What happened to this anyway?
First Atelier game TK is passing on localizing? I know it came and went without fanfare in Japan, did they just forget it existed?
>>316551242
aren't these games fucking gay lol?
It's an inferior port of a 6 year old game.
Any westerner who wants to play Atelier Rorona+ can play the Vita or PS3 release.
For fucks sake, they can can even play the whole trilogy for 40 bucks.
Who knows when the fuck totori 3DS or meruru 3DS would ever get made or localized.
>>316551242
I'm a sucker for Rorona, she looks so gorgeous on the cover. I own Rorona and Rorona+ and I would still get this.
>>316551242
>people complained about chibi characters in the original
>let's make a 3DS version that's even more chibi
anyone who wants to play it will choose Rorona Plus
>caring about atelier rorona minus
>>316551242
people who would buy a gust video game outside of japan who dont own a vita is a pretty small audience
seems pointless to localize desu senpai
There's already three versions of Rorona localized.
Why do we need another?
>>316551384
Gay in the best kind of way.
>>316551685
I think you mean two.
Rorona and Rorona+
>>316551742
I was counting the vita and ps3 version of rorona+ as their own version
>>316551804
Technically 4, as they released an Atelier Arland collection too.
>>316551883
NISA released that.
THey used artwork from Rorona+ but the collection has the original Rorona in it.
I think that's illegal.
>>316551804
Why? They're the same game.
>>316551883
It's just the non-plus arland trilogy.
>>316551973
It's still cheaper to buy the bundle and Rorona+ than all 3 games separately.
>>316552814
still illegal
>>316553968
When why hasn't KT sued nisa yet?
Really tho, the original Rorona game should have been illegal.
The character models in-game look nothing like their 2D illustrations and it took a rerelease to fix that.
Are any of the other games good? The only Atelier game I played was this one on the DS called Atelier Anna or something. Didn't get too far into it but I liked it a lot.
>>316554673
All the ps3 games are good in my opinion besides the original rorona
>>316554464
NISA and KT are tight. KT got NISA to do the LE for Escha+
Maybe KT is just willing to overlook it?
>>316554925
Or maybe both of them have an exclusive license to use whatever assets from the game franchise to market their localized games?
>>316554835
Neat. I noticed some of them were on sale, are they connected in anyway or standalone?
>>316554464
what the fuck are you even saying
tk didn't have anything to do with gust or nisa when the original atelier rorona was released
>>316555082
They're in trilogies on PS3.
Arland trilogy goes
Rorona+ - Totori - Meruru
Dusk is
Ayesha - Escha/Logy - Shallie
>>316555191
Awesome, thanks mate.
>>316551242
how do you unlock the totori and meruru in rorona plus.I finished the game withought seeing them.
>>316551242
Who the fuck would buy this?
>>316555082
>KT sale
>no rorona plus
>no meruru plus
Fuck!
>>316555497
I wouldIt looks cute
>>316555191
you are firgetting the iris trilogy on the ps2, or marie and ellie for the dream cast
>>316555947
i haven't played anything pre arland
Been meaning to, just haven't gotten around to it
>>316556053
the dreamcast ones are more like a dating sim... if you speak good moon, and the iris ones are very combat based, with some of the most fun and engaging combat i've seen in any rpg
https://youtu.be/3gBm47fkEtg
>>316556214
https://youtu.be/Narn7f5QE-8
oops meant this one
How do you pronounce atelier?
I feel like I've been saying it wrong for years.
>>316551701
Now you got my attention, son. Do tell what they're about. I know the combat is turned based, but what makes it special?
>>316551242
Because it's a downgrade and it sold like shit.
>>316556343
atta-lay rorona
>>316556396
Being a cute alchemist that makes bombs and shit
>>316552814
>It's still cheaper to buy the bundle and Rorona+ than all 3 games separately.
But you should be getting Totori+ and Meruru+ as well, not the inferior original versions.
>>316551384
>males playing video games with a high ratio of female characters is gay
I must be the biggest fucking faggot alive.
>>316556396

>>316556343
アトリエ
>>316556521
totori+ and meruru+ don't add anything substantial to the base game unless you think a few extra DLC costumes and the un-loli rorona ending in meruru is worth being stuck playing on Vita only.
