What happened to the thread anyways? It got spammed by some shitposters and then the posts got deleted and the thread vanished.

Also, when can I expect to hear some voice acting again in AT2? I used to play the undub a year ago but I'm trying the dub this time and the lack of voices is unnerving. I played through the whole phase 2 so far without a single spoken word except for the battles. Picked up Jakuri now, hope that there actually will be some voices in cutscenes again soon.

>>7827144

I guess the mod accidentally killed the thread while deleting the shitposts?

Yeah, I wonder what the hell happened to last thread. Oh well.

Baru!

>>7827167
do a barrel roll !11one ROFLMAO xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Is there any other board where we can post AT without trolls?

>>7827172
Yeah...because it's not /jp/ related.

Reported.

>>7827181
Usually here, but it seems there's some exceptionally butthurt guy lurking about right now.

My suggestion is to ignore it, and let the janitor deal with it when they're around.

>>7827181
First time I've seen one completely ruined by these morons. I suggest deleting the thread and remaking it some other time when this asshole leaves.

>>7827187
Oh wow, it's that discussion again.
Hello and welcome to /jp/, newfriend. Hope you enjoy the board.

>>7827181

We've maintained an AT/GUST thread here for a long time with very little troll fuckery. This is actually the first time in a while we've had someone come in and shit up the thread like this.

>>7827213
he's not even posting anymore, just move on with it and do your usual discussion, even if he starts up again you can just ignore it.

I've actually started playing AT/Gust games because of these threads and this was over a year ago.

I was quite interesting with that other anon's question about where does the song magic/hymmnos musics come from. I mean, I get the instruments, but the multiple voices?

>>7827187
Didn't have chance to post this in a while, thank you.

>>7827233
Well just remember that Reyvateils can actually sing without "physically" singing. How else could Frelia keep the song magic going for hundreds of years to keep up Metafalls?

what happened to the other thread?
oh and inb4 Luca is a slut

Aaaand we're back on track!
I really wish there were more GUST releases on the PSP. My PSP has been getting a lot of love since the semester started (and I go to my overnight job pretty much right after my one class so it sees a lot of playtime there as well). While this means FFIV Complete Collection has gotten a lot of playtime, I haven't been able to find time to finish my playthrough of Rorona, which sucks.
I might do a little tomorrow with the American holiday coming up, but I don't even know how far I'll get.

>>7827382
Honestly, I wish them to be all on Vita, Imagine Arland Atelier graphics on Vita, or Ar Tonelico ports.

>>7827389
Honestly, I think the Vita's visual power is getting a little overhyped.

From what we've see, the games don't look all that good- god knows if they could be able to handle Meruru-tier graphics.

>>7827247
Actually I think she WAS singing that song for hundreds of years, just like Misha was singing Chronicle Key at all times.
>>7827233
Heh, yeah, I also understand the instruments since those are usually attached to their heads ( and in Shurelia and Frelia's cases, to their suit ). But I don't understand where the background choir effect comes from

>>7827396
Actually, they can. Not sure what kind of games are you looking at, check Gravity Daze.

>>7827297
Luca is a whore and a slut.

>>7827197
Just ignore them. Somebody who is ignored can't ruin a thread unless they post two hundred something times.

>>7827415
Gravity Daze looks pretty weak visually, honestly. I don't know, perhaps it's the resolution, but most Vita games I've seen lack the detail and visual strengths of a PS3 game.

They look like in a middleground between the PS2 and current-gen, instead.

>>7827396
Whoa, have you seen Uncharted Golden Abyss?

>>7827443
Yeah, I have. In fact, it's exactly that game the one I had in my mind while thinking about the Vita, alongside that Resistance game.

I don't know, I mean- it looks great for a handheld, yet not exactly all that amazing.

>>7827440
I think it's also the image quality effect. I mean, jpg screenshots of PSP games look like shit, while the actual thing is quite better.
Just from the specs, the Vita should be able to handle early PS3 graphics.

>>7827449
It looks near PS3, not that amazing judging from the specs, but taking into consideration that these are launch games, it's pretty goddamn amazing.

>>7827117
Goddamnit OP don't go posting Lady Chroche like that, I'm trying to wait patiently for ToX here, and posting my mistress sharing the same VA as Milia isn't helping...

>>7827458
Yeah, perhaps it is.

>>7827462
It looks like between PS2 and PS3, at least to me.

>>7827443
That doesn't count, Naughty Dog's devs are know to sell their firstborns' souls to the devil to aquire godly coding skills.
Think about what the average can do with Vita.

>>7827479
That Uncharted game isn't developed by Naughty Dog, though.

>>7827481
Really ?
Then my point is moot I guess.

Vita vs. PS3 seems similar to PSP vs. PS2 in that while on paper the portable can't put out graphics on the level of what the console can do, it's capable of putting out graphics that look close enough to as good as the console version when shrunk down to the portable's screen size. You don't need texture quality/polycount on the level of a console designed to output to a 20-50"+ screen when you're working with a 5" screen.

We'll see how the Vita actually is when it comes out, I'm actually not that interested in the graphics but how close they're working with 3rd party developers.

>>7827516
From what I have read on game news sites sony has
>listened to 3rd parties about what should be included in the Vita
>made the dev kits dirt cheap compared to most other consoles on the market
>given free dev kits to indie devs
I expect great things from the Vita

/jp/ is non-jap video games and console related, like Uncharted, rite?

Reported.

>>7827537
Well. GUST and Vanillaware are developing for Vita, that's all I need to know

Do not attempt to masticate your Vita

I'll just leave this here...

>>7829081
Thanks for pointing out the obvious.

Y'know, I actually like dubbed Totori more...

