It's been a while since I put out a long video that's actually scripted so hopefully this is entertaining, and hopefully you'll be interested in trying this series out!
Seriously, please do!
Even if you're just a little bit interested!
I'm serious I don't want these games to die p l e a s e

I wanted to try this series for a long time but I'm too afraid that I would lose my arm and leg to save my little bro from a failed synthesis in making our mother
Well if you know where your mother's soul is and don't mind her not having a body of flesh and blood you can always create a doll with her likeness and then use alchemy to craft several rare and powerful tools for transferring said soul into the doll. It's what Sophie did. It's why I don't think she should take an exam and should just get her full liscence. She's transferring souls and using alchemy to replicate Time Lord technology's chief attribute. And she can apparently just give away the portable atelier, which likely means she can just make another one. Even with a cheat cauldron her abilities are pure bullshit and she's probably the best alchemist in her games.
nice reference there.
👍
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Niceeee
Still too soon... especially if you have a dog
Thank you for introducing me to Atelier hell.
Hope you're proud of yourself.
Atelier Lulua (The Alchemist of Arland 4) will be coming for PS4 and Switch Spring 2019. And don't bother picking up Nelke, that's just a crappy crossover game they made to enthrall the fans without putting in actual effort into it.
@@LeonGun8 is nelke really that bad????
Basically, it plays like a Mobile Game. Your character is not even an alchemist, she's a civil servant and the gameplay is mostly city building. There are battles but you basically just go to a linear plane,walk while your characters chat,and then fight monsters with very stiff animations very similar to most mobile games, and when the linear path ends your "research" finishes and you are back in town for another round of events and city building.
I may be too harsh to it since it DOES has it's unique side to it. It's basically a followup to the Atelier DS series, except that we're building a city instead of improving a shop or making money. But it has that same feel of focusing on "improving" your livelihood rather than focusing on alchemy and fighting in itself.
@@LeonGun8 well i understand your harsh one, but i think you have to undestand too that this era/time, 21st century, people don't have time to play from the beginning, like for example, dusk series (escha and logy, etc), needs time way more than normal one, or maybe the misterious book (sophie, firis, lilie), like the atelier series in fact a 3 story from each era/place/main story, with a different end and fun yet difficult and long game too, i played sophie on laptop, and in order for me to atleast make it to almost "end" game atleast 5 months, that are also include doing stuff like go to college, part-time jobs, even follow a trending-anime like omg, when will i play that? not to mention the problem of controller in PC, which I cannot sell item (lucky my friend have a xbox-PC controller), and now i haven't finish it yet
mobile phone game is a "shortened" version of entire atelier game, which basically only introduce some of character (especially main heroine) to the "today" player
just imagine if "today" player play from A5-A19, needs to finish in less than 4 years (this is the fastest to finish ALL of A-SERIES, which is also with doing with daily/real life activities)
thanks to wikipedia, they may learn some of it, but as a player like us, yeah maybe it is harsh to say that the game is suck, but you have to bare it
Oh, I mostly understand what they aimed for but what I mostly couldn't take was the downgrade in quality itself. When I say mobile games I do not mean to snub mobile games as a whole either as I have played good ones. But instead that it feels like they downgraded the quality of everything, from graphics and presentation, to animations to battle mechanics. In fact, I can't even understand why they are releasing it for PS4. For Steam and Switch I get since Steam gets a lot of cheaper games and Nelke fits pefectly for a handheld game, but the PS4 release is completely unnecesary honestly.
I'm sure you'll never read this comment but my girlfriend and I just bought the Atelier Iris trilogy after searching for a while and I found this video while looking into the series as a whole. This is a great video and I'm sad to see you are inactive. I wish I had found you before.
she's active on twitch playing other games, but yeah her reviews and recommendations are great
@@juliojack1862 What is her twitch?

Man you're not alone. I feel like buying an atelier game myself. That's the magical thing about those older videos - they bring ppl together.
I'm putting a note here that I am indeed speaking from the perspective of the original releases of the games and not the Plus versions. However, if you do have the chance to get a Plus version of a game, I would recommend getting it over getting the original since they're basically the base game but improved and with added bonus content. Also I know I butchered some of the names. Atelier persistently putting almost real but not actually real names in their games is tough for someone who is naturally mumbly like me. I'm sure you'll still be able to understand what I'm talking about though! :)
I've been eye balling these games for a while now. I don't know why I didn't bother to give them a chance, nor research them. Thanks for the video. I'll definitely check them out.
