I love your video. Honestly, I was looking into the Atelier series for a while now. Thanks to this video and the on going sale, I think I'm going try the Atelier series now. Thanks!

never trust a British person

Except for Takamasho, being localized as "Low Kai" for some reason. And some English voice lines in the Japanese are just cut in the English version.

I'm not sure if anyone cares, but i guess i'll share my journey too. I knew about the series since middle school. Images and artwork of Rorona was my introduction. For me, the series attracted me to it because of the very cute designs. Personally less a fan of Ryza designs although Klaudia is super cute. The girly designs is cute and very tasteful despite as a male... so I guess I'm a outlier when it comes to what character design I prefer. Anyways, as a poor middle schooler, I never got the game. I finally did it recently and I started off with Rorona. Rorona is supposed to be the start of of the modern atelier series along with the first of its trilogy, so seem like a logical start. I never found the time limit too hard at the start. It was only on the 3rd year that I felt the need to optimize my time hard. IDK how you got true ending with only getting 3 stars on the bottom (it translate to 1 star during the actual evaluation). I got the normal ending and I only missed a couple. The game felt pretty easy combat wise and objectives, with combat getting bit harder on the second year but manageable and then much harder both time and combat on 3rd year. My favorite character to team up with is Esty. She's so cool. I clocked in on nearly 50 hours on the first play through. I'm also playing the overtime and NG+ so probably double that. I think the games offer a lot more hours than just 20-30. The alchemy was simple to learn but hard to master. I only started to get all the mechanics after the first play through including overtime. The start was interesting but during the first year, I thought the game wasn't all that special. Didn't hate the game but didn't find it amazing. From 2 year onwards, I started really liking it a lot. The game got a bit more difficult which kept me engaged while all the mechanics being introduced kept the gameplay loop interesting. There was also more cutscenes that made me continue wanting to see more. And with 3rd year and overtime, there are so much stuff I want to craft and areas to explore, bosses to beat that 4 years doesn't feel enough.

was not expecting you to specifically use wipeout as an example of a dedicated racing game but i hella respect it cuz GOD i miss that series

7:31 R&C predicted the Ukraine war

i dont like singleplayer games but with ratchet and clank you dont even have to try its just fun its great the art style is impeccable, magnificent, everything down to the sound effects, just pure art

Its aged like milk, but that's turned it to cheese

Don't know if you just decided to not cover this, but this game does have a secret boss :DDD, nvm just saw someone mention it 8 months ago :DD

Despite its gameplay aging a bit poorly in contrast to future titles such as my fav (Going Commando). I still find myself replaying this game first every time I decide to marathon through the series. It’s futuristic and funky OST, atmospheric and colorful planets, and quirky dark humor always keeps a warm place in my heart. ❤❤

Falcom shell as usual you singlehandly market there game to west at this point ....Tokyo Xanadu was pretty mid game and Xanadu Next was 100 time better game from the same series ...but if this there worst game (cold steel 2 still the worst ) then they are goat company for making good games since ever

I first played this game on a demo disc around '02 - I played it to death. There were only 2 or 3 planets/levels and limited weapons but it was enough. I didn't actually buy the game until about 5 years later, by which time the sequels had already come out. After completing the first, I went on the hunt for the others. The thing I didn't like about the sequels was the forced upgrades. In RnC my weapon combo of choice were the standard Morph-o-Ray and the Gold Suck Cannon, with this you could get lots of bolts (which, if you want the R.Y.N.O. you'll need a lot!) In the sequels you couldn't keep a weapon at the lower level. I still love the first 3 but 1 is my all time fave.

man, i want to live in the universe where Xanadu Next 2 exist, not this action RPG Persona

0:47 You did not just say that. What's your most favorite then?

I got quite bored since the combos got integrated

I love it, I just got done with Kingdoms of Amalur and it is an extensive high fantasy action rpg, definitely a hidden gem.

It’s honestly wild to me that Microsoft were even willing to publish this game considering how blatantly anti-corporate it is

Just purchased Arland trilogy on Switch. Looking forward to trying it out. Great video!

the one thing i hated from this game was the wall jump… Back then I would starts crying whenever I fail the jump when almost getting through it.lol But I loved the part where u get to play clank and control mini bots to fight for u

I didn't realize strafing was useful in any game until I became an adult. It just usually made every game that had it more difficult to play. Insomniac knew that strafing was not needed for a game like this. If you play S and R games as if none of them have strafing, then you learn to play them in a way that makes strafing an actual waste of time in some cases.

