This is a tale of caution, hope, and restoration. A tale of a passing of the torch. And a tale of two legacies on both sides of the Pacific. This sounds like another game we cover on this channel. Well, almost!

Partial Transcript:
This is a tale of two legacies. This is a tale of a passing of the torch. And this is a tale of the fans taking matters into their own hands! This is Final Fantasy V!
My name’s Zeo, and I’ll be your lore keeper!
Our tale begins in 1990. The Japanese RPG gold rush was still in full force. Heavy hitters like Final Fantasy III and Dragon Quest IV led the charge that year along with Sega’s Phantasy Star III. Meanwhile in the west, Dragon Quest 1 and 2 were ported over under the name Dragon Warrior. This was also the year that western fans would get their hands on the original Final Fantasy published by Nintendo.
With FF3 out the door, Square was hard at work on Final Fantasy 4 for the Famicom alongside Final Fantasy 5 for the Super Famicom to be released in the Summer of 1991 – a “Super” Final Fantasy. But the 7-year-old Famicom was long in the tooth by this point. These plans changed as development for FF4 was shifted to the newer Super Famicom and released in 1991 while FF5 would release the following year.
The People
The core team from the previous games was mostly intact. Hironobu Sakaguchi reprised his role as director one more time before his promotion to executive vice president. This was his favorite in the series until the release of Final Fantasy 9. Sakaguchi wrote the story alongside Yoshinori Kitase. This would be the first time the two men worked together.
The Game Itself
The team had twice as much memory to work with as before, which afforded them much more creative freedom. The environments were more colorful and detailed than before. Cutscenes were more dramatic, and battle effects were more impactful. Even with this newfound freedom, they still had to take the utmost care as they were still pushing the envelope with their available resources.
It’s no secret that Final Fantasy 4 revolutionized the RPG genre. Final Fantasy 5 on the other hand, was perhaps more about “evolution” than “revolution”. It took elements from previous entries and greatly expanded on them.

A rather curious Steam depot was discovered on the PSO2NGS SteamDB page. A rather infamous name has appeared. What could this mean PSO2NGS, and this channel?

Episode 4 would signal a major pivot for the game, both in terms of gameplay and narrative.
The year is AP 241. We’re put on ice after our encounter with the Profound Darkness, but nap time’s over – it’s back to work. To our astonishment, we’ve been asleep for two whole years. We meet the one responsible for rousing us from our 2-year slumber. Her name’s Xiera, and she’s assigned as our personal operator in addition to serving as the ship’s administrator.

Once upon a time, ARKS operatives developed a nimble and graceful fighting style that incorporated flurries of kicks and photon blades. 1000 years later, that style has re-surfaced. Practitioners of these arts were called bouncers!
Today, we're taking a look at a fan-favorite class from base PSO2 - the Bouncer! The bouncer is a fast-moving hybrid melee and casting class that excels in keeping its foes on the ground!
So without any further ado, grab your jet boots, and your soaring blades, and let’s bounce into battle!

Every gaming franchise has a game that is considered the best version of the experience that the franchise seeks to offer. In the 90s, Phantasy Star IV was seen as the pinnacle of that franchise at the time. Many have compared it to other RPG titans of that era! Is Phantasy Star IV truly worthy of such praise?
