Why You Absolutely HAVE To Play PSO In 2024! Phantasy Star Online!
In today's video we take another trip down memory lane and play one of my all time favorite games! I have lost count the amount of hour I have sunk into this game over the years but it's always a blast to revisit it and share my thoughts on it!

Huge shoutout to the team working on the project and keeping my childhood alive!
I’ve never felt loneliness and abandonment from a game before, and I feel it so deep in PSO. And it’s not just playing it offline on console with all these communication features meant for no one, it’s so tangible in the sound, the themes of the game, and the atmosphere it creates. Humanity is on this lonely ship in the void, hoping to find home, and finds tragedy instead.
That is such a brilliant explanation for how I feel about the game too. Once you experience this game it’s very hard to get away from!
Been playing it since a child in Dreamcast now I’m 27 years and still playing BB Última Server
Technically all the games are still online
Great trip down memory lane. I met my wife in PSO! Weve been married 17 years!
Thats beautiful
@@feliciavale4279 Thank you! It's an interesting story most folks can't believe. 😅 But we are going strong! Thanks PSO!
The spike of adrenaline I'd get when I saw a red box >>>>>>>>>
Unmatchable
I’m so happy for everybody showing their love for PSO, it had a big part in my life as well. My love for the series was for the original series though, it was my absolute favourite series of all time ever
Level 21 before even leaving the Forest? Holy crap, lol. I just started a GameCube character this week and I hit level 9 getting OUT of the Caves.
Bro the game is about the community online
Phantasy Star Online and Diablo 2 were EVERYTHING to me growing up.
Along with Arcanum, the Baldur's Gate games, the Icewind Dale Games, Digimon World, ect
Neat Digimon World lover!
Pso and pso2 have a close place in my heart I was ecstatic that they brought it to ps4 I loved and still do love pso so much
There’s been a lot of new content on pso ephinea these days and I’m loving it. It even got me to download it and relive my childhood
Completely agree, it’s so good to see people playing it!
@@deployablelover yea for sure! I’ve played DC,GC, and BB and every single time failed to reach max level due to a memory card issue or server crash. This time I really hope I can get it done.
Maaan I almost want to come back. I stopped playing a few years ago but PSO was my childhood. Played pretty much for 10+ years straight on every version released. I think I was playing Blue Burst in college when it got shut down.
This game has all the secret sauce they didn't save any for contemporary game developers
I didn't realise you did PSO videos as well! Great to see more people coming back to PSO or checking it out for the first time. I've played it on and off for 20 years and still don't see myself stopping! Hopefully see you on Ephinea sometime! Great video 👍
Hey dude! What an honour! Yes I’ve been playing a lot recently with no sign of slowing down! Not quite to the standard of yours but we start somewhere for sure!
If you have a discord perhaps you can drop me a link and I can join to keep up to date with your uploads etc? Couldn’t see it anywhere ☺️
PSO was my life when it first came out. Played it together with my friends, got my own phone line so I could play online whenever I wanted. Even paid for the official ASCII Keyboard Controller for the Gamecube just so I could play and chat with others. My data is long gone but I still have my original discs, Gamecube, and the keyboard controller.
Oh man! nostalgia overload, I adored this game as a kid it's one of those rarities that you thank your lucky stars you came across so long ago, I use to play it alone for days and grinding my levels like crazy then I invited my friends and played with them too, I just loved this game so dearly. I later on played it almost every day with my younger brother years ago when he was in middle school we had it on the gamecube and we weren't able to save our level progress, so what we'd instead do is leave it on overnight and progress through each stage each day after school, such good time. I also played blue burst but none of my friends nowadays are interested in it, so I stopped playing for a while but I am totally going to get back into it again
WE NEED THIS BACK! NO MICROTRANSACTIONS AND NO BS BATTLEPASS
its literally readily available right now
PSOBB Remake this year if you can trust the rumors. It’s a fanmade project but this has awoken hopes!
you mean the one by glader? Yea that one has looked promising. He's been working on it slowly for a long time so Im not expecting it this year or anything, but he's still doing the lords work.
I for the life of me can't figure out why Sega hasn't tried to do a mobile port of this game. It would destroy.
Has it now progressed beyond the character design menu? Is there hope that it will appear?
@@scape211 I respect his work a lot and what he does but lets be honest he is no where near or ever going to make a full blown remake. what he has is very rudimentary although cool for what it is
A-flipping-men to the music. PSO’s soundtrack is unlike anything else. It instantly transports you to place that sounds truly alien and wonderous
Also, totally tangential, but I could never get tired of someone talking about the sound of PSO. It’s like giving voice to things I’ve been thinking for years
HELL YES DUDE! So glad someone is as much of a soundtrack lover as I am! Thank you so much for checking out the video and sharing this awesome comment! ❤️
As a kid I was sometimes booting the game up just to listen to the main menu and opening theme on repeat
@@Koonski I can’t tell you how often I did this! Oh my word!
and every single sound effect is so special as well. As well as the icons for like shifta and all those other techniques.
Loved this video! Always nice to see more people enjoying the best PSO game ever made (in my opinion). Nice work!
Thank you Cole! Appreciate you stopping by the check it out! I stream it here twice a week usually so keep an eye out on the scheduled streams if you want to check it out ☺️
Played PSO 2 & NGS and I wasn't really feeling it for multiple reasons but PSO Episode 1,2 & 4 have a special place in our heart but PSO is not MMORPG, it's MORPG.
6:17-6:22 Spoken like an edgy mercenary who care about guns, getting paid to kill moving things, booze, and pr0stitutes.
