people don't like changing their match up settings, that's the experience i've made. generally. if you go into this type of content with your npcs/bots, thinking they're in any way helping you, you're wrong. if you go into this type of content thinking you will get good XP/Hour, you're also wrong.

the bewitched forest, or enchanted forest/woods, is simply a means to farm rares.nothing else.

so if you go into this and bring your NPCs because you don't want to be alone, make sure to set the active recruitment setting so that real, actual useful players, can replace your NPCs at some point.

if that is still not good enough, and you hate playing with others, there is always the option to set a password and restrict others from joining you, MPAs included.

there seriously is no excuse to not follow those little rules in content types where everyone knows that Enemies have HP pools directed towards MPAs and also hit like trucks.

reason i don't want to see another gacha system like AC scratches in NGS. if your wallet can influence the ingame market, it's never a good thing. i'm not surprised some people get addicted by this and might look for ways to pass the systems intended features and get something the easy way. it's just downright bad and extremely expensive.

this whole system is indirectly influencing the ingame market, even if you're not interested in the fashion, and that's the bad thing about it being sellable.

the price is a bit too steep, but i'm more welcoming of straight up buying cosmetics.i will never spend cash on gacha mechanics, but i think the idea they had with the ragol pack in the beginning was still the best. spend cash, get tokens, trade tokens for cosmetics you want from the pack, boom.everybody is happy.

I see some people running around with it, and i randomly bought the Kranos Outer piece in Red to collect SG with it. But i don't see them in the AC scratch and i'm wondering what's going on.

Edit: I see that the Male version actually does appear on the AC Scratch ticket, what about female though? i saw someone with the outer helios piece in red yesterday.

Episode 5 ist da, und wir sind dabei.wenn Ihr noch Anschluss sucht, bei uns ist jederzeit Platz

as if anyone at MS would actually care about someone having 2 accounts. their ToS doesn't specifically say anything against multiple accounts, mainly that it's not allowed to use multiple instances of access at the same time.

even then, i hardly doubt that they will care enough.

but for your own interest https://pso2.com/terms-and-conditions

kleiner push für alle die bereit für episode 5 sind und noch auf der suche nach einer allianz.

well, the game never had much attention because it came 8 years late and their promotion team didn't exactly work hard on getting it out there in the first place. besides that one trailer we got in 2019, there really wasn't much material to hype on aswell. no amount of social media attention will change that at this point.

that is why, they, and i mean SEGA in general, will work hard on getting NGS out there way before the release on a global scale.

we're past all that hype on pso2, so might aswell make the best out of it while it lasts, not try to grasp on straws here.

i get that.

but in my opinion, holding ingame events to actually make people play the game more is alot healthier for a game. if i'm retweeting their stuff, noone will see this. and those with more friends, will most likely have already told their close friends about the game.

their facebook is dead, this is not gonna change by this.their twitter is being used as the only reliable source for news.

i just don't get it. this shit makes me mad.

this feels like people telling me to log into facebook and play a game to befried them so they can have more farm point. i don't want to fucking do that.

fucking twitter and facebook.

looking at the new road to Episode 5 Event https://pso2.com/news/announcements/r2e5twitterfbgiveaway i'm actually disappointed you guys didn't take the chance to turn this into an actual ingame event like we used to have with Maximum Attack quests in the past.

I get it, everyone is crazy for their social media, but god, this is a social media account for a game, so instead of forcing people to trash their feed with your messages, have them actually play the game and achieve something together ingame.

This game is literally tracking your progress, it couldn't have been too hard to actually hold an event where Slayed Monster numbers in certain quests could've unlocked those item.

Boring. BOOOOOOOOOOORING.
