Thanks to Yuyucow and Anonymous in previous threads for digging up the links. Foobar can play the .tta files but if you feel like converting them to .FLAC or whatever for your MP3 player/Media player of choice then Foobar also provides an easy convert tool. Takes about a minute to convert the albums over to FLAC.

Honestly, I would rather grab the FLACs because the Internet has proven that it can't encode lossy media for crap.

Oh, and if you're downloading mp3s, the tags for non-ASCII data will ever be encoded right. Seriously, I've seen three different pieces of software do three different things with Japanese tags. ID3 is fucking shit.

Anyway, back on topic ...

Someone in the previous channel was talking about hearing actual song magic for the Reyvateils' spells. The AT3 R.A.H is kind of like that ... I thought it was a nice touch, even if it means we don't have traditional battle themes (and the battle themes in the AT series are pretty decent).

3 questions questions remain unanswered for me.

Would Shurelia age normally (for a Reyvateil) if she was no longer the administrator?

What's the explanation for the different personas in AT3? The clothing from AT1/AT2 was explained in the Toukousphere saying it's generated by song magic but having completely different characters is pushing it quite a bit.

And is it possible to save screenshots in .jpg using GSdx? ZeroGS can do this but in AT2 my FPS drops to below 20 whilst the screen flickers badly so I don't really want to use that anymore.

EXEC_HARMONIUS/. is Misha singing it to Mir to help calm her down. EXEC_HARMONIUS_FYUSION/. is Mir singing it so it's only natural that it sounds like a loli. The version Mir sings is cute and suits her rather well but I prefer the version Misha sings, probably due to the circumstances where it's playing during the last fight.

If you're on Aurica's path, Shurelia has less guilt, as poor Aurica would probably completely crash if you left her then. Meanwhile Shurelia has been alive for who knows long and still has duties to attend to, whereas Aurica has none and could jump off a cliff if she wanted to with no repercussions to their world.

>Meanwhile Shurelia has been alive for who knows long

That's what makes me take pity on her. She's been alive for so long and witnessed so much. She's seen so many people die whilst under her administration due to various circumstances. The last person she had any form of feelings for was in the first era who was her 'father' figure, since then she's been keeping her emotions locked up and tried her best to keep everything running as best as she could by herself. She never opened up to anyone until Lyner arrived. To say no to her then.. is just too much for me. ;_; But I haven't done the Aurica path (yet, I plan on doing it after I complete AT2) so I don't know her circumstances in Phase 2 but she seems relatively fine at the end of the game on Misha's route even if she acts rather depressed at the start of Phase 2.

LAST EPISODE: Everyone's in a hotel in Nemo. Shurelia, not realizing that hotel doors auto-lock, locks herself out of her room while not wearing Linkage. She's too embarrassed to go down to the front desk out of her armor, so she gets Lyner to do it, but he's held up talking to Jack and Misha on the way back, so when he gets back upstairs, Shurelia gets mad at him, grabs the key, and locks herself in her room. Aurica wants go to lunch; Lyner thinks he should ask Shurelia, but is afraid of getting yelled at again; Aurica just knocks on her door anyway.

> Shurelia stuck her face out through the barely-opened door. It was quite obvious from her expression that she was not pleased. "Food, you say?"

> "Y-yes. I thought maybe you'd like to come with us, Shurelia-sama ... "
>
> "If you don't come with us, Shurelia-sama, I'll be all alone with Lyner, though."

It is, but I think it's nicer to read the book. (Those scans aren't that great either, in my opinion.) Plus, the great thing about light novels is that they're usually the perfect size to fit in my pocket.

The controls are not intensive, so anything would do(and there are many gamepads with a nearly identical PS2 interface).
I would personally suggest one that you would also be comfortable to use with something like fighting games, it may prove useful later on.

