I wanted to get into this game when it first dropped, but the UI was such dogshit, I couldn't do it. Furthermore, the open world didn't do much for me, and the game ran like ass, so I pretty much dropped it after getting my toes wet. >Maybe it'll get better in the futureIt didn't. I'm looking at it now, and that is not pretty with the average player count on Steam barely cresting between 1200~1500 players. Granted, Steam playercounts aren't everything, going by >https://mmo-population.com/game/phantasy-star-online-2It's saying almost 12k online across multiple platforms, which isn't too bad, I guess. I didn't see any PSO thread on the /vg/ board, though. Maybe it's a slow day.I was trying to figure out what they would have to do to get me into the game. I don't think Sega could. Feels bad, man. I'm getting the urge to hop on the Ephenia private server.
>>729367264no amount of numbers determine if a game is good and as a global game the logged in numbers are spread out so only retards focus on these numbers. it is however a shit game with no budget and no updates. you could have played pso2 instead of waiting 8 years for it to be localised. now you have nothing with new genesis.
>>729367913I played PSO2 with the tweaker. It didn't really grab me. I wanted that more methodical dungeon crawl feel from PSO. PSO2 and NGS feel like some DMC-style games. That doesn't make them bad, per se, but they're not for me. I heard PSU or PSPI is a good middle ground, an evolution of PSO without going full DMC spaz play like PSO2.
