This is the fourth game of the Arland series. One could easily get into the Atelier series as a whole with this as their first game. It has no time management so it's chill. Still, it's definitely true that you get so much more out of this game if you've played the Arland trilogy before playing this. Meeting all the characters again is always so much fun in any of them, and seeing how they've grown etc. Arland has so many great characters. Sadly, you don't get to meet them all again. Hagel and Iksel have been replaced by their apprentices, for example, which was a bit disappointing. And many others are only referenced in passing conversation like Cordelia. Some barely even get mentioned, and not even by name, like Gino. I liked him cuz he was always so honest even if it was offensive which was hilarious. I was hoping to learn how he's doing. I had also hoped to get Iksel pissed off again by beating him in a cooking contest again because that was always so funny, too. But alas. Would have been so good for nostalgia, yanno. Luckily, you do get to have Sterk around again, the best male side character in all of the Arland games, potentially, all Atelier games imo. Some of the new characters are fun too. Some are kind of boring. It's a bit of a mixed bag. But at least that means there's at least one or two that can be enjoyed, I think. Lulua is pretty boring, just a basic I am cute and happy type of girl. There's nothing unique about her. Her love for curry would be the only thing I feel, and that's not all that riveting. Everyone has a food pref. But even that isn't standing out so much in this game because everyone and their mother in this game seems to be very much into curry and eats it at every bend and turn other than Aurel.... Literally, every time they eat at the orphanage it's curry. Wot. Graphics wise, I don't enjoy the artstyle at all for the 3D models in this game. Their mouths look weird when they talk, no teeth and the way they were given 'lips' just makes it look worse. Their faces look too dead, with big empty soulless eyes, and their hair looks weird too. Especially on the females, it looks like it's wet as it is way too shiny and lacks volume, and is overly straight The edges are cut off straight too making it look unnatural/ugly. Long hair also often spasms around or glitches through their body parts. Even all of Atelier's older title has more appealing looking character models imo. I also have no idea why they decided to make the characters look up with their eyes so much to the point their pupils are nearly invisible, making them look really weird (especially happens with Sterk). It's just really weird and ugly. Furthermore, animation wise, it's mostly static. Characters do some basic emotes, and mostly stand around stationary during cutscenes. I expected a little more coming straight out of wrapping up the Dusk trilogy, as this was a somewhat newer title. But it's really low production value making me question the price of this game. It feels like too steep a price to me. While the game is fun and as an Arland and Atelier fan I feel it was worth my time, I did get it on sale and I am glad I did. Definitely wait for a sale or you might feel kinda cheated. Other than that, the game offers the same satisfying gameplay loop Atelier games are known for. Explore, gather, craft. You know the drill if you know Atelier.

Was fun but, finished the game in nintendo switch. Good crafting system and it has time too. Still my favorite atelier is still escha and logy. Overall very fun Gameplay : 7/10 Sound : 8/10 Art : 6/10 Character : 7/10 Note : this game can get expensive buy it on sale also recommended.

The weakest game in the Arland series, but that is not a mark against the game itself. It is a good JRPG with a robust combat system, large variety of dungeons, interesting story that does not excels and a robust crafting system. But for fans of past game, do not expect to find similar gameplay style here. The time management is now out the window, travelling cost time on the calendar, but the years passing does not matter. The recipe unlocking mechanism is also more skin to the mysterious series than the Arlands. But at least the characters and events are fun.

Fun gameplay and alchemy system so far. My only gripe is Koei locked Totori and Meruru behind season passes.
