I watched a streamer play this whole game and I am so ready for it.

Japanese and importer impressions haven't been encouraging, but it's nice to see KT committed to bringing over almost everything. Surprised they didn't bother with Atelier Quest Board on mobile, given FE Heroes' success internationally.

Looking forward to this one. I guess I'll choose between PS4 and PC depending on port quality and whether NISA gets the rights to an LE.
Damn it, I wish I hadn't known about this

I want it.
So the gameplay's not that good? That's too bad if so, since I've really enjoyed some of the Atelier games they've put out.

DAMN IT where was this thread when I was refreshing the front page of Gaming Side before I clicked my damn post thread button?! XD
Not even a mention of digital for Vita. Did this happen for Nights of Azure/Yoru no Nai Kuni as well? Trying to recall.
Can we get importer impressions here?

I'd be willing to give this a try if they go dual audio, but tecmo has been shit about that anymore.
Game is just okay. Couldn't muster up the energy to finish it, even though I think I'm pretty close to the end.
Some shoddy fanservice too, which is kinda low for Gust.

Would they give even give this a dub?

I'm bummed they skipped on the Vita version, even though the English trophies popped up though....
I'll probably pass on it because there are just too many games on PS4 that want my attention and I'll probably never get to it with Destiny2 and Ni No Kuni 2 releasing in the fall/winter and DQ XI right around the corner.
Just too many games...

thats what im not expecting, since they skip on nights of azure. They seem to only bother with atelier now and are getting lazy there too

For a moment, I thought the other girl had no legs, and it looked creepy as hell.
I see Gust finally upgraded to PS3 level ground textures.Hmm, still not sure about this one..

It's definitely a pretty game. Even more so on the PS4 Pro.
But be forewarned, it is very barebones: repetitive gameplay, battle system is simple (can just power through everything without actually using the systems) lackluster story, and a lot of content also based in DLC.

Also disappointed at the lack of a Vita version, but I will likely buy this because Gust. Even though I feel their quality has slipped massively in recent years, they're still among my favourite devs and make some beautiful games.

This has the perfect premise to be like a girl version of persona(not to say girls can't play persona already obviously). It's gust tho I expected too much
It's KT, so I wouldn't count on that.

Bleh. It feels like the last time Gust had anything resembling a win was Atelier Sophie. What's going on over there?
If I were counting on it I wouldn't be hoping
I feel like they were in a steady upward trajectory in terms of quality... until K-T bought them.

Maybe I'll just wait to nab the artbook like I did for the Arland Trilogy of Atelier games. >_>
(Probably be an import in this game's case, one doubts they'll do a Limited Edition of note here)
Indeed. Wish they would just start outsourcing their PC versions, but then again, I'm sure they would find the worst partner to do it, like Other Ocean or High Voltage Software.If I were counting on it I wouldn't be hoping

Yeah, they're being stretched thin by Koei-Tecmo it feels. Honestly, I haven't disliked any Gust game... ever? But I haven't loved one since probably Ar no Surge. Last game I truly adored was Atelier Meruru.
Even stuff like Ar Tonelico 3, although frustrating, still felt like it had a lot of heart to it. Their latest games don't. That still makes them better than the majority of otaku devs, but it's a shame to see them slip.

Sadly no vita, but I guess I can just remote play or something.

Teenage high school underwear shots,towel shots, bath scenes,bit of yuri mixed in here and there.I was looking forward to this game, disappointed to hear about the fanservice
Question to people who already played it.
Without too much spoilers what kind of fanservice are we talking about?
It's gust

HYPE
Magical girl games are strangely low in amount, so this is a real treat. And I'm so glad KT is continuing these Gust PC releases too, as Gust's artists and 3D modelers are incredible and this game especially has this beautifully realistic environments with gorgeous 3D animesque models all in one. It'll be nice being able to play this at high res assuming KT allows it. As for the complaints about fanservice, I actually like fanservice, so its just more of a plus if you ask me.
Day one buy for sure. I just hope KT doesn't screw up the art assets somehow like they did for Atelier Sophie and Firis. They wound up being a tad blurry and lower res than the PS4 counterpart. Nights of Azure turned out fine though, so there's hope.
Sucks for anyone that wanted the Vita version though. I think I can understand why, but some people probably wanted the Vita version and its not fair to them to not localize it.
