So PSO2:NGS has the new mining base EQ and that of course is present on the base game of PSO2 but it is missing the scoring feature that base PSO2 producer Sakai enthusiastically announced when mining base first came to PSO2 where players craved competition. I do hope that in the near future that the mining base activities will have a scoring system like PSO2.

I know it is still in its early release phase but I do look forward to the trial systems, that is if it comes at all (as long as they're worth the effort like the old trial rewards offered).

Lastly, I know PSO2NA did not get to do this but I do hope we get the PSO2 Ark ship battle events where progressed of each ship was measured by the rappys that would represent each ship as they attempt to meet certain event goals and would race to the finish line

@Weirdo I know right I mean I understand that female costumes are much more popular just look no further by checking the price differences between male and female costumes. The problem is that the player-base is nowhere near a 80 to 20 ratio (female to male) so there really is no reason to neglect players who play male characters and as I said before I would not want them to make a scratch where they drop all cool costumes for males but none for females.

I really do hope that they'll make another AC scratch addition to the trainee line. I still cannot comprehend a new addition to the game and we just release one scratch that is gender specific for a unique theme. I am sure they'll release more unique theme scratches with all genders getting a piece but this one still has me salty af since I still cannot get my arks outfit on NA lol.

Nah see I just want them to make my trainee outfit for my male character because that is what I have been waiting for on NA

So the recent Survey wondered about how players spent AC and if they purchase AC/how frequent they do so (Important as it is technically a new service and quarterly assessments will be coming up soon). I can only assume that people do not spend as much money playing PSO2:NGS then they did base PSO2 and there of course are many reasons as to why people spend money on a game.

One thing is that this new scratch has nothing dedicated to the male character players yet the underlying question on the survey seemed to be why you were not spending as much (based on your selection ofc). So as a person who plays the character that aligns with their gender I kind of found it ironic that again this scratch has nothing that would interest me. I am quite sure female costumes sell way more than male costumes but even basic economics lays out not to cut off all possible kinds of revenue generation as long as the cost offset is not meeting a specific threshold (doubt costume creation would generate a massive deficit to even ignore making male versions).

TL;DR I am salty af as I have been wanting a trainee costume since base PSO2 NA and still have not obtained one yet but then we get one with upgraded model assets i.e. trainee attire and it is geared only to female characters. Now of course I want more options not less so I do not want the next scratch to be entirely male dominated too.

Pretty much the title. PSO2 NA team eluded to more voice tickets coming after the PSO2Comi voices dropping yet that aside from kirito/asuna's voice was all that we got.

I understand some collaboration voices being a no but what about voices that come from the actual PSO2 game release? Ever since I played on JP I had used Xeno's JP voice (Since 2013 or 2014) and I would love to use it again because it sounds nice since it gives the "I am the main protagonist" sound. I honestly do not care for NA voices because frankly a large amount of them that I have heard sound disingenuous/over-exaggerated.

Thanks for reading.

@NIC I do not understand your point. The costumes are older versions which I clearly stated that it is not the newer updated version that has the NGS model (Which sega has been rolling out on JP servers). It is indeed useless to release this now compared to releasing this 2-3 months ago because it would make more sense since we'd still be far from the NGS release.

NGS costumes (older PSO2 ones that are essentially remastered with new ones) again have an updated body which also makes the costume its self look more appealing as smaller details have also been updated aside from the basic hand/foot parts.

My gripe is that this scratch is pretty much useless as PSO2 NGS is literally less than a month away (if we base it off of the server starts campaign which indicates I believe a June 7-9th release). PSO2 NGS costumes have the updated bodies so therefore this "Rewind" scratch is just not needed. It would've made sense to release this scratch like two or three months ago but now at this time it just makes no sense whatsoever unless these costumes come with the updated NGS character model (which I highly doubt).

One of the best male hairstyle is coming tomorrow and I am excited as its the same one I am rocking on my profile pic. I know I have mentioned this quite a lot on the forums and I do not want to think I am the reason for getting it (although I have not seen anyone specifically talk about the Irregular at Magic Highschool x PSO2 collab besides myself) but my alliance who also plays on JP knew I wanted this and spammed me that it was coming.

Thanks for bringing this to NA like I am very pleased with this lol

Occasionally on NA I get some but on JP I got quite a few even though my NA character is pretty similar aside from the hair and missing costume.
