| Just wanted to mention this game is coming out this month. For those of you who do not know, Nis america is a relativity small Japanese company that distributes games over to the US. How ever some of these games end up going up in price or even canceled all together. The first Hyper dimension Neptunia, just after 1 or 2 weeks skyrocketed in price from like 50 dollars to about 80-90. That is why alot of people missed out on that game. This game is mostly for the hardcore anime jrpg fan in you. If you like sexual references, witty humor and ol dungeon crawling fun that explores more of the japanese cultuers, then this game is for you. if you ever played any games like Mana Khemia, At Tonelico or Atelier iris series and you liked those, then you will probably like this game. In any case, pre order well you still can other wise it will skyrocket in price, i garuntee you. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006MBZZSI/ref=oh_o04_s02_i00_details Here is a questions and answers faq for more information detailing the game. http://www.siliconera.com/2011/12/28/nis-america-answers-your-hyperdimension-neptunia-mk2-questions/ |

Wasabi said: Played the first one for a bit. It was kind of shitty. It's a game more aimed at Anime fans, western gamers will definitely dislike/hate it. I believe there we're multiple reviews stating it was too much loli fanservice or something along those lines. 1st game had some annoying glitches and such but overall I didn't mind it. Game did get incredibly tedious though. Thank god they had a "skip" button. I order all all my NIS games off their main site, last time i did, they sent it to me 2 days before the release date (Disgaea 4). I'll probably get it, also waiting for Atelier Meruru as well. |
| I'm a fan of JRPGs in general, and hyperdimension neptunia was definitely something I didn't care much for. You see, there is no witty humor. Just milking the "Break the fourth wall" lines throughout the entire game. Along with sexually explicit underlying themes in its comedy, it wasn't too interesting. The plot is also nothing even worth considering as 'decent'. I also found the combat system was annoying with a relatively steep learning curve. Not something I cared much for since it was hardly rewarding. Just lots of grinding inbetween actual story events. |
| Disgaea IV is a different quality altogether: ridiculous numbers. And I consider that fun. I think Hyperdimension's selling point is as good as a VN: girls, except that generally a VN's story would thrash Hyperdimension's story completely. Mk2 is better than the 1st game though. There's some story, as compared to in the first one where it was quite a shaky representation of companies vs. piracy. |

| So, what are the 3 DLCs that aren't in the release? |
  |
| I pre-ordered this, but I don't have very high hopes. The first game was a huge piece of shit (which is sadly, true about the majority of NIS Americas game releases) but the combat system in the new one seems slightly more bearable so I said fuck it. Plus I get weeaboo cards. |

The only way to prove you are a true man. |

| pre-ordered this, i didnt hate or loved the first one, but still gonna give this a try = complete it one time |
 |
| I am a fan of nis america as well and i do agree that hyper dimension neptunia definitely isn't one of their greatest games. Either way if your a collector through and want to play every game they have out their, then its better to purchase it well its in your price range, rather then waiting their is still some fun to be had with the game, its not like its absolutely unplayable. I for one had alot more fun with the new Atelier games on the playstation 3. They also have "record of Agarest War 2" coming out as well in June. |

| I'll be picking up the Limited Edition of this myself. NISA is an American publisher, not to be confused with the Japanese developer NIS (though NISA handles NIS releases stateside). As far as Hyperdimension goes, it's primarily developed between Idea Factory and Compile Heart, which is why you see the 'event, story battle, grind' loop that's common with IF (like Cross Edge, Agarest War). Hyperdimension 1 isn't without its merits though. The dialogue is pretty interesting if you like the retrogaming and general weaboo references thrown in everywhere. I'll add that the English voiceovers are particularly impressive -- Melissa Fahn does an outstanding job as Neptune and I actually preferred the English voices over the original Japanese. Though Hyper MK2 is a significant level-up from the first one. Just check some footage on Youtube and you'll probably agree. It looks a lot more polished. |
| I thought the first game was below avarege and I consider myself a huge Jrpg fan. I liked the anime designs and the visual novel feel it had but everything else was pretty bad. The level design was horribly repetitive, many dungeons were completly identical. The combat was fun at the beginning of the game but when you reach the last part of the game the only thing you had to do was change nep into cpu mode and spam NeptuneBreaker. I also disliked the fact that the rest of the goddesses joined party just BEFORE the final dungeon. The story was really bad but well the game never took itself seriously when it comes to the plot so I think I can overlook that and I have to admit I liked the weaboo and retrogaming references. Anyway I will most likely get this a few weeks after its realesed, it seems like Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk2 is a pretty big improvment over the first game. |

| First game was pretty gay, so I'll wait for a price drop with this version. Don't wanna make the same mistake twice. |

| Countdown till weeaboo cards |

| The game was mediocre at best. There wasn't really anything in the gameplay that really stood out. But I'm willing to give Hyperdimension Mk2 a chance. Nowhere to go but up I suppose. |

I am tired of amazon actually delaying orders. you know what i found out once, that an item was delayed for another month. I just thought that maybe amazon had the release dates screwed up like they always do but turns out the damn game came out during that initial release date and i didn't end up getting mine till a month later. For that exact reason i will never trust amazon when they delay orders, i always check other places like gamestop just to make sure the release date is correct. |

| An M rating, if this can fly with an M rating, they need to start bringing more loli games here, start with Mugen Souls. |

| Hmm, looks like it's been delayed again...? /sad. |
| Newsletter said its now shipping to retailers, but I haven't gotten a tracking number or anything useful = \. |
| |
| After playing couple hours into it, this game is a lot more fun than the first one. It's a step up at everything. |
 |
| I finally got the game (so late D:) I'm amazed at how much better it is that the first one. Some funky stuff here and there but overall, the game is so much better, at least the combat system is. The story seems to be pretty much the same. /looks for some HDD skins. |
| Wish I had a PS3... |
|
| My copy is maybe lost at the delivery, so its possible that i wont get my copy anytime soon. |

| Really like how I don't have to purchase every certain character from PS Store now. I'm loving 5pb. One of her buff skill shows Kurisu from Steins;Gate, they even named the skill after her though the buff is pretty useless most of the time (Increase INT in a large area) and also when she defeats an enemy, she sometimes goes 'Tuturuuu~" (Another Steins;Gate reference). Some things I've noticed (after about 7~ 8 hours of gameplay) that I have to say/note: -The game is still pretty easy, heck, possibly even easier that the first. I've managed to do the main story mode (from Ch1 to 4) without bothering to train because simply killing every monster you see while doing the main quests will be enough. Just made sure my equips were up to with what is available. -Monsters have horrible AI. It seems if you ever fight a large group of monsters, they just always seem to end up gathering up to each other, making them easy to mob, even with a normal attack AoE. -No more guns... or at least no far ranged normal attacks. Uni uses a rifle yet you find she can only do point-blank shot normal attacks. Compa can't shoot her syringe for long range support... There are far ranged skills but that's a bit different. (The battle system is completely different other than using AP to perform actions). -Some skills are so op'd... I hit max with a skill I got with Gear (9999x1 per monster in range) as soon as I got it around level 20 IIRC. -Monster designs seemed to have gotten even less creative even compared to the first. Some were lulz, but many others were just lame. |
Gogetters said: Wish I had a PS3... Me too. I really want to play this. It looks like so much fun. |
| I so recommend to play true route ending |

| The Conquest ending is standing hard in contrast to all other endings. I will never play this route again, because it was hard to handle it ... |
