>this is PSO2NGS newest villain
>>736436013phantasy star is dead, just cherish the memories you made and move on
It's fucking Elmir again. Globabs wouldn't know, but in JP dub he has Elmir's mannerisms.
>>736436382And who do you think this giant titty fuck is?
I played some of NGS to unlock Classic and it honestly didn't seem bad. The combat was responsive enough, the movement felt good. What's the issue with the game?
>>736436013wooow noo way! no one saw it coming!!!how many years did it take them to finally reveal it? what a shitshow
>>736436579> What's the issue with the game?The main problem is launch. SEGA more or less fuck over PSO2 base while giving NGS the very bare minimum. I am talking like the only content is just the forest exploration and UQ. That it. NGS right now is fine but it took them 5 years to do it.>BUT MUH STORYMost of PSO2 Base story is really, really bad but they will never let Matoi go.
>>736436616That not the real Crawford, though. That is just a starless that took his form for shit and giggle.
>>736436528The design is all over the place. People see everything in her, some argue it's another Shiva-like photoner, others say it's Zephetto's cloned body stolen and trooned out by Vael, and there are even people who think it's a weaponoid because she's similar to Gene.
>>736436808>Shiva-like photonerThis is what I would assume as well. She probably a remnant of her or was those geometrical monster that turn into a human girl.> Zephetto's cloned body stolen and trooned out by VaelHe already done that already with Pharia
>>736436981It was a good while ago, but Zephetto made that ultimate 4th generation clone and had Pharia help him transfer his mind into it. Vael took it for himself, then nobody knows what happened to it after the fight. PSO2 already had recovered former dark falz hosts like Yucreta and Aika. PSU also had Lumia.
>>736436579Launch was dogshitThey clearly rushed it because they were trendchasing the genshit moneyDestroyed base by attaching this turd of a game as mandatory install instead of the oppositedestroyed the lightning (PSnova is the only way to see the "old" game)NO content, at all, if you want a comparison with something that just released it had the same content as marathonSimplified the game way too muchOnly good thing i want to say is the affix stuff but i stopped caring about metaslaving because SEGA just does handovers every update>>736436750maybe i should make some space for it and play it properly, is the tweaker still fucked by that anticheat swap?I'd rather not play with gl*bal TL
>>736439503The item translation patch is gone, most of the game is translated but they're behind on the story stuff from entire past year. Tweaker troons are saying that item patch is never coming back, but someone on their team was experimenting with using the proxy for swapping packets instead of doing it locally.
>>736439503Is the game fun now? Ive only played it at release and like you explained, there was shit nothing to do so I dropped it.
>>736439926It peaked around 2 years ago, that's when there was the most shit to do. After that they changed the entire game format to be about one limited quest to run for the next 2 weeks. They don't add new difficulties or update the drop tables for any older quests. Everything that's relevant drops only in the current quest.
>>736439926Not him but general content is>do daily >UQ everytime its up>level to max>finishing up the story>whatever the event or newest update is on like Limited Time Quest/Leciel/City>fashion if you can afford>Creative Space if you want housing>Base PSO2 if you want that itchThere are like trillions of side stuff that barely reward you with anything at all, and while you could work on your gear and leveling up, at this point, its a waste of money. SEGA kept giving out freebie set just so the players could do the latest content. Yeah, you could spend trillions minmax, but it WILL get outdated.
>>736440205It didn't help that block4 kept getting kill and all the alliance members that usually hang out there get spread apart. There isn't a block where we could hang out.>but block 1lolno
Need a way to play PSO2 without NGS taking up a bunch of space.
>>736440481It's ridiculous how NGS ballooned up to over 90 GB despite having very little story or voiced cutscenes. It's all dogshit fashion nobody uses from almost 50 AC scratches per year.
>>736439737it's fucking over
It annoys me that people complain there is a "lack" of CAST parts when there is just as much in the NGS than in Base. Then they rerelease the set as variant for free.
It's not a game, it's a dress up doll simulator with weaponsJust play on Ephinea or emulate Infinity
>>736443648I emulate infinity on my tabletNobody else is playing it online. Shit is frustrating.
No one cares
>>736436013>my name is RETEP and I am evil >:)
>>736443648Until those games have this amount of customization, then no.
>>736436013>Alter CrawfordWTF, what happened to the lab dude?
>>736443896I emulate it on PC, even got to transfer my save from PSPo2. No idea how to play online though, I imagine you can join a PSOworld discord and find people though like back in the day
>>736444052Again,>>736443648>It's not a game, it's a dress up doll simulator with weapons
>>736444170>I play these games soloWhats the point? Teaming up with others is the purpose of these games.Until ngs anyways. Why they locked all the team stuff behind a lvl 60 cap is beyond me.
>>736444383They're perfectly playable solo. Been playing mostly solo since v.1 on the Dreamcast.It's a fun dungeon crawler
>>736444131Its just another guy that looks like him. He is calling himself Crawford in a mocking way.
>>736444504I dunno man. I play these games for the co op. Its fantastic when it all works with other people. Thats just my humble but handsome opinion though.
>>736443408Variants just have different color channels or added camo pattern. And some sets are remakes of parts from previous games.NGS male sets: 36, 6 of which are N-spec remakesPSO2 male sets: 75, some as old as Ogi from PS Zero
>>736444383>Until ngs anyways. Why they locked all the team stuff behind a lvl 60 cap is beyond me....They didn't...? You just can't find anyone since only dead-enders that are high-level are left.
>>736443994this lil nigga cares a lot actually
>>736444571Oh, whew. I haven't missed anything in the story then.
>>736439503>NO content, at all, if you want a comparison with something that just released it had the same content as marathona more direct comparison, because somewhere down the line of telephone it's what was ultimately being ripped off: it's like if the tutorial area made up the entire of BOTW. same scale.
>>736444856They open chapter 8 with the real Crawford saying that we got a "brief" period of respite after killing Vael. That was 14 months ago. It looks like we were supposed to get chapter 8 like a year ago.
>>736445092>It looks like we were supposed to get chapter 8 like a year ago.Yeah, I'm like Level 110 and tapped out, I haven't bothered with getting the +5 on all the classes because it's clear Sega isn't going to do shit with the game and as you say: the story takes forever to update for like 1-2 hours maximum "updates."
>>736436808>The design is all over the place. People see everything in her,[That's probably intentional, seeing the Alter realm, now that finally have actual context for it, is being somewhat described as a alternative realm of AI generation where certain landmarks and aspects of a region are there, but the mapping and terrain is all fuck.
>>736436579Launch was barebone and too early. Once they finished the world... they haven't done shit with it.Story is dripfed out.No content. What you've seen to unlock classic is what you're doing for the whole game.
>>736445278People thought there would be more to this story update and it turned out all of it except new roastie's name reveal was already shown in the trailers. 2025 roadmap and the 5th anniversary page had a new concert planned for this year. Nadereh actually said during the Vael EQ that she was working on a new song to commemorate that fight. Reasonable thing to expect, right? Instead we got an April fools joke song on the level of Dudu's lines getting remixed into a character song. Entire division 3 was dragged off to work on the super game scam and there's actually more story in Fudechin's comic strips by now.
