I'm really digging the first one on Switch despite it's flaws. Pre-ordered this one already. I can usually look past frame rate issues for the most part so hoping that's the case here too.
This is a interesting series but I find the second game a mixed bag because on one hand it's a shorter game over the first one and even though one doesn't need to play the first game it's kinda necessary to be able to understand the complex story. I should also say that no doubt a third game will be coming out to help wrap things up so people need to keep that in mind.
It's a real shame, since I generally enjoy Compile Heart games, but I will not be supporting their Switch releases anymore. They've made it painfully clear that they have no desire to spend any amount of time optimizing their games for the system. Everything they've released on Switch has had serious performance issues or is a broken mess.
Have you checked Neptunia X Senran Kagura Ninja Wars on Switch? It runs quite well even though frame rate drops on some parts (particularly on cinematic attacks)
when it comes to Idea Factory, I think Otome games, I never knew they made JRPGs but with their strong VN/Otome game history, it makes sense this game has VN elements
I think this game has the option to disable some shadow renders, although it doesn't improve the frame rate that much. Imo ports like these are still playable despite flaws, it's not like Deadly Premonition 2
I have one question. During the combat I noticed you can achieve overkill when defeating an enemy. Do you get extra drops or is there some other benefit to it?
I saw the series on the Nintendo eShop and I was curious about them and wanted to give them shot but they looked like another one of those cheap, basic, fan service heavy JRPGS that's floating around. Seeing that the story's good do y'all recommend waiting and picking this this up at a good discount price?
I thought the same but upon beating the game I can say the story got me so wrapped up and the music is very good in this game, the characters are so enjoyable and overall a 8/10 for me
The 3d models are still the censored versions from the Sony version, not uncensored like steam. I'M SO SICK OF SONY RUINING MULTIPLATFORM GAMES WITH CENSORSHIP. It's to the point if its multiplatform with don't I have to search title censored to check, and 8 out of 10 it is. Never purchase censored games.,let the people puritans who cry for censored art on resetera & Twitter buy it(they never do) then maybe companies will learn who their customers are
I'm a jrpg kinda guy however this game isn't for me. Hope they fix the performance with patches for the people who do want this game. Appreciate the awesome review tho!
I'm so glad I waited. I swear....I am beginning to only trust Nintendo and smaller indies for release day purchases anymore. These games are just not running on the switch yet they continue to throw it out not ready anyways
Im praying for an update Iffy should do a better job these games are coveted and have a following i was hoping they fixed it but tbh the games story and gameplay is worth the framerate drop to get the uncensored version
