Games like this are why I love RPGs. I will never give up on my dreams. Atelier Sophie 2 is thus far, the highlight of the Atelier series to me and easily the best of all the mysterious games. Pretty much everything that was good about the first 3 games was combined in this game with pretty much none of the stuff that didn’t really work, along with the most fun combat and crafting system of the series. On top of that, the writing is top notch, with a lot of touching and meaningful character moments and an absolutely stellar ending that had me tearing up. This is an incredible experience and one of the most fun games I have ever played. I’ll start by talking about the gameplay. This game is honestly just a blast to play, with the world being probably the most fun to explore yet, and does the interconnected “open” world aspect a lot better than Firis did. Gathering is pretty fun with a lot of minigames for gathering some of the highest quality materials to get the best stuff to use for crafting. Crafting this time around is also probably my favorite, I probably spent like 10+ hours of this game just optimizing crafting and trait transferring to make the most powerful weapons and gear. Once you get catalysts you really get the ability to do some crazy things to make some super powerful weapons. I had a character who had significantly reduced wait time after every turn along with massive critical hit damage and rate that could just truck enemies on the highest difficulty by endgame because of her skillset. Seriously, it’s a lot of fun just getting 3 turns in a row to truck the enemy (ignore discord audio) There’s also really cool teamup features here that let you constantly swap between your frontline and backline members to get extra attacks off if you have the resource bar that lets you do it, and the ability to shield teammates and take reduced damage as well. These systems are a lot of fun to optimize and make even the combat of this game a lot of fun to experiment with. I focused mainly on crafting and optimizing gear over bombs this time around, but the few bombs I did optimize were also pretty dang strong and also fun to use. This is definitely one of the most fun turn based systems I have played just because of the amount of options you have and how each boss has its own unique aura gimmick you have to figure out. Having bosses not just roll over is really cool actually. The writing quality of this game is also great, in the sense that I feel like I came to love almost every important character in this game. Sophie was already beloved because of the previous 3 mysterious games, but Ramizel especially really came out of nowhere to probably easily be one of my top 3 characters in this series. I pretty much love all of her significant moments in this game and think she’s just a super fun character in general and I absolutely love how her arc connects to Sophie and everything comes full circle. I really loved the bro dynamic between Olias and Diebold and think they were great as well, and Sophie was still just as peak as always in this game. I also loved learning more about Plachta’s past. And honestly, Elvira was also a really fun and good character! This game just has such a fun cast that I really enjoyed this time around and I found the main conflict, while somewhat simple, still very compelling. Makes me want to never give up on my dreams even as a jaded 28 year old so maybe I’ll finally start trying again with YouTube content LOL The OST in this game is also really really great. A lot of very awesome vocal themes and beautiful environment themes that really enhance the experience. General quality of life features were also improved in this game from previous games, there isn’t really any frustrating aspect to this game that I can remember, pretty much everything was fun to do and fun to play. I genuinely have zero complaints about this game. Sucks that this series is pretty niche outside of maybe Ryza but hopefully Yumia can fix that somewhat and people will be interested in the earlier games because this one was really really good. I can see why it’s the fan favorite because I 100% agree this game is awesome. I’d 100% recommend this game and preceding trilogy to anyone who enjoyed the genre, because this game cracked my top 15 all time and I would love if more people played it.

Disregard my playtime; I've completed the game on another platform. By far the BEST Atelier game with a huge lead over the others. The alchemy system is an extremely satisfying puzzle, item collection and exploration is truly meaningful, and the combat is extremely well done. Everything is intertwined in such a way that you seamlessly transition between gameplay modes, and the game flows extremely well. One weak point might be the overall story, but honestly it's fine. If it were an anime i'd say it's a 7/10 but the gameplay systems hard carry making Atelier Sophie 2 one of the best games I've ever played. Buy it NOW

Easily one of the best Atelier games. You don't have to play Sophie 1 in order to play this one; but you will be missing out a little bit on the relationship between Sophie and Plachta. At the time of this review, it's currently the last Atelier game that's properly turn-based. But thankfully it is the best iteration of proper turn-based combat in Atelier games, along with a really robust crafting system that improved upon the previous iterations within the Mysterious' sub-series.

If you plan to play this on the deck, you might want to reconsider it, the game seems to have a nasty habit of permafreezing on loading screens, potentially causing you to lose progress, about 50/50 chance usually, with some areas its even more likely Anyway, with that out of the way, it's a pretty good game, though the ingame info could use some polish, as it has a tendency to send you to the wrong places for certain materials, like saying a certain boss drops silver crystals, when it doesn't. Still, i mostly enjoyed my time with this game

It's an amazing game! It was such an emotional yet joyful experience with Sophie on this Journey. The turn-based game-play and alchemy system were fun. And Sophie is just as cute as she was before! Always cherish your dreams...
