SegaJAM Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I had already put in a cool 300+ hours on the original Japanese PSO2 (only missing the New Genesis trophies) years ago. Looking forward to putting another 300 in! I always loved the server-wide boss fights and collaboration events. Hopefully we'll see some of them in the localized release.

Sydoki Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Oh my! Finally!! No longer have to keep telling myself "just setup a VPN to play it"!! Very happy to see it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExHaseo Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 It only took them 10 years. Depending on how difficult the list is I may get it. I kind of played it a lot already though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sikutai Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 OMG!!!! I played PSO on the Dreamcast for 10 million hours. Finally we can play PSO 2 in the West. I waited 20 years for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same (except it was on Gamecube for me) If I hadn't just dropped £80 on PS+Extra because I had nothing to play I'd be going PSO all day every day! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MushuMixLipa Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Been waiting for a western version, as good as the fan mod/translation is would prefer to play it on console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darghel Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I'm kinda excited and not at the same time. I waited too long for this and while I enjoyed it on pc when it came a few years ago, I just felt that the excitement was totally gone. I'll keep an eye out for curiosity sake i suppose.

Hoopdahoopla Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I played the hell out of the first one on Gamecube and PSU on Xbox 360. Hopefully this one is just as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I remember, the Game Cube Version wasn't as good as the Dreamcast Version, because you had to pay for it monthly. It was free on Dreamcast. PSO on Dreamcast 2000 was the first MMORPG on console. SEGA was always ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MandA60VISE Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 It took so long to even get a Japanese release, much less bring it west, that I essentially stopped caring about the game. I may play 2 but I've heard nothing but horrible things about New Genesis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h4mx0r Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Wonder if it'll auto pop trophies that I earned while playing on PC? When I transferred from Microsoft Store to Steam later on, it auto popped everything on Steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never actually played it online though anyway. Stuck to splitscreen with friends and brothers. Did play PSU online for a while though. Also very fun!

Mipsy Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Hmm. Dang, it'll happen. o.o For a very short while, this was my most-awaited video game. Phantasy Star and I date all the way back to the original Phantasy Star I, well before PSO, and I was eager to hop aboard PSO2. c: Then months stretched into years and the flame waned. Will it rekindle? Dunno. But it's worthy, at some point, of a try. ^^ FOnewearl Miku bless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Angulus Posted July 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2022 SEGA should add a platinum trophy for the new western trophy list. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
technole Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 It'll be same trophies, they are getting to the point they just don't care anymore, have not added a single new cheeve/trophy since NGS release a year ago. All you have to do for NGS is complete Chapter 1 story and Level 20. As of June major update we are on Chapter 3 and Level 60 level cap, it's telling because they ave never been late adding new trophies for over 7 years as new content comes out, and now they just stop, even on Xbox. Short of a new PS5 version someday for all regions where they will require a new list, I don't expect anything to really change. Sony makes money today from outfit bundles and AC currency in the store so it could have a platinum when they go-new with the rules now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