Yeah, pretty much. However, any "wrong" choice will only cost you some dive points (earned from battles, you have more than you'll ever need) and you can dive right back in if you get kicked out because of it. A Cosmosphere is basically a Reyvateil's subconscious, so they will "forget" any mistakes you made in there. A lot of the events that occur are snooker-loopy-nut-crazy-ding-dong, as you might expect since you're basically walking around in their dreams, but the events in the Cosmosphere are generally metaphorically related to the events that are actually happening to the characters.

Depends on the game, though I'm not sure if there are any truly ronery ends. I know that if you don't dive past level 5 in any of the girls in AT2 (at which point you start dating them and are locked), you get the Cocona end. This is not necessarily a bad thing, mind you.

AT1: your ending is only determined by in-game choices you make
AT2/AT3 (I gather): your ending is determined by what cosmosphere stuff you do

In AT2, the "ronery end" is Cocona end, but she goes off to Sol Cluster when it's done, so I guess it still is ronery end.

The ending for AT3 is actually somewhat complicated.

If you go past level 8 in a Cosmosphere, you're locked onto that Reyvateil's ending, but there's other variables that affect it.

You will be asked 3 questions through the game, and each one assigns a heart point to one of the two main Reyvateils. If you get 3 on one, you get locked onto their ending.

There's also a battle at some point that you need to beat within a time limit, or else Tilia can't be awakened ;_;

Later on you're also given the option to allow Saki to sing a certain song, or to stop her, which affects your ending greatly.

If you run out of time for the battle AND choose to stop Saki's song, you get the Bad End, which is pretty much the worst case scenario ;_;

In order to get Tilia's ending, you need a Heart Point ratio of 2:1 between the other two, and you need to accept her confession. You get a choice along the lines of "Save Tilia or save the world", which decides whether you get Tilia's Normal or True ending.

If you have 2:1 Heart Points and don't get with Tilia, but don't meet the requirements to get the Bad End, you get Cocona's ending.

If you stop the song, and you didn't manage to free Tilia, you get the Bad End.

If you stop the song and don't meet the requirements for the Bad End, you go onto the last Phase and can get the "True" ends for Saki and Finnel, Tilia's "Normal" or "True" end, or Cocona's end.

According to the Toukosphere (I'd look it up but the wiki is throwing database errors at me), Cocona is actually out of range of the first and second towers in AT3, so I doubt that she could be monitored. Her Reyvateil side just "falls asleep" and goes dormant until she is in range again. Apparently, this means she doesn't need the life-extending agent, either. This could also explain why you can't dive into her in AT3.

It's likely that they just retcon'd some of their retconning or something in AT3, as the Toukospheres seem to be somewhat contradictory about the subject.

Time will tell, I guess. They've only recently put out AT3 and they have a new Atelier game currently getting a complete makeover so I imagine once that settles down we'll see what they have in mind for their next project.

After looking over some of the previous events in the AT storyline I really think it's interesting where they could make a prequel but sadly a lot of things would need to be changed or sacrificed to keep the remaining 'system' since song magic didn't start out all that well etc. There's always the possibility of a sequel but the chances of it using the characters we know and love are slim. Ar Tonelico took 30 years to build and that technology was lost at the end of the first era. Also that's assuming they'd want to a new tower.. I'm assuming the towers come down at the end of AT3 if >>4966457 is anything to go by. Plus after all that time I'm sure they'd want to stay on the real surface.. So at best you'd expect all of the characters to be hags. Maybe not the origins since I'm not sure how they age without the tower but anyway..

A prequel is the most likely if another is to be made, unless there's more towers available on Namek or something. But even a prequel still looks slim.

How would that work exactly? There's only a few major plot events that would require a massive amount of people and even then you'd be limited to vanguard and reyvateil. It'd also remove the whole point of Ar Tonelico which is the exploration of the cosmosphere where you interact with the female cast and get to know their deepest feelings. Instead you'd be running around mindlessly grinding on Nyo? whilst having Chinese gold farmers trying to sell you Leaf at ridiculous prices.

It could be like Granado Espada; you control an entire party at once. You make a main char, can create vanguards and RTs, pick 4 whenever you log in, and the RTs will have cosmospheres based on what type they are upon creation.