>>7827419
I'm sorry, but has Luca even engaged in sexual intercourse? Oh, that’s right. She hasn't even made contact with a man outside of dive therapy. In fact, it’s only therapy involving fields for soothing. Does not having a cliche tsundere personality make you a slut? Is that what you’re saying? Because if you’re saying that I can assure you that you’re wrong. Why would you make this topic when the game is already finished and we know for certain she is pure? Luca is a holy maiden now and she was been the purest maiden in Metafalss? Luca has to go up against one of the sluttiest reyvateils in Ar Ciel who just happened to have a lead because she was praying on Croix's innocence. But you know what? Cloche is still a whore. Luca is the best heroine in all three games, she has the best songs. Luca has already won Croix over, she would have done it sooner if it wasn't for her tragedy with her sister throwing her for a mental loop. Maybe you should shut the fuck up before you make retarded topics like this. You know why? Because you're going to be embarrassed when Luca is proven a better waifu than any other in AT2. Cloche tries to latch on to anyone who would have shown her a different and free life. Are you retarded? Are you autistic? You are a fucking idiot and you should never make a topic on this board again and I’m fucking serious. I almost have a feeling you’re the only guy making all these anti-Luca topics because you’re a faggot hater who doesn’t like a heroine because they’re canonically pure. Fuck you, be good at something in YOUR life and then maybe try to troll these fucking idiots on the board, like I give a fuck. It’s so easy to spot out your threads now, you’re a retard. Always doing stupid shit like this. Why don’t you try to be a good poster? Just for once? For once in your fucking life try not to make a topic like this. That’s just you, you’re always right at getting it wrong. Fuck you. You are nothing.

>>7829080
The dub isn't too bad. The voice directing fits with the actual dialogue which is more than can be said for the usual standard.

God dammit, now I'm going to suffer even more for the next month waiting to get my hands on it...

NISA.jpg

>>7829080
Ceci certainly has some bounce in her step there.

Started AT2 the other day. Just hit the split between Cloche and Luca, so far finding the mechanics better then the first game's. Kinda miss upgrading my equipment with crystals though. The battle system is kinda cool even though I can't really nail those perfects for the life of me. Croix is a much better MC then Lyner, IMO.

>>7829405
This confused the hell out of me.
Guess now I know.

>>7829437
>Croix is a much better MC then Lyner, IMO.
No doubt.
Lyner is incredibly dense, at times criminally so.
Its like they played FSN and thought "hmm I wonder how far we can take this" and made all the exaggerated shirou is dense jokes a reality

>>7829080

that Peter is a fag

>>7829632
He doesn't change much in Meruru. Still as creepy as ever.

I just beat AT1 not too long ago. Such a great game, makes me really sad I didn't know about these games when I was younger.
Is there anything special for getting all of the conversation pieces, rather than more conversation? They're hard to get, especially for Shurelia.

Also, after beating the game, I proceeded to fap to an image of Shurelia in her school swimsuit costume. Am I a bad person?

>>7827117

Cloche-sama~~~

We need more art in these threads. I've got bugger all images.

>>7829289
Hmmmm, with some retrospection after digging up (a very shitty quality Chinese subbed) the Japanese first 8 or so minutes, there are some slight differences with how the lines are delivered... but that's going into nit-picking territory.

Though to be honest I don't quite like the english dub's tone when Totori answers Ceci's question on who normally cleans up the mess after the explosive mishaps. The JPN tone is more of a matter-of-fact automatic response which Ceci then picks up on to tease Totori. The English dub's tone makes it sound like it was Totori's intention.

Best part of Phase 2 right here.

>>7830233
I personally thought the big fat cat fight at the end of the 3rd Infelsphere was the highlight of the phase... that and exec_sphilia

Ar Portal is closing, but where's my AT1 and 3 figs, GUST?

Mir hasn't even gotten a fig yet, while Luca and Cloche do.

Will this forever be a joke to you GUST? Relegated to Cynthia-tier?

>>7830400

>Ar Portal is closing

Obligatory.

>>7830400
Not closing. Closed. No more updates. Done. It's over. Everyone has said their good byes and thanks for the 4-5 years of memories ;_; And why does my chest hurt so much when I see Akane's crying portrait? Moreso than any other one...

>>7830438
Jesus, when you put it that way I kinda feel depressed.
Thanks for the amazing ride, GUST, Akira Tsuchiya, Ken Nakagawa, Daisuke Achiwa, Akiko Shikata,Haruka Shimotsuki, Takashige Inagaki, Haruka Shimotsuki, Noriko Mitose and Yuuko Ishibashi and everyone else I forgot to mention.

>>7830452
It's also depressing that we'll probably never ever hear a JPN voiced Harve-Vista personality pack...

I actually wonder how well the Ar tonelico series sold over in Japan especially seeing how it's not their main franchise. I know the Arland Atelier series sold at least in the 400k range all up counting all three titles...

>>7830400
On a related note, I saw Luca on sale for about $35 nearby.

She'll be mine if I can hold out til the weekend.

>>7830556
She's probably used.

>>7829405
I remember hearing about one guy who worked at nisa complaining that he was probably the only guy keeping their translation team in line and quit out of frustration...

...and the next game they did after he quit was AT2

does the chick (yowza! haaawt...)

...yeah, anyway the chick in the OP pic, does she blow shit up?

>>7830604
Yes. With space lasers.

No, I am not making this up.

>>7830633
Cloche has my favourite design of AT heroines.

>>7830400
Man I wish I could get my hands on those Luca and Cloche figurines for a reasonable price that isn't my left nut
PS, this is where I troll you guys with a Jacqli figurine

>>7830652
That figure looks bad.
Like really bad.

