I hate to say it but I'm increasingly feeling like cancelling this game for NA/EU release was a very good move by Sega of America.
The game is simply subpar compared to what western gamers expect.
It might fly with Japanese otaku, but if Sega of America were to release PSO2 only to never release any challenging content, never release any balancing patches, never listen to feedback, and only trickle gachapon cash shop costumes out over the course of a year... raise level caps without giving those high level players anything to do... all hell would break loose.
Mark my words. If Sega localizes PSO2, the Phantasy Star franchise will lose any credibility it has in the west. It will become a laughing stock.
