I just started playing this and figured I'd post it here for anyone interested, I remember this game from back in the day but never got a chance to play it much, there's also a lot of active players on this server.
PSO is a multiplayer online RPG game with fast-paced action combat. Movement and attacks are all done in real time. You can play with a keyboard or a gamepad.
You can meet up with other players in the lobby, chat, form a party, prepare on Pioneer 2 and head down to Ragol, the planet the game takes place on, to adventure to your heart’s content.
Demolish your foes, discover rare items, solve many side quests and mysteries all while trying to find out what happened to the people of Pioneer 1, a colony sent to colonize the planet of Ragol who suddenly vanished after a massive explosion rocked the entire planet.
Phantasy Star Online first debuted on the SEGA Dreamcast at the end of 1999. It’s gone through several iterations, across many platforms, with Blue Burst, on the PC, being the final one.
This game holds a special place in many player’s hearts and when SEGA decided to no longer host a server for it, the PSO community took matters into their own hands.
I always tried it but felt pretty lonlely... Maybe I give it another shot :D
Yeah I tried it out o a different private server several years ago, but there wasn't many other players, so far this once seems pretty populated
The symbol chats are the best part of playing in multiplayer
