PSO2 was Sega's number 1 money maker for many years. In their last earnings report, NGS slipped to 2nd place. when they use the term "super game" theyre refering to a live service bread winner for the company like a Fortnite or GTA5. PSO2 is the closest thing they currently have to that.
Sega should stream all their classic and new games through NGS. making that the only way would convince more to at least use NGS at least as a hub zone to play Sega games . think of it like a virtual world Steam of Sega games!! a Sega games multiverse !
So why not just provide an actual list instead of some vague bullet points? Look, i get it. This gane is your life and you dick ride hard for it but come on. Seems like you're going out of your way to prove a point with no actual concrete evidence it falls under the "Super Game" moniker. A lot of assumptions on your part.
This argument makes no sense to me, if anything this makes me think the current dev team is cutting back their resources on NGS to focus on a new "Super Game". If NGS is indeed the Super Game, why do all the song and dance of using a codeword for it when the game has been out for 4+ years? Why say "we invested X millions in the Super Game" instead of "we invested X millions in PSO2 NGS", again to me it just sounds like its an unnanounced game in the same "genre" as NGS made by the same dev team. Considering the state the game has been recently I am far more inclined to believe they are jumping ship to another, new game than keep the current thing running. I am really sad, PSO2 was my favorite MMO and I am crushed at the current state of things.
It's hard for me to consider it a Super Game. The game isn't really AAA at all, and the 600 staff members in that division could just be working on a new game while NGS is their side project. Also, I definitely recall Sega announcing that they were working on developing a Super Game after NGS was already released. My theory is that they are working on a PSO1 remake, which would make sense since it would be considered a legacy title. Believe me when I say that I hope for the best with this game, but it's really hard to come to conclusions with everything that's happened within the last few years.
I mean, PSO2 was the best MMO I ever played. But the NGS update broke me to the point I stopped playing. It was no fun anymore. I loved the idea of having a hub to get missions and whatnot. The open world felt dull and generic, if not almost a copy of genshin which as releasing at the time as well.
I agree.. The switch over from Base PSO2 to PSO2NGS proved to be unsuccessful. What point would there be for the devs to do something along the lines of PSO2NGS2 when the evidence for them has pointed to the fact that that would be a terrible idea. If anyone's seen the VIRTUA FIGHTER trailer, THAT'S THEIR SUPER GAME. The feedback they got from people reacting to the teaser means they will 100% go all in on investing to the game as a live service.
cuz if they use codewords then everyone can assume they are working on their favorite game when in reality they are not, transparency is good, but its also a double edged sword if fans find out they're not putting effort into the things they want them to. that way they are technically not lying, but still not giving fans what they want at the same time
NSG isn't the Super Game. The first Super Game will release in 2026. I am very confident that the Super Game being worked on by the NGS division at SEGA is a brand new Phantasy Star game. I think PSO2 NGS is actually a testing ground for ideas. Seeing what works and what doesn't for the next step.
I have been feeling that you're getting weird when I saw the "[PSO2:NGS] Hate NGS?" video you uploaded few weeks ago. You're projecting and shifting the point people are addressing about lack of contents/grinding didn't seems fun and watered down all that concern to "Just take a break, go touch grasses outside instead of playing PSO2NGS 24/7". I know you have a strong love for PSO2, me too, but you're coping too much. It's time to accept the reality. I have played PSO2JP since old-school version like 10+ years ago, it's been a big part of my childhood but I didn't see the future of PSO2:NGS. It's barely surviving on a life support. I don't know what happened inside SEGA but it's almost like an abandoned project with a content drought issue that has been going on for too long and how they didn't even bother to mention PSO2:NGS in their announcement.
I think you are misunderstanding the article Kero. 1. The article only speaks of these "super games" in the future tense. I.e. they are a "new frontier." The article never speaks of already existing super games that are in continuing development. 2. PSO2NGS doesn't match the qualifications because it is still just an expansion of PSO2(which does not qualify). It is not an entirely different or new game. 3. Sega has already teased some AAA titles for coming development- Sonic and Megaman. 4. If Phantasy Star is included in this development of super games, it is probably a development of PSO3, not NGS. ------ "4a": much of the player base has been asking for this for a long time anyway. For those of us who have been around since PSO1, NGS was a disappointment by almost every metric. 5. The fact that Sega decided to not develop any new story content for NGS for a whole year is clear evidence that this is not a AAA title, and not one of Sega's priorities. 6. It is likely that the cross-platform nature of NGS was simply a guinea pig used for the development of their actual super games. I've felt like NGS was simply an R&D playground ever since it was released. Sorry bud. But I think you are wrong.
@@BigBigTrigger New PSO2 lore confirmed, NGS was the Beta test to the super game for SEGA and the new game is litterally just PSO3: Sword Art Online Edition lol
NSG is definitely not the Super Game. I guarantee they are using PSO2 as a testing ground - what works, what doesn't - for the Super Game. And one of those Super games will be the next PSO.
Well, I would love to believe this, but I have read the document and personally found too much that doesn't align with your take. I don't necessarily think looking at outside sources like their website when talking about info introduced in a investors document is a good idea generally (but I could be wrong). My issue with believing this is on Page 20 (36 bottom left corner) in a section titled "The most important thing is to make good games" where the COO said "Looking further ahead, we are also developing Super Game as a content/service that can be rolled out across a wide range of media, engaging a wide range of users globally. We are concentrating our resources, including human capital, and taking our time to work on this as an important strategy for building the pillars of long-term future growth." MY issue with this is that it's implying "Super Game" is a future development (meaning has not been made yet), so even if you can find evidence of NGS being defined as a super game, it's not in the context of the document that was announcing the 30 billion yen increase, which makes me doubtful even if i would like it to be true (also there are plenty of other mentions in the document, even the one kerropi read in the last video, which directly defines the super game being in development. "As for Super Game, we are developing it based on market conditions, our own strengths, and portfolio perspectives as a challenge to build a long-term growth pillar for SEGA in the future.") (Though I'm not a investor or a legal expert so my understanding is probably below normal with these kind of documents, I just wanted to look to judge for myself whether or not I believe this.) If someone who has more knowledge on these kind of documents can tell me if i messed up somewhere then I would gladly change my tune.
At some point you gotta accept NGS is just a side project to get funds and prepare their infrastructure to develop another project. The super game will be a different title.
Bro you like the game I get it. But it's getting time to move on. I know I can sense it, just like I did with dauntless. In which what you hope for and what you get is completely different and things not getting better with time. Sega just continue wanting our money without much content or a plan.
WOW, after watching this vod my blood pressure went so high up i almost pass out. You want to prove us wrong? So do us. Kimura is in the department=NGS? You're coping too hard. NGS was released in Jun 2021, years later Sega announced their "Super Game" around end of 2023 then they claims NGS is their super game. A gap of 2.5 years? Does it even reasonable? Claiming NGS is an AAA game? Then how many "A's" are those giant games like God of War, Final Fantasy Vll, Wu Kong, Concord? LOL Last vod you said 30b Yen all goes into NGS now you say partially goes into NGS, where's your consistency? Want proof from some articles? Here's one of them- "SEGA planning to release first “Super Game” by the end of March 2026. SEGA has informed its investors that it is still working on what it dubs its “Super Game,” which the company says will stand head and shoulders above what has come before." 1 Nov 2023 from My Nitendo News My hot take is they're likely making a new PS/PSO not NGS.
yeap "NGS" came out in 2011... damn we be playing this game for so long.... they even have 16 star weapons and god unit. damn I can't believe we been playing "NGS" for that long. Wow damn. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
NGS didn't release in 2011, not even base was released in 2011. Base was released in Japan in 2012 and then on global 2020 and after that NGS got released on both regions in 2021
I guess you can say you got a lot of ad revenue or whatever from this video. But that wont make the video less unprofessional nor will it make you any less of an embarrassment since you're the one who created it and you're the one who pressed the Publish button.
