Atelier Marie Remake: The Alchemist of Salburg

in short: Atelier Marie Remake is a lovely remake of the original for a to high price. In long: I really like the original Marie, so seeing the game remade for a modern audience is great. I really would love it if we could get all the pre Rorona Atelier games on steam, some of them are among my favorite games of all time. ( please... I need Nikkie to be okay... ) The additions are fine by me, the guide and story menus are convienient additions that make the gameplay a lot more streamlined. I'm more neutral opposed to the lower difficulty, but since the very next game after the original Marie was made a lot easier, I understand they wouldn't want to keep the exp givout the original had. The chibi-ish artstyle is fine, but ony because the original looked fairly chibi. If the other games are being remade as well, I hope we won't be seeing chibi graphics from Atlier Judie onwards. It's mostly just the price that's a sticking point for me. 50 bucks is about the price I'd expect for a bundle of the first trillogy, but for 1 game it's a bit much. I'd wait for a sale if you're really interested in the game. As a remake itself I do really like hw it still is the same game, not a modern reinterpretation where you go on a massive journey, it really is a remake. In there, I also applaud keeping in stuff like the original enemies, like the bugs and lamias, since most of the modern 3d Atelier games feel like they try to be a bit to cutesy, and the ps1 and ps2 games had a lot more wild, random and "out-there" designs ( if you know you know ) Concluded: Get the game when it's on sale if you're interested in seeing where and how Atelier started. 7/10

8/10 fun short game. When you start the game you get the choice of playing the original Time Limited mode or the Unlimited Time mode, there are apparently 3 events that are locked if you don't play Time Limited, but you can go back in a ng+ and do them to my knowledge. The time limit might seem a bit tight at first, but I finished my first playthrough with over 200 days left, and that was with me not really being time efficient. There isn't really much of a story outside of just being told to get better at school, but I found all the character stories to be fun enough that there didn't need to be more story forced in.

It was fun, I beat it in one sitting. The crafting was neat and hopefully the games further on in this series go further in depth (this is the first one, and I started with the remake). The combat system was abysmal, and is part of what stopped me from replaying it to see other endings. I have no intention of participating in the game's combat ever again. I'm assuming the NG+ mechanic lets you see more events and get the remaining endings, but I saw ~65%+ of the events on my first run, and save scumming let me see two endings. I'll just look on youtube for the rest. Overall, the story was neat and it's worth at least one playthrough. Don't pay more than $20 for this game.

PSでの発売以来ですから約25年ぶりのプレイ…なのに驚くほど色々よく覚えていて、一周目・攻略サイト等も一切無しで最上エンド到達しちゃいました。それだけ印象深いゲームだったってことでしょうねえ。 ただそれだけにそれ以上プレイしようという気力が湧いてこず…

我只玩过炼金工房系列的两部游戏，分别是莱莎的炼金工房1、优米雅的炼金工房。在看到这款初代炼金工房游戏打折后，我就想购买、体验一下。 在游玩体验1个小时后，便选择了卸载。具体原因可能是由于我接触、游玩的同系列游戏比较少，还不太适应老版本游戏的核心玩法之一，即“限时、限制‘模式。 虽然也有”无限制模式“的存在，让玩家在体验游戏的同时，可以无需顾虑其他。但是在游玩这个模式的情况下，会缺少部分剧情/内容，所以对于”强迫症“玩家、想要完全体验所有内容的玩家来说，不太友好吧。 总之，我还是选择将这款游戏留在我的库存里，或许等到哪一天，遇到”游戏荒“的情况下，可以下载回来，继续体验一下。最后的最后，也是建议新玩家”三思而后行“，不要盲目购买游戏（狗头）。

모든 아틀리에 시리즈의 어머니.

爷童回！！！！！

기존 아틀리에 시리즈에 메인 퀘스트 빼고 서브 퀘스트로만 구성된 게임이라고 보면 됩니다. 졸업이라는 목표는 있지만 크게 와닿지는 않으며, 자잘한 서브퀘스트 진행하면서 레벨 올리고 재료 모아서 연금 하다보면 10시간 만에 엔딩에 도달합니다. 볼륨이 작기 때문에 정가에 구매하는건 추천하지 않고 할인때 사서 아틀리에 시리즈 맛보기용으로 한번 해보시면 되니다. 일반모드는 5년 시간제한 때문에 좀 쫓기는 느낌이니 다회차 할거 아니면 처음부터 무기한 모드 선택한 뒤에 동료들 키워가면서 이벤트 이것저것 보는게 나을것 같습니다. 아틀리에 시리즈 처음 해보는 분이라면 이것보다는 소피의 아틀리에2 를 좀더 추천드립니다. 라이자도 재미는 있는데 소피가 조금 더 나았습니다.

This was my first entry into the Atelier series, and it immediately made clear why these games are often associated with a cozy, slice-of-life atmosphere. The game captures a relaxed, almost therapeutic rhythm: gathering ingredients, crafting items, and slowly improving Marie’s workshop over the course of the academy assignment. That low-stakes structure gives the game a pleasant, laid-back vibe that is easy to settle into. That said, I found the characters and the story fairly underwhelming. While the game leans heavily on small character moments and everyday interactions, few of the personalities really stood out to me, and the narrative itself feels extremely light. It works as a framework for the gameplay loop, but not much more than that. The gameplay is also extremely simple by modern standards. Alchemy, gathering, and combat are all very straightforward, and most systems resolve quickly without requiring much strategy or experimentation. The various minigames are particularly shallow and feel more like small diversions than meaningful mechanics. However, it’s important to remember that this remake is based on a 1997 PlayStation game that essentially started the entire Atelier franchise. In that context, it’s clear Gust was experimenting with a new concept: a relaxing RPG focused on crafting and everyday life rather than epic world-saving stakes. From that perspective, the game is historically interesting, even if the results feel like a mixed bag today. Because of that, I would mainly recommend Atelier Marie to two types of players: - Fans of the series who want to experience where everything began. - Curious newcomers who can pick it up at a significant discount. That’s actually how I approached it, and at the right price it’s an enjoyable curiosity—a glimpse into the humble origins of one of JRPG’s coziest franchises.

畫風沒有舊版的好看，不過還是很好玩的，如果之後的版本也能有的話就更好了
