I went with Luca my first playthrough and didn't regret it. She was really interesting, because she wasn't a nice person, and I thought the pay off was worth it, especially hearing Hartes ciel, melenas walasye in the game and just getting to see how she'd changed by the end of the game.

But I thought the great thing was you couldn't go wrong in that game. The Jakuri ending is excellent, Cloche is a great character, and Luca is a really interesting character.

>> No.14926077

Speaking of Jakuri, after checking auction sites every day for four months, I finally found a Mir dakimakura cover. I was getting ready for a bid war, but I ended up being the only bidder.

Finally done with Tyria's Binary field but i have never been so frustrated with bugs. In my 40+ hour playthrough I've ran into text glitches and it even freeze up in a few times with Harvestasha Boss fight but none can compare to the audio sync in Tyria's CS3. I did all i can like restarting the game, cleaning up the disc and the problem persists!

Much to my horror Ar Nosurge has more glitches than Qoga and what's more, those glitches were "ported" over to the Vita version.
Bravo Gust.

"It isn't a bug, it's a feature". The only game-breaking bug I encountered was Delta's lightning attack against a car enemy. Quite frustrating, but avoidable. Recently I started replaying it and the patch fixed quite a bit of minor errors, usually in the localization field. It's interesting what you're saying about AT3, though. The game froze only once for me (same battle) and I didn't spot other obvious bugs. Maybe some of them are "malicious" enough to show up only in certain circumstances.

Like >>14996825 said, it's the start of its own sub-series, since the Atelier series reboots itself every 3 games or so. Of the modern Ateliers, the three sub series are Rorona-Totori-Meruru, Ayesha-Escha&Logy-Shallie, and Sophie-[inevitable sequels because Gust will die if it goes a year without making an Atelier game], so the only games you would remotely spoil yourself for by playing are Meruru, E&L, and Shallie.

Even then, there's very little as far as important revelations/plot points that the later games spoil about the early games. The only remotely major one I can remember is that Meruru has a scene that spoils the true ending of Totori, but that's about it.

What is it with Nipps and their love for authority figures? It's clear that Ion is the avatar of the writer with her "ideals" and the writing for the scenarios to reinforce them, but still.

Watching Ion in chapters 4 and 5 is absolutely painful, and it goes deeper than poor writing. Ion throwing away the lives of everybody around her because Ion trusts the authority figure more than the people risking their lives to save her, even after she just about catches said authority figure red handed is something I can let pass once - she was young and naive, and then she should learn a valuable lesson... Only she doesn't, and instead does it again and AGAIN.

Does she get better in Ar noSurge,?please tell me she was locked in the box long enough to learn a valuable lesson. pls, If Ion is this painful to watch, I will probably have trouble with coordination in combat due to the amount of alcohol I will need to be able to stand it.

It's not about her trusting the authority figure, but about trusting other people in general. i.e., trusting that everyone means well at heart, that all lives are important, etc.

>None of the characters in Ciel are black-and-white evil, and that's the point.

That's a common theme in Gust games, really- there are very few actual "evil" characters, and the ones who are generally aren't the main villains. Arland and Dusk's final bosses generally were forces of nature more than characters, Ar Tonelico 1's final boss is redeemed in its true ending, Ar Tonelico 2 is basically you kicking the asses of a series of people who want to save the world in "wrong" ways before you save it the "right" way, and Ar Tonelico 3's final battle is basically you healing the final boss.

That said, Nosurge is probably the game(s) with the clearest villains. Of the main ones Nelo's made out to be sympathetic enough, but Zill pulls way too much shit to be seen as anything but completely fucking evil- when you fight and beat her and Nelo early on in Ar Nosurge and she goes "well yeah you're trying to save humanity just like I am so I'll let you go" I wanted the dialogue option to scream "HEY REMEMBER THAT TIME ZILL KIND OF GOT HER WAY AND IT FUCKED THINGS UP SO BAD NAY HAD TO REVERSE TIME IN ORDER TO FIX IT?"

I don't think so. Zill's philosophy are that people are stupid and malicious and it's better if we became a hivemind. There are lots of philosophers who have explored that idea, so I wouldn't call it evil, even if it's someone most people would disagree with.

Incarnates have always been humans that can use Song Magic with no outside support by definition (ie: they always have a human form, not that of any other creature). No other class of Genom can use Song Magic without synchronizing with a human.

Incarnates are not "humans" though. They are "humanoid" genomes. Much like how Prim was quite obviously not human, but humanoid.

The core definition of Incarnate is "A genom, typically humanoid, with a set of vocal chords capable of producing song." Or most simply, any genom that could sing.

Look at Cosal. Basically, while >>15065154 isn't totally on point, he's close enough.

>If I saw a *dog-like man* that could summon a bigger dog made of fire I'd be afraid of it too

That leaves Undu out of the picture then, who looks completely human in Ar nosurge, and if the way he worked in the Genomirai days means anything, it means he also looked human enough back then that he could also pass off for a human before anyone.

And Cosal doesn't really count because he was over 10000 years without a body, and the lion-like body he has in Ar nosurge was actually made for him when yal fii-ne noh-iar; was sung so he wouldn't need to keep himself anchored to Kanon. Therefore, he doesn't count as a true natural Incarnate.

Also, the air vibrations emitted by the mouth aren't significant for the casting of Song Magic as long as the vocal chords are still moving, similarly to how in Ar tonelico even mute Reyvateils are capable of singing Song Magic. They after all emit the waves necessary for the song to manifest its effects in other ways that have nothing to do with normal singing and speaking.

We don't know what Undu looked like back in the Old Genomirai Labs days, but remember that Genomirai was actually started by the Chimon so having genom working there would not have been abnormal.

Regardless of how human he seemed, everyone was aware he was a genom, there was no subterfuge involve in that aspect.

>>15066335
Like >>15068248 mentions, there's some suggestion that cultivating bodies was possible, but the rest of the story suggests that transferring souls was the hard/untested part.

Not a big loss, considering that it would never get released in English anyway. Still, hopefully it wasn't the thing Tsuchiya vowed to "fight with his life on the line" for in 2016.

On an unrelated matter, IF compressed images in Cross Edge with some variant of RLE I'm not familiar with, which is likely custom, since none of the tools I have can decompress it. Apparently they started to use common image formats I expected to see there later. The least worthless of uncompressed images are BGs, but none of them are AT-/Atelier-related.

Yeah Last Message is personalized to a degree. The tracks included are based on your Ciel data, Kind of an A or B for track n. Some tracks only were included if you triggered specific conversations, etc. None of that is too extremely personalized, but...

The first few seconds of track one, when Ion says your name is magic.

I'll never upload mine at least.

Jacqli doesn't have breast envy beyond Croix always ogling Cloche.

You're being rude. Mir doesn't envy ANYONE. Rarely was there a more self-confident herione in Japanese media.

I can't remember if Cas ever displayed envy of a specific pair of breasts, but I know she's mad that she incarnated before she filled out and hence never will

She smacks Tabou for remarking how much bigger Ion is than her in Ch1 of Ciel, but that's about it.

The DFC girls of nosurge don't seem to mind too much, though Nay has some latent regrets.

Well I only care about Atelier so okay. It seems like there's no breast envy in Sophie and that's the important thing.

I don't think I like the sound of that.
