I discovered Phantasy Star Online yesterday. it is addictive. and, until about 2 hours ago, it locked up my computer after about 10-15 minutes of play (gee, sound familiar?). 2 hours ago I solved this, by simply changing the sound quality to low.

and boy, do I feel stupid. hey, wait. would Halo stop crashing if I cranked the sound quality down? o.o

Graphics are one thing, but I am NOT willing to compromise sound quality.

Of course, my computer, in it's present condition, can't handle full-blown graphics anyways.

I prefer graphics quality over sound, but I have a pair of cheap ass speakers I picked up in '98 for $10 for the primary output. Figure I'll replace them when they die, or when I can afford an x.1 set.

There really isn't any (noticeable) difference in the sound, anyway. I'm guessing it's just a difference between software and hardware processing (hardware would be the setting that kills my computer, of course).

This might be out of the blue...

Um, I know that you don't know me from Tom, Dick, or Harry(having visited your LJ via zonereyrie , but I'm wondering if you're referring to the 'special'*coughcoughfreecoughcough* online servers for the PC version of PSO? Cause, if you are, I'm always looking for new people to play with online...

Yup yup! That's exactly what I'm talking about. ^_^

It has stolen my soul. And I've already discovered a reeeeally cheap way to level androids, which my brother proceeded to exploit the living daylights out of to catch up to me. ¬.¬

Heh! Well, if you ever need someone to help play online, gimmie a call. It'd be nice to find someone else to play online with, given that my friends who play PSO tend not to have the time or the inclination to help me with my addiction. :)
