A DOLLS that once flew across the grasslands of Aelio.
Plays a lot of PSO2 after finding out Resurgent ARKS stopped running the Mining Rig Defense Urgent Quest. Also plays other games when they feel like it.

  • They’ve added more to do but the main gameplay loop still involves running around defeating enemies and getting loot.

    • Since January 2023 they released the 4th region Stia, as as well as story that goes beyond that. The areas that they’ve added since the 3rd region Kvaris have their own gimmicks to use. They’ve not released any new regions since then as they said they want to focus on other parts of the game.

    • There’s a new Creative Space feature that allows you to build some very impressive stuff.

    • The class level cap is now 75 and they’ve added a load of class skills for each class as well as handed out buffs.

    • Since launch they added the Braver (Katana & Bow), Bouncer (Jet Boots and Soaring/Dual Blades), Waker (summons familiars with their Harmonizer) and Slayer (Gunblade) classes.

    • Leciel is a quest they added that changes its layout, obtainable buffs and end boss each day. Running it gives you near-endgame augment capsules for your gear.

    • ARKS Rankings are now run weekly and task you with running existing content to get the highest score or best time and place onto a leaderboard. What this content is varies each week, but it can involve defeating a boss quickly, or completing a Trainia dungeon as fast as you can, or racing on hoverboards. The higher you get on the leaderboard the more ranking badges you get which you can spend on cosmetics, some gear and other prizes.

    • Alliances can now compete in weekly rankings by collecting points from completing Alliance Tasks (which also give Alliance Badges). The best Alliances are rewarded with Meseta (the in-game currency).

    • It’s not really a feature, but downloading the “PSO2” side of the game is now optional if you play the Steam version. It chops 58GB off the total install size if you don’t download it.

    There’s a load of other features and quests they’ve added over time that I can’t remember off the top of my head. if you haven’t played for a long time, I would recommend giving it another try, though pacing yourself is advised.









  • Yes for some people it is the subscription cost, or not wanting to support Blizzard, or wanting to re-experience an old version of the game as accurately as possible.

    There are also those people that like hopping between realms whenever new ones are launched to get the “fresh” experience and don’t mind losing an old character when they’ve done all they’ve wanted to with it.

    I do hope that more of these projects allowed you to export your character data to perhaps use on your own self-run private server. None of the ones I’ve seen allow you to do that.
