GOD DAMN IT HOW DO I SPLIT TIME BETWEEN THIS AND XENOBLADE

---

aaaaaaaaaaaa

---

aaaaaaaaaaa

---

so how many hours are gonna be spent on the character creator?

---

Sounds like there's a lot of options for female characters but I was probably going to make a robot gunner so probably not too long

---

fuck

i've already got utawaremake and kawase smash to worry about then and i've been procrastinating hard on starting any of the 5 other games i got this month so far and there's still like 10 others i need to get too and also terraria exists again

fuck may

This is all free right?

---

Ther game itself is free, but unless you want to be bogged down by limited inventory space or want premium costumes you'll probably spend a little bit on it

---

I don't like that they specify "Windows 10" rather than just PC... I'm not going to be able to play this on 7, am I?
---

Its exclusive to the windows 10 store as far as I know

So Windows 10

---

(Also North America only)

Aww man, it's not a global release? Guess it's VPN time then

---

Oh wait what, us EU lads locked out for a bit then.

---

I thought....the reaction to this on Xbox was super negative when it came out, like "oh shit this sure feels like an unupdated decade old micro-transaction hell hole".

Why the hype?

because beneath all that it's still Phantasy Star Online which is a fun video game to play, especially with friends.

---

because top five soundtrack which makes it all worth it

plus pc is inherently better than consoles

IIRC this shouldn't be necessary. you'll only need to change your region in Windows to download it.

---

I mean that's exactly what this is.
With a pretty great character creator.

---

Predownload is up. Does anyone know if a hotmail email counts as a Microsoft account?

---

If you learn Japanese, you won't need to wait 8 years like this. ;)

---

That's great and I do know enough Japanese to get by in a video game ( Been working on the PS4 release of Zero no Kiseki) , but that doesn't help with being able to play the game with my little brother or my friends who weren't going to play the game if there wasn't an English release

1. Change computer region to NA.
2. Install PSO 2
3. ???
4. Profit

---

also I guess do we know what server we'll all be using?

---

and if not is there a Ship 8 for B8

True, true...

I've heard some bad faux English accents in my time but Afin is something else.

Yeah you literally need to change your region for like 5 seconds click download and then change it back. Just seen a vid on youtube.

---

okay so only the first 3 servers are up (out of 6)

1 and 3 are NORMAL

2 is CROWDED

---

Best part about PSO2 story cutscenes so far is when the English voice acting ends and the character is still moving their mouth for at least 3 or 4 seconds

---

Now I'm ready to play