Let's not forget about Atelier Rorona Plus which is vastly superior than the original since it just not add contents and some improvements, compare to Totori Plus and up, but added a lot of changes in the game.
JP audio for Atelier Ayesha+, which was not on the original Ayesha release in the west.
It's also worth mentioning that there's a drastic amount of cut dialogue for choosing to play most any of the games with English audio instead. And I don't mean miss-translations, but altogether skips and gaps in the scripts.
Indeed. And then you have Lydie & Suelle with no english audio.
You know, I actually played the original western release of Ayesha with mute voice audio....
I could see that being a natural progression to things.
My favorite line from the series : “Barrel!”
This deserves a heart.
B-b-b-barrel!!
Donkey Kong has been looking for his barrels for awhile now
Iris yelling "Barrel!" Will be forever engrained in my head.
たるだ！
Holy crap. Thank you. I keep seeing these on PSN, and I've been curious about where to start. You are great, thank you. Now to watch the video.
queen come through and slay me w/ these long ass videos
Thanks for sharing. I've put this series off for decades and finally caved yesterday. So here I am, 47 years old playing the mysterious book lol. I'm enjoying it so far. The characters themselves are absolutely beautiful. I'm playing on pc so it came with a crap ton of extra music. The music is one of my favorite parts of the game so far. I love that I can choose what I want to listen to. I can even keep it on repeat 😊
Where to start?
Study the Basics of Alchemy...
In the GUSTverse
Alchemy - the science of breaking down, understanding and rebuilding substances...
Become a puni

Just dont try human transmutation
Playing an Atelier game is like playing an excellent anime; good art, good characters, good story. A very fun series with lots to do
back then, PS3 recently bought, "I want to play some jrpg" *looks at totori's art cover* "you'll do"
best blind buy I have ever done
Reminder for those who are interested. An english translation patch for Atelier Marie + Elie: The Alchemists of Salburg 1 & 2 for the PS2, which is a remastered version of the first two games, has become recently available.
GBAH awesome! I think I’d been following a few translation patches for the older games but lost track and didn’t know that any had released!
I need to try this out
How do you apply this patch though?
This is old but you haven't figured it out I'm going to assume the translation is in .ips format, you would use LIPS. Open lips, navigate to the translation file, then navigate to the .iso/.bin/.img file of the game, burn and/or run on PCSX2
@@jazzycup9274 I recently found the translated version but thanks still very informative
This must be a nightmare to gather footage and edit.
I don't know if anyone complimented you on this, but your editing is great.
Great job.

*oof* your right my dudes
I also started out with the Dusk series, which also ended up being my favourite. Ayesha got me hooked and it only got better in the two following two games - love the combination of lightheartedness and the mystery of the dying world constantly lurking in the background. It's good to finally see someone who seems to appreciate the Atelier games as much as I do. :)
I never knew this series had such a history. With Ryza coming out they're still going strong.
I know I just found out about this series.
I think Atelier Escha and Logy is the best start.
- No real time limit.
- Girl and Boy to pick from.
- Not too hard to learn Alchemy.
Can I get your pfp? Where did you see it?
I wouldn't recommend this game as a start. Ayesha and Escha & Logy at first turned me off from the franchise. These are the first two games I tried before any other. It wasn't until I played Atelier Shailie, strangely enough, which got me into the franchise, although that's the last one in the Dusk arc.
For younger gamers or maybe beginners, I might recommend the newer arc that's out though. Maybe Ryza will be a good starter when it comes out, but the Mysterious arc may be a good start.
But then again, it really depends on what you're looking for. The Dusk arc probably has the best story.
@@chronofantasy1987 I finished both Escha & Logy and Shallies. Shallies got better battle system but the story is dying after second half of the game. I would say Escha and Logy got better story than Shallies. Shallies final boss is very underwhelming.
So, in other words, Mana Khemia 2 with more of a time limit?
For dusk its just really have 2 choices at this point
Escha and logy or shallies
Being in America, without surprise, my love for the Atelier series all started for me with Atelier Iris: Eternal Mana.
