That actually sounds kind of enjoyable for me. We haven't quite gotten that yet with the MMO shows aired so far. Shame the trailer looked really boring, hopefully the show's a bit better.

Think that's about it for shows explicitly related to MMOs, though I might be forgetting something. If you expand the question to fantasy settings with extremely heavy JRPG influences, there's quite a few more.

Might actually work. This way you don't need to take the shit story seriously.

That premise sounds really shitty for Phantasy Star. Kids playing games is a fun idea for an anime but for this series particularly, it definitely should of followed the story of the original game. Maybe Ash or some OC hunter trying to find Red Ring Rico. Will do the 3 ep rule anyway but my anus is fully prepared for disappointment.

The game went with a reverse tie in for the upcoming episode 4: it takes place a year after in tokyo, where there are now phantom (enemy species name, not actual phantoms as you'd think) enemies, which include cars, helicopters, tanks, people, t-rexes, and a train dragon.

Why? What's the point? The game isn't out over here so why bother localizing the anime?

Also, what the shit is going on in PSO2? I played it a few months ago and its a pretty decent game, but stopped playing because I had no friend to play it with. I enjoyed the aesthetics and setting of everything in it though, but then I just watched this trailer for the next story arc:

If you're playing PSO2: You either go CAST / Caseal (without costumes) or uninstall.

>>135821192
Male casts have to have their brains implanted from somewhere.

Newman males usually offer the best quality brains (faster reflexes, higher I.Q.) and are usually the top choices once they've survived combat in a fashion so manly that their former flesh bodies are obliterated.

Remember PSU and the shitty lag in content updates, motherfucker? You want that again?

I stopped playing PSO2 awhile back because you still had to have a "license" to use/have the items drop, for any gear above 9*, which you could only get using cash shop bought currency, and only lasted a month.

Is that still a thing? I'd love to fight the newest incarnation of Falz and who can forget TACO tuesdays.

pso2es anime when?

>>135821280
I must say that I disagree with your negative sentiment regarding playing fleshies.

Everyone knows that in every fictional universe, the creation of machines, androids and cyborgs is led by a master race.

In PSO2, this race is Newmans.

>>135815569
>No friend to play with

Wow. You couldn't make one? Too much of a little bitch to play alone and jump into parties?

>>135821752
May I remind you that in the PSO2 universe, Humans created all the races present in ARKS by genetic modification of their own race. Newmen may be the first of those modified races, but they are still created by humans, just like the CASTs and Deumen.

You need a pass to buy 10*, 11* and 12* weapons (10* and 11* units*) from the player shop as well as premium. You also need to get one to drop to turn into a pass. With the content right now: 10* and 11* weapons / units drop like crazy to the point that EQs drop so many that you convert them to Excubes (Magatsu gives about 100 per EQ for me). Anything of a lower rarity can be bought right away regardless of level (equipping is a different matter).

TACOs are weekly but Daily orders are a thing that give a good amount of Meseta. There's a boost going on due to the anime airing which gives 100% EXP, Rare drop and rare enemy appearance boost.

If you have any more questions: just let me know and I'll answer them the best I can.

Don't you require premium to trade for passes?

I played by myself for the six months I played it. I would sometimes do TACO runs with the clan but that is it.

>>135821988
>"You need a pass to buy 10*, 11* and 12* weapons (10* and 11* units*) from the player shop as well as premium."

TACO means Time Attack Client Order. Basically, a certain map you must complete before the time limit and you net yourself a good amount of Meseta (at least a million to two million if you throw in Extreme Quest Client Order. Hell, some Daily Orders can be done during the TACO runs).

Wait a minute, so you have to get the item to drop before you can turn the pass in, and it's been a while, but are Excubes the currency used to buy the passes?

When I stopped playing It was Falz Loser and I did daily orders all the time, I remember those seasonal ones being oh so rewarding.

You ought to be glad I even responded at all to a non-male Newman!

>>135822076
No. You trade the weapons themselves for the passes. This requires premium. Using the passes to buy shit off the market does not. The point about excubes is that most 10-11* weapons have deprecated to the point where turning them into cubes is more valuable.

Newman shitposter pls go, everyone knows that newmans are losers

File: la adjustglasses.jpg (80KB, 1280x720px) Image search: [Google]

80KB, 1280x720px

>>135822076
Excubes are currency that you use to purchase good items such as 250% rare boosters (6 cubes each, worth it during an EQ like Magatsu so you pull a huge profit), 30/40% affix boosters (they're a fucking life saver when you plan on doing some affixing), 30% grind risk reduction and some other things.

