I was just wondering which version of pso2 should I make a account for and play. I was kind of leaning toward the play park version since it already in English and I don't have to apply any patches. It seems that most players on this forum play on the Japanese version of pso2 and I really just want to go with the one with the largest amount of English players.

The Sea version requires the use of a VPN or proxy unless you live in the Sea region.
It is also very behind, and doesn't have an Android/google way of purchasing Ark Cash.

Japanese version depends on ISP, if your isp can access pso2.jp, then you don't need a VPN/Proxy, if you cant, there are multiple mothod.

Also the majority of English community(This forum, reddit, and 4chan) plays on the Japanese version, which has the latest update and way more content.

SEA is basically Asiasoft's shit AND Sega's shit piled together

JP is just Sega's shit

Except in JP version some of SEGA's shit already flushed down.

JP version since the tweaker can patch the game in english for you and the SEA version is fucking garbage

Play the JP version it's ahead on content, it's not run by shitty Asiasoft and with Aida's Tweaker you get the English/Item patch and your sorted.

Knowing what they did with RO2, I would avoid playing with Asiasoft. They made the game way more p2w than the original version, pretty much to the point of 'allowing' RMT. They screwed the game up completely from a management POV. There's no happy ending either, the economy became uncontrollably inflated, most of their players quit, and they eventually dropped hosting the game.

It's worth the trouble setting up proxies and stuff to play PSO2 JP. The game is well known in Japan and I think this server is the least likely to die over time.