No time limit so you can feel free to flow through at your pace.
Every event progresses the time in game and adds extra depth.
Humor, romance, and epic story all entailed inside.
Barrel!
I'm a huge fan of most JRPG series but the Atelier games were never my thing perhaps because they're so lighthearted. That said, if it fits ones taste it looks like a very consistent franchise that delivers what its fans want. This is a nice video^^
Have you tried the older Atelier games like Mana Khemia and Atelier Iris? They're less lighthearted than the newer games.
How is cold and steel?
they are moeshit and yuribait for adult males who watch precure and cardcaptor sakura
Lighthearted? Try Mana Khemia and Atelier Iris. They're the black sheeps of the Atelier franchise.
Thank you I was honestly planning to get this game but I was unsure but after hearing about it from you I wanna buy it myself now
Thick Thighs Save Lives i recommend atelier rorona > totori > meruru or arland series
Technical wise, rorona plus is the latest in mechanic, which similar to meruru
Totori is the oldest in mechanics
Or you can play OLD rorona on PS3 for the lolz, not recommended
Story wise, totori is the best out of 3
character wise, i love meruru
Gameplay wise, okay, but rorona plus is most balanced from performance
An intro into my early GUST games of my highschool days... Damn I feel old now....
Mana Khemia is my fav btw..
the best atelier ever. The battle just that good with shredding guitar as battle theme. And it a school setting which make it easier to get through the story
I might try one eventually. You can rent both from gamfly. My friend said he loved the one he played back in the day.
me too, i also love mana khemia so much, well i love mk 1 more than 2 but both are great games back in the day
AgehaLady
Great taste~ Mana Khemia 1 is gewd~
Played Mana Khemia 2 for the continuation of the story and for *"A Certain famous JP seiyuu"* (This is the clue)
also, ar tonelico. 1 and 2. never played 3... shame on me.
Always wanted to know more about this series. Thank you for this!
With the Atelier Nelke (and its All-stars Ensemble) "spin-off" announced to come to the West, I have to say this is the most impeccable timing to release this video.
That said, I must also say the Atelier Iris and Mana Khemia were so different in structure they rather led to the creation of the Ar Tonelico series...
Ar Tonelico was a collaboration project between Gust and Banpresto, and the creator, Akira Tsuchiya already had plans for it's setting since he was in highschool. AT 1 was released at the same year as Iris 3, so it probably was in development maybe even before Iris 2 that was released a year earlier, while Mana Khemia was released one year after AT 1.
Ar Tonelico and Iris/Khemia share some of it's developers, including Akira himself, but is completely different to them. There is a crafting system with Grathmelding, but it looks so much like an afterthought that you can completely skip it and you'll miss basically nothing of the game, side for the ocasional conversations between the protag and your current Reyvateil.
I've played and finished AT 1 and am now going through MK 1, and they're both very good, but I like the gameplay in MK a lot more, specially the combat, which I consider to be one of the best Turn Based combat in any RPG I've played.
This is an amazing video! I think the only improvement I can give it is that because there are so many games, it would be nice if the title of each game or the box art were up on screen as well in the corner or something. This is a lot of information to swallow at once but this video has also convinced me to try the series out!
High Impact
S E X U A L V I O L E N C E
I like the Arland trilogy the best myself. They struck the best balance with time management while maintaining a cozy atmosphere.
THANK YOU! i’ve been looking for a new series to get into and this is exactly what i’ve been looking for. i think i will start with sophie, but you’re making me want to play all of them. 😊
I have been on the fence about this series for months, but it's finally going onto my wishlist. Thank you for such a clear and comprehensive overview of the Atelier Series.
I just want Mana Khemia to come back.
Thank you so much! I've been wanting to play an Atelier even since I watched Escha & Logys anime but I never had a console, until this year. Got Atelier Sophie on this summer sale and I can't wait to get into it! (when I'm done with Persona 5)
thanks for making this. Atelier was always eye-catching with it's art and warm aesthetics, just overwhelming with its number of releases
Oh goodness thank you so much for this! I must've been seeing these games in the shops for easily 8 years or so now but I've never had the confidence to try because theres so many titles I didnt know where to start. So this is helping me finally have a try at this series~
Yay, i was waiting for this one ^^. I've played the Arland trilogy, the Dusk trilogy and the Mysterious trilogy, but I always wondered about the first half of the series, so thank you for your impressions, and really nice seeing you've liked the franchise ^^
I’m so glad you made this video. I played iris2 and I was confused about the newer games
I've been eyeing this series out of the corner of my eye for years now so this was super helpful to watch! Kudos for putting this together!
