The Atelier Marie remake will be only 10 hours long, will you still buy it?
https://noisypixel.net/atelier-marie-remake-the-alchemist-of-salburg-10-hours-playtime/
>>
>>2968758
10 hours is a perfectly fine length for an RPG. The gameplay, especially the combat's going to have to be a lot better than Atelier's standards to get me to buy it though.

Anyone got games comparison chart saying Atelier thighza, Atelier Puni DX, etc...

The focus is on replayability differently from the recent games which are one and done.
>>
>>2968920
The game gives you plenty of time, and you can technically meet the requirements for every ending in a single playthrough as long as do them in the right order. So no, there's not a whole lot to replay it for.
>>
>>2968758
I've already preordered it on Play Asia.
>>
>>2968758
That's a virtue, not a flaw. I'm really tired of the current trend of game development aiming more towards long games that don't really justify their length.

Fuck guys, Koei is on a streak of releasing bad performance games as of now. I hope thighza won't have this issue upon release.

Even in PS and Xbox? Not-so good PC performance is common in recent consumers though, also for Hogwart and Atomic Hearts.

The only game with overall good performance - graphics ratio was Ryza 1.
Same resource usage as Firis - Lulua with way better lighting system, textures, maps and drawing distance.

I'm about 45 hours into Firis and I'm kinda struggling to keep playing the game. The alchemy is more confusing than Sophie and I still really don't understand it. Quality, letter grade, components, traits, etc, it's not clear what I should be focusing on the make better stuff.
Also the inventory management is shit since you have to talk to like 5 different merchants just to sell your excess materials.
Chasing down random materials is getting boring, my gear is shit, the music is glitchy, and I barely passed the exam. I feel like I should just move onto Lydie and Suelle.

Make the broom and the airship (Meklet & Atomina's questline) ASAP, then the underwater stuff (Flussheim).

Honestly, Firis is a pretty easy game outside of the optional (reskinned) bosses, I beat all the bosses in character routes just by tossing bombs, you don't need to make any try hard gear.

Pro-tip: Ori bomb is bugged and does MORE damage than Peta bomb (its supposed upgrade) and Ori bomb can be learned really early on, so just spam it everywhere. Lightning Crystals are also good as they delay the enemy's turn.

Some spreadsheets and guides if you're really struggling:

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/ps4/190844-atelier-firis-the-alchemist-and-the-mysterious-journey/faqs/75906

Lydie & Suelle references ALL of the post-exam events, just so you know, so I recommend following the above guide and completing all character routes. You need to complete most of them to unlock the true ending anyway.

As we know Lydie & Suelle and Lulua are basically the same game but reskinned. But anyone else think their OST is too much similar?
Maybe Im just being schizo or everyone already thought about it but most of their themes are either too similar or were made into a comfy version (L&S) and intense/epic version (Lulua)
For example L&S Sunflower sounds too much like Lulua Axis and Kalma sounds like an intense fast paced remix of Shooting star for Lydie and Suelle.
Im pretty sure Cygnus is some kind MARIA remix too

There's only 2 big remakes in the franchise, Atelier Rorona (PS3 original VS Plus/DX version) and Atelier Marie (PS1/PS2 VS New remake yet to come out), everything else is just ports OR version with all DLC included + some little bonus (most games that end with "DX" are basically this).

I don't recommend going in release order... at least not from the very beginning, there are some reasons for this, like how the original Marie is kinda vague and not the kind of game that will make you hooked in the franchise (remake might fix it though), then there's the PS2 era where Atelier essentially became a different franchise with a different kind of appeal before it returned to its roots with Atelier Rorona and the games that followed.
If you want to follow an order, then I recommend starting with Rorona and working your way up, then you can check out the remakes of the classics that are starting to come out like Marie Remake.

What is anon's favorite alchemist staff?
I've surprisingly never seen this topic come up in an Atelier thread
>>
>>2974101
Why does an alchemist need a staff? They aren't magicians.
>>
>>2974107
You can use them to stir the alchemist cauldrons old style and as a walking stick to get fast through any terrain. There are time limits after all.
Possibly more
>>
>>2974101
My favorite staff is guns akimbo.
>>
>>2974101
Shallotte's broomstick.
>>
>>2974101
I like Firis's staff because it's linked to her backstory (ore autism).