>>316551530
Good goy
>>316556716
ah-to-leeeh?
>>316556459
what the fuck?
>>316556716
kek
I don't know why but these games always end up being surprisingly deep and fun.
One of the few RPGs out there where I'll actually take out a notepad and jot down notes to make sure I keep track of everything.
>>316556734
Totori+ adds that big dungeon from Rorona into it.
>worth being stuck playing on Vita
That's not an actual argument. They're still better than the original versions.
>>316556967
i feel ya, its one of the most under rated rpg series... and that makes me pleased knowing hipster scum will never find it
>>316556053
Don't bother, Iris is shit with terrible gameplay and horrid writing. Mana Khemia is a tedious grindfest.
>>316557037
>That's not an actual argument. They're still better than the original versions.
My argument is that they're not actually worse than the Plus versions.
>>316556925
>ah-to-leeeh?
You need to work on your kana.
>>316557102
i wouldn't say shit, i mean it is bad, but its one of those guilty pleasures that i enjoy
>>316557131
>My argument is that they're not actually worse than the Plus versions.
But they literally are. They're exactly the same except the Plus versions have more content.
>>316557101
Fuck off back to Reddit or wherever the fuck you came from.
>>316557246
Not him, but I prefer playing on the big screen versus the Vita. Though with crossplay, I guess you could always do both.
WHEN THE FUCK ARE THOSE NIPS GOING TO RELEASE IT ON PC
IT'S ON PS3 TWICE AND ON VITA
JUST FUCKING DO IT ALREADY YOU BASTARDS
>>316557370
Or you could use a Vita TV. Or you could use the Vita's HDMI-out.
How many hours on average are the vita versions of Atelier? Have yet to own a Vita and the forging/crafting based gameplay interests me.
>>316557246
But I don't have a vita, nor does anyone I know have a vita.
Plus, the the ps3 versions are cheaper, and the only real substantial plus update was rorona+, which got a PS3 release.
>>316557382
Never
>>316557436
So what? None of that has anything to do with the + versions being better than the originals.
>>316557382
Never going to happen because KT are retarded.
>>316557382
Literally never.
KT has repeatedly stated that they want absolutely nothing to do with the perverts on the PC platform.
Don't cite Compile Heart, they're the town bicycle.
>>316557382
How do you feel knowing 3DS got it before PC? Must be horrible.
>>316557410
>Vita's HDMI-out
Shit, this is an option?
>>316557435
Around 30 hours for one playthrough. You'll put a lot more time into them if you want to do the endgame dungeons and get the true endings.
>>316557548
>KT don't want anything to do with PC
DoA5LR and warriors games being released on PC left and right
Sure, fuck off, they're just being assholes at this point.
>>316557493
Why are you still arguing?
I'm not buying a vita to get the "better" meruru experience.
Also, the digital-only thing really kills it for me.
I don't buy digital copies of anything.
>>316557713
sorry, I meant Gust didn't want to touch PC ever again.
>>316557548
What did compile heart said?
>>316557717
>I'm not buying a vita to get the "better" meruru experience.
That's fine. You don't have to. I never said you had to. I just said that the + versions are better than the originals. Why are you taking it like a personal offence?
>>316557775
Gust haven't said a single thing on the matter.
>>316556343
at-leer
I doubt that's correct, but nobody has ever wondered what I meant
Shallie was my favorite Atelier and I'm really excited to play Sophie.
>>316557973
I hope we get it in 2016 in the west
>>316556343
əˈtɛlJeJ
>>316557435
About 30 hours for your first play though. After that you can New Game + and work on the other endings and endgame bosses. The next playthroughs go much quicker so it's close to around 50ish hours if you want to beat everything and get every ending in them.
Ayesha+ is on sale this week on Vita for $20 too.
>>316557973
I really dislike the new designs. I loved the art for both Arland and Dusk but I really hate the way Sophie's artist draws faces, and I'm put off by how much blatant sexual fanservice there is with Prafta. I didn't want Atelier to go the way of Neptunia.
>>316558147
>waaah muh blatant fanservice
Fuck off retard
Mel from Totori was running around in a bikini top.
