Phantasy Star Portable 2: Meet Bask and Character Editing Changes and Pricing

Most of Phantasy Star Portable 2's characters have been introduced already, but, wait a minute a new character?

Meet Bask

Bask

Meet Bask!

According to Sakai, the character you'll meet first is HIM, not Emilia…  He's a skilled mercenary hired by Little Wing. He's voiced by Joji Nakata. You'll see him and other NPCs walking around Clad 6. Sakai also wants you to talk to the NPCs on Clad 6. They will provide you with useful information, and tutorials.

Character Editing Changes

One of the biggest complaints in regards to Phantasy Star Universe, was how you could not change your body proportions and body suit after you've made your character. They gave some silly excuse like the game software couldn't handle it, but…

body suit

NOW YOU CAN!

In this new option for the makeup counter, you can customize your skin color, body suit, and body proportions. Sakai did not want to reveal details of the pricing cost but he did say it was very expensive!

Now you can make a Loli without restarting…

Phantasy Star Portable 2: Fun Fan 3: Promo Video and PSO Forest Run

Fun Fan 3 was released today, so in our usual case, here are the videos on youtube for all to enjoy.

 

Video features a huge snowball, new nanoblasts, new enemies, the item trader, and more. Most of this stuff was already covered here.

 

Noto and Dragon Sakai play through PSO's forest. Watch as their partner characters Toro and Kuro play with them. Sakai also says that if you do a lobby action in front of a partner character, they will react to it.

The official site updated today as well, we'll go through that later on but it's basically a rehash of information. However you can see more higher resolutions of the PSO enemies, and the nanoblasts.

Phantasy Star Portable "PSP the BEST": PSU Chronicle Movie

Phantasy Star Portable: PSP The Best

Phantasy Star Portable PSP the Best will feature 3 episodic movies chronicling the whole Phantasy Star Universe series. It first starts with the SEED INVASION, so that you may know more of the Gurhal Solar System and character history.  It's great for those new players of Phantasy Star Portable 2. Sakai says it was very hard to edit over 30 chapters of video and images together to make one coherent story.

Ethan, Laia, and Lumia will be narrating each episode. The narration voice work is entirely new providing you a sense of feeling and emotion by their respective characters. Also, voice acting is now provided to the script of Episode 3.

However, since Episode 3 has multiple endings (based on S ranking mind you..) certain parts will not shown in the ending of the PSU Chronicle movie.

As for the opening theme of Phantasy Star Portable 2, the "official theme" and the "PSU Chronicle PSP2 opening theme" will be slightly different. Sakai wants you to compare the two openings.