Why does something like this even matter? Either NGS gets more funding or they have a new live service game release. Although funding is nice, it does not mean it will be utilized properly. Being a speculating pessimist, it's possible all this funding will be for flashy cosmetics and not making juicer updates and quality of life.
Based on the like to dislike ratio, not many seem to be buying your BS anymore. I get that you needed views but this is pretty weak "proof" so to speak.
Nah, so many months of slop with different food coloring ain't it chief. And then we have the f-ing RNG gearing with augments. If I want to play a game with gacha gearing, I'd play HSR instead or worse, GENSHIN
While it is really good news if NGS gets a share of the budget, it still is bad news if they use it to create game features and have art direction that doesn't really appeal to a lot of players.
lmao doubling down is crazyyyy.... brother they aint gonna focus and waste more money on a damn 2k player base game... like look how they focus more on AC scratches they just millk the few whales that r left...
if they didn't state PSO2NGS is part of their "super game" then it's a no, simple as that and i'm not even surprise that if they are using NGS as a fuel for their "super game". look at how many AC scratch we have active at the moment. battle pass that barely provide any value. recycle content. constant Collab AC scratch that nobody ask for.
if this a super game that what is the base pso2? a super duper mega game? the emergencie quests in ngs don't even come close to base pso2. the best argument you could make is that the phantasy star IP itself is a super game, where they gave them a budget to make a new one, but i doubt it.
Bro, this game is dead. The fact that a company has a product and can't even address it by its actual name in 82 pages should be clear enough. $200 million divided up by multiple games legacy and even NGS (if it is in fact the super game and this doesn't even make clear if there is only one super game or others too) is not a lot of money in gaming development. After they divvy it up between multiple games we take that number and divide by 3 since it's a three year cycle. This dollar amount probably just means NGS will have the doors open another 3 years at the minimum and none of this even explains if it's just an extension of the fumes NGS has already been running on or what the actual increase if any NGS would see. The pure fact that NGS itself is not even addressed in it's own paragraph in 82 pages should make it very clear the future of this basically dead game. If you search Phantasy Star in the document it comes up once just to mention on a timeline historical projects. Hopium is going hard here.
As much as I would love it to be an AAA game it really isn’t in my eyes, it also needs a good story for that and they don’t even seem to be trying to make the story interesting
@@lordbored7006 Agreed. The story is better done than the atrocious mess that was PSO2's story. Though I still think the flow between story and action isn't quite as smooth as in PSU. I do think we should be able to take our PLAYER friends into story segments though. The combat zones show they know how to juggle player+NPC they could easily have a 4 player party + NPCs in story content. And I still find it annoying that my character can look any fucking sort of way in cutscenes but they can't put the proper weaponry in my possession. I PERSONALLY think it should have RELEASED with a full episode of story and updated to the next version when they had another whole episode, with side plots revolving around expanding the open world and the main plot establishing OTHER worlds. The open world tends to feel smaller because it's static where as the previous games built a bunch of maps out of puzzle pieces. They also never should have done ships. They should have been super servers and housed the entire population instead of fragmenting it right out the gate.
It's been over 4 years Kero, just...stop, please, you make good content, but convincing players that NGS is more than what it is, isn't something you're in conditions to do. If anything, the fact that you're an official content creator as a partner for this game will only make it more difficult, I say that as someone who has no issues with you as a creator at all, but several issues with the game and how SEGA has been treating it since the release date. NGS is as much of a "Super Game" as the creative spaces were an "Ultra Evolution" update, players are already disappointed, the last thing they need is to fall for the exact same set of expectations that caused the number of concurrent players to be where it is right now, because a creator they enjoy watching is pushing this heavily speculative narrative YET AGAIN.
tldr; it’s hard to form a conclusion on how SEGA will fund NGS in the future from the information provided because there’s too little evidence connecting NGS and their “super games” or “legacy IPs”. we have to wait and see. it’s hard to see the connection between the descriptions in the article and PSO2NGS, yes you could fit the game under their definitions, but that doesn’t mean they’re talking about NGS especially when they never mention it in the article or in their latest financial reports. the question is why SEGA wouldn’t already establish NGS as a super game by now instead of broadly describing what they going to develop if they already have a super game. also the article was taken from an interview in October 2023, so who knows what remains relevant today. my bet is that they’re gonna allocate a tiny tiny amount of the new funding investing into NGS, because the game didn’t reach much success but they would want to continue to make some amount of money from it. I don’t think they would want to put millions more into a declining game, rather than just making a new game, even in another IP. I would rather have PSO3 than more funding into NGS, but I doubt we’ll see anything PSO3 until the end of the decade.
let's just say... if NGS is considered a "super game" and is in the state it is for all 3 years of its existence, what would sega's non-"super" games be like? By same logic what would base pso2 have been called? ultra super AAAAA++ game (reminder: JP base pso2 was on episode 3, starting episode 4 by this same point in time as ngs currently is at)? I think we all know NGS isn't a "super game" from that alone, unless the word super changed to mean "basically on life support" if you want to cope something, cope that super game is pso3 because that is at least _possible_
Story mode shouldn't have taken this long. Most games start with their story already thought of and finished then add-on if necessary after. I hope they just make PSO3 with the best aspects from PSO2 & ngs
I'm still hoping that Sega assigns the Persona team to doing a REAL RPG for Phantasy Star. None of these Online games have ever had high quality story telling. The best of it was PSU and that was B- to A- based on the episode. I do agree that we should have had the entire first episode right out of the gate. It took them 2 years to get there. They probably should have just let us play PSO2 for a longer period of time before springing NGS on us.
The copium has to stop somewhere, ngs is barely still more than a tech demo, no amount of billions poured into it would do anything at this point, they burned all the goodwill anyone could have for the franchise and turned it into an emote in lobby dress up doll simulator instead. It's barely a game much less super. All it got since stia 'region' update in winter 2022 is copy pasted elements and massaged numbers around, fake level cap increases and higher def on mobs, and ltqs made in 5 minute using untextured blocks now repeated every year with the date of current year in their name (can't even be bothered going back to the untextured blocks editor to make a new one smh). It would need a complete reset ala ff14 realm reborn where they literally blew up the world to start from scratch and a serious rethink of every part of the game, itemization in particular, randomness of rewards, etc.. not gonna list the billion issues the game has still unsolved since day 1 of beta, 3+ years later. The leadership said themselves out loud they don't see any need to play the game to know what its like because they have more important things to do which is one of the many huge red flags you hear too often from AAA studios led by incompetent unpassionate morons. It is known from insider knowledge from even before ngs released that the entire pso2 codebase is cobbled together spaghetti always about to break down completely and we have had countless exemples of totally random bugs introduced one maintenance to the next that attest to it. The initial ngs add-on codebase was made by a different (and most likely quite junior and mismanaged) team than the one who ran and maintained base, and they almost didn't speak at all during entire ngs 'inception', leading to ngs being a complete mess on release, the team that ran base was sent to do another project altogether (sonic frontiers I believe) and could only tell the ngs guys 'good luck chumps'. The ngs guys were already busy trying to put out fires on ngs side and knew nothing about the underlaying base code so they just hoped for the best and didn't touch it at all. Don't believe me ? Take as evidence the fact that we got zero bug fix or events or concerts or ANYTHING on pso2 base side for like 2 years after ngs release. 600 members doesn't mean anything, look at the number of people credited in ngs credits when they rolled after stia dark falz story fight, it was huuuuuge, yet the game is empty af and has zero actual quality control.
