Arturia Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Just got my Platinum and would have to say this game is a 5. Its not too hard once u know how to use the battle system as u can breeze threw it once u start NG+. The only thing that took long was getting the endings and the 100hr trophy, otherwise it was fairly easy and fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superpj Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Thanks for your input Syaoran369. How long did it take you to get the plat ? I can see from your trophy card that you're a big rpg fan : which rpg from your collection would you say has the same difficulty as Tonelico ?

Arturia Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Thanks for your input Syaoran369. How long did it take you to get the plat ? I can see from your trophy card that you're a big rpg fan : which rpg from your collection would you say has the same difficulty as Tonelico ? I would say 105Hrs or so give or take. I probably could have finished it faster but with that 100hr trophy i took my time lol Not to mention i was enjoying it to no ends with each ending. I gotta say that i am a RPG fan for sure If i were to pick one that was the same difficulty as this, i would say Trinity Soul of Zill O'll, only because they both have a nice storyline and loved them but they both have one trophy that tends to be a pain, trinity = lvl 99, ar tonelico = 100hr gameplay I see u urself are a fan of J-Games from ur trophy card as well, not to mention some insane hard ones to plat: SO and NG2.

stgermain Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I gave this game a four. It is not difficult, just time consuming. If it weren't for the 100 hour trophy, I could have finished in 70 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiteTriEdge Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 4 also very straightforward and linear game. The only thing that made me mad from the trophies are the 100 hours and Saki's 100% cosmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superpj Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Just got the plat and I give it a 7. Very time-consuming + a lot of missable trophies. Like in Atelier Rorona you must save in the right places and branch off for different endings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makino Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 (edited) Just platted this, I say its around a 3-4, but gave it a 4 on the poll. Nothing really that difficult just time consuming. The 100 hr trophy and treasure chest trophy is the only tricky trophies I found, but IF you actually take the time to go through every section of the dungeons, there is no reason you can't get all the chests even without a guide. The multiple endings and cosmosphere seems overwhelming at first, but with New game+ with the option to choose different start points really makes this a breeze. I got all the trophies with the exception of the 100hr trophy in about 70hrs. Edited April 13, 2011 by Makino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElixirelDaath Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Gave it a 2. This was the easiest rpg that I have 100% thus far. If you use a walkthrough, it's nothing more than an exercise in reading; there is virtually no skill involved. Battle system is retartedly easy, and to top it off you can play on easy as well.

little_thief Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I'm also going to give it a 4/10. It's not very difficult, just time consuming. The treasure chest trophy and the 100% for cosmosphere trophies can be difficult if you're not using a walkthrough. The only other thing I found difficult was keeping track of my saves and figuring out where to pick up on each playthrough, but that's probably just my lack of organization.

BF_36 Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Giving this a solid four. Not really difficult, just time consuming in a not particularly fun way. The 100 hour trophy is obnoxious as with most trophies of that nature and the Comsophere completion is full of hidden pitfalls and can prove to be very frustrating, so just be extra, extra vigilant when going for 'Saki's Groom' you can't afford to be complacent here *cough* Otherwise yeah, not a particularly fun Plat and not a particularly good game.

Jiggaloj Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 I rate this a 4. If it weren't for walkthroughs, this would be rated higher. Nothing is really too hard. There are a lot of missables in this game that may prevent you from getting platinum. Overall it was an easy plat using the guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadSashimi Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Just got the platinum today. Difficulty isn't really an issue when I comes to this platinum with a few exceptions. A huge majority of the trophies are story related, however because of multiple endings and different heart point distributions, You WILL Have to replay the game a few times. The 100% CS trophies, excluding Tyria's, and the "The Master of Unlocking" trophy, are again, not difficult. If you miss a certain scene, or missed a chest however. Expect another playthrough. Worst of all trophies, the 'Our Valued Customer" requires you to have played this game for 100 hours. I left the game running overnight. That said and done, I give it a 5. Not difficult, not a walk in the park. Was it worth it? Hell Yeah ;D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XNebula Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 I'm going to settle on a 5. There are a few things that you can fumble up and cause you to have to play the game again while going for platinum. Overall though this game is pretty good, and it was my first Ar Tonelico game. Now I want to play the previous ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisty123 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 i gave this a 5, i was one of the silly ones who did not read a guide for this at the start so my total time was around 160 hours but the game was not too hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidus525 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I gave it a 5 , very time consuming , not too hard , sakis groom trophy can be tricky if you mess up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z0mbieK1llers Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Giving this a 4 it took 50 hours to get all trophies except for 100 hours play time, idling console helps for that though. If you turn the difficulty to say then each of the 2 full runs can be done in 15 hours each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMikeGaum Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Gave it a 4... The game is easy even on the hard setting and just need some micromanagement so you don't miss anything. I actually finished everything in under 60 hours and had to keep the game on for the remainder of the last trophy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NovaSD Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 4, mainly because of the missable trophies (the cosmosphere related trophies). The gameplay is very basic so there is no combat related difficulty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch061 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Throw me into the 4 category. I didn't use a guide for my first playthrough, but still did nothing that slowed my progress too much (missed some treasure chests, which was a pain). I haven't quite finished the plat, but I have all the missable trophies, so it's just a matter of time. Also, I think there is a way you can manipulate the time system, although I haven't quite figured out how yet. When I saved at 10:45 PM last night, I was at 48 hours. When I saved again at 11:06 PM, I was at 55 hours. If I can figure it out, I'll let you know. All in all, this was a good game, and easily my favorite traditional JRPG that has been brought over by NIS. I'm glad I found it for relatively cheap.

Zeheart Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 gave this a 5 not a very hard game to plat just takes time for the 100hr trophy and the endings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoguru Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I'm going to give this a 4. It's not difficult at all and in fact the last trophy I got was the 100 hour one since I was done with everything else about 80 hours in (actual time around 60 since I left it on at some points before to advance towards the trophy).

ShinYagami13 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 a LOT of walking, a LOT of talking & having to watch the ending credits 8 times it was boring to death...gave it a 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppleKratue Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I voted a 5. It would have been a 4, if I hadn't messed up in Saki's CS. Nevertheless, managing between save files is the key to platinum and saving about 50 hours playing again bored because you have seen already everything. Without a guide this is more like a 7, because you can also miss some treasure chests. Like many others, my last trophy was the 100 hour one and I had to leave the PS3 on idle for about 15 hours.

Tsukuyomi17 Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I give it a 6. Not hard at all, but it does take time. One trophy requires the player to play for 100h. Though it's very doable when you notice that the game needs several playtroughs to plat. I actually finished everything in about 80h, had to wait an extra 20h for the 100h trophy.