Alright girls, new egg gamer RUclipsr found.

Idk when they changed writing styles, but imvplaying rift apart for the first time and am really missing the original personalities of R&C. Now everyone is overly nice and slightly corny vs the silly banter and slight edge that gave the game some charm.

Yall remember in rachet and clank 2 where if your disc was a little scratched, you would keep flying through space over and over and over and over and over until you decided to reset and try again? Lol good times

RAC 1 is timeless

A Japanese Role Playing Game with Japanese Voices English Subtitles Tokyo Xanadu Ex+ By Falcom and Aksys Game

This Game was on PS Vita and PS4 and Nintendo Switch Tokyo Xanadu Ex+ Falcom Aksys Game

The original Ratchet is still my favorite in the series. Going commando improves on the first in almost every way imaginable. I’d say the one thing it is lacking is a strong villain. The humor is great, the satire is even better, there were so much more variety and the universe is way more expensive. It’s just lacking that one thing.

This was a really well crafted video, nice story telling skills, great intonation and actually funny. Great!

nice character action game review

Playing Tokyo Xanadu after CS2 made me extremely impressed by it. Seeing that they managed to add realtime combat, and to me, fun, challenging combat in a turn-based engine amazed me while it takes so much of Trails' character building. The music is great too, I prefer it over CS2's in a number of places. Really looking forward to the sequel.

But have you played the greatest Atelier games of all time, Mana Khemia 1 and 2?

Always loved these games. I'm playing the remake, just need 1 more trophy to platinum it. I still don't know which one is my favorite. I think I've played and completed most, including the handheld ones. The only one I haven't played yet is Rift Apart. After a R&C break, I'll play it. That platinum grind is real, almost done maxing all weapons.

Ah yes my favorite game "Wallet May Cry : Peek of Greed" Edit: The reason i still play peak of combat is, i can't buy dmc 5 and my laptop isn't strong enough to play dmc 4 😢

I don't mean to pile on or be mean but you seriously needed to go first person to hit the enemy in front of you at 5 minutes? You might not have a full grasp of the game.

Doom eternal for kids sounds awful for Doom eternal.

you forgot to mention that they also made rebellion sword locked as a skin

For me the whole ratchet and clank series is amazing, and yes I liked deadlocked, it was a gun xp farm and I loved collecting bolts and killing everything the story for that one didnt matter to me.

Sterk figure when Also Ayesha is great. The story is higher stakes than the Arland tribology and the music is gorgeous.

Aged like milk?? You mean turned into the finest cheese? In that case YES.

