Phantasy Star Online Diary - Day 3

Today Sega Rolled out a fairly big update, supposedly. There was some rebalancing, experience tweaks, and higher encounter rates, among some other things. Unfortunately, my level is probably to low in order to appreciate this update. Also, the update broke my english patch, so I don't really know what's going on when people talk to me, or what I'm supposed to do when I start a quest. For this reason I cannot wait until Phantasy Star Online 2 get's released state-side.


 I've been taking advantage of the game's system to invite npcs to your party, it's just a lot easier than waiting for someone to hopefully show up at this point in the game. Most other players have long since hit level cap. It's not so bad, though, considering the awesome multi party areas, so you still get that social interaction.
 Bbut then THIS happened. Some red mist appeared out of nowhere, I was supposed to run from it but for some reason I was compelled to try to fight it. This proved to be a mistake, I was dead in seconds.
 After restarting the quest, THIS happened. This huge freaking monster appeared and chased me all over the freaking map. Luckily I had run into an event earlier that caused an npc to follow and fight with me.

 It must have taken me like 10 minutes and one death to defeat this thing, but thanks to a user who happened to be there at the time in the multi party area, I managed to dispatch the beast. Boy was that tough, but boy was it fun. Afterwords me and the convenient player chatted about changes between the original Phantasy Star Online and Phantasy Star Online 2.
It was an exciting and productive day in Phantasy Star Online 2.
