I think it'll be fine, and it'll advance over time. Just like PSO2 has, it didn't start out this fluid like we got it now.
As for the other games linked, they look flashy, but what I remember from Vindictus. At it's core, it was very shallow.
Blue Protocol isn't even out yet, and they are still trying to flesh out the game.
We did get this game like 8 years worth in like 9 months. We are going to have a lull of some kind. That's sadly just not avoidable. I don't agree the recommended quest are bad, as you got 3 that rotate, which are fairly nice to do.
But like other games do, it's fine to take a break. The game will still be around, if you don't you can always find the time to hang around with friends, or whatever you might wanna do.
At least give us the outfits from PSO2es in a scratch.
What a gross take, just because you can't i frame yourself or learn her patterns, means very little in terms to the usual content outside the minmax fights. There are still casual content being made, this game will still stay pretty casual.
It's like playing FFXIV if you can't do Ultimate, should you just quit? No, that level of content is not for you, and well... that's okay. You'll still be able to progress without it, as there are many different weapons, and gear being released.
At the core PSO2 is still extremely casual, and it's mostly going to remain that way.
Because the rule doesn't really apply, like JP didn't get Story mode the same way we did. Why is it too much to just ask for proper notification what's going to be in the upcoming patches, and when?
It's terrible communication, that's the issue Sure JP didn't get Yamato right away, but they also didn't have skill rings, layered wear until EP4, but we did. So goes back to why couldn't they have just said something at least. Even the Persona Concerts got no main page up. I wouldn't have known about them if I didn't read my discord.
We got a bare roadmap, it says nothing about Yamato UQ date, or any actual date. I'm sorry, I guess I was just spoiled by the group that knows how to handle their own game properly.
But we do love surprise another AC scratch. Can we not know about them a week or something beforehand?
Why do our patch notes have to be garbage? Are they still not going to fix the bugs? We got no confirmation on that, other than "We'll pass it along to the dev team" That's just lol bad.
It's catching up, but it's a jank asf experience. It's not really fun, we are just going through the motions.
The lack of communication this version of the game has gotten is gross. You really can't look forward or plan anything until maybe the week or sometimes the day the content is out. It's oddly slow, the lack of a end goal also is an issue with the major power creep we have.
We didn't get the battle ship EQ yet, because reasons. But yet, we also got no notification of that being a thing. It's a good thing some can datamine, but they don't want that happening either, they'd rather surprise the players.
There really was no reason to hold back crafting, when we already had most of EP4's QoL updates. We still got subpar weapon descriptions, items missing text for their names. But they WILL make sure SG stuff isn't tradable, because they would benefit the players, and that's not okay.
Still can't stand how much they wanna lock away content behind SG's I stopped using them outside of Mission Pass Gold.
Our Client is basically on EP6, it's just missing content, so it's expected the skill tree would resemble that, outside of stuff that's behind levels we can't reach yet.
It's nice we got PSO2 in english, but this is not that different from what we had to deal with, from PSU. Just leaves a 
when you think about it.
With EP4 here, here's hoping some new faces wanna see a friendly group~
Name: Kaleidoscope
Leader: Hanakotoba
Manager: BlazeLatias
Type: Semi-Casual/Light progression Focus/Having Fun
Active Timezone: EST/CST Almost mostly do a lot of irregular logins~
Alliance requirements: Despite being a semi-casual alliance we are looking for players that are 100% or close to ready for Episode 4’s Launch so we can all partake in the content together. Our alliance consists of both NA players new to PSO2 and some jp vets so anyone is welcome as long as you meet the above requirements. If you are looking for a social alliance and like PSO2 you will be more then welcome to join!
Our alliance consists of 5 players currently so were small but all of us are more than happy to help out and play together whenever we all get the chance to do so.
To clarify all you really need to be ready for Ep4 with us is to just have a few capped classes so you can do XH content with the rest of the alliance outside of that you don’t really need anything special.
If you don't we have members that don't mind lending a hand to help, the most important part about the game is having fun after all.
If you are looking for small, but warm group feel free to contact me on discord Hanakotoba#6391~