IDK Kero......doesn't it sound like Kimura will just be working on a NEW Super Game, which if so, would imply that it is NOT NGS? This article is very forward speaking, doesn't really give me the impression they are talking about a Super Game that already exists. I don't want to jump on the hate train, but I also don't want to get my hopes up when I shouldn't, because I want to get my little brothers into this game, but not if they plan to go as slow as they have been going.
NGS is a super game but the team behind isn´t super at all. Alone the fact that kimura doesn´t play the game is proof for it! If the team would play it for themself they would know that they have to fix LRA, remove spread-shot and add skills for it in the gunner tree. They would fix bugs much faster! They would ajust the loot for ultra hard content! They would stop treading us kids and bombs us with restsign in every content! 600 members in total but only 2 for balancing in NGS.
bro how many time do yall have to make these corny jokes about "doesn't play the game". Kimura say "let's not talk about my experience with the game" and y'all understand "he doesn't play the game. I'm not a dev" but i wouldn't make this type of assumption.
@cyrilleyelibi He has literally said he doesn't play the game with some pathetic excuse of not wanting his experience to impact the direction of the game or something stupid like that. Kerropi is coping hard with this news.
My personal opinion is all of that money isn't going to be just NGS. As Sonic Rumble is going from iOS to steam maybe console which is a live service game. So yes I do believe a portion is going to NGS because collaborations aren't cheap. But, it does sound like multiple things are being worked on.
I understand the perspective being discussed. I previously addressed NGS in another video comment, stating that the graphics of Genshin Impact are not comparable to those of NGS, especially since we were discussing gacha games, including PSO2, which is widely recognized as one. When I made this remark, a commenter responded, asserting that Genshin Impact appears and plays better than NGS. At that moment, I felt a sense of paralysis, akin to the hourglass icon that appears on older computers when they freeze, rendering me unable to articulate a response. I thought, "This individual must be blind," and I proceeded to ask if they believed that Final Fantasy X looked inferior to Genshin Impact graphically. The commenter did not reply after that. My main inquiry is whether anyone genuinely believes that Genshin Impact has superior graphics and gameplay compared to PSO2, as I believe it is an unfair comparison. I maintain that based on graphical fidelity, NGS still surpasses Genshin Impact. I acknowledge that this may not directly relate to the video, but I felt compelled to share this amusing anecdote.
Personally, I see it like this: super games are a *new* initiative from sega, basically to release games at a level similar to other AAA developers. I think you are right that NGS matches what they describe as a super game, which is why division 3 is the best choice to head up the super game initiative. like they said, division 3 is more familiar with cross platform and cross region development. However, i think NGS was probably cooking *before* super games were totally settled as the vision, and that NGS likely proved out many if the concepts behind a super game developed by sega. I would love it if NGS got more love, but my hunch is that it's more like NGS has given them valuable learnings that will inform future games that are in pre-release development now.
Oh nah Sega finally broke my guy.. The past 2 years have shown how little Sega cares about this game and the pso2 franchise... hell Id say the Ultra Floppalution was the best showing and God only knows how much time was wasted on that shet Linestrike game... and don't get me started on a full year of no story content? There are so little ppl playing that I can't even partake in the best part of the game which is fashion because everything cost so fking much because of low supply.
this is seriously the way if they want the game to improve, maybe sega will pul their own yoshi P 😂 I mean ff14 1.0 and ngs is kinda same but ff14 pull their s*** up but ngs refuse to improve.
Although it would make sense that NGS needs more funding for a proper expansion, whether or not that is actually the case remains to be seen. I'll believe it when they show a trailer of an entirely new planet to explore and new bosses, photon arts, etc. Well not even that, but just a public statement that it exists is enough to change my mind. As of now I'm still firmly in the camp of them milking it until they release a new PSO project, either PSO3 or PSO1 remake.
Super game or not the dev team for NGS doesn't play the game at all. To be clear, I don't hate on NGS because I want to, I want it to be a really good game. I feel like they rarely learn from their mistakes and are intentionally making them. If the dev team did play their game they would see the issues and complaints players have with NGS. Sure this game is getting a budget increase but who's to say it won't all go towards scratches and collabs since fashion is the real endgame after all.
they don't play in global... and the complaint are probably a small loud number of player. Maybe another survey will give yall a better idea of how JP see the game.
@@SilentGW64 the last time they did a survey was before JP ask them to put the Creative space in the game. and yeah it can be an opinion that doesn't mean that you i have to agree with you. Especially when it's base on assumption.
@@cyrilleyelibi the last survey they did was the Retem days (2 years ago), the creative space survey doesn't reflect the game performance it self cos all the questions are related to created space only.
what is the issue here we all know how sega handles pso2 development. They chose a slow update cycle for both games this will get you on a fomo treadmill and by the time you have a complete game the next game will be out. Is this news somehow?
WHO LIED TO THIS GUY LOL, ok if NGS is a super game i wanna see all the people on my dead friendslist who stopped playing along time ago all come back by next year, if not this game aint SUPER.
As much as I like NGS, its lack of content and running around in the open world having to wait for storms and the like to farm what I need is just boring and annoying. I wish they would've just remade or just relaunched PSU or something instead of wasting my time.
So technically they are saying a lot of nothing. Making it a big deal for nothing because they branch out everywhere touching here or there and anywhere. To the point the company so dam slow this so call super “game”..? Is mostly a mid game spreading them self thin to the point they covering the word gatch game? And other party’s like sweet baby inc. Ngs just a manipulator content with gamer’s Making content tooo get them more customers. Using greedy and undercut players and employer? This is not an excuse, this is why Monarkey did say escape goating to deal damage control. Why he did talk bout this mystery 3third party.. Plus an other company working with them
Here since day 1 as well, there has also been too much disappointment that there is already no hope unless they just 'do it'. development, development sure they fixed a lot of quality of life that could've been in the first few months but still delayed it for like 3 years(talking about pse). this is just one out of many others. Anyway, I am free from this game. it was a good banger open world in the first few months where there was a lot of players. good memories. for me it was deaded unless they actually released a huge season(New World Map) or something.
I hope they use the money wisely, I'd really love some updates beside collabs, I do miss the old concerts base had like the diversity, the classes felt more unique and rewards felt as rewards, I personally don't enjoy the points events. I like how much I can customize my char but it feels like I only play for fashion
Well best of luck to them. I do curious on how they going to fix the game without doing a rebrand or PSO3. Not dooming it just that PSO2 even NGS is now considered old. And many on going live service game have the same problem which is how to attract new player while the game still going on. D2, FFXIV, WOW, Warframe and so much more still struggle abit here. So let see i guess what they come out with. Even if they gotta rebrand or do PSO3 i dont mind if the game / series become good.
There’s only about 1.2k players in-game and 24 hours peak. I don’t think they’d wanna use their funds on this game. Even if they did, players won’t be coming back.
12:18 and there's the problem with NGS. Phantasy Star has always catered too much to the Japanese audience for a long time, and that's how it succeeded. By changing it to try to appeal to everyone globally, it pleases no one.
