#PSO2 #NGS - Ігри
I have always found it very weird that, as far as we can tell, Starless can traverse the universe freely, yet we're supposed to be a bastion against them while locked to the surface of an island on Halpha... wherever that is? The Starless are even reported to have avoided going right for the center of the universe, tearing up the outer regions first. Why would they funnel themselves into a deathtrap, assaulting only Halpha?
We either have to take the fight into the stars, or find ourselves in some sort of manufactured bottleneck that stops Starless from getting through, I would guess. Likewise, if Solus wants to break the planet, then it either wants what's inside, or it wants to get 'through' Halpha.
Given SEGA's limited resources seemingly going into NGS, a bottleneck explanation seems more likely. A space colony would be great just to have more people with different points of view to interact with. I think SEGA needs work on their existing characters too, but maybe having another actually distinct faction of people would bring out more development on that front.
Yeah, time-space travel! Let's go 500 years back!
Interesting angle
Travel 900+ years back find out the true origin of the Starless. Then set in motion the plan to save as many people as possible when they come in the next 400+ years. Then for drama, witness the death of the original Guardian and suffer a mental crisis as we remember going through it and that our modern friends have to help us get the crisis.
I think that the stiry is setting us up to be able to use Manon's Over Booster ability. At least, I'd be legitimately surprised if we don't.
Kinda like dark blasts from base PSO2. I can see them making that a gameplay mechanic.
@Zeomantic yeah. We know that Zephetto gave her the ability and that there are detrimental effects to overusing it. I personally think that the focus on it in the story so far seems to be pointing to the player obtaining it themselves. At least to me.
if we get a new region in Halpha , it could be the moons since Quilla stated those are always in the same position .
anybody can notice that by looking in the sky on the nights
Yeah I could see us going to the moons especially the big one
would like to see us go inside leciel and its like a cyberpunk/bladerunner city with a giant interior skybox. as far as a halpha reskin goes, ver2 was the perfect opportunity for that and they didnt bother
Honestly hope the new Region is an Urban setting, perhaps an abandoned city. I do not want to get my hopes up. My favorite dungeon in the Base game was the Mothership city, and I somewhat see the potential that could be utilized with the NGS parkour.
(Edited): Exploring the Ruins of an ancient abandoned mothership is interesting and probable from a narrative perspective, there's perhaps an immense amount of technological secrets such as blueprints locked away in one of them, also narrative potential of introducing new systems for players to modify their equipment to make the game even more fun.
That would be interesting.
I don't wanna do time space travel again. I want something new for the series. Not another loop.
