To elaborate, it's an eroge made by the devs of Hizashi no Naka no Real, supposedly with similar gameplay just on a larger scale and with INO artwork. It's in "development" since 2008. The last entry in the dev blog was on January 2019 explaining that the game will come but with heavily reduced content. It's nothing.

>But I thought it was a a very satisfying conclusion to what the previous games were building up to.

only in the world sense. the "wills" concept being created and then retconned into all the other ar tonelico stuff was retarded.

It's difficult to call a tower complete when critical control components are not yet installed to make it run correctly.

The art is delicious, and the music is acceptable.
The game world is a hollow shell, and the plot has no substance.
The slice of life and yuri interactions between the girls are enjoyable, and the main girl is quite gay.
The combat mechanics are workable and has room to include some depth with various strategies, but shit balance means there is no challenge and no need to bother aside from viewing the animations of the different abilities. There is a lot of promise, but it is just thrown away, which is quite a shame.
There is also no need to grind, at all. The game shits crafting crap all over you, so you can really get by with avoiding combat as much as possible. Fans of running in circles to grind won't be happy, but overall this part isn't a bad thing.

Also the model/event viewer is severely censored in the western release, and not all of the CGs are in 1080p. The other issues are somewhat minor, but there are a fair number of them. As with all of the gust/steam releases, make sure to grab the player modded fixes so the game runs decently.

Play through a few hours from the piratebay version, and then decide whether or not you want to support the game. Most of the shit the game gets is due to the fucking $60 price tag, and the current iteration is worth $19.99 tops.

Though, at least it is a game that came out.

if you get the ps3, you might as well play through qoga as well.
