[PSO2:NGS] NGS Headline Recap (October 1, 2024)

[@keroppi]

Added in the Bloopers cuz Chat requested it: 26:42

[@wandererchannel9953]

THAT EXPRESSION THOUGH KERO BRO HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Very noice bloopers yus! And thanks for the headline recap

[@PASomethingorOther]

hahaha what a blessing

[@Malphorus]

nice, also funny. do it again funny man. keep up the good work lol

[@707zacbuster]

Increased accessory slots but didn’t increase the cost?? WHATS THE POINT IF WE DONT HAVE ENOUGH COST TO ADD MORE ACCESSORIES!?

[@ClassXero]

IKR?!

[@LordFrostDeath]

That INSTANTLY pissed me off. We don't care about extra SLOTS. 12 is plenty. But that's absolutely USELESS without extra POINTS.

[@BlackHorse321323]

idk man 18 slot N-sphere booba enjoyers are having a blast with this update.

[@spark9189]

they've already said the cost is from engine limitations, likely in part due to ngs being built on decade old code

[@HMNNO]

​@@LordFrostDeathdevs said it adds instability if cost increase

[@Ovonx]

Been out of pso2 for so long and the first video i get when im thinking of getting back in to it kero is the first video I get in my feed

[@PikangsFutaba]

Exelio in seasonal shop... yup, I'm lucky I haven't made the upgrades at all, but those I have obtained would be fixa fodder attempts if necessary... or just Multi-Weapon shenanigans.

[@jobetraymundo6071]

Fixa 5 is easy next week

[@somfplease]

multiweapon anything sounds awesome.

[@millgiass]

Damn, they update the salon and they don't make ear size and position/body proportions save to looks? That kinda annoys me. I hate clipping and I went through the effort of adjusting my newman's big ass ears so that they didn't clip with her hair in various looks. Only to find out it didn't save them.

[@mramisuzuki6962]

Why wouldn’t your ears save?

[@ThePopo543]

That's probably because ear size and body proportions need a salon pass to change

[@andreagale1389]

Because body edits don't save to looks. You save that in the other option in salon, I forget what it's called ATM but you get like five free slots. Looks are your clothing items. They don't need to do that when they already have a option for saving body types

[@Vex505]

The dev section mentioned they will tell us about the armors other upgrade paths in the next NGS headline, October the 29th I believe. So I will farm those 50 and 100 materials and wait.

[@squiddingsquid674]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAA FINALLY NEW CAST PARTS!!!!! i'ma blow my 100 mil meseta on that

[@clarissejunqueira1994]

ok, so they made me buying a pool useless as they added the water thingy. i can now make the perfect pool

[@lightnbrightt]

as dry as this game is the focus on exploration zones is actually a good thing imo, i hope instead of the future planets (if we ever get any) just being a one and done thing with combat zone grind everyone hates, i hope we get more dynamic and interesting exploration zones with combat zones just being a place to get consistent rewards fr grinding or whatever and then maybe 1 or 2 new dungeon type modes that are well thought out like palace of the dead from ff14 or something akin to that, something replayable and something NOT IN A CACOON EVERYONE HATES THOSE THINGS PLEASE DESIGN ACTUAL LEVELS if they do that i think the game would do a lot better even though it still needs a lot of work when it comes to basic combat and leveling not really having any meaning etc

[@ZeroTwo-oni-princess]

The update let us down again, no surprise there. However, one positive note is that the PSO burst system won't decrease from 4 to 3 anymore, and I've heard it's going to last longer, which means more farming money - that's a plus. The highlight for me was definitely that change. The weapons they're releasing, though, are mostly repeats from last year, and I already have all of them. As usual, clothes and cosmetics are locked behind a paywall. I understand the need for funding updates, and I'm all for supporting that. But the free items we get are often things people already have. I still firmly believe they should offer one selector ticket from AC each month, allowing you to choose at least one item, or at least give one free pull each time there's an event. It doesn't seem like a difficult decision and would show some appreciation for free players. Not everyone can afford to play the scratches. That would be a worthwhile gesture. And let's not even start on the questions they chose to answer. My goodness. However, the 'create a space' feature did look interesting - that's another positive. But aside from that, it's the same old routine once more.

