Just wanted to start a thread to express my enthusiasm for the game... and also my confusion as to why it gets such a hard time.
To be honest, perhaps 2006 was just a tough year for Sega and Sonic Team because Yuji Naka left, which left some of the games like PSU and Sonic '06 a bit more muddled.
However, here are the pros and cons of PSU as opposed to PSO, as I see them:
Pros:
- Voice chat
- More social areas and more variety of social areas (club, pub, casino and so on)
- Personal rooms and shops
- Obviously, improved graphics and so on
Cons:
- Less captivating storyline
- Class system seemed a bit overly complicated and required magic "weapons" to do magic attacks
- More expensive to play
I really don't know of any more cons. I do think the storyline was more engaging in PSO, but I found PSU an incredibly immersive, social and expansive gaming experience that I will never forget.
I am bewildered as to why people give it flak. I'll admit it would have been nice to see more development from PSO, but that's not a con as such.
Anyway, awesome game, and I hope to find some kind of private server like EGS to play around on in future