Access to CS levels should be limited by level somehow, like talk topics only coming up at x level.

There was actually a Toukousphere question about that back in AT1, and the answer was basically "Sol Ciel is a pretty small place, so there wouldn't be that much to do".

I just Bad Ended. ... ... ... orz

I don't really know what's going on yet, obviously, but I'm sure that Shurelia and Mir will be able to handle that Antibody outbreak, right? ... ... ... right?

I've been building up Saki's heart points, so I think I'll do Saki ends, then Finnel ends, then Tilia ends. With Cocona in there somewhere. Question, though; if I don't beat the boss in time and I don't stop the song, but I don't have enough heart points with Finnel or Saki, do I get Cocona end? That would be pretty awesome, since that would take me about half an hour right now.

I'm doing Saki first because I kind of prefer Finnel, and you save the best for last, right? Saki still talks about herself in the third person, and she's like 15, that's kind of annoying. (I love Cocona to death, but I hope she grows up, too. By which I mean learns to use first person pronouns. People can still be as pu~ as they want.) I tend to prefer the energetic, tomboy-ish type over moeblobs, and Finnel definitely has more of a boisterous personality, the little shit.

(Note also that I've only done lv. 4 cosmospheres, so I really don't know anything. Cosmospheres are so expensive.)

I wish to be the little Reyvateil Anonymous, I really do. But unfortunately they don't really develop until they're old enough so unless they have a growth disorder you're generally looking at tumours.

>>4968153

I thought of this and dismissed it completely. Whilst the idea of controlling your own unit is good I really don't see it working well with others and then the cosmosphere's would just be completely generic. It works for AT because there's only 3 girls, so they can spend time and develop a good storyline and attachment to them. It just couldn't really work on this scale, unless you want to see the same content every time you get a new Reyvateil..

>>4968163

Could work but at the same time I'd feel as if they'd be butchering the storyline like World of Warcraft did to Warcraft 3. Having every Tom, Dick and Harry killing off key characters just ruins it, at least for me.

Let's see, for the Reyvateil they could expand on the Pran system Aika Online has.

Interaction (and of course, grindan) with your Reyvateil would change her personality and leads to a variety Cosmosphere. And that would be good reason for many people to play, gotta collect all the different personalities.

You could choose different factions like Church, Tenba or Shurelia's knights?

I agree with the part about not having the main characters in and killable, but it would be a nice surprise to run into them whilst crawling in the dungeon.

It sounds good but you still wouldn't really get to know them, mainly because it's an MMO and not a single player game. You interact with Misha, Aurica, Cloche etc. throughout the entire story whereas in this scenario you'd be limited to interacting with them only in their cosmosphere, which would probably be generic and lets be honest 9 levels aren't exactly going to last very long which isn't a strong point for an MMO.

>>4968201

You can say that about the Pran's but nobody here really cared about them apart from the fact that they had a loli following them at all times.

>You could choose different factions like Church, Tenba or Shurelia's knights?

Assuming the previous First era suggestion would be used you'd be limited to East and West too, which isn't much variation. And you'd still be stuck with 2 single 'classes'.

You only need 2 hearts to get either of Finnel or Saki's endings, so you would get the normal ending of whoever you have 2 with.

You interact with your Pran in Aika Online throughout the game (they participate in NPC conversations and they talk to you about once an hour) so I think they can make it so the RT isn't just a decoration that can launch nukes and more like a real companion you can talk to and befriend.

Admittedly conversation options are limited in Aika, but you can simply have more questions and/or have results of previous talks and her personality impact future conversations.

Certain conversations as well as storyline quest events may also unlock Cosmosphere areas. The CS system can probably be reworked to make it MMO-length.

Finished Saki normal ending. Shikata Akiko's comments for the storybook song were kind of ;_;

Saki is always energetic and airheaded, but something about her makes me sad; it's probably because her fated position is just too cruel.

