![]() They were stupid if they thought they could fool us again with PSO2. They fooled us once with PSO:BB, they fooled us again with PSU, and they even fooled some of us again with PSP2. The second they announced they were planning to have separate servers again, that prompted fans to make the English patches and everyone went straight for the Japanese servers. That would ensure we'd get updates at the same time as Japanese players and we'd get the same level of support that Japanese players get. Guarantee that the US players would be on the same servers as the Japanese players. The company running the English Southeast Asia servers had to make a deal to implement an IP Ban on the Japanese servers to force locals to play on their inferior servers.Īll Sega had to do to have PSO2 be successful in the US was the following: Throw in that those same fans that leaked the PSP2 item passwords are the ones who beat Sega of America to the punch with an English patch, a firefox plugin to translate the Japanese signup page, and guides for how to buy Arks Cash on the Japanese servers, I'd bet SoA figured what's the point of releasing it when everyone who wants to play it isn't going to leave the superior Japanese servers to play on a subpar US server that's 3 years behind in updates. Note, we didn't get Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity either, even though Phantasy Star Portable 2 supposedly performed well for a late PSP release. My guess is the petty, childish, people who would be in charge of a US version are still upset over this incident: If fans can do that for free, I highly doubt it would cost Sega that much more to do it considering they'd have the actual unencrypted files and full script to work with, unlike fans. Fans have kept up with translating the new updates and having them done within a week of release. Yeah, we all know this game would absolutely not break even in the west, but i'm sure you all have business management degrees.įans had it translated before it was even out of beta. Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis will make a fine addition to PS4 in the West this August, but if that isn’t enough sci-fi RPGs for you, Star Ocean: The Divine Force launches this October as well.ITT: People who think that PSO2 is worth the localization with the money going into translating the scripts and running the servers. And since it’s still free to play, there’s no harm in giving it a try. It provides larger battlefields, enhanced character models, a redesigned graphics engine, a new system for swapping weapons and abilities, and cross-play. Last year, Sega launched Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis as a massive update to PSO2 that effectively presents a whole new, separate experience without throwing out the original game. However, the game did not officially come West until 2020, when it finally came to Xbox and PC worldwide. The original Phantasy Star Online 2 launched in 2012 in Japan on PC as a free-to-play MMORPG, and it subsequently made its way to PS Vita, PlayStation 4, and (via cloud) to Nintendo Switch.
