First off this game requires money because it is run on powerful t1 servers. IT IS ONLINE POWERFUL AND IT NEEDS MONEY TO RUN, SO STOP NEWBING AROUND AND PAY THE BILL, BECAUSE IF YOU DIDN"T THIS GREAT GAME WOULDN"T EXIST.
Unlike games like starcraft, pso is a persistently changing online experience. You don't create games, there is one game to play on one server which costs alot of money.
Besides that the game is fun for non newbies!

It's sad to see the Dreamcast leaving us. But it's great to know that it's leaving us in style with some of the best games. After Sega announced they would stop producing the Dreamcast, some of the best games have been released. NBA 2K2, NFL 2K2, NHL 2K2, Sonic Adventure 2, and of course Phantasy Star Online version 2.
PSO version 2 is about the Pioneer being destroyed. You use your created character to go around a planet called Ragol to research what happened and it's remains, etc. The gameplay is one area that PSO version 2 really shines. You can choose to either play online or off-line (both excellent modes). If you own PSO version 1 for Dreamcast you will be able to port you character form that game into version 2. Unlike most RPG's this game is a big-time slashing, shooting and killing game and is much more fun than many RPG's. This game also has many new quests that were not in PSO version 1 as well as several new levels such as Cave and Beach to go along with Forest 1 and Forest 2. Sonic Team has also made it easier to get more useful items throughout the game. Meseta (the money in PSO) is much more plentiful and rare items are much easier to find than in PSO version 1. Also you will find more items such as weapons that can be used by your type of character. If you would rather play online it will cost you $15 for 3 months which is not at all a bad deal. Online you can play Battle Mode vs. other players around the world, play Go-Go Soccer in the lobby or join forces with others.
If you own Phantasy Star Online version 1 and have yet to pick up version 2, you don't know what you're missing. With new quests, more rare items, and great, new levels, PSO version 2 is one of the best games on the Dreamcast. The DC definitely goes out in style.

PHANTASY Star Online version 2 is a great game for most ages. It is an action adventure somewhat similar the Zelda battle system. This game includes everything from 3 unique classes to a mini robot called a MAG that hovers over your shoulder and provides protection and help. This is one of the best games EVER made for the dreamcast system, and it is even playable online! great for any ages over 10. Also, this is a highly addictive game and never gets old because there is always something more to do.

Phantasy Star Online Version 2 is one of the last games that you will still see on the shelves. Very few stores still sell this title, because it is the successor of the huge international bestseller "Phantasy Star Online". PSOv2 is about the Pioneer being destroyed, and your customally created character must go on a planet called Ragol to research what happened to it, where are it's remains and so on. A plot taken out of the "RPG Storylines" book. It has a weak storyline, but the gameplay is incredible. This game has a online and offline game. The offline game is you can do this adventure yourself, level up your character, buy items, learn magic tricks. The online mode takes advantage of the Sega Dreamcast's build in 56k modem, or a purchasable Broadband Adapter. The modem allows you to connect to the PSO server and play with people all over the world, including Europe, Japan, South America, Africa, Australia and other places with the Internet. The second version of Phantasy Star Online has more additions to it. There is a highly wanted "Battle" mode, which lets you battle other online players. That is really cool! They also have Go-Go Soccer which lets other PSOv2 players play soccer in the lobbies. Now, the cons to PSOv2 is that I found not too much use to it. If you read the cover, you must pay a steep fee of 15 dollars for 3 months of unlimited online play, due to the new filters to eliminate Gameshark users and people who use illegal items, and the overwhelming amount of users. So you have to convert your PSOv1 file into a PSOv2 file, and there is no turning back. The only way to get free online gaming without the extras is to play with version 1. Now, I purchased a DSL modem, and I got rid of my second phone line, which I used for PSO when there was no one online. The only way my DSL modem to get online is to buy the rare, exclusive, expensive broadband modem... They discontinued it after their announcement of the ending of the Dreamcast. Now you can only buy it on [name of store] for ridiculously high prices. I found no use for it, because I refuse to pay [dollor amount] to the additional [dollar amount] for hte game. You have to pay [dollar amount]to own the game and play online for a year.
Phantasy Star Online is an excellent expierence that must be had by any Sega fan. I recommend also playing "Sega Smash Pack" which includes "Phantasy Star 2" from Sega Genesis. I would recommend Phantasy Star Online Version 1 so you can get the expierence of free online play, at a excellent affordable price. You cannot find it in stores, but you have to look around online for it.
