    I was very disappointed in this game, Which is sad cause i loved rebirth 1. Its flaws stem from its recycling of rebirth 1's content (i felt like i bought a half assed version of rebirth 1) and the short, bland story.

    Negatives: The ENTIRE soundtrack was a MESS! Nearly EVERY song was some form of a sloppy remix of a BGM or theme song from rebirth 1 (the exception being rom and rams    I was very disappointed in this game, Which is sad cause i loved rebirth 1.

    Negatives: The ENTIRE soundtrack was a MESS! Nearly EVERY song was some form of a sloppy remix of a BGM or theme song from rebirth 1 (the exception being rom and rams theme which was made of catchy awesomeness). Almost all the enemy fodder was also recycled. The main cast (the CPU candidates) are all very whiny preteen girls without an ounce of confidence between them (excluding ram, who actually had confidence). The story was RIDICULOUSLY short for the $50 I payed for it (the world was also incredibly small and dungeons, very few). The main bad guys (the 4 felons and the "deity of sin") had no fleshing out to their characters. they existed solely to easily be beat by the main cast. one of them was even a pedo monster... it was.... weird... The stellas dungeon was also a broken mess what with the randomness of the enemys that appear and can kill you no matter what your gear. last but not least, anyone who payed attention to the whole story in rebirth 2 would realize they actually screwed up the back story from rebirth 1.

    Positives: The art is well done (cute where it needs to be and cool where it counts). As mentioned Rom and Rams theme is AWESOME. Compa got slightly smarter (heh). Neptune is still funny (but she appears too late to save the over all lack of confidence.)

    Overall NOT a recommended game (unless your bored and can find it cheap used)    … Expand

    First off. to jaymz1970 You're wrong. PP was one of the best Nep games.

    Next, this is just CTRL C+CTRL V of both mechanics and story from Mk2. Only, more boring. Then there's the WORST ending in Neptunia. The holy sword ending. Kill it with fire! Even with all that though, it takes nearly the 2nd best story of the OG trilogy, so it will always have an advantage over Re;Birth 1 and 3.    First off. to jaymz1970 You're wrong.

    I hate it. They didnt play the first game. They didnt know what the first game had. They just recycled the enemies, the dungeons, the colossuem, the characters, but the most important, the story, they drop it. They created a new story where i dont understand how each character meet other OR didnt meet other, we had a good story we dont need a new one that is so bad.

    Histoire is no more    I hate it. They didnt play the first game. They didnt know what the first game had.

    Histoire is no more a god is just a secretary, when the other secretaries looks like normal humans. They created so many new humans that are so weak compared with the CPUs, except Cave. Iffy loved Vert, now Iffy dont care Vert but her secretary is replacing her love, why this change. I can think that just like Blanc recieve two sisters but Vert didnt have one. Vert couldnt participate in the main story of the game. So they **** up an existent good character to create Chika.

    First game i love the farm. But here was horrible. I entered the same dungeon 20 times looking a hide item just to take a 20% of recieving the plan Add Dungeon. First game had it but was more too easy to find it. Or farming the bosses 30 times because 1% of dropping. Just no.

    Stella dungeon was strange in the start, then easy, until some dungeons were impossible, but finally i could take the hand. It has some problems.

    More that one villain is cool. But a pedophile is bad idea. The boyfriend of Noire i like it. The villain from the first game is now the final boss again without lore, The villains from Leanbox and Planeptune dont have lore. They appear and just fight. And the mouse girl and her pet, though they were going to be something in at least ONE ending, but no.

    Characters, new ones are useless, except Cave. Cave was so cool to play. And then i played 5PB and is so weak, she is a tier F. The rest of them are recycled with the same stats and skils.

    Finals, why we have a bad ending. We dont want this. It is bad. They make us kill a lot of characters we love and didnt even need to die. And you need to NOT take some events because you take one single mistake and drop your final. At least let me kill 5PB. And too many finals, i didnt spend 50 hours in a single boss but.. too much thing i spend 100 hours total anyways.    … Expand

    Even though it is not a revolutionary game for the genre, Hyperdimension Neptunia Re; Birth 2 Sisters Generation is a really good port from an excellent sequel of a PS3 game. If you are a fan of JRPS’s, love anime, visual novels and can tolerate all the “Moe” it has, this is a title you should try at least once.

    Ultimately, Re;Birth2 is not a top-tier JRPG in terms of polish, or even story, but it is a solid effort that looks very pretty on the Vita.

    By the end it feels as though Re;Birth2 has taken two steps forward and then two steps back.
