Who actually thought it was a good idea to have ateliers age to 30?
>WAAAH WAAAAH I CANT BE A PEDO ANYMORE
fuckoff waifufag
>>318066846
good to see you don't even get it and never played atelier
People with good taste. Rorona was at her best in Totori, and Totori was at her best in Meruru. Ateliers get better as they age.
Esty is the best!
Christmas cake Ayesha is literally a dream come true, fuck off fag.
>>318066728
>Implying they won't just make her a little kid like they did with Rorona
fuck off Astrid
FUCK YES MILF MARINA INOUE
MY DICK IS DIAMONDS
Are these games "comfy?" I get a Fallgourd Float vibe from them, which I love. Or Thomas Kinkade, who you can shit on but can't deny the comfiness.
Women after 18 are literally worthless and should suicide.
>>318066728
Me, I would have loved to see Ayesha in-game and older. I think she would be a great teacher too, unlike Totori who, despite her incompetence, managed to tutor a great alchemist with the help of one and a half other, greater alchemists beside her.
>>318067768
They are comfy 90% of the time. The stories are never about the fate of the world and are only personalized stories with a set time limit to the main character like Totori becoming an adventurer and alchemist to find her mother or Ayesha trying to save her sister from the spirit world thingy before she fades away forever. Totori easily has the best conclusion to her story
>>318067459
wait, Ayesha is voiced by Marina?
I gotta get that shit
>>318068638
there's no dual audio
>>318068741
There is in the Vita version.
>>318066728
she's a total cutie
>>318068820
No one has a vita.
A ton of people
Loli Rorona wasn't received well
>>318068821
She's probably been banged by Juris.
>>318068885
Thank fuck. Loli Rorona and Totori were the worst two things in Meruru.
>>318066728
Because Christmas Cake is fucking delicious.
>>318067203
Agreed, I loved how the Arland protagonists grew up to be the mentors of the next games' protagonists. While it could have done better overall Arland was much better about showing the characters growing and changing over the games than Dusk was.
>>318068867
I do, and have ayesha, I'm thinking about buying and playing rorona first though, then if I like rorona buy totori and then meruru AND THEN play ayesha.
I got ayesha on a sale...
Is rorona good?
>>318069616
The original Rorona is kinda blah gameplay-wise, but Plus is good as it integrates a lot of the improvements they made in subsequent games. Story-wise it's the weakest of the PS3 Ateliers, but it's a decent introduction.
>>318069616
Rorona, Totori, and Meruru are all in the Arland series. Ayesha is the beginning of the Twilight series. Rorona is skippable since it's the weakest in my opinion and the few crossover characters aren't too important or explained who they are. I'd say play Ayesha first since it tone is different from the Arland series and a lot of people have trouble with that
Who would want to see a Rorona in her 30's?
>>318069301
In Arland alchemy was this big mystery that LITERALLY FOUR PEOPLE in the entire game series know how the fuck it works. It started with two and grew by one each game.
Dusk there's an entire civilization where alchemy is fairly common and can be done by most people and there's entire fucking schools devoted to teaching one aspect of it.
>>318069616
Alchemy wise, Rorona is nearly the same as Meruru which is nearly the same as Totori which is pretty much the same as Rorona.
Character wise is going to be opinions, but I liked the cast of Meruru -> Rorona -> Totori in that order.I'm assuming we're talking of the pluses
Ayesha is a different tale and world entirely and is my second favorite Atelier, with Annie being my first.
Let me ask you a question: How much do you like pigeons?
>>318070082
>the few crossover characters aren't too important
Sterk and Rorona are very important in Totori, dude.
Just buy Rorona Plus.
>>318068867
Epic +1
>>318070284
Sterk is literally the worst character in the series. He's nothing in a world full of colorful characters. Also no Liona, no Tantris, and Cordelia is reduced to essentially a receptionist
>>318070821
>Sterk is literally the worst character in the series
Kill yourself faggot. Literally the worst taste I've ever seen besides from this one loser I saw once who likes loli Rorona.
>>318070821
>He's nothing in a world full of colorful characters
He goes batshit insane because of these colorful characters.
>>318070092
The Japanese audience
>>318071102
Who cares
>>318070821
Well, yeah- the whole idea is that he's the "straight guy," the one somewhat normal person among the moeblobs and weirdos that constitute the rest of the cast.
Well, at least in the first two games- in the third game his shattered dream of being a knight combined with being around actual royalty again causes him to go full mid-life crisis.
>>318066728
>Who thought it was a good idea to make all atelier protags girls sothey reach the safme waifufag tier of neptunia, being called "Ateliers"?
fuckoff waifufag
Is there a flowchart for these games? There's so goddamn many I have no idea where to start. inb4 just start with the first one, no one (except huge fags) would say Shadow Dragon is the best FE to start with, then again I am assuming these games work in separate arcs like Fire Emblem does
>>318071934
It's pretty simple, actually.
Wanna start with Arland? Rorona+->Totori->Meruru
Wanna start with Dusk? Ayesha->Escha->Shallie
i dont play these games, which one do i need to get to have a 30ish lady alchemist person as my mc?
>>318072891
Sadly, the protagonists are all teenage girls. OP is from the recently-announced remake of Shallie, where 30some-year-old Ayesha can join your party.
>>318072891
>as my mc
None of them. As a character in your party? Meruru normal and + have one, Rorona + has one and soon Shallie + will have one.
>>318072891
None.
Well none as the MC.
Mana khemia 3 when?
Ateliers need more ara ara anyways.
