  • Phantasy Star Online - The Pioneer Project Explained
    The Pioneer Project is the crux of the story in Phantasy Star Online and the expanded PSO universe (which includes Episodes I - IV and Phantasy Star Zero). The two colony ships we know from PSO have a story, and this video will explain what you need to know to understand the background of PSO's Pioneer Project.

    Man, the entire feeling of phantasy star is so different. The sounds, music, story and aesthetic is just beautiful

      Yeah, I'm surprised no one has really replicated it -- there actually is an indie project titled "The Pioneer Project" which I found out about while researching for this video. I would like to cover it on the channel at some point, just haven't gotten around to it.

      @@Voidmoney Dark Falz was the cause of most warring also prior to ragol a meteor had struck ragol this meteor contained D cells (dark falz genes) this allowed them to make mags (animal brains inflicted with the cells but purified the photon blasts being direct D cell creatures) it also allowed for better casts, and for their creation fully. even after the events of pso the D cells left on coral where used in the creation of mother trinity but due to the flawed tech they probably failed to fully purify the cells creating another avenue for dark falz on coral

    Hey, Void! Awesome job with this video, and the narration and editing are on-point! The transitions are quick and snappy, the footage is varied and corresponds nicely with the voiceover, and the explanation is accessible, even to folks like myself who know next-to-nothing about the PSO universe. I really like how you use a relaxed, conversational tone, yet it's clear that you're really passionate about the lore associated with MMO games like this one, Asheron's Call, and Baldur's Gate. It's a really cool domain of the gaming world, and I'm happy to see that there are a good number of folks who have been looking for this kind of content!
    By the way, this got recommended to me today, and it looks like it's been getting a strong response in general - that's awesome, man! I hope your summer's been going well - and keep up the superb work with this series! :D

    Phantasy Star continues to be one of my favorite things in the world, though I stopped after 2, as I hated New Genesis because it felt too floaty by comparison. I have both a Dreamcast and Gamecube copy of PSO, as well as Universe on both PS2 and PC DVD-ROM. I'm currently trying to hunt down a physical copy of the XBox PSO, and physical copies of the original runs of Phantasy Star 2 and 4 outside of the Sega Smash Pack. One of my next cosplays is actually gonna be a RAcaseal suit, and I will be working on it once I'm done making Bridget from Guilty Gear! It makes me happy to hear that other people are still showing interest in the series decades after it came out. I hope it continues to bring you joy just as it does me! These days I typically play on Ultima PSO and Clementine PSU, though I'm not on very often anymore because of how busy my life is lately. I hope to come back, though!
