I cant recommend that game anymore.

Base PSO2 was a really nice game, good action and nice fights.
but New Genesis is just a generic open world "MMO".

The world looks nice, bit is very empty and you find the same pack of enemies ready to get killed.
Quests are boring and repetitive.
Base PSO had a nice set of fashion stuffs but NGS style is, at least for me, extremly bad.
Oh, and even more "Fan Service" Outfits for Females .. again.. All about Booba ig c:

Fighting in New Genesis feels extremly clunky and you feel like you dont have full control over you character.
Like specific Attacks cant be canceled, so you have to time it right otherwise you get slapped in the face.
Combat feels also kinda slow, compared to Base PSO2.
Urgent Quests are boring as hell and not really that challanging.

And last but not least, you can earn ingame Cash by selling Real money scratch items, while you dont get much Money from f2p.
Like, you have weekly Quests that gives you around 400-500k a week.
But if you look at the Stores, you see people selling stuf flike Hairstyles for around 8-11Mil (At least on my Ship).
I think you get the math here. And with every 2 Weeks, there is a new Scratch. So you dont have much time to farm.
Or at least no good F2P friendly farming spots/strategies.
You also need Premium to be able to use the Personal Shop to make money in the first place.
You can get some "3 Days free Shop Pass" but cmon.

Overall, for me, NGS is just a Cashgrab at this point and has alot of "Mobile Game" vibes like you Login, do you Daily Quests and logoff.
Thats because after a few Days after, you have seen everything.

Maybe give it a shot in a Year or so, so you have at least a few weeks of enjoyment.
