What potential impact might this game have had on Dreamcast’s legacy if it had been released? Imagine the possibilities that a fully developed MMO could bring to console gaming at its peak.

    The reasons for Farnation’s cancellation are unknown. Rumors suggest that some SEGA executives were pointing out the many similarities with Phantasy Star Online in terms of gameplay experience.
