| Thema: und | Antwort auf: Sega schaltet Server ab von Rinoa | |
| Hello, GUARDIANS --- I want to follow up this official message with a personal message to everyone here. I realize for this comes as a blow. It saddens me, as well – I’m sentimental, and I’ve always considered my PC/PS2 characters my “home” for the game. I’ve been a dedicated PC gamer for well over 20 years, and I’ve loved playing PSU on the PC; to me, it’s always been the platform that felt the most natural for the game – it’s also where I first learned and explored the game. While the population of PC/PS2 has never been as large as on the Xbox 360 version, I always appreciated the intimacy & tight-knit nature of the groups that played there. I have fond memories of my first GM Support Sessions, on Paracabana Coast, sitting in the sand with a few dozen players & chatting pleasantly about everything to do with the game. You are a witty, savvy, and dedicated bunch of players – I say that with the utmost gratitude for how pleasant you’ve made my job here at SEGA. If you’ve played on PC/PS2 recently, you also likely know why we are shutting these servers down. The population is simply too low for us to be able to continue to support this platform. I will answer any questions you have about this closure to the best of my ability, but please understand I cannot speak to business/financial decisions or details. While sad, this is also a huge opportunity for the Xbox 360 version of the game. Players here are well aware that the Western version of the game has fallen behind the content schedule for the Japanese version of the game, but in focusing our resources on just a single version now, we do have the chance to actually close that gap. There’s content on the Japanese version that we all really want to see, and have been vocal about wanting to see – content that I’m extremely excited about as well – which we will be bringing here. I will, naturally, be able to provide more details as they become public & available. With the unreleased content still coming here, PSU still has a lot of room to grow & change, and that’s exciting for me, as a GM and as a player. Seeing PC/PS2 close is going to be difficult for all of us who have invested our time & energy into our characters there. Seeing new life for this game through Xbox 360, however, is a big positive, in my opinion. I want to keep this thread open for all discussion of the PC/PS2 shutdown, PSU, or anything else relevant – of course it’s okay if you’re upset & want to post that, but I ask that you keep your posts constructive and within the rules of the forum. I want us to be able to discuss this here for as long as we need to. Post your thoughts, post your questions, post your fond memories of PC/PS2 – and keep in mind, PC/PS2 still has MAG+ left, and I truly look forward to seeing you all there! |
