  ^ It's not that much of a problem. The best parts of the game are still up for access.

  PSO 2 is no longer in open beta, I'll just change the title and let this be the general topic.
  
  
  And Apartments and the Market place are Cash shop only.

  Good gameplay, fair f2p model, excellent controls, great graphics with low system requirements, and good social interaction as well.
  
  One thing that surprised me early on were the bots you could make of your own character that your friends can summon for missions.

  And he didn't mean bot as in external program. He meant you can turn your player into a AI Controlled NPC that your friend can summon.
  
  Also for people reading Oizen post; you can still buy stuff from the marketplace you just can't sell. But you can win "MyHome" and "MyShop" 3 days pass from the free "FUN Scratch" which will allow you to use those feature for 3 days.
  
  The game is really fun it's like the original PSO formula meet Monster Hunter. Some might find it a bit repetitive but for me it's pretty much a perfect title.
  
  And I'm extremely impressed by the marketplace. I expected gacha costume to be like millions of meseta (ig currency) but the most expensive are like 500k. Most male outfit goes for 1000-50000.

  Awesome.
  
  
  I havent really been playing that much since the offical release of the JP version, I'll probably play this version instead.

  Considering how Sega of America treated PSU I don't hold much hope for the english version of the game.
  
  For people who don't know about PSU. Basically piss poor communication, update were 9+ month behind japan, and they just randomly closed the game (japan PSU is still running). Honestly I would suggest playing the japanese version if possible.

  As much as it pain me to say I do agree that nexon would do a better job at managing the game. I mean sure they'd put ridiculous cash shop probably but at the same time we wouldnt have to fear for the game closing 1-2 years after release.

  Comp. can't handle it maybe so I'll wait for the vita version.
