I played the Ar Tonelico trilogy, loved it, and somehow didn't know this game existed until a few months ago. I bought it blind, knowing nothing but that it was a "spiritual successor" to the Ar Tonelico games. I doubted it could capture the magic of the Ar Tonelico games, but when this opening started, with the computer code aesthetic, the "project [insert game name]" logo, and the music that sounded right at place in Ar Tonelico openings, I knew this was going to be Ar Tonelico 4 in all but name (and I guess setting). And I was right. Such a good game. I'd still like to see more Ar Tonelico, but if you keep making Ciel games, and they stay as true to Ar Tonelico as Ar Nosurge did, it's all good.
GUST need bigger budget, remake this game and includes Ciel Nosurge together and release it on PS4. The story is great, but from the gameplay alone it's obvious they are making this on a very small budget.
@@ariedge2435 it's been a long time so I don't know what quest, but I do get to the point Iris survived in the end. Still, the story still shows it's like Iris will die if she make the wish to Escalario. And that part of the story is really sad and hit the feel for me It' s really a pity they didn't make extra story to save Iris. Instead, they just made it she somehow survive and live
Ar tonelico as a whole needs to remaster it for current gen consoles. I have played all four games, 1, 2, qoga(3) and this one and would love to see and play it all again in HD
Ahh Hymmnos. This is the thing that I loved in Ar Tonelico series, music gave me goosebumps, this chants are unbelievable. I smell that Ar Nosurge will be no exception.
Diving doesn't get really explained here, even though it does shed some light in several of EXA_PICO's concepts and history. However, it does introduce an inconsistency with previous worldbuilding materials by having Shurelia be present in a time era where she shouldn't be even be created yet: the Forest of Shelanoir and Syestine were destroyed in the same year Shurelia was created in due to the Seven Bloodstains Incident, but by the way she acts and talks, it seems like she has been alive for four years already (Seven Bloodstains and Shurelia's creation: 3031 AD, Shurelia being installed as Ar tonelico's Administrator: 3035 AD).
Yay~ I was so worried when ar tonelico ended. I thought that music like this wouldn't come out anymore. But I'm glad it left a legacy, can't wait to buy and play ar no surge. :D Ooh maybe it's the same universe, or distant past or future Or maybe there's no concept of reyvateils so we'll hear some guy songs Can't wait to see
Qpksa You can search for Hymmnos. This is official language written especially for the Ar Tonelico series. And the games have plenty of this kind of music. It's epic.
Just search for ar tonelico soundtracks right here on TH-cam There's 3 games ar tonelico, ar tonelico 2 and ar tonelico qoga All three are beautiful Some of my favorites are Kokoro katari from AT2 Phantasmagoria from AT And saki's normal ending song from qoga
The xbox community in general is too xenophobic which is why EU and Asia games don't fully represented themselves on the console, unlike Playstation. Furthermore, Sony actually has a wealth of western studios. It is simply a platform with far larger international appeal.
Ahh... These chills again... Reminds me about Ar Tonelico 1 and 2. Although I expected much more from this game watching this intro. Ar Tonelico 1 and 2 impacted me more about the history, battles and cosmospheres especially AT2 around Lady Cloche and Luca with Infelsphere and Synchronizations. I would like see and play again a game like AT2.
If you love game based music and jrpgs, this is the game for you. Definitely recommended for genre mentioned fans. It's predecessor games, the Ar Tonelico series is awesome !
There are some things mentioned that you won’t understand, but for the most part anyone who plays this will be ok to understand this game. Ciel noSurge just sheds some light on some things that happened previously but is not a requirement. But with that being said, shame on Koei for not localizing it. Sure there was the whole PS Vita has no games, but it’s like yeah well there are lots of games on it. They are just not being localized. And now of course it’s too late. But a port to Steam, Switch and PS4 is welcomed anytime with maybe adding Ar noSurge with it.
this game will be gone forever, the store is closed down, the physical is very rare. another legacy will be terminated. we can only depend on piracy idk if there is on ps now or ps4
Yes this game even breaks the fourth wall by saying that you’re controlling a robot and watching what happens through a screen. But you control Earthes in the Ion scenes whereas in the Casty scenes you control a regular guy named Delta.
Hey Sony! Y'know there's this thing called a PS Vita, and this game is on it in Japan, and I'd like it if this game was released over in the West on Vita. Just sayin'
Awesome games since Ar Tonelico and Atelier, I love this kind of games and a shame I didn't have ps3 for this but I cherish the old ones :3 , and hope I can see another with Akiko's voice.
Awesome opening video. Bought the game today, it's great so far, only 2 things bother me a bit. The fact that it looks like it's been made in the beginning periode of PS3 and no camera control.
Akiko Shikata music never gets old
because its divine

