Shallie was kind of yuri if your goggles were strong enough and it seems like Sophie and Plachta have subtext in the newest game. There's apparently no het in Sophie either.

From what I can gather, there should be enough for yuri fans to pair these two together but non-yuri fans will say they're "just friends". So not as obvious as TotoMimi in Meruru but gayer than the Dusk games.

I don't know how well E&L did but it did get an anime.

What, actually, can I do in these games, besides the gameplay (I see some combat)? What kind of character interaction does this feature? Fixed events and dialog?

Besides RPG combat the games involve item crafting (alchemy) and time and resource management. E.g. you go to a certain place in a certain time to find a certain ingredient and get home before it goes bad, make a thing that you got an order for before the deadline. Dialog events trigger when certain conditions are met. The games are kinda SoL-ey and not very linear.

Sophie was much harder than any atelier I have ever played. If you are counting stuff like optional bosses, the main story is just as easy as every atelier.

neither.
>>
>>2027751

So you mean bottom vs. top protag?

Didn't I hear somewhere that the newest Atelier has "no yuri"? Well I suppose that won't stop images appearing or whatever.

>>2027756

As long as it's not fake hard like the hardest boss of Escha to Logy. If you lose, you have to go through the dungeon again AND beat the 1m HP or so damage sponge before it, which is easy, but takes time. Add to that that the boss is a simply "damage rush before he acts" thing with a couple of "counters" that activate once he hits a certain HP, it was just shit. You essentially had to fight him several times until you know all the counters. Which again is annoying, as you have to waste like 15 minutes or so of time before you even CAN refight. God, that game was really not good.
That said, most Atelier games have super-bosses that are relatively hard. Totori+ was pretty nice as far as I remember. Well, it's generally still my favorite of the series. (as much as I hated the true ending)
>>
>>2027751
Since I'm a bottom myself, I self-insert as the bottom protagonist.
>>
>>2027751
But Mimi is top. She's one of the rare tsundere who is actually the top in their relationship. Whipped =/= bottom.
>>
>>2027839

April first is over. Mimi and top.. that's just silly. Especially with Totori being as mischievous as she is. She just teases Mimi into the ground. Perhaps even without wanting to. She is that kind of girl. The one who pulls the punches while smiling and then asking "wait, why are you crying?". Oh Totori. You can be so very very mean.

Like I said, Mimi is whipped. And it has nothing to do with who is being on top. Have you hever seen a mischievous wife who always smile gently but keeps her trying-to-act-tough husband on a leash without much effort?

Mimi doesn't strike me as a bottom, unlike the majority of stereotypical tsunderes. She's like an awkward, egoistic boy trying hard to impress a girl who doesn't give a shit about his bravado and just unknowingly embarrasses him with her friendliness instead.

Yes, except TotoMimi has far more canon support than either of those. Matter of degrees, you know.
>>
>>2027915

You think Mimi actually gets on top of Totori? That's just not gonna happen. Top means "aggressor" in a way. Before Mimi got herself together and actually goes at Totori, Totori is either asleep already or is the one who started. I doubt Mimi would do anything unless heavily encouraged by Totori (and still not without asking 15 times if it's really okay to touch her there, if it hurts, if she does it right, if it feels good and if god is still in this world)

I mean, I can't imagine it any other way. Sure, she is the more "physical" one when it comes to fighting, but that doesn't matter. It also doesn't matter if she is the "husband" or whatever in the relationship, the "dad" of the kid or whatever. She IS the bottom. Kinda like how Fate is the "dad" and Nanoha is the "mom" in a way in Nanoha. They have the same dynamic. Fate=bottom. Nanoha=top.
>>
Neither is a "top" or "bottom" you fucking faggots. Stop it with this shit.
>>
>>2027923
Yeah. This is yuri, so it's neko and tachi, right?
>>
>>2027921
"Physical" during fighting means shit. Most tsunderes are the more violent one in a pairing and regularly abuse their love interest. And if you pay attention to to haremshit at all, many of it has the girls being better fighter than the beta faggot protag who will dom them anyway.

