Never played a game in the series, but the improvements to the graphics and story have gotten me interested. I'll pick it up after I finish Dragon Quest XI S
This was a great review. I'm thinking about buying atelier ryza for the nintendo switch since I really love the atelier games and I played the other atelier games on the ps2. This one looks really great and relaxing too.
I'm looking forward to getting my copy of the game. All thought I realy like both RPGs & crafting.. and have been watching the series for years, I have for some reason never played any of the Atelier games before, so I'm looking forward to playing my first one ever :)
This game is SO relaxing it almost put me to sleep whenever I try to play. It's my first Atelier game and I think it's pretty good. I'll know for sure if (and when) I could play for more than an hour straight without fall asleep 👍🏻 PS: I say it in a good way. Music is both relaxing and marvelous.
Based on your review, this may be the best trilogy/series Atelier has had. I've wanted them to have a more serious story since Dusk. In which I thought Dusk was going to do precisely what Ryza is doing. I might have to snag this one up sooner but my budget needs discipline!
@Final Fantasy well I’d say it’s not a total lose if you got them physically. The dusk DX trilogy collection coming out next year most likely will just be digital only. Just remember that this is kinda typical of Koei tecmo. They tend to re-release titles in “complete” or expanded form of its original release titles. Examples like this is the attack on Titan 2 game which ended up getting a “final” edition that includes more content off of the base version.
Never played an Atelier game but after hearing they've made the story a little more serious I'll have to check this out once I finish with Digimon and Ni No Kuni
This will be my first time playing a game in the atelier series but I'll be honest I'm going to wait for a sale before I buy it just in case I end up not liking it. Itll be an easier pill to swallow if I paid less.
I’ve inquired about it. If I don’t receive a response from the devs within the next couple days I do plan on grabbing it to review so I definitely plan on it.
So many games id actually like if they didn't have this crappy turn based hit system aka final fantasy! Really bugs me, I've tried so many times and I just hate it, what's wrong with encountering an enemy and fighting them instead of this crappy one hit takes you into this stupid trade off I take a go you take a go strategy. Great review as always tho!👍
more people like turn based combat in RPGs than real time combat that's why they keep using this "crappy" turn based system as you say. Personally i like it better because you have time to think and in a grindy game i prefer not having to mash buttons for 3hrs in a row to level up
Because people like me prefer the combat which you called "crappy". If you like hack n slash, there's already Astral Chain or Bayonetta or Devil May Cry or God of War. JRPGs are better with turn based combat