I MIGHT have found a local store that still has a copy of atelier Rorona for 50$, good deal yes or no?

>>7830662
Don't ask. Buy.

This sort of makes me want to buy a PS3 but im not sure how easy it is to pirate stuff nowadays.
inb4 buyfags

>>7830690
I bought a ps3 a few weeks ago. If you want to pirate games it's a waste of money unless you are 100% that the ps3 you're buying has firmware version 3.5 or lower. the newest versions have not been cracked and will not be for several months.

>>7830690
Buyfag reporting in.

I have a PS3!

>>7827233
The Tower creates all the backing material based on the singer's mental state/etc. and makes it play back in the vicinity of the singer. The RT may or may not physically sing during her song, but I would imagine most who can do.

>>7830438
Yeah, I remember the shock of reading that announcement, and realizing that all the potential future stuff they had been kind-of hinting at probably wouldn't come to pass. And probably no FCS3. Feels bad man.

>>7830662

Rorona's not that hard to find is it? I got a copy off ebay for like $27. $50 seems way too high.

>>7830730
I don't really like buying things online unless it's something intangible. packages can get lost, stolen or I could get scammed. it also might end up costing the same due to shipping costs. I also want to be able to take a look at the case myself before buying

>>7830662
Is it rare in the US? Amazon has it pretty cheap in Europe. 26.82€ in Italy. Actually, Amazon.com seems to have it for 44.95 Dollars, too, so if you're in someplace they ship for free, you might consider that too.

Oh yeah, since I haven't been by in a couple days. I have the Toukoumatters mostly finished. I'll post them when I get back on Wednesday or Thursday (I'm back home on vacation at the moment). They are:

Old Men's Love Talk: I'd like to see the 5 old men talk about romance. I'd like to see an unexpected side of their personalities; for example, Bourd could be unexpectedly pure-hearted. (Bourd, Falss, Alfman, Loudness, Gengai)

Fear of Heights and Steeplejacking: Please include something about the talk matter where Aoto was about to fall from the Kuu. (Misha, Aoto, Cocona, Lyner, Tilia)

No Event CGs!! The Party Members and Heroines(?) of 1, 2, and 3: 1's Krusche, 2's Amarie, and 3's Rikka talk about how they don't have event CGs, even though they're party members (and Rikka gets mad that her fellow Clustanian Akane gets one even though she's not a party member!), and as they're complaining Jack and Hikari Gojo show up to break things up... (Krusche, Amarie, Rikka, Jack, Gojo)

What We Have Left To Do: Harve XP and Vista talk about what they still wanted to do on Earth.

A New Armor Color?: The two Holy Maidens ask Croix to stop using the standard rank-and-file white armor and pick his own color. I think it would be fun if Cynthia - who'd end up making the armor - got in on it, too. (Cloche, Luca, Croix, Leglius, Cynthia)

Digital Depression: I'd like the three digital lifeforms who used to be alive to talk about their hardships. Shun "Ha! Ha! Ha! I'm fine since I have Frelia!!" It's so hard not being able to eat your favorite foods. You can do it in the Binary Field, but it would be nice to taste them in real life. (Tastiella, Infel, Shun)

Ayatane Is Too Much Of An Ideal Wife, It Bothers Me: At the end, Lyner might whisper, "Well, Ayatane might be fine, too..." or something *g* (Ayatane, Lyner)

Naming Sense: a discussion about everyone's item naming sense (Lyner, Misha, Aurica, Shurelia)

>>7830775
>Ayatane Is Too Much Of An Ideal Wife, It Bothers Me: At the end, Lyner might whisper, "Well, Ayatane might be fine, too..." or something *g* (Ayatane, Lyner)

That would be funnier if it wasn't such a worrying possibility... He'll have four reyvateils ready to kill him if that happens

>>7830711
I bought my PS3 to get free games but it was already at 3.6 when I got it. Not disappointed though, I learned I enjoyed games more if I bought them and a PS3 for $185 was a great deal. AT3 is so worth the price of a PS3 and the game IMHO.

pic related, my pride and joy, you can't put a price on love.

>>7831092
>you can't put a price on love.

Say that to Luca.

>>7831132
Luca may be a whore, but she's NOT a slut.
The only time she fucked for love was with Croix (mainly because she's such a manipulative and cold hearted bitch I'm sure she can't even feel love properly)

>>7831139
But she sold love in her Cosmosphere for money.

She's a whore AND a slut.

>>7831140
Which part?
Apart from being a jew and making you pay for her goddamn wedding dress.

>>7831092
Personally, I don't see the point of jailbreaking a PS3 if you can't get online. And as you say, you enjoy games more when you pay for them.

>>7831147
>Which part?

Her job before going on the adventure.

>>7831152
Again, she never sold REAL love refer to
>she's such a manipulative and cold hearted bitch I'm sure she can't even feel love properly
You can't sell what you don't have.

>>7831152
her fantasies did not involve any sex. her co workers mentions that she's the one who handles the kinky dreams

>>7831158
Touché.

>>7831160
We all know she only said that because Croix was there and you can't say someone's girlfriend she's a whore.
Is there any luca doujin with this plot?

>>7831092
I bought my PS3 to play AT3. I'm going to enjoy some other games though soon enough. Demons Souls, that new Atelier game, Valkyria Chronicles, new Harvest moon etc.

>>7831188
>Demon Souls/Dark Souls
>Valkyria Chronicles
>that new Atelier game
My twin! Guy you are responding to here, same reasons I got mine for the most part. Fantastic games, it will be a good purchase.

>>7831171
I only know of the one where Luca whores Cloche out and a few lovey dovey Mir ones, Ar Tonelico doesn't have very many H-doujinshi

>>7831229
There are probably quite a few, just not scanned ones. If I had some money left over right now I'd get that Finnel & Soma one translated via commission but meh.

