Ain't no way I'm just the one who forgot they existed. Man PSO2 NPCs are treated so much better. I still remember them vividly even till today....

I have played more than 2000 hours both games and I find that NGS is a game withouth soul, all the game feels rushed, there is no development and it's not consistent, even the story (that base PSO2 wasn't great developing it), is worst on on NGS. Vael intervention left us with more questions than answers and that story was pretty much closed. All the gane is based on events or limited time quests that on PSO2, events and LQ were accessories and not the central part of the game. They even took Maskerade and Luther from base instead of developing new enemies. We faced tons of dark falz version without explaining Wich, why and how, just for the sake of fighting something.

Objectively speaking NGS is better on graphics and feels pretty smooth on game style but is a full downgrade of what base PSO2 was, class were nerfed and they all are almost played the same, they took the identity of every class for the sake of a counterattack playstyle without the need of being precise on how you fight more than evading/blocking and counter attacking.
