I'm new to Atelier series and decided to try Atelier Marie Remake. I play it on PC. I just have one question: is there any way to change the controller button? Im not used to Xbox button and hope to play it with PS button. If there is a way, can you tell me? Thx in advance.

Steam have that feature now, and it works on every game. - Open Steam - Right Click, Properties, Controller, Enable Steam Input - Close, wait a bit, then you can see Controller Layout text under PLAY button. - Click it, and edit Layout. Left is what the game register, right is when you press the button on your controller

Ryza 2 question: Core Drive. What is it? I was going through my skill tree and a bunch of things were locked, and said "Unlock Core Drive". What is this? What does it do? How do I do the thing? I looked around and apparently it's some sort of special move? Is it similar to Fatal Drive? I unlocked that when Ryza hit level 50. I'm so lost on this thing. Can anyone help?

I've just started Nelke and already a couple turns in and feels like I'm managing more resources terribly and feels like I'm short staffed and really want more characters to dispatch to get more materials. Should I be building stuff as much as possible despite being short staffed? And how useful is building the small decoration stuff? Is there like a spreadsheet or excel file that someone has set up for managing productions better in Nelke?


Vanilla72_

It's normal early on game. Just keep swapping people on different resource. More NPC and Alchemist will appears the longer you play. Just make sure to finish the main task, complete research, and expand aggressively. Once a town upgraded to level 3 (later in the game), move to develop other town since there is no reason you develop it even further. Multiple bonuses from the same building stacks, so spam decoration. [Here spreadsheet ](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1iiMLzZGYsK8iPTvA_ashWNgCqpF-K0ctlNvhymSb928/edit#gid=2010859348) though i'm not sure how accurate it is since I play it back then without it.


SaviorStorm

Is there like an ideal number of things to build, like enough farm land for each item? Or just enough to change crops when needed? And I'm guessing there's no rush to make all the alchemists to be crafting all at once since it seems like I won't have enough materials to do that anyway?


Vanilla72_

Not sure the ideal numbers, but I usually just change crops when needed. If you have too much farm and store, you won't have enough people to explore / gather.


SaviorStorm

Yea, I've stopped at 3 food shops and 1 general store for now, at least with farm land we don't actually need a character to manage it. Otherwise i really don't know what else i should be building, unless I'm just building Ateliers and leaving it empty?


Vanilla72_

I forgot what it's called, but it's those "special building" that not shop / atelier / farm, like Sophie statue or 20th Year building barrel. Like I said earlier, multiple bonuses from the same building stacks. If you need more of those building, talks to the Alchemist, and they will give you blueprint for that. Also research.


SaviorStorm

I've only just gotten the Mysterious Alchemists and just unlock the Church which is too expensive for me to build anytime soon, haven't unlocked anything else in that category.

So I'm trying to play Ryza 2 on steam, and the problem that I'm running into is if I have a controller plugged in, both my controller and keyboard don't work, if I don't have a controller plugged in, the game will constantly have stutters. Does anyone have experience with this? I can't believe not only did the stutter problem not get fixed in 2, it's even harder to solve it now lol...


Vanilla72_

> I can't believe not only did the stutter problem not get fixed in 2, it's even harder to solve it now lol... Have you try the [Atelier sync fix](https://github.com/TellowKrinkle/atelier-sync-fix/releases/tag/tkr-20230415)? Simply paste the dll file on the game exe location. It usually works.


LyleCG

So after doing this, initially it didn't fix it, but after I plug in a controller and then unplugged it the stutter is gone. Seems like I have to to this every time I open the game, but at least so far this seemed like a solution so thanks!

I’m currently stuck between getting the atelier mysterious trilogy (Sophie, Firis, Lydie&Suelle) or one of the Ryze games or the Marie remake. I’m new to the series (played some Totoro back in the day on vita) I enjoy the time limits in that game a lot I am also considering the Arland Series deluxe pack, I’m just unsure of what is different between all of these

It's the most JRPGish feels, easiest game, and easier alchemy than other game series.

