I was pleasantly surprised by this series. Started with Sophie and have played Firis and currently playing Lydie and Suelle. They’re a nice change of pace from heavy save the world rpgs and I’m looking forward to continuing the series and am very excited for Sophie2.
Watching the previous videos y'all released separately on this series is why I started playing Atelier. And since Ayesha was my first, it's currently my sentimental favorite; so thanks for shouting it out Irene!!!
I finally played my first Atelier game (Escha and Logy) earlier this year. It was such a chill, relaxing experience. I’ll try another one sometime soon.
I'm still trying to decide which atelier game to buy for the nintendo switch, I haven't really played another atelier game since i finished atelier iris 2 and 3 on the PS2 years ago.
Absolutely loved Lulua! It was my first and favorite Atelier game so far. It literally got me interested in the series. I havent played a lot of them yet (Firis, Sophie, Ayesha, and halfway through Escha and Logy) but I still want to play through a good chunk of them. Thanks to this list I have a few more I want to try and play lol.
Thanks for this list, i played mana khemia and i found the concept interesting, easily got in my favs games of this year without a doubt, so i'll check some atelier games!
10. Atelier Rorona: The Alchemist of Arland DX 9. Atelier Ayesha: The Alchemist of Dusk DX 8. Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky DX 7.

I broke down and bought the rest of the Atelier games I don't already own on the Switch. They are currently on sale in the Eshop for another day. ❤
@@finallyjeremy8217 I’ve beaten Rorona on the Vita and I played Escha on PlayStation Now (but my Internet was too slow to play it). I also have been playing the mobile game for a little over a month. I know they’re games for me but they’ve always been too expensive to buy each separately.
Who is this big dragon lookin dood in Atelier Iris 2?! Is he a permanent party member?! I’m looking into this game! Thanks to both Erick and Ircha for an AWESOME collab! SEE YOU NEXT TIME!🤘🏼
Always been one of my favorite series, ever since the original Iris. My personal favorite is the Dusk trilogy but I love them all... except maybe Firis. It's not bad but just a mess. Newcomers should definitely play Lulua and Ryza 1 or 2, although that will spoil you and make it slightly more difficult to go back and play the older games, especially the time limited ones.
I'm actually stuck in rorona plus because of this. The after story content is unbeatable for me because I always run out of time lol. As my first atelier game it will always be special but it's not my favorite when compared to the others. I'm actually stuck in the final dungeon of atelier escha and logy plus too. I'm near the end of totori but a boss monster always kills my party and I want to get the good ending so I'm hoping to finish it soon. It's a good series but the only one I've technically completed the original story for is rorona.
@@yunogasai1338 The only one I ever was able to do all side content and post story is Totori. The others I can never get enough time, haha. The next Atelier coming is Sophie 2 next year so that will be interesting!
@@sorv5790 I really love totori so I definitely want to complete it. I wouldn't mind playing it again. I guess I like the adventurer aspect and Totori's determination to find her mother.
@@Chelaxim Browsed a handful of screenshots for all of 'em. Looking forward to 'em, but will probably start with the Arland Trilogy since my Vita needs space. Heh.
Thanks for this! If anyone has PS Now, that service features 4 Atelier games. Currently the Dusk Trilogy and Rorona Plus, but the lineup might change in a few months. I started Atelier Ayesha and it is indeed very charming and fun. I also enjoy the sole DS game we got in the west, Atelier Annie - mainly for the amusing interactions that Annie has with her tutor and others on the island she is sent to.
I've enjoyed basically all modern Atelier games (except Nelke) but Escha and Logy is the only game where the story and dialogs have impressed me. I even think that the part in Awin's Sidestory when reaching the edge of the world is the best written scene in the whole series.
@@Riee138 Also,Landon didn't mention that Escha and Logy is the only atelier game to get an anime adaptation (that I know of) and one of if not the biggest and most diverse cast of characters in the franchise.
@@fyrflyr2378 True. And they even reused the protagonists in another series (mysterious trilogy) - which I personally really disliked especially because they did not even try give a backstory for their appearance...
Awesome list. I pretty much agree with it (although I have not played every game yet). The only thing that's holding me back a bit from playing the older games is that time limit. I like to take my time with games doing lots of side quests, and I don't like to be pushed to do things within a certain amount of time and have to drop side quest because I am running out of time. Anyway - I really got "into" the Atelier games because I picked one up (Rorona) because I was waiting for Trails of Cold Steel II to drop on the PC and wanted to "fill up" some time. To my surprise I was immediately hooked up on these series and now almost own every one that's released on the PC. I really love them because of the (mostly) lighthearted story and nice gameplay. And of course the alchemy! By the way very nice collab with Ircha Gaming. I like both channels, so it's nice to see both opinions merged.
do you happen to do alchmy and material collecting for four hours without you knowing, thats basically what happen to me sometime with lydie and suelle lol...
@@charlestrudel8308 Well - After the first hours in Atelier Rorona I learned the importance of being moderate. After that you most times get a appointment, request or side-quest that let you search for specific materials. After (and during) gathering these, I pick up interesting stuff or stuff that's scare while dropping stuff that I already have tons of. That way you do not need hours of collecting materials, and makes things a lot more enjoyable.
@@joshuaward7222 Sweet, I’m like 20 min into it. It’s gorgeous and has a very peppy happy soundtrack. I think it’s going to be a very carefree no stress game. Hope you enjoy it. If you’re on a PS all the games are on sale now too.
I'm almost done playing sophie. It's probably one of the more relaxing games in the series. I wonder if I should play the other two games in the mysterious trilogy before I play sophie 2?