>>316558147
I like the things you don't like and also don't see how they connect to gameplay.
>>316558223
Please point to me where Mel shoved her vagina in the viewer's face in her first revealed promotional artwork.
>>316558147
I find it hilarious when people object to atelier being thrown in the same boat as neptunia when they're practically the same game and it's nearly the same group of people who play both.
>>316557924
The "r" isn't pronounced. It's french.
>>316558286
>they're practically the same game and it's nearly the same group of people who play both.
>>316558286
and this is how you spot someone who never played atelier before
>>316551685
because some of us don't own a Vita and want to check this game out on a handheld.

Tough shit I guess
Either get a PS3 or vita if you want to play Atelier.
>>316558286
Wow this single frame of two videos really proved your point. Based on these single frames I truly know that the two games are exactly the same and play just like each other.
>>316558431
keep proving me right
>>316558286
Nepfags would never touch Atelier since it has ugly gross boys in it.
>>316556343
at-tell-yay
>>316558286
Jesus Christ, by just watching gameplay vids of both would make a sane person conclude they are not similar gameplay wise. At all.
Neptunia is mostly bad.
Atelier is good.
Simple as that.
>>316559058
>Atelier is good.
wew lad
I'm a yuri fan and I play both Nep and Atelier games. Atelier is a lot higher quality in my opinion and I definitely like them more.
>>316557382
>WHEN THE FUCK ARE THOSE NIPS GOING TO RELEASE IT ON PC
Hasn't it been the localisation companies doing most of the PC ports lately?
>>316558765
>Best boy didn't get an ending
I'm still mad.
>>316558765
Didn't many neptunia fans send angry death threats when they found out one of the nep games had a male protag?
>>316552814
>Why? They're the same game.
Its complicated. There's an NIS localization and a Koei Tecmo one.
>>316556608
Mana Khemia is still the best thing Gust has ever made
>>316559539
Noire's game had a self-insert. I don't know if death threats were sent but yeah, that shit was unacceptable. It was made by fucking Sting though and they didn't really know what they were doing.
>>316559858
>There's an NIS localization and a Koei Tecmo one.
No there isn't. The + releases just reuse NISA's localisation except for the new scenes, which are done by Actill, who are former NISA members anyway.
>>316559918
So I'm right in assuming nep fans are self-inserting as the girls and noire ruined that?
Is this coming out for PS3 in the West?
>>316558723
Okay.
>>316560054
I don't know about other people but I don't self-insert as anyone in Nep games.
>>316560293
Probably not given how KT is only localizing the PS4 version of Yoru no Nai Kuni.
>>316560293
It'll probably be PS4 only

They're pig disgusting yuri fans
>>316560994
>>316560840
They bear similarity in extremely basic areas that literally hundreds of games share the same similarities in.
The important part is that the gameplay is entirely different, and that Atelier is actually a good game while Neptunia is trash.
>>316560994
>I'm just saying it bears similarity to another game.
>>316558286

Just stop. The bait image doesn't even contain the most important part about Atelier games: The Alchemy System.

So is atelier basically neptunia set in victorian times?
>>316561840
>victorian
>>316561072
What's wrong with liking yuri?
>>316555497
Those are actually bullshots. The actual game on the 3ds never looked that good.
>>316561925
Nothing.
What is wrong is hating the idea of a game possibly even having a male character in it because it would get in the way of the yuri.
>>316561689
Shallie has been out for a while now. You have to play Aeysha and then Escha & Logy before it though.
>>316551242
3ds version bombed in Japan. They probably think the 3ds owners here wouldn't want it either.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlxVpxvz7BA

>>316561925
The fans who constantly talk about and inane shipping shit.
Also as the Anon above said, throwing a tantrum because it interferes with said shipping shit.
One could possibly make the argument that Neptunia would never have good general threads, but the people posting about muh yuri didn't help.
>>316560293
Given how almost every Jap dev has been localizing only the PS4 version of games with PS3/Vita versions, likely not.
>>316562029
Should I go with those as opposed to the Arland trilogy? Is Rorona+ good?
>>316562346
You'll hear mixed opinions on Dust generally, and while I like the Dust games as well, it's generally agreed Arland > Dusk
>>316562346
When most people mention atelier, they mean the arland series, so yes, rorona+ is gud.
go play it.