This game holds a special place in my heart
Oh I will play PSO as soon as I figure out how to do it with on my wii!!, everything worked just fine a couple of years ago, idk what changed
Yo bro thanks for raising awareness for this amazing game. You a real one. We need pso ep 1,2,3 and 4 to be ported to the Nintendo switch big time. Peace to you!
Honestly I do miss this really bad now, I think blueburst server went down when I played, and pso2 took about 10 years to release so i wasn’t excited for it anymore….I never did unseal that j-sword
I'd take it back compatible on xbox series X without online just to play it and to see how it looks on series x. Original xbox games look great on the series X and its a shame theres not more.
I still play it now and then on the original xbox.
2:03 - My God! Man you bring tears to my eyes I buy my Sega DC on 9-9-99, i was finishing my 20's for that day now I'm old I'm in my mid 50's.
Hey, bud. If you play PSO2:NGS, you've got a friend on Ship 4!
Hey dude! I’ve just started on ship 2 😩 is there no way people can visit each other?
@@deployablelover LOL, you can apply for a "Ship Transfer". Never tried it myself, but you will have to wait until the next weekly scheduled maintenance for the process to complete.
Ship 4 the best one🫡
Yasminkov's (think im spelling/naming that right) had the best ranged weapon sound i was totally captivated by this game. Then we learned to dupe weapons and totally destroyed it 😅 i miss this game so much.
My absolute favorite game, this and Shenmue ❤
Roger that. Played Shenmue 1-3 last year after, probably, 20 years away from it. I will try getting PSO up and running I played entirely too much of that when I was younger.
wow, this still look so good.
I have also been playing PSO again recently albeit PSO EP I & II Plus for Gamecube! Fun stuff!
I played PSO on gamecube when i was 13 years old. My favourite part was the social aspect of making friends in the lobbies n playing the game’s content together. I even miss trolls who spammed crazy sht in the chat 24/7 😂 I got addicted to the game. We need MMOs to have a social aspect like this again
One of my favorite childhood and teenage games of ALL TIME 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I haven't played since 2014 back when my cousin was borrowing his friends GameCube
Heh, one of the songs from the game I have as my ringtone. I let it play a bit before picking up the phone lol.
Played psp Version and loved it. Poorly There is no ps4 or ps5 Version . Loved the weapons and the game play. I hope we get a psp Classic remake with trophys on ps4 PS5
I tried PSOBB, but ds4 didn't work 9/10 times and there were only lv200 guys.
Felt a bit boring alone :'(
But so absolutely beautiful !
One of my favourite game in my childhood
Man, this game, on OG Gamecube with that awkward ass controller. Many many good memories. I might have to get a modern controller and an emulator and play through this again. Thanks for this, great game, even by modern "standards".
EDIT: I even had the broadband adapter for my Gamecube with a Hunter's License as they called it. This game rocked so hard. With the bugs and glitches, hacks, such a great time playing.
EDIT EDIT: I had real-life friends I played with that had suffered the grind first, we skipped quests and just went straight in killing stuff, the "quests" weren't worth the effort. Holy shit I'm living it again. Memory card swaps, unable to play single player if you forgot to swap back.... The times this game gave all of us...
Yup started back up on Ultima server. I thought id never return to my roots of gaming.
I use a usb gamecube style controller. it just feels so natural...
Is this enjoyable offline as a single player game? Can it be completed?
You can definitely take it to a far enough extent of completing side story and many quests but as for hunting end game weapons, unit etc that you will need some buddies for. At the very least you will need them for their section ID
@@deployablelover That's too bad. So it's not beatable offline? Or it more difficult because I won't have access to the best weapons offline?
@Freshbrood If you want something doable single player & offline. Look into Dolphin & the Return to Ragol romhack. You'll "miss out" on Episode 4 though which is honestly PSO's weakest content anyway so not that big of a deal.
3:33 😂😂😂 same bro
Pahaha! Snap!
Very nice video
Thank you for checking it out 👍🏻
Please make more pso content.
Haha i make some pso content as well
You should come play Pso Ultima
EPHINEA~! Come HOME~!!
Loved this game...
Modern games cant get near the music of these old games. Back then studios had their own composers that really knew what it was to make music for a game. Nowadays they just outsource to people like inon zur and while its great music, these people dont know how to make music for games. They dont know the feeling of hitting start and seeing a big title splash like the likes of koji kondo and uematsu or marty.
i playing in destiny and ultima server i love its game
I miss my nodded mag on the GC 😢
You look like callums corner in the thumbnail
Bro 😂😂😂😂
I always return to blue burst
yo i want to get the game i miss playing it
Come play pso ultima ❤❤❤
Will always love pso but pso 2 ngs is the future of the game
That game has no future
@@shatteredsentient5321 😢 🪦
And it honestly suck... even though i am at level cap there
@DeployableLover PSO is okay, PSU was GREAT, PSO2 is awesome, PSO2 NGS is trash
Oh a private server well never mind then that's done.
I'm confused, were you expecting the official servers to still be up for a game from 2000? The fan servers have allowed people to continue to experience PSO long after the official servers closed down, and can offer either a vanilla experience (like Ephinea) or a custom experience (like Destiny)
My thoughts much the same!
@@NTpspE That's unfortunate but okay.
Trump is great
At being an unlikable douchebag? I agree!
Keep the politics out of this PSO appreciation video, thanks
RFK ALL THE WAY
PSO doesn't stand for Political Shite Online
@@aBadWizardTrump won. Cry about it
this game is good till you beat it and left to grind the same quests over and over again for more xp and drops