I need to continue with my playtrough of the series. It's just that there have been so many good games coming out lately that I couldn't make time for it.
Atelier Iris was my introduction to the Atelier series and I really loved that game. I'm currently playing Atelier Sophie 2 and really enjoying it. I'm planning to get Ryza 2 and 3 at some point.
So glad to hear someone talk about iris 2, which in my opinion did everything that modern atelier games have done well too. Two protagonist, amazingly connected with eachothers, epic world and story but with cute slice of life moments. Hope it gets a remake or a continuation soon.
I have yet to play meruru but I own it so I'm prepared. I just want to finish atelier totori first. I love the drawn art in the arland series. It's got a relaxed look despite the time stuff lol.
@@Pimpjira87 Agree, i don't remeber one single time that Erick had talked about Iris 3. Maybe he doesn't like it that much as Iris 2. For me, Iris 3 is the best of the trilogy, mainly by its battle and alchemy system, both incredible and still updated.
I'm in the middle of the original atelier iris. I'm hoping to get 2 and 3 soon but they're a bit expensive. I wish they had ports to modern consoles at least. That's how I was able to finally play grandia.
I started the series with Ayesha 3 months ago, now I'm playing E&L and man this series is great. I'm not so greed to want play them all, but at least I'm gonna play Dusk and Arland series
Excelente video!!! Los felicito!! 🏆 Me he hecho muy fan de ambos canales .....y ustedes me han ayudado mucho a decidirme a jugar la saga Atelier ....muchas gracias por este excelente video!! 🏆
Atelier Iris was my first entry so its pretty much my favorite because its closer to the traditional JRPG setting. That being being said, Ayesha is my favorite of the more mainline.
I playe Iris 1 and 2 back on the ps2 during my must play all JRPG phase, and then sort of missed the entire series till Ryza 1... OMG how did I miss the rest of this? I suspect the time limit turned me off the games, and I never came back.
Atelier Iris 1, 2 and 3 were my first Atelier games and I loved playing them. I'm currently trying to get back into the world of Atelier and I'm looking around on which of the games I'm going to jump into. Don't remember which ones that are on Ps Plus.
Curious to see how this goes. I love the Atelier series, starting with Rorona on PS3. Only made it through 9 so far, a bit short of making my own top 10. My personal favorites are Escha & Logy, Totori, and Ryza 1. Weakest for me are Firis, Sophie, and Ayesha.
No Mana Khemia 1&2 here. I can understand that they are not "atelier game name", but these games are so good. Since the PS3 transition I have a lot of difficulties with Atelier games, because it's more about the fan service and less good story/characters. But I would really like to have the Iris Trilogy and Mana Khemia 1&2 on modern platform. Great video. 😁
I picked up Eternal Mana in a bargain bin for 5 bucks back in 2009, it was the first game I ever played that had both English and Japanese dub choices.
I just got into the games and started with Rorona. It’s probably not the best one to begin with as a beginner of the franchise, at least that’s what I hear, but I still enjoy it a lot, but I just couldn’t prevent myself from starting to the older available ones I at least can play on PS4. Don’t have a PS2 anymore, so I just started with the oldest of the DX releases I could play. :) I’m curious about every other one too.
Atelier Ryza 2 is easily the best in the entire franchise. Ryza one and Lulua at one point had a case to be labeled the best as well. That only makes my hype for Sophie 2 multiply lol.
Sorry, but I can't agree Ryza being so high. I do think the alchemy is an improvement, but its male characters, battle mechanics and ESPECIALLY THE SOUNDTRACK are all quite pitiful. I can't comment on the other Dusk games. Also, people should note that Ayesha's time limits will ruin your dreams of 100%ing the game.
Damn, after seeing this collab I regret I don't have a PS3. I didn't play any of the modern Atelier games, but now I want :) Played the entire Iris series and both Mana Khemias on my PS2 thanks to the friend's recommendation. All of them are awesome games. But the only one I managed to actually complete (though I got only Nikki's ending) was Mana Khemia: The Alchemists of Al-Revis.
its indeed a big thing. Also, dont be suprise if you just think about playing for a bit both 4 hours later, you see that you have played way more than you thought you would... its games where its easy to be lost in trying to make the perfect explosive item or weapon... lol.
My first atelier game is atelier annie and i really love the alchemist and slice of life story from this series, and then i jumped to ryza 2 and it was really amazing. currently i'am playing the mistery trilogy and sophie is my fav so far also she is really best girl XD cant wait for sophie 2
I found escha and logy to be a little more lenient on the time stuff especially when compared to the Arland trilogy. I'm just stuck in the final dungeon of escha and logy. I need to synthesize better armor lol. I forgot atelier lulua is part of the arland games. Oops. I probably forgot it because it's one of the later games I don't have.
@@yunogasai1338 how lenient are we talking?? I don't mind the time limits on quests in lydie and suelle but when the whole game is on a time it really bothers me
@@cagedhercules5649 I just found it less stressful overall. I'm sorry I can't go into detail as it's been a few years since I've played it. I had a much easier time making deadlines. You also dont have to hire characters for your party ulinke in rorona. I hated spending money just to use them in the party so not having to made it easier to save money for key items and ingredients. Later you get a creature that helps you synthesize items you've already completed so long as you give them treats. I used this to make them create items I used most often or items of better quality that I'd made. It takes a lot of the stress of spending too much time synthesizing certain items repeatedly. It is my favorite atelier game by far. But I've only played Rorona, Totori, a little bit of Ayesha along with ryza, and most of sophie besides escha and logy.
I didn't like Firis but not because of the game, burnout just finally hit me after eight yearly Atelier games in a row lol. Now that I've been away from the series for a few years I might give it another play.
Thanks for the awesome collab! I hope people will enjoy some Atelier goodness after watching this 😎👍❤❤

