Tracker is dead, but any client with Mainline DHT should find seeds eventually.

Also, try searching the archive for "Ar Tonelico For Lazy People". That should pull up the old threads with the old links.

Outside of the dive system (which had finally found a good balance between depth and character development), it felt a lot like a train wreck.

1) Battles. It was like they attempted to make their own battle engine. It was clunky, slow, and boring.
2) Purge. there was NO reason for that. Pointless fanservice detracts from a game not based on fanservice (re: the first two games in the series).
3) The 145° shift in tone. AT1 & 2 were serious games with silly elements thrown in on the side (like most jRPGs). For example, the 'installer ports' weren't really a major thing in AT2, and the whole dive system was basically optional in both of the first games. That completely reversed in AT3, focusing strongly on how 'He who masters the art of stripping controls the flow of battle'.

Another example, resolving with a civil war and trying to unify the people so they could revitalize their failing world where major points of AT2. AT1 primarily focused on keeping the tower from falling apart . AT3? Turning enemies into cakes, installing a new port in each of the girls, and how good you were at disrobing your Reyvateil. Oh, and some plot rushed at the end of the story to tie things together I guess.

I can understand games that have the party 'stumble into the plot' instead of knowing it from the start (which is a fine mechanic), but that's not what AT3 did. It dicked around for most of the game and slapped some stuff together that looked like a plot so as to give some closure, kinda.

This thread STARTED as a heroine war....

So no.

And luca's a total manipulative bitch. She just plays the cute card to get out of it. (re: skycat)
Although, I did like how Chloe destroyed her later in the cosmosphere; it was satisfying to see her finally get some of what she deserved.