So no, I based my impression on these two purely through their actual characteristics and interactions. Totori's easy confidence and calmness is of the domesticated variety rather than the badass one. Whereas Mimi, despite all of her spaghetti, is surprisingly very assertive, and is the one working harder on pushing her relationship with Totori forward (rainbow stone, anyone?). She's desperate about wanting Totori to look up to her with starry eyes, whereas Totori doesn't mind squealing at her if she succeeds in doing something cool. All of this is why I can't see Mimi being happy if she's not the one who does some kind of grand gestures/moves to impress her lady.
>>
>>2027930

Not really. Mimi is badass but whenever Totori is around she is like putty. She's the type of tsundere that tries to play it of cool but collapses when she's close to Totori. Totori is actually the more assertive one because she is actively trying to get closer to her. When they had a brief fight on the second game, it was Totori who actually tried to apologize while Mimi kept her distance to avoid conflict.

Then most of her events in the third game is the Mimi trying to belt out her feelings but can't because of her pride. The rainbow stone event would never happen if Meruru didn't push her, and she only found that out when Mimi accidentally drugged herself with a truth serum.
>>

Its definitely the gayest TotorixMimi part of the game. And Totori wasn't even in it!
>>
>>2028316
>Mimi is badass

No she's not. Both of them are simply just cute girls. Neither are badass nor is one them the "husband" in the relationship. They both initiate sex and they both take turns pleasuring each other. Neither is the lead or "top". Just two cute girl loving each other equally. It's really quite simple. Neither have experience so the first time they did it they both shyly and passionately went at it. I'm done with this shit. Top and bottom garbage is cancer. If you guys really like trying to force girls into shitty roles then go ahead but I'm done here.
>>

>Just two cute girl loving each other equally.
You should spoiler those filthy thoughts of yours.

>>2028464
I agree with what you're saying but Totori did originally hire Mimi as a bodyguard and she's quite strong game mechanics wise, she deserves to be called badass I think.

The game disagrees with you.

That does not mean that she is the "top" or something dumb like this - I agree that top/bottom shit is cancer.

I should've made this a Gust thread in general. Anyways, there's a box at the bottom of the survey to include comments and expectations for future Gust games. Say that you want more cute female protagonists and yuri in Atelier games as well as new IPs. They need to understand that nobody wants male protagonists and that there are yuri fans for their games.

On one side I hoped it would be more yuri-like, and they being sisters makes the chances low. On the other side, cool onee-san doting her imouto is pretty nice.

We don't know, it could be 'heavily implied yuri' like Totori/Meruru or a hetfest like Eschatology. The most probably option is a "no romance at all" though. like the majority of the Atelier games.

>>2059007
Usually subtext and "strong friendship" at best. We still don't know a lot about Firis though. We'll see how things looks once they start introducing more of the cast.

>Until now, we had a loop where you go from the base town to the collection grounds, collect materials, return to town, and do syntheses, but since you’re steadily moving towards the next location this time, you’ll need to think about what to carry on your journey to the next town, including what materials to collected on the outskirts of town and what you synthesize

I'm not sure exactly how it'll work but I think there's going to be ateliers in towns that you use temporarily or something. I don't think you're going to stay in her home town and always use the same atelier. I don't know Japanese though so I don't know what it says in that scan. I see where it says "atelier" though and points to that picture.

I usually like this artist but I'm really disappointed with this. It's way too early to pair these two. If I knew Japanese I'd tell them this directly but unfortunately I can't. I really hope Firis avoids this pairing and instead has another girl for her to be yuri with. I think Liane is going to be more like Ceci was to Totori. Not the yuri interest but just a loving older sister. Please don't go the Liane route, Gust. I want another cute 15 year old that is the same height as Firis.

She even has von in her name. From the characters we know of so far, she seems like she could be the "Mimi" of the game. Liane is Ceci and the serious sword guy is Sterk. I'm not the only one seeing similarities between this and Totori, right? I'm much more okay with Ilmeria and Firis together.

It's just you but I wish this was true. It would be great if Firis was a little flatter.

How yuri are these games? And by yuri i dont mean its basic definition but like touchy feely, but not really super lewd but its obvious they love eachother based on enough evidence to support it, such as them going out of their way to express their love for one or another.

I don't think so, the best Mimi x Totori moments and the best Meruru x Keina moments are just events, not endings.

If I remember right, there was only one yuri ending, and it was shit if you ship Meruru/Keina and Totori/Mimi.

