I honestly don't get the people that just want PSO with better graphics and more content. We got that, with Ep 2 and Blue Burst. Hell, we got that with Phantasy Star Zero.
And you know what? That little game we played over a decade ago, it hasn't aged as gracefully as your rose tinted glasses are leading you to believe. It's clunky and its dated. It's still good, not denying that, but releasing a game like that today would be like eschewing ten years of game design.
Oh wait, I guess sega did that with PSU.
I guess what I'm saying is, PSO cannot simply be re-released, and PSU was a step in the wrong direction, as was AoI, and PSP, and PSP2. I've heard all the arguements for PSP2 at this point, and the fact is, when it takes you 4 incarnations to get a game to the point that its playable, you were never "fixing" anything, you were polishing a turd the whole time.
So what we need is PSO2 to be fresh. It needs to be a modern action RPG, that takes everything that PSO (and the few thigns PSU) got right, and expand upon them.
But of course, MOST of you knew that already.
