Should I get Eschatology or Sophie? It's been about a year since I bought an Atelier and I figure might as well give the franchise another shot.

Ah you're right, for some reason I thought it was Action Unleashed. My bad.

Nah.

Some pointers though.

-The girls have two different experience bars, make sure to raise the one called Extar first (at least until they get to level 10) that will unlock the full moveset of the character wielding that Extar.

-You unlock costumes, hairstyles, hair colors and underwear by touching the characters on the dressing room and then, by playing the heart catcher mini game.

-The golden hearts that sometimes appear above the characters' heads on the hub level have to be tapped via the touch screen, doing that will raise their affection level and eventually unlock romance novels for those two characters.

-Game has two endings. The true ending is unlocked by getting SS rank on specific stages. The game will point which ones after getting the normal ending.

-If you ever have issues with the combat, drop by the training or Challenge modes. That will teach you to use the system at it fullest.

-You get new challenge and survival levels by advancing through the game and then purchasing the corresponding licenses at the in-game store.

Eschatology acquired, should I play Ayesha first or is it not that necessary story-wise?

Not at all required. If you want a more story driven game, play Ayesha first. If you want a more gameplay driven game, play Eschatology first

Is there really no way of forcing the Vita to check for downloads I've queued up on the webstore and have to wait for whatever vagaries of fate made it check automatically?

There isn't a manual queue fetch, and the Vita handles any background task stuff (trophies etc so I assume also queue fetching) at noon UTC with no way to change that either.

Set crawling confusion to your night bar 3x. set electrocute x2 set Room Heal x2. this setup usually carries me far through the night or gives me time to stall out till the next day.

Enter floor. pop CC all the enemies get pulled to your room and confused. pop electrocute they all take a MAJOR hit (i think it almost always kills for me other than defensive aura'd enemies)
Keeping peaches from other runs is always a decent idea.


Peaches + waterwalk = juicy peaches on demand. Dont take scrolls when doing this. water wets them ?(but doesnt turn them toi blank scrolls or change what they were like in the past)

take a run or two to get like...2 preservation jars worth of peaches get a bracelet (I honestly got my waterwalk through the lucky pot) take your peaches walk in some water.

For maximum utility try to make your trap brace your waterwalk brace. use it only to abuse the poo poo out of your golden card from the points house (the points house is in nekomaneki village bottom center of town. (I somehow managed to miss this building for some time on my playthrough) talk to the guy in town to get a points card for all those gold traps with the blue band through them.


The point house will be your number 1 source of becoming the dungeon god. undo grass for 70 pts
(revive/escape when you die unfortunately these take ultimate priority so if you have other revival items. this always activates first before the others do)

pretty much all the good stuff...DONT BUY GROWTH BRACELETS HERE. they drop like candy through your runs. put them in luck pots to get other effects and you'll be swimming in growth bracelets. any other good weapon you wanna drop in there to make a new weapon will also do this...I think the wish weapons may be the exception but I doubt this somehow.

The Mixer enemy will let you add other things not normally possible to your weapons/armor. the safest way to use him is to take a weapon you arent using but is fine to merge into your weapon and feed it to him then throw healing herbs at him. the 4 types of herb adds 5/10/15/20 hp to your weapon you can do this for your weapon/shield to get +100 base health.

ABUSE. THE. SYSTEM.

These are really great ideas. I will call you sensei from now on. Thanks., Sensei.

So about that Valkyrie Drive..

Game seems solid enough so far, the fan service is piled on so much that its kind of hard to..um concentrate on the gameplay though. This is defiantly the most anime game I've ever bought and anything more anime then this I could not handle I don't think.

That was by far the most pleasant surprise of the franchise. Although in all fairness, that is mostly limited to the anime.

Only emojis can express my pure, simple stupidity.

Man, dusted off my PS Vita and forgot what a cool piece of tech it is with all its features. Party chat, online play, Bluetooth, hook up a keyboard, etc etc. Definitely had potential. Sucks they abandoned it pretty much and the switch will definitely be the nail in the coffin. Have a small backlog of games to work through. So glad I got the vita-1000 nyko power grip before they stopped making them. Can't play the vita without it.

FFX is definitely worth a play, right? I've heard drastically different input on X-2. I like a good RPG but am a bit picky. I know there's the PS4 version HD version but I like the portable aspect. Still need to play through y's


Can someone play on a PS4 online and on the vita online on the same account? Remote play only works if the PS4 is the primary console right?

Yeah FFX is great. X-2 is awesome if you like campy stuff but some people were turned off by the goofiness/girliness/needing to play with a guide open for 100%

I'm thinking of getting this, not into anime at all and i've not played any other titty games, i'm just wanting a fun action game which is not musou because I just don't find those too engaging. Is it fit for this purpose, i.e. is this actually a proper game?
