This comparison holds true between PSO2 and NGS. What you're whining about is entirely unrealistic. And, if you are so a lot of PSO2 purist which you will just refuse to PSO2 Meseta perform NGS, fine, don't. You're still getting a full graphical overhaul of the main game, which alone is enough to get excited about. You're acting like this may supercede PSO2 in every way and the current PSO2...

It should be mentioned that characters are shared between them too - you'll be able to use them in both PSO2 and NG. How are characters shared, exactly? If"character development won't carry over", that sounds just like you can have a character with the same name in both matches, but I wouldn't predict that shared. That is what they said. I'm presuming you get to Phantasy Star Online 2 Meseta...
