Famitsu has news on Gust's next PlayStation 3 game. It's called Atelier Totori: Alchemist of Arland 2 and yes, it's related to Atelier Rorona.
The brief in Famitsu explains Totori is the protagonist and the game takes place in Arland, five years after the events in Atelier Rorona. Atelier Totori is slated for June 24.
The Mako Reactor says: “Everything you need to know about getting into the Atelier franchise from best place to start to every new release covered on PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PC.”
Excellent article! This franchise is amazing I started around the Vita games and have been playing since. But for the newer releases I have lagged behind in purchasing due to my backlog. This great comprehensive article got my bearings straight thanks!
I always hear good stuff about the Atelier series, but with so many games I didn't feel like actually researching. So this article was a good read, and I may buy Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book in the near future.
Atelier Ryaza is looking like it’s going to be the breakout game for the franchise.
GameZone's Mandi Odoerfer writes: "When it comes to JRPGs, developers like Atlus and Monolith Soft have given us plenty of reasons to be excited about the future. However, that doesn't mean we should forget the past. Over the course of the last generation, there were a number of very good games that managed to fly under the radar."
Resonance of Fate. Amazing battle system that - in my opinion - is what FF13's battle system should've been. I also like how they included The Last Remnant. That game flopped hard. It was way too complex with not enough explanation, but if you get into the game and learn the systems, it's really, really cool.
Another one to add to the list: Radiant Historia.
How they skip to mention Xenoblade? although it got perfect reviews the sales was not so gr8 as it deserve so no brain lot's of JRPG fans skip this game, especially when it's so hard to find a copy or even if u find one u must be ready to pay quite a lot...
Anyway I'm sure lot's of ppl didn't play this game & that's really a shame, I suggest to all JRPG fans out there to play this game maybe a few won't like it but I guarantee that those who do r going to have an unforgettable experience & Xenoblade will become one of their all time favorite games of the previous generation.
Lost Odyssey
The Last Remnant
for me there is no x360 if these games not exclusives
Eternal Sonata was beautiful and fun, if only it wasn't for that ending..
The Atelier series of JRPG's is one of the most under appreciated, but is also responsible for some of the prettiest cosplays.
I love this series - so different, so much more relaxing than some other JRPG's. It has a great atmosphere all of it's own. And yeah, great cosplays too! ;)
Yeah, it's a shame not many people really play them - I've enjoyed all the ones on PS3 so far, and I like the fact that some of the underlying mechanics are changed a little in each version.
Give us the first one already. The hold-up on some of these titles is insane. All the Otaku need is English subtitles; leave the Japanese dub.
Looking forward to Atelier Rorona. Hopefully we'll get a release date soon, and they won't take as long bringing over this new title as well.
