    At Tokyo Game Show, SEGA showed off some of the first glimpses of their upcoming revamp of Phantasy Star Online 2, New Genesis. The livestream, which is about an hour long, goes into multiple facets of gameplay, showcasing combat, the map, gathering and more.

    The livestream revealed that there will be three classes at launch - a Hunter, Ranger and Force. The video showcases combat of all three, giving you a good idea of what you can expect when you take the role of one of the classes when New Genesis hits. Additionally, the game world, while open and seamless, are segmented into exploration and battle areas - the former letting you hunt and tame monsters as well as gathering; the latter brings non-stop team battles.




    Go to 22:00 for Gameplay videos.

    I used to love playing PSO1 back in the Dreamcast days, I've been meaning to try this one. I'm glad they finally ported it over to the US areas and we can check it out.

    I had fun with it for the time I played but it definitely felt like... idk.. Mario 64? Like there weren’t zones and stuff like FFXI or FFXIV... there were snapshots of areas, every area was a strike or something.

    This new thing is shaping up to look really fun and cool. I hope they can deliver on it.

    Whaa?? That's like saying you watch TV on CRT boxes and thoroughly enjoyed it. Ya, it was fun back then, but almost nobody wants that now in what's supposed to be a new game.

    I play FFXI occasionally during the Free-Login periods and it looks as good/bad as I remember lol. But yah, its subjective, I can still play games like Valheim where you can literally count the pixels and not bat an eye, graphic quality has always been low priority for me. Sure its important to some degree but the trailers and stuff im watching for PSO2 look good enough, or at least what I've come to expect from MMOs, especially 9yr old MMOs getting a gameplay facelift.

    Heck, the most recent game I've become addicted too is called "Loop Hero", look that one up.

    There is a huge difference between a stylistic graphic choice and dated bad graphics.

    I guess thats definitely a way you can view it. Regardless, PSO2's graphics just don't look dated or bad to me *shrug*.

    Some Steparu videos that are good quality:

    Gunner Class:

    Fighter Class:

    Mage Class:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_LksynIyWI

    World Exploration:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYA7w0VrTYQ

    I haven't changed my mind about the characters looking like plastic dolls, and the mage looks boring as fuck, but the rest of the game looks nice and I see fun combat in the gunner and fighter classes.

    Yeah, faces are still looking a bit creepy, just like PSO2 lol, but everything else looks pretty great about that world and combat from what I've seen so far.

    edit: Kind of just hoping gear is way less convoluted to deal with in this compared to PSO2. Augment system was just a bit too crazy. Battle pass type stuff also kind of lost me in the original PSO2.

    I'm hoping so too because keeping track of different systems caused me to stop playing. I played PSO since the first but my brain is getting too frosty to deal with all the stats, the augments, the mags, weapon skills and weapons. Too much for me.
