PSO2 – Phantasy Star Thanks Festa PSO2 teaser! [Updated + Video]
During the Thanks Festa being broadcast through Nico Nico, Sakai gave a very nice PSO2 teaser, a teaser with gameplay footage.
I’m gonna type in what I saw in that, roughly, 3 to 4 minute long footage, and will add a video link once one pops up.
Update: video at the bottom of the article!
-forest like area, similar to PSO Forest, but considerably more lush and vibrant
-character design was similar to what we currently have in PSU/PSP2/Infinity, but with a slight more “PSO flavor”
-combat system apparently was MASSIVELY overhauled, there’s JUMPING now
-at a glance, the combat system can be described as the offspring of “PSP2 Infinity” and “God Eater Burst” with sprinkles of “Shining Force Cross” all over it
-ground combos leading into aerial combos was seen in a few parts of the videos, reminiscent of what we see in “God Eater Burst” and “Shining Force Cross”
-ranged/gun combat is completely different, you can move, aim and shoot at the same time in a view similar to “above the shoulder” but slightly more zoomed out (at least for the ranged weapon/gun shown in the video, others may behave differently)
-weapon was shown sheathed on the character’s back in a few scenes (can weapons be put away now? or is it just how they appear outside combat areas?)
More as I watch the video a few more times!