I read her bio on Gematsu, and its says she is child and honest, that's totally different from Mimi though.

I know it doesn't mean much, but it gives hope at least, They are clearly trying to pair them together or at least baiting yurifags, even in non promo art stuff >>2068766.
Also, don't remember any other Atelier with promo art this gay, it also comes after the success of Yuro no Nai Kuni.

We can only hope....

I am sure by now some people put in plenty of time with Sophie. So how is it? Is it back to the glory days of Meruru or is it another Shallie and Eschatology?

Consensus elsewhere seems mixed.
>>
>>2068535
>>2068539
I don't get why so many people think Totori and Mimi are the flagship couple. It's pretty obvious that Mimi is gay for Totori in Meruru's game but Totori always seemed ambiguous about it. At best, even after two games, they seem like "work in progress".

On the other hand, Meruru and Keina are practically a ring and a wedding vow away from officially becoming a married couple. They also had plenty of cute scenes where they showed affection to each other.

I can only speak for myself, but I liked Totori and Mimi better because they started off as complete strangers, roughly equals (technically Mimi holding higher social status, but not in any way she could use against Totori). By contrast, Keina is Meruru's subordinate basically, her maidservant, and I just personally find that dynamic more boring.

Are you new to the concept of subtext? I like Meruru and Keina too and I honestly do wish they got more support but TotoMimi are just so damn cute together. They're one of the best pairings in general when it comes to all games, anime, and manga. Also, go re-watch the scene below. It's definitely not one sided and it's no surprise that they're the most popular yuri pairing this series has.

I think someone mentioned a while back after the original release that Sophie can win a date with the barmaid, albeit there's nothing really to it.
>>
>>2073510
>but Totori always seemed ambiguous about it

But Totori just have way more self control than Mimi.
I might be reading too much into it, but there's an event in Meruru where Esty is all worked up that her friend was going to marry with a guy.
Meruru says she doesn't understand why it's so important to marry a man, and Totori says that she'll understand it when she's older.
She then asks if Totori is like that, to what she answer something like:
"Well...some people are different", looking kinda embarrassed.

Meruru/Keina is my favorite couple too, since both tell directly to each other that they want to be together forever.

This, as well as other problems with their loca team, has already been pointed out multiple times in /u/. If you can speak Japanese, just pick up the game in Japanese. You'll be far happier that way.

>By contrast, Keina is Meruru's subordinate basically, her maidservant

But Meruru never treats Keina as her subordinate and Keina will always follow Meruru regardless. As a matter of fact, Keina was no longer obligated to serve Meruru after she moved out of the castle in the beginning of the game. Keina continued to visit Meruru because she can't live without her.

Also, in one of my favorite event, it showed that Keina is born with godly luck but she considered that meeting Meruru was her greatest blessing. That's the kind of love and devotion that even yuri haters can't deny.

I do agree that Mimi adorable, but Keina is a rare beauty that can pull off the short hair look. She also hides amazing figure under that loose dress. Which is some thing *ahem* Mimi doesn't have.

Also, I had this one gorgeous pic of Keina in lounge dress but I lost it when my previous PC died and can't find it anymore. So this one will do for now.

Oh I do know subtext. I live for that stuff. I've seen that scene plenty of times.

Looking at my previous post, it probably sounded like I don't have a high opinion of Toto/Mimi, but that's not the case at all. I do like them a lot, but they were still, the kind of pairings that still leave leeway for yuri deniers to give out the tired "they're just friends" arguments. Personally, that doesn't really bother me. Those types of people probably watched too many harem shows and turned into dense fools themselves like those harem protagonists. One has to be amazingly blind to see something like what >>2074073
mentioned and not think Totori and Mimi have amazingly cute dynamics.

As a matter of fact, when I started to play Meruru, what I was looking forward to most was to see more of Totori and Mimi. I just hoped this new protagonist girl had at least some hint of yuriness to go along with it.

Then I was floored by how amazing Meruru and Keina's relationship was. There's not a single doubt that they are destined lovers who are already together and established since long ago. Sorry, but I still love TotoMimi, but Meruru and Keina were already in another level.

I remember reading one yuri hater's complaint about this game. His only complaint was "it was too lesbian". I took that as a positive thing. That means this game didn't leave much room for them to shoe-horn in "they're just good friends" argument.

