"Overall, it's just a nice thing to look at." then zooms in a low angle on Nepgear's backside in the catsuit...I approve! and BONZAI!!!!
I definitely want you to rank the Senran Kagura series next. Very interested in your opinion. I'll definitely be giving Super Neptunia a try now.
12:23 "overall it's just a nice thing to look at"
Also YSN: *Zooms into Nepgears ass*
THEY REMOVED THE COMPA'S GRANDPA JOKES?!
Can't wait to see Senran Kagura tier list.
13:17 YES, FINALLY! some recognition for neptunia RPG, the story, art style and music are awesome in that game. It is kinda hard before you know how the game works but as long as you understand type advantages in that game and how equipments can give you permanent skills once you master them the gameplay too is a solid 8/10
I also appreciate that 4go was given love!
For what I remember super Neptunia rpg is really bad, probably the worst neptunia game on steam
Leriomat ohoho friend you are missing out on a awesome game, trust me, I used to hate it’s gameplay, all the way until I found out how to play the game properly.
The most important part is type advantages, you will have to adjust your characters attacks to counter the enemies within each zone, kinda like how you build decks to defeat bosses in hearthstone.
Once you do, the battles can go quite smoothly since you actually gain AP every time you gain elemental advantages against your enemies, you can attack nonstop like a hack n slash game!
And you can gain super useful skills by equipping the right equipments, try on *EVERY* kind of equipments that has the skills that you do not currently have
Doesn’t matter if it has low attacks, once you master the skills on the weapon those skills stay with you *PERMANENTLY* so you could later switch to a different, better stat equipments in the late game.
I didn’t like the game at first dude, in fact I found it quite boring in terms of gameplay the first hour or so, because I was impatient and don’t wanna learn how the game works,.
Play the game patiently and try to learn it’s never before seen-mechanics well, and you’ll have a whale of a time playing the game, it’s animation/music are quite awesome as well. Try it out whenever you can, as long as you know the mechanics you will not regret buying the game
Meh, if you find spamming the same the same attack over and over is fun, good for you. Also the game is full of boring fetch quests. One of the few game on steam that I regret I didn't refund.
@@Leriomat Ah well can't make everyone happy, honestly I'm just happy that someone acknowledged Neptunia RPG
I really enjoyed this. It's rare that I get to hear a fellow Neptunia fans opinion on the games. Defiantly gonna subscribe.
8:02 Lmao he really took the piss out of those SSD complaints
>Puts original trilogy in A tier "because he likes them"
>Immediately slams the first game for how terrible it is besides the story
?????
Anyway, the rest of it is pretty fair. Not a bad list.
to be fair, the first game is unfathomably bad gameplaywise, while being quite charming from a story standpoint. Its a conundrum.
Ya, the battle systems was pretty terrible. After playing v2 and the updated battle system they been going it, it makes you realize how bad it truly was. Other than that, I lived it and it left a huge impression on me. Never had the opportunity to play the other two main titles...until now at least. Just bought rebirth 1-3 and going through 1 right now.
@@bryanmoberg8408 - Lucky us who have the privelege of watching and going through the story on TH-cam, without experiencing the gameplay \o/
So, NieR is one of my top games ever, but the gameplay hurts it a lot. It's still on my top for the story. Luckily, we're getting a remake with better gameplay! NieR Replicant here we go!
@Ezra Nobleheart That's an opinion I don't see often.
Really interesting tier list. I guess I agree with quite a few of the rankings on there. I myself haven't played the PS3 games, but it seems that the people who have played mk2 and Victory generally like the original games more than the remakes.
I would have ranked 4GO maybe a rank lower because of all the technical issues I had with the game. Super Nep RPG is either an A or S and Sega Hard girls I liked so that would be B I guess. Also since I've only played the Re;Birth games I guess they are all an A for me while not ranking the originals. So yeah, not all that different.
Really nice video. You went really in-depth with every game and talked about pros and cons which was particularly interesting. I liked the video a lot.
If you played originals the story is not new and if you play rebirth first then the gameplay systems is a big step down and story mostly same + some element the player may or may not like.
Can't say the original get many plus points from me in the early game including story.
Yeah. I like them more than the remakes except for the first due to only terrible gameplay.
I would like the originals more, if it wasn't for the the fact those games are optimized like shit, especially Victory.
