Which protagonist would you want to be a recruitable party member for?
I like Esty.
Why do they still cost so much...
>an actual atelier thread on /v/.....don't go....
>Totori is the only MC with a good designThe franchise peaked too early.
I wish the alchemy in these games was present in some other games. Not saying these games are bad, just the opposite really. I want more.
Astrid
>>683658156>Do you want to see a Rorona approaching her 30s?
Anons, should I just do it? I don't see them getting cheaper any time soon...
>>683658293>forgot to post pic
>>683658325Just buy one trilogy at a time. Don't buy them all and get burnt out halfway through.
>>683658424I just want to give Gust money to translate the Surge DX games...
>>683659620I only give these to Mimi.
>>683657673>Join Rorona's party>go with her to the Catacombs>take home Pamela's teddy bear myself>now i have a big tittied ghost wifethere's no way this plan can fail!
>Play Atelier Rorona last year as my first game of the franchise>Absolutely fantastic game, played it 3 tiimes, got all the endings, also did Overtime(didnt beat those two super bosses though, fuck those random OP attributes)>Play Atelier Totori>First months are incredibly limited, then out of nowhere the world opens and it's the exact opposite, two much freedom>in Rorona you would at best spend two weeks coming and going from Gathering areas, im expected to spend a month and a half traveling to Arland semi regularly, each time.>Can only get equipment in Arland>Fighting enemies and gathering ingredients spends time>Searching ingredients in the menus is jankier than Rorona's search for some reason>Cant see the probability of success for alchemy>No Decorations apparentlyDid I accidentally start with the best game in the franchise and it's all going down after that one, I barely have the will for continuing after the game suddenly crashed on me on my second session, which never happened with Rorona.
>>683657715HAHA THIS NIGGA LIKES STD
Rorona, so I can hook up with Lio-chan.
>>683657673Basic bitch answer but Ryza. I find her enthusiastic genki energy deeply infectious and think she'd be really fun to go on adventures with. Plus, given that all three games in her trilogy end up with her back to being all alone as the world moves on without her I just think that she could use a steadfast friend that is more than happy to stay stuck in on some insane globetrotting adventure.
>>683660728Also what gives with all these negative attributes to items, along with these dozens of attributes like Stinky, or Sweet, which all do the exact same thing but dont exactly explain what they do?
>>683658001I had high hopes for Potionomics, but it ended up being a bit of a letdown. Not awful, mind you, just not as polished or robust as I'd hoped. Still a fun and charming experience. If the devs ever make a sequel I'd like for them to lean more into both the Recettear and Atelier influences.
>>683660728The Arlands have a weird relationship with polish versus continuity. The Rorona you played is excellent, but it's not the original. Totori is an improvement on the original and Meruru is even better, but after those came out Rorona got a full remake benefiting from the experience of those games for the Plus rerelease. The other two are just touched up remasters. So continuity wise it's>Rorona > Totori > Merurubut in terms of polish it's>Totori > Meruru > Rorona (remake)
>>683660728>>in Rorona you would at best spend two weeks coming and going from Gathering areas, im expected to spend a month and a half traveling to Arland semi regularly, each time.honestly this is one of my favorite parts of totori, the inconvenience of travel makes you really enjoy the moments when you get the items that reduce travel time spent, and dear god when you get the atelier warp item it's just sublime.
>>683660728I shared your dislike of Totori. Meruru was my favorite Arland game. I get why people love Totori though, it's just too open for me.
>>683661675>Totori is just too openit's always the ones you'd least expect who turn out like that.
Ryza!!!!!my wife.......
>>683658293>>683658325I did it. Please Gust translate Ciel nosurge now
>>683661843Fuck you, Anon. I have sex with your gorgeous wife.
Judie remake when?
>>683662219Did the Marie remake sell particularly well?
>>683662368I would've bought it, but it was too expensive.
>>683657673Totori, for sexual reasons.
>>683662368I would have happily bought the version with the original sprites, but that's locked behind the deluxe edition and i'm not interested in buying the remake with the chibi models.
>>683662851we know Mimi. we all remember when you joined her party with your ulterior motives
>>683658156You know Astrid dated and banged Sterk right?
