This weekend is to summon your broker on their day off and ask them to explain all this Gamestop nonsense. It’s also about going to the big city and practicing your alchemy skills in shorts.

Along with a game I can not name, but I’m sure it will attract at least nine of you, my weekend will be chock full of material collection, order filling, and monster killing in that order. The latest game in Cow Tecmo’s long running series Atelier series has arrived, Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy. This is the first numbered sequel in the series since 2007 Atelier Iris 3, and it’s something else. The character models are gorgeous, they added swimming to the game, so the random swimsuit DLC finally makes sense. And the dynamic new combat system is really fun to look at.

Between this and that other game, I find myself with an abundance of Japanese role-playing games. That’s a nice amount to have.

What about you people? What are you playing this weekend?
