PSU... Better than PSO!?

[Phantom_RAcast]

I can sorta agree that combat is better in PSU; its much more customizable with all of the fun PAs and such! I do like that everyone could use techs in PSO, and there are some wittle things in PSO I prefered other than that. All in all, I have no idea which one is better!

You sit and mash the attack button over and over and then occasionally use a photon art which is just a flashy attack. How is that any better than PSO's combat system? You dont even have to try to time combos because they're completely taken out.

That actually drove me nuts. I spent time and time again trying to combo by hitting the x button 3 times, no more...to no avail. What got me even more irritated was that if you repetitively mashed too slow, your combo slowed down, or completely stopped.
To this date, (I am not entirely sure the reason why, but it may have been repetitive button mashing.) I have a controller that presses start, left, R2, and X whenever you press the X button. Needless to say, had to buy a new one.

Everyone can use techs in PSU too, you just need a wand. Offline, anyway.

That's not the case online. Only techer-based classes can use Technics. =P

That's why I hate PSU. Online and offline are too far apart.

[Orphen]

Far apart? Offline is just broken.

[nomercy]

That too. But I meant that there are too many differences between them.

[Orphen]

Axes don't exist offline, Weapon ranks are retarded, Hunters/Rangers can use canes, Level ups take about 1/100th the time they do offline...PMs are just broken, etc...

Oh, and Rising Strike sucks ass.

[nomercy]

Unfortunately I agree with every single one of those.

Hey, PSU isn't ALL button mashy! I think its fun to dodge attacks, smash some stuff with a TECHNIC, bullet or sword skill, and have fun! I'm not sure which battle system is BETTER, but they're both great.
