Who remember?

Still waiting…

...

...

That's the joke.
There are people that never ventured into jap version despite Aids & Co. spoonfeeding everything needed for it plus translation patch.

That's the joke.

Wasn't the original PSO better?

If you play them now side by side I wonder what you will think.

The worst part about phantasy star is that its actually the same as WoW or Elder Scrolls Online. Its a good singleplayer rpg series turned into shitty mmo grindan.

Between this shit and various other things I lost all fanboyism for SEGA

fuck you, you fucking Jap companies are NO better than the jew ones we have over here.

Why would glorious nippon care about dirty pale monkey that can't even learn a couple of runes? They didn't even need to raise an IP block to filter out the scum like you.

...

About goddamn time

wait… ==FUCK YOU==

What year is this? 2005?

I was looking for one that combined both the above and below but I didn't find it in google so I had to do a quick MS paint swap where I flipped it 180 degrees and changed the text.

It is wholly original edit. Please do not copy or redistribute it without a proper license. If you'd like to purchase a license to use it yourself the current going price is .000025 bitcoins

Oh, another shitty localization launching 5 years late with zero marketing and a stillborn player base 6 months after launch, which they will blame on "lack of interest" in the west. Rince and repeat.

Now those are the sort of macros I haven't seen in a long time.

Can you create THICC female characters in this game? I might give it a try.

Please don't. You'll summon that guy with the absolute abomination of a character.

Expect mass censorship and writing changes to suit the companies agenda rather than remaining faithful to the subject matter. Don't be surprised if it also includes a watered down version of everything the Japanese version includes.

It's a 5 year old post. It isn't actually happening.

Why even care? by the time an international version reaches episode 5 the game will probably be on it's deadbed in Japan.

Also with an international version they'll lock the JP servers to outsiders, goodbye to everything you worked for there.

Why are you explaining the joke?

What?

Accessories man, real shit.

I have, and I fucking hate how I can't do worthwhile things whenever I want in PSO2, and those worthwhile things mainly being certain EQs at set times.
The days of getting together with a few people and just fucking about are definitely over though. The whole landscape of gaming is now dominated by anti-social, time-efficient, min-maxing dorks. Even the shitters in most online games go along with this mentality.

Don't know if you did it on purpose but congrats, OP.

So what you're saying is that people are the reason games are bad now? Wow, it's as if devs want to sell their shit to somebody who actually buys.
There are plenty of old-school/vanilla servers of PSO, RO or WOW. Just looking at their populations it's clear that the concept of "you need other people to get anywhere" is outdated and irrelevant.

...

I hope it never comes, jap version is all you need, it filter out the normalfags and don't have microtransactions out of the ass.

fucker

Oh boy, i can't wait for half of the jap content NOT to come over to the west.

but I don't want it anymore

look at the date you blind fucks

As tall and as thicc as you want.

I saw it, kid, i'm just referring to the metaphorical pso2 release that will never happen.

...

You can always tell an underage when he's getting triggered by "kid" that wasn't even for him.

No, you can tell a retard who wants to draw attention away from himself or his argument when he derisively calls someone something unrelated to the argument. In this case, "kid," as age has nothing to do with anything said.

...

...

So instead of being like little bitches how about some alternative games. Preferably not Korean.

Finall-
fuck you OP

this. it turned to shit
i got bored when i reached max level in PSO2

Well whatever. PSO2 is never going to be localized. So are there any other MMOs that can fill in PSO2's void or are we going to have to make one?

to be frank, i think the status quo is for the best
there's no FUCKING WAY all the anime and vidya promo items would make it in a western version.
the way companies cooperate over there is mystifying

It does have microtransaction out the ass, but only if you're a good enough goy to buy a ton of costume scratch tickets knowing you'll get nothing but trash male outfits worth 100k

There isn't even an IP block and there's a bitcoin miner that can translate the whole thing for you, you mongs.

Just fuck my shit up famalam

i know that you jackass i used to play with /jp/

Are you a moron?
Those old school and private servers are filled to the brim with the no fun allowed faggots I described.

I, I'm sorry sir I meant to reply to

I want PS Zero HD

phantasy star is a shit franchise and the MMOs suck, both of them

Considering what PSO2 has become we may as well make a better MMO.

...

user, I appreciate that you have dreams, but try making a Pong clone first. You're suggesting years of unpaid labor. "I'm going to/How do I make an MMO" is actually a joke on /agdg/ because of how complex and involved it is. Far from impossible, but not something that you just decide to do on a whim.

Trust me. I'm not expecting Holla Forums to make a PSO2 clone. Nor do I expect anyone to do it for free. And yes I know how complicated making a pong clone from scratch is.

However I'm also sick of people bitching about how they can't play a game they want to play because they are too lazy to learn another language. So I bring up the harder alternative of making the game from scratch because options. And if anons don't want to spend a little effort to play something they want to play just because of a language barrier that has a solution then fuck 'em. They can go back to playing normalfag garbage like Call of Battlefield Minecraft FIFA Creed Bethesda current year edition season pass DLC.

You bakas need to be banned for a week. Holy shit.

I'm still not convinced that wikiHow is anything but a really, REALLY elaborate joke.

Episode 5 in two weeks.

Why not make it lobby based like PSO1 and MonHun? Much less work intensive.

Is pso2 a direct sequel to pso1?

No. It shares a few story elements, but it's like how Final Fantasy recycles lore like the crystals.

I still have the free mousepad they gave away to people who got to play the English trial at PAX'12

As far as I know, that's the only time the English version was ever playable

I just want Phantasy Star V tbh

All I've been doing is this the casino mini games. I should probably try to progress from lvl 9

I'd still think that PSO (and PSP2i) were better. I like having a complete experience waiting for me out of the box - rather than having to deal with all the bullshit hurdles set up when everything is locked behind made-up currencies in the hopes that you'll just get annoyed to the point where you'll spend real cash rather than grinding/waiting out several different lines of progression for meager rewards.

PSO was balanced for fun - to keep you playing and grinding and paying your subscribtion, while PSO2 is balanced for extracting microtransactions.

I wouldn't mind making an instance-based loot'n'brawler. Though I think we're better off discussing ideas for that in another topic in another thread.


You'll want the Phantasy Star thread:

Lucky you. Still I think the anime-exclusive licensing deals killed off any prospect for a western release. That's probably how SEGA is making money right now. And god forbid opening servers to westerners with EU censorshit laws.

>attack on titans
>good

Got a source on that boy?

What a fucking kid thing to say.

niggers remember

So bets on how quickly it'll close like the first one? Will it even last longer than the first PSO western servers?

Never ever

I'm pretty sure at this point it is the longest running online PS game. So even if it closes right now it already outdid its predecessors.

Is there a notRed Ring Riko?

It's been going for 5 years now and is the second mmo in Japan.

No. No Red Ring Rico or any other PSO1 character except for certain nostalgia missions where they show up for a single enemy spawn. PSO2 is completely its own thing with its own story and characters.

Shit game nobody would play it anyway KEK

Christ this game is hideous.

Is it a mobile game?

Never forget.

Obligatory.

… i cant pass the fucking hiragana bot check.

People were literally spoonfeeding solutions on both half and full /vg/ for years now.
I do believe AIDS' discord also has dedicated captcha spoonfeeding room since episode 4, which is now finishied for a while.
Game is kinda dated now, so getting in might not make as impact as in 2012 however.

Just learn moonrunes.