I kinda like the protagonist in Hyperdevotion gives us a better idea of how they might act around a normal guy as most of us are
Also here's hoping for a Super nep sequel that has the candidates
Just picked up V II for my first Neptunia game! Thanks for all the content for the series you have been putting out!
Little late but, I think you should have picked up Re;birth 1, 2, and 3, you will have missed out on story.
Ah you too ship Neptune and Noire. I knew I liked you. You are of culture.
Doesn't everybody ship those two? I mean, every time they're on screen together I want to shout "Just get a room, already!" at my computer. And I'm not really a shipper.
@@skyknight0408 Nah I kinda despise that ship
@@darthdistortion1934 Why? It's crystal clear that they like each other. Noire is just a total Tsun about it and Nep loves to tease her because she's Nep and trolling is what she does best. Usually I don't ship anything, but it feels like this ship was put there intentionally by the developers.
Personally ReBirth;1 is my all time favorite. Something about it being not only the first game, but the lesser amount of fan service and more story elements to it make it outstanding. The gameplay is very fun, it’s story driven, and the fighting mechanisms are way easier than the originals.
Except it’s not really the first game.
@@arrownoiru don’t say😧
Im going to throw some other Compile Heart games outside of the neptunia series just because they are really good.
S:
VII, Mk2, Death End Re;quest, Fairy Fencer F remake,
A:
RPG, Neptunia 1, Mary Skelter 1 and 2
B:
Sega Hard Girls, Victory, 4GO
C:
Neptunia U, Megatagmension, Hyperdevotion Noire
D: Producing Perfection
I've been enjoying Fairy Fencer F a lot. Hope CH makes another one similar to this.
Death End Re;Quest has made its way into my top 5 games of all time list. It was fantastic imo.
Compa's grandpa, Gust, the way IF (at least to me) comes off as the main character, the Clunky yet crazy powerful custom combos, the clever references and the writing in general. There was a lot I hated about the first game but these few things kept me hooked and how I became a fan.
I wished Blanc vs zombies kept the clothes break mechanic.
Nep PP I liked exclusively for the dialogue and for Nep's song
Good tier list man
I bought the game Because you keep give us videos about this games i palyed like 3 hours and iam in love with this series
Not a bad list, I agree with about half of it. I would say the rebirth games really helped the series, giving it a great touch up and I never really thought the dialogue stopped being witty and funny, but I did miss the compa grandpa jokes.
I will say that I loved rebirth 3, I tend to see most of the fandom be 50\50 on it, either is one of your favorites or one of your least favorites.
Yeah I'm part of the crowd that was introduced to the series via the Re;Birth games and would definitely rank them higher than you did. I plan to play the originals at some point but for now the extent of my knowledge of them comes from this channel, it does seem some good things were lost. Especially Compa's grandpa lol.
I could not figure out how to PLAY the idol game.
Having taken a break with Nep Nep games for oh 7 years, this is a great quick guide!
I really want super neptunia to become a series of its own
Victory will always be my S+ tier game
Was on the fence about Super Neptunia RPG until I watched this vid. Another game to add to my list...
Do you think Neptune has a chance to get in Smash Ultimate?
Some of these games I haven't played because I have not enough room on my PSVita...
I’d hope so
i completely agree with S tier. mega and rpg are easily my favorite nep games.
I bought 2 of the Neptunia humble bundles, I dunno how this helped me, but I am more confident now in playing them this decade? My backlog is starting to collapse under its gravity...
I'm glad that they added overworld encounterable enemies in Re;Birth1. With the way that the original handles encounters in dungeons, it looks very annoying to deal with. Megadimension Neptunia VII is the game that introduced me to the Neptunia series. And to say that I liked it would be a HEAVY understatement... I LOVED the game! So much in fact that I sunk in 89.8 hours in under 2 weeks while getting all 3 endings the game has to offer. I used to hate character interactions in gaming, but Megadimension Neptunia VII made me love character interactions due to the amount of 4th wall breaks, game references, etc. I got the Bad Ending first by complete accident and I still think that it's complete bull to have to go outta your way to get any ending, and then I went for the Good and True endings in New Game Plus.
One thing I adore about Blanc Vs Zombies is the enemy designs. Man I wish there were more cartoony enemies in the Nep series as I think it fits well to the aesthetics.
