    There was hope that the Neptunia series would finally fulfill its potential on PlayStation 4, but sadly that hasn't happened. Good ideas are still tarnished by poor execution and disgusting attempts at fan service.

If you played a Neptunia game then you know what you want and what to expect! It seems US critics are very sensitive to Japanese culture and what is acceptable for them. There's no need to rate down a game because it offends you or doesn't match your culture. This game is fantastic and a great installment that will propel the series to new heights. The soundtrack is out of this world and amazing, gameplay is the best its ever been with a deeper combat system. Best portrayal of the characters and writing since the first game. Recommended to anyone who loves JRPGS. Full Review »

The best thing is that the series is just going to get better and better. The higher production values in this installment shine brightly. Amazing soundtrack, very pretty graphics (even at 1080p 60fps!), and amazing fun characters! I can definitely recommend this to Neptunia fans or anyone who wants a silly and mindless JRPG. You can't go wrong with this one! Full Review »

    Combat does have some tweaks, but if you've been through Re;birth 1, 2, and 3 in that order then you will know exactly what to expect in terms of how much has changed.

    It's enough to keep you playing if you're a fan, but some call the series a "rehashing, repetitive combat" RPG. I don't agree with the latter statement, because this newest Megadimension entry for the PS4 feels fresh, I just wish it had more content and the textures were a bit sharper. Also, I'm still not sure if the game does run at 60 FPS consistently or not, but I'll update back later along with other impressions of the game.