>>316562017
Well nobody wants a self-insert or a guy in a Nep game. I'm a yuri fan but I'm fine with most of the Atelier guys though. I think you might be misunderstanding yuri fans. We all just love cute 2D girls.
>>316562404
I wouldn't say anything is "generally" agreed. Both series are good. Each of them have one game I disliked though.
How come I never see anyone discussing gameplay for either series?
It's always
>atelier is great
>muh god-tier crafting system
>neptunia is grindy but the girls are worth it
Nobody ever talks gameplay.
Is there none?
is that why nobody ever talks about the actual things that happen in the game?
>>316562667
Because you've never looked at a thread when a new game just came out.
>>316562115
All of the art for Sophie has been great but they really fucked up on this album cover specifically.
>>316551242
>Port of a port of a port

>>316562667
There hasn't been anything new in Atelier for a while and most of the conversations have tapered out.
Escha+ in January might spark some conversation
>>316562847
>>Port of a port of a port
Hai Lordkat, I missed you.
>>316551242
Neptunia is the superior series that's why it's on PC for the master race.
>Superior story
>Superior characters
>Superior gameplay
Everything is better.
I've been playing the first Mana Khemia and really enjoying it, is the rest of the Atelier series similar? What would be a good starting point into the series? And finally, not to shitpost, but how big is the yuri pandering? I don't hate yuri, but if it's a major part of the story I'm probably going to lose interest.
>>316563176
yes, because being able to power through any battle by transforming with zero thought involved makes for a stellar gameplay experience.
The profound dialog just seals the deal!
>>316559932
>new scenes, which are done by Actill, who are former NISA members anyway.
That's what I meant. Or else Esty "Dee" would have been changed right?
I would get this and the mobage if TK would only release it, because Rorona is a good girl.
>>316563317
Luckily Rebirth 2 has a fan retranslation on steam that removes the shitty memes
>>316563226
The battle system takes a nosedive until Escha & Logy. And the only real yuri stuff is Mimi's tsundere lust for Totori.
>>316563330
Esty Dee was left as is in Rorona+ for consistency.
>>316561807
Guard when he attacks and use items.
>>316561807
how are you making PS3 screenshots?
>>316563317
>>316563317
That single line is far more profound, deep and interesting than a single line from that dull boring garbage Atelier.
>>316556343
uh-tell-ee-ay
>>316559913
They're mediocre at best. They're better than the Iris games at least but every other Atelier destroys them. Nights of Azure might as well.
>>316556343
ah' te lee ayy'
>>316556343
It means you didn't play any of the Arland trilogy.
When you boot up the game and the title screen pops up, a character will say the title.
>a-te-li-yer (Meruru Plus)
You read that in Meruru's voice if you played it.
>>316562404
>generally agreed that Arland > Dusk
What fantasy land do you live in? It's typically an even split.
>>316563226
MK is a nostalgiafag meme game.
>>316563876
Stop samefagging shitposterkun. Atelier is Arland, Arland is Atelier. Get over it.
>>316563893
I'm playing it for the first time right now, so it's kind of hard for me to be nostalgic about it. I'm glad to hear the rest of the Atelier series is even better, though.
>>316563945
The only Arland game that can hand with the Dusk games is Rorona Plus.
>>316563945
I really, really liked Rorona's English dub voice. Am I alone?
>>316564045
I like all of their dub voices desu.
>>316564001
You are either a moron or ironic shitposter. Rorona Plus's combat and alchemy are identical to Meruru. Only thing that changes is the garden, which makes up for the lack of world upgrade in Rorona Plus and thus quality materials being harder to get.
>>316564045
I prefer Illya as Rorona.
I want rorona to ambush me and tie me up in her workshop basement and then make assertive yet consensual love to my body!
>>316564256
She'd probably just bake a pie and force you to taste test it at the most.
>>316564256
Town is too close to the water for houses to have basements.
Its shit and looks like shit. Why waste time bringing shit over?
>>316563226
There's no pandering. Just legitimately cute interactions between Mimi and Totori. You don't have to like yuri to be able to like those two together. There's also Meruru and Keina as well.