If you exhange for a pass before your premium runs out: you can still use the pass without having premium so you can stockpile a bunch of passes for when you need them.

Yes, you have to get a 10* weapon to drop to turn it into a pass so you can buy the one you want from the player shop. Like I said, you get them very easily when compared to how it used to be (lucky to get a 10* drop from Falz Elder and you had to consider getting the rare booster since it was harder to get cubes).

Yeah, seasonal ones are great especially for low level characters.

>>135822280
Even our greatest Loser can stop time. You have nothing to lose by becoming a male Newman.

>>135822326
the problem is that 10*, 11* and even some 12*s are outclassed by red weapons, which are 7* weapons
the only reason to get those rarity weapons are if you're too lazy to do challenge mode or are playing force in which case godspeed

>>135822076
You need to get a rare to drop, but they drop so commonly now they can't even be called rare.

But no one cares about 10* or 11* anymore. BO can use Craft Mastery to make their 11* as good as a 12*, but there's a power gap between 12* and 13*. Regardless, there are free 12* pass Title Rewards if you want second best without having to do all that silly hard work.

We're all about stones now. EQs and Ultimate drop various stones that can be collected and traded in for 13* weapons. Though you need a shitload for most of them, and they only come partly attribute grinded, so you have to buy several if you want to get 60 element.

They cost money, but you can also buy them in game. You'll probably have to shell out a ton of meseta for the better ones though.

>>135823240
they range from easy to obtain and mindbogglingly expensive, the longer their on the shops the more the price goes up.

all can be purchased with the in game currency of course or you can try your hand at the AC scrach which contains the recent ticket for real money

>>135823240
You can get them with in-game money, and buy them from other players. Of course the market follows supply & demand. You can see what voices have been put out and then search for them in the game to see if anyone's selling it and for how much.

http://pso2.jp/players/catalog/scratch/voice/

>>135823240
They're come from paid content, but end up on the player shops for maybe 300k a pop on Ship 2. 300k is, like, nothing. By level 50, that's maybe two weekly quests that'll take ten minutes of solo work. Some are more expensive because of either high demand or low supply; a lot of things just have not been taken back into rotation.

I wonder if the anime will touch on the large ERP (erotic role-playing) scene this game has.

If the anime doesn't at least cover Episode 1's storyline, I'll be disappointed. The story in the game is good enough to be its own anime, even if Episode 1 sucked. Episode 2 was fucking great though, especially when Xion sacrifices herself and causes Luther to spaz the fuck out so hard that he becomes a Dark Falz

>>135827810
NZ is safe, my Kiwi friend.

>>135827810
i honestly don't know. the general rule is if you can connect to http://pso2.jp/ then you're probably ok. the reason SEA ips are banned is because they have their own version that ip blocks anyone outside of SEA. of course, SEA PSO2 is the shit version that's filled with p2w horseshit like balancing content around costumes that have 30 day damage affixes on them when that doesn't exist in JP PSO2.

>>135827962
>adapting any of ep1-3's story
Not gonna happen. The anime is at best a tie in to incoming ep4 which nobody is looking forward to because EARTH and possible SO3 twist.

Episode 2 and 3's stories get really good when nearing the end.

>>135828012
I beat episode 2 and started ep 3 (up to the princess on the Japan planet saving my ass from Double), but I kind of stopped playing again. I know that Matoi becomes a Falz after saving your ass, and Persona saves her by taking all the darkness out of her, and the Profound Darkness event boss is absolutely fucking awesome, but what's possible for the next episode? What are they doing? Aren't all the Falz dead?

It's not looking good. See pic, these two are npcs shown when ep4 previews were first revealed. Red is supposedly main girl, there's a shota she's taking care of, and we just woke from cryogenic sleep or something. Also, earth with mutated businessmen, t-rexes, tanks/steamrollers, and a train that transforms into a hydra as enemies.

Nobody is looking forward to this.

Every time. Every god damned time this theme kicks in, it fills me with motivation.

Maybe they'll explain what the fuck Anga Fundarge is with the anime. Shit's like a mix of Darker and Photon Blast. Also a great theme song Especially when it kicks in after you kill it the first time

The anime is frankly so poorly thought out I can't help but cringe.

>>135828826
What makes it even better is it plays while you're fighting yourself. If there's anything sega knows how to do well it's huge boss EQs. Double was kinda shoehorned in though but it's okay. Magatsu is a mixed bag though, I still love fighting SAI but the regular platform magatsus are shit.

