7/20/2023 0 Comments Pso2 character creation errorPSO was/is the best online console RPG ever made, and it was a pioneer in the industry, (albeit the only one at the time of the Dreamcast). Now gamers can experience PSO without being limited to a single home console. ![]() This is something many Dreamcast fans had hoped for a long time coming. To much surprise, Sega finally got their act together, and are supporting an official sequel that is very much like the original, but so much more improved. Given that MMOs just weren't the same, and the PS follow ups were dismal, I never thought there'd be a day where PSO would return to the masses in all its glory. The Phantasy Star spin-offs that followed didn't have the same appeal as the original PSO either, going in an entirely different direction from what PSO was. "Go here, do that, grind, gather, craft, repeat. The MMO felt bland, and kinda stale, where swords, elves and magic all melt into one big mishmash. I played Aion for a while, dabbled in WoW, and LOTR and tried SWTOR. In the time after PSO, I tried getting into playing MMOs. Most of all, the game was addicting, and I had clocked many hours playing with friends. To name a few, PSO offered the option to raise pets (MAGS), the character creation and communication options were extensive, and the overall design style and Japanese aesthetic was pretty cool. ![]() ![]() Certainly other online games should learn from Sega and PSO. The game itself was a one-of-a-kind experience, that had all the foundations of what we see in today's MMOs, but offered action RPG elements, among plenty of other things that differentiate it from your typical MMO. No other online RPG, MMO or otherwise has been able to captivate my attention as much as PSO did, and that's not just nostalgia talking. Sega had released the original Phantasy Star Online, in early 2000 near the end of the Dreamcast's life and introduced players to the possibilities of online console gaming, that basically turned the little Dreamcast into something of a PC hybrid - with a mouse, keyboard, and broadband adapter.
