There has been an update regarding this. Use google translate if you don't know Japanese. Not so tough now are you?

@Naomao said in So are NGS forums just not happening anymore?:

For the first time ever pso2 have less than 3k players... I don't know what to say.

A funny thing I see brought up sometimes is "XBOX ACTUALLY HAS A BUNCH OF HIDDEN PLAYERS". Yeah, maybe on the super secret server that's invite only. If you add our numbers, it doesn't boost the count by that much.

Making enemies on both servers is a very stupid idea. I'm not sure what they're hoping to accomplish here.

@NIC said in How would you feel about a relaunch?:

A relaunch solves nothing.

Sega has already lost my trust. If they suddenly came out with an update tomorrow that gave the game years worth of content, and made everything right - I still would not play NGS again, ever.

The trust & money I put into Global PSO2 wasn't valued by Sega. My feedback was never valued by Sega. My time was never valued by Sega. Even when I put faith & trust into Sega when they came out and said NGS was going to release in a year, and that PSO2 would be fine - that trust was violated.

If I don't play Sega's games then I can no longer be burned by Sega.

Fixing NGS isn't the problem anymore. NGS was simply a wake up call that I can no longer (and should never have) trust Sega.

They knew NGS was going to be lacking in content, and still kneecapped old PSO2 anyway with hopes that everyone would blindly love the new thing. If they think I'm going to forget that easily, they are so wrong.

Hi, bring back old PSO2. Otherwise I'm not interested in playing or spending money on your shiny dumpster fire.

It's their funeral. I only still log in because I like my characters and sometimes run a daily with them in the old game, but otherwise I don't care about NGS period.

@Archetype-Luna said in Sega added a "Shutdown OfOnline Services" section to the EULA:

@S2-s-Flask-Abuser 5k is not doing well. 5k shows there were no effective increases in player population from pre-NGS.

Yeah, the few new players who trickle in will see it's a ghost town and promptly quit for something else. I still play old PSO2 everyday, but Sega doesn't care about that game anymore.

I would have vastly preferred them putting all FF items in one giant shop to buy whenever. I still play old PSO2, let me indulge on those items as much as I want.

@Pariah-Chan said in Pulling the plug on PSO2?:

Didn’t Microsoft pay for the port or buy pso2 tho?

Yes, MS funded the western release, which is also the reason PSO2 was released on their platforms first. No one seemed willing to step up before that.