What song on the OST has the intro to EXEC_REBIRTHA=PROTOCOL then cuts out? The one where you are climbing the inside of the tower in AT3 with the CD platforms. I like EXEC_REBIRTHA=PROTOCOL but sometimes I just want to hear the intro looped.

>>7831336
The song isn't on the OST. It's just a modified version of Rebirthia Protocol.

>>7831305
there are a LOT, just not many scanned. And an english translation of TRiLOBiTE sounds pretty cool

What are /jp/'s favorite Hymnnos in the series? My top 10 in order:
1. EXEC_CHRONICLE_KEY
2. EXEC_COSMOFLIPS
3. EXEC_METAFALICA
4. METHOD_IMPLANTA
5. EXEC_PHANTASMAGORIA
6. EXEC_FLIPS_ARPHANGE
7. Ec Tisia
8. EXEC_with.METHOD_METAFALICA
9. Flame~Homura
10. Infelious Rhaplanca

>>7831563
>What are /jp/'s favorite Hymnnos in the series?
WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
struct timeval

It's okay. Luca uses a different hole for therapy. She's still pure.

>>7831092
I wouldn't have bought a PS3 (or at least not until the next console generation) if it wasn't for AT3, and yeah, Finnel and her miserably flat chest is worth every bit I spent on it.

I still play through her cosmosphere from start to finish every now and then, best in the series with Jakuri's a close second in my mind.

>>7831713
I bought a PS3 in anticipation of Demon's Souls. But then the whole world of niche JRPGs opened up to me starting with Atelier Rorona.
So now I have my public collection of PS3 games on display next to my PS3 and my private collection in my cabinet.

CAN'T I EVEN GO ONE FUCKING PLAYTHROUGH WITHOUT FINDING A GAME BREAKING GLITCH!?
On the bright side, I only lost ~1.5ish hours, not 12 like the first time.

>>7831754
Glitches in AT1?

I never found any.

Also, could you stop misusing the quote function? Please?

How come everyone shits themselves at this song? I haven't anyone not put this as their favorite song despite it being middle of the pack musically.

>>7831902

I could sure go for some BBQ Soda right about now...

im giving up, i just cant get the damn losless shit to convert properly. foobar2k refuses to load the .cue files properly
are the OSTs in the mediafire folder losless too?

>>7833044
Hey, open the .cue in notepad and change the file extension from .wav to .tta where it says the name of the file on the third line. I wish I got payed for answering this question every week.

Why is there an option for Ryner to be alpha as fuck by murdering the girl blocking the door, breaking down the door, ripping mir out of the monster's uterus and then killing her if he's going to be a whiny bitch about it afterwards!?
Now I feel bad about it.

>>7833044
They'll all be in .flac files, so yeah, lossless.
Not all of them have finished uploading yet

>Ryner
You see this?

DO NOT DO THIS.

>>7833289
Of all the things to get mad over

>>7833296
Best to start now, as down that road calling Cloche "Crotch" lies

>>7833381
I'd prefer to call her Croche, honestly, it starts just like Croix which is the basis for their canonicity in my head

>>7833390
I can see that, but I prefer Cloche and Croix because they're French words.

Croix = Cross (fits because he's a holy knight)
Cloche = Bell (should be obvious there)

>>7833416
Had no idea.
Though I respect GUST for not shitting up the heroine's fanbases giving canon ends.

>>7833296
Every time I see this, I want to watch the OVA to see just how bad it really is

>BRB, looking for a giant boulder

>>7833466
Oh man, it's so bad you wouldn't even believe it.
The first song magic is kinda cool.

>>7833499
I have it downloaded but I don't want to ruin the universe if I watch it. Is it canon?

>>7833427
Ar Tonelico's fanbase is civil and would never resort to heroine wars, even without a definite end we don't ship and raise a fuss about our not favorite heroine. I'm fucking with you, it would be a bad shitstorm

>>7833720
Oh hell no. It directly contradicts the events of the game. It's like a 25 minute OVA and they kill Slepnir at the end of it.

It does have Pheyma in it, though!

>>7833720
We already have bad shit storms between Luca and Cloche and that's only really in a cold war because of Mir, Cocona and Cynthia providing adequate distractions.

Finally got my AT Visual Book in the mail.

I've only taken a few peeks at its contents, but it looks absolutely great.

The visual book is great, every AT fan should have it. Favorite Hymnos is quite hard to choose.
I'll go by each game:
AT1: Phantasmagoria, Auricas Purger, Linker
AT2: Sphilia, Exec_Metafalica, Replakia
AT3: XaaCi, Hymmeli, Z

>>7835710
>AT1: Phantasmagoria, Auricas Purger, Linker

I fully agree with this
also linker(linca) > chronicle key

I just bought rorona, but I think i might have been scammed. the box is really small, unlike other ps3 games I've bought.... but for some reason, it still plays on my ps3 which isn't modded, so the game must be legit... any ideas what's going?

>>7836496
You probably just got one without a case?

>>7836517
I don't know... the box is kinda elaborate
it also has this sign in the back of the cover, anybody know what is means? pretty sure it's chinese

>>7836553
Why don't you take a picture of it?

>>7836553
It means help... but if that's all you see then yes it's Chinese.

Is there any reason to use any reyvateil pairing in AT2 other than Cloche/Jacqli? Jacqli is just so much more powerful than Luca and Cloche, meaning she's easily in, and Cloche has Replekia, which is a must.

>>7833466
I watched it once, just after finishing AT1 a few years ago.

I guess the fact I remember almost nothing about it except the scene where Lyner spins his arm around in front of Aurica after crashing at the start is rather telling.