I feel like it’s their attempt of getting away from the advertising/marketing of gacha games and instead they’re just giving it a different name. Super game vs Gacha game. I don’t disagree NGS falls under that category.
(In italian) buongiorno Sig.Kero ,è il mio primo commento .La mia alleanza si sta chiedendo come mai NGS sembra in stato di abbandono ,a parte serie di armi e fashion non propone contenuti degni di interessare i giocatori tipo sottotrame o altre zone di gioco.Lo sanno gli sviluppatori che stanno facilitando l'abbandono di molti giocatori?Io gioco da quando è uscito ed è un peccato vedere che nonostante ngs abbia grandi potenzialità, non viene sviluppato adeguatamente ( anche nella trama e nel mondo di gioco )continuando a rifilarci le stesse missioni evento riciclate e ripetitive.Come molti altri stiamo aspettando il limit cap al lv100 per poi dropparlo .Mi dispiace tanto che debba finire così. Un grande augurio di buona fortuna a te e famiglia.
There's plenty of content. It's just that it doesn't really MATTER how many bosses or areas it has. We'll mop the floor with any new content in hours flat. PSO only had 4 areas and 4 bosses. People worship that game like it's a Masterpiece around here. We got way more content than that, but while they were content on grinding it out 1000000 times for years till the next 4 areas came out in a paid for expansion, that model doesn't work anymore because there is more choice. My suggestion, go make that choice.
Ah yes the situation of the studio only having one real revenue source is also funding a super game behind the scenes, where have I heard of this before? (Stares at Bungie)
The amount of negativity here sucks. I've been a fan of PS/PSO for a long time. I know the game isn't perfect but i still enjoy it. We'll just have to see what happens. I'm always hoping SOMETHING interesting gets added that blows us away. I do find it odd that PSO2 wasn't mentioned at all here though.
I follow you but this game has so much wasted potential. I love how combat feels but I hate the gane its in. It still feels like a broken hollow shell of its predecessor. Still prefer pso2 on my gamecube to this.
I'd like to believe you're right but I'm sticking with my gut at remaining skeptical. They'd have to do another re-launch/re-brand like rebirth to garner enough attention to justify their sunken costs and they already tried that with NGS version 2 and they fell flat on their face with that. I think they're just trying again fresh with a new IP or a PSO3 behind closed doors.
It’s a super game. But is it a great super game? It’s mixed. It’s really addictive but the content is terrible. If it wasn’t just a grind fest it would be better.
Really? Wow, that's crazy because I watch, and trust you most of the time unlike some others no offense because I watch you the most so I have no worries especially since you did come back and recorrected things for us about the Vael Boss event coming etc. I'm just glad that you cleared up things since accidents happen :P
Until they specifically state otherwise… it really seems like a whole new game is in the works. NGS has been getting barebones in terms of what Sega wants to do with it and has only gotten worse over the years . Personally, I feel that the Super Games title is reserved for their successful classic games that are getting reboots, PSO2 could’ve barely fit into that category, but it wasnt mentioned and even through the mess that needs to be interpreted… they still didnt mention PSO2 and they did seem like it was alluding to potentially a whole new PSO/Remake; which I would give all my cosmetics up to just play that if it comes down to it, because… and I know this hard for you to believe, but we are tired of the GACHA, limited content loops with less meaningful rewards. It is totally copium, but I get it… it’s your content baby and you like many others spend thousands of dollars on the game, so you dont want it to “die”. That’s why we should be standing against or rather boycott games that are like this, because it is predatory on a financial level and it should be illegal imo.
Man, so many mixed opinions coming out near the end of the year. Oh well, time will tell if there's improvement or not. Till then, I'll continue to play with my wife and bros, cuz we're still enjoying it at a chill pace. I hope everyone else finds their own peace after calming down.
Sonic… he’s got an attitude, Sonic… he can really mooooove, Sonic… He’s the fastest thing alive, he’s the fastest thing alive… HE’S THE FASTEST THING ALIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE 🤘😆
😂😂 LMAO and yet NGS isn't even mentioned anywhere , this article focuses on upcoming Super Games in development and executive's background. I sincerely thought you'd have some solid proof but instead it's just 20 minutes of you reaching. Would you be willing to make a video about NGS failing to achieve all of their sales goals since launch as their own financial reports show? This has become a misinformation channel, truly heartbreaking. 😢
financial goal fail????? where are you getting that information? last time i check NGS was part of their "free 2 play" report and that part of the report show that they are doing well and exceeded expectation. So where did you get your info that it was not? i'm curious
@@cyrilleyelibi I can't link directly because my comment keeps getting deleted. You got to google this : ngs sales figures with graphs reddit It should be one of the top results.
I get it, y’all trying to say PSO:NGS isn’t doing so well financially speaking but to say it isn’t being included within the 30 mil budget is just being delusional. Even if the game isn’t doing so great and not getting a full 30 mil budget increase solely for it; I believe sega will still give the NGS team enough of a budget to keep the ball rolling for a while longer. We all know it will inevitably have a successor. People need to just chill out and quit being such negative nancies! All Kero is saying is that NGS is part of the projects that includes 30 mil yen is all.
This game is not a super game a tell I see more classes added im not playing like this game need content or just a fun classes like how you have a bunch of classes and none of them feel fun
I'm going to leave this here 💩. The game will not be amazing even if they do get the budget increase. Everyone knows the budget is to increase the amount of scratches because end game is fashion. Watch next year roadmap -it went from each month having content to Jan/Feb , March/April and now the Road map for 2025 is going to be Jan/Feb/March 😂
So super games are pretty much any games with global games so it's a big nothing. Pso2 isn't going to get majority of the funding looking at Segas revenue drop.
you pump more videos than the actual content of the game.
PSO2 was Sega's number 1 money maker for many years. In their last earnings report, NGS slipped to 2nd place. when they use the term "super game" theyre refering to a live service bread winner for the company like a Fortnite or GTA5. PSO2 is the closest thing they currently have to that.
If NGS is a "Super Game", it is the most neglected one of all time.
Sega should stream all their classic and new games through NGS. making that the only way would convince more to at least use NGS at least as a hub zone to play Sega games . think of it like a virtual world Steam of Sega games!! a Sega games multiverse !
It's got a lot of potential, sadly SEGA treats this game like a ship sailing with a skeleton crew and resources.
Yeah Sega is ignoring their big revenue games...
Class action lawsuit when?
Absolute Keroppium
Lmao
So why not just provide an actual list instead of some vague bullet points? Look, i get it. This gane is your life and you dick ride hard for it but come on. Seems like you're going out of your way to prove a point with no actual concrete evidence it falls under the "Super Game" moniker. A lot of assumptions on your part.
No way we are doubling down on this
This argument makes no sense to me, if anything this makes me think the current dev team is cutting back their resources on NGS to focus on a new "Super Game".
If NGS is indeed the Super Game, why do all the song and dance of using a codeword for it when the game has been out for 4+ years? Why say "we invested X millions in the Super Game" instead of "we invested X millions in PSO2 NGS", again to me it just sounds like its an unnanounced game in the same "genre" as NGS made by the same dev team.
Considering the state the game has been recently I am far more inclined to believe they are jumping ship to another, new game than keep the current thing running.
I am really sad, PSO2 was my favorite MMO and I am crushed at the current state of things.
