Is this by the same devs as Atelier Iris 2?Ar Tonelico 2 is a truly special game, its sad that not many people have played it and even sadder that the translation was full of aged memes and made up jokes that did not actually fit the real dialog in many scenes. But with the fan patch its something I would always recommend. a Great JRPG with the best soundtrack in gaming.

That game was kinda B-tier, but it had a lot of charm.
its a GUST title yes, but its got a different director. So what makes the game interesting is that the director is Tsuchiya Akira, was head of the GUST sound team. What does this mean? well the insane genius invented an entire language for the game universe, essentially spells are "sung" and the words have power, this means that from a game mechanic standpoint you have to protect you casters so they can sing, the longer they sing the more powerful the spell will be. The lore of why this works this way is super deep, I wont get too deep into it but essentially they sing code to make a program run and that results in a spell (they also have different testament's which changes the language used to connect to separate towers, like I said super deep). I mean the dude wrote an entire language and had people sing it just for the series so everything is explained... unless you play the original translation because they butchered it.
also being head of sound means that GUST bring there big guns to the videogame soundtrack for example
hell even the tracks that never made it into the game (because the PS2 disc was too small) are insane
the artwork for the game is fantastic too, it takes place in the 2nd tower (the first game takes place on the 1st) and these are floating bastions of humanity floating above the ruined world below as they slowly decay, run by ancient programs no one really understands.
could not recommend enough