BTW, is it ever explained anywhere why the protagonists have access to powerful magical spells even before they learn any alchemy? E.g. Ryza is a sorceress right at the start of her game, even before she gets a cauldron.
>>
>>2974344
Haven't played Ryza, but aside from Dusk I don't think they really tried to explicitly separate alchemy and magic.
Marie already had mentions of some kind of natural magic reserves, and it's reflected in gameplay where using ANY item with any character took MP. Meaning everyone has some of that energy, with alchemists having more, and the reason for that is once again reflected in synthesis where MP is used. Although the special attacks did not use MP at all, so it may not make as much sense as I'm trying to make it seem.

Funnily enough, despite Atelier Sarasa's author claiming they'd never played Atelier before (hard to believe but hey), it also makes it very clear that its alchemy runs entirely on magic.
>>
>>2974107
>They aren't magicians
Pretty much every Atelier protag can use magic to some degree so they kinda are.

So? Your stats should come from gear, and enemies can still be higher level.

You also unlock a perk system upon reaching level 20, so leveling further isn't pointless.

I love firis so much
so so so so much
platonically of course
Why doesnt the game get as much love as the other games? It being a fully open world RPG is fucking awesome. Some people I have seen complain that the game has annoying synth level requirements... but I never really experienced that when I played it totally blind a few weels ago. The snow alchemist had some high level shit to make sure but she seems to be the last one you would naturally come across so my alch levels were already really high
The game has issues, sure, they all do. But I really really fucking loved firis. The game is great, certainly better than ryza 2 but that isnt saying much i guess
I hope they try doing another open world style progression.

Yeah, the whole game is like that, very few serious moments, it's a love it or hate it thing. Personally, I was mixed on it. The extra screechy voice acting didn't help it either.

>>2976878
I especially hated the Pamela scenes because they reduced her character to "BOO! a ghost girl". Her backstory was so somber in Sophie, it's just so disappointing.

Ryza 3 is coming closer and I feel 0 desire to play it. I thought with time I might get more interested, but after the absolute disaster of 1 dragging down 2 indirectly while 2 itself was also lackluster, I think this will be my first Atelier I'll skip. Having played all since Iris, it's sad, but what can I do. I already put up with the absolutely unneeded Ryza 2, and Sophie 2. At some point I gotta draw a line.

Thanks for reading the blog.
>>
>>2978190
It's the first 100% seamless open world Atelier game, worth playing just to see how that's gonna work out. You can climb that mountain, you can ride dolphins and shit, could be fun, even though I can't stand Ryza as a character. Still boggles the mind Gust can shit out an open world JRPG in just 1 year.

No way I'm actually spending money on it though, fuck KT's new regional pricing (i.e. the lack of there of). Good thing these games don't have Denuvo.
>>
>>2978190
I have zero hype for the story and cast, they just became really boring to me with no new protagonist nor change in the main cast since the first game, but I'm really interested in them returning to the open world formula. Having Sophie 2 in the meantime, Marie remake on the horizon and the promise that it's the final Ryza game helps a lot.
>>
Is this place the biggest hatejerk for Ryza? Nowhere else hates her games and cast as much as this.
>>
>>2978198
They moslty her Ryza because her games are unironically the most family friendly ones with less fanservice ever. They also love Arland trilogy for this very reason
>>
>>2978198
Most people discussing Ryza elsewhere have only played Ryza and thus don't have any frame of reference. I mean, she's literally the blandest Atelier MC so far, with no defining personality traits whatsoever, they made her as inoffensive as possible.

How serious is this time limit in Firis?
>>
>>2978216
Very lenient, you can get to the objective with months to spare. If you're playing DX you even have outfits that make time go slower when you explore or synthesize.
>>
>>2978216
One of the most lax in the series, I haven't heard of anyone actually failing it (everyone seems to get to Reisenberg with 100+ days left over). The only real time sink is building the ship to cross the lake (will take a couple months), once you're done with that part feel free to sit back and relax. The time limit is also removed completely in the second half of the game (and there's still a LOT of content left to do).

However, I highly recommend failing it on purpose as soon as you're able to, this will throw you into NG+ and it's important because it will give you NG+ bonuses, mainly having all costume effects active AT ONCE, thus removing the crappy mechanic of switching costumes depending on what you want to do (crafting, gathering, traveling etc).

Basically, once you're out of the tutorial area, set up the tent and sleep for roughly 270 days (in the chunks of 10). Place some bombs etc in the furniture slots to give you an edge in NG+, they're the only items that carry over.

Not hating on Ryza, just not giving a shit about her games. I don't need yet another fucking action rpg. I picked up Sophie 2 specifically because it was turnbased. And I certainly don't want a fucking open world rpg, and not just because the latest Pokemon games completely soured me on open worlds either. Ryza series seems to be offering up all the things I don't want out of jrpgs.