It would be an "Ar tonelico 5" in any case. There's Ciel nosurge before this game.
@Old Liquid it will run on a region free system, you just got to learn Japanese.
@@aquagondrag Both Ar no surge and Ciel no surge are prequel of Ar tonelico, so Ciel no surge is 0 and Ar no surge is 0.5

Gameplay wise I prefer Ar Tonelico 1 & 2, Atelier Iris 3, and Mana Khemia 1 & 2 I love their gameplay so much

The Music and Visuals are so beautiful ;~;
Akiko Shikata
this game explains who the Teru tribe really are and shows the origin of Diving. It really gives Ar Tonelico a lot more depth now :P
+Deus Vitae Exactly.

I really love this intro, but the melody of metafalica intro song will always be my personal favorite.
Gaming Goddess
the game producer that makes this game (and others including the Atelier series) always has the most amazing openings.
The Ar saga and Nier
Both have beautiful OST's
Da Player Don't forget .hack, it has very similar vocal tracks
2023 gang representing 👐🤌🫵
Yay~

Ar tonelico 1 for me is the best one. Remake 2 and you will get ar no surge, the battle system is nice but it's getting tedious soon
Never played let alone heard of this but I freaking love this music. I'd look into the game If I weren't so lazy and listening to a playlist.
+Nick Payne If you've ever heard of Ar Tonelico (a trilogy of games from the PS2 and PS3), this game is a prequel to those games
I missed such great games in the past.
Mannnn i miss this game...
I want a Ar Tonelico Melody of Elemia remake
Is this a videogame or a new anime series? .3.
videogame
***** AH OK OK I already realise that this is the opening.
It's not new. Ar ___ games date back a decade.
MrGencyExit64 Agreed. As far back as arc the lad.
MrGencyExit64 It is a new game tho. Just came out in March in Japan, released today in US.
2020 here , love this song so muchhh
2021 ♥♪
If you love game based music and jrpgs, this is the game for you. Definitely recommended for genre mentioned fans. It's predecessor games, the Ar Tonelico series is awesome !
Love this song
I'll look more into it when the store updates. That intro at least caught my interest.
Curse Gust didn't expand EXA_PICO more.
Glad i bought it at playasia i am currently playing the game
AW, SWEET! I had no idea PlayStation started advertising anime! 10/10 would watch Opening Trailer (PlayStation 3) again!
you are aware this is a video game right?
1juanvasquez
Appearances can be deceiving. It' an anime disguised as a game.
ive seen gameplay footage makes me wish i had a playstation 3
to this day regret getting an xbox 360 instead of a ps3
+WithTimeComesStories It's a JRPG. That's Gust bread and butter. Often tied with a Visual Novel narrative framework.
BEST OPENING SONG EVER
WHAAAA it's alright out?!!!!
I must play it *^* the music in this series is one of the greatest!
The story looks promising, the music awesome, got my attention.
Just picked up today. Can't wait to play after work!
Not sure what this is but the music is awesome along with the visuals
+GameTheist Akiko Shikata is the best.
You should really play Ar Tonelico series if you still didn't.
There is a translated play through of the story is anyone is interested.
Since this game is a direct sequel to Ciel nosurge, and that was never localized, are we not going to be able to follow the story?
There are some things mentioned that you won’t understand, but for the most part anyone who plays this will be ok to understand this game.