Since she can't live for very long, she draws story books so that at least something of her existence won't disappear from the hearts of the people she meets ... It's heart-wrenching.

If this song can help you feel that sort of loneliness, I'll be happy it did its job.

Wall of text inc:

Something that just occurred to me, as I remember one Anon asking about how they explain the multiple personalities in AT3.

I don't know if they ever fully explain it in-game, but I think it actually has some real-life basis. Dissociative Identity Disorder is defined as disturbance of identity in which two or more separate and distinct personality states (or identities) control the individual's behavior at different times. When under the control of one identity, the person is usually unable to remember some of the events that occurred while other personalities were in control. The different identities, referred to as alters, may exhibit differences in speech, mannerisms, attitudes, and thoughts. The alters may even differ in "physical" properties such as allergies, right-or-left handedness, or the need for eyeglass prescriptions.

If we take this, apply it to AT3, and assume that a sufficiently advanced technology, or magic, is responsible for the majority of the physical changes (body and clothing specifically), then I think it is a plausible explanation for the Reyvateil's multiple personas.

From the in-game dictionary once you've finished phase 3.

Gamma Sublimate

A type of Reyvateil that is neither an origin nor a pure-blooded beta. Developed by Arkia, the development project was stopped after producing a single unit.

That single unit is Saki. A Gamma Sublimate is, in most ways, indistinguishable from a Beta. However, the maximum frequency of her Cosmosphere is set much higher than that of a normal Reyvateil. To put it in terms of Dive levels, their cosmosphere goes to about level 24. However, since humans can't make it that far, it's not practical to Dive beyond level 9, anyway. Since Gammas are still in the prototype phase and everything is experimental, there aren't many tools yet that support their features. For example, it would probably be impossible to draw out the performance of a Gamma without successfully diving into the cosmosphere beyond level 9. Gammas support having many personalities in the same body, but the maintenance tools to support this are incomplete, so it's difficult to administer.

Saki is being used in this rather imperfect condition because she was developed as emergency support for a particular plan. That plan was the effort to pacify Ar Ru in order to defeat the Antibodies.

The Gammas, with their very high spiritual base frequencies, can't use the same SH server as the other Betas. So, Gammas have a separate, special song server. To cut to the chase, that server exists in the Origin Tilia's Binary Field. Tilia serves to support Saki's β-6D function. As a result, when Arkia released a virus in the Betas' SH server, Saki was the only Reyvateil to be unaffected.

That doesn't explain Finnel, though. I need to get farther. I'm sure this is on the Internet somewhere else, too, but eh.

Ar_Ru is a somewhat special case, as she's essentially just a personality that's been given a body, and she has a unique ability. She was originally created by synthesising the H-waves of Ar Ciel's main Antibody into a Reyvateil, which was supposed to allow people to communicate with the Will of Ar Ciel, as some clever person figured out the Sea of Death was Ar Ciel's way of trying to wipe humans out so it could start again.

The Reyvateil Ar_Ru, predictable, went batshit insane, and killed loads of people, before eventually getting killed herself. However, being put into the body of a Reyvateil allowed her to somehow live on by invading other Reyvateil's Cosmospheres, and living in there. Finnel was a victim of this, which is probably why she can change personalities, although I don't think this has fully been confirmed. The body Ar_Ru has, even in her appearance in the games, is made entirely of H-Waves that have been synthesised a certain what, which is why she can be absorbed into Tilia and become a separate personality for her.

I can understand that Ar Ru consists of H-waves and that she can be absorbed since she isn't really a physical creation but how does that explain Tilia's ability of completely changing her appearance to change into Ar Ru? H-waves being manipulated to manifest clothes I can understand but I don't understand how they can be used to change a person completely, both appearance and personality wise.

That's never actually explained. How appearance changes during personality change isn't explicitly explained for even Saki.

Will either have to wait and hope it's explained in Toukousphere. I've got a feeling they'll end up saying it's the same principal as the clothes from the other games, and they're not getting real bodies. Will almost definitely be some sort of cop-out answer.

