i play to kill time i guess.
its the only game i really play, well a few weeks ago i bough conker live and reloaded hahaha it still fun to me.

i pretty much use to play alot cause i had alot of really gewd friends and i enjoy the game
i still enjoy the game very much but i guess i dont play it too much, but yeah i solo alot so the community doesnt bother me too much but i do like to play with people sometimes which i find a problem sometimes, i always like to meet new people >.o-b

pso was one of my first online games ever so yeah, the servers closed ( xbox ) not that long from when i got pso so i decided to get psu, thats why i play psu.

in short i have no real reason at the moment but just for entertainment and killing time

Default Why do i PLAY? - 09-08-2008, 07:21 PM

I know this may seem kinda of random. But this is why!


Its about the old school man. I have been dreaming about a game that has everything that PSU has. A unique battle system that i actually work with, not just point and click. Ive been following this series since the Genesis.

OMG, when PSO hit the dreamcast, it changed my life about these types of video games.

Pso.... how i miss thee....sigh.

I like how sega tryed to keep it new, but keep the old school feel of PSO.

I set goals for my self. I Pride my self in developing one of the most powerful HUMANS on PSU. The other classes have extras, but humans dont. I make up for that by lvling everything i possibly can, to the max. PA arts, Weapons, Armor, UNITS. Everything to the THE EXTEAME MAN.

I often find myself hitting harder than a beast or cast, simply because of the dedication i have to building up my char.

Master Ki 140
Currenty Fortegunner
Fav is Fighgunner.

As Fighgunner i hit 4000+ with my double sabers. 2000 - 3500 average with various arts.

I could go fortefighter and hit 6000+ with my agito 7/7, but the game is less fun when i do that.

Granted i cant take a hit like a beast can, or shoot as accurate as a cast(even though o rarely hit 0's). Or nuke everything on the screen with a Hadoken look-a-like Lighting bolt (i think it looks like a hadoken, very cool) like a NEUMAN can.

But rest assured, i deal REAL DAMAGE that most dont hit. Not no just knockin them off the feet all the time, and picking them apart slowly. Im talkin about 1 combo or less on any givin enemy.


When im fortegunner, the weakness of being a human start to show, but that doesnt stop me. I keep getting more powerful. Now i can hit 900's with my rifle, and critical 1200's. I still dont understand why i cant attack time my gunz. I could do it in PSO, but thats really the only gripe i have about this game. Besides the JAPANESE being spoon fed everything.

I dont know, there is always something i havnt max out. A axe pa, or something.

I will admit that ive taken a small break because of the lack of new content. But once the master classes are here, i will be back regulary.




PS.... I play on Xbox now. Used to play on pc, but the hacking was too much for me. If you have played the pc version, you know what they can do there. No need to talk about that here.

Anyways peace dudes.

If you start your grind at something like WOW or FFXI , you stuck there forever!! It is endless hell of grind, and it will take over all of your activity time.
This. With 15 minutes, you can do a lot in PSU...find a party, get some decent xpo and mp, maybe even get a rare item, then you can put it down to do other things afk or go to work/class, etc. You can even play another game on the side and still accomplish much in PSU.

It's the fact you can easily pick it up and put it down that brought me here from FFXI. FFXI was your life if you played. If you wanted to get all of the best gear endgame, getting to endgame requiring vast amounts of time itself, you had to sacrifice a lot of time and effort to your linkshell. Some linkshells purposely recruited members from around the world...even forced some of their members to sickly violate their sleeping schedules just to camp a 21-24hr spawn Dragon they weren't even gauranteed to get so they could stay in line for certain items.

No way, nu-uh. Not me.


Haven't posted here in ages. Making a new sig.

Dude seriously, if you wanna spit your opinions on this game dying, do it in the rants forum. I could give 2 shits what someone says on a internet forum about a game I enjoy.

That's my bottom line. I enjoy this game, I enjoy the gameplay, I enjoy the friends I have on it, I enjoy the small community. You wanna quit or tell your buddy to quit over some stupid item hunting, go ahead. I enjoy this game for what it is. If you don't, gtfo.

Anyway, i dont play psu too much. Ive been on halo 3 lately destroying people. PSU is fun in bursts. And only if your getting what you want. By that i mean parum gbr for us gunners. I think the reason this game went to heck is because of this neudaiz event. Now, every techer in the game has no reason not to have a good pallete. What sucks more? When the parum gbr comes out, everyone will have those 12 star gunner weapons too.

Also, to cracka J.... i think its his opinion. You cant tell him what to do. Rants is for people who like to start stuff..like umm......you. SO ease off and leave him alone.

I just found another reason why PSU = yay. Rifle bullets > 31. Sweeeeeeeeeeeet. But seriously, it's nice that if I get tired of clawing things to death, I can switch things up and pump them full of photons from afar. There's actually a nice amount of variety between the main types.

Exactly, it's his opinion. None of what he posted is actual fact, it's all opinion based, non factual information that he's trying to push on a community that still enjoys this game. That's a rant, buddy. Not something that belongs in general.

Also, if there's so many other games that are superior to this, why is he still posting in a forum for the damn game instead of just moving on and playing his superior bs? The answer is simple: to troll. This thread was made simply to stir up emotions of people who still play and enjoy the game, and it's doing the job. That's why I said it should be moved to rants, because none of this is factual information. It's just somebody's opinion who doesn't even play the game anymore (or does very little), and wants to stir up a crowd.

If he wants to do that, whatever, that's on him.
But don't get pissed at me cause I'm calling him out on it.

I enjoy this game and keep coming back to the PS series because of their fun colorful outlook on sci fi. some may say thats a stupid reason compaired to play style, amount of content, what-not, but i'm so bored of dreamy fantasy middle earth style, and realistic future style is also boring to me. i feel like PS series is a hybrid of disney's Tron, and Blade Runner. it offers up some of the lush environments of a fantasy game, with all the energy based, glowing, hard edged weaps and armor of blade runner, all the while keeping the cool design that they have built on over the last decade. or more.

there are few game series that have built on their own style as much as PS has. from making up their own weapon types (and sticking with them) to color design and in game culture.

thats one of the main reasons I play. I do like the game-play, the rares, and the community, but if all of those things were awesome, and the style was different, I wouldn't play

(this is the same reason I liked HALO, which also sucked, because once the flood came out, it was like glow go by by, hello dreary dank darkness)
