I've mentioned it before, but Game Arts' recently release Playstation Vita title, Ragnarok Odyssey, will be getting an online mode patched into it sometime in the near future. Up until now, we've had no details on how exactly this would function. In an interview posted on launch day, the developers have clarified a few details about what exactly the patch does.
You'll be able to use the in-game pub (a location in town) to jump into online sessions. Once connected, you'll see the other players in the lobby, be able to make gestures to them and communicate via text. These functions will of course also be usable during quests as well. If you've ever played Phantasy Star Online, I'm sure you have a pretty solid idea of what to expect from this.
I've been playing on and off since I picked RO up, and I've been having a good time so far. Online play only improves the chances of this going west, so keep your fingers crossed people.
