Arfoire returns. Pirachu too.
cool
There has never been a good Neptunia game.
>>739724817so?
>>739724452>That robotabsolute sex, about time we got some sexy female robots in these games.
>>739724817So much wasted potential. These characters are a goldmine of potential but they are trapped in possibly the worst shovelware series that's still going.
Neptunia games are kusoge.

>>739724923yeah thats the appeal whats your point
Imagine if Neptunia games had an actual budget and dev team, maybe something like Dragon Quest or similar.
>>739724817VII was close, was the first time they actually put in alright production values.
>>739724452>PIRACY LE BAD>GACHA LE GOOD>CENSOR US HARDER SNOYTENDO-SAMA!Get a new script already Compa, this one's getting old.
>>739725098It still annoys me that the series had been steadily improving over time, and V-II was finally at least a mediocre JRPG able to stand on its own merits, and then it seems like the developers just immediately gave up afterwards instead of iterating on that.>Man, that was actually a lot of work, I don't want to ever do that shit again. Let's just make half-assed spinoffs from now on.
>>739724452>Neptune HDD different colorSo there's hope the old versions are in the game
>>739725980yea I'm note sure what happened. They greenlit a metric ton of shitty spinoffs right as I thought they were building credibility
>>739725980They did iterate on that, just not in Neptunia itself. Death end re;Quest uses a variant of that system, with the enemy launching "pinball" mechanics from Mugen Souls added and a mindscrewing conspiracy-fueled story. Mary Skelter and Tokyo Clanpool steadily improved on the dungeon crawling area. Seven Pirates and Castle Panzers took the fanservice to the hilt and experimented with a more traditional Dragon Quest-style JRPG. It seems more like Compile Heart from 2016-20 mainly used Neptunia as a piggybank to fund passion projects.
should I make this my first neptunia game?Dont care if its shit Im just really curious
>>739724452does this game not get repetitive? playing rebirth1, first few dungeons were okay but now it feels so repetitive. Is it just same 10+ hours of repeating same combat loop? Currently fighting last boss of 2nd chapter I believe.
>>739726685Correcting myself here. Castle Panzers actually uses the Victory/Fairy Fencer system, it's just Seven Pirates that is a traditional turn-based JRPG.My bad.
>>739724817I enjoyed VII. The writing was hilarious
>>739724452i don't know who the evil woman is, but she looks sexo.
>>739727382Piracy as viewed by Compile Heart as a literal Satanic figure bringing death and destruction to Gamindustri.No, they are totally not biased, what makes you think that?
>>739724452censored crap
>>739724452Sweaty Steamy Sexs With PirachuArfoire can watch too I guess...
Reminder there going to be no swimsuits, kindly thank your "allies"
>>739724817I liked rebirth 1 and VIIShame that this series was let to die, even more of a shame was that tsunako wasted her entire career on this shit and date a live
Sex?
>>739731274does that gun use chibis as ammo?
cute
>>739724452I hope Sony censors the absolute fuck out of the game just because I want to see if Compile will continue to lick their san francisco shit-smeared boots and give them a big smile as they thank based Sony for allowing them the privilege of publishing on Playstation.
>>739724452Couldn't care less about Neptune for modern audiences
>>739732313Sony's the lesser evil by now. Nintendo wouldn't let them publish the Re;Birth trilogy in the west (heavily sabotaging attempts to build a base for Neptunia on Nintendo consoles) and even banned swimsuits from Neptunia Riders, and Steam banned a censored version of Tokyo Clanpool. Sony at least let them have their Teen-rated Vita trilogy from a decade ago. Nintendo wouldn't even let them have that and I have a feeling that Steam would ban them if they were submitted today too (luckily they're already on there with most of the spinoffs. Steam DEFINITELY would ban Action Unleashed now).Things have gotten way worse since the turn of the decade to the point I don't think any of Compile Heart's pre-2020 backlog would be fully safe to publish on modern platforms.
>>739732709>and even banned swimsuits from Neptunia Ridersthis is so weird because both vs sisters and game maker still have their swimsuit dlcs available in the west
>>739724817The original Mk2 was alright. It was nothing ground breaking but it delivered on the premise of the original game with a serviceable brand new engine and assets. The problem is that they proceeded to recycle the engine and assets for the next decade or so and they lost their impact, but believe me, back in 2012 and coming off the 1st PS3 game, it was like magic.