[@princecharming8125]

Stop being lazy. I spent two years farming money in game just to get paywall cosmetics and clothes other. All my stuff designer havent even spent $100 real world yet

[@ZeroTwo-oni-princess]

​@@princecharming8125You've been playing for two years, and that's your takeaway? Do you realize how many hours I've invested in this game? Far more than two years, I must admit. And no, I don't spend money on games either. Yet, I've acquired all the main outfits, cosmetics, and everything else available that I desire. This discussion is for casual players or those who can't afford to play the game, or for those who want certain items but can't acquire the resources due to players who, like you, place items in shops at exorbitant prices, making them unaffordable. So, please consider the context before you dismiss the comments with your room-temperature IQ. It's not about laziness; it's about recognizing that not everyone lives at home without a job in their mother's basement. Your comment really betrays your youth.

[@NoU-wc5ny]

@@princecharming8125 not everyone wants to waste time grinding like that in a mid tier live service game that's only viable if NGS is one of the only online games you play, and the game isn't good enough for that :P

[@ZeroTwo-oni-princess]

@@NoU-wc5nyLOL, I have to concur with on that point. Although, when I replied, my comment was deleted - it is what it is, I suppose. But yes, I agree. Not everyone is willing to invest so much time or effort into a game that, frankly, lacks substantial content these days. And indeed, I don't see the harm in Sega providing us with one selector ticket per month, or offering a free draw from the AC scratch. I believe that's a reasonable suggestion. However, some people label this as laziness.

[@daviddave6796]

Just doing daily weekly is enough to buy anything really. Also get mission pass. But I honestly don’t understand why they don’t have currency exchange for AC and SG to meseta auction.

[@XxArkitaxX]

I thought I seen expedition quests 😂 had me hype for a moment

[@rezaaulia6863]

i really appreciate if you keep the blooper section😆 and as always thank for your great video

[@HeavyBreeze]

Kero still hoping for this 12* weapon lol.

[@dominicevans5219]

He can’t help himself😂😂😂😂

[@15kalas15]

Sounds like the first actual W in something like 2 years that they will almost surely turn into dead content 2-3 months from now with more vertical progression.

[@andreagale1389]

What was the W lmao

[@HoDKenji]

say said good reward...shadow drop 12star xD never upgrade your weapon on day1. if you have no high fixa on your weapon/units you should boost the fixa on the base item, cause if you want to enthance your fixa on the upgraded version you have to make new upgraded versions to use them for enthance the fixa. In fact it makes upgrading fixa later of the line harder. Ill use my eredim which has my highend capsules from my wingard which got the augs cause of wasted pass to transfer to weapon and my 3 passes goes for the units.

[@8mitsu_biteki]

Are we able to transfer the enhancements from our Eredim weapons to Exelio, or do we have to fully upgrade an Exelio 😅

[@Zero-kc6eh]

I know ima a little behind from hurricane helene buuuut I hope they have the same ST for the haunted domain as last year

[@thatmeanscene]

It’s just one sector. And it’ll be empty in less than a month.

[@FollowTheFaceless]

Why they just can't add weather to Creative Spaces?

[@symbiotex1751]

For the same reason why they can't new class or let alone new pa or tech.and more accessories point. 😂

[@FollowTheFaceless]

@@symbiotex1751 Fun part is that I've seen solo indie devs who rolling out more content on regular basis than Sega for their seemingly most profitable game. That's a shame.

