Editorial policy and verification standards

Sources before certainty

For release dates, supported platforms and announced features, we prefer statements from Apog Labs, SHUEISHA GAMES and official store pages. We link those sources beside the article, and distinguish an announcement from something tested in a released build.

If official sources disagree, we look for a dated update rather than assuming that the most convenient answer is correct. A broad store release window and a more recent dated announcement can coexist; the article should explain that distinction.

Versions and community tips

A walkthrough should identify the build it was tested against and give enough detail to reproduce the result. We do not invent recipes, item coordinates, controls or performance numbers to fill gaps.

Community reports are leads, not automatically verified facts. A search snippet does not replace the full discussion or hands-on confirmation. If that is all we have, we label the limits. Demo instructions are archived separately from current-version advice when the difference matters.

Reviews and testing

We do not publish scores or personal-experience claims without actual testing. This launch edition contains source-based reference articles, not a hands-on review. Future testing should name the build and, for performance results, the hardware and conditions used.

Automated assistance and images

Automated assistance can help prepare drafts and original illustrations. It cannot establish that a mechanic works or that a location is correct. Material still needs a source check, and unresolved details stay unresolved.

Generated artwork is labeled as concept illustration. We do not present it as official artwork or gameplay. Article credits identify the publication; no fictional staff biographies or fabricated credentials are used.

Corrections and commercial interests

Send corrections to contact@atmosfar.org with a link and supporting evidence. We aim to correct factual errors and update an affected article’s checked date. A substantive correction should also explain the change rather than hiding the earlier mistake.

There are no paid placement claims, affiliate purchase links or display ads in this edition. If those are introduced, sponsored material and affiliate links must be labeled where they appear. A commercial relationship must not determine whether a platform or feature is described as confirmed.