It's hard for me to consider it a Super Game. The game isn't really AAA at all, and the 600 staff members in that division could just be working on a new game while NGS is their side project. Also, I definitely recall Sega announcing that they were working on developing a Super Game after NGS was already released. My theory is that they are working on a PSO1 remake, which would make sense since it would be considered a legacy title.
Believe me when I say that I hope for the best with this game, but it's really hard to come to conclusions with everything that's happened within the last few years.
I mean, PSO2 was the best MMO I ever played. But the NGS update broke me to the point I stopped playing. It was no fun anymore. I loved the idea of having a hub to get missions and whatnot. The open world felt dull and generic, if not almost a copy of genshin which as releasing at the time as well.
I agree.. The switch over from Base PSO2 to PSO2NGS proved to be unsuccessful. What point would there be for the devs to do something along the lines of PSO2NGS2 when the evidence for them has pointed to the fact that that would be a terrible idea.
If anyone's seen the VIRTUA FIGHTER trailer, THAT'S THEIR SUPER GAME. The feedback they got from people reacting to the teaser means they will 100% go all in on investing to the game as a live service.
cuz if they use codewords then everyone can assume they are working on their favorite game when in reality they are not, transparency is good, but its also a double edged sword if fans find out they're not putting effort into the things they want them to. that way they are technically not lying, but still not giving fans what they want at the same time
NSG isn't the Super Game. The first Super Game will release in 2026.
I am very confident that the Super Game being worked on by the NGS division at SEGA is a brand new Phantasy Star game.
I think PSO2 NGS is actually a testing ground for ideas. Seeing what works and what doesn't for the next step.
I have been feeling that you're getting weird when I saw the "[PSO2:NGS] Hate NGS?" video you uploaded few weeks ago.
You're projecting and shifting the point people are addressing about lack of contents/grinding didn't seems fun and watered down all that concern to "Just take a break, go touch grasses outside instead of playing PSO2NGS 24/7".
I know you have a strong love for PSO2, me too, but you're coping too much. It's time to accept the reality.
I have played PSO2JP since old-school version like 10+ years ago, it's been a big part of my childhood but I didn't see the future of PSO2:NGS.
It's barely surviving on a life support.
I don't know what happened inside SEGA but it's almost like an abandoned project with a content drought issue that has been going on for too long and how they didn't even bother to mention PSO2:NGS in their announcement.
I think you are misunderstanding the article Kero.
1. The article only speaks of these "super games" in the future tense. I.e. they are a "new frontier." The article never speaks of already existing super games that are in continuing development.
2. PSO2NGS doesn't match the qualifications because it is still just an expansion of PSO2(which does not qualify). It is not an entirely different or new game.
3. Sega has already teased some AAA titles for coming development- Sonic and Megaman.
4. If Phantasy Star is included in this development of super games, it is probably a development of PSO3, not NGS.
------ "4a": much of the player base has been asking for this for a long time anyway. For those of us who have been around since PSO1, NGS was a disappointment by almost every metric.
5. The fact that Sega decided to not develop any new story content for NGS for a whole year is clear evidence that this is not a AAA title, and not one of Sega's priorities.
6. It is likely that the cross-platform nature of NGS was simply a guinea pig used for the development of their actual super games. I've felt like NGS was simply an R&D playground ever since it was released.
Sorry bud. But I think you are wrong.
Ngs kinda feels like we the players are their free "testers" of the game lol
@@BigBigTrigger New PSO2 lore confirmed, NGS was the Beta test to the super game for SEGA and the new game is litterally just PSO3: Sword Art Online Edition lol
NSG is definitely not the Super Game. I guarantee they are using PSO2 as a testing ground - what works, what doesn't - for the Super Game. And one of those Super games will be the next PSO.
@@bilboborbins 😂😂
Super game? More like Super cope. NGS does not deserve to be called a Super Game.
Well, I would love to believe this, but I have read the document and personally found too much that doesn't align with your take. I don't necessarily think looking at outside sources like their website when talking about info introduced in a investors document is a good idea generally (but I could be wrong).
My issue with believing this is on Page 20 (36 bottom left corner) in a section titled "The most important thing is to make good games" where the COO said
"Looking further ahead, we are also developing Super Game as a content/service that can be rolled out across a wide range of media, engaging a wide range of users globally. We are concentrating our resources, including human capital, and taking our time to work on this as an important strategy for building the pillars of long-term future growth."
MY issue with this is that it's implying "Super Game" is a future development (meaning has not been made yet), so even if you can find evidence of NGS being defined as a super game, it's not in the context of the document that was announcing the 30 billion yen increase, which makes me doubtful even if i would like it to be true (also there are plenty of other mentions in the document, even the one kerropi read in the last video, which directly defines the super game being in development.
"As for Super Game, we are developing it based on market conditions, our own strengths, and portfolio perspectives as a challenge to build a long-term growth pillar for SEGA in the future.")
(Though I'm not a investor or a legal expert so my understanding is probably below normal with these kind of documents, I just wanted to look to judge for myself whether or not I believe this.)
If someone who has more knowledge on these kind of documents can tell me if i messed up somewhere then I would gladly change my tune.
I came looking for answers and left wanting to apply for a job at SEGA
LOL. Same. I'll head on over there and help them make NGS an absolute banger.
I thought you were crazy, now I'm sure, so much misinformation in just one video lol
At some point you gotta accept NGS is just a side project to get funds and prepare their infrastructure to develop another project.
The super game will be a different title.
Bro you like the game I get it. But it's getting time to move on. I know I can sense it, just like I did with dauntless. In which what you hope for and what you get is completely different and things not getting better with time. Sega just continue wanting our money without much content or a plan.
the only way for this game to ever become "super" is for it to die. so sega can realize they need to make a better game
Unfortunately we do the same dam content each month
nuuh sometimes the content is colored differently! hur hur hur
WOW, after watching this vod my blood pressure went so high up i almost pass out.
You want to prove us wrong? So do us.
Kimura is in the department=NGS? You're coping too hard.
NGS was released in Jun 2021, years later Sega announced their "Super Game" around end of 2023 then they claims NGS is their super game. A gap of 2.5 years? Does it even reasonable?
Claiming NGS is an AAA game? Then how many "A's" are those giant games like God of War, Final Fantasy Vll, Wu Kong, Concord? LOL
Last vod you said 30b Yen all goes into NGS now you say partially goes into NGS, where's your consistency?
Want proof from some articles? Here's one of them-
"SEGA planning to release first “Super Game” by the end of March 2026. SEGA has informed its investors that it is still working on what it dubs its “Super Game,” which the company says will stand head and shoulders above what has come before."
1 Nov 2023 from My Nitendo News
My hot take is they're likely making a new PS/PSO not NGS.
Yup!. PSO2: NEW EXODUS
yeap "NGS" came out in 2011... damn we be playing this game for so long.... they even have 16 star weapons and god unit. damn I can't believe we been playing "NGS" for that long. Wow damn. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
NGS didn't release in 2011, not even base was released in 2011. Base was released in Japan in 2012 and then on global 2020 and after that NGS got released on both regions in 2021

Things got so bad that they're now deleting comments 🤡
Remember Sega can't even mostly get Sonic games made and done right and he's their main mascot.
Why does something like this even matter? Either NGS gets more funding or they have a new live service game release.
Although funding is nice, it does not mean it will be utilized properly. Being a speculating pessimist, it's possible all this funding will be for flashy cosmetics and not making juicer updates and quality of life.
Honestly NGS community is trash
HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS!!!!!

