PSZ is connected story-wise to older PS games.

[Tummai]

At the Christmas party that Sega had to launch PSZ, there was a question and answer session. One question asked was "Is there any connection/relation (story-wise) between Phantasy Star Zero and older Phantasy Star games?" to which Sakai answered:

"We announced before that there was no connection between PSZ and the other PS games, but... if you do the quests after you finish the game, and read the story text carefully, I think you will discover that there is some relationship there."

What do you think?

Does this mean that we're playing as the earth-men that end up showing up in PS2? Probably not, if anything along those lines we're playing the people that didn't go on board the noah.


I dunno, but thats the only thing that comes to mind.

That kinda does sound like a possibility. Maybe those who went aboard here the people with power. Since all those PSII earthmen seemed to be pretty selfish bastards who wanted to take over someone else's system. Could be that they fled, because of the war (200 years ago) and the casual people are those who stayed back and build civilization back up? Who knows.

[Epically Leet]

Who knows.

Indeed he does.

Likely some of the story will be written in a way to pay homage to the old PS games.

It could also be a closed loop system with the Alis III landing on earth after hitting a time rift/black hole, which in turn caused the war, which caused the people of earth to go to Algol, which caused the Alis III to get launched.


....Nahhhhh...

Suddenly.... Let's build Mother Brain!

Suddenly.... Let's build Mother Brain!

And use it to take over some neighboring solar system.

And use it to take over some neighboring solar system.

Or rather, use it to build factories on other planets where its citizens would work for below minimum wages to keep production costs low and company income high..... wait..... FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF FFFFFFFFFFFFF