And since Ayesha was my first, it's currently my sentimental favorite; so thanks for shouting it out Irene!!!
Ayesha is pretty and beautiful 😍
I'm an Ayesha guy also. I love its art style and characters so much.
I finally played my first Atelier game (Escha and Logy) earlier this year. It was such a chill, relaxing experience. I’ll try another one sometime soon.
lydie and suelle are also quite chill, so much so that i sometime play for 4 hours straingth without seeing it.
I'm still trying to decide which atelier game to buy for the nintendo switch, I haven't really played another atelier game since i finished atelier iris 2 and 3 on the PS2 years ago.
"The world map is cute to traverse on" now thats a new feature xd
I’m loving how charming and wholesome Ryza is, I definitely look forward to trying out some of the old ones, so it’s good to know what’s worth playing
It's too bad Iris and the Mana Kimia games aren't on the Switch.
Absolutely loved Lulua! It was my first and favorite Atelier game so far. It literally got me interested in the series.

All Atelier games are on sale in the US eShop! I literally just bought them all… yes it was about $200 but I got like 10 games for that price

I liked your collaboration with Ircha Gaming, so I subscribed!
I still think Meruru is one of my favorites. I also miss the English voices as well.
I agree eng dubbing was always so good and Meruru was great.
Atelier iris is the entry series bring me to this series. Enjoy all 3 series of atelier iris. Wish we could get a remake or remaster of this series :D
Iris 1 peaks my interest in the series the most. Isometric view JRPGs hit home.
The 5 games (in English) on the PS2 are all isometric.

Love Your content, energy and enthusiasm. Thanks ! ☺️
This was a nice vid. I've personally only played Ryza 1 and 2, both of which I really enjoyed.
Just found out about Sophie 2 coming next year! I'm so excited!
And it seems that it will receive the Ryza treatment, with updated graphics and animations

All the protagonists seem the same to me.

Been wanting to get into this series but they can be expensive, luckily some are on sale now
Awesome video I Love it
Just found out this channel. I like it :) Good video for Atelier beginners like me
a lot of Taun of fun on Atelier Ryza series
Ryza got me into the series and I recently picked up Ryza 2, now I hear Sophie is getting a direct sequel so that might be where I continue
I keep hearing of the Atelier series and have them all in my steam wish list, but haven't pulled the trigger on a manic buying spree.
start with one instead of buying multiple, after all, they are all quite lengthy games. (more than 60h each if would expirement with the alchemy.)
today i still stand by my word Dusk series is by Far the most fenomenal Games with top tier Design By Hidari-san!!!
Thanks I was looking for a guide on what Atelier series game to get after Atelier Ryza2.
if you want something darker, i think the dusk trilogy is better, have a look at an eric landon video on the dusk games.
Curious to see how this goes. I love the Atelier series, starting with Rorona on PS3.
Only made it through 9 so far, a bit short of making my own top 10.

