Well mate, i played i few of them, but i can't already recommend some. These are that I've played
Off-line games
- Phantasy Star Portable 1, 2 and Infinity (this one is japan only, but you can find a English patch on google)
- Phantasy Star Universe and AOTL (it's a update to PSU but released as a standalone game)
Private servers
If you want to, there's also online private servers for old phantasy star games (both Pc only)
Ephinea PSO (the original phantasy star online)
Clementine PSU (the online mode for phantasy star universe AOTL)
Hope you enjoy these games, unfortunately Sega is focusing Phantasy Star as a full online game and forgetting the offline single player games, but I hope they change it in the future
Aah, just a quicky honorable mention
There's a Phantasy Star for the PSVita called Phantasy Star Nova, it has the base PSO2 gameplay but it's a single player game and offline too, but this one I never played, unfortunately
I know, and he will probably get confused about how the game works or something.
I'd still recommend the Portable 2 for any Phantasy Star beginner, it's easy to catch up, it has the best Phantasy Star aesthetics imo and the characters are really nice.
Like Final Fantasy, the very first game is not the best for a newcomer to play

I found it funny cause many many years ago, had a roommate in college that did this same dumbass branding of the school logo, but it didn't look anything like it after it healed. Just looked like a birthmark.
