The Atelier Mysterious Trilogy Deluxe Pack announced for Switch/PS4/Steam on April 22nd [Includes all DLC & new story content]
- Thread starter Geobros
- Start date
One day I'll get into this franchise. One day. It always seemed like the sort of thing I'd like but it also always seemed so expensive. 🤔
I enjoyed these on psnow but my internet is not stable enough so never went very far in them. I'm looking forward to that.
Why does Gust hate Atelier Iris so much? Pretty much everything else has been ported to hell and back but they gloss over the Atelier Iris trilogy like it never existed.

Yep. I would be so chuffed if they start going back and porting older entries. They deserve a wider audience.

The last of the series released on Nintendo Swotch on March 2018. The first two episodes never came to the console. So it is first time for a Nintendo Console to see those games release.

Pretty sure this will be released the same way as the other Deluxe packages, 40 bucks each or 90 for all. Also, the DX versions of this trilogy hasn't been released in Japan either yet afaik.
i always say this and then like i check back and it has 5+ new entries
For anyone reading the thread; this isn't even an exaggeration. We got *3* of 'em in 2019, and Ryza 2 just came out a week ago.
Are they all connected? Can you just start playing any of them or do you have to go in a certain order?
They're split into trilogies that are connected, but each trilogy is standalone. So you've got the "Arland" Trilogy (well, Quadrilogy now), the Dusk Trilogy, the Mysterious Trilogy, and Ryza 1+2 (and eventually 3).
As a general rule, I recommend to start by the first of any trilogy. In this case, you should start with Sophie: it's an easy enough game and a good introduction to the series.
man, that was really soon. i thought they'd wait a bit and make these for PS5 too seeing that the originals were already PS4 games.
with this one i'm not sure if i'll get it since i already have these and already beat all 3. maybe i'll dip later when they get a price drop to see the extra content.
(i still have my PS4 copy of Lydie & Suelle sealed since i got it for Switch originally and then got this one when it was like inder $20)
i do wonder if they'll have physical releases on the west or digital only like the previous 2 packs. if it's digital only, then i'll pass.

Honestly, I'm really curious about how they will handle Lydie & Suelle on Switch; the game was playable, but it was a bad port of the psvita/Ps4 version, the graphics really took a hit and it's a shame since they reached great results with both Lulua and Ryza. It would be cool if somehow they could make a graphical update for us Lydie buyers on Switch, but I hihgly doubt it. Also, Firis kinda struggled on ps4 too (Sophie ran at 60 fps, Firis at some unstable 30). It's cool tho that they can port Sophie and Firis on Switch, now the platform has all the most recent ones, and Firis is one of my favourite Atelier.
Long expected but Lydie DX was always the wild card as it'd be the one entry on all existing platforms. Most notably how they'd handle the Switch version of that as Lydie was their first in 2017 and is preeeetty rough. My hope is that they basically "redo" the port to match it much more closely with the PS4 version. Also Firis will be another intriguing one as that was the only other PS4-first entry then and most thought it'd be too big to port (it's open world IIRC). So Firis DX on Switch will be a nice look at how Lydie would look as if it were ported today maybe. Dunno. :P
Also... PLEASE dub Lydie this time. It's the one and only one of the 9 games in the three trilogies to be sub-only. They gotta spend some money to rehire the cast where possible and finish what they started

This is nice, but what I really want are ports of Gust's PS2 games. Iris trilogy, Mana Khemia 1&2, Ar tonelico, etc.
I've heard good things about the "Gust" games...
Don't know what they are at all, but hey, I've heard good things all the same!
Also Ar Tonelico Qoga is the only PS3 game by Gust not remastered yet, isn't it?
Edit: Nope, Nights of Azure is also missing. Also Blue Reflection if we're including PS4 and Vita games not on Switch yet, right?

Can I ask you why? Huge series with a big number of instalments are always daunting to get into.
Wait there was a Sophie dx?
Firis felt like a nothing game, lydie and suelle was alright, but Sophie was awesome!
Any idea whats in that chapter?

Ayesha has a good story hook, and the Dusk Trilogy is a fan favorite - while Ryza is arguably the most beginner friendly, as well as being modern.
I loved Sophie to death, loved Firis, and I've yet to finish Lydie and Suelle (I stopped, dunno wasn't clicking with me like the other two.)
I'll give this a miss.
Sophie DX is new.

worth noting that Sophie was a PS3 game originally (they just didn't localize that version). it's why it runs so smooth on PS4 already.
if the other 2 get improvements i'd consider the collection but it's hard to imagine they'll bother improving the graphics since the base console is the same (all previous trilogies were on weaker hardware). if they add speed up to all 3 games, that'd be another gamechanger.
NA tweet:
And I just realized; if Sophie's getting a new episode, won't they have to dub it? I hope they won't just be cheap and do the worst case and remove the dub. :/

At least after these they've sorta run out of PS3-era games to remaster and might delve into some of their back catalogue for remasters. Mana Khemia when?
(I know this is probably just wishful thinking and they'll probably do Nights of Azure next and then start re-re-remastering Atelier Arland for PS5/XBX/NS2).

Nice! Hopefully Lydie&Suelle doesn't run like trash on Switch this time.
Physical please.
The Arland trilogy never got one.

I can definitely see them removing the dub since Lydie and Suelle doesn't have one in the first place. If we're lucky, they're just going to leave the new content unvoiced, I'd be extremely surprised if we ever see any new dubbed Atelier content from KT.
Truly. I enjoy the series, but I'm always a couple of games behind.
Basically yeah. I remember when Rorona made a bit of a splash back on the PS3 and thinking I'd eventually get it. Fast forward and there's literally been 11 games since then lmao. Not like they're short games either. Given price and release frequency, it's kinda hard to get into the series tbh.
Really hope this gets a physical release. Would prefer not having to import it, but I'll do it again if I must. The last Atelier collection physical release was pretty dope. Everything on one cart with multiple languages. Even if it was "Asia" only.
Welp, didnt see the previous thread.
Nice that we are getting bonus content, but why Sophie of all of them?

With this pack, all of the PS3 and up Atelier games will be on switch. IMO, if you're curious about jumping in. I would go with Ryza next time it's on sale. That'll tell you if youd like the rest of the series.
They're similar to persona where they're self contained for the most part. So you don't need to play the whole series to know what's going on.
I think Ryza to Ryza 2 is probably the only one recently where you probably want to play the one prior lol.
considering that Ryza 1 has a bunch of unvoiced stuff in even japanese, i wouldn't be surprised if they just leave that new segment unvoiced and just add grunts at the start of each line.
Figures.
The mysterious series was the only English atelier games I had yet to play. I was hoping for switch ports of sophie and firis, but gave up a few months ago and played them both on the vita.
So of course they announce this 2 or 3 weeks after I complete firis.
Oh well, we'll see if they report lydie and suelle, since it seems from comments here that the original port was rough, though I did play firis on the vita which was really rough, so I doubt it would be worse than that.
Currently playing ryza 2 at the moment, which will leave lydie and suelle as the only one left to play.
Also echoing some other posters in the hope they turn to there ps2 ones next, as Iris 2 was the game that got me into the series.
