      Ryza because I loved the way each character grew.They were all amateurs at first but they each followed their passion, set their goals, and accomplished them. I especially love how Ryza was not an alchemist but just a regular girl that discovered her love for alchemy.
      Also their clashing and development with Bos throughout the game was so entertaining.

      Ryza, Rorona and Firis for me!
      Rorona was my first game in the series
      Ryza is the one I put the most hours into so far
      Firis has a great open world concept! I love how each one is different and stands out in their own way :)

      I know, I normally avoid super duper heavy content games like these ones since normally I don't have the time to sit through several cutscenes in one go or to do long sessions of grinding, farming and such for extended periods of times and I really hated that because I love info heavy games with well thought and written stories.
      Queue the pandemic and I found myself in a situation with lots of spare time to actually play games like these ones and well... I'm addicted! The music is nice, the graphics are lively and it all feel so welcoming it's just amazing!
      If it weren't for Ircha, I wouldn't likely know about these games and I really like that she goes the extra mile to really put some feel and spirit in her reviews, thanks to her my Switch library is quite mixed with all sort of titles and I love it.

    Your videos on this series were what convinced me to finally take Ryza 2 off my wishlist. It’s my first entry to the Atelier series and I’m probably only about 40 hours into it but I’m still absolutely addicted to it. Thanks for the push!

    I had decided on Lulua as my first after watching your review but it took so long to arrive I ended up getting Ryza 1 digitally and I am just loving it as my first Atelier. I did put in Lulua later just to see the graphics and character and it’s so pretty I already know I will love that too. I’m so excited for Ryza 2 as well ahhh!! 💜🐐 I’m so glad you opened my eyes to this series!! 🙏🏼

If u go into the diary to BGM and pick the songs you want to hear and it basically makes a playlist at random of the songs you choose . There’s also downloadable songs.

    Very informative review. I would like to try the series out at some point and pick up both. They are pretty pricey for Switch compared to what you can find them for on Steam. I noticed Play Asia has a double or was it a triple pack of some of the other games.
    Maybe when I finish up some of the titles in my backlog. I still have both Xenoblade 1 and 2 to finish!

  • @vlogginggamingandcoding
    @vlogginggamingandcoding 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    As it's a direct continuation to the first game there would be no reason not to start from Ryza 1. I also found it difficult to make progress sometimes. I think that if you don't upgrade some of your tools you can't gather some of the items needed for some main guests. I also didn't know to upgrade the rope before it was mandatory. I saw that atelier mysterious trilogy collector's edition was released today but it costs almost 300€ lol :D I will wait to hopefully get it for cheaper price.

    Hello Ircha. Thank You for Your nice reviews. I love jrpg games, I think there is only few I did not try/ play for last 30 years :) I was thinking about playing this as well, but your review shows that the game is terribly tiring (inventory, tons of text and cutscenes) so I won't reach for it, but I respect that you wanted to get through these titles. However, this one is probably not for me. Cheers!

      Too bad ! Try to play one ! I was VERY skeptical about the series (i dont like weeb stuff very much, and Atelier is pretty much weeb material) then i watched the Ircha review about Ryza. I found a copy of the game under discount and start to playing... and dude, its just a JRPG. A very good one. If you like rpgs and a very complex, deep crafting system you will love these games.

    I bought the 2nd atelier ryza first but didn't play much before I got the first one for 50% off on the eshop. I got the preorder launch discount for the mysterious trilogy too so I'll be busy for awhile, lol. I agree the voice acting is weird since Lydie and Suelle doesn't have it either but I think I remember it in Lulua which came after.

    Ryza 2 handles difficulty curve a lot better too. In 1, the game allowed you to pretty much breeze through it only to slap you hard with the final boss. Ryza 2 put multiple bosses here and there as a ‘skill check’ before letting you progress. By the time I reached final boss, I was so much better prepared and obliterated him lol

    As the high fantasy RPG expert, have you played Ravensword Shadowlands? and if so what do you think of it? It seems like a very budgety Skyrim, it's only £6.99 in my currency, I just wondered if it was worth it since I trust your opinion if you tried it :)

    I only heard of Atelier series through Erick Langdon. Ryza2 is recommended game to get because has a lot of content. First game is hard to find other than eshop. Initially, I found combat difficult as fast pace turn based active battle but quickly got used to it. Disappointing there isn't English voice acting. I had to look up recipe morph as had no clue how unlock different recipes like Fish oil required to process a quest. Overall, I enjoy the game and love indepth crafting system. Remaking the items is must when facing bosses and tougher enemies. Tempting to collect all items on the field but basket inventory is limited. I find easy to unlock everything up to locked skills. Main things I love about JRPGs are music, graphics and stories. Can't wait to play more of the game.

    I had to craft the bell, but took a 1 month break from the game, so I COMPLETELY forgot what to do. It took me a good 5 hours to figure it out.
    This game is pretty chill, I play it before going to sleep, usually doing some fighting and gathering while waiting for my cat and then doing some management while my cat sleeps on my legs. When she gets up to eat, I stop playing for the night.
    The Romi stuff confused me mostly because sometimes I just go on a gathering spree and end up with thousands of items that I'll never use, but I'm not organized enough to find what I want to keep and what I want to give away. I think I'm going to just give away every item I'm not currently using and do a reset so I can get better shops. It's not like it's hard to find most items anyway :D

    Kinda unrelated, but have you seen any of the videos for Skyclimbers? It is a kickstarted videogame being developed that will be on all consoles. It seems right up your alley. I pre-ordered, but I thought you might want to check it out. They might even send you a promo code or do an interview or something. Just a thought. You are my favorite reviewer (second place goes to SwitchUp) and I just want to put this game (Skyclimbers) on your radar. They have a TH-cam channel.

    I was really hoping that Ryza 1 was going to get an update with English voices because of its popularity/sales numbers (voice acting is expensive) and that further iterations would keep the Eng voice cast. This didn’t happen 😭. It is really too bad because I think the series has a lot of new Eng speaking followers compared to previous Ateliers.
