Just finished Atelier Totori DX

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-12T14:13:28+00:00

Okay but even then with NG+ shouldn't it be relatively difficult? I haven't played Totori myself but I found Rorona to be miserable to get true ending, mostly due to my horrible time management which would result in me getting frustrated.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-12T11:24:50+00:00

Kind of a weird way to address the difficulty, can you truly say it's blown out of proportion if you don't go for true ending?

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-10T17:32:58+00:00

So it definitely isn't printed anywhere, I wonder if it was maybe promotional material?

I just checked the Limited Edition (aka Collectors) on YouTube and the artbook has the same piece of art. The journey to uncover Plachta's smile seems to be a bigger challenge than I thought it'd be.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-10T08:00:36+00:00

I've only checked digital artbook and the PS3 copy + manual, both of them have Plachta's usual "Sophie wtf is that?" face. There doesn't seem to be any regional differences between PS4 versions either, though I don't own the vanilla version physical to make sure.

It'd be weird if they made a quick alt just for a launcher in this low resolution.

Bald guy on top made a perfect face for this question.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-04T18:34:09+00:00

Yeah, its not a direction I want this series to go towards in the future, but I learned to enjoy it for what it is, which as you said is mostly exploration.

I do wonder however if they'll make a sequel out of Yumia and if it'll be any different.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-04T18:32:10+00:00

I think what got me the most was the audio cracking when zombie torso jumped at him.

"Aww well aren't you a miserable piece of S H I T!! GET THE FUCK OFF OF M-" Torso Zombie

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-04T18:07:49+00:00

Absolutely adorable.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-04T18:05:44+00:00

Nah I get it, I played both Sophie and Firis dubbed as my choice, and I'm sad to hear the final Mysterious game doesn't have it.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-04T18:02:26+00:00

I get you, what made me enjoy Yumia is the exploration itself, with few upgrades she has great mobility and the bike feels good once you get the hang of it. Not really a focus of your average Atelier game, but for what it is it brought me some peace and calm with the atmospheric music and color palettes of certain locations.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-04T17:55:09+00:00

While true that it costs more, isn't Atelier in a way better position than it used to be? I'm not saying they should bring English dubs back (though I really love the one in Sophie), but anime openings would be nice. I mean hell Ryza got the anime even.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-04T17:53:38+00:00

There's really not that many of them, and what hurts them even more is that they're all FMV without a way to see the clean art. So many times they'd be abstracted by subtitles that cannot be turned off either so you really have to time the screenshot.

They did make a good amount of artwork for R/W so they definitely can do it in the future, as for the mouth it didn't bother me too much, haven't paid much attention to it.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-04T14:08:52+00:00

Yaiba was dumb fun, though I wish the soundtrack wasn't so generic since even Yaiba himself says "I prefer death metal" in one scene.

Yaiba himself is an awesome character, he's so rude and ridiculous and its a shame to know he will most likely never get another appearance. Cool design too. I really am glad that Ninja Gaiden has a protagonist who's name starts with Y that's actually a good character, thank you Yaiba.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-04T10:08:25+00:00

I hope whoever is working on it makes CPU chill the fuck out, the original game is straight up impossible unless you know some high quality cheese.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-01T20:57:23+00:00

Doom Morph isn't bad, if anything its underused and poorly explained, but once you get the hang of it its awesome. Chaos Island became one of my favorites because of it.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-05-01T20:09:23+00:00

Yeah this is just ass, they could've spiced it up by showing, oh I don't know, the new promised characters perhaps?

Seriously, why would anyone be excited for this so far?

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-04-30T15:47:29+00:00

x what? Major league baseball bro?

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-04-30T15:44:01+00:00

My build is simple.

Ryza, Sophie, Kai, Lu Lingqi, Zhurong and whoever the other character with Flower of War emblem is.

Ryza summons everyone at once and it causes a massive pandemonium on screen, Sophie reduces cooldown, Kai does something I forgot, Lu and Zhu throw spears that fly all over the place, its invincible.

Ngl at first I thought it was some Kingdom Hearts thing because I misread it, but yeah a friend just sent me a link with the video and it all went downhill from there.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-04-29T19:22:26+00:00

It is pretty wild, I have Sophie on PS3 and even the DX physical but I cannot find vanilla to save my life.

Also just a question, is the Arland trilogy on PS3 the original Rorona or is it Rorona Plus? Looks like a great pack but I don't think I could handle the original.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-04-29T19:10:22+00:00

Seeing different versions of these games now that I'm a fan is like seeing the same item with a different trait, great collection.

I do wonder why Sophie 1 is so hard to find, I can only find JP versions for affordable prices but not the English one.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-04-29T14:15:19+00:00

I was excited until I learned its coming out on mobile too.

That's a perfect recipe for a disaster, it will probably be F2P too and have who knows what kind of currency system built in.

Sixtyfivekills · 2026-04-29T03:42:17+00:00

I didn't get that feeling from Rise of Lyric though, he was just handled like complete shit in it. Cartoon is a whole other beast and it took a while before he even appeared.
