– Klaudia looks more mature now is because she’s been helping with work at her family business
– Atelier Ryza 2 will take place in a castle town that looks like a mix of Asian and western styles
– More focus in weather depictions compared to the first game

– When Ryza comes in contact with water she’ll also appear wet as well
– This actually comes from Blue Reflection, which showed when characters got rained on or while bathing
– Since you’ll get to swim in Atelier Ryza 2, you’ll get to practically explore any area you can see in the game