>>316564413
Because chibi Meruru is kawaii as fuck desu senpai.
>>316564509
chibishit
no thanks
>>316564045
Yes. Dubs are awful. Get some taste.
>>316564491
There's no yuri between Meruru and Keina.
>>316564413
I already bought Rorona+ on PS3, if they brought the 3ds version over I'd probably buy that too
>>316564154
Except Meruru has a weaker cast, worse protagonist, less interesting areas, and worse music. Rorona's mission based structure is superior as well. Hence Meruru can't hang with the Dusk games.It's still a good game though.
>>316564587
How about I taste your ass? Would that be better?
>>316564665
Well all you are doing is proving your utterly shit taste.
>>316564665
Don't forget. When you read the OST notes in Atelier Meruru +, the composer says Merurulooks like a dog, or a bitch for that matter, because of her hair. I'll never see her the same again, as her Atelier Workshop theme is doggy-like.
>>316564509
I don't get why so many people hate the chibi look. It's fucking adorable and considering Atelier is a series known for cute girls it's a good fit for a 3DS game. Then again I liked Project Mirai's graphics too.
>>316563226
May as well just post this since that's the third time this thread already.
>>316564636
There's yuri subtext between them. It's not hard to imagine them together anon.
>>316564819
project diva > project mirai
atelier rorona+ > atelier rorona-
>>316564749
>shit taste
I guess I deserve that for saying Meruru is a good game. I regretted it as soon as it was posted.
>>316564665
Rorona was the worst Arland game though while Meruru was the best.

>>316564665
Rorona's assignments are so easy they might as well not exist. Half way into the game you are making ice bomb and barrels for assignments. Having 12 assignments was a nice idea in theory (12 tasks of Hercules) but it forced GUST to make each of them easy as fuck and fairly uninteresting.
>>316564969
Fuck that's how I've been saying it this whole time.
>>316564687
I have a rimjob fetish. Are you a cute 2D girl?
>>316564943
Vanilla Rorona was slightly worse. Rorona Plus is much better than Meruru in nearly every way. And we all know Totori is the worst PS3 Atelier (game).
>>316565012
Of course not. So, we doing this? I'm getting hungry.
>>316564856
There's as much yuri subtext between them as there is fag subtext between you and any one of your guy friends, if you have any.
>>316564256
I want Totori to harvest my semen to make homonculi with!
>>316565006
Its correct though. Hearing it from Meruru's VA it sounds great. Just say it fast, and don't stress the "yer".
I think Gio or Sterk says
>A-tel-li-yay
>>316565004
Meruru is easy too. They're all easy.
I feel like I should play both but I know I'm gonna regret getting neptunia mk2 and atelier just looks dry as fuck.
>>316564819
Did you even look at the image? Even if the chibi aesthetic was good it's ruined by the 3DS's shitty resolution and awful jaggy appearance as a result.
Besides, the faces are the only thing that look half-decent in that aesthetic anyway. Gust have become well-known for making great looking character models and Rorona+ reflected that. The character models in Rorona- look like shit. They have nothing going for them outside of "but big heads are cute".
>>316564969
I'm not a faggot frenchman so I pronounce it with a "yer".
>>316564773
>a dog, or a bitch
I think he meant something different to how those inept fucks at NISA translated it.
>>316565190
Well, if you know you won't like Nep, then check out Atelier. It's not as bad as people think it is just by looking at it. The only thing I'd really like changed is more adventuring and less time management, and maybe less girl stuff, but keep in mind that this is coming from someone who has only played Rorona (not Rorona+).
>>316565079
Do you not like cute girls with other cute girls? I can assure you there was subtext. I remember Keina telling Meruru that she would always be together with her.
>>316565047
Meruru has better combat despite Rorona+ using the same system because Meruru's ability synergizes with combos, and because there are more opportunities to manipulate time cards besides spamming pinwheels.
I like Rorona's cast better but you get most of them in Meruru anyway.
Meruru has better item variety and more things you can do with alchemy.
Rorona+ was a great remake of an already good game, but given that they were trying to imitate Meruru pretty much 100%, I don't know why anyone, aside from wanting to be a faggot, would say it was better than Meruru.