The worst thing is why tf they made it into a gacha game

Oh man, Nayuta. It's admittedly not my favorite of Falcom's games outside of their big two -- I do prefer Xanadu Next for just hitting personal preference more closely -- but it just holds a special place in my heart. Like you said, it's one of the coziest games they've made and it's probably the easiest to just pick up and play if you want a quick half-hour session or something. And I love the fact that, for all the world-ending threats, it's still just kinda something that happened to Nayuta. Like, not even really the most important thing in his life. I think they say at the start of the game something like 'this is the story of my incredible summer vacation' and yeah, he just goes back to school afterwards and that's kinda great. Anyway, great video! Nayuta fans always get my respect! ... And with that out of the way, can we *talk* about the lore implications? From here on it'll all be mad ramblings, so by all means feel free to tune it out. But I find Nayuta interesting narratively for the ways that it bridges the gap between Ys and Trails. Like you said, it's definitely a 'greatest hits of Falcom' and you can see easily what they took from where. But I kinda like to believe that what it's meant to do is use the familiar frameworks of each series to show how certain aspects apply to others. Like take the People of Mythos, for instance. The comparison to the Eldeen writes itself given the ancient civilization destoryed by humans using their technology, the wings, the controlling a source of magic-equivalent through two twins, the turning into stone on death. Or the fact that the Astrolabe feels like the Ark of Napishtim but with Orbment Gears and the Constellation Core feels not insignificantly like the Black Pearl. But then the question is why? I like to think that it shows a through-line between the Eldeen, People of Mythos, and an unseen ancient race in Zemuria. Going back to setting, Ys takes place on not-Earth with two moons, Nayuta on a planet (I think) explicitly referred to as Earth with two moons where one is decidedly not a moon, and Trails in a setting that (seemingly) has no connection to Earth and only one moon. So what's the deal? Well through implication, like how Lost Heaven is a satellite crafted by the people of Mythos, we can infer that Ys' second moon is some form of Eldeen construct which then continues to imply that there isn't one in Zemuria because their ancients didn't *need* it; both the Eldeen and People of Mythos suffered terrible catastrophes at the hands of humanity which destroyed their civilization and left a significant chunk of the world either uninhabitable or underwater. Then we have Zemuria where there *is* an understood limit to the landmass like in these two, but no seeming explanation for *why* and the apparent calamity that happened affected humanity in the Great Collapse. Which brings us back to the cause of the calamities. In Nayuta, the People of Mythos were destroyed utterly because (IIRC) they shared their technology freely with humanity and then the humans made terrible weapons of war which blew everything up. In Ys, the Eldeen were destroyed because they only shard a *limited* technology with humans who grew jealous and tried to steal what was left, ruining everything when the Ark of Napishtim went out of their control. So where does that leave Trails? There's an obvious third scenario: the 'Eldeen/Mythos' of Zemuria simply refused to share any technology and thus managed to keep humanity suppressed. The Great Collapse is when the 'Darkling' equivalent in Zemuria either tried to challenge the Ancients or grew powerful enough to worry them and so they dropped the hammer and wiped them out. The boundary on Zemuria represents a kind of nature preserve invisible fence the Ancients are using to keep humanity in their place and out of their world. But of course, this begs the question of what about Aidios? Since she seemed willing to share at the very least the Septerrions with humanity, how does she fit in? Well she could either be a rebel among their people trying to uplift humanity because she thinks it's right or a member of them tasked with slowly developing humanity until they're willing to join the Ancients without resorting to immediate war and a technological arms race. And assuming the Grandmaster isn't Aidios, the fact that she looks like Creha is *very* interesting. Now I don't think that she's literally Creha, but Creha and thus a resemblance to her represents something critically important: one half of a pair of ancients much like Creha and Selam or Feena and Reah. I'd contend that the Grandmaster, Creha, and one of the Twin Goddesses (I can't decide which; maybe Feena because of the golden ornamentation) are *thematically* the same person and Aidios stands in as the other of the pair. Ouroboros and the Septian Church stand in conflict as a proxy war between their respective Ancient Twin Patrons who disagree about how to utilize whatever artifact -- Black Pearl, Constellation Core -- lies under their command and how much access humanity should have to it. Remember that in Ys I, it's mentioned that the Twin Goddesses represent Freedom and Order which feels like it maps pretty one to one to Ouroboros and the Septian Church. And there's the fact that the Wings of Water/Weatherlight have more than a passing resemblance to the Spetian Church's Stigmas and seems to fill the same purpose as the Eldeen's White Emelas wings which could be taken as an implication that the Stigma are a kind of testing ground for preparing humans for transference into something akin to Emelas bodies. And like, if the Astrolabe is meant as a season control system and the Ark of Napishtim a weather control system, perhaps Zemruia itself is just an extraplanetary colony that was terraformed by the Septerrions -- something which ties almost directly into the fact that Kai looks like it'll be dealing with space which goes back around to the two moons point and -- you know? I think I've lost coherency. I'll leave it at that for now. Sorry for the wall of text, ha ha.

I don't think you went into enough detail about sybils rear end

Needs a remaster with quality of life improvements.

I don't know if Rune Factory 5 was the only game you tried back then but it happens to be a very controversial (and generally not seen as very good) game.

2 needs a remake

I think the OG had some of the best level to weapon designs. Each level built on the other with almost a need to use new weapons and also allowed for a lot of creativity

6 months later, the stuttering every few seconds is still there and in my opinion makes these ports absolutely terrible in terms of playability. I dropped it and bought the PS4 versions and they are perfect in comparison.

I kinda dont like the newer atelier series since they removed the time challenge part of the game.. and made the alchemy system elementary,., it's like taking away what;s fun from the game and replacing it with just thighs,,

Going comando is a huge part of my childhood, i will always have a special place for this game in my heart❤

"2. Bad Writting" oh no xD