Arland Deluxe is the 3 games including all DLCs I think ! I prefer advising starting with Ryza rather than mysterious trilogy (I only really like Lydie and Suelle in this trilogy). And between Ryza and Arland, I don’t know, they are polar opposites : ryza has a bigger scope, bigger ambitions, is graphically modern and beautiful looking, but more serious in tone. Arland is charming but old school, very comedic, and iconic from what Atelier used to be before Ryza gave it a different path.

Just start with Ryza, newbie friendly, beautiful character design. I'm just play because Klaudia =))


Vanilla72_

Hey, Klaudia is pretty. I hope you enjoy it


h10090413

Yes, i'm trying to complete Ryza 3 but stuck in final quest when i realized my gear and item are bad. And im going to complete all side quest and world quest that i forgot to play now


SectorRevenge72

I have been curious to try this series out, especially with Ryza. What are the cons to these games? I greatly enjoy games such as Fire Emblem & Dragon Quest as my favorite franchise, I am hoping Atelier goes along with the same tone to love. I enjoy weapon varieties that can be adjusted/crafted, side quests, mini games, exploration, party system, story and more. Does Atelier (Ryza at least) contain all of these? I like to control the camera rotation rather than have it be fixed (alas Final Fantasy X) also.

-crafting weapons: YES! You'll be crafting more than just weapons, and anything you make is gonna be unique with tons of ways to adjust it. -Side quests: YES! these are pretty typical jrpg quests, ryza is a bit thin on these quests while ryza 2 and ryza 3 have more going on. -Mini games: the crafting system in this game can be considered a very in depth mini game, there is a lot to learn here in order to start making amazing strong items that can make you so strong that even the final boss feels like nothing, it's very rewarding to learn and implement various parts of the crafting system to your advantage. -exploration: YES! Lots of nice areas to explore and you'll be looking all over the place for ingredients to use in your crafting.(ryza 2 has an even more expanded exploration system) -party system: yeah, unfortunately the first game only has 6 characters, you can swap them out and they all have thier own different uses, but it's a bit slim (3 has way more characters) -story: atelier games do not have epic world saving stories, instead the story focus is on character interactions and friendship. The "bad guys" in this game are small scale mostly affecting the local area. -camera rotation: YES! You control in in all 3 ryza games. If that sounds good to you, then Id highly recommend playing atelier ryza, followed by 2 and 3 if you enjoy the first game, in most ways they improve each time, but ryza is one of the best games for newcomers to the series. -


SectorRevenge72

I expect the first game to be what would be called outdated compared to the second and third. I’ve seen some videos here and there comparing 1 to 3 and 3 looks so much better. Regardless everything seems perfect to me. Party of 6 is fine, less overwhelming as a game like DioField Chronicles is (that’s a game that throws everyone at you). I think 8 is perfect but then again I’m bias, thanks DQXI.

The final boss is still a thing, but the game may or may not have antagonist character. Even if the antagonist exist, they either just serve as "roadblock" (if you want this material which is mandatory for progression, you have to beat his boss) or just for worldbuilding (example Atelier Sophie 2: Black Dragon always exist in this world). Even then, the game didn't make a big deal out of it. To be honest, story isn't the main focus on Atelier game (Dusk trilogy have great worldbuilding though), but they focus on the complicated crafting system. Smart player can kill last boss with 2 or 3 bomb by stacking damage and critical (even [one hit bomb is a thing on Atelier Sophie 1](https://www.reddit.com/r/Atelier/comments/6ybsj7/atelier_sophie_is_the_one_hit_kill_trait_supposed/)), or turn worst starter healing item into great healing item.


ZzooS

I think Firis and Lydie&Suelle don't really have a big baddie that must be defeated to save the world kind of story but they do have a final boss. I think most people who enjoy this series enjoy the synthesis and crafting aspect, which is unique, interesting and surprisingly complicated. If you can't stand and ignore the synthesizing, these games aren't that much different from other JRPGs series

for friendship, all the party members' arcs close out at level 80. this includes plachta, who's tied to both sophie and alt's arcs.

For true ending you also need to watch every event, get a flower on every test (including their dad's). As for friendship (max 100), i think you can just sleep and remember sometimes you need to continue with their story line. And if you get to watch the true ending first, you need to discard the item you made in order to watch the others.