I literally bought re:birth 1 yesterday, and then this shows up in my recommendations. Talk about tracked browsing history
Hope you have fun with it :)
@@PikachuLee I am! The combat system is kinda weird at first, but super fun all the same
Almost 100% agree with this list. The only thing I'd change would be the rankings of the original PS3 trilogy. I'd put 1 and 2 below V.
1 in C tier, because of the dungeons and combat, and 2 in B tier only because I wasn't too keen on the 3D character models during cutscenes. Other than that, totally agree!
thank you for nep content
Maybe you could do a characters ranking list?
The R/W Discs were a lot of fun in the first game for PS3. The crazy skills in MkII and V were also great (Legendary Seven Skills)
U made me fantasize about a VR only title where you can play one of the goddesses with their powers and weapons in single player or with 3 others in co-op.
This was excellent! Thank you for that!
id really like to buy cyberdimension but the requirements say i cant run it..
but then again ive been fooled by requirements before so im not sure..
Man I just wish they would add 5pb back in as playable character she was so cute ;-)
Great vid YSN, I can totally see what you mean and get your opinions. Mine is very similar except I haven't played neptunia RPG yet but am greatly looking forward to it. I'd probably say the 1st one on ps3 is my favourite. I adore it quite a bit and it really seems to be where most of my love for the series comes from. I like them all but that one really is the one that sold me. Great content as always :3 any plans to do other tier lists in the future? Like possibly for Senran Kagura or Disgaea? Eh eh
Senran Kagura and Disgaea tier lists are definitely going to happen. I need to "freshen up" on Disgaea a little bit first (it's been a while since I played some of those games) so expect the SK vid to come out before that one.
@@YSN awesome!!! Thank you again for the great content! :D
That's actually pretty good tier list~
Some of them i completely agree with and some of them are just UNDENIABLY true xD
Iam looking forward for the Senran Kagura Tier List :D
So how soon can we expect the Disgaea and SK tier lists?
Coming to TH-cam in 2020
The platforming clip of Neptunia RPG reminds me of Armed With Wings.
So basically, the remakes wouldve also been in the A or B Tiers if you wouldnt have already played the originals
also imo dont marathon the rebirth trilogy, the 3 games are too similar. take a rest after 1&2 especially if you dont rush it. makes you appreciate rebirth 3 more.
I kinda agree with your list, the only exception is Sega heart Girl I would put in the E section. Only thing I didn't enjoy of that game was that it was time based. You have to fight the final boss within a few days otherwise the longer you take the stronger it gets. So unless you want to fight a Super Hard Final Boss you need to fight it within a time limit which doesn't let you explore more of the worlds or interact with the other Sega Girls.
it is the goal fight the strongest to get true ending 😊
Chrome from Super Neptunia RPG
Is basically good Arfoire from that weird non canon ending from RB1 I think ?
And also, Arfoire in the 3rd OVA
"Hidamari No Little Purple"
Ooooh so thats why i had the good ending in vr that now makes sense
And i dont get why cyberdimension isnt high on anyones list im glad that you lije it just as much as i do i do have a rank list on my channel if your interested
just started playing the first Rebirth never had the original games Loving the humour and the Characters are awesome and funny and you actually care about them as character not just how waifu some of them are, the next series im gonna play through is Senran Kagura
Funny thing is the only Neptunia game i have actually played and own is your top pick ,i have seen/watch a friend who have played the first three
o hope for 4 goddes online 2 with more maps and skills
Great overall! You've got there bro!
Rebirth 1(Official Superdimension) and Megadimension Vll are the best Neptunia mainline. They are from separate or different dimension, and 4GO is the only best Neptunia spin-off game.
Neptune is the most cutest protagonist and Noire is my top favorite Neptunia girl, that's why they are best girls.
Hyperdevotion Noire and PP sucked due Secretary and Self-insert, they deserve lower rank to F!
Subscribed!
Maybe the 3 rebirth games would be more fun to play though if the lvling and whatnot carried over from game to game, but then they might as well have been one game combined I guess.
8:42 agreed 100%
Do you think the S tier games are a good place to start. To get into the series
My favourite game in the series would probably be Vs sega hard girls
And I'm pretty sure Blanc Vs zombies world setting was based off of a short lived manga?
