Phantasy Star Online BB Ephinea Server Review (Pictures provided from Chadstar (@chadexcuse) also known as Chad Nub on the server) PSO Ephinea Server is a revival of the servers Sega has shut down some time ago, and is completely free to play. The holy grail of reviews is here, my favorite series being PSO (not to be mistaken for PSO2) PSO is a MMO that started out on the dreamcast and is highly regarded as one of the best games of it’s time. However, calling PSO a MMO by today’s standards may be a slight stretch but for those of you whom never heard of it or know much about it, I’ll provide the basic details. Jump In - Jump Out Teams PSO has a certain shine to it due to the community. What Ephinea offers in particular is a small niche of devoted players that are essential to your hunt on Ragol.

  Life Is Strange: Before The Storm is a prequel before the original Life Is Strange - and the game does well to fortify the experience of playing Life Is Strange - then Before The Storm as BTS would not make a ton of sense to a newcomer of the series (as far as side characters go) however that being said, Before The Storm does have a lot of elements in the game that require further discussion.