>>7838361
1st turn Replekia makes the game too easy.

>>7838361
You use Luca because you love Luca.

>>7838385
But Luca doesn't help against lvl9 reyvateils.

Replikia is baby mode.
It's not even a matter of Cloche or Luca. I used Cloche + Luca through the whole game and only used Replikia twice - once when you're doing the tutorial for it and once against an IPD that was giving me trouble.

>>7838361
Well, you could always try out the other synchronity chains and combo magics I guess?

It really comes down to what characters you like; while Jakuri's songs are really strong and Replakia is seven shades of overpowered, the game is easy enough that you don't need to use them unless you're fighting high leveled IPDs before you're "supposed" to or doing a low-level and/or no-equipment run.

All of this AT2 talk is making me want to play it again, but I already have a big backlog including both Tyria's and Saki's endings (though the former is as good as done).

Even if I do end up starting it, I'm probably just going to end up going for Jakuri for the third time in a row, despite the fact I've seen neither Cloche's nor Luca's endings so far.

>>7838385
I know I did, I love Luca but I hate that you people always do the "slut xD" meme despite her not deserving it. I always used Luca and Jakuri as that was the cutest combo, Cloche without Repleka and at level 5 is terrible, not to mention her personality is bad.

I wish you could manually take party members out of your party, AT2 without Cloche would be great.

>>7838343
Is that supposed to be Shurelia?

>>7836553
It's just a content rating system use by the Chinese, specifically the Taiwanese, and it's similar to the ESRB.

輔 means for 16 and above, for young adults.

>>7838589
Change your display font to Mona and you'll see a perfectly cute Shurelia.

These later pie scenes in Rorona are amazing.

>>7838361

If you insist on min/maxing then yeah, Cloche/Jacqli is probably the best combo. But the game is so ridiculously easy that you really shouldn't worry about min/maxing.

>>7836573
It took me some time but I finally managed to find a camera

>>7838704
Chinese character is the age-rating. And yes, your copy is legit. No, all BD cases are the same size.

I have R3 games and my copy of Rorona is the same as yours.

>>7838704
Seems like it's the English language Asian version. I don't think there are any differences between it and the normal western release.

>>7838458
im replaying the game currently and have a hard time not choosing Jaqli even though I had her ending in the first run. She's just that much superior.

>>7830652
Where can I buy this? I wouldn't mind spending all my savings

>>7838732
It's a really old garage kit.

Not possible to get anymore I'd imagine.

Fuck... I can afford this, but I put my money in a savings acc, which can't be accessed until December 1st.

What are the chances it'll still be in stock 3 months from now?

>>7838787
Oh god, I want it. But I can't justify spending $300 on it :(

>>7831229
Got some titles of the mir ones? I can't find much.

>>7838787
>Only 1 left in stock--order soon.
>Posts it in AT discussion.

I see no way this can go wrong.

>>7839397
$245. Nup, I do love Cloche, but I can't afford it.

>>7838787
http://myfigurecollection.net/sale/8556

at your own risk.

at $245 it'll still be there. It's triple what it cost in the first place. Fuck that noise.

>>7839444
I'm getting tired. For a second there I thought the price was 120,000€.

>>7839444
>Item condition Used like new

for a second I thought it was luca

In all seriousness, how much would the Luca figure go for these days?

>>7840027
its 150 USD on ebay.

>>7838775
More like, you won't find it anywhere because it's a custom job. I'd still buy one, though.

No idea about this one, though, was this a prototype for a set of figurines or something that never happened?

What the hell, my trophy data for Rorona just got completely erased after getting my first ending.

At least my saves are fine.

>>7840502
Aurica looks like she can count to potato in that one, Misha is cute though.

>>7838724
Yes but I think it is worth it to play Luca's route at least, not Cloche as she is a bitch. Kidding, they are both bitches.

Don't mind me, just improving the thread.

>>7832729

Also, is it normal for your second play through to take 8 less hours to complete, meanwhile you manage to unlock significantly more things and be roughly the same level as the first play through?

>>7844241

Yeah, given that you know exactly where the fuck to go and what the fuck to do.

Rorona's BGM for her skill in Atelier Meruru is 28 seconds of chest-wrenching moe.
>よく分からないけど。。楽しかった！
allofmymoney, miracleoftheuniverse, etc

Speaking of which, are there any arrange of falling, the star light in Totori's OST? (that's the name of the song right?)

>>7844415
>Any arrange of Falling, The Star Light ～錬金少年・少女～ in Totori

Answer to that is no

>>7844241

Yep. You know where to go, what needs to be done etc. so everything becomes easier than it already is. I think I cut 10 hours off my playtime on my second playthrough.

I find it surprisingly easy to use my yuri goggles on Luca and Cloche ( inb4 trolls and haters because >cloche ) in AT2
Am I the only one noticing that?

>>7846513

The opening alone does that.
Sadly, that's the only place where it shines without a pair of really foggy goggles.

>>7846543
I have one of the most, if not THE most, powerful yuri goggles ever to be. Heck I can turn hokuto no ken into /u/ if I so desire.
when cloche first asks for Luca to dualstall, my goggles triggered full power

No; I've seen posts (I don't remember where) about people assuming there would be yuri in AT2 based on that one part of the OP.

>>7846580

There's also that one section of Cloche's cosmosphere that triggers strong yuri vibes.
You know the one.

>>7846513
Nope. You're not the only one. Those two end up with a very amicable relationship at the end. One branch of the endings shows just how close they are to one another. In fact, you can use that ending to try justify the true ending is with Jakuri or Cocona since Luca/Cloche obviously don't need Croix. Cynthia is still forever alone

I'm still at my first playthrough ever of AT2 and only in phase 1. I've already been spoiled who the third RT is though.
what amazes me is the incredible lack of doujins for AT. I found one doujin with a single /u/ panel but god fucking dammit, JAAAPAAAAAAN

>>7846748

I always did want to see a Luca x Skycat doujin.