Based on the like to dislike ratio, not many seem to be buying your BS anymore. I get that you needed views but this is pretty weak "proof" so to speak.
Nah, so many months of slop with different food coloring ain't it chief.
And then we have the f-ing RNG gearing with augments. If I want to play a game with gacha gearing, I'd play HSR instead or worse, GENSHIN
While it is really good news if NGS gets a share of the budget, it still is bad news if they use it to create game features and have art direction that doesn't really appeal to a lot of players.
lmao doubling down is crazyyyy.... brother they aint gonna focus and waste more money on a damn 2k player base game... like look how they focus more on AC scratches they just millk the few whales that r left...
That 4th point for the supergame is not a high bar tbf
if they didn't state PSO2NGS is part of their "super game" then it's a no, simple as that and i'm not even surprise that if they are using NGS as a fuel for their "super game".
look at how many AC scratch we have active at the moment.
battle pass that barely provide any value.
recycle content.
constant Collab AC scratch that nobody ask for.
Lmfao content engagement go up.
Blink if you're being paid to do this. We would understand, but this isnt it my man!
if this a super game that what is the base pso2? a super duper mega game? the emergencie quests in ngs don't even come close to base pso2.
the best argument you could make is that the phantasy star IP itself is a super game, where they gave them a budget to make a new one, but i doubt it.
Bro, this game is dead. The fact that a company has a product and can't even address it by its actual name in 82 pages should be clear enough. $200 million divided up by multiple games legacy and even NGS (if it is in fact the super game and this doesn't even make clear if there is only one super game or others too) is not a lot of money in gaming development. After they divvy it up between multiple games we take that number and divide by 3 since it's a three year cycle. This dollar amount probably just means NGS will have the doors open another 3 years at the minimum and none of this even explains if it's just an extension of the fumes NGS has already been running on or what the actual increase if any NGS would see. The pure fact that NGS itself is not even addressed in it's own paragraph in 82 pages should make it very clear the future of this basically dead game. If you search Phantasy Star in the document it comes up once just to mention on a timeline historical projects. Hopium is going hard here.
As much as I would love it to be an AAA game it really isn’t in my eyes, it also needs a good story for that and they don’t even seem to be trying to make the story interesting
the direction the story currently has is honestly decent. It just needs more, a lot more
@@lordbored7006 Agreed. The story is better done than the atrocious mess that was PSO2's story. Though I still think the flow between story and action isn't quite as smooth as in PSU. I do think we should be able to take our PLAYER friends into story segments though. The combat zones show they know how to juggle player+NPC they could easily have a 4 player party + NPCs in story content. And I still find it annoying that my character can look any fucking sort of way in cutscenes but they can't put the proper weaponry in my possession. I PERSONALLY think it should have RELEASED with a full episode of story and updated to the next version when they had another whole episode, with side plots revolving around expanding the open world and the main plot establishing OTHER worlds. The open world tends to feel smaller because it's static where as the previous games built a bunch of maps out of puzzle pieces. They also never should have done ships. They should have been super servers and housed the entire population instead of fragmenting it right out the gate.
It's been over 4 years Kero, just...stop, please, you make good content, but convincing players that NGS is more than what it is, isn't something you're in conditions to do. If anything, the fact that you're an official content creator as a partner for this game will only make it more difficult, I say that as someone who has no issues with you as a creator at all, but several issues with the game and how SEGA has been treating it since the release date. NGS is as much of a "Super Game" as the creative spaces were an "Ultra Evolution" update, players are already disappointed, the last thing they need is to fall for the exact same set of expectations that caused the number of concurrent players to be where it is right now, because a creator they enjoy watching is pushing this heavily speculative narrative YET AGAIN.
Ever since NGS came to light and then Sega killed off the original game, PSO2 fell off so badly...
tldr; it’s hard to form a conclusion on how SEGA will fund NGS in the future from the information provided because there’s too little evidence connecting NGS and their “super games” or “legacy IPs”. we have to wait and see.
it’s hard to see the connection between the descriptions in the article and PSO2NGS, yes you could fit the game under their definitions, but that doesn’t mean they’re talking about NGS especially when they never mention it in the article or in their latest financial reports. the question is why SEGA wouldn’t already establish NGS as a super game by now instead of broadly describing what they going to develop if they already have a super game.
also the article was taken from an interview in October 2023, so who knows what remains relevant today.
my bet is that they’re gonna allocate a tiny tiny amount of the new funding investing into NGS, because the game didn’t reach much success but they would want to continue to make some amount of money from it. I don’t think they would want to put millions more into a declining game, rather than just making a new game, even in another IP.
I would rather have PSO3 than more funding into NGS, but I doubt we’ll see anything PSO3 until the end of the decade.
let's just say... if NGS is considered a "super game" and is in the state it is for all 3 years of its existence, what would sega's non-"super" games be like? By same logic what would base pso2 have been called? ultra super AAAAA++ game (reminder: JP base pso2 was on episode 3, starting episode 4 by this same point in time as ngs currently is at)? I think we all know NGS isn't a "super game" from that alone, unless the word super changed to mean "basically on life support"
if you want to cope something, cope that super game is pso3 because that is at least _possible_
Story mode shouldn't have taken this long. Most games start with their story already thought of and finished then add-on if necessary after. I hope they just make PSO3 with the best aspects from PSO2 & ngs
I'm still hoping that Sega assigns the Persona team to doing a REAL RPG for Phantasy Star. None of these Online games have ever had high quality story telling. The best of it was PSU and that was B- to A- based on the episode.
I do agree that we should have had the entire first episode right out of the gate. It took them 2 years to get there. They probably should have just let us play PSO2 for a longer period of time before springing NGS on us.
The copium has to stop somewhere, ngs is barely still more than a tech demo, no amount of billions poured into it would do anything at this point, they burned all the goodwill anyone could have for the franchise and turned it into an emote in lobby dress up doll simulator instead. It's barely a game much less super.
All it got since stia 'region' update in winter 2022 is copy pasted elements and massaged numbers around, fake level cap increases and higher def on mobs, and ltqs made in 5 minute using untextured blocks now repeated every year with the date of current year in their name (can't even be bothered going back to the untextured blocks editor to make a new one smh).
It would need a complete reset ala ff14 realm reborn where they literally blew up the world to start from scratch and a serious rethink of every part of the game, itemization in particular, randomness of rewards, etc.. not gonna list the billion issues the game has still unsolved since day 1 of beta, 3+ years later.
The leadership said themselves out loud they don't see any need to play the game to know what its like because they have more important things to do which is one of the many huge red flags you hear too often from AAA studios led by incompetent unpassionate morons.
It is known from insider knowledge from even before ngs released that the entire pso2 codebase is cobbled together spaghetti always about to break down completely and we have had countless exemples of totally random bugs introduced one maintenance to the next that attest to it.
The initial ngs add-on codebase was made by a different (and most likely quite junior and mismanaged) team than the one who ran and maintained base, and they almost didn't speak at all during entire ngs 'inception', leading to ngs being a complete mess on release, the team that ran base was sent to do another project altogether (sonic frontiers I believe) and could only tell the ngs guys 'good luck chumps'.
The ngs guys were already busy trying to put out fires on ngs side and knew nothing about the underlaying base code so they just hoped for the best and didn't touch it at all. Don't believe me ? Take as evidence the fact that we got zero bug fix or events or concerts or ANYTHING on pso2 base side for like 2 years after ngs release.
