PS:Zero,Prequel? Sequel? Spin Off?

[Quintus_The_Force]

Sorry for the new thread people (not much action here anyways, what a shame) but for some reason, by DSi times out when I type a reply inside a thread, so when I post it, it asks me to log in, then it logs in and my reply is erased, I retype it and it asks me to log in, its a very frustrating cycle so if I dont respond, now you know why... lol im here people, trust me, and I appreciate your help

(how do I get an icon here?)


ANYWAYS DOWN TO BUISNESS!

PS:Online had a Level max of 200...is Zero the same? I hope so...

If all 3 characters saved to the Zero cartridge share an Item storage (which is convenient as hell) I hope it can hold more than 200 items (PS:Online) it better be more like..600 or atleast 400...right? Cuz I know I like to collect 1 of every Special Weapon, and stock up on grinders and what not...anybody know what the bank limit is?

Will there be theives and what not online due to hacking like in Online Ep1&2?

Hunters Guild (side)Quests? W/ DLC? lol yeah right huh

Thanks Again

The character cap is level 100 in this game, and it can apparently be reached in a month of spamming (but most people are sick of the game by then) or two months of casual play. I haven't played the game myself, but that seems to be the general consensus. This seems to be a watered down, portable version of Phantasy Star Online with a couple features from Phantasy Star Universe tossed in there.

ONLY A 100?! WTF

you say it can be reached in a month..spamming? How do you spam in a Phantasy Star game...I dont get it...

w/out spamming, how long will it take to max out a character?

thanks Furrypaws

I mean like devoting every hour of your time to the most EXP saturated levels.

I think the general consensus was that if you played an hour or two (or three) a day, you'd probably hit cap in about two months.

I personally think this is a lot, especially for 64mb. Who knows, maybe we'll see a future version on the Wii or a future version with DSi content. This will most likely end up with a sequel eventually, that's for sure.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Well hold on there.. Technically, Zero is a Prequel to Phantasy Star on Genesis, so there is a sequel! Several actually, all the way up to 4 on Genesis...

But seriously, Im already hoping for a Phantasy Star Zero Episode 2 *crosses fingers

I cant find a good enough hands on preview/review of zero in english, IGN, Gamespot, gamefaqs, cheapassgamer, gamer limit, 1up, they all were a little helpful, i dunno, i just cant get enough info to satisfy my appetite for Zero

You realize that a level cap is almost entirely aesthetic right? As in it takes a huge amount of time to get to level 80 in WoW, but just because the level cap is lower doesnt mean squat?

But I have heard its much faster to reach level 100 in PSZ than it was in PSO v.1. But thats to be expected, since developers tend to see handhelds as less of a time investment than console games. I find that ideology HUGELY flawed, as do many others, but if you want a handheld that eschews that system, go out and buy Shining Soul 2. That game actually took effort to cap a character.

Dammit Atlus, just announce Shining Soul 3 for DS with WiFi already. And on top of that why not you actually market for once?!

No it's not.

[Quintus_The_Force]

No it's not.

LMAO, ummmm yes it is...Zero takes place atleast a thousand years before Phantasy Star on genesis, the reason I know that is because Dark Falz returns every 1K years, plus they speak about the times on Earth in PS 1 and 2 and 3, had you actually played the genesis games youd know that... its not called Zero for nothing.... LOL @ you saying its not with no explanation.... you fail sir

Hmm... I really hope this game is not something I'll get bored of in a few months. I plan to put as much time as I did into PSO into PSZ. And PSO lasted for years. One of my main hopes is that they'll make a better console version than PSU for wii, so that it'll have free online features.