On an unrelated note, Jaqli is great. I was planning on going for a Luca ending first but I guess that ain't happening now. I love that little dance she does at battle results screen.

>>7846787
Skycat x Luca would incur Cloche's wrath. 999999% of it
I would still read/buy/worship it
the more I talk about Ar Yurinelico 2 the more I see it

How are the Chims different from Homs?

>>7847124
They are smaller, can only utter 'Chim' and work for pie.

>>7847124
They don't talk so I guess they're incomplete homus.

Maybe Rorona couldn't find any good semen.

>>7846513

That's very obviously the intent, though as stated by someone else they only *really* lay it on during the opening and the endings where Croix doesn't hook up with one of them.

And the last Toukoumatters are done. I haven't done anything with TKS 123 yet, but here's the links to just the flashes for now.

>>7847467

>>7847156
I don't think Rorona made them from semen.

Perhaps she replaced it with Pie?

That would explain a lot of things.

>>7847453
Nice work, as always.

Do they ever explain why she's called Shurelia when her "real name" is Eolia?

>>7848460
Shurelia's "father" had a daughter of the same name.

She died before Shurelia was even born. However, since the man missed his own daughter so much, he started calling Eolia "Shurelia". And so Shurelia got used to the name, too.

>>7848460
they bullshitted the lore because they suddenly want her to be one of the 3 goddess to connect to story, but they already named the three goddess already and they have no ways to change it. thats what i assume.

its like this
- the three goddess appeared in first game are named eolia, frelia, tilia
- name a character shurelia
- wait, wouldnt it be awesome if she's actually one of the goddess?
- oh shit we named her shurelia, wat do
- lol ill just bullshit that she's actually eolia and shurelia is a fake name from one of some random dude's daughter

Aww, Mir is so adorable, I just want to take her to a Depeche Mode concert and get her baked.

>>7848470
Why so mad?

For those in Europe interested in pre-ordering Totori:

http://t.co/IAK3HeO

Taken from a NISA Europe twitter post. It's a link to a British online store that sells a pre-order edition that comes with the artbook. Compared to the US pre-order package, it's missing the OST and poster ... but I guess that's as good as it gets if you don't want to order overseas.

>>7848471
I don't understand how nobody found that massively creepy.

>>7848535

Not that bad, in my opinion. I thought the part where they would retreat to some secluded room inside the tower to do installs in preparation for the tower link was worse.

>>7848546
At least they could pretend that was for important scientific progress or something. The naming thing is just one guy being really creepy.

>>7848345
It's almost safe to say that homonculus aren't made from horse droppings/semen. Astrid said herself there had been one previous recorded instance where the creation of a homunculus was a success and it's strongly hinted that the actual construction of one is pretty much up to the alchemists' discretion since it's such a difficult task because it has only been done once before. I'm willing to bet that Astrid left that book there to freak Rorona out over what Homu is made of.

Astrid herself is a one in a lifetime genius alchemist. Although Rorona is pretty effing good being able to perform alchemy with nothing more than hunches and not due to a solid theoretical understanding of the matter at hand. You'll realise this in Totori where she has a flashback to the time that Rorona 'taught' Totori how to perform simple alchemy. Rorona never had any previous success in teaching anyone else how to perform alchemy due to her less than precise descriptions of the process. Rorona pales in comparison to Astrid's abilities. The Chims are far simpler than Homu although it is an achievement all the same that Rorona created Homonculi.

>>7848515

I'll just give a friendly warning to those who are considering getting this version: The UK AT3 artbook was half the size of the US artbook and felt a lot lower quality. Neptunia also suffered a similar experience. For the sake of £5 extra you could order from the NISA store and be guaranteed decent quality items.

>>7849003

If it was an extra 5 GBP/EUR, it wouldn't be that much of an issue, really. Sadly though, while the pre-order collection itself is relatively cheap thanks to the weak USD, after shipping / tax / customs it's about twice the price (at least in Germany) compared to the normal retail version I can order at Amazon. The stripped down UK pre-order collection on the other hand is pretty much the same price, even with added shipping fees.

I just hit Luca's lvl 5 cosmosphere and got the luca-wins-cloche-loses event. jesus christ, my yuri goggles. they burn. They BURN.

>>7849892

You don't even need yuri goggles since it's shoved in your face so much.

>>7850327
the yuri goggles I'm wearing cannot be taken off. The only way to remove them is to rip out my eyes and pour acid in the sockets
also
>friends
yeah, just like Nanoha and Fate are

Do all US versions of Totori come with the pre order bonuses? I usually don't pre order games but I remember getting the OST when I bought Persona 4 and didn't have to pay extra for it

>>7850366
You can get the game alone or the bundle which has all the extras.

>>7850366

>>7850365
best friends ♥

why is it these total awesome pairings which never have any material to them like doujins
theres probably fanfiction of it but most fanfiction is hillariously bad

So after Raze, i'm not in the mood for Ulrika so i decided to move on.
I see a lot of bad preview of Grand Phantasm but damn that opening, stuck in my head. Anyone know where i can find the full version? What i have here is just the game version.

>>7851348
Sorry, don't mind me. 10 seconds in google. But that song man....

>>7850372
Also consider that like, Amazon.com doesn't have the poster.

