Is Atelier Iris awesome?

[Ichirou]

'Cuz I hear demi and Drinky talking about it once in a while, and Drinky treats it like his secret shame or something.

[demi]

If you love Sakura Taisen, you'll love Atelier Iris

[Mupepe]

yes. yes. yes.

I do love Sakura Taisen.  But Sakura Taisen is a strategy RPG with adventure segments.  I thought Atelier Iris was a straight-up RPG.  Or are you speaking strictly regarding homojapual content?

[demi]

Naw dude. It's not that japsexual.

[Ichirou]

Is it one of those menu-driven, stat-managing things?

what he said.

it's saccharine animu with a surprisingly in-depth alchemy system and FINALLY FAST FUCKING BATTLES THANK GOD

[Ichirou]

SACCHARINE ANIMU FTW

[Van Cruncheon]

the first one sucks, though

i liked 2 and 3

[Ichirou]

I didn't know there was a third one.  Or I knew, and I forgot.

Would you recommend them to a japafag such as I?
