If you needed any more more proofs that retardera is pure evil - now they are attacking Atelier, because everything beautiful is haram in their eyes.

That design is fucking awful though.
it's legit looks gross. i love ass and tits as much as the other guy, but the beauty lies in the proportion. how each part complement each other, the subtle, soft lines that made up woman's curves and shape. it's like pizza. i love me some pizza, i love cheese and pepperoni, but it would be gross to have a pizza with 1kg or cheese and tons of pepperoni stacked into the pie without any consideration of its proportion.

From all 4 pictures only her butt on last one looks really off and after watching some videos i think even this is just part of her weird costume.

I mean if Ar Tonelico is generic then the Arlier is more so.

And localization of the 2nd game was butchered to get as much as innuedo as possible by NISA.

My attraction to the series tho is the Hymnos. I find a lot of them very enjoyable. Even Ar Tonelico 3 with its not so good combat has good hymnos.

WSJ reporter says the number is from Koei Tecmo.

(Also I think digital sales are more larger in games for dedicated ("otaku") gamers.)

Koei Tecmo's earning release is few weeks away anyway, we will see public announcement then.

Don't also forget the fact that when Rorona released on PS3 in 2009, there were 3 million PS3s sold in Japan. Today PS4 sold 8,4 million and Switch 9,1 million in Japan.

has no time management
Time Management has been on and off as an Atelier feature recently (unfortunately, since the ones without time limits tend to suck)

AND no magical girl style...
Magical Girl style is a Kishida Mel thing. Outside of his Arland Trilogy the rest of the Atelier girls (and this is a series that has like 15 something games already) tend to have pretty down to earth outfits.

whats left of Atelier then, just some crafting?
I mean yeah, that's supposed to be the big selling point of Atelier.

Rorona had more down to earth average anime fantasy design.

Don't you know that Japanese girls all looks like that?

I know because I've watched lot of animes.



Yeah if anything the old Atelier has more "realistic proportions", all things considered.
