    Do you think that making extra Characters will cost you extra money like it did in FFXI?

    Do you think we'll only get one Character? or maybe a max of 4 or something?

    Nope because Sega doesnt rip off players the way Square does. (Sega does it in different ways LOL).

    I expect you'll have a set number of character slots. On Blue Burst, you get 4. I think they will use the same number for PSU. Still, that is just speculation since nothing official has been said about that aspect of the game.

    Still, youre not going to have to pay PER character as FFXI is. Thats the most idiotic RPG idea Ive ever heard of.

    A set amount seems likely, and the set amount will probably be more than 1. 4 or 5 seems to be the market standard, though i'd be satisfied with 2 for 10 bucks a month. Not that more would be bad...

    4 would be fine because you could play each species.

    True. Unless you want male & female of each race, then, youd need at least 8. Then, of course there are those that love 1 or 2 races & want to raise them with each class in mind. Naturally, this gets insane. 4-8 would work fine.

    The paying for extra characters thing is FFXI is totally justified, because of the Job system; You didn't have to make another character to play another job. And don't get started on the race issue; it's been proven, time and again, that player skill makes a bigger difference than character race, as far as efficacy with a job goes. :/ More characters in FFXI is basically akin to wasting server space, unless you reeeeeally wanted to change races, have a mule, or share an account with somebody.

    ...Back on topic, I'm pretty sure I read there will be four character slots per account on PSU, which is just enough for everyone to have one character of each race.

    ProTip: To damage your credibility, simply call any of the Phantasy Star games "massively-multiplayer."

    When the game comes out, you get back to me on how many characters you have.

    As for mule chars, I learned the hard way that you need at least one banker char. They REALLY come in handy. If you do this, that leaves possibly only 3 chars to play around with. Odds are everyone will have a main & at least 1 alt. Id just hope that in having say, only 4 chars, theres ALOT of bank space. Thats what Im concerned about.
