I liked them, but the general thread was getting stale. It's really nice to see that unlike other boards and fan bases we had the decency to stop before it got out of hand.

If someone has just started playing one of the games and decides to make a thread about it, or if some new content is released, I'm convinced we could have a 50-60 replies long thread about it without any difficulty

Nah, JRPGs with a wide Western release go in >>>/vg/. There's no reason AT belongs in /jp/ any more than Final Fantasy does. There's a reason the OP of those threads went from "GUST General" to "GUST Thread" when /vg/ popped up. And the fact that GUST developed a few semi-VNs doesn't mean all their games are /jp/-related, otherwise we could have Square/Enix generals--both developed VNs/eroge.

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 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.

The setting, art and especially the soundtrack are really beautiful. But from what little I've seen of the actual game it's full of stupid innuendo's and general otaku pandering, also the gameplay seemed very simplistic.

Contrary to what the fuckheads on this board say, you are exactly right. AT2 does seem to be the best of the three. They all suffer from over-simplistic, uninspiring gameplay and doesn't even have half the depth many people pretend it does.

You are deluding yourself if you think AT3 is worth any amount of money. I'll say fine to AT1, despite the monotonous gameplay and VERY poor dungeon designs, the characters are OK. They are cliched but likeable, nothing they say or do is offensive so to speak and they are, at worst, tolerable.

Contrary to AT3 where every character is annoying as fuck, their designs are generic to horrible, and the "get nekkid for da powa!" is something you can get the same amount of enjoyment from watching it on Youtube as you can playing it.

AT2 was the worst Ar Tonelico. Shitty gameplay (PRESS X NOW FOR BLOCK SIX TIMES IN A ROW ASSHOLE, AND REPEAT FOR THE NEXT 50 HOURS), shitty characters (slut, bitch, only Mir saves the day) and overall poor story. The music was okay, but AT1 and AT3 also have good music.

Its a shame the trilogy went out with a fizzle instead of a bang. You'd think GUST would have put everything they learned from the first 2 games into the 3rd. Instead they opted throw everything overboard to make a poor mans tales game.

Being the admnistrator of the first tower, Shurelia is probably the one with the most power at her disposal between the admins.
Mule's power came from her extract songs which were pretty much a hack to gain Shurelia's access privileges, without them she's just a really talented pure blooded reyvateil, probably a notch or two above Misha but inferior to an admin, if she can still hack then she's easily the most powerful one.

Most were failures but Mir was a success, she also was able to fight Shurelia one on one and push her back (before she was sealed away). So she is definitely more powerful then Shurelia and possibly the other Origins as well in terms of power output, she was designed to be that way.

I have to admit that I had totally forgotten she was doing the EDs for the last Symphonia OVAs.
First episode's ED was included in Byakumu no Mayu, but that's still three new songs: The second episode's ED (full version not yet released, but there's a DVD cut available, it's excellent: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7eXKsZv2gI)), the third episode's ED, and the probably mindblowing Symphonia OVA's "Grand Ending Theme". The DVD with these last two songs shipped TODAY.

According to the wiki:
This was Mir's very first song, made out from her feelings of gratitude to the humans for creating her, and from her love for them, but she never got to sing it because it was discarded together with the other songs that weren't of practical use to her creators. Because of that, when Mir recovered it, she chose to never sing it and sealed it in the Silver Horn. Its effect is giving calm to the minds of its listeners, and enshrouding them in happiness.

In the game, it was sung back to Mir by Misha during the final battle, in an attempt to quell her hatred by reminding her of the love she once felt for the Humans.

Atelier Ayesha pretty damn fun, on my 4th and last playthrough to get the last endings I still need (Linca's and Juris' endings). What do you think the best party is? It doesn't matter at all by now because all my accessories have stacked comet power/+25 HP/Skill Lv3, but for an average first playthrough?

I'd say Keithgrif for sure for dat utility and periodic damage, and then either Wilbell or Odelia for their periodic healing/resurrection abilities that persist through death. Wilbell for slightly more defensive play (magic barrier reaction skill), Odelia for slightly more offensive play (summon slag).

I've only played JP AT2, but Trulywaath is the correct translation, suggest you deal with it. You might not like it, but Croix = Chroah as well.

If it's hymmnos then I'm sure it's fine. I guess it's just an unfortunate naming circumstance.

If we're using トゥルーリーワース, we're going from what I'm presuming is a half-English-in-kana and half-hymmnos-in-kana name to a half-English and half-hymmnos name, rather than an entirely kana name to an entirely English name?

What does "waath" mean? I honestly can't remember a thing about this being explained, I'll assume that's my fault.

At least it doesn't sound horrifying either way.

Australia.

In the past, whenever I've tried to order from Amazon shipping has been ridiculously expensive; eg. tried to buy some headphones, shipping fee was $290 or some shit.
I added the album to the cart out of interest though and this time it read 2300JPY, so maybe they're doing flat rate shipping or something now? I don't know.

In any case, I'm still going to wait and see if there's any exclusive bonuses for ordering from Salburg.
