First for dogs

Just upslot

What do you call an ARKS without the A?

Relict to Keep Species

Doesn't that sound so much smoother?

urrrks

>tfw can't create demon doge

Not when put in acronym form.

We are RKS

Sup /pso2g/. Just reminding you that if you know any uppity Night Arks members or supporters and you want em gone, just give me their names and I'll get right to it. Email me at [email protected]

Only you can help us purge the cancer.

>beach wars

"We are ORCS!"- pso2 bald guy

The single death animation is probably just to make it completely unambiguous what just happened, to eliminate potentially confusing it for a mere knockdown or blowback

I suppose the alternative would be to make the screen turn black and white or something more dramatic. First person games get away with this by switching to third person so you can watch yourself ragdoll or whatever but a game that's already in third person has to do something different.

Don't you go twirling through the sky after a blowback?

My idea was silly.

>2016
>collection files
>removing collection file only schedule only EQ's to place in FUCKING BEACH WARS
>has no collection file tied to it

Do they actually think this is a good idea? Do people actually like them replacing good and rewarding EQ's with fucking beach wars?

I think most people simply stop playing for like 3 months due to garbage like this.

>removing
???

It's just downtime before the boost week
That said it's pretty decent for Aura file targets, not to mention badges and filling out the new bingo

EMPE RAPPY!

Im kinda sad I don't play pso anymore, I really want to continue since I have so many friends and so much time invested but I just can't. Nothing about episode 4 has really wanted to make me play, if anything the new content has been pushing me away. I hope my team doesn't mind me being away so much...

Welcome to the club
I don't even need any of the new weapons but I pretend I do just for the sake of keep me busy. I know can be sad but shit, its not the same to talk to a friend in-game vs steam/discord/whatever

We already removed you

That's cool

The content doesn't encourage people to stay logged in like they normally would.

>The story feels underwhelming.
>The animes only highlights were the npcs but they got little to no screentime.
>Summoner ruined the balance of drops
>Layer tickets left everyone feeling betrayed
>SG was a mistake
>Eq triggers were a mistake
>Collection files were nice but that 20 element shit is a deal breaker.

It's like the people who are managing PSO2 have completely lost their minds and are utterly disconnected with the user base.

Developers don't play the game, they keep adding stuff that sounds cool and shit

Why would you make a game and not even trying it? That sounds like the dumbest shit.

Remove all rappies

especially these fat fucks

Somebody post the news announcing a new team joining PSO2 team dedicated to play the game

>Sees that clover left EDF and Joined the 711 mafia

WHY CLOVER!? EDF is a cooler team than those 711 rejects

>Only 1 emper rappy out of all of my runs
This EQ sucks.

Also, I assume that we're either out of time or done with the Web Panel nonsense, I pulled a bunch of qualifying fish out and never got the notice.

I'm sick of having to search NT and non-NT weapons whenever trying to find an affix.

I'm sick of looking through a flood of 10-11 stars for 1k fucking meseta whenever I search for shit.

Can Sega fix this garbage?

because EDF wasn't racist enough obvs

Sign wouldnt erp with him

So it's true that ship2 EDF is a SJW haven?

because lilith was creeping on them since day one of them asking about a team

>It's like the people who are managing PSO2 have completely lost their minds and are utterly disconnected with the user base.

The pso2 team announced they took on more staff before the beginning of episode 4 and their ideas are what fueled much of what you saw in the recent updates. Much of the new people at sega aren't familiar with pso2 like the regulars. The two people directing EP4 have some experience with phantasy star though. (Nakamura EP2) (Hamasaki's (Zero / Po2 / EP3 (balance adjustment)

As for the team that went and created the anime, look at the histories of each of the people connected to the project. Most of the staff would be unfamiliar to the pso2 setting but they know school anime settings because thats the only type of projects they were participating in the most.

Its all about the money.
Games have stopped being games.

Many games have become more expensive to uphold and create because what has gone into it costs money.Their are usually small teams devoted to tackling each thing months in advance or they could end up with issues.


Many teams go broke way before the project is even started and some even run into trouble so they gotta micro transact everything to just break even.

The worst part is when the mechanics team drops the ball then the game can't even be a game anymore because it lacks the ability to be played like a game. Yet the pay button still works.

Luckily that isn't the case here but the issue here is wanting to alter an already working system with an incomplete system.

Gotta stock up on Embrace for next week

>Games have stopped being games.

Perhaps it's time for me to leave this hobby. Even anime is falling to this insanity. All I can do is crutch the embers of my childhood and think of better times.

The deadline was last maintenance.
Boosts that matter next week
Casino/Challenge the week after

FUCKING SACRILEGE

PSO2 is pretty good and we have to hope it doesn't become shit, but literally everything added in EP4 has been worse than ep3 or completely unfun garbage.

Odin? Shit, appears in parallel areas, completely ruined that content now.

Beach wars? absolute shit.

Tokyo free field? Shit design.

Yamato? Fun, but still shit content.