I'm happy that you unprivated your videos. I like coming back to them every few months.
Thanks for all the content you gave us over the years and good luck on your future endevours.
I quite liked the Arland trilogy, especially Totori and Meruru. They were really nice games.
Also really liked the Marie&Elie manga, which was published in German ages ago.
Fen Y hows the 4th arland game? I know it’s out on the switch.
Mana Khemia: Alchemists of Al-Revis is really the best Atelier game I've played. Best game with the best Pamela version.
Damn right!
I'm so glad you did a video on these games! I played the Dusk Sea game about a year and a half ago, and never really understood it. This really helped clear things up. Thank you for the amazing content as usual, I'll have to go back and play these again!
Bless you for liking this series. Being raised on the PS2, Azoth, Grand Phantasm, the two Mana Khemias and Ar Tonelico 2 for me were my funsie rpg games. It's real fun watching this and reliving fond childhood memories
Ah yes, the Atelier series. Most certainly a personal favorite jrpg series since I encountered it in 2013 with the vita version of Totori. That said though the games timed system clashed with my obsession with grinding which is probably the main reason I only have the Arland trilogy and a few others.
Also small bit of trivia for the less linguistic. If I recall correctly the word atelier is from the french language and as one could guess refers to a workshop.
It's just one of those moments were using a word from another language makes it more interesting, flowery, or poetic take your pick on which sounds more accurate.
Hidari has such an amazing art style, and so recognizable!
I'm happy you've at least made your previous content available, this is/was one of my favorite videos to share with friends for introducing them to the Atelier series and it sucked to see it go.
Thank you for reviewing my fav game series, I felled in love with Atelier series and playing them non stop since Arland trilogy, it's nice for you to share some info with older titles!
I really, REALLY like the art style of the Iris games. That alone makes me want to play them.
You know what's refreshing about this video?
1. No gimmicks, no over the top voices "HEY WHATS UP GANG ITS "
2. No begging for likes.
3. Straight up information
4. You can tell that she's really passionate about this series.
So you know what. I'll sub.
Actually, I'm just here coz I've been hearing a lot about Ryza and I don't know what the big deal is.
With the Marie game coming out as a remake I just wanted to come back and rewatch this video~
I love your voice and all the hard work you’ve put into this video. Keep it up!
My first game in the series was Mana Kehmia. I love Vayne and the story. The characters are solo good and enjoyable. I quickly played it a second time after beating it just to get Muppy's ending. It had me in tears I was laughing so hard. I was able to get it and the second game, but I still haven't beaten the second one. I have one of two of the other series, and this puts things into perspective for me. Now I know more about what to expect while playing the rest of the series.
With the sales starting I was thinking of dropping my "rawr so hardcore" games and play something comfy that needs tea and cookies to snack along. Cheers for the video!
Shogil agreed
Thank you for this video!
I remember seeing things about the Atelier games when Escha and Logy were first coming out. I did a bit of research then and was overwhelmed. Shallie caught my eye when they were announced and I remember reading articles about them until the game was released. If I was going to start a game I would start with Shallie, because it seems the most interesting to me. Both of the main characters just seem so different. I love the art style for these games.
Thank you so much for this information. I've loved this series for awhile since I've seen a few trailers and gameplay but I've never truly understood the structure of the installments or what they were truly like. I can't wait to start off with the dusk or mysterious installments.
Idk why but I own all of the atelier games!!!! *Rorona* is the best one to start with (PS3 era) since it's time limit is broken up over several missions. *Meruru* I found quite hard, but it does lay all it's cards on the table up front.
*Sophie* (PS4) has no time limit, which is great for beginners.
atelier iris 2 literally changed my life
itschello you too?
Still think the best part is the shop theam song lol
I like the camp song (Under the Tiny Roof).. It's very relaxing.. :D
Until Palaxius
THAN YOU FOR MAKING THIS. I've been eyeing the altelier series for a while but I've just never known where to start. So Thanks!
