Phantasy Star Online Ep 1 and 2 Plus is basically a hack n slash online RPG that came out for the Gamecube, it is basically Japanese developed and became very popular in JP and America retrospectively, this game has extremely high amounts of replayability if you have patience and don't mind repetitiveness. It's setting is a sci-fi environment with beautiful music and art and has all the classes you would expect in an RPG, with a sci-fi twist. You can be an Android, Human, or Elf like race, each with their own special appearance differences and bonuses. This game is so good that some of the fans keep playing for years, sometimes decades. This was a really great and beautiful game for it's time, and if you don't already know what it is, play it. I personally got this to play PSO offline as I play this and it's sequel PSO2 on the PC already. I have seen and tried this in my childhood and frankly, I feel too young when I play with other players, the playerbase is very mature and entertaining and I suggest you play the PC versions of this game on private servers or the sequel that is currently JP only. Some other features of this game include all kinds of loot to find, basically customize your character with the weapons you've found, some decent challenge for a hack n slash RPG, and the fact that this is basically a party based MMORPG. This game is really good and can be played for DAYS, it's still a very successful series and if you haven't played it give it a try.
