This has been this games gameplay loop since "release".
Nothing else is rewarding or worth doing besides maybe PSE bursting for 10+ hours to farm meseta for cosmetics /seasonal points for cosmetics(if a season is active).

What about if you like RPG progression and player base? Well...

Why should I get gear or waste meseta on it when you hand out free new gear every other week, and there's nothing challenging to use better gear on?

Where is the difficult and rewarding instanced content and bosses?

What is this game supposed to be? It's clearly not what is being advertised.

ngs is doggy they ruined pso2 after ngs should've just made a whole new game and kept pso2 like it was before

Yeah we need longer term goal to achieve. Daily and weekly should and always the side stuff to do. Going for the main objective will cover it somehow. Gigantix hunting was a thing before. Now we just jump into purple triggers. I have a multi weapon Kaizer but no place to use it. Ancient grinding was great. Seeing people dying every second was exciting. But after getting three kaizer, people stop showing up. It's not that the game isn't fun. There's just no personal progression.

Yeah, PSO2 was up for a long while so there is a more or less overaching story to it. This new NGS seems very bare bones. In fact it seems to have recycled a huge amount of PSO2 graphics and enemy behaviour and has more or less nuts all about a story other than "kill all the enemies". Hell, even character creation was copied over from PSO2, I was expecting a new game and new character but surprise, surprise, my old character came over too, so they obviously recycled the database as well.

NGS should have had more content before it started, at least 1 episode, not chunks of chapters. And I remember the old joke "New PSO2? Great! Now our characters can finally bend their fingers!". Well.... guess what, the characters are still palm handing their swords lol.

It's like NGS was done all on the spur of the moment rather than planned, it really has not much going for it at all.

And NGS shouldnt do it better because ?

I mean Sega plan for NGS is so bland lets try and predict Stia shall we ?

Content:
Get on Max Lv. Increase your Heat Enviromental resistance. Wait for new Ancients to be released like 2 weeks later. Hunt down Ancients for new endgame weapon. Wait 5 months for new zone and do filler content Sega calls "events".

Lets be honest here is Sega wouldnt do a bunch of Event stuff in between most of us wouldnt even log in anymore. Hell i dont even log in for the daylies only for the weeklys and i finish them right away and be done for the week.

Base JP PSO2 was like this. We were level 30 for a like a year. And we only got three class, Hunter, Ranger, Force. Global really got spoiled. Having 10 years of content smash into just one year. No way Sega is able to push out that kind of update realistically. NGS problem is getting to max potential isn't hard or long. Fighting against RNG for loot isn't fun either. Being able to do these 'island content' with subpar equipment just means there's no need for Best In Slot gear at all.

Do you still ride a horse and trolley to work?
Of course not. Things improve and get better with time and money. NGS has much more funding that 10 year old PSO2 did.
Rugged drop rates from 60 MPA zones was good. They made them not worth farming for after 3 weeks though....and gave the units out for free. Absurd.

I still dont understand this argument.
I am pretty sure people played enough games over the last decade to know when a game release is good and when not. I mean New World is the best example of that. Or Bless Online ?

What makes you people believe the people playing NGS are spoiled from the base game ? Even new people that never played base say NGS is short lived.

Then play the game instead of doing one thing and complaining there's nothing else to do just because you don't want to do it?
Nothing else is rewarding. I named the only content worth doing(dailies/weeklies/PSE bursts).
I've done it enough, it's repetitive. This game should have an end game to use the gear we get handed for free on.

There are zero long term goals and zero rewarding challenges.

Sega themselves said in an interview PSE bursts are the only consistently rewarding content and it's an issue. The problem is they've been saying this since release.

No they aren't, PSE bursts in El Nossa with Premium +meseta from food are the best meseta/hour on JP. Every capsule from cannonball is worth 1k.

Wtf is an El Nossa?
How much meseta/hour would that be? I made 700k with cannonball running the classes for the Arks Record.
"Every caps-" nah, you're lying and a fast shop search exposes your lie.

None of the capsules exclusive from Cannonball are worth more than 1k on my JP server. Which ones am I missing?

Dress-up simulator :3
Yep. Pretty much this. Dressup + decent combat, but no loop.

It's like eating undercook high grade meat without any sauce/salt/spice.

It has nice ingredients, but they way they cook it just frustrating.
