    The gameplay is honestly perfect, the story is touching, and the soundtrack still hasn’t been topped by an Atelier game since. The entire Dusk series felt like GUST flexing their talent for three whole years, and I hope these ports coming out means the release of a fourth game in this trilogy like with Atelier Lulua and the Arland Trilogy.

    With the Atelier Dusk Trilogy Deluxe Pack, the entire library of PlayStation 3 Atelier games is now playable on modern systems. While the Arland trilogy broke ground by being the first 3D entries in the franchise, the Atelier Dusk games trade technical innovation for narrative, introducing a strikingly solemn and mysterious world inhabited by gorgeously designed characters that won't be soon forgotten by anyone who plays these games.

    The Atelier franchise is not for everyone. However, it keeps trying to expand its legacy. This time the Dusk trilogy returns stronger than ever to Nintendo Switch with better resolution, mechanics that allow us to go faster, all the additions of previous versions and the same beauty as always. If you like this franchise, it is a highly recommended experience.

    If you already own some of these, or if crafting isn’t your cup of tea, that’s something to consider. But if you’re an RPG fan, the Atelier Dusk Trilogy Deluxe Pack is well worth the time and money spent, and will be enjoyed.

    Always been a fan of the atelier series, are the perfect examples of JRPGs? No but they have a charm and a warmth about them, that keeps meAlways been a fan of the atelier series, are the perfect examples of JRPGs? No but they have a charm and a warmth about them, that keeps me coming back. Price wise the deluxe pack was a tag pricey but you do get 3 amazing games. The graphics in the games are not particularly great but that doesn't bother me too much as the gameplay makes up for it. Would highly recommend this pack for anyone interest in the atelier series.

    I played through Atelier Ayesha on Vita. This is a great game. It has some of the best weapon and item crafting in a JRPG game. The cast ofI played through Atelier Ayesha on Vita. This is a great game. It has some of the best weapon and item crafting in a JRPG game. The cast of characters are very likable in this game too. Ayesha's battle system is a lot of fun and puts up a decent challenge with a normal/hard difficulty and lots of extremely challenging optional bosses. There's also the soundtrack which is among the very best soundtracks in the Atelier series. In this game they went all out with the soundtrack and there's tons of great battle themes, amazing boss themes and the soundtrack is a strong one where almost every song is memorable. This is a must play game. Some may ask about the time limit. Yes Ayesha has one. However, it is incredibly forgiving and it's almost impossible to fail the time limit in this game. So do not worry if you are a beginner. Ayesha is a excellent game for new Atelier players to start with. Full Review »