>>316565256
there's nothing wrong with that translation
bitch just means something vulgar in english
>>316565198
Even with the jaggies and low resolution it's still cute as fuck.
>>316565246
>I'm not French so I intentionally pronounce a French loanword incorrectly even though I know the correct pronunciation
No, you definitely are a faggot.
Do you also pronounce karaoke as carry-oh-key, or does that get more respect because it's grorious nippon?
>>316565316
Bitch means a slut in the Japanese context.
>>316565103
>Its correct though.
>>316565308
Because some people have taste and thus like Rorona Plus better.
>>316565348
Do you call a samurai a saw-moo-raw-ee, or a sam er rye?
>>316565190
You can always just pirate Neptunia.
>>316565357
you mean the loanword "bitch" or the japanese word for female dog?
>>316565348
That's exactly how I pronounce karaoke and you're still the only faggot here.
>>316565452
Loanword.
>>316565392
>I like to eat shit, so I prefer Meruru Minus to Meruru.
>>316565407
The latter, given that that's correct. Why would you assume otherwise?
>>316565481
>I pronounce karaoke wrong but you're still the faggot
>>316565390
I'm saying I don't really mind. She pronounces it with "yer" but relatively quick, so the "r" doesn't really stand out.
>>316565501
Well at least you admit that preferring anything Meruru is akin to earthing shit.
Better versions of this game have been out on PS3 and Vita for a while now. There's no point in localizing this, especially considering how badly it bombed in Japan.
>>316565551
It's not correct though, so don't say it's correct.
>>316565551
There is no r sound in Jap アトリエ.
Ah-telly-ur
Am I a faggot?
>>316565638
I obviously mean, at the end of the word.
>>316565638
Why even mention the Jap spelling/pronunciation when there's no er sound in the original French word to begin with? Ending it with -er is simply a mispronunciation and nothing more.
>friend only plays edgy games like Demon's Souls, Dragons Dogma and Red Dead Redemption on his PS3
>hasn't touched his PS3 in months
>buy 2 copies of Atelier Rorona Plus ~The Alchemist of Arland~ on release
>cashier asks for ID even though it's rated Teen
>confused but hand it over anyway
>hear her laugh as I leave the store
>give one copy of the game to my friend
>feel embarrassed so I play it off as a prank
>talking to him a week later
>he still hasn't played the game
>check his psn profile
>full of Rorona Plus achievements
>go over the his place a month later
>he bought all the Atelier games even though he just finished Rorona Plus
>>316565715
>Why even mention the Jap spelling/pronunciation
Because it's a fucking Japanese game you moron, holy shit.
>>316565638
Atorieh?
>>316565756
It's a Japanese game with the name that is taken from the French word atelier, you fucking moron, holy shit.
>>316565758
a-to-ri-e
>>316565839
This. The katakana matches.
>>316565791
So go and tell the Japs they are pronouncing their own game wrong in their own language. You obviously don't have any qualms about being a huge faggot.
>>316565752
Isn't this a pasta?
>>316565963
>So go and tell the Japs they are pronouncing their own game wrong in their own language.
But they're not. The Jap pronunciation is the same as the French pronunciation, at least in terms of adapting it to their speech system. The only ones pronouncing it incorrectly are the idiots here who end it with -er instead of -ay.
>>316556343
I pronounce it like "A Tall Lee, Eh?".
>>316566036
Yes. It was spammed as a thread for months.
>>316566052
Faggiest pronounciation ITT.
ometedou, dude
does the ps3 atelier bundle come on 1 disk or what?
>>316551242
I read this game was the port of a mobile version
Do not want
>>316566292
You don't want the bundle. It's a release by NISA that uses the shitty old Rorona as well as the base versions of every game.
Totori+ and Meruru+ are simple ports with more content and Rorona+ is a full remake that is far better than the honestly kind of shit original game.
>>316566307
No, it was built from the ground up on 3DS hardware. Unless there's a mobile version of Rorona.
>>316566307
It's not a port of the mobile game, but the chibi models are ripped from the mobile game.
And the mobile game had significantly better graphics.

There's a Sophie theme? Is it free?
>>316566558
There are two themes, one is from event that ended, other is from pre-order.