Currently playing through Lulua, very underappreciated game
I'm playing it again too ^^
* See Atelier Iris 2 at the top 2:
"-Justice has been made, my friend."
Anyway, nice collab xD

10:24 Dos thick Thighs are the real reason to start here.
Atelier Ryza 2 is easily the best in the entire franchise. Ryza one and Lulua at one point had a case to be labeled the best as well. That only makes my hype for Sophie 2 multiply lol.
The most memorable for me is Atelier iris 2 azoth of destiny on ps2. The concept of two swords (evil and good) is pretty cool at that time for me.
Good video, a little sad don't see shopie and meruru in the top hahaha
I wish they would remake iris and also bring back some of the great spirits as npcs
Keep up the great work I love seeing stuff about rpg games.
I swear I pronounce this series wrong every time. I’ve always said it like At lier
One of the games says it At-leer.
Correct way would sound close to atuhleeyay if you want correct french pronounciation.
Sorry, but I can't agree Ryza being so high. I do think the alchemy is an improvement, but its male characters, battle mechanics and ESPECIALLY THE SOUNDTRACK are all quite pitiful. I can't comment on the other Dusk games. Also, people should note that Ayesha's time limits will ruin your dreams of 100%ing the game.
So glad Shallie made this list, my absolute favorite
Damn, after seeing this collab I regret I don't have a PS3.
I didn't play any of the modern Atelier games, but now I want :)
Played the entire Iris series and both Mana Khemias on my PS2 thanks to the friend's recommendation.
All of them are awesome games.
But the only one I managed to actually complete (though I got only Nikki's ending) was Mana Khemia: The Alchemists of Al-Revis.
I wish I saw this video a little earlier, I wouldn't have got Sophie during the Koei Tecmo sale, and just got Ryza 2 instead.
Great Channels, I wanted to know if it is needed to play the Dusk arc in order or are they different stories? Thanks!
I'm not even into the Atelier series, but I like all the videos yu make 😁
im not sure in the DX remake of shallie but diud they fix the side quest misstranlations
I never tried any of these games, seems like a big thing to jump into.
its indeed a big thing. Also, dont be suprise if you just think about playing for a bit both 4 hours later, you see that you have played way more than you thought you would... its games where its easy to be lost in trying to make the perfect explosive item or weapon... lol.
the Iris triology was and will always be my favorite. Eternal Mana is my childhood
Afaik if you have a Vita and a PS3/4, you can play Vita games on the big screen.
I don´t know if the Mana Khemia games are part of the Atelier series, they have the Alchemy system though, those are my personal favorites.
My first atelier game is atelier annie and i really love the alchemist and slice of life story from this series, and then i jumped to ryza 2 and it was really amazing. currently i'am playing the mistery trilogy and sophie is my fav so far also she is really best girl XD cant wait for sophie 2
Currently Playing Sophie. Very nice game.
I like all the games it is awesome
I really love escha and logy's battle system
Atelier Iris 2 is still my favorite. Was the first I play for the series.
I wish I could play the ones with timers but it's too stressful for me 🤣 I'll stick to Iris and then Sophie and beyond
I found escha and logy to be a little more lenient on the time stuff especially when compared to the Arland trilogy. I'm just stuck in the final dungeon of escha and logy. I need to synthesize better armor lol. I forgot atelier lulua is part of the arland games. Oops. I probably forgot it because it's one of the later games I don't have.
@@yunogasai1338 how lenient are we talking?? I don't mind the time limits on quests in lydie and suelle but when the whole game is on a time it really bothers me
@@cagedhercules5649 I just found it less stressful overall. I'm sorry I can't go into detail as it's been a few years since I've played it. I had a much easier time making deadlines. You also dont have to hire characters for your party ulinke in rorona. I hated spending money just to use them in the party so not having to made it easier to save money for key items and ingredients. Later you get a creature that helps you synthesize items you've already completed so long as you give them treats. I used this to make them create items I used most often or items of better quality that I'd made. It takes a lot of the stress of spending too much time synthesizing certain items repeatedly. It is my favorite atelier game by far. But I've only played Rorona, Totori, a little bit of Ayesha along with ryza, and most of sophie besides escha and logy.
@@yunogasai1338 thanks you've been helpful I think I'll give that one a go
@@cagedhercules5649 I played escha and logy plus so I'm not sure how different it is from the original but I hope you enjoy it.
Great video... even though I disagree about some of the choices, haha. No love for my girl Firis?
I didn't like Firis but not because of the game, burnout just finally hit me after eight yearly Atelier games in a row lol. Now that I've been away from the series for a few years I might give it another play.
