    A very good F2P, the game take too more time to launch the ending content but It's fine.
    No abusive Cash shop, very cool class and weapons. You can give to the game an other chance with the last update ^^

    This game is great there might be not enough content yet but SEGA is constantly adding updates and stuff its definitely worth it and the game is free too if you haven't played the game you really should the game. if you get bored of the base new genesis you can always play the original pso2 that is an outstanding game with a huge story and stuff

    I really, really wanted to love New Genesis. It has a solid and fun core, but the game fails to build on it and falls flat in the end. Those problems are compounded by the horrid lag and issues at launch, but what MMO doesn’t have issues at launch? I can’t totally fault them for it, but it seems they were unprepared. This game feels like it needed another 6 to 12 months in the oven before it was ready. In short, Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis is a potentially incredible and enjoyable MMO that is ruined by archaic gameplay systems, poor monetization practices, and a total lack of content. Hopefully, in the future, a lot of these things will be fixed, but at launch, New Genesis is what it is: a game released in 2021 that’s stuck in bad practices from 2012.

    I’m not sure if New Genesis is going to live up to the nine-year-and-still-going-legacy of PSO 2, but it’s a start.