>>683663093why do you think she's so obsessed with 14 year olds, she remembers shota sterk fondly.
>>683663138Fair enough.
>>683662809
>>683662851Telling Totori she can have all the Chim ingredients she wants for free if she cums to me for them.
>>683663303What does the Y axis represent?
>>683663303thanks doc
>>683663584If totori sends Mimi to me she can have double the chim ingredients.
>>683657673Meruru, I want to serve the princess
>>683663948Sorry sterk, they abolished the monarchy, she's not a princess anymore.
>>683660305Rorona also has the benefit of actually being paid to accompany her.
>>683662809>Care more about combat>DUSKCombat was fucking shit in Dusk, that's literally what made me drop it.
>>683664010SHE'S STILL A PRINCESS TO ME DAMN IT
>>683659620>a popular request among menWhat did they mean by this?
>>683664182It's less sweet than the average pastry so men prefer it to "girly" treats.
>>683664012yeah, being Rorona's party member is a really sweet gig, she pays you, and she'll make you crazy strong equipment eventually too.
>>683662809>>683663303I haven't seen this shit in years. I miss ValkyrieAurora, bros.
>>683664362She at least unprivated her videos.
>>683664012Meanwhile, the perk of joining Totori is being tentacle raped.
Why did Mana Khemia die but Atelier lived?
>>683665048Cuter girls.
>>683665048not enough yuri
Mimi would definitely be that universely loved princely girl of the school that turns all the girls gay and gets referred to as -sama.
>>683664182cream pie can also refer to the sexual act of cumming inside of a womansurprisingly there actually was a dirty joke here in the japanese version, though it's a bit different
>>683667036Nah, shes quite literally too short. She'd be more of a cute mascot, if not for Totori herself.Shes the same height at 27!!!! as she was at 14I M A G I N E
>>683657673Ayesha desu
>>683667036nah, she's too clumsy to pull that off, people would think she's cute rather than cool because she'd always end up messing up and ruining it any time she tries to act cool.
>>683668314Pretty much all the ateliers are cursed to not grow after the start of their game, Rorona is the only one i'm aware of who actually seems to get taller.
>>683657784because kt has no fucking clue what price elasticity is
>>683660728>Did I accidentally start with the best game in the franchise and it's all going down after that oneUnironically yes, that is the case.
>>683668314Cute lesbians who regularly implement futa and youth potions in their sex sessions.
>>683657673Totori then I'd corner her and rape her in a forest somewhere and impregnate her so she has a living reminder of her victimization
>>683668764She can also get fatter and is the only one that does.
>>683673083>gacha after the architect audiencewell that's a first.
>>683662809why is my wife Elmerulia's game never in these kind of images?
>>683674759Fuck off, Stia. You stole what was rightfully Eva's. Also I had to google you because I forgot what your name was.
>>683672171I love yuri so much!
>>683657784No game of this series goes over 50% EVER. Try your luck with keysites.
Why didn't the half-naked brown girl become popular?
>>683678723I wish we had at some point a melee alchemist like her i mean ok you study, you are big in crafting but sometimes you just want to swing a big weapon on someone's head to vent frustration.
How are the steam portings? I have the originals on ps3 but i have no idea where is my console actually and i had an itch to replay them. I mean in terms of content, general playability and censorship.
>>683679983No censorship (or translation revisions unfortunately; rip Esty).Identical content to the Plus versions I'm pretty sure.And the same amount of replayability as the originals I guess? They're not too different aside from Rorona if you've never played Plus.
>>683674759that image is from vitagen (playstation vita general) and vitagen died a decade ago
>>683680425What was the issue with esty? I mean i know the joke but didnt she went lost in tranlastion even in the originals?
>series is kill thanks to mobile gachashit
>>683660728>I find the remake that came out 8 years later better than the second game in the modern seriesOkay?
>>683665048>why did the spinoff die but the series liveIt's a mystery
>>683681694No not really, they tried to pander to the normie coomers with ryza, did a quick buck but it was soulless and lazy, so normies forgot it about in a week and fans of the series never cared about the dumbed down gameplay. There is a reason you keep seeing old ateliers images and talking but you never see anything about ryza 3 or what is the plot.
