Unskippable: Atelier Iris 3

Atelier Iris 3

Graham and Paul are going back to the PS2 for the month of August. There's a lot of games they missed.

Watch Video

That scene at the column of... uh dark would've been so much better with the Wilhelm Scream.

Incidentally this game does look kinda interesting, but the intro doesn't sell it all that well.
Also loved the Dragon Ball reference.

I thought we were watching this game, I guess they just look alike

 

[Starke]

Do Graham and Paul sound oddly stilted to anyone else through all of this?

 

[andersgeek]

Let me put it this way: Dafuq did I just watch?

Of all the weird intros this is probably Top Five material.

same company makes the ar toneleco and atiler series.

gah, this was so slow it gave me Eternal Sonata flashbacks.

Atelier: prime fodder for low-budget graphics on any system, cheery ass music, and inappropriate dressed "teenage" alchemists.

And I like them...Meruru's finally coming in Gamefly today! Please be better than this. Oh, PLEASE do FFX-2. PLEASE! It needs Unskippable closure.

"THIS GUY!"

...Nothing happens.

"This guy..."

...Still nothing happens.

Yup. Back in my day, we had to put up with blank loading screens that seemed to last forever! (*HACK-HACK-COUGH-COUGH*) [/oldgeezer]

Actually, for the record, people kept making PS2 games until early 2011...

By the way, now I want Jell-O too....

EDIT: Also, did that A8 discussion remind anyone else of this:
That or... Wait a second.... WAIT A SECOND....

So THIS is where that Aaaaaaaa Aaaaaaaa guy has been hiding all this time! We got him now, Jer!!!

 

[MonkeyPunch]

Wow that is literally one of the worst, empty and most banal intros I've ever seen.

 

[Aptspire]

3:05 that is what we call "Capoeira"

 

[Scarim Coral]

Jeez, that was only around 6 minutes? It felt like 30 minutes!!

 

[RaikuFA]

God this intro sucked balls this worst than other games made by this company.

Know whats worse? XPlay gave this one a good score while saying 2(which is tons better) was horrible.

 

[carnex]

Into to this games is meant to be atmospheric I suppose but failed greatly. On the other hand game is quite god with great fighting system.

 

[shiajun]

WTF happened in that intro? I'd like to know but.....I just saw a much of fly-by's of sprite characters and backgrounds, and some incoherent mess of dialogues. I think this is the worst one yet.

 

[Inuprince]

The previous Unskippables which had these Atelier games are among my favourites, but this one was just very lame, not because of Graham and Paul, this cutscene was basically empty and had no content to work with. Damn, 10 minutes ago, I was so happy to see, they finally did a new Unskippable with one of these games, I guess it's back to waiting for a better one

 

[leviadragon99]

Ohhh... yeah doesn't take a genius to tell this isn't the best example of the JRPG subgenre...

 

[JSW]

Congratulations on finding so many jokes to make about an intro in which absolutely nothing happens.