[@ShiroCh_ID]

@@FollowTheFaceless problem is company has this tendency of that "Productive" environment where theres this division doing single thing and this leader who report to its superior(this case probably NGS producer and Phantasy star supervisor or whataver that one guy who once apologizing before Ver.2 is) and this kind of thing actually slows down the production too, especially if it has many variables like how NGS has with its playerbase compared to say, FFXIV. while the idea of that system meant to makes the job work faster it is already prooven that it was the reverse is hapening, like everywhere and anywhere. but yeah i also dont like how the heck Indie devs can actually makes more content than a big company other than the usual "greed" or any of that thing since thats the point of a company, made to be Provitable especially for the investors. But the way thing progress is actually counter productive as we see in Mineraft with Mojang Studios ft. Micorosoft or NGS with PS:Crew ft.SEGA and i may have less unbderstanding in economy space, but arent this kind of system and slowdowns actually turns down the playerbase making them move on into other "Fun" games wich in turn less provits even if its just a "negehible" 1%? not to mention this game is not a competitive games where even without content and just balancing the playerbase wouldnt much care enough

[@gokenji1194]

I'm still hoping of NPC pathing. So it looks a bit more alive.

[@Basojin]

23:00 took them almost 4 years.

[@Goldmask-lm2sy]

I know right.......truly in sega time....at least far better than valve time hahaha

[@christophermedeiros2971]

Really enjoyed the bloopers haha

[@ShiroCh_ID]

lol, took them this long just to add some sprinkles into Stia TuT well it is what it is i guess

[@YuuhiTheRed]

The Techter updates got my attention at least. I'm discovering a lot of things in there that might help out the class a lot more. Even a bit more support with Wand Revoke, lol. As for the gear upgrades, we'll have to wait and see what the Potential is for the weapon. But they did say it's already stronger than Wingard, so I guess it's time to get my Wand all worked out. The armor however... I'm not entirely sure yet. I still need to get a 3rd Augment Transfer Pass somehow and I haven't gotten a good fixa yet. And once we upgrade the Ektasis/Exelio gear: Do we even know if we can still use Ektasis/Exelio as material to upgrade our Fixas on the Dostasis/Duo Selio? Because if not, I can easily imagine it'll be ridiculously more difficult to upgrade the Fixa on our gear at that point. And also.... We finally have WATER!!! Move aside, pools! No more having to use you in awkward ways anymore. All we still need right now are waterfalls, so we can say the same to the fountains.

[@carlosballesteros2574]

I thought Eredim was going to have an improvement too 😂

[@ThePopo543]

Ok so they added accs slots but the cost is still 18 max. At least tweak some of the old accs costs that don't make sense, like base sphere is 3 points when ngs sphere is 1 point, and heart earring is 2 points but star earring is 1 point despite both of them being pretty much the same accessory with a different shape. What the f sega? Edit: to make a smug smile, go to mouth shape adjustment, lift up both corners of the mouth till it smiles, then make the right corner higher than the left corner, or vice versa. You can also lower the eyelids a bit and maybe wear angry eyebrows or high eyebrows. And there you go! Your char is doing a 😏 face!

[@Danthrax40]

"SG is at a premium right now" Is it, though? I still have a ton of it and hardly anything to spend it on.

[@maxrosefoxanime7225]

It so hard to wanna play the game because it just feels like a pointless grind

[@ellion8195]

Unpopular opinion, but I'm okay with the EX items being gated. As long as it is not a one-of-a-kind weapon camo/outfits such as kaiju 8 or Kenshin's Sakabato. Better if they just offered EX versions like special particle effects or a more detailed outfit texture. EX should mean (Extra).

[@andreagale1389]

I mean idk if that's unpopular but yea, it would be fine because we can still get a version of the item. When I saw Kaiju 8 MC was paywalled ngs lost some of my respect and interest. Literally the only thing that the game has going for it is fashion and now they're going to start ruining that too. I always make a crossover character from most of the crossovers, this time I was going to make Kikoru and then the mc because I started liking him. Saw it was paywalled and just said wow

[@itzpurple_queen9711]

Too many sports scratches, I’m so fed up with them tbh.

[@pauldat123]

Honestly only interesting thing here was techter update.

[@LuxDivina__]

aaaaaayyyyy~! lets goooooo! Finally bloopers XD thanks for the vid!

