Phantasy Star Online

Okay, I checked for threads on this game, but I didn’t see any so sorry if I’m repeating anything.

I am TOTALLY addicted to Phantasy Star Online for the Sega Dreamcast. I just got it the other day, and I’m totally hooked on it…it’s all I want to do…just plop down in front of the TV and play the hell out of it. Is anybody else out there playing this game? The major problem I find is that there are WAAAAAY too many “K3WL D00DZ” online, and it’s hard to find lower level people who are new as well. I guess that’s what I get for waiting so long before picking it up, but I just got a Dreamcast.

I used to play Everquest, but that game ate up even more of my real-life down time, so I’ve finally found a more reasonable online alternative. I just wish Sega didn’t only sell the broadband adaptor through their online store, and at $60 to boot.

:frowning:

You do know that some of the players are using their GS Action Replay to cheat & make their character attributes to the max, right?

Yeah, I’m aware of the cheaters. I’m not into all that, but I did accept some equipment to help me starting out from a “duper”. He offered me the max money, and I thought about it for a sec, and turned him down…but I did take a few thousand though. I feel that getting everything for free takes away all the satisfaction of actually obtaining the items in the game. If other people want to cheat, that’s fine though, 'cause it doesn’t affect my enjoyemnt of the game.

I’ve got a character at my friends house (aptly named Totoro), and it’s such a fun game. I’m only level 3 right now, and I don’t cheat. I find that to be kind of boring. It’s so much more rewarding to beat it regularly.

I just hit level 15, hooray for me!!!

I need help…

Holy CRAP? How did I not play this game before? I just picked up a copy from my friend who was selling off his DreamCast… this game is amazing…

IT’s no Grand Theft Auto III though

But still!
:eek:
