The localization of Phantasy Star Online 2 by Sega West has become somewhat of a running joke between the fans of the game. Of course it’s that kind of sad joke that doesn’t make you laugh, but makes you cringe instead.
Luckily a group of fans of the game got sick and tired of waiting, and started working on a fan translation that allows players that aren’t afraid of doing a bit of tinkering to play the game on the Japanese servers with almost no effort and with an almost full English translation.
Here's a guide on how to install it, patch it, and get it ready for playing.
Some WoW-like MMORPGs are better than others. Here's a curated list that offers a wide variety of games that let you play with other people but have something unique to offer.
WoW is a mess and it will continue to be a mess. Still, the less-developed MMOs are going to have trouble gaining a fan base because they lack content right now. Even if people do flock to FF14 or BDO, they'll go back to WoW if they fix enough features or give players a shred of hope.
Blizzard is going through some stuff right now, and people are seeing the writing on the wall— World of Warcraft might not be the best game in which to invest your time at the moment.
Nah, I'll keep playing the game with the millions of other people. The writing on the wall says "game is not dead" even though people have claimed it is for 15 years.
I'd guess that people are going to filter out but then come back for the next expac when the turmoil is over. I do worry about content delays, though.
With the release of a global server, this MMORPG is available on PC and Xbox. However, does Phantasy Star Online 2 have cross-platform play?
Here, let me save you the click: "Yes, Phantasy Star Online 2 does support cross-platform play between Xbox One and PC"
Nice guide. Well detailed and informative to fans of the PSO franchise that are willing to throw money at the game but can't because....well Sega.
It's a sad state of affairs when loyal fans of the franchise have to go to these ends just so they can play a game in which they love.
*cough*VC3*cough*
Sega will never localize this game. lol
Now they are after Atlus just to do the same thing with their IPs. X(
It's been a long time since sega said anything about PSO2 coming to the west. Too long! I've played on the JPN servers myself and it was fun. The only reason I stopped was because I didn't want to get too into the game just to have Sega release the game over here and I'd have to start all over again.
Having to redo any mmo is a pain, especially when rare items are involved...
Sega is a POS.
Wish I could download phantasy star online 2 on my vita with out changing the memory card, rebooting up to 10 minutes and playing in japanese. Poor ol me.
