Why do you play PSO?

[Forge]

Always funny when ya go to the moment of "my character isn't strong enough" so you take the controller for a sec and beat the boss they had problems with and point out what they could of done. (Though they usually get a little fustraited cause of me telling them how to do it all the time.)

Personally, I prefer to let them learn the secrets for themselves. I will always offer information, but I find that people react better when they complete things for themselves.

However, I feel that it's good to be a mentor at PSO - and my friends have never declined my presents of a Red Handgun or God/Mind.

I still play to get inspiration to continue my PSO fanfics.

I think that this is a very interesting idea as it merges the two genres of game and literature. Furthermore, it has hearkenings to the early series of the game by giving it a story. Just how close do you stay to the crossover and veer from Phantasy Star?
