. He hated her with a burning passion for reminding him about failing to save Shino and because he thought that she was trying to replace Shino in his life. As he spent more and more time with her throughout the game he discovered how similar she is to him, her being a lonely, depressed, suicidal, and unaccepted teenage girl and all. She managed to change him as a person throughout the story and develop romantic feelings for her that were mutual this time around. They helped and fixed each other.

bamco doesn't think it's worth the money and rather pump out more slop sao games,doesn't help dot hack as a franchise has been dead for years too, there was some anniversary thing for the series like a year or two and all it got was like an artbook and some music collections
>>
>>729225857
Are the Sao games even any good?
>>
>>729226394
i think most people generally agree the fatal bullet is the best one
>>
One thing that always bothered me about this game is how the game sort've treats getting PK'd as being as scary as actually dying IRL at some points
>>
>>729226394
Eh.
>>
>>729226394
The only one I ever played (but didn't finish) was hollow realization and it was pretty decent. It's another game that does really well at emulating the feeling of playing a single player mmo. Like you can walk around towns full of other player characters to talk and trade with.
I mostly got suckered into playing it because of an old webm that used to float around here showing that you could hold hands and princess carry whoever you romanced in those games around towns.
>>
>>729207880
Haseo was mad his friend got got by a videogame demon and Atoli was being sheltered and naive at him using the same face of the person he lost
>>
>>729227916
it's basically the south park bit from the WoW episode where Randy dies in Stan's arms. though iirc the situation does get a bit more dire later on, like I think getting PK'd at the start of part 2 when everyone is briefly trapped in the game was making people comatose? it's been awhile since I've played

I played Flyff at the highest level for 10 years (2004 - 2014) and the whole experience always reminded me of .hack//, especially the interactions with other players.

They should have talked about Haseo being Sora in game outside of the parody mode videos.
