Atelier Ryza might be last Atelier
I get to appreciate Atelier series just this year, but I'm definitely getting Atelier Ryza. What do you guys think?

There are prerequisites?! I think, the Atelier series can greatly modify and change the name, but it will not disappear without a trace.

Perhaps, I agree, but I’ll casually remind you about Telltale Games, where nothing, too, foreshadowed trouble.

yeah but Telltale Games was stupid because a issue with IP they manage to much license and they pay too mucho for that, and the game sold bad so RIP , this is not the case with Gust, Atelier is a budget game they maybe need sell aroun 100kcopy or less for make another game and survive , they always says "we need to sell at least one atelier per year and we are fine" , and each atelier sold https://barrelwisdom.com/info/gust-sales/

We're all wise after the event ;)

Some people want to live, not survive.

Someday everything happens for the first time.

Let me remind you that Gust belongs to the publisher, who... well, is hardly famous for his wisdom. In addition, if a more lucrative project than Atelier appears (hypothetically), it is logical to assume that Atelier will be "frozen", no?

They seem to acknowledged that being tied to the old formula will never get the franchise more popular. Going out and come back to the Atelier all the time and crafting repeatly will not gain many new fans. So this time they want to make it a more generic JRPG where you go on a journey and complete a story instead of the slice of alchemist life style.

I'm okay with this, though I hope the alchemy keeps its depth. My introduction to the Atelier series was the Iris trilogy, and Mana Khemia, back in the ps2 days. I never would have given the regular Atelier games a shot without the JRPG intro just because "Fluffy alchemy game" doesn't sound as appealing as it turned out to be.

Ну все. Начались трагичные предположения - "последняя игра, кошмар, все умрут". Ну сколько можно стенать по надуманным поводам?

I kind of doubt it. It seems to me that they have multiple teams working on multiple games at any one time. They did not drop everything in order to work on Ryza, but released multiple games while they were making it.

In the future, i expect them to make use of the resources(art assets, new code) they made when they developed Ryza, to make their other games.

It looks to me like they have 3 developer teams working on games.
one to make an atelier game each year
one that have been making ports each year, and is now focusing on mobile games
and one is essentially R&D with a less strict release schedule to make better assets that the two other teams can take advantage off later.