>Sorry, but I still love TotoMimi, but Meruru and Keina were already in another level.

Nah, they're actually below TotoMimi by quite a bit. Both in ship quality and canonity. Still a good couple, of course, but they just don't play in the same ballpark. You can easily dismiss Meruru/Keine as just friends or faithful servant/master (That is what the pairing is actually modelled after, it just happens to be really shippable for yuri fans, too, just like Sam/Frodo for yaoi fans), while it's impossible to do this with TotoMimi without being fully retarded and flat out ignoring canon.

>>2074139
>Which is some thing *ahem* Mimi doesn't have.

Extremely debatable.
>>
>>2074181
You forget the most obvious one. Meruru is always saying that Keina is like a sister to her. She even says that she's envious of Totori and Mimi relationship, because she has no one like that.

Keina on the other side give hints that she would like to have something more with Meruru, like the interestadual she has in the yuri fantasy that Filly builds about her and Meruru.

That kinda looks like TotoMimi, actually. But while Totori is just reserved (and a little sadistic sometimes), Meruru is just way dense. Probably more dense than Rorona.

Anyway, Meruru x Keina is my favorite ship too. I wish it was more popular.

Just finished it a moment ago so I can finally post some thoughts on it.

First off, there's no hetero subtext. That being said, there's about an even amount of guys and girls so be prepared for Sophie interacting and being friendly with both. As for yuri subtext, I could see some between Sophie and Plachta. The better scenes with them don't come until later though and I should also mention that Plachta gets her doll form half way through the game. Several characters do comment on how close they are too. The strongest subtext comes from the ending CG that has Sophie and Plachta holding hands and blushing. It's a cute scene and the music makes it even better. The game still isn't as yuri as Meruru but I still think it's very yuri-friendly overall. You will need goggles though but they don't need to be that thick. I'm not sure how the anon above couldn't even squint to see it. Don't go into this game with high expectations of nonstop yuri though.

The game itself is very good too. The combat, alchemy, and soundtrack all deliver and it's one of the few tasteful JRPG series in my opinion. From that image of Ilmeria licking Firis's cheek, the next game may be even more yuri.
>>
When can we expect a Shallie Plus localization announcement? I sold my PS3 when I was in the middle of the game, so never managed to finish it.

Also, Totori Plus is on sale right now.
>>
>Witch's Tea Party
Most satisfying ending out of all games ever. Too bad it's not the true one but I'm pretty sure Alchemist can lead to the same point eventually because Astrid.
Don't get why cooling the volcano is not a requirement for most endings, though.

Anyway, since I'm moving onto Dusk (not yet, actually, but NG+ shouldn't take much time), and it brings down the yuri level by a whole lot, I'm wandering, is there anything worthwhile in E&L to suppress the disappointment?
>>
>>2083668
>is there anything worthwhile in E&L to suppress the disappointment?
Yuri worthwhile? not really, it is just heavy subtext between Escha and Logy.
That said, even though I wanted to hate Logy, I couldn't, he is a great character.
>>
>>2083770
>not really
That actually really sucks.
>That said, even though I wanted to hate Logy, I couldn't, he is a great character.
It's not the case of likeability, just that his existence is out of place, gets in the way. To add, while I did like Sterk and Rufus, Logy doesn't seem like a character I could possibly like like. But we'll see.
Can I get the true ending in one run, at least?

Ayesha is somewhat neutral overall. No yuri but not a ton of hetero either. There are some characters that are clearly straight in it though. I think some people pair Ayesha with Keith but I'm not sure there was much behind that. I like Ayesha with Tanya and Nio with Wilbell. Great game in general and second best Dusk game.

E&L was definitely hetero. You can still enjoy characters like Wilbell and Nio for example since they never do anything that indicates that they're straight though. You still need to just get through it if you intend on playing the full Dusk trilogy. It's still a very tasteful game and it's not that bad but I hope they never go back to male MCs. Buy it used though and don't give Gust money for it. It's true that Logy isn't a bad guy or anything but I definitely don't like him. Atelier games can have guys in them but the girls should always be the majority and focus.

