    While the Arland trilogy remains my favorite, Atelier Shallie Plus: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea finishes out the Dusk trilogy in style. The removal of the traditional time limit actually works, and the series' trademark alchemy and battle gameplay is as strong and as fun as ever. The graphical hiccups and long load times may disappoint a little, but this is a stellar JRPG and the cap to the very memorable Dusk trilogy. For Atelier fans who wait for the Vita versions, this is a no-brainer. For new fans or those who already finished things up on PS3, there may be better choices, but for my money Atelier Shallie Plus: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea was 50 hours of fun I wouldn't trade for all the water in Stellard.

    Atelier Shallie Plus is not all that different from any other Atelier game. There's a brief moment at the beginning of the game, when your characters are adrift at sea, when it doesn't seem like things will be proceeding as normal…and then you hit dry land, and it reverts to the same broad formula. If you've been desperate for the game to switch things up, the simple fact that you can make things move more quickly probably won't win you over now. But if you just want another Atelier game that delivers on the series' usual level of quality, you're in luck. Atelier Shallie Plus lives up to the standard set by its predecessors — for better and for worse.
