I actually enjoyed the game more so than any of their other neptunia games, I just wish it was a challenge so 4 players could actually come together to beat areas. If only they updated the game and made it super hard
It´s weird that i believe this type of more "action" gameplay fits more to the series than the turns RPG? The only thing i miss from the RPGs are the Supers and EXE animations.
They can still include them. Would really make the combat better. The biggest issue I had was the lack of weight to your attacks. You never feel like you’re hitting anything.
Great review! Yep, it's a neat game that is just hindered by it's performance issues. PS4 should be more than capable at running the game without trouble. According to fans, all the lag and technical bugs etc have been present since the Japanese release and were never fixed.
Thanks! I read about that when I did some research on it. I guess that means it's highly unlikely we'll see any patches for the English version then. A bit of a shame!
I still have hyper dementia neptuna for the PS3 unopened. This game looks really fun I'm a pick this up on PC when it comes out next year. I meant Hyperdimension Neptunia.
I'm late but, to me, this is what a Neptunia game should look like nowadays! Maybe not all the Neptunia games but at least some you know? It changes from the other games and it looks really great to play! Feels like there is more "freedom" to move and it looks smooth! I like this way to play better
My bet about the free DLC is that they were promo items for the game. This game was released in February, 2017, in Japan, and then October 24, 2017, in the U.S. In between the DLC was released on October 10th, 2017 -- two weeks before the game, according to the PS Store. First, that gets awareness. Also, by downloading the four pieces, they could be using the "Foot-in-the-Door Technique," which works by getting somebody to say "yes," to a small request or to a favor about (Product X), at which point people tend to label themselves as "down with (Product X), and then, when a larger request is posed, as "Self-Perception Theory" explains, we tend to look back at our past behavior, regarding (Product X), if our attitudes are inaccessible from memory, to infer our attitudes about it. If we look back and remember we'd downloaded DLC for it, we'll assume we had developed a positive attitude toward it, thereby making it significantly more likely to purchase it. That's all Robert Cialdini stuff, except Self-Perception Theory, which he uses to explain the way the influence technique works. Shit like that comes to my mind, when such marketing questions are asked, having taught it for 15 years...
ps. on PS4 Pro latest system update frame rate was stable and I had no major glitches or crashes. European version tho so it's likely it has been patched before release. Then yep loading times are ehm... hard to forget. After the boot up tho no more loading screens!
Most if not all of Neptunia games are on sale right now for the holiday on PSN. I decided to get into the Neptunia games with VIIR. Would you recommend this game? Does it play like Diablo III or similar?
This was one of the better spinoffs, but wow I've never had lag or not being able to move glitch (the AI was just derpy sometimes) on ps4, but I didn't play it online.
I doubt they will release any DLC since well they haven't and were in January now. So apart from Cat Suits that's it. I enjoy the game however I wish that compile heart had tackled this instead of Tamsoft. I hated VS Zombies but loved Action Unleashed I'm pleased for me it's more like AU than Zombie. But I kinda wish the controls were more fine tuned. Like targeting IMO once u clicked R1 and a group attacks you it should just skip to each target until there Dead instead of you constantly having to to press R1. Also would of been nice if the reserve characters got exp as well, not just the main party. None of my reserve get exp. But yeah liked this but loved VII more so if anyone looks for a nep on PS4 to play I suggest VII first then Cyber
I upgraded everything, weapons and armor, I completed 100% quests, bought every item (99/99, 15/15 & 2/2) opened every chest, on level 160 on most characters, I'm waiting on going up until level 200 cause I think that's the max level before I can start new game plus and hoping I can unlock more outfits in the maps or the shops in new game plus, also the "issue" with being stuck from any boss, you press menu/pause and don't have to switch characters to continue fighting, yeah here's my question should I wait to reach max level to start new game plus? Please reply
Idek if I unlocked every outfit cause I think the Neptune outfit/ noire outfit/ blanc outfit/ vert outfit are in new game plus idk yet cause I opened every chest, picked every glowing item, beat all the bosses, and collected every item, made up to 7 million bells/money's, yeah idk if I was sopose to unlock the original outfits for the characters cause idk what's new game plus about
Does each class have different traits and stats than the others? Ex: neptune being a paladin and having more hp and def Uni being a thief so like good dmg high dps? Or are they all the same pretty much
Deus Ex Machina its on sale right now for $14.99. Have you been enjoying it? Is it still littered with game breaking lag and bugs? I really want to buy this for my wife and daughter but the performance problems have me concerned.
Hey there! A very random comment on such an old vid I'm sure but I wanted to comment on a more relevant post to what I was going to express/ask. Basically I wanted to ask which games between Megadimension VII, 4GO and Super Neptunia RPG should I get? I've watched all your reviews for these games respectively but in recent times with all three of these games being on sale right now on PS4 and my funds limited I wanted an opinion of one who very much delved into all these games. For context I'm not new to the Neptunia in playing both the 1st and 3rd Remakes on the Vita though those were years ago. Enjoyable experiences for sure but now that I have a console any of these would be my first console Neptunia experience. From what I understand VII is more akin to what Ive experienced from Neptunia so far which does not sound bad at all. Though in turn 4GO and SNRPG are completely different from the norm so to speak. They both looked interesting with SNRPG looking the least interesting to me but by no means bad. I feel I can't go wrong with VII as it's just a similar enhanced experience of what I've played but quite intrigued by 4GO for it's visuals and gameplay as well. If I had to get one at this very moment with these variables in mind what would you recommend? You can of course give your opinion in an "either or" manner as well should you find the need or willingness to. Sorry for asking a question like this when you've got thorough reviews of all these games but I just want a more recent opinion is all so sorry for the trouble should you see this post and thanks in advance! 😉
Nice Review. Performance on the PS4 Pro is not much better. Haven't tried boost mode yet. Sometimes it runs smooth, other times I have to reload the map to fix stuttering. It seems to get better when more enemies are defeated. Loading time from PS4 menu to in-game menu is 3 minutes and 10 seconds.
I hate the fact that there's a bug where no accessories or costumes can be bought only hair colors. Also my game has crashed twice. I've even had an enemy get stuck out of bounds Still like the game though i have almost gotten the platinum medal
A Proper Neptunia RPG with action based combat would KILL IT. I do not like spending money on micro transactions, but that one would get me. Give it to me. With all the weebs out there, the game would be a hit
Meanwhile with Ys VIII... I would have said the same thing as you though. I think it's a developer issue, they just don't invest in optimization like they used to.
I am at level 50 and well... it's a spin off in the same vein as Neptunia U but it's on ps4 with bells and whistles. For how I see it, it's meant to raise money after the switch to Unreal Engine. For new Neptunia players tho buy Neptunia VII without thinking twice! That's a little gem while this is a mediocre byproduct.. in my opinion the weakest in the series after VS Zombies. After all Neptunia is 50% game and 50% novel. Writing here is decent (but we expected "brilliant") and gameplay is ok but not Senran Kagura ok. Makes u laugh at times tho...
I can't get into this game From start up that 5 minute loading screen that im thinking is 100% fake but still unskippable. They go so hard for a gimmick a MMO without any online but fake the loading screens the hell?