>>2978208
I don't think I'd call Ryza bland, but she's a lot more boring in the second game than the first. The summary calls her "ordinary, but wild and stubborn with a strong sense of justice" but that wild and stubborn side sort of disappeared in the second game. She just comes off as a good girl going around helping people in town while she was more of an endearing reckless brat in the first game.

Ryza games really went overboard with risk aversion. She's super nice to everyone, and everyone's super nice to her. Even when she gets mugged, she becomes friends with the bandits, and of course, it turns out they have a heard of gold, yadda yadda. Past Atelier games used to have moments like pic related.

Starting to play the Dusk trilogy with the green alchemist's game, but my autism is weighing on my mind. There's no real world time limit so I can take my time really slowly, right? And if I fail to get the good endings, what happens mechanics wise? NG+ with stuff I've unlocked, or do I have to start entirely from scratch?

>There's no real world time limit so I can take my time really slowly, right?
Yes, time only passes by in-game days on the world map when you travel from an area to another, and it tells you how much time will pass, when you synthesize something, and by chunks of a day when you're in an area and gather or battle enemies. You can eventually create items to reduce the time necessary for some of these activities, plus shortcuts on the world map and the ability to swap party members from the menu so time management gets even easier.

>And if I fail to get the good endings, what happens mechanics wise? NG+ with stuff I've unlocked, or do I have to start entirely from scratch?
Yeah, you can carry over money and equipment.

Yes, but I wouldn't worry as you have a lot of time to get the good ending. Your objective is to find a bunch of different flowers around the world and there are more than you need. They're all clearly marked as story quests and wherever you are you'll run into some. You just have to avoid wasting too much time by running back and forth without a goal.

What you might not be able to do is some of the character storylines or all the requisites for the true ending, but those are usually meant for NG+ once you already know most of what you have to do.

Heintz and Revy have purportedly joined my party in Firis but nothing's showing up in the party menu, what gives.
>>
>>2979501
Cute and canon!
>>
>>2979621
I was lost too. You find them inside the inn and taverns
>>
>>2979621
So firis is dogshit at explaining this but they are now "joinable" party members but not actually in your party. You must go to a town's inn or bar to then put them in your party. And yes check both locations as not everyone will be in the inn, and not everyone will be in the bar( I keep saying bar but I think tavern is what they actually call it)

Also you can only have so many party members. The game is obnoxiously limited in that sense, and for no real good reason wither since there is SO much room in your portable atelier
>>
>>2979631
To add to this
If a party member is not "equipped" into your party and just at the inn or tavern, they will not get xp
Splitting with them to hire another will just send them back to an inn or tavern.
Of anything I can critique about firis, it's this party system
It makes no sense and is a little obnoxious
Not bad enough to ruin the game, but bad enough to be. Amild inconvenience for no real reason
>>
>>2979631
>>2979632
What's worse, Liane can't be kicked out of the tent, and after the exam, Sophie & Plachta also become permanent party members, so you only get 3 slots for the rest (the tent can only hold 7 people, while the game has 12 party members total including Firis herself). So leveling them all up becomes a bit of a chore. Each of the party members has their own story culminating in a boss fight and an ending (some even have two).

But yeah, once someone joins your party, they don't actually join the party, they will be chilling at the nearest inn or tavern. You recruit them in like, say, Octopath Traveler.

They get item boosting passives and chucking damage items is the way to go at some point
>>

IIRC you can just exit and re-enter the inn/tavern to cycle through the available party members, I don't recall them being stuck to a specific place in each town.

It only gets weird in L&S because L&S flanderized many of the returning characters as the writers got lazy and went for the lowest common denominator jokes.
>>
>>2979060
Did you even pay attention to the story? Bos and Tao and Lent on occasions often shit on Ryza for being annoying and dragging everyone into adventures. The whole town looks down on her for being a troublemaker. Ryza herself is pretty snarky whenever her temper is pushed. Her only yesman is Klaudia who is super nice to everyone and ladylike, but she's often treated like "one of the guys".

This is definitely dialed back in Ryza 2, but it looks like the banter is back in Ryza 3 where Tao and Bos dunk on her for nearly getting raped by monsters.

