Neptunia Game Maker R:Evolution

Neptune fans are eating good on this one.; I stepped away from the franchise because of the VTuber nonsense of belittling fans of fanservice and this game has shown that Iffy and Compa like money more than telling people how they should think and live.; Seriously, this game is polished, pretty, comes with free bikinis and tiddies. The gameplay is fun, I'm 12 hours in and not finished chapter 2, there's at least 9 chapters. You like Neptune? You like RPGs? You like some A in your RPG? This game is so much fun I wrote this long ass review.

Neptunia Game Maker R:Evolution é uma evolução natural de seu antecessor espiritual (Sisters vs Sisters). Embora sejam personagens, contextos e dimensões diferentes, a base da gameplay é a mesma. O jogo tem foco na Neptune Adulta que conhecemos em Megadimension Neptunia VII, que está explorando o multiverso até que para num Mundo em que jogos são absolutos e as personagens ganham poder através deles. Neptune acaba se tornando presidente de um estúdio de jogos composto por três deusas esquecidas, e juntas precisam enfrentar os desafios necessários para criar um jogo que o mundo todo possa adorar. A trama é bem menos séria e complexa do que a que vimos em Sisters vs Sisters, mas as personagens são tão divertidas que não faz tanta diferença no fim, pois você vai se entreter. A gameplay teve uma melhoria absurda. As transformações HDD estão mais acessíveis pois compartilham uma barra diferente da do EXE Drive, além de que usar esses ataques especiais é bem mais fácil do que no jogo anterior. Agora temos uma motocicleta que Neptune usa pra atravessar dungeons em alta velocidade, o que é excelente para eliminar aquelas caminhadas exaustivas em dungeons parecidas com as anteriores... Falando em dungeons, muitas são reusadas de Sisters vs Sisters, porém ainda tem mapas novos imensos como o Deserto, que só funciona bem graças à moto de Neptune que agiliza o movimento. Além disso, dungeons principais possuem corridas que o jogador pode apostar contra NPCs, ou simplesmente Time Attacks em que você precisa atravessar a dungeon antes que o tempo acabe. Você tem opções de customização, então pode acabar gastando um tempinho nessa parte entre um grind aqui e ali... Os gráficos mantêm o padrão já visto anteriormente, mas com uma perfomance ainda melhor (Mais otimizado!) que antes. Não tive problemas de framerate, stuttering, crash nem nada do tipo. É um jogo bem programado. No geral, recomendo muito para quem é fã da franquia. Caso seja seu primeiro jogo, talvez seja melhor começar pelos jogos principais por esse ser mais um spin-off com história à parte e não apresentar muito bem os personagens por isso.

Новая непка (очередной спинов) вышел довольно неплох. Конечно не шедевр и плохим назвать не могу. Большая Нептун как главная героиня, три новенькие богини со своими причудами (особенно Ридио это мой личный фаворит здесь), новые антагонистки (две которые на мой взгляд похожи на Котори и Йошино из DAL) тоже забавные и за их тупостью было забавно наблюдать. Появился мотоцикл благодаря которому можно быстро перемещаться по локации. Конечно не всё так радужно и начну я с локаций. Когда ты видишь локации из Dragon Star Varnir это вводит тебя в ступор. Также как и медленная боевка (Как же я скучаю по тем временам когда её можно было скипать). Разбаловала меня четвертая номерная игра в серии и приходилось использовать HDD форму только на боссах как в первой части. Музыка здесь тоже не примечательно. Также как и финальный босс которые я прошел за несколько минут. Видимо это связано с тем что я башню до 100 уровня дошел и мне дали очень много опыта. Короче среднячок которые лучше брать по скидки. Ну что же ждем теперь следующую (теперь уже точно номерную) игру.

On the balance of recommending or not, this game barely falls on the not recommended side. So first, the pros: It's another Neptunia game, if you like those, then you will like this one. The art is better than ever. The model and the map are beautifully rendered. And there are variety of characters with adjustable playstyle and modification that will tide the player over. The disc creation system now being linked to a company is an innovative approach. There is a lot of love in this game. So then the cons: It's another Neptunia game. Doesn't advance the plot forward in anyways, another multiverse to go to where everything is inconsequential in the end. The combat is action, like sister vs sister, but they have once again failed to nail the feedback, making the fighting feel floaty and weightless, not fun to play. And it's very grind heavy. So, in conclusion, it's a Neptunia game that did not add enough to the formulae. Fans would find satisfaction, but if you are tired to the Neptunia games, this will add onto the fatigue and offered no new or interesting gameplay addition.

The last "big" spin-off before upcoming main title. It got some improvements since Sisters Vs Sisters so let's kangaroo jump into it. + New cast members are alright. + Story is nothing groundbreaking but still interesting. While it's usual Neptune goofs, it got some...deepness to it. A lil bit. + Music is BANGING, I hope IF/CH will invite this composer again. + Combat got improved, at least it feels less clunky here. Still not perfect, but improvement is still an improvement. + A whole ONE real puzzle(not the usual time waster type, it's an easy one tho) and a MAZE dungeon. It's not a big plus, but gotta give credit where it's due. +- Dungeons are reused. Again. There are some new ones tho. +- I'm not sure, but I feel like dungeons got a little less tangled. +- Because we got new 3 Goddesses, story focuses on them this time. The others are mostly just there or being plot devices. It's understandable but still. +- Racing modes are fine. I wish time attack was less clunky though. Hard to race against time when you stuck on every corner of invisible walls. +- No different endings this time. They added "routes" and "choices" but only things that will change are a few scenes and that's it. +- We got a BIKE to traverse in dungeons. Cool, less time wasted on useless running. But not every dungeon is "bike compatible". - Everyone addressed difficulty spike when you have to fight The Gold Third... Yeah that's nasty. But tbh K-Sha is the biggest problem in that. Had to craft a bunch of disks and buy a bunch of healing items. - There are a few sound problems. The one that stood out to me the most was the desert location one. The wind was just BURSTING into my ears. - Why did they change the way Neptral Tower works? In this one, you ALWAYS start at the level 1 with save points between each 10 floors. You can't teleport back to 30th level if you left, for example. Honestly, my theory that with spin-offs they just experimented with mechanics and tried to polish them doesn't sound too far from the truth seeing Unlimited trailer. I saw people calling this game "SvS DLC" and that's kinda true, but it's a good DLC. Better combat but story is less captivating, still fun though. I didn't grind that much personally, but I think for the Gold Third gauntlet you need to spend some time on that. This game will help those who need to pass the time till Unlimited comes to PC. Or those who just want more Nep content. Grab it on sale if you are not sure. Starting with this game to get familiar with Neptunia series is NOT recommended.

So im only one hour in, but i can already say gameplay or combat wise this game is the best ( for me ) neptunia game their is. Again, the story is kind of mid, when compared to the S tier rebirth titles. However, this game is basically a replica of Sisters Vs Sisters, with a different story and updated combat system. Basically everything wrong with SvS combat system is "fixed" to a degree in this game. Things SvS does such as common hit detection problems, your fellow characters hardly attacking, often times...just literally standing there running back and forth taking damage and doing nothing, are all mostly fixed in this game. I can semi-afk in combat and my squadron will finish the enemies fairly quickly depending on monster and zone etc. So if you want the non turn based semi open combat system, and no more AP either, so you can just keep doing combos essentially without waiting for stamina to regen like in SvS, then this is the game youd wanna buy asap. As always, tons of cool customization options and everything that makes neptunia games stick out. You can ride motorcycles, build your own little base, albeit fairly lmited, but theirs so many new features not in the other games aside from the great combat system that make this game stand out the most.