Post things that would be amazing to see animated, but will definitely not be animated.

Last chapter does explain it somewhat, Anga is basically a mag for Profound Darkness, feeding off negative energy to later pass it on to Profound Darkness once it is revived.

>Fals Apprentice doesn't have a theme

I wonder which Falz will show up in the show, or if it's a new one. You can't do PSO without Dark Falz, after all.

>>135829497
At least Apprentice got 4 major EQs devoted to her while Double got shafted into a mid boss.

>>135829512
Avoid ship 2, join 4. Ship 2 has the shitposters and whatnot there. 4 is also infested,but FAR less.

>>135827275
She was a pretty normal girl that got chosen for a fun time experiment because of her high potential to function in a caseal shell or something. Her mind did not take to the experiment well. It's not really surprising, the further into the story you play and more conversations with NPCs you have you find out that ARKS really is a fucked up organization, a lot of that was because of Luther's leadership though.

>>135829497
You could argue that apprentice has all four TDs and the music for them is so damn good especially once you have an AIS up. Best one is TD4 wave 4 while in danger of course.

I hope the anime shows the cast playing in TD.

>Relegated to a miniboss and random loot pinata

I remember in early beta when Ragne was the scariest fucking thing. I hope the anime at least makes it look like an actual enemy, at least one time.

Real life playing mmorpg anime is usually ok when it's an original game.

Taking an establish story like PSO2 and ripping it into an anime? lame.

Also still no english server and offical trasnlation. So don't give a shit.

Does WoW let me be a robot cowboy? No? End of discussion.

>>135845045
Does any other game let you raid 40 man or 40 vs 40 6 day long battlegrounds? Thought so.

>>135845045
Next expansion.

>>135844542
You know what I miss from Universe?

The beastmen and their ability to go beast berserker mode.

>>135845203
We all do.

After Nexon's handling of DFO even Konami wouldn't touch hands with Nexon.
Fucking incompetent ass mother fuckers

Still doesn't let me play a cowboy robot samurai.

QUALITY?

you know it!

>we all furries

>>135845409
Yeah, if you want that instead of any worthwhile gameplay then knock yourself out I guess.

Not that I think the Phantasy Star series has had good storylines in a while, but why the fuck is the show about kids playing the game? Instead of being about the setting the game takes place in?

You never progress raided, did you?

>Comparing an actual MMO to an instanced game with lobbies.

Come on guys, you're being worse than /v/. They're different genres.

>>135845718
Raids are not worthwhile nigger, fuck you.
Trying to coordinate 40 retards is the most boring, frustrating shit ever.

>>135845718
Yes, because hoping that 40 retards don't self-destruct from their sheer stupidity is fun.

>>135845944
It actually is if they do and you're watching from the outside.

>>135810463
Why not just play jap version and not be cucked out of content?

>>135845882
>nigger, fuck you.
You seem kinda hurt.
And if you've had bad experiences then I'm sorry, but I had a great time back then.

>>135846265
You're the one who started dissing people for having fun with PSO2.

>>135846460
That is what good leaders do.

Aside from some fur on the ears, they're not furry enough to be classified as furries.

>>135846560
no thats what a good politician does , good politician != a good leader.

>>135846365
Just pointed out that there's better alternatives for sinking your time.

>Sword Art Online anime
>Anime about students playing SAO

>>135846617
I bet you like Bernie Sanders.

>>135846641
And as was already pointed out, people like the aesthetics and the character creator. You can quit your hissy fit now if you're really just pointing out that there's a better alternative.

Diablo 2 anime when?

Guess thinking that these don't make a game good or worthwhile is old fashioned now, but hey have fun.

No, just a pronounced shadow effect of her slightly feline nose/mouth area.

>>135847247
No thanks.

>>135846999
Go back to /v/. Having good gameplay definitely helps, but people play games for more than just that.

>>135847702
Literally never visited /v/, but yeah.

>Student Council president girl plays a male CAST.
Well that was surprisingly nice, despite the "perfect girl" wanking.

>>135847767
So she's a closet fujo.

>>135847751
Go now!

>>135847934
Do you even know what a fujo is

>>135847957
I'd rather watch anime or play games.

>>135847934
Who knows, maybe she just think that robots are cool.
Her character was the best thing about the episode in my opinion, since everything else is extremely generic.

>>135847751
It's okay, from what you've shown you'll fit right in.