>>739724452>SashuuShorthand for "service termination", guess the theme this time around is around dying online games? Are we gonna get a Concord/SKG reference?>Baddo ManaObviously "bad manners", probably also related to online gaming.>TenbaichuuFrom "tenbaiya" (scalper)>SedoriNo idea what this one's referencing>Kyohou Aori"Kyohou" literally means fake news, and aori is probably from "aoru" which is basically ragebaiting/provoking someone, so she's basically a troll, her face on the top right does kinda looks like she's that type of character.
>>739734065>>Sedori>No idea what this one's referencingFrom what I could find, it's for せどり which is just buying cheap things, either used or on sale, and then reselling them at a higher price for profit. It's often compared to tenbaiya as a less morally dubious version, which is probably why these two characters are paired together. Not sure why the loli is even a villain, though.
>>739724452Not seeing 5pb., interest remains minimal.
>>7397362975pb is dead.
Arfoire recruits bad girls by offering them hamsters. It's super effective
>>739736338Massive downgrade
>>739724817true, but the crap we got has some gold in them
>>739736338
Speaking of massive downgrades...>Literally cut Compa's sweater puppies off
>>739736418What the actual fuck is this? Even ignoring the bullshit that is the tits nerf, that outfit is fucking atrocious and her hair was massively downgraded.
>>739736418New design looks better, old has that no soul look of old school Tsunsko.
>>739735645Makes sense
>>739724452>DEI bloomers on the loliIt's all so tiring. I expect we get camera censorship or even void censorship too. Neptunia is DEAD.
>>739736418left looks like neptune soul, right looks like date alive kimota slop
>>739727132You'll get EXE drives eventually, iirc it's level 25ish or 30, something like that. They don't make the combat more strategic, but they're super moves that drastically cut down the time it takes to kill enemies and bosses.If you don't like simplistic combat with item grindan and numbers going up, that doesn't really change though. It just gets faster.
I heard the new Neptunia game is set in an islamic country
>>739724452who cares about chinkslop? play real japanese games
>>739728936this released on the switch but not in any other console platform, it was also banned by steam btwhope you keep farming that bad karma
>>739732313already happened with scar lead salvation lolthat by the way was the game they told everyone to buy pis5s for after lying about nintendo japan banning them
>>739737880They need a new goddess to account for the series s. Quite literally an update is needed because it's not the ps3 era anymore.
>>739738196isn't that what this game has? there's a goddess for both series x/s
>>739736418I think the costume is fine, though Compa sweater puppies were absolutely one of her charm points.Odd change to make when Vert is right there anyways.>>739736536Old school design is pic rel though.I like RB Compa on the left though, something about her expression and pose really feels like the kind of character she is supposed to be. VII also didn't capture it quite well.
>>739736647thanks, at least combats getting quicker is a relief. Are later games the same or better? I might just watch story on youtube and skip to later games
>>739738012Western guidelines (That nintendo does have) affects JP releases that want to release globally retard
Compa is now an even girlier girl, with frillsher girlfriend Iffy will be even more tomboyishly chuuni
>>739738551which is why games should never leave japan from now on, the west is nothing but shitskins that cant buy anything anyway
>>739738568>Compa is now an even girlier girl, with frillsWhich is what makes the costume design actually fitting enough. Compa is a very girly girl, from her taste and mannerisms all the way into her interests, skills and even career choice. If you had a girl power ranking, she would be always on top.
>>739738598japan otaku are playing blue archive and not purchasing actual ecchi games, so uh good luck getting publishers to want to keep their games japan exclusive lmao
>>739738709>already going mask off and going full gachaslop shillinglmfaokeep building that bad karma btw
>>739734065Predict their trooncalized names
>>739738745>Making shit up in your head to get mad at As expected from nintengaf
>>739738709How much more sales would these games get if we banned Blue Archive? Double? Triple? It genuinely sickens me to see so many otakus in both Japan and the west fall for this disgusting and tame gook skinsuit scammer.
>>739738984None?People aren't not playing Nep games because gacha exist, they just simply aren't playing them
>>739738436The combat system is pretty much the same through to VII. The power curve just gets flatter in later games.
>>739738984Anon, gachaslop is not even making much money anymore, even sega of all people is pulling out of it from how little the return on investment is.Chinks speedran 2 decades of westoid AAA budget inflation in like 5 years by making so many genchink clones that people will now refuse to play anything less, which locks out 99% of the companies out of being able to make a profitable gacha, and the remaining 1% don't see much return of investment due to requiring gorillions to even get off the ground.