Yeah. China has no feminist and never bans anime girl advertisment on Train station and Street. While Half of Japanese female population(24-36 millions) are feminists and 80-90% of 10-20s females of Japan are feminists. It shows that China censors less than Japan. China would have allowed anime ads. China has no news that anime girl ad on street or station is blown up by Complaint. Even FGO got swimsuit event in 2022 toned down compared to 2021, while Azur lane gets bikini returned. And BA gets lots of bikinis. I cannot understand why Japan still has Freedom house score of 96. It should be 9. And China should have higher freedom house score for having no feminists and LGBT which are the shackles of creativity. And Yoon have liberated Korea from feminism to have lots of bikinis in BA. While Kishida is male feminist slave of Feminist NPOs.
>>
>>2980833
That's why China censors less than Japan now. I thought Japan as AEUG, China as Neo Zeon, Korea as Titans. But Japan is Titans, China is AEUG, Korea is Karaba, West is Neo Zeon now.

China has no feminist. China never bans advertising anime girl in street or station. Unlike Japan, where anime girl advertisment on street or station always get blown up by feminist complaints. For half of Japanese female population are feminists and Kishida is slave of feminist NPOs who banned porn from Japan by the new law. They(PM Kishida's pronoun) banned bikini from anime in 2022 summer.
>>
>>2980897
I regret to side on Japan, for Having freedom house score of 96. But I have got betrayed for Japan turned into Feminist hell where half of female population(24-36 mill) are feminist while China has no feminists and LGBT.


Just like Char who believed that AEUG will fight for Spacenoid right but despaired at them fallen to Earthling's slave after Gryps war and Revolted against his Former allies. And Shinn Asuka who joined Alien troops and fought against Earthlings but got mind broken by Athrun and Destiny Plan of Gilbert, the Alien leader in Seed destiny.

I forget if that game in particular is like this, but in a bunch of the games you get a fixed amount of exp for the first craft of an item and a scaling amount based on the level any other time you craft it. So just making one of everything is usually the best way to get exp, otherwise you want stuff with a fairly high alchemy level requirement. Quality and such doesn't matter at all.

I want to give a little heads-up to anyone getting the Atelier Marie remake on PlayAsia for how it will most likely work in regards to DLC. I got the Asia English release of another Koei Tecmo game, Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse, which is the same deal as Marie with a Digital Deluxe Edition and a separate Digital Deluxe Upgrade you can purchase if you only have the base game. The game is in English, but it's not the same version as the one in the US/EU eShops, and tying to get the Upgrade from those doesn't work. I had to make a new account to access the Hong Kong eShop, get an HK eShop card on PlayAsia and buy the Digital Deluxe Upgrade from there. It does also work as DLC for the physical release despite the name and everything works properly. That's for Switch at least, I don't know if accessing the HK PlayStation Store is as simple.

I'd like to pick up some of the newer Atelier games. My favorite games so far were Totori, Meruru, Ayesha and Mana Khemia 1. E&L and Shallie bored me to tears; no sense of urgency, didn't like the characters all that much either. Should I go for Sophie's or Ryza's series first?

Aside Sophie 2 the Mysterious series is grindy and boring for too much. They heavily rely on yuribaiting
Ryza 1 is great starting point and enjoyable game. Do note QOL like monsters and chest on map are locked behind craftable items and Ryza 2 plot/story is DLC content made into a game. Gameplay and QOL are a huge upgrade from Ryza 1, same on Sophie 2 and now on Ryza 3

Time limits don't come back (I mean, it comes back in Firis but it's VERY lenient), so yeah don't expect that from the games again unless it's a remake like the upcoming Atelier Marie.
Maybe the next trilogy could incorporate some elements (a recent interview did say they were going to make the next games based on the reception of Ryza 3 and Marie Remake) but I wouldn't fantasize too much just yet.

That's like your opinion man. Blue Reflection 2 was just fine. Nights of Azure was shit, but that's hardly a Gust game anyways. The only Gust is the music. The team behind it was a different dev studio they just let work under the Gust brand for reasons beyond me. They did Deception games before.

To be honest, it's hard to know what's Gust nowadays anyways. They have different teams by now.

>Firis ends up with different men.
She only romances Heintz (DLC only) and their relationship was retconned by Ilmeria in Lydie and Suelle
>twins are sexually attracted to the prince and the male alchemist
Suelle only teases Mathis and Lydie would sell her body for anyone able to feed her if not by Suelle intervention. Its more like poverty escapism when you think about it
>Mysterious series is the most hetero to date.
You cant be serious

When can I expect a Ryza collection with all the DLC included? I'm not her personal paypig who has unlimited money to squeeze.
>>
>that jiggle for Lila
>>
Any cucksole exclusive DLC? I'm still angry about Ryza 2 over it.
>>
>>2986121
Mysterious got its Trilogy rerelease three years after the release of its third game, you can expect something similar.
>>
>>2986095
>next weekend
They announced Ryza 3 on fall Nintendo direct rather than waiting for their own announcement event

Not bad.

