Yoshida and the PSO2 devs discuss a collaboration but its neither yes, no or maybe.

I loved PSO and enjoyed PSU, but I am not fond of PSO2.

What I'd want: Dragon, Dark Falz and De Rol Le FATEs with mag pets or classic PSO weapons as a reward. (The initial quest being given by an Elezen dressed like Jean-Carlo Motague... oh yes :3 )

What would likely happen:

PSO2 thus far disregards the lore of the original PSO and the lore of the franchises they collaborate with so I imagine on their side they'll just throw in an AC gacha with FFXIV themed costumes and mag skins and leave it at that.

For FFXIV, it would probably be similar to the Lightning event with Quna appearing out of the blue to kill darkers and we'd get a tacky default one piece Hunter costume.

If it goes through, it'll be the closest thing to experiencing PSO as I've never played it.
It really looks cute and that emergency quest sounds like fun.

Contemplated making a post about this, as I play PSO2 quite a bit... but if this does happen in the future, I expect PSO2 to get costumes(probably the starting costume for miqote and possibly the warrior set, as they seem to like showing the main character in the trailers using that quite a bit). If they make this a little more elaborate like the Border Break collab, then we might even see a FF boss as part of a city event quest or something, perhaps maybe Garuda or the end boss of the main story since she imitates a lot of the bird darkers from the game, and the end boss is well... I don't need to say more. As for FF? We'll probably see a HUmar and HUnewearl outfit, and at most, we may see a small event with a fate where you fight Falz Hunar(but I sincerely doubt that'll happen).

Would be even better if PSO2 got an NA release.

Not so sure about that one, because except for having Miku singing in the game the rest got old extremely fast for me. orz

So in this case I have to say having vanity costumes and weapons from PSO2 would be the best deal.

PS>
I'd rather SEGA went bonkers and made a Ryu ga Gotoku x XIV collaboration instead. Bonus points if we got to play a FATE quest chain with Kiryu and Majima no niisan. :P

I'd leave this game in a heartbeat.
I played the JP ver. for a bit.
God, it was SO fun! Too bad I can't read JP for crap.
-Sigh;

english fans have created patches to make most of the game in english, there is still some stuff that you have to ctrl+c/ctrl+v into google translate, but for the most part there is patches for all the story, items, an some other basic stuff, there is alot of english speaking players on ship2/block20 if i remember correctly

o ya an my opinion on the OP, i love both games so i think it would be pretty sweet to get some vanity items from pso2

PS1-4 FTW!

PS1-4 FTW!

I loved Phantasy Star IV a LOT...

I also enjoyed Phantasy Star Portable, Portable 2, Universe, 0...

If there was a Collaboration, I would truly hope they work on some cross-game lore...