I think Croix left his testicles in his other set of pants when Phase 2 started.

My memory is absolutely hideous so I'm missing a few points.
Kureha wanted to use Suzunomia as a mean to communicate with Ar Ru or something like that. So Ayatane made a deal with her, he'd grant her a body in exchange for I don't remember well what. And how could Ayatane get body for Suzunomia? By stuffing multiple personas into Finnel and make everyone pick on her, thus destroying her spirit from inside and outside. And for when Finnel is weak enough, Suzunomia can take over her body.

We need scans for the AT3 side material ASAP.

I'm using ZeroGS. It saves screenshots in .jpg and actually shows sprites/portaits correctly at the cost of sprites getting a black border around them. GSdx randomly has parts of the sprites/portraits missing and only saves screenshots in .bmp which is extra effort going into Paint to save as .jpg.

Are Cloche/Luca generally meant to be under levelled? Croix and Cocona are level 30 whilst Cloche and Luca are stuck at 12. They're more than fine in fights but it just looks so odd after playing AT1 and having them level normally with you..

Also these 'trials' that I need to do to get keys for the Infelsphere are getting pretty tedious.

>>	Anonymous Tue Apr 27 04:23:36 2010 No.4982521 >>4982504 Use those D-Crystals you pick up to level your Revyateils. At the end of the game your vanguards should be around early~mid 60s while your Reyvateils are Lv99.

>>	Anonymous Tue Apr 27 04:26:36 2010 No.4982531 >>4982521 I have. I can only put 6 in the bath and using the best crystals I have only brings them up to level 12. Most of the ones in the shops I've seen so far are pretty shitty too so I guess that doesn't help.

>>	Anonymous Tue Apr 27 04:27:36 2010 No.4982538 >>4982531 You're supposed to buy those crystals, no matter how shitty they are, they increase your Reyvateil's levels. Those additional stats don't really matter anyway, until you get the high tier ones.

>>	Anonymous Tue Apr 27 04:30:36 2010 No.4982543 >>4982538 That's what I'm saying though, the ones I've found are better than the ones in the shop, at least from what I've seen. I'll search around tomorrow and see if I can find better crystals though, too tired to even bother right now.

>>	Anonymous Tue Apr 27 04:31:36 2010 No.4982547 >>4982543 Those crystals are unique and there's only one of each in the game. Collecting all of them nets you Lv99, not sure if they're missable though.

Anonymous Tue Apr 27 04:37:36 2010 No.4982571

You keep the levels you gain from crystals, as long as you have used the crystal once. (Also, as long as one reyvateil has used a crystal, the levels will be applied to the others when they rejoin the party and use some different ones.) That's why you should buy even the crappiest ones.

>>	Anonymous Tue Apr 27 04:42:36 2010 No.4982593 >>4982571 And now I feel stupid. I thought it was just a passive bonus you got from using higher quality crystals. Thanks for the explanation.

>>	Anonymous Tue Apr 27 10:49:36 2010 No.4984041 I can't go past level 5 before being locked into a route on AT2, correct?

>>	Anomynous Tue Apr 27 10:58:36 2010 No.4984064 >>4984041 In cosmospheres, yes. There's a big, obvious "Are you sure" like question before going further, so you should be fine.

>>4984069
What? No, I was pretty sure that level 5 "ends" with Miros stabbing Kuroaki and him being all "bawww your poor little girl I know you don't really hate me so this doesn't hurt at all", and then you get kicked out, and if you go back in, Ayatane will pop the question. And then level 6 is the Jacqli vs. Miros level.

So yeah, if you say yes to anyone's "do you want to keep going?" at level 5, you're locked onto their ending. And if you don't do that with anyone, Cocona ending.

>>	Anonymous Tue Apr 27 13:10:36 2010 No.4984653 >>4984064 >>4984069 Thanks. I'm planning on finishing up with them at level 4 then I can just dive into Jakuri/Cloche at the ending and get 3 of the endings.
