I've been waiting for this. For a while I thought the Ar tonelico franchise is gone, and they just tell me the dream won't end.

Ar no Surge RPG Linked to Ar Tonelico With Shurelia's Return

Game developer Gust confirmed more ties between its upcoming PlayStation 3 role-playing game Ar no Surge ~Umareizuru Hoshi e Inoru Uta~ and its earlier Ar Tonelico RPGs.

Ar no Surge director Akira Tsuchiya also worked on Ar Tonelico, and administrator Shurelia from the first Ar Tonelico PlayStation 2 game, 2006's Ar Tonelico : Melody of Elemia (Aru toneriko: Sekai no Owari de Utai Tsudzukeru Shōjo), will play a major role in Ar no Surge's story.

Is anyone else playing this thing...?

It is flat out insane. Half of it is tsundere harem tropes, and the other half feels like it was written by Tolstoy after somebody tied him to a chair and held his eyes open, Clockwork Orange style, and forced him to watch 2001: A Space Odyssey 500 times in a row.

A new version when we still don't see the normal one?

To be honest I still have to play Ar Tonelico 3 Still, I hope that they will bring this one here.....sooner or later.

It sounds like both of these are in preparation for a western release. I'm hoping they do a major rework of Ceil, honestly.

Without its predecessor, Ar No Surge is incoherent. You won't have the slightest clue what's going on. But Ceil in its present state could never be released in the west; it's this weird slow game about reading in barcodes and sitting around and waiting. I love the setting, characters, and music, and I never got anywhere with it at all.

I remember they did say that Ar Nosurge was made to be a standalone game, so I guess it's not that much of a trouble. Also with the Ar tonelico knowledge I have I hope it won't be confusing. By the way, good news:

Tecmo Koei announces Ar Nosurge: Ode to an Unborn Star for PS3 in Europe!


Hopefully there won't be any DLC, since I can't buy digital content from EU.

^Yeah, I remember something like that as well.

Although, If I recall right, one character from that game will be in this one.

Anyway, I'm happy to see that this game will come in Europe.

Yeah, no. No that's not even remotely true. It's a direct sequel, and knowledge of all characters and their past relationships is assumed. In one path you're literally controlling the same character you were in the first game, and it picks up right where the first game left off. There are (very) short recaps, but if you don't know the original you're going to be left scratching your head.

There is a fairly short segment near the end that takes place in the world of Ar Tonelico 1, but that game's like 10 years old now. I beat it and I still didn't remember any of the references.

^You mean one of the heroines, right?

But after read what you wrote......I wonder how they expect us to understand the story without knowing those things from the prequel.

Sure, I understand that there are those recaps, but from what you told us, seem to me that they don't help us at all.

Bandai Namco and Tecmo Koei have been awesome with the localization this year. Now the only thing left is bugging them about the Ciel offline game.
