@Ronnie21093 really? ohhhhh we might be on different ships, i forgot about that. i'm on ship 2 :P

@beardalaxy I'm also on Ship 2.

@Ronnie21093 oh, huh. i can't remember if you need acc name or character name though, so if it's character name then it's "damaris"

@beardalaxy I believe both work.
Is this you? There are multiple "Damaris" that show up, but only one has an ARKS card

@Ronnie21093 >that font

ooooohhhhh you're on JP huh??? that would make sense. yep, i'm on global :P

@beardalaxy Ooooh. Yeah, that would explain why I couldn't find you.

@Ronnie21093

I'd say I'd install JP to play with ya, but I already have enough on my hands with one version of the game

@beardalaxy Fair enough. I stick to JP because I've been playing this version for years. I think I started around the release of Episode 2 or 3?
Btw, send me a screenshot of what your character looks like.

@Ronnie21093 oh dang yeah, that's a long while. i don't blame ya for sticking on it. i played a year of JP but when global came out i wanted to start fresh and not need to jump through a bunch of hoops to get AC.

here's my current look!

@beardalaxy Nice!
While not the main reason, one reason I stick to JP is because I have costumes from collabs that I doubt are available anymore or are even more pricey now than they used to be.

@Ronnie21093 yeah, what about your character?

Yeah that's also very true. It's even true for Global. I can only imagine how crazy it gets with JP. Especially the collabs that Global never got like Evangelion. They even have Zelda stuff since you can play the game on Switch over there.

After using the NGS style for a while though, I'm pretty confident I won't ever wear my PSO2 outfits again. I like the NGS body and updated looks in general so much more. I do have some pretty cool unique weapon camos from PSO2 though that I really like and the accessories still look good.

@beardalaxy Will send you a screenshot after this concert I'm watching in-game.

I haven't really found any costume I'd wanna swap my current one out with, but admittedly I haven't really been looking.

@beardalaxy Here is my character.

@Ronnie21093 nice! she smol :3

@beardalaxy Yes. I also found an old screenshot of when I started. I started playing in December of 2015.

@Ronnie21093 wowza! that's super cool :D

not as old, but i do have a couple shots from JP too. it's funny because i didn't even know the second game existed, i picked up PSO on gamecube to play local with my friends and we grinded the hell out of it. then like a few months later i think it was at E3 they announced global was coming out so i hopped on JP right away!

@beardalaxy I never got the chance to play the original PSO.
My first Phantasy Star game was PSP.

@Ronnie21093 i would have never found out about it if i didn't have my mates over and have us all wondering if there was an RPG we could play in local co-op haha. now i'm hooked xD

@Ronnie21093 i'll look at pretty much every scratch that comes out and see if anything looks nice. that outfit is from the newest one. i haven't gotten a new outfit for a while though since i've got a pretty good variety already and most of the stuff coming out is similar enough to what i have.