This is sitting on my doorstep waiting for me to get home.
JAPAN
I just can't get enough of this.
Umineko no Naku Koro ni Oening - [When The Seagulls Cry] opening song format... almost similar!
Same singer
I'm not sure what this is but it looks interesting...
this game will be gone forever, the store is closed down, the physical is very rare. another legacy will be terminated.
we can only depend on piracy
idk if there is on ps now or ps4
Store is still open in 2024 and I bought this on PSVita >:D
@@hedgems2104 yes, sony changed their mind after lashback from gamers. ps3 and psvita store still open.🥰
Aún viéndolo ,amo estas series de Ar tonelico y Ar nosurge
PC version pls.
For some reason this opening ost gives me that .hack//gu vibe and I'm okay with it. Definitely going to pick it up
Wow, beautiful opening! Definitely a title that will get overlooked at the end of a consoles life cycle...
New entry to the Ar tonelico series, YES!
i wish this game would get an HD remake :( i miss it lol
Got some serious .//hack SIGN vibes from the beginning of the video. すごい！
Just the soundtrack alone is enough for me to pay full price for this. I haven't been this blown away from a game's music sinse Metal Gear Rising.
The music if this is stunning along with the animation, I'll check this out * w *
i was like wtf..ghost in the shell opening (the pupet master movie) when i saw the begining of the video and the music :o !
Waiting for soundtrack...
looks amazing
What do you call this genre of music?
best release trailer I saw
omg omg omg i cant wait!!
Awesome anime openings... So where is the game? I love when they show gameplay!
1:48 What is Onewa (Bionicle) doing here?
+Bogi B Earthes.
+Bogi B
That's actually you. Yes. You.
Yes this game even breaks the fourth wall by saying that you’re controlling a robot and watching what happens through a screen. But you control Earthes in the Ion scenes whereas in the Casty scenes you control a regular guy named Delta.
This game is very colorful and it looks like it would have an animated adaptation
The opening looks cool~ But hopefully the game is nice to play~ xD
Gameplay??
there an 11 min video
They have some gameplay vids up
So umm...... wtf is it about?
Thanks Gust for not disappointing your fans :)
Reminds me of ar tonelico
because this is the sequel of the 3 ar tonelico games
It's a prequel to the Ar Tonelico trilogy. It's in the universe.
I love these types of games but waiting till it released on vita
Local dreadnought protects his waifu
Please localise the previous game in the series
So glad I pre ordered this for the extra items.
I have no idea what this is, but my ears are happy.
is the boy and girl here look like the statue in lyner's city in ar tonelico 1? picturing them as the hero that told a decade ago?
They aren't. The statue was modeled after Shurelia and Tastiella.
the wait for my limited edition in the mail is killing me
This sounds pretty much like Umineko no naku koro ni Opening.
Was yea ra chs hymmnos mea
Give me back Aurica and Misha T...T
2:20 aww the orange haired girl looked sad
Dat angelic voice doe...
Hey Sony! Y'know there's this thing called a PS Vita, and this game is on it in Japan, and I'd like it if this game was released over in the West on Vita. Just sayin'
song name for this trailer?
i never EVER skip this opening #SonyMDR1BT
Umineko ahh op
Awesome games since Ar Tonelico and Atelier, I love this kind of games and a shame I didn't have ps3 for this but I cherish the old ones :3 , and hope I can see another with Akiko's voice.
Loved the gameplay.
Oh wait....
Well that was interesting to watch. I have no idea what it is though.
Is this in the ar tolenico series or is it different ? loved that game !
It's a precuel, but characters like Shurelia appears.
+Elli It's a prequel to the franchise as a whole. That said The story is more directly related to a Japanese-only title called Ciel Nosurge.
Prequel.
Bring this to ps4 please. D:
love it...
Need to get this. Neeeeeeed it.
Such a shame that I'm pretty much last on the mailing list, and I have to wait until like 6pm until I can get this.
Stupid online shopping.
Awesome!!! to bad im broke! but as soon as I get some cash I'll buy this along with Diagaea 4!!
OMG AKIKO SHIKATA!!!! AMAZING!!! XD ToT
Song stuck in my head
2019 any?
Nice game. Awesome ost
Remake Hype!!!
Awesome opening video.
Bought the game today, it's great so far, only 2 things bother me a bit.
The fact that it looks like it's been made in the beginning periode of PS3 and no camera control.
that girl looks like aurica, and this is what i wanted to say a few years ago
Anyone else getting Epic of Zektbach vibes?
is it okay for a girl to play this :-:?
I don't see why it wouldn't be.
I don't know what happened all I know is I want more
So...do I even shoot or hit anything in this game?
fck XDD i thougt this was an anime XD saw it on an amv
There are parts that remind me of a Nier Automata theme
Gosh Playstation are getting too many games xD
