1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

This was... Unexpected.

I own the entire first quadrilogy, although I only played the first one. I liked it, although gameplay was a bit repetitive, but I loved the early '00 interpretation of the internet and a big MMO offline game. It was unique for its time. Despite not playing it that much, Mac Anu's soundtrack is still very nostalgic to me.

Is this a reboot, a spin-off or a completely new game that only shares the same premise with the original?

I feel like unless .hack is more live service focused, (satirizing Live service like Genshin), it will have run its course.

The biggest issue I have with .hack is the series and the games never went anywhere with the premise.

Great to see it back. There is suppose to be a big spread in [Famitsu] (https://www.famitsu.com/article/202602/66142) with more details.
