Eh? The characters are charming and the dialogue is entertaining but the gameplay is extremely boring and grindy from my experience.

How has California not responded to this thread yet? lol
I have all the US localized games for the PS3 and I'm planning on getting that one game on the PS4. I also have Neptunia PP (which I platinumed lol) and the Noire game on PS Vita...

And I'm just here with Re;Birth1 and Re;Birth2 in my Steam library, and I haven't even bothered to play through them yet.kirueggy wrote:

Thanks for reviving the thread, by the way. I appreciate it.
I also bought the Re;Birth games but haven't really touched the first one... I guess it's because I didn't like the battle system, but we'll see... eventually.

Speaking of trophies, Neptunia Victory is by far hands down the hardest to plat... f**k the scouting system specifically. Ugh
I would put the original Hyperdimension Neptunia as harder just because you can't die and you have to deal with the super clunky engine. That and I found getting the Lost Places in Victory fairly easily because I aimed for 40 pts in every chapter..... On a side note, the most boring Plat to get would be Noire's. Spending 20-30hrs to grind lily rank and lvl is draining......kirueggy wrote:

It is almost complete, all 10 games, 9 CEs, 4 perfect guides, 1 PS4 faceplate, and most importantly a dogoo.
Now time to hype the next 2 games coming out in 3 months time.

I don't even know how I managed to plat HDNoire with all the Lily Grinding (maxing them all out for each of the 22 characters)... I got stuck with HDN U's Lily Grind trophy and gave up on it so I can start playing Re;Birth 3 LOL
Well with U, you don't have to pay as much attention to the screen to do lily rank grinding. Just repeatedly run the 4th to 10th floor tower by just mashing the attck key while watching anime or platting something more mindless (like *w* quintet)
Hopefully no one find a double post 6 days after.....
Finally, got my plat on Rb 3 (I know I did this very slowly)
Trying to decide which one to do next PP or VII while I wait for Blanc........

Damn you people who have more free time than others. I've only platinumed HDN Victory (after like a month of 2014's summer) and HDN PP (easy money) but since I have three AP classes I'm stuck dying hereblissfulyoshi wrote:

(But I took 5 AP Classes before and still had some time for games...... (I admit that there were times where I cried myself to sleep because of the stress))
Rb 3 on my ingame clock took 47 hrs + whatever time I needed for stella. If I bought the $1 dlc, I probably could have easily shaved off quite at least 2-3 hrs off that time. In short, it doesn't take that long.... Actually, if you don't count Stella's dungeon, all the Rb games aren't that bad because of how much easier it is to get lily ranks. (Rb1 only took me 32 hrs on my Vita. I ran it again on steam while skipping all dialogue, and got the plat equivalent in 17hrs)

Is it worth it to buy PP? I might get it someday just to have all the Vita Nep games.
Depends on what price you buy PP at and what you are looking for.
You get a subpar idol raising game with about 2-3hrs worth of the typical Neptunia dialogue (with the blank inserted character that the fanbase seems to hate). On the gameplay side, you have 4 routes, and for your first run, it'll usually take you 2-4hrs. If you want a platinum trophy, and have a guide, it only takes 10-15hrs, in which you'll see all the dialogue the game has to offer.
If you want the dialogue, getting it for 10-15 is not bad. If you want a decent gameplay length/price, hope somehow you can get it for 5. If you want fun gameplay, don't get the game. If you want to complete your collection, does the price tag really matter all that much xD?

It's cheaper than most of the games I see on the nearest store but is still a bit expensive (about 20usd). Reading the dialogue is fine with me as long as it's not too boring. I guess I'll buy it after finishing Re;Birth3 and maybe after getting that Lily trophy on Nep U D;
Sorry for the double post.
GOOD NEWS! The localization of Neptunia VII is finally announced to be released early 2016.