Shallie is actually my favorite Dusk game. I like the combat the most and it was the yuri-est in my opinion. There was zero hetero in it other than one guy who likes Linca7 as well Escha and Logy. On the other hand, I know I'm pretty much alone on this but I still think it's very possible to pair the Shallies together. An OT3 with them and Miruca is good as well. Overall, the game had more females in it too and you get lots of Miruca and Wilbell events early on if you pick Lotte. I really liked this aspect of it. I don't know why it gets hate but Shallie is one of my favorite Atelier games along with Meruru, Totori, and Sophie. Meruru is still my favorite though. Of course, I've only played the PS3 version so I don't know if they did anything to ruin the game in the Plus version. I'm assuming there's some new EschaLogy events since Logy returns in it but hopefully they didn't do anything to the Shallies, Miruca, or Wilbell.

The games come in trilogies, Rorona, Totori and Meruru are the Arland trilogy.
Ayesha, Escha and Shallie are the the Dusk trology.
Sophie and the just announced Firis are the newest trilogy.

The gayest trilogy is Arland, and the gayest game is Atelier Meruru, so I'd recommend you to start with Atelier Rorona Plus, so you can start the gayest trilogy from the beginning.

Sophie and Plachta are returning and travel together. Apparently they felt the need to have skinny Oskar travel with them as well.

More new glorious TotoMimi.

>>2092166
I like to imagine that when her soul entered the doll body it sort of "filled out the finer details" and magically made it soft and human-like. The material to make her body was alchemy clay which in my mind is magical clay that can turn into anything. She can eat and drink stuff so that means her body needs to be fairly human. She has a sense of touch and feeling too since she makes remarks about not liking water. If Gust really wanted to make me believe she wasn't soft and fleshy then they could've made her have doll joints as well as being unable to eat.

Therefore she's capably of receiving and giving cunnilingus and engaging in yuri sex with Sophie.

Please, if you argue like that, Totori and Meruru also don't have any yuri content. People here who play the series don't exactly expect downright "Oh yes, she is my lover, we have hot sex every night and it feels really good. What of it?" reactions.

Obviously not, but we do have a precedent of a character who clearly does like someone as more than a friend and shows it (and flat out admits to it under the influence of truth serum) so let's not pretend people are demanding on-screen dollfucking or anything. This is /u/ though, so enjoy your goggles.

Gust will be announcing two more titles (next one is 8/4) as part of something called Bishoujo Matsuri.

http://social.gust.co.jp/pc/event/gfes/portal

I've seen speculation ranging from Atelier Musou to a new Ar Tomelico.
>>
>>2106127
What about a new IP, I remember them saying they were working on a totally new IP sometime ago.
>>
http://social.gust.co.jp/shiroyuri/
No details, just a list of main staff as well as a line about a “story played by the new moon, interlaced with love, love, and love.”
Also if the URL shows the title... Shiroyuri?

Guessing Nights of Azure sequel

Just Gust screwing up het ships again.

Seriously, Escha x Logy fans are gonna be furious.
>>
>>2113310
Just like Rorona x Sterk shippers did.
>>
>>2113316
What they did to Rorona was a little messed up considering how hard they pushed Rorona/Stern in the previous game. I love lolis though, so I was fine with it.
>>
>>2113324
>Implying they haven't pushed Logy x Escha hard enough
Anyway, Escha was my least favorite Atelier protagonist, she will probably improve as a loli.
>>
>>2113334
>implying
I don't remember mentioning anything about Logy or Escha.
>>
>>2113309
They're not even the same characters, the shippers can keep shipping the original ones.
If anything, I feel more screwed over. How about not fucking including them at all instead? What are they even doing there? We have Pamela already.
>>2113324
I don't mind lolis, and turning Rorona into one wasn't that bad of an idea. Pretty unexpected, yet not surprising considering who caused that.
>>
>>2113348
They are still mad, just go to read Gematsu comments.

Loli Rorona was also the cutest thing ever, and it backfiring on Astrid because of how much she dislikes children was hilarious to me.

Sure, but that's not how shippers work. They'll see it as a failure to have more shipping fuel in their moments. You could say the same about Sterk x Rorona because she still will be back to her old age. But still, they lost an entire game where could be more moment with the two of them.