This hobby is dying to people who actually like it and catering to a player base of people who shouldn't even be playing video games.

I can't name a single multiplayer online game that's decent and good to play outside of PSO2 and POE anymore. They're all hot garbage.

Single player games are mostly shit but there's still at least a good amount of GOOD ones, they however, don't last long because you beat them then move on.

I'm really scared for my Hobby.

>not watching the sonic stream

It's over, ep4 will kill PSO2. Layered killed the fashion part which kept so many here through everything.

>Perhaps it's time for me to leave this hobby.

I wish it was that easy user. You and I know that even after you leave the hobby, the company that owns the IP for the product won't just put it away completely. It will lay on a shelf until the company really needs money and they will pull it out of nowhere knowing that the fanbase for it was quite large and it will prey on the hopes and dreams of the now grown adults whom were once children who idolized the product.

MIGHTYFUCKINGNUMBERFUCKING
NINE4 MILLION DOLLARS GONE.

Remake after remake
Sequel and sequel
Remaster after remaster
All while the time between each event will become less and less.

I hope you didn't grow attached to anything as a kid.

At least Breath of Fire, Wild Arms, Castlevania and Megaman know the embrace of the grave.

>Odin? Shit, appears in parallel areas, completely ruined that content now.
Can you elaborate? I don't see how this ruins parallels

80 odin is nearly impossible to solo.

Oh, I thought there was the hub-bub about Odin's Shin-Zantesuken scaling to players.

psst
git gud

>solo
Get some friends

...

...

>TWO fucking 13* eggs from a single crystal
Why is this fucking bullshit allowed

My thought was the number portals already existing the chances of finding odins one is small. 1/6 Not counting odins
The chances of running into a parallel were already quite small.
Especially outside of shaqs.
The chances of it dropping a rare are small too.

Once this Lq is gone finding it will horrendous.

Outside of shaqs, its been 2 years since i've seen a p.portal.

You ever think maybe, gaming is doing fine, it's just changing to accommodate newer tastes and you're mostly being left behind?

You're getting older. The music your dad listened isn't necessarily what you listen to, and... you're becoming the dad.

>Outside of shaqs, its been 2 years since i've seen a p.portal.
I imagine most of that is that there isn't typically a whole lot of reason to even play the quests outside of SHAQ that can have them (i.e. VH or higher ARKS Quests)

I want to call this character cute and see their reaction

Why I even joined a Veeky Forums team is beyond me

Everyone seems super autistic

that was a really cool mission

...

How are you liking the the new team you joined so far?

says one of the most autistic people here

You can't invite people after a end of quest parallel area spawns

Stop doing them alone in the first place

...

Cute

The team master said I was shit at the game

Maybe

is there a general element i want to aim for while leveling?

How are the other team members?
Also that guys autistic but not as much as Gav

What do I do with all these unid weapons that aren't for my attack type?

Everyone so far seems pretty cool

Very active with team EQs it seems like

Not really.
But if you are FO, pick either fire or light

I think they do joint MPAs with night Arks sometimes

fyi gav isnt the leader anymore, kirsch is.

And so we turn back the clock and history begins once more

You mean this guy?

Why?

>someone with 150 atk units are shit at the game
wow what a surprise, 80% of people with high attack units doesn't actually play the game and prefer to lobbyfag

>I imagine most of that is that there isn't typically a whole lot of reason to even play the quests outside of SHAQ that can have them (i.e. VH or higher ARKS Quests)

I would say this is correct however the amount of time I spent frequently playing stands by itself.

I spent a lot of time in sh and vh quests because of many alt-characters to finish client orders.I've run into many clones, tagami's and mesatans but p.portals outside of shaqs. Non existent to me to the point I don't even hear the omen chime it makes when you enter its same map.

fuck if i know, go ask him yourself.

>do EQ
>Cutscene shows someone freezing the fucking ocean
>TRexes, buldozers, rats and fucking avian creatures everywhere
>Get on the boat, fuck it up a little
>it starts flying
>it FUCKING dives into the ocean
>Then it oneshots everyone

i dont know what the fuck was going on but it was amazing

are all emergency quests this cool?

nah. I'm a fucking pro!

So is this Clover the new Spicey?

someone go tell closet he can finally re-join EDF

wouldnt be surprised... you know... after the incident

wut happen

Incident?

its actually sad. apparently he doesnt do MPAs with the rest of the team members

he made sophia so hard he felt bad
lmao fuck off monkey

Now everyone can come back to happy cat face!

Then it looks like I have one more target to take down.

Kill yourself you autistic mother fucker.

Go fuck yourself.
Stop posting yourself.
end your fucking miserable life you piece of dog shit

Video games

>hacker finally got perm banned

Phantasy Star Online 2

That is not a very nice thing to say

Why are all of the avatar fags in this general autistic?

Sounds like a dead game
So dead that photon cannons are using themselves.

No he's the new Rayles.

Yet you weren't the sane among the insane.