I thought RPG was pretty good, the game play and art style are fun and cute. But I thought the story was a bit lack luster
I do miss Compa Grandpa jokes. Or was it grandpappy? Yeah that's like an adoring character trait that only exist in the first game
Very enjoyable video! I don’t really agree with the main line rankings when it came to the rebirth games. I haven’t played the PS3 games. I’ve only watched videos of them, but I will say the way the story is done is much better than the rebirth games.
Yes, overall the Rebirth games certainly have a different tone compared to the PS3 games. I'm not surprised to see people who prefer one style over the other.
YellowSuperNintendo Yeah, thing I’m most annoyed with is that they changed things that didn’t need to be changed.
I've seen 3 minutes of VIIR gameplay and I'm already glad I rebought VII instead or trying the remake
but viir has more cut scene 😊
@@vkobevk I guess that makes v2r better for watching a youtube playthrough of the game, for example. Although some dialogue changes like the uni uzume swear scene have been cut out. Fair enough, good sir.
@@hristopavlov298 but viir doesnt have vii dlc, so not nepgya in viir 😥
VII = the best... and I also liked Neptunia RPG I have to confess.. noire + sega on vita also were not too bad. I only disagree on 4 goddesses, I did not like it at all (not even animated skits!!). For me it was unfortunately the beginning of the end for IF given all the crap that followed... RPG and Mary skelter apart ;) Personal opinion.
I don't know where else to ask so: are there any must-have DLCs for these games, outside of the cosmetic ones? I already have the additional characters for VII but that's about it
Though I only've played and bought the DLC for Rebirth 1 so far, I can say that the 3 additional content packs are absolute must haves
you can use dlc character and has more scenario, without dlc you never know nepgya best nep 😆
I'm fairly new to the series. I finished the re;birth trilogy as this comment and VII. Haven't gotten the chance to play the spin offs yet. But I'd say my favorite from what I played are 2>4>3>1. I found it surprising that you rank the original trilogy higher. When looking into the series I always heard playing the re;birth games were better. So I never touched the PS3 originals.
Would a newcomer to the series be able to jump right into one of the S tier games such as V2 or Neptunia RPG, or will the games lack impact without proper background from the other games?
Nah you'd be fine
Very good list, so the Rebirth Vita games are recommended because of better gameplay for the people who haven't played the PS3?
I need a mainline vr neptune game
IMO, I need to revisit the series. MK2 was my start and I liked Nepgear's progression into leading role. Victory warmed up to me cause I guess I can't accept certain things as Ultradimension shenanigans, but I wished Ploot was better executed. Her sadism is obviously uncalled for and I thought she should have been called out on it more. Haven't played Megadimension, guess I go with VIIR since that is the recent one.
Also, wtf is with Compile and remakes. Just port the damn things to PS5 like it is, the brand is popular enough that people would love to play the old stuff.
So when’s that Senran Kagura anime review gonna happen? Will it be Ninja Flash or Tokyo Youma-Hen? Also, have you played “Trillion, God of Destruction”?
To be honest Re Birth 2 is not favorable that i understand but Re Birth 3 is actually on pair with Re Birth 1 to me i mean it's had a cluster of characters and a very good core gameplay you can say that for me Re Birth 3 is like everything good with Re Birth 1 + fixing mistakes and enhanced from Re Birth 2 and Finally the Megadimension Neptunia VII is the most favorite for me by far, i don't like VIIR though.
My first game was Mk2 (in 2017...I arrived late to the series and all I had available at the time was a PS3 :/ plus it was like £10 so even if I found I didn't like it it's not like I spent a lot of money on it) and I really loved it, even if the game ran kind of badly in terms of FPS and using HDD was kind of pointless (used AP every turn, so unless you only wanted to use it for 1 or 2 turns you were basically restricted to low damage rush attacks, which counteracts the increased stats of HDD), it was my first PlayStation platinum trophy and agree with it's A rank.
Second game was Victory, it was ok, gameplay was a step up from Mk2, but I found the story less interesting. Also I'm a little biased because Nepgear is my favourite character and she was treated pretty badly there. I think I'd give it a B.