Just think how /u/ would react if they bring Totori and Mimi back in some way that kills any chance of subtext between them.
>>
>>2113387
>You could say the same about Sterk x Rorona because she still will be back to her old age
That's only because they added it in the Plus version though. It was kind of fucked that she just stayed a loli originally.

>>
>>2113230
I don't know how I feel about this. I kind of just wish they never had these two in this series in the first place and just kept them in Dusk. I'm a fan of yuri between two loli so I'm glad three new loli were introduced but they'll still probably make Escha straight for Logy. You know, I was getting really annoyed with the lack of flat girls in the game and I had this bad feeling that Gust would finally introduce more flat girls or loli and make them the obligatory straight ones. I could easily see Escha being all like "I wanna marry Logy when I grow up!" or some shit like that. On the other hand, she has a childhood friend so maybe there would be a chance for loli yuri? I doubt it though since loli yuri as well as flat x flat yuri is a difficult concept for people to understand. I really needs scans of the two other loli. I'm going to be pissed if one of them is an "oppai" loli, Gust.

New scans. The loli look cute but we still don't know much about them. It would be amazing if they somehow could get paired together. Also, another male party member that we all wanted was introduced. I can't read Japanese but it looks like he's probably playable.

http://gematsu.com/2016/08/gust-opens-beautiful-girls-festival-project-3-teaser-website

Also we got the first details on the third game that Gust is making. Seems like a shitty self-insert dating game but I could be wrong. We'll hear more about the "shiroyuri" game on the 18th so let's stay hopeful for that.

Probably something to do with that website having a "what is your fetish" test.

We may get more like Nights of Azure, but to balance things out we may get more like Ar Tonelico or Ciel Nosurge

I just get that feeling. I really hope I'm wrong though.

It could be that this test is just a creative teaser and has nothing to do with the game's theme.

I just care about SophiePlachta. That's the main thing they must not mess up.
>>
I know people say Sophie doesn't have a lot of subtext. But does it at least avoid stupid scenes like Ayesha?

There's at least one scene with each girl saying they want to find a husband. At least to girls saying they'll quit their job to marry and get pregnant. And a lot of scene just to say two girls can't be together. Not even as a joke like most games do, just a "fuck you" for yuri.

I wonder what the hell happenned. That game is the entire oposite of Arland series. So much that I don't even care much about the rest of Dusk.
>>
>>2136699
Atellier was never a yuri series and in fact all canon relations are het, with some games' stories revolving around them, so it isn't anything new.
>>
>>2136701
I'm talking more about the tone of serie and characters, though. Arland had a lot of cool girls. Even Esty who's always looking for a husband still takes her job very seriously and is respected because of that. Almost girl in Ayesha seems to think being a wife and mother is more important than everything.

Meruru, Totori and Rorona would at times even seek to be a warrior/adventurer. Ayesha gets offended everytime someone says she's strong, saying that's not how a girl should be.

Even on the yuri side. Arland did tease it a lot, and never actually tried to fully deny it. Still, Aeysha has a entire scene between her and Regina saying that's really impossible that two girls could be together.

There's not really het canon in Arland either. Most teasing, just like yuri. But that's another thing.
>>
>>2136699
That's because it's Dusk. Shallie is fine though so you can play that without worry. But yeah, Arland is where the main yuri came from and Sophie is better than Dusk too.

And yes, Sophie doesn't have any het or yuri-denying scenes. The main yuri scene in Sophie comes at the very end though.

>>2136701
>all canon relations
>all

I've only played from Rorona onwards so I don't care about any of the older ones. TotoMimi is definitely canon though.
>>
>>2136705
That's good. I might buy Sophie next and let the rest of Dusk for later. Who knows if they'll ever bring Shallie Plus now that they already announced Firis before it.

I'm kinda happy that Arland is their best selling series and that Dusk sold bad, actually.

The best part is their best selling games were Meruru and NoA, the yuriest of Gust games.
>>
>>2136704
The Dusk Trilogy was pretty bad for yuri in general, though Shallie was alright. Don't forget the series started out as being about frail girls needing handsome strong bodyguards to go outside and they thought it needed male protagonists to focus more on adventure. The series has really moved forward.

But still, even in Rorona you still have Cory getting moist for the king when she's supposed to. Be tsundere for Rorona.

What I saw of the promo art with Firis and Ilmaria wasn't being shy about the yuri, though.
