That's fair. I know you're a good guy :3
Classic is CLOSE to something I would want to play, but being forced to hunt SParts for passable ATA or not being able to migrate a Classic character to Main are both dealbreakers for me, and it's sad.
PSO Main is still a very slow grind for progression in terms of "finishing" your characters. So if the Classic version is designed for the most "masochistic" subset of that already masochistic crowd, it's going to be a VERY slow grind, maybe too slow for most.
Oh well.
So aside from the self-credentialling that you seem to like to do to try to justify your opinion (which you dont need to do btw) in your earlier posts, this kind of bothers me the most I think.
PSO in the main state is not slow whatsoever. It is the fastest and most efficient variant of Blue Burst I've ever seen and unless your goals are to get triple 100%'s in every item, you can "finish" a character pretty damn easily.
Classic isn't meant for masochistic people, it's meant for people that enjoy a more Ver.3 take on the game, which a lot of view to be the best version of the game, without having to invest in Emulators and original hardware in some cases. It is the most readily available iteration of the game version we feel is most balanced to both fun factor and reward factor. And yes we're aware that the idea of a slower game isn't going to be for everybody, we aren't trying to market it towards everyone, we're marketing it towards those that like Ver.3, which is in essence what its for. You're thinking too hard and making up too many reasons why we like it. It's literally that simple.
So you can stop with the name calling and exaggerated implications already. It's not working. On Classic the people got to vote what they wanted for and they got it; no different than being able to vote on a change in main. The only difference is that the thing we voted for was a technical negative to player power, which you obviously don't like. You don't have to like it, you don't even play it (which begs the question as to why you're even in this topic talking about changes to a sub-type game mode you've never stepped foot in because you're too scared of playing without an ATA boosting shield) and I find your self credentialling to be telling.
Classic is the best where it is at now without walls. You have most hours played on Blue Burst, well I can tell you that I have well over 35,000 Hours invested in Ver.3 which is far more than you so I can tell you for certainty that you're wrong and I'm right. (See how dumb that sounds?)