Third was VII, which to date is my favourite in the series. I loved almost everything about it, combat was really fun, story was great for the most part, comedy was great as usual, Uzume is a great character, really liked the Gold Third, Affimax and Kurome, art was great (dungeons, new cutscene portraits, next form designs, etc) and the music was amazing. However it wasn't perfect; the way the next forms was introduced in the first fight using them was badly done and the random encounters while fun initially just got annoying eventually as they never posed any potential threat after 10-15 hours or so. Also I usually don't mind fanservice, and actually quite like it (I mean...let's be honest, most of us who like the series are probably the same) but there were a few scenes where it felt unnecessary, particularly a scene in the Lowee route where Blanc, Rom and Ram are in bath towels for like 5 lines then go back to normal, I mean...why? However other than that scene, fanservice is about normal for a Neptunia game. Overall it was my third or so PlayStation platinum trophy (after Mk2 and I think another non-Neptunia game) and agree with it's S rank.
Next was Four Goddesses Online, and it was really enjoyable too. A great break from the mainline games I had played previously. Story was fun, but the ending was a little anti-climactic. Everyone was fun to play, but Uni was a bit overpowered and made the game really easy. I LOVED the outfit designs, they look really good and fit with their characters while still being a completely different style to their regular outfits (I particularly really liked Noire's outfit). Would have been nice to play the other characters (Uzume, IF, Compa etc), but it's not a huge problem. Other than the strange AI behaviour for the party members I never had a problem playing it on PS4 other than the 5 or so minute initial loading of the game, although I never tried the multiplayer. Was my 4th PlayStation platinum trophy and again agree with it's A rank.
Next was Action Unleashed (finally started PC gaming), and again I had a lot of fun with it. It was different enough from 4GO to still be fun, and although the clothes breaking was kind of unnecessary, it at least did have a gameplay function. Story was meh, it was alright, but kind of forgettable too. Gameplay was fast and it was a blast to just rip through massive hoards of monsters. Kind of felt similar to God of War 3 in that way. I'd agree with the B ranking.
Then was Re;birth 1. I really liked this game too. Gameplay was similar to Victory, but the story was a lot of fun and overall I enjoyed RB1 more than Victory. I'd give it an A or B rank, possibly leaning a little more towards A.
Then was Neptunia Shooter which was...interesting...
Next game was Super Neptunia RPG...which I got about 4 hours into and never finished. It's not that I wasn't enjoying the game, I was, it's just that I was going by quite slowly and then had to deal with some IRL stuff. I haven't picked it up since, but plan to do so at some point.
I also have SeHaGirls, Blanc+Neptune vs Zombies, HD Noire, VIIR, RB2 and RB3 which I plan to play at some point, but haven't gotten around to yet for similar reasons to why I still haven't finished RPG.
Dang there’s a whole empty tier between the bottom 3 and Producing-Perfection. I haven’t played p-p but it must be really bad lol
Also your thumbnails are honestly spectacular
I know the gap makes it look a bit harsh!
VIIR is also almost unplayable on PC, so there went my money.
Where would be a good place to dive in for a newbie to Neptunia? Trying to decide between the first one for PS3 or either of them for Switch
I wish there it was a way to play the original Neptunia game, but with the all the gameplay goodies of the rebirth remakes (even better using the VII gameplay) but it seems Im stuck watching the story on youtube
RPCS 3
you don't have to rank dem waifus. we all know that nepgear is best gurl!
Love this idea and a different perspective on the games. While I agree with the mainline series (I didn't mind the first game gameplay and I never played the remakes, never liked buying games twice if I already have the original) I have different opinions on the spin offs. I think both Blanc's game and hyperdimension u should both be C as I like them but I do play a fair amount of action games so they just might feel underwhelming to me. Cyberdimension I'd probably put at B just because I'm not really an MMO guy (on how the combat feels). And I would put Noire's game at A because I love tactics games. While I haven't played disgea I love Fire emblem and Final Fantasy tactics and while it's not as deep as those games it is still fun. I didn't really see the guy as a self insert (probably because I'm more of a Blanc guy lol) but I liked their interactions. The story wasn't amazing but it was enjoyable.
Looking forward to hearing more in the future and it was cool to hear this. Continue to spread the love of hyperdimension my people!
you are actually the only youtube so far that i follow on the "niche games" subject (i still just call them anime games),
and i just got curious. Have you ever played or at least seen a game called Honkai Impact 3rd?