A truly outstanding video and basically everything I wanted to know about the series. I came to know of Atilier games a few weeks/months ago and wasn't sure if and when I should give them a try. Your Video really helped me out there.
Oh man I loved the mana khemia series and I didn't even realize it was part of the Atelier series. I'm tempted to give the aterlier games a try now if they play similarly
A someone who started this series with Atelier Annie: Alchemists of Sera Island, I appreciate this video so much since I really want to try some on Ps4~!
thank you so much for this video! i’ve been interested in this series for years, but never really knew where to dive in. many of these games are now available on the switch, so i hope to buy and experience one for myself soon!
I fell in love with this series from the Iris games and while I haven't finished all of them I've managed to keep buying them everytime they are released, something about them is just amazing and calming in the story and the alchemy! I haven't found another series quite like this thats for sure. Great video~
I was on Atlelier Sophie a few months ago but I dropped it because time limit was mentioned. Note that this was my first try on Atelier series and I hate time limit based games (this is all your fault FF14 Lightning Returns). But after watching your video, I think I will give it another go. Thank you for the video.
FF14? Wasn't it FF13?
There is no time limit in Atelier Sophie
Interesting... I can see how Gust really came into it’s style. I’ve only ever played the Ar Tonelico series, but after seeing this, alot of Ar Tonelico’s style (and the inclusion of it’s own somewhat-unnecessary “alchemy” system) makes sense. A focus on the party member’s day-to-day interactions, a magical whimsy hiding the harshness of the history of the world... fantastic setting flush with color and character? Check checkity check!
I wonder... do you have any experience with Ar Tonelico, ValkyrieAurora? I personally prefer it, if only for those songs...
I absolutely loved this video. Thanks for spreading the good word of the Atelier series, and you're definitely not alone in loving the Dusk series. Atelier Escha & Logy is my favorite in the series!
This is a great video. I’ve never heard of the series till now but I’m going to go buy it on switch this after noon. Keep up the awesome work. Your my new favorite RUclipsr.
I never knew about this game before this but thank you for making this video, I'm genuinely interested now because of this, great vid
Azd Exe in case you’re interested, Sophie used to livestream these games on twitch
As someone who has been enjoying the series for years, it's a good watch/listen. Glad I wasn't the only person getting steamed by the rorona time limits....
Also! You didn't mention atelier annie, which is a one-off title on the DS. It's...not great, so I don't blame you for ignoring it, but it at least should be mentioned.
Thank you for making this video public again. Wanted to get into the series now that it’s on sale but didn’t know which to get.
than you for reviewing my fav games of all times~ my first atelier game is atelier firis and my fav is actually meruru plus! nice to hear your reviewing my fav series keep up the good work!
I tried playing Marie with the english patch thats available but DANG they really just throw you into the game and tell you to git gud huh
I tried playing Marie via the recently translated patch and I don't know if I would call it easy? I mean your right that it doesn't hand-hold, but it also doesn't have a cushion like the later games where losing fights just means you need an extended break. Even the second area's slimes will do you in if you charge in soon as it's available. I loved playing it to see how Rorona relates a lot to it however (which was my first Atelier)
That said it was nice to hear about the second arc and the Mana Khemia games which I haven't tried yet. The atelier series needs more love!
Thank you for this video. I’ve been debating on getting into the series for some time now and this has given me a lot to consider.
You are amazing Sophie! I wanted to get play this series for a while but didn't know how to get in to the Atelier hell. Thank you for making this video and helping me gain more knowledge about this series, now if you excuse me I got to play all of the mystrious games :)
I'm very interested in this series after watching the trailer of Atelier Thighza
Me too
Ryza (among other things) is was brought me here
Where to start??
BARREL!!!
Best recurring gag ever
Vayne and the gang : BARREL!
I've needed this video every time I've browsed the Playstation store. Really glad you made it!
I started my Atelier journey with Annie on DS, which is interesting since its more a microcosm of Atelier than a full experience. There's apparently a whole trilogy on DS with Lise, Annie, and Lina but the states only got Annie.
Two months ago, I was wondering about getting into this series and this video popped literally a few hours later. It took me a long time to actually get around to posting this, but that's only because I've been Valkyrie-proofing my house, I swear.