>>683678723
>>683681838And..? None of that translates into GUST making another good Atelier game ever again.
>>683682024They pandered to normie and guess what what's trending for normies now? Gachas. They, again, wanted a quick buck.
>>683658156
>>683659374Melvia was right. Nobody would find this sexy.
>>683672171why are girls so gay?
>>683682093And that's what they will do from now on hence the series is dead.
>>683681694it started with ryza. gachashit is just their last attempt at making quick buck
>>683682306They'll probably milk some remakes, wanst one of the first ateliers remastered some time ago? Forgot to check it.
>>683673083>no no rorona, these pies are all for you!>go on, enjoy them! here, I baked you one as well!
>>683682254All girls are gay till ovaries kick in.
>>683682473Atelier Marie. It was cheaply made shit and didn't even get a physical release, at least not where I live. It's obvious that anything that's close to classic Atelier is done quickly as an obligation so they can focus on their gacha.
>>68365815614 is already starting to be too late.
>>683661119Too many queer and tran shit.
>>683661365I read Totori and Meruru doesn't have filter option when sifting through inventory. Is this true?
>>683657673>cameltoeThis better be official art.
>>683683106True for Totori. All you can do is sort. Meruru has filters.
>create girls that are not anoxeric>sells bajillions
>>683683158>>This better be official art.Your filename reps...
>>683671412
>Mimi is always with Totori>Cory got sent to the shadow realm so Rorona would always be with Sterk
>>683665048I prefer the PS2 Ateliers I can't bother going to the newer ones. Guess I just like the sprite based ones.Did they put any characters from the Iris Trilogy in the gacha game?
I played the Arland and Ryza games and liked them. Sophie didn't really click for me. Should I try it again or just try Dusk?
>>683682803>cheaply made shitIs really that bad? I honestly know nothing about the original game.
Thoughts on this relationship?
>>683685659You should definitely try Dusk
>>683687087Cute and canon
I tried the Ayesha one and got my ass absolutely handed to me in the first combat area lol
>>683657673I want to have romantic sex with Sophie and there's one artist who draws a lot of Sophie impregnation porn and they have my undying respect
>>683687351Well I'm sold.
>>683687087Desn't she had way bigger boobs than that? Or it's just my wishful thinking.
I tried these games but I'm too small brain for them.I think Ayesha is the cutest with Sophie a close second
>>683689196Guessing you haven't played Firis. Escha and Logy show up in that game as minor side characters. Escha is a loli and Logy is a late teen and they promise to fuck when Escha grows up a little more.
>>6836787230 hips
>>683689494Yeah, that's the case.
>>683689196She's big and here's my proof
Cute alchemy family.
>>683681838honestly i wouldn't even mind Ryza's gameplay if it weren't for the fact that they got so blatant with their greed by making the trilogy the "Ryza" trilogy instead of the secret trilogy. My favorite thing about Atelier games is watching the rookie alchemist from the first game grow into this renowned grandmaster alchemist who even has their own students, So Ryza being the MC 3 games in a row really offended me as a fan of the series. just makes her seem like a failure as an alchemist that she couldn't pass the torch onto a new MC.
I am probably alone in this, but it's Annie for me and always will be. Love this stupid boy (female).
>>683685659Mysterious is the worst trilogy in the series.
>>683687087Logy's a bro, so i'm happy he found her again even despite the multiverse fuckery trying to separate them. Never could bother to finish Firis (really didn't like that one), does loli Escha have her mama Clone still? because an Escha without her robo-mom is just wrong, they're so cute together.
>>683691458>>683693951why does the younger daughter look like Rorona and Totori's child? is there something Totori isn't telling Mimi?
>>683694748>does loli Escha have her mama Clone still?No
>>683657673Ryza of course. Totori would be a close second. Ideally I get both.
>>683694347>Ryza is a failure as an alchemistshe forgets how to make basically anything in 2 so even if it was not intended, they made her into an alchemist loser
>>683694347>>683696238Even if they wanted to keep Ryza around for obvious reasons, they could've had either Klaudia learn it out of respect for Ryza, or have Tao learn it to teach at university. There's other options too like a flashback Lila and Empel game. That being said, I still liked the Ryza/Secret trilogy.
>>683702017Perflat.