Is it just me or is Neptunia mk2 is suddenly getting harder to platinum in terms of time spent? blissfulyoshi pls help
And I finally got all my characters in Victory to level 999 (DLC included, CC2 and both Falcoms took forever) so that's a plus lmao

Would I be considered a bit too obsessed with the Hyperdimension Neptunia games if I told you that I have played and beaten every single one that has been released in the USA?
Which is like, all of them except Victory II?
xD

While I didn't plat mk2 yet (I ironically originally played it on a modded console, so I'm going back to do plats these days), the plat is pretty much the same as rb2 except without Stella's dungeon of doom. You do a first run to get Apocalypse end. Then you do a 2nd run where you save before the point of no return and do all the other endings. Afterward, with your true end save, you go to lvl 99 and beat Delphinus. Where are you having problems with this?
@Chocoboeater1 , you're obsessed, but as long as you enjoy it, then who cares xD.
And yay, preordered Blanc! I wonder how much of a grind this one will be xD
I'm stuck Battling Blanc...

Just got my copy of Blanc, seems to be a far better game than U so far. There is a lot more dialogue, and the fights are shorter for now. Also, bosses actually require a bit of strategy..... (like actually moving......)
Oh yeah, after way too long, got my Victory plat.
And here is my updated Neptunia display:

Re;Birth3 V Generation is now available on Steam.
Just bought it earlier today. Haven't had a chance to play it yet but now I don't have to feel bad about playing VII before V anymore 
Also don't forget it's 40% off for the first few days. So if you are planning on getting the game, you may want to think about getting it now!

Would play it (or any of the other Hyperdimension Neptunia games), but a certain other game from the same creators/company/whatever caught my attention (mainly due to the main character's seiyuu).
Go ahead and shun me, but my mind's set /o/

Neptunia U and Noire announced for Steam today , coming Spring 2016.
Also announced is that Blanc is coming to the US in Spring 2016.
(Admittedly the most important part of the announcement was that Monster Monpiece is coming to Steam. Going to be so weird watching crush rubs with the mouse.)

I held off getting Noire for my vita due to time and budget constraints, but I will definitely get it on steam when it comes out.blissfulyoshi wrote:

How is the game compared to others?
Well the game is made by Sting and is a turn based strategy game, so you can't really compare it to a Neptunia game. The closest I guess you can compare it to is Gungnir, but that is a stretch. Noire is a TBS that does a few creative things, but most of them remain poorly developed, making them nothing more than gimmicks. Sadly same goes for a lot of the characters because the cast is so large and poorly developed. Luckily, like every Neptunia game, dialogue is the strong suit of the game, and while there isn't much of it, it should provide a few laughs.California wrote:

Overall, Noire is a mediocre game, but considering it as a Neptunia game, it isn't bad and surely worth a try, just don't expect too much.
On another note, got my plat on VII (in both eng and jp), so not sure what to look forward to next.

ayy lmao
The discounts weren't even that good. Well, not like I have anything to buy any Neptunia since I already have VII and I have access to mk2 and Victory.
By the way, http://ideafintl.com/beta.php
By the way, http://ideafintl.com/beta.php
I just didn't have a lot of games that I wanted to try during the sale, so I was tempted in :/
bought re;birth 1 when it was 80%, still haven't finished it yet
The big question for me is how many times do I want to buy VII. I already own 3 copies. Whatever, probably will buy the game as a card farm when it comes out.
Only 3 more days boyz.
The hype is getting strong in me.

nep vii on steam fml this is prolly the biggest price cut for a newly-released game i've seen and i don't have the mun for it...

Game looks good so far, though unfortunately it seems to absolutely hate AMD graphic cards, as Nepgear's and Uzume's models are pretty messed up there for me (and many AMD users are reporting the shadows going crazy if either of those two are in battle). My rig is able to run it, even if it's only around 30fps, but that's enough for me considering the alternative is not being able to play it all (no big fan of the PS4 at all). Looks like a refund at the moment if there's no fix for the card issue, and I kind of doubt it since apparently, previous IF games sometimes had trouble with AMD cards as well, but I'd probably recommend it if you can run it. What little bit I've heard of the OST so far has been great.
First we got Nep VII and now this:
