Does anyone have a translation of the actual bosses name?

Dark Falz.



I propose that from now on we will refer to "this boss" as "Dark Fish" as it does not deserve the right to inhereit the name "Falz"

what actual boss are we talking about? Sooo confused... a few out of context quotes and a poll about fish...

I'm surprised Kitty didn't come the minute fish were mentioned...

So now PSO's Dark Falz has a fourth form that we'd never seen before. I imagine that if this form had been in PSO, it would be more widely accepted. Except, that'd probably bring out those who complain about so much rehashing of content. I guess it'll always be a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation for SonicTeam. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif

It's a special boss in the Japanese Maximum Attack G event. Access to it was granted for them reaching the 100,000,000 point marker. Its name is in fact Dark Falz.

if u look carefully this is my picture. i took it the second it spawned and barely got it before kitty ate it http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif



Well now i get it! I knew where there were fish there would be Kitty...

I can't look in the Max Attack G thread because it makes me too sad. I wanna play on the JP servers too! But I don't know how. And I wanna learn Japanese, but I don't think I'd be able to.

Aaaannyway...

Thanks for clearing it up Espio... and now that I know...

If Sega says it's Dark Falz's 4th form, that's what it is.

So is there an animation of Rico floating out of it or something or is it Falz after taking over someone else? As in "you thought it was dead, but it was just biding it's time..."

Well, they don't specifically say this is DF's fourth form. Just a bit of speculation. But, considering that all of this data in the VR simulator found on Ryucross is supposed to be from the timeline of PSO, I think it's safe to assume. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif

I wouldn't get too worried yet. We don't know its roll in the story, we don't know if there will be other forms when the actual mission with it comes out. We don't even know if thats the ultimate evil we'll be fighting yet , it could very well pull a Phantasy STar 4. Time will tell

I myself am quite excited for this boss http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

that or it is Dark Falz form -1. i.e. the orginal form that infected Red Ring Rico, I could understand if the pioneer 1 ppl could make a VR sim baised on the form that terrorized them and not the form that It took later.

that or it is just a semi-lazy reskin http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif lol

Laughing happily that you have a chance to fight an all new version of Falz rather than the same chewed and thrown up version of her that ST has used since V1?

Im not complaining about it anymore, as I just tell myself that it is just the dark falz that rico got infected by.

but I'm still calling it "Dark Fish" for the lulz

Fanboy, it's what's for breakfast.

Nomnomnom!

hehe, seriously though, i think it looks pretty awesome, not having ever played PSO online, i missed a great deal of content, so i never really stuck with it. If this is a larval form of Dark Falz, or something completely new and rediculous that just has the same name. I don't care. i just want to kill it!

Quote from Heathcliff Flowen's Journal


...
The first time I encountered "IT"...
That was when...
We were well into the excavation process of the ancient spaceship.
We were researching the remains of an ancient civilization on Ragol...
To find technology that could help advance our science.
That was our mission.
At least, I was led to believe that was our mission.
While terraforming and construction of the Central Dome proceeded
on the surface... The excavation project continued in secret.
No one could've imagined the huge project going on right under them.
After long hours of hard labor, the excavation team finally made it
into the interior of the ancient spaceship.
But the celebration ended shortly after.
We encountered "IT."
...
Everyone on the excavation team died.
No one has ever made it back from the ancient spaceship since then.
We were finally able to confirm the existence of a hostile lifeform.
With this knowledge, we created an attack plan to remove the creature.
I will never forget.
"IT" crawled up from a vast abyss of darkness.
It appeared to be mutating as it moved toward us.
It looked like its "body" was cycling through the stages of life and death.
...
The force under my command was completely demolished.
I managed to escape, but...
I was badly injured.
My wounds move, as if they were somehow alive."
I'd almost believe that my wounds were consuming my body to take control.
...

This is the form of Falz that we heard about but never fought in PSO.

Oh, shhh, I was messing with you.

And, yeah, I'm pretty excited to flesh out the dark falz character... it's always been so limited- evil guy... but what does IT feel? Maybe we'll get a little back story...

Kidding- sorta.

So many pretentious theories. How many of you have played Phantasy Star before Online and Universe existed? Dark Falz can take more forms than the three it had in Online.


But since everybody is doing it...

That thing looks like a De Rol Le. This must be the form Falz took when he possessed MOME.

MOME fails so hard I don't think Falz would WANT to possess that loser.

But it makes perfect sense! MOME has shown the ability to play dead SO WELL that stray rocks, tentacles, and just about anything else thrown indirectly at him do not kill him. So when he pulls the act with Falz, what else is the herald of the Profound Darkness left to do? Go through his cycle of "slash, go invincible, slash, fly up high and shoot shit at people before casting Grants, drop down and become vulnerable, lather, rinse, repeat"?

I THINK NOT

Falz is left with no choice but to infect the chunky little scientist. If he doesn't he won't have the chance to meet any other potential hosts since players can't enter the boss fight area if somebody is already in it. =)

MMMMMMMMMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMME!!

Also, if you played ep3, Dark Falz dies and infects a new host with the Germ to create a new, more powerful Falz, also, De Rol Le's differences are easily explained by its rapid mutation, keep in mind that Barba Ray was a simulation of having released it into the ocean.

Mostly though, I think they felt like changing it, new game, new look.

True, but the only Dark Force that has any possibility of surviving past the original story arc is the one that was in PSO.

Path of Evolution
PSIII Dark Force -> PSO Dark Falz -> Ampulam Umbla -> The Germ -> PSU Dark Falz -> The SeeD

No, it really didn't happen. I'm not ignoring it, it just never actually happened. It's based on an optional timeline players *could* have taken in Episodes 1 and 2, but unless you want a crappy scythe, most don't. Episode 4 gives no hints to 3, despite how it comes before 3 chronically.

Episode 3 is all a dream~

Considering that nobody said a word about the Profound Darkness or anything involving the history of Dark Falz in PSO and absolutely no mention of Dark Forces in PSU, saying that this is THE Falz from PSO is a longshot. Especially considering that the three Phantasy Star series have no connections outside of givens like the techniques and a few weapons and enemies.

No? Don't even mention Blue Star Memories, since the entire thing was a promotion for ep3 in the first place.
