Is this series worth playing if I don't masturbate to anime women?
>>3848950Yes, but not that game
Yes, but only if you can appreciate cute anime girls without jacking off.Also the item crafting autism is always really solid.
Which Aterlier should I start with?
>>3851905The one with the girl you find cutest or Atelier Ryza 1.
>>3851912Thanks..Ayesha seems to be more visually bearable for me for some odd reason. the rest of the girls look overdone or boring.
>>3848956Unironically which ones
>>3852078All of them except that one. Ryza series is the low end other than Yumia, and even it's passable, the other 11 are all pretty good at least.
>>3848950I don't give a rat's ass about slice of life cutesy moeshit, but the alchemy autism speaks to me. It's fun enough to minmax items that I just power through the boring writing. Some things eventually grow on you, some things you eventually grow really tired of.Not Yumia though, that one has nothing to offer for spreadsheet afficionados.
Story and plot are generic. If you want a decent alchemy system, though halted at times by story progression, then Atelier Yumia is right up your alley. Currently playing it myself after playing Atelier Ryza 1-3. It's not perfect, just like the others, but it's still got my completionist side going on full blast.
>>3852085Really? Found trails, tales and atelier in one week. Set for the next 7 years, lol. When I'm finished, I might be lucky and I can find 2 new decent crpgs by 2032.
>>3852078Arland is a good starting point for modern Atelier and has some good spreadsheet autism. Ayesha is also fun.Gonna stand up for the older games too. Marie is short and quick, the worst part is the minigames that thankfully stop after that game. Elie is a lot of fun but doesn't hold your hand at all - playing Elie blind is probably the most trial and error experiance you can have in a translated Atelier. The Iris trilogy was Gust's attempt to make more normal RPGs - they have male mains and no timers, if you're into that sort of thing.
>>3852122>ArlandRorona?
>>3851912Why do these lists always start with the PS3 games? The Salburg, Gramnad, Iris and Mana Khemia series exist. Also spinoffs.
>>3852131Because it's a list of the "modern" games, which started on the PS3. Also, it's the ones that are still easily accessable from official channels, barring the remake of Marie and the city builder spinoff no one cares about, all the pre-Rorona games are emulate-or-nothing, and that's if you speak Japanese for a lot of them.
>>3852078Marie, Elie, LillieJudie, ViorateRorona, Totori, Meruru ... Lulua (after L&S)Ayesha, Escha&Logy, ShallieSophie, Firis, Lydie&SuelleMarie (original) is a respectable starting point if have severe autism (not because it's difficult - it isn't), otherwise go with Rorona or Ayesha. Sophie if you're a casual. Lillie/Judie/Vio are moon only, so you'll probably be skipping those.
>>3852130Rorona, yeahBe warned that the original release looks kind of bad nowadays, though I know someone that prefers it (that guy is a total weirdo). But you're unlikely to end up with it unless you're emulating.
>>3852131Most people wouldn't bother with them until after they get a taste of the newer stuff.
I wish the DX version of totori at least lighten the strict time limits.The game feels more annoying than what i deal as a wagie.
>>3853522I really liked Totori as a concept but every time I feel like I should replay it I remember the best way to make cole is to do the spring cup shit which is annoying as fuck.
>>3852293mind you, lilie is a prequel and untranslated.
>>3848950Where the FUCK is this goddamn material in resleriana rw? I can't further develop the town because the items needed need this material and it is nowhere to be found
Here is venus vacation Resna's kit.

Removes negative effects from target and gives permanent burst damage +25% (stacks to 100%). All strike allies get phys atk. +40%, skill damage +40%, and break damage +40% for 2 turns.>burstafter attacking, full party 15% heal and permanent burst damage +50% to the ally with the highest phys atk. prior to the move being used (stacks to 150%).

Probably worth it for strike tournament and such. Nice synthesis gift too.
>>3855638its in one of the dimensional dungeons or whatever they were called, gotta proceed with the main story if you havent unlocked it yet
>>3852078Depends on what you like. Also, some have timers.
>>3855871yeah it was main story locked. also, this shit should let me morph if i know the material needed
When will next Atelier game be uncovered? Next nintendo direct?
>>3857129Koei Tecmo's fiscal year ends March 31st so I imagine if they have another smaller Atelier like a remake or a Rorona otome game, then they'll announce it in a Direct in the first 3 months of 2026. If not, they'll announce big new content (or EoS) for the JP gacha in March and reveal the big new console game in the summer or even wait all the way until just before next Tokyo Game Show.
>>3857221>KT just launched KT store to hoop around google play and apple's extra fees>gacha might die next yearIt would be hilarious.I'll still use steam for payment cause i can't read moon and i only played resleri JP thanks to the redditor making a stuff to translate the game.