[@social3ngin33rin]

Exelio? I'm still using my eredim lol Idk how we can zoom in even more lol so we'll be looking at the threads in clothes now? Yay water!!! Lol

[@andreagale1389]

Tbh you're fine with eredim if it's properly upgraded, at least for now

[@Surfing_Life]

200% RDR = 3% (Really)

[@astrosagreed695]

Rdr increases the amount of loot that you get not direct percentage

[@mcmason96]

The bloopers 😂

[@dwiputra6183]

I bet this whole update only last for 2 to 3 weeks and after that players already got bored with the content. Sega really work at a very slow slow pace compared to another JRPG online game. For example the problem with the PSE meters that always drop, sega only fix it just now meanwhile this problem should have been fixed for years ago. Well I'm not expect anything from sega if they still working slow like this

[@kingkazma3246]

Does the weapon Motion Change reflect your weapon?

[@TadTheChad]

Welp... I am finally disappointed enough to quit this fkn game 😆

[@jobetraymundo6071]

Then quit and don't come back , I heard that line so many times 😂😂😂😂 and then come back after a month

[@seikatsuxei8176]

​@jobetraymundo6071 don't be mad at him, we only get like 1.5 hours worth of content a year while og jp base pso2 had content every month or so.😂

Lol people quit all the time buddy. You just don't see it​@@jobetraymundo6071

[@ElComanche]

Great breakdown man.

[@Iamyungshinra]

Thanks for the info appreciate it

[@shionaurelius2780]

dont care but fun fact i boped into a funny glitch that had color variants bungled up for a moment and was able to look at some weapons and camos of a color thats not suposed to be and realized that color variancy is already embeaded on weapons to change into any color. but idk why in heck they dont just allow it on CV camos at least? no M bloomers or cheerleader clothes bumer?

[@-Noko-Noko.]

32 People using a Hydra Cannon on a Single Boss .. like BOOM DELETED! Ok i trust you

[@Zemythian]

Dang…doesnt look all that good for an update. Still barely anything to do

[@ZeroTwo-oni-princess]

LOL, I just wanted to share this because I finished watching the video, well, the last 30 minutes of it anyway. Regarding the Q&A segment, it seems like Sega has exposed themselves. I don't believe those were actual player questions. We have open messengers that display messages over our character's head, like 'I'll be right back,' right? So, couldn't we just use that instead? Honestly, I don't think anyone playing is concerned about others thinking they're being ignored. That might be the case on servers in other countries, but on a global server, we all know that's not the issue. Anyway, that's my two cents. Sadly, it looks like Sega and PSO2 are done for. They really blew it.

Ain't those playing Line Strike have an icon above their head already? Which kinda means that they are busy and can't answer. Yeah, some questions are 100% made up.

Yeah....I'm sorry I still have no desire to use the MARS system and I will probably just skip or pass on any content that forces me to do so because I just don't want to.

[@osopotato1698]

I forget I have the damn thing 😂

[@symbiotex1751]

Its ok its was supposed to be a special ability for cast only anyway the fact that any race can use it make it werid and not thaht interesting or special

[@andreagale1389]

​@@symbiotex1751 don't this is true. I remember when mars was first previewed up until now and they never mentioned that. They also don't have any information at all online to support that, I'd imagine if it was actually said by the ngs team there would be something. Not to mention it doesn't even make sense since this game doesn't really separate characters by races, so there isn't even a system to support what you're saying. There's t1 and t2

[@symbiotex1751]

@@andreagale1389 that exacly what a said therse no system to separete race every body is the same its bland and boring and make no sense that crap type 1 and 2 is real joke we all know thers only male and female . They shoud if keep the race thing like psu would been way more interesting than the current situation

[@andreagale1389]

@@symbiotex1751 lmao what?... That's literally not what you said.. I suppose you did say the second part of my comment but I'm talking mainly about you saying they were going to make it a cast exclusive ability. what you said was they were supposed to add it for cast, not that they were supposed to add it for cast but didn't because of etc. . T1 and T2 are male and female, it doesn't need to specifically say male/female. As for the races, yea it would be nice if we had them more specifically set up like normal mmorpgs but it would only matter if they had special traits or something. For the most part though it's fine. But yea, like I was saying, they never said it was supposed to be for cast so you just made that up. Had to clarify for anyone who saw that comment since I knew it wasn't true.
