You know that's why he does it.

ITS NOT FUCKING FAIR

How does this game measure up to the others quality-wise? Never played the series and I have a PS4.
This is my yearly reminder Gust has gone to shit and you're the kind of people they cater to now, and we won't get another Mana Khemia ever
Thank you
>>340228242
One of the best Atelier games to date
Cute cute CUTE!
This series will never have a PC release but I have hope
>>340223745
Stay maduntil tomorrowmotherfucker
>>340229094
Thank god
There's at least one series that underage steamfaggots can't ruin
Just watched a gameplay video of it. This shit looks like a ps2 game
>>340229690
You look like a ps2 game
>>340229690
Which one are you looking up, there are a few versions of it
>watched a gameplay video of it
Kek never ever
>>340228389
Mana Khemia was bad. If you actually liked it you should probably be happy, since Gust's recent Ateliers have followed its style so they're impossible to lose and don't require you to think about anything.
>>340223745
Fuck your entitled nigger ass, at least you'll get to play it eventually. PS3 poorfags got rectally fucked. Is not fucking fair
>>340230227
They're alsoliterallyimpossible to beat entirely
>tfw no physical Vita version in English
Never played any iteration of this before. Is it like Tales or like Pre-FF13
>>340230583
>tfw no Totori gf
>>340230583
You are already settling for the worst preforming version, may as well settle a little more.
>>340230905
>tfw no totori imouto
FTFY
>>340230696
It's turn based battle wise, but it's not really comparable to either game, as you make the items you use to inflict damage in battle.
>>340230583
Limited run games is trying to get the vita versions a physical English print
>>340230458
Get fucked.
>>340230583
Better than streaming it from PS4 to Vita. Shit's unreliable.
>>340223745
Just play something else in the meantime
Are these games actually fun or just weeb trash? Which one would you fags recommend me to start playing?
I'm reviewing it, had it since last week.
>>340231613
Forgot pic
I wish I could get these games for my vita, but I refuse to support NISA on any accord.
>>340231441
nah
>PKEKS WILL NEVER EVER NATIVELY PLAY SOPHIE ON PC
>>340231694
They're alright. There are like 17 by now so some of them are better than others. The better ones do have more robust gameplay which gets kinda hilarious when people play them for the girls and then get super mad when they lose.
Rorona Plus (don't get the original version, it's shit) is the best one to start with. Or you can play Sophie since it just came out, but I have no idea if it's good or not, since, y'know, it just came out. Hence the thread.
>>340231723
Have you noticed any spelling mistakes or grammar errors? KT localization is always eh
>>340231890
NISA has nothing to do with Atelier and hasn't in years.
>>340231694
Sophie is the start of a new trilogy. It comes out tomorrow and you can start out with that one. It's on PS4 and Vita.
>>340231890
Then good thing that Gust is owned by Koei Tecmo and the only thing that NISA does is handle the LEs for Gust games.
>Doesn't come out until 10th in EUland
>No physical copies
NOT FAIR
>>340231890
>tfw NISA completely destroyed criminal girls 2
That being said I'm fairly certain they don't have anything to do with digital copies, just distributing physical.
>>340232095
Nope, didn't look very hard, but the translation looks decent so far.
>>340231576
Oh I see. So it's more open world sort of deal? Like Xenoblade?
Also one more question, I played through Knights of azure recently. It was alright and then bam, fucking yuri. Is there yuri in this game or does Oskar score?
>>340231890
So go digital and don't get the physical LE's.
That's the only thing they're involved with Gust's stuff nowadays.
>>340232357
No it's not, has a 2D world map where you select where you want to go through a text menu.
Fuck i love the nun tittymonster, too bad the fanservice has been toned down a couple of notches.
is this censored?
>>340232831
There's nothing to censor.
>>340231694
Yes, the Atelier series is actually really good if you like JRPG without the "save the world" plot forced down your throat every 5 seconds and prefer a much more mellow adventure with likeable characters. Alchemy is the central gameplay mechanic. You gather stuff and make bombs, weapons, healing items and other stuff with it. Battles are turn-based with enemy spacing so there are AoE attacks and bombs.
If you only have a PS3
Good entry points are either Atelier Rorona Plus (not Plus version is meh) or Atelier Ayesha. But if you don't really care about playing the Arland/Dusk trilogies from the first games you could just get whichever game you want.
If you have a PS4 you might as well skip all the other games and get Sophie.
There are a bunch of other Atelier games spread across systems and PS2 spin-offs like the Iris and Mana Khemia games, but from my experience those are either pretty expensive or rare. Emulating the Ar Tonelico games is recommended due to NIS having done a poor job with the translations and you don't want to pay for those.
>>340232615
Pamela returns yet again?
The absolute madwoman
>>340233160
>>340233160
Logy is in Sophie too.
As to why, I have no clue.
>>340233239
Maybe he'll become male pamela.
>>340233160
>>340232615
Does pamela retain her arland jap voice?
Gust only make girls only game now.