600 members doesn't mean anything, look at the number of people credited in ngs credits when they rolled after stia dark falz story fight, it was huuuuuge, yet the game is empty af and has zero actual quality control.
IDK Kero......doesn't it sound like Kimura will just be working on a NEW Super Game, which if so, would imply that it is NOT NGS? This article is very forward speaking, doesn't really give me the impression they are talking about a Super Game that already exists.
I don't want to jump on the hate train, but I also don't want to get my hopes up when I shouldn't, because I want to get my little brothers into this game, but not if they plan to go as slow as they have been going.
NGS is a super game but the team behind isn´t super at all. Alone the fact that kimura doesn´t play the game is proof for it! If the team would play it for themself they would know that they have to fix LRA, remove spread-shot and add skills for it in the gunner tree.
They would fix bugs much faster!
They would ajust the loot for ultra hard content!
They would stop treading us kids and bombs us with restsign in every content!
600 members in total but only 2 for balancing in NGS.
bro how many time do yall have to make these corny jokes about "doesn't play the game". Kimura say "let's not talk about my experience with the game" and y'all understand "he doesn't play the game. I'm not a dev" but i wouldn't make this type of assumption.
@cyrilleyelibi He has literally said he doesn't play the game with some pathetic excuse of not wanting his experience to impact the direction of the game or something stupid like that. Kerropi is coping hard with this news.

Sure, Janice.
Damn Keroppi is coming out guns blazing. lol he's big mad 😂
My personal opinion is all of that money isn't going to be just NGS. As Sonic Rumble is going from iOS to steam maybe console which is a live service game. So yes I do believe a portion is going to NGS because collaborations aren't cheap. But, it does sound like multiple things are being worked on.
Oh no this is the dark path of being a drama bait cc why would you double down just take the L
because he's not wrong and PSO2 players cant seem to grasp the idea of what business management is
600 staff member and they can't make ngs good.
They aren't working on NSG. PSO2 NGS is the testing ground for their actual Super game. Probably PSO3.
if anybody got confused about the triple A game
just look up the quadrople A released by Ubisoft "skull and bones" :D
I understand the perspective being discussed. I previously addressed NGS in another video comment, stating that the graphics of Genshin Impact are not comparable to those of NGS, especially since we were discussing gacha games, including PSO2, which is widely recognized as one. When I made this remark, a commenter responded, asserting that Genshin Impact appears and plays better than NGS. At that moment, I felt a sense of paralysis, akin to the hourglass icon that appears on older computers when they freeze, rendering me unable to articulate a response. I thought, "This individual must be blind," and I proceeded to ask if they believed that Final Fantasy X looked inferior to Genshin Impact graphically. The commenter did not reply after that. My main inquiry is whether anyone genuinely believes that Genshin Impact has superior graphics and gameplay compared to PSO2, as I believe it is an unfair comparison. I maintain that based on graphical fidelity, NGS still surpasses Genshin Impact. I acknowledge that this may not directly relate to the video, but I felt compelled to share this amusing anecdote.
sega: so what do you bring to the table?
me: i AM da table.
287 like vs 363( 👎🏻)dislike 🤭👀
The level of delusion is enormous... banana pancake alliance are toxic... like the BIS alliance ship 1 thing
Would love NGS to improve but simultaneously how could they match PSO2 base? It's not as fun as base but I would love to see it get to that point.
Personally, I see it like this: super games are a *new* initiative from sega, basically to release games at a level similar to other AAA developers. I think you are right that NGS matches what they describe as a super game, which is why division 3 is the best choice to head up the super game initiative. like they said, division 3 is more familiar with cross platform and cross region development. However, i think NGS was probably cooking *before* super games were totally settled as the vision, and that NGS likely proved out many if the concepts behind a super game developed by sega. I would love it if NGS got more love, but my hunch is that it's more like NGS has given them valuable learnings that will inform future games that are in pre-release development now.
Oh nah Sega finally broke my guy.. The past 2 years have shown how little Sega cares about this game and the pso2 franchise... hell Id say the Ultra Floppalution was the best showing and God only knows how much time was wasted on that shet Linestrike game... and don't get me started on a full year of no story content? There are so little ppl playing that I can't even partake in the best part of the game which is fashion because everything cost so fking much because of low supply.
Stop defending pso2 let it die or force Sega to change their leadership for ngs it took them 3 years to tie the game with 1 string back to pso2.
this is seriously the way if they want the game to improve, maybe sega will pul their own yoshi P 😂 I mean ff14 1.0 and ngs is kinda same but ff14 pull their s*** up but ngs refuse to improve.
Never shoulda been tied to PSO2 in the first place. It's superficial.
They don't want to lose their dress-up dolls
Although it would make sense that NGS needs more funding for a proper expansion, whether or not that is actually the case remains to be seen. I'll believe it when they show a trailer of an entirely new planet to explore and new bosses, photon arts, etc. Well not even that, but just a public statement that it exists is enough to change my mind. As of now I'm still firmly in the camp of them milking it until they release a new PSO project, either PSO3 or PSO1 remake.
Super game or not the dev team for NGS doesn't play the game at all. To be clear, I don't hate on NGS because I want to, I want it to be a really good game. I feel like they rarely learn from their mistakes and are intentionally making them. If the dev team did play their game they would see the issues and complaints players have with NGS. Sure this game is getting a budget increase but who's to say it won't all go towards scratches and collabs since fashion is the real endgame after all.
they don't play in global... and the complaint are probably a small loud number of player. Maybe another survey will give yall a better idea of how JP see the game.
When is the last time they did a survey? 🤔 Also this is my opinion.
@@SilentGW64 the last time they did a survey was before JP ask them to put the Creative space in the game. and yeah it can be an opinion that doesn't mean that you i have to agree with you. Especially when it's base on assumption.

Lol I already know what's going to happen, so obvious. Good luck on your journey
what is the issue here we all know how sega handles pso2 development. They chose a slow update cycle for both games this will get you on a fomo treadmill and by the time you have a complete game the next game will be out. Is this news somehow?
WHO LIED TO THIS GUY LOL, ok if NGS is a super game i wanna see all the people on my dead friendslist who stopped playing along time ago all come back by next year, if not this game aint SUPER.
Dead Game. RIP. Could've been good.
Yeah, I'm -stealing- using this as my steam review
As much as I like NGS, its lack of content and running around in the open world having to wait for storms and the like to farm what I need is just boring and annoying. I wish they would've just remade or just relaunched PSU or something instead of wasting my time.
They don't even promote this game at any festival or any game show anymore, they just keep it online to milking the cosplay whales.
Holy copium!
So technically they are saying a lot of nothing.
Making it a big deal for nothing because they branch out everywhere touching here or there and anywhere.

Here since day 1 as well, there has also been too much disappointment that there is already no hope unless they just 'do it'. development, development sure they fixed a lot of quality of life that could've been in the first few months but still delayed it for like 3 years(talking about pse). this is just one out of many others. Anyway, I am free from this game. it was a good banger open world in the first few months where there was a lot of players. good memories. for me it was deaded unless they actually released a huge season(New World Map) or something.
I hope they use the money wisely, I'd really love some updates beside collabs, I do miss the old concerts base had like the diversity, the classes felt more unique and rewards felt as rewards, I personally don't enjoy the points events. I like how much I can customize my char but it feels like I only play for fashion
Bruh....... 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Well best of luck to them. I do curious on how they going to fix the game without doing a rebrand or PSO3. Not dooming it just that PSO2 even NGS is now considered old. And many on going live service game have the same problem which is how to attract new player while the game still going on. D2, FFXIV, WOW, Warframe and so much more still struggle abit here. So let see i guess what they come out with. Even if they gotta rebrand or do PSO3 i dont mind if the game / series become good.