I'm just thankful they didn't rehire the studio that did Escha & Logy.

They changed sub-tittle for some reason.

From what?

It's the same as the first game's

Are they daring enough to adapt both two and three?

Ryza was a mistake

Surprised this didn't happen sooner. It's fun to have another Atelier anime (I mean, we did have Sarasa but that doesn't quite count).
I can already imagine /a/ trying to discuss this:
>Where's the fanservice? Don't tell me this is censored
>Where's muh action? Isn't this a JRPG? When they go save the world?
>Ryza and Klaudia shipping? Heh, just look at that big hunk Lent, like Ryza would have eyes for anyone else

So, do you guys think 12 episodes for each game is reasonable? They could end this in like 3 seasons.
>>
>>2986180
The shitposters are already using Bos to shitpost. Just like in here.
>>
>>2986185
Bos and Ryza have great chemistry desu, but nothing will ever happen because it's Atelier
>>
>>2986148
Studio Gokumi actually does good work.
The whole: "The studio is immediately indicative of how the anime will turn out" meme needs to end. It all depends on the staff at hand for that project and a fucking bullshit dice roll on circumstances for luck. Because sudden budget or production issues can cripple even a project with talented staff on board.

Why Gust, why?
>>
>>2986428
They're still wearing the same clothes from the first game.
>>
>>2986428
They're not playable, that's why
>>
>>2986439
They're still the exact same models, in fact.
>>
>>2986477
Wouldn't they look bad next to everyone else?
>>
>>2986445
>They're not playable
Wrong.
>>
>>2986483
They have been reusing models for years. They have been using the same dragon model since like ps3
>>
I'm still amazed they'll release 20+ costumes, but you fight only like 6 enemy types in each game. Priorities, man...
>>
>>2986126
Probably sailor suit. Just like yellow Sophie 1 outfit on Sophie 2
>>
>>2986180
Not big soup rice. Koei care about China so Ryza anime will be available in Bilibili...

Rorona is fucking DEAD

>Gust soon won't be able to blatantly abuse their lightning in a bottle anymore
>Sophie is still the fan favorite somehow, but they already gave her a filler game
>any remakes will be low effort and low budget, so for bigger games they probably won't go back further than Arland at this point
>an extra Arland game has already been made, and another one would have no impact
So, what's next? Mysterious 4? Ryza 1.5? A start of an actual new trilogy that goes all in on "wider audience" pandering and turns the series into generic JPRG for 5+ years until they decide to reboot it with another notSalburg?

Start of a new trilogy and don't believe anything else.
Since they're remaking Marie, I think they'll carry some oldschool cues to the new trilogy, maybe not in the form of time limit but in the form of vibes.
>>
>>2986783
I really wanted to see an atelier series where they dabble their own homeland and see how they tackle the cultural and socio-economic aspects of the game; for example, how they will integrate the alchemy with the Japanese culture.

If they are willing to give it a go, I would like to see it in the Sengoku period or the Bakumatsu era, when the western powers arrived in Japan.
>>
>>2986794
They're remaking Marie just because everyone's remaking everything nowadays. They're even adding a time-limitless mode to it, even though just adding some basic QoL (like exp share) to the original would already make it extremely easy.
>>
>>2986813
I think the free time mode is actually interesting because it's the first time ever that they explored this concept, it could mean getting time limits back in the main games without ruining it for the casuals (though I still think it's unlikely that it will show up).
>>
>>2986816
I don't think it's that interesting, they just know they'd get shit for removing it entirely. It would take more effort to make a modern Atelier that supports both without one or the other being an afterthought.
>>

>It would take more effort to make a modern Atelier that supports both without one or the other being an afterthought.
I imagine the No Time Limit playing like an Arland game but no matter how much you move/enter areas/sleep/synthesize time only passes when you allow it, like they give you the option to scroll to skip any X number of days while highlighting that certain events happen with exclamation points (maybe even forcing you to see main story events so you can't really skip like half year at once, or if it's a game with recurring requests like Rorona you can only skip until the time limit of that request is over).
So really, it would be a time limit game with the No Time Limit mode being an afterthought, I can't really imagine a system that accommodates both without some degree of weirdness to it (in this case, skipping time essentially becomes a "next event please" button).