Its a free to play phone game... a phone game?! what, me, playing a phone game. I have never liked any phone game since usually its just some low quality pay2win crap. BUT this one surprised me, after playing for a while i could actually compare it to many PC games that i play normally. Plus now there is an actual PC port, which works pretty well.
But anyway, the whole reason i had this question come up is because i was recently playing 4 Goddesses Online with a friend, and i realised how similar the gameplay is between these 2 games. I even kept mixing up the combat strategies XD
So simply im just curious what you think of the game, or have you ever played/seen it
thanks for insight
As a fellow Neptunia fan, I approve of this video, by the way have you played Date a Live Rio Reincarnation yet, it got a North American release last year and was worked on by Tsunako herself?
In terms of mainline series
1. Neptunia Victory
2. Neptunia Victory 2
3. Neptunia mk 2
1. Neptunia 1
VII is absolutely a blast. Makes me wish for VO for every part of the game.
Hopefully next mainline game has Vert as the protagonist.
I would switch Neptunia U with Cyberdimension because Cyberdimension is not hard, just monotonous since you have to spam the Heavy Attack/Heal Team skills to break the bosses and the further you progress, the slower it takes, so it's not hard, just boring. I do like the puns, the unique dungeons but Neptunia U has combos, there's no break system, it's a constant mayhem that does not feel monotonous even after doing the same thing over and over again. I love the medal system, i think it's a great addition to the game.
On the fly with little memory of the oldest titles:
01 Rebirth 1
02 SUPER NEPTUNIA RPG
03 SEGA HARD GIRLS
04 VII
05 Rebirth 2
06 BLANC VS ZOMBIES
07 4 GODDESSES ONLINE
08 Rebirth 3
09 HYPER DIMENSION NOIRE
10 PRODUCING PERFECTION
11 Action U
I don't ship anyone with Noire. since she deserves to be a loner.
i like your tierlist.
I don't know if it's something you even care about, but have you ever thought about talking about the powerscaling of SK, Neptunia and Disgaea?
I can't say I've ever heard of powerscaling, so I have no idea what you're asking.
@@YSN well in short, it's discussing how powerful characters, the various abilities they have and potentially how well they would fare in combat against characters in or out of their own verse
Neptunia como son muy complicados y hay problemas con todos los personajes todos eseto neptune
I agree with most of the rankings, but I'd swap Super Neptunia RPG with Cyberdimension 4GO since I had more glitches while playing Super Neptunia RPG believe it or not (mostly the magic glitch). And yeah, the AI is obviously janky in 4GO so I agree it isn't perfect either, maybe it's just me, but it somehow never crashed for me and I just liked it more overall.
Completely missed Neptunia RPG. Going to have to give that one a whirl!
Great video.
I just finished rebirth 1,2 and 3.
I enjoyed the stories a lot but felt the end of 3 dragged a lot.
I skid think the games would be better if they dropped some of the silly enemy types (like floating screens and Mario pipes) and went more with dungeon matching enemies.
I also hated the move to special moves being all tied to SP in 3 and so much being locked behind the challenges.
I am excited to now play megadimension.
It ref feels like I have eaten my veggies and now it’s time for desert.
ysn squad rise up
Fairy Fencer F Advent Dark Force would have been S tier in my book.
I think Super Nep RPG would have done better if they ever put it on mega sale like they do with all the other nep games.
Super RPG lacks too many combat nice to haves for me. Too complicated to switch party due to skill setup. Lowers it for me. Buffing also works oddly and not on par with expectation.
i love this series and my ranking would be
victory
rebrith1
original game
V II
4GO
AU
neptune vs sega hard girls
virtual stars
hyperdevotion noire
megatagmension
super neptunia
pp
rebrith3
rebirth2
mk2
I can agree with this ranking. It might be unpopular itself but Re;Birth3 deserves to be higher in my opinion and it isn’t really all that different from the original Victory game.
And yeah, I really can’t agree with Super Neptunia RPG being in S tier. It was pretty painful to play.
So V II > V II R which means when I buy *V II on the Nintendo Switch* instead of V II R on the the PS4, it’s not going to be a mistake?
VIIR is just the remastered version of VII
So the only thing is its no more 720p its now 1080p on VIIR
Switch version runs horrible. Would recommend the ps4 or steam.
