Phantasy Star Discussion
So, are there any Phantasy Star fans around here looking forward to playing this before it gets hacked like every other PSO game before it? Played at least 1000 (almost definitely more) hours in total on the dreamcast versions and haven't played much since due to various problems but really looking forward to this one with all the information pouring out, and having played the PS2 Premiere disk (first chapter of story mode) it's looking quite a bit better. Control's much easier (particularly running away) and using R1 to switch to another weapon was a great idea, far better than the mini weapon choosing menu of old.
So, who's getting it, what version and what're you planning on playing as? I'm still stuck between the PC and PS2 versions but will most likely end up being the team force. Again. |

I will be getting the PC version. Why?
With the PS2 version they will be downloading updates and what not to your memory card. That means you need to have quite a bit of free space availible on your memory card. I have 2 myself and both are full to the brim. Can't wait for October 25th This will also make a small dent with my Wii fund.

i hope they use much larger group linkshells/guildchat functions this time like in FFXI or other games. i think PSOBB had 10 members max? what should we call the official animesuki group? NoNighcatgris? or PSU AS? or team potato works j/k

I'm a Phantasy Star fan, played the four main games, put many, many hours into the Dreamcast versions, and have played the GameCube versions a lot.
I will be getting Phantasy Star Universe for PC. I'll probably be a human male first again that looks like me. Or maybe a newman male, now that I think of it. I'll see. |

Online play will more than likely cost money. They did it for EP1, 2 and 3 and Blue Burst so why won't they do it now?

Anyway, I'm looking forward to the single player game, don't really care about playing online. One of the features I'm REALLY looking forward to is the lolibots, my own customizable robotic lolis doing whatever I want them to do! |

I don't see any chance at all we'll escape paying either, considering they've been charging from the start. I've got pretty lucky so far because in the UK v2 they couldn't charge the fee (something about a condition in the dreamcast's internet... dreamkey was it? saying you couldn't charge monthly fees I believe) which is when I did the bulk of playing Still, so long as they put the money to good use I don't mind paying. If we're treated like dirt again then it's a different story entirely. |

So how many of you guys already bought the jpn version ?
Stupid me, got the ps2 game and completely forgot about the dnas ^^. However there is a real story mode in PSU, with realtime cutscreen. The storymode has only 12 chapter and the final boss fight is pretty lame, and overrall it is too easy. After finishing the 4th chapter the offline extra modus will be unlocked, where you can play the free missions offline, with your own custom character. As for the ps2 version , a lot of framerate issues, especially later in the game, when the ememies starts to cast spells. It makes it feel like everything is running in slowmotion ^^, kind of annoying. Honestly i wouldn't recommend the ps2 version, instead get either the xbox360 or PC release. |
