Hello, I am That Man Over There.
While I am new to this version of Phantasy Star Online, I was actually introduced to this game when I managed to find a copy of version 2 for Dreamcast. While I did enjoy the game, I also had trouble with it, since I always felt like I was missing the MMO portion of Phantasy Star. I did try downloading Phantasy Star Online 2...but I couldn't play it with any of the tricks I picked up for confusing regions.
Long story short, I'm glad that this exists, and I hope I will have lots of fun.
