SIGH, YOU'RE AN JRPG FAN, SO IT IS ONLY NATURAL TO WANT A NEW JRPG; WHO WOULDN'T? WHY PERSONA 4 ON THAT MATTER, WHY NOT AIM FOR FFVII REMAKE OR SEQUEL IF YOUR WISHING IT? MY POINT IS, IT IS A SPIN-OFF. DUMMY!!!
Besides from Alchemy, Atelier Series' joy is the fast-paced, over-the-top action; always pushing you to dispatch your enemy faster with tags that defies logic (Grand Phantasm, Mana Khamia 1 & 2). But it is somehow lost in turning nextgen. Atelier Series is just a boring RPG for me now (IMO).