>>340223745
>upload shitty no-name titles and triple AAA western titles months in advance to their release date for pre-order
>won't fucking put up digital pre-order for Atelier
WHY
Why does Sony never fucking allow pre-order on weeb games?
>>340225517
Can you scan that outfit Sophie is wearing in her character page section. I think it's on the right page it's a lil square image. Full color.. Would appreciate it.
is the preorder bonus stuff worth getting?
Time for comfy Atelier without time limit shit. Battle, explore and synthesize at leisure, hell yeah.
>>340234067
Only if you want your friends and family to shake their heads in shame over buying a game for girls.
>>340223745
FUCKING WASTE OF TALENT ON SHITTY CUTE GIRL DOING CUTE THINGS GARBAGE. FUCK THIS SHIT SERIES
>>340234067
KT said the items would be available for purchase in the digital store after a few months or so
I wouldn't worry about it if you don't want to preorder now
>>340234550
>implying girls play games
lol
>>340232080
>>340232139
>>340233019
Alright guys, thanks for the replies. I'll try Atelier Rorona Plus, since I might not like the games and I can find it cheaper than this new game. If I like it then I'll get the newest one.
>>340234757
Get Ayesha. Pink haired MC's are shit.
>>340234696
thanks, much appreciated.
>>340230583
>Gust
>Vita
No thanks
>>340234921
Rorona's hair seems more brown than anything.
>>340234962
E&L plus was surprisingly well optimized, especially compared to the disaster that was ayesha.
Hopefully they don't fuck up shallie plus
>>340235028
Oops.. I switched Rorona and Meruru.
>>340234067
The lewd ps4 theme is worth it.
>>340235372
But meruru is blond.
>>340224032
>we deserve weeb trash
Yeah I think you do
>>340235424
Do the PS4 themes have music?
>>340235498
No, now you're confusing things.
>>340235603
The one I'm using doesn't.
>>340235805
But her hair looks yellow.
>>340234962
>>340235186
Shallie plus looks like a mess judging from the trailers. But Sophie looks like it runs alright.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MY0YK2eA-ZU
>>340235997
Maybe some concept art makes it look like it.. but it's definitely pink in game.
>>340230583
Me sad too. I really wanna buy it on release but I'm thinking I might wait if I can't get 20% off and there's no incentive to buy early.
>>340235534
Kill yourself
>>340224032
Is port begging the default second reply to any weeb thread now?
>live in england
>release date is the 10th and stores are too pussy to post their shit in advance so most of the time you dont get preorders til the day after
epic stuff good country
>>340234067
>he didn't get the preorder items when they got put on the store by accident
>>340236502
It's required for any game not on pc.
>>340236017
I remember hearing Shallie Plus got a patch right after it released that cleaned up the framerate so it's not nearly as bad as the trailers.
>>340234067
What do you think?
This is an alchemist.
>>340235186
I've heard Sophie for vita was really well done too
>>340230227
Stupidest thing I heard all week
Mana Khemia had better and more indepth crafting and combat than any of the Asland trilogy, which was the most bottom of the barrel jrpg I've played since Atelier Iris (which STILL had better crafting than the ps3 shit).
>>340237418