Gotta appreciate the hustle to try and keep the channel alive. Nice bait. Atleast i hope it was bait. Otherwise you are coping so hard its insane.
Been here since day 1 and holy sh-, the world is still so f-ing dead.
Beautiful to the eyes but man does it feel so empty.
Haha 1ST probably. Regardless, I just wish the best for NGS anyways.
Unsubbed and disliked
There’s only about 1.2k players in-game and 24 hours peak. I don’t think they’d wanna use their funds on this game. Even if they did, players won’t be coming back.
12:18 and there's the problem with NGS. Phantasy Star has always catered too much to the Japanese audience for a long time, and that's how it succeeded. By changing it to try to appeal to everyone globally, it pleases no one.
I feel like it’s their attempt of getting away from the advertising/marketing of gacha games and instead they’re just giving it a different name. Super game vs Gacha game. I don’t disagree NGS falls under that category.
It's not a God-Tier game Shangra-la lol but it's alright just don't bother grinding because they keep giving crap that out does what you make ...
(In italian) buongiorno Sig.Kero ,è il mio primo commento .La mia alleanza si sta chiedendo come mai NGS sembra in stato di abbandono ,a parte serie di armi e fashion non propone contenuti degni di interessare i giocatori tipo sottotrame o altre zone di gioco.Lo sanno gli sviluppatori che stanno facilitando l'abbandono di molti giocatori?Io gioco da quando è uscito ed è un peccato vedere che nonostante ngs abbia grandi potenzialità, non viene sviluppato adeguatamente ( anche nella trama e nel mondo di gioco )continuando a rifilarci le stesse missioni evento riciclate e ripetitive.Come molti altri stiamo aspettando il limit cap al lv100 per poi dropparlo .Mi dispiace tanto che debba finire così. Un grande augurio di buona fortuna a te e famiglia.
no content no super game, all their content is AC and colabs greed for money and no respect for players
There's plenty of content. It's just that it doesn't really MATTER how many bosses or areas it has. We'll mop the floor with any new content in hours flat. PSO only had 4 areas and 4 bosses. People worship that game like it's a Masterpiece around here. We got way more content than that, but while they were content on grinding it out 1000000 times for years till the next 4 areas came out in a paid for expansion, that model doesn't work anymore because there is more choice. My suggestion, go make that choice.
Ah yes the situation of the studio only having one real revenue source is also funding a super game behind the scenes, where have I heard of this before? (Stares at Bungie)
The amount of negativity here sucks. I've been a fan of PS/PSO for a long time. I know the game isn't perfect but i still enjoy it. We'll just have to see what happens. I'm always hoping SOMETHING interesting gets added that blows us away.
I do find it odd that PSO2 wasn't mentioned at all here though.
I follow you but this game has so much wasted potential. I love how combat feels but I hate the gane its in. It still feels like a broken hollow shell of its predecessor. Still prefer pso2 on my gamecube to this.
I'd like to believe you're right but I'm sticking with my gut at remaining skeptical. They'd have to do another re-launch/re-brand like rebirth to garner enough attention to justify their sunken costs and they already tried that with NGS version 2 and they fell flat on their face with that. I think they're just trying again fresh with a new IP or a PSO3 behind closed doors.
It’s a super game. But is it a great super game? It’s mixed. It’s really addictive but the content is terrible. If it wasn’t just a grind fest it would be better.
Really? Wow, that's crazy because I watch, and trust you most of the time unlike some others no offense because I watch you the most so I have no worries especially since you did come back and recorrected things for us about the Vael Boss event coming etc.
I'm just glad that you cleared up things since accidents happen :P
For me it all hinges on whether or not they announce version 3 in the next road map in the next headline, then well see for sure what's what
Only time will tell - who was right and who was wrong...
You HAD 3 YEARS
Super Game = Quadruple A
Ngs definitely a super game for those Scalpers 😂
Until they specifically state otherwise… it really seems like a whole new game is in the works. NGS has been getting barebones in terms of what Sega wants to do with it and has only gotten worse over the years . Personally, I feel that the Super Games title is reserved for their successful classic games that are getting reboots, PSO2 could’ve barely fit into that category, but it wasnt mentioned and even through the mess that needs to be interpreted… they still didnt mention PSO2 and they did seem like it was alluding to potentially a whole new PSO/Remake; which I would give all my cosmetics up to just play that if it comes down to it, because… and I know this hard for you to believe, but we are tired of the GACHA, limited content loops with less meaningful rewards. It is totally copium, but I get it… it’s your content baby and you like many others spend thousands of dollars on the game, so you dont want it to “die”. That’s why we should be standing against or rather boycott games that are like this, because it is predatory on a financial level and it should be illegal imo.
Man, so many mixed opinions coming out near the end of the year. Oh well, time will tell if there's improvement or not. Till then, I'll continue to play with my wife and bros, cuz we're still enjoying it at a chill pace. I hope everyone else finds their own peace after calming down.
Sonic… he’s got an attitude, Sonic… he can really mooooove, Sonic… He’s the fastest thing alive, he’s the fastest thing alive… HE’S THE FASTEST THING ALIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE 🤘😆
HELL YEAH
😂😂 LMAO and yet NGS isn't even mentioned anywhere , this article focuses on upcoming Super Games in development and executive's background.
I sincerely thought you'd have some solid proof but instead it's just 20 minutes of you reaching. Would you be willing to make a video about NGS failing to achieve all of their sales goals since launch as their own financial reports show? This has become a misinformation channel, truly heartbreaking. 😢
financial goal fail????? where are you getting that information? last time i check NGS was part of their "free 2 play" report and that part of the report show that they are doing well and exceeded expectation. So where did you get your info that it was not? i'm curious
@@cyrilleyelibi I can't link directly because my comment keeps getting deleted.
You got to google this : ngs sales figures with graphs reddit
It should be one of the top results.
Just another hater. Quit being so delusional dude
@@OmegaXXII 😂It's literally SEGA showing everyone that the game isn't doing good but of course it's the h8urs' fault.
🤡🤡🤡
I get it, y’all trying to say PSO:NGS isn’t doing so well financially speaking but to say it isn’t being included within the 30 mil budget is just being delusional. Even if the game isn’t doing so great and not getting a full 30 mil budget increase solely for it; I believe sega will still give the NGS team enough of a budget to keep the ball rolling for a while longer.
We all know it will inevitably have a successor. People need to just chill out and quit being such negative nancies! All Kero is saying is that NGS is part of the projects that includes 30 mil yen is all.
waiting for 3rd video talking about this again
This game is a huge grift
Copium city
This game is not a super game a tell I see more classes added im not playing like this game need content or just a fun classes like how you have a bunch of classes and none of them feel fun
I'm going to leave this here 💩. The game will not be amazing even if they do get the budget increase. Everyone knows the budget is to increase the amount of scratches because end game is fashion.
Watch next year roadmap -it went from each month having content to Jan/Feb , March/April and now the Road map for 2025 is going to be Jan/Feb/March 😂
Just quit. You’re dismissed.
Agreed lol we know the roadmap is gonna be trash
So super games are pretty much any games with global games so it's a big nothing. Pso2 isn't going to get majority of the funding looking at Segas revenue drop.