>>7849545
You could consider doing what I did and have it shipping with something else. I preordered mine from Amazon.com with Rune Factory Tides of Destiny that comes out on the 28th, so atleast I'm paying the shipping costs only once. Overall I'm paying about 115€, customs pre-emptively included(I.E. if they don't check it at customs, I get that money back, even if it's unlikely with a value this high).

because im not gonna be able to play AT3 anytime in the near future, can someone spoil me if we ever find out who the hell Spica really is?

>>7851848

She's the queen of the underworld.
That's all you will ever need to know.

>>7851861
And she has a somewhat canon relationship with Mir.
>>7851348
Go play Ulrika's route, man. It's much more fun/less depressing.

>>7851953
Maybe another time. At first i thought Raze will be the main antagonist. That will awesome, but i had my hopes too high.

>>7851112
It wouldn't be good if it was mainstream.

Pictured: Asshole and his girl

>>7851639
>Rune Factory Tides of Destiny

That's actually quite a good idea. I haven't had Rune Factory on my radar (not having a DS or Wii kinda made me oblivious of the series), though from the previews and screenshots, it looks to be an interesting game.

>>7851848

Spica isn't mentioned in AT3 at all.

>>7852372
You weren't around when we played RF3 back when it was released? Some pretty good emulators were linked so many of us got into it.

>>7852976

Nah, I stumbled across the AT thread about half a year ago, gave AT1 a try, got hooked and have been a regular to these threads ever since, slowly catching up with GUST games.
Other than that I'm neither much of a /jp/ reader nor do I play many console games.

Get! For a nice $280 HKD ($35.47 CAD).

>>7856085
I don't even know what to say

>>7848460
If you want a more in depth explanation, there was a lead researched who worked on the tower called Eleno. He had a daughter named Shurelia who died in a security accident when she wanted to visit him one day.
He became depressed but continued his work. After Eoria was created he was assigned to be in charge of her installation to become the Administrator of the tower. Apparently she was the splitting image of his dead daughter so he started to call her Shurelia and she eventually became used to it.

>>7856256
Eoria already had her body but basically still was a new-born child in a lot of regards. She came to see Eleno as a father figure. They often visited the Orgel of Origins at the base of the tower for example, which Shurelia really loves. Eleno and the other researchers sadly passed away during the Grathnode Inferia and so Shurelias installation as the Tower Administrator never was completed and her beloved Orgel was lost in the Sea of Death.

>>7851848
Not in AT3.
But there's a drama CD of her, not sure if there's more about her background.

>>7856268
And as a FYI to those who haven't read the Settei books, the Orgel of Origins is a white hole of symphonic energy. It is the power source of the Ar tonelico tower

>>7856286
Yeah pretty much, Elenos ancestor made it for his daughter who also was named Shurelia. It was made from an unique song crystal.

Mediafire folder slave here.

The last thread went budda boom before I was able to grab the last updated install point zip file. Anyone still got the link? Just going over the folder and Finnel's is missing.

Oh and by the way, the Mediafire folder is being moved over to its own dedicated account.

>>7856330
In that case, I'll just repost it.
...

Thanks for taking the time to maintain a mediafire folder for us OP.

If I'm not mistaken, that's it for the install points. I've had a great time so far and learned a lot about vectoring.
I still have a few more ideas which I'll be implementing as my free time permits.

Anyway... thank you. I love you guys.

I am wondering if it would be worth it to just order some white cotton t-shirts with these on them. Don't know of a good place to do it though but I wouldn't mind wasting $100 on a few.

>>7856685
It'll be interesting to do so. I hardly expect many people to recognise what they are and they do have a rather nice style to them.

So, the Harvy personality packs; If I download them all, is there a menu in-game to change them around? Or once I install a pack is that it?

>>7856885

No, the "active" pack is the most recent one you installed, so if you want to switch you (re)download the one you want. A rather clunky way to switch, really.

>>7857055
Huh. I assume changing her back to default is by uninstalling the pack somehow?

>>7857226
There's a pack that gets her back to default.

The songs that are played during AT3 final boss.

are there full versions of it?
Tarifa is part of the Ar=Ciel Ar=Dor album, but what about the other three?

>>7857668
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTDAVnFXWsg

>>7856885
Are those ever coming to Europe? I'm beginning to think that I should really just stick with NA versions of those games.

>>7857668

Actually, like the track on the Ar=Ciel Ar=Dor album, the full song is called "Ec Tisia ~Tarifa~" and lasts 12 minutes long. They're originally all together in a single track but I spliced them into 4 parts rather badly I might add but they're good enough for me and uploaded it to Mediafire a while ago if that's what you're referring to.

http://www.mediafire.com/?7td5w53ala966sy

>>7857902
They already are out in europe, you just have to search for ar tonelico on the store. They're not in the game's category for some stupid reason.

>>7857902

All of the AT3 DLCs are available in Europe.

>>7857909

I listened to the second hymmnos orgel album yesterday and the track Au GuMu sounded a lot like the second part of Ec Tisia ~Tarifa, so I thought I missed an album or something.

>>7827132

Wait... Amazon.co.uk has NISA pre-order bonus items these days? I had to miss out of neptunia's and AT3's stuff because those fucking dickwads at tecmo-koei only put the pre-order stuff on shitty GAME.uk who wont ship pre-order stuff outside the UK.
in the end i just bought the official visual book.

amp;qid=1315816228&sr=1-1

honestly, NISA should switch to ghostlight or pqube for their EU publishing already.

>>7860484
>Wait... Amazon.co.uk has NISA pre-order bonus items these days?

Nope, only amazon.com does. Also, game.co.uk apparently does ship pre-orders outside of the UK nowadays ... I was able to place the pre-order, at least.

>>7860550
game.co.uk ships pre-orders but not the pre-order bonus items like art books etc outside the UK.

>>7860601

Wow, I totally didn't notice that. Thanks for the heads up, time to cancel my pre-order.

