    This game has pretty good graphics. It definitely appeals to the JRPG enthusiasts. Also it has a lot of nostalgia factors by featuring your favourite game companies and consoles as characters.

    Overall get this game if you are a huge JRPG fan and love cute girls.    … Expand

    I shouldn’t like these games the fanservice and the constant reuse of maps and assets annoy me immensely, but they are kinda charming. If you are looking for a amazing jrpg there are other games

    Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1’s degree of fan service means it probably won’t resonate with anyone unwilling to step outside their comfort zone, but beyond that entry barrier lies a laboriously crafted JRPG with tangible meaning behind its story and worthwhile commentary on the video game industry.
