I want you to list off as many things you can think of that are better about each game. In a perfect world, SEGA would have kept what was good about PSO, and improved it with their PSU ideas. So basically list off all the positive things that combined would make the perfect Phantasy Star.
PSO Advantage.
Far greater selection of items and weapons.
A more balanced drop rate
(Weak rares somewhat common, Strong rares uncommon, Amazing rares extremely uncommon).
More customized character stats.
-Mags boosted character stats, and those stats could be customized.
-Armour AND sheild items used for defense.
-Armour had 4 slots open for whatever unit(s) you want.
-HP / TP / Power / Evp / Mind / Luck / Def materials would permanently increase your character stats.
Overall quicker pase with quicker attacks and much quicker technique casts.
More usuable regular attacks (non PA).
6 buttons programmable for attacks / techs / items.
Techniques usable through menus
More detailed / sculpted levels, with most having excellent art direction.
Much more emotional music, that matched the mood of the level very well.
Each technique operated in it's own unique way. (i.e barta and zond were very different)
All areas were quick / easy to get to.
TP (or PP) was stored on your character, not individual weapons.
A Much better, more consistent framerate.
Armour req based on lv. not def
Weapons had unique special attacks / abilities
-Some steal health, exp, tp, ext.
-Some shoot technics like foie and gifoie
-Some boost technique power
-Some have unique attacks. i.e Heaven Punisher's beams that shoot down from the sky, or TJS's expanding sphere of death.
PSU Advantage.
Better graphics (on a technical level, not conceptual).
Tech levels based on exp and not the lv of the disk used.
Greater selection of areas.
Greater selection of weapon types.
More techniques (or TECHNICS).
More class and race types.
More customizable characters (on a visual level).
-More hairstyles
-More clothes
-More character creation options
Item presets are on their own separate scroll bar.
Partner Machinery.
Shops / Rooms.
Photon Arts for striking and ranged weapons.
Character controls are more accurate and responsive.
Overall more presets available for technics.9
After looking at everything it seems like PSU is all about more more more. But very little is actually better.