Anyway, great video and thanks for making it, Valkyrie!
Thank you for unprivating your videos!
tbh I've been wanting to get into this series for a few years now and haven't been super successful, never getting far in the games I tried a while back but never really losing interest either so I mostly just appreciated it from a distance. You going into each game/sub-series in this video helped spark my interest again and maybe give me a better idea of how to go about it (also it's rad that you touched on the first five games as well), so thank you.
i am so glad, you talked about the time management in each entry, because i personally prefer a strict one. It just motivates me to give my best and i love to planning ahead. I play the series since the ps3 entries, so the time management was for me always a definite part of "atelier". When the newer entries began to aband this system, i parted with the series. But maybe i should give Firis a try. Or some of the older ones. Thanks for this video.
Almost a half an hour video? You spoil us Sophie
Be honest, you really like to say "Rorona"
Love your video , I started a couple months ago with Atelier Ryza and I loved the story telling component and the astethics, everything looks so colorful and cute , and currently im playing Firis and Sophie
I've been trying to get into this series for awhile. Atelier has always caught my eye with it's character design and fun looking gameplay but I can get pretty intimidated if a series has a lot of titles to choose from. Great video btw, it really helped me pick and choose which game/trilogy to start with. I'll probably get Atelier Ayesha! uwu
I only beat the two mana khemia games, i tried two or three other atelier games, but they didn't hook me.
Then again it was when i was still into Harry Potter and mana khemia kinda felt like a magic school simulator.
Great video, now i feel like getting a vita/ps3. I only played the iris trilogy and the two mana khemia games, even preordering the big box mana khemia 2. Mana khemia tbh is my favorite ps2 soundtrack, and favorite battle system of any jrpg ever.
Thank you for this video! I've been watching since the Nier: Automata and Drakengard Lore video, and since then, I was blown away and find these great to recommend to friends when I'm arguing about why these games are so good. Keep it up!
Oh! I might be misremembering, but back then I couldn’t find these videos anymore and was rly saddened. I just finished escha and logy recently and just reminisced over the firis ost. I’m glad to find these again!
Have you also played the Ar Tonelico games? They're also made by Gust.
Mana khemia was my first
i definitely want to check out this series now! thank you for breaking it down!!
Absolutely fantastic video!! I just today discovered the series through a random find of the first Iris game; Eternal Mana. I didn't know much about the series to be honest, but almost immediately after starting it up got hooked because of the gorgeous artwork and music. In a single day I've become an addict and I already just feel the need for more. I'm a really big RPG fan in general with my roots in Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy and I've discovered alot of different RPG's for different consoles over the years, but it's been a long time since I last found a game that captivated me as much as Atelier Iris: Eternal Mana have.
Hey, I only played Atelier Annie for the DS years ago and I was wondering if I missed something or if that one isn’t a real atelier game? These games sound cool and I actually have the systems to play them now, so I am excited to check more out!
I started with Annie, so was hoping for some nostalgia. I was kinda surprised to see one of the "kidnappers" from Annie in I think it was Iris.
Always amazed about your content. 10/10
Great lore, appreciate the work you put into this video. 👏
This is perfect. I've actually been interested in the franchise for a while now, but I didn't know where to start!
100k Subs,almost there...
So where do I get a metal arm and turn one of my brothers into a suit of armor?
Gat the Man Mana Khemia Al- Revis. It's even better. Your cat turned into your arm weapon thingy. Sorry only knew Mana Khemia
Well i dont know about brother but there is a book which is in a dolls body
This was honestly a very helpful video! I bought Atelier Totori Plus on my Vita back in 2013, but found the game to be too overwhelming and complex for me at the time, so I didn't play it much, even though the series still seemed to be enjoyable, and I did enjoy the basic gameplay and story concepts I experienced in Totori Plus. I think now that I'm more experienced with RPGs I'd be able to enjoy the series, and this video helped get me familiar with the other games, and also what to look forward to in them. In fact, I just ordered Atelier Lydie and Suelle because I knew of a great deal on it, so I've decided to take a chance on it.
This video made me start with Atelier Ayesha, I loved every single second of it, and now I'm finishing Escha and Logy. So thanks for introducing me and a lot more people to this fantastic franchise!
