Glad it's doing well. Some people had concerns about the combat.

 

[Anime-Vix]

That's what happens when you release your game on all platforms at the same time. Take notes Square Enix. Congrats to the team.

Right you are.

I really wish all of the games in series were translated.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Good start!

I'll probably circle back around on this once after it's gotten a few patches

I wonder how the PS5 version runs

 

[Lorianus]

I hope she gets a sequel

Spoiler: spoiler speculation

I think her mother is totaly alive, she vanished, a body was never seen and near the end it's mentioned that the grave yumia wants to visit during the credits is only a gravestone

 

[Thief1987]

That's what happens

That's what happens? 300k sales?

 

[Skifi28]

Make that 300.001

 

[Chittagong]

How little can these games cost to make if 300K units is the series peak sales start?

Going by past trends, this will be a 3 part series, too.

Makes you wonder what the budget is, dev + marketing.

All we know is that it's the entry with the highest budget in the Atelier series.

They are most likely Falcom-tier in size, and they are releasing at least one game every year. These 300k might be already covered the whole game's budget.

I mean the series has been on the rise since Ryza. Not surprised a new trilogy/entry is even higher.

 

[The Chairman]

Deserved. Best game in the series.

 

[Zacfoldor]

Awesome, great job Yumia-chan!

I thought this wasn't as good as Ryza 1/2 or Sophia 2? Is this actually worth considering over those games? If so, I'll change the fuck up. Tell me more.

I am guessing this number does not include Steam sales. This is the first Atelier game for me on Steam. All previous games I have played on PS3 and PS4.
