Every once in a while Neptunia will draw me in with a new premise, something that promises to break up the monotony of the main line games. Like Superdimension Neptunia vs. SEGA Hard Girls, Dimension Tripper Neptune does this by drawing on the appeal of SEGA properties, this time with taking after SEGA’s Space Harrier. Sadly, the resemblance is only superficial, and the comparison once again doesn’t work in Neptune’s favor.

• Superdimension Neptune VS Sega Hard Girls
• Developer - IDEA FACTORY, COMPILE HEAR, FELISTELLA
• Publisher - Idea Factory International
• PC/Steam
Superdimension Neptune VS Sega Hard Girls is, of course, the next series in featuring the plucky cast of the games that centered around them before. If you’ve played a Neptunia game, you more than likely know what to expect - a good or bad thing, depending on who you ask. Most of the cast is back for this entry with new additions to their crew: the aforementioned Sega Hard Girls, which are developed via collaborative efforts between Sega and ASCII Media Works’ Dengeki Bunko imprint. A little esoteric if you don’t know where they’ve come from - I sure didn’t - but it makes sense for Sega’s officially sanctioned characters to eventually meet up with Idea Factory’s creations sooner or later. Doubly so considering the fact that Sega is the distributor of the entirety of the Neptunia franchise. Idea Factory always goes above and beyond with their translations and selection for English voice actors, though theirold habits and mechanics crop up like red flags in this installment. This review is for the Steam version that released this month, this a one for one port of the Vita version.

We (or I for the most part) here at clickbliss are usually at the forefront of Neptunia reviews. Like Compile Heart and their videogames, we pump out our Neptunia reviews in a timely fashion. MegaTagmension Blanc + Neptunie VS Zombies (we’ll call it NepZom for short) was a game released back in the States May of 2016. Why did I take so long to publish this review? Was the game just that good that I was so immersed in the world of NepZom that I couldn’t put my opinions into words?

Read our original review on Neptunia U here
Having thoroughly toured the world of the JRPG, Neptune and company now venture out into the world of the arena brawler. Once again their fight takes place in Gamindustri, a world full of puns and jokes poking fun at the real world of Japanese game development. Instead of taking part in the main series Console Wars, however, this time the team is battling to show off for Dengekiko and Famitsu, two reporters based on the Japanese game magazines. The plot is a side story to the main series, removed from any stakes or events that occur there, and essentially exists to set up a reason for you to make each character brawl against hundreds of enemies.

Nep Nep is no longer held back by the power of the cell. This time we get to see Neptune and co. shine in 8 GBs of GDDR5. Compile Heart’s Neptunia series has finally landed on the 8th generation of consoles, but will it offer anything new and exciting other than a fresh coat of paint?