>>7860484

Plenty of people have moaned to them about that and they refuse to listen, it's rather silly to be honest. It's why I just flat out don't bother with Tecmo-Koei anymore and just order straight from the NISA store instead.

>>7856085

Get! Bootlegged shit.

>>7860601
Oh fuck, I'm an Ausfag and I've got Dark Souls on preorder from them.
They don't have a "Bonus Offer" tab like the Totori page does, but do you think this may affect me?

On a completely different note, what's the best way to tackle Shadow Mir in Melody of Elemia? All my reyvateils do piss-all for damage and she annihilates my vanguards, who likewise do virtually no damage, if I go a single turn without healing. I'm sitting at around level 75 but I've had no trouble up until now. Think it's an issue with my installs/enhancements?

>>7863268
>Think it's an issue with my installs/enhancements?

It's hard to say.
My level 60 crew can kill her with a little bit of trouble, and no matter how I equip my level 75 crew (within reason), she gets brutally murdered before she can cast 2 meteors

>>7863268

Have you acquired some S+ rank crystals from spica? those really help. As well as exploting Lyra with IOO crystals.

Also, putting attack+, damage+, agil+, and defense+ onto a rank 1 healing spell is one of the strongest possible ways to use blue magic.

>>7863268
It's kind of random.
sometimes she will target your reyvateil, sometimes she won't.
Best thing to do is to edit your healing songs with crystals to make sure they increase your speed, attack and defense at the same time, and bring as many healing items as possible in case your wifu gets KO'd

>>7863268
Most likely your installs.
-Attack -Defense on your level 1 spam attack spell is a great way to minimise damage quickly.
Krusche with her healing ability is a great way to take some load off your reyvateil so she can charge attack spells. It also doesn't hurt to optimise your armours to add as much resistance as possible. As a FYI, I used Aurica and had her Don Leon costume on to tank the meteors.
+fire/wind/ice/lightning crystals on weapons can really stack on the damage. Especially when you put -res on the previously mentioned spam attack spell to soften up and debuff.

>>7863268

Why not order it from elsewhere? Every copy of the game comes with a free upgrade to the limited edition.

>>7863268
>Melody of Elemia
>Problems with any boss fight

Seriously, HOW do you manage that? You should really check your installs and equipment. And make sure you've got the cosmospheres cleared and enough good spells at hand.

>>7865069
God damn, get the fuck out with your reaction images and greentext.

Shadow mir... her final form where she's floating in that dark aura ball thing?

... She actually casts spells?
I've never seen her actually cast anything, she always just uses that attack that bounces around a character and then I've beaten her.

I guess the battle has to last longer than that?
I honestly don't unload full force and try to beat her that quick, but anyone that utilizes even just the crystals they get through the game and do a bit of synthesis can break the game so hard its sad.

That boss that heals itself if you attack the wrong parts that's supposed to be "impossible" to beat if you don't fight it right?
I actually have to hold back because I out damage its healing.

I'm mostly just using normal attacks too.
Seriously.

Shadow mir... her final form where she's floating in that dark aura ball thing?

... She actually casts spells?
I've never seen her actually cast anything, she always just uses that attack that bounces around a character and then I've beaten her.

I guess the battle has to last longer than that?
I honestly don't unload full force and try to beat her that quick, but anyone that utilizes even just the crystals they get through the game and do a bit of synthesis can break the game so hard its sad.

That boss that heals itself if you attack the wrong parts that's supposed to be "impossible" to beat if you don't fight it right?
I actually have to hold back because I out damage its healing.

I'm mostly just using normal attacks too.
Seriously.

How do I get Pamela to wholesale to me?

Do enough of her Friend Requests to break I think 30 friendship?

It's seriously worth it though. Wholesaling Magic Items relieves a huge amount of pressure

Crystals are overpowered, especially since you can just go Salamander + Indra + Griffin + Leviathan Seal and stack Conqueror's Spirits.
If you want any sort of challenge whatsoever, do a no equipment run.

Almighty power + 5 attacks per round is my personal favorite though.

>those stats

I forgot how horribly easy AT1 is, thanks for reminding me.

new thread when?

It's at 283 replies.

Why would we need a new thread?

Gust (Atelier, Ar Tonelico franchises) is developing a new title in a "new genre."

For vita, according to ANN.

I'm an Ausfag. I can import the LE from the UK for $70 vs. buying it retail here for $110.

Also thanks for the suggestions on how to deal with Mir guys. Been too busy to even check /jp/ until now, but when I get time I'll have another crack.

Fellow Ausfag here. Personally, I reckon buying from the US and getting US PSN cards are the better way to go. The EU/AUS PSN store is a total PoS.

Godly Ausfag here. Importing Dark Souls from Japan because like the original all voicing will be in english and I can read enough katakana and weapon names to get by.

Atelier spinoff featuring Pamela as the main character

I wonder if this game is worth 60 bux

>>7871100
I'm sure you could find it for half that by now.

>>7871009
A popular reoccurring character along with Hagel. To a degree, she is a mascot character. Kishida Mel commented that he nearly got lynched when he mis-interpreted the scenario for an event CG. Pic related.

>>7871290
Oh wow.

>>7871290
Where do you get that stuff?

>>7871426
That's from the Atelier Rorona and Totori art book. JPN only at the moment but there is a really nice scan of it floating around. That actual cropping was from the interview pages with Kishida Mel. BTW, the comment about him nearly getting lynched because of those sketches were from the Atelier Chronicles art book, even though the offending work wasn't actually shown in it.

Looks like the thread has stopped auto-bumping. Probably from deleted posts. I'll get the stuff together and make a new thread.

And here's the new thread