@@kirbymaster1111 still its portable
And portable Neptunia Games are always better
I played Re;Birth 2 and 3 on PSVita and it was perfect
ReBirth 1 on PC was my first Neptunia, so that's my reference point for the tone of the series, but honestly, it's 'too playful.' Like nothing that happens matters at all, everything is just an excuse for the characters to have a funny reaction. I don't have a good sense of what the tone was like in the ps3 games.
I finished and enjoyed super neptunia rpg but i would give it a B as there are loading problems for me and its glitchy I've soft locked the game and other minor glitches multiple times but the combat and story are still very fun
I want an ArcSystemWorks Neptunia fighting game lmao.
This will never be true though, Nep games are already niche same with fighting game so yeah not happening.
Awesome tier list! I skipped your SNRPG segment because I want to stay as blind as possible, but I'm surprised to see it in the S rank! I'm really tempted to buy it on the Steam sale going on now...
Anyways, here's my tier list:
By the way, I haven't played the original trilogy, PP and SNRPG (also VIIR but I have strong opinions on it, so I'm leaving it here)
SPOILER WARNING for HyperDimension Neptunia Re;Birth 2/mk2 and MegaDimension Neptunia VII below!
*S:*
VII - it's just the best Neptunia experience out so far in my opinion. Amazing story, characters that actually develop, great worldbuilding, AWESOME soundtrack (I love the neptunia OSTs, and VII has most of the top tier ones in my opinion, like The Code and Whirlpool of Insanity, HOLY SHIT you HAVE to listen to them if you haven't already) and the best villain of the entire franchise. If you somehow haven't played this game already and you're watching this video, first of all, why did you ignore my spoiler warning (don't worry, spoilers are farther below), and second of all, GO PLAY IT!! It's completely worth it.
*A:*
Re;Birth 1 - The best starting point for the franchise, without a doubt. The characters are at their best here, compared to the other Re;Birth games at least (Vert, possibly compared to every mainline game). I don't have a lot to say here. A lot of the soundtrack used here is reused for every other Re;Birth game, and even though I really enjoy most of it, $100 and Blue Twilight start sounding kind of generic the more you listen to it. Even so, Title Screen Theme and Field of View really stand out to me, maybe it's just nostalgia at this point, it's just something special to me :)
Re;Birth 2 - A good introduction to the "main" dimension. This was the first Neptunia game I played (I watched Lost Pause's playthrough of the first game, and decided to start playing from there to avoid spoiling my experience - my play order ended up being 2 - 1 - 3). A lot of people hated Nepgear as a protagonist, but i really didn't mind it at all? Maybe because it was my first game, I got an unique experience out of it. It also contains one of the most emotionally powerful moments in the franchise, the Conquest Ending, which I consider one of the best Neptunia endings in general (maybe you could do an ending tier list? Ehhhh)
The Field of View theme from this game remains as my absolute favorite Neptunia track ever. It still gets me emotional sometimes. I just *had* to pull it up while writing this, and holy crap the memories it brings back are so wonderful. Again, maybe it's just something special to me, but this song is sooo powerful.
SeHa - This might be surprising, but I really really loved the characters and dialogue in this one, especially Neptune and Segami. I really enjoyed their back and forths, and honestly the humor and characters were way better than some mainlines *cough*ReBirth 3*cough*, I consider this spin off on par with the mainlines, even. I also was a bit disappointed Compa wasn't in IF's game, but I can't really think of a way to fit her character in this story anyways... maybe she'd stay in the Library with Histoire or something? The best track in this game is, without a doubt, Neptune's Platoon VS SEGA Hard Girls Suite. It's SOOOO good. Honestly, we need more Neptunia sountrack appreciation, because holy crap. I can't even.
Almost forgot to add: this game has, in my opinion, one of the best english dubs of the entire franchise. The only "down" I can think of is Dreamcast's voice, but the others, especially Segami and Neptune, ABSOLUTELY nail it. I only turned on the japanese voices sometimes in the Plutia segments because of Kana Hanazawa, but really other than that, it was just a really good dub experience.
4GO - I just finished this game last week, but I absolutely fell in love with it. The story is great, and it was really refreshing to see the CPUs interact with each other in the ways they did in this game (that is, Blanc and Vert actually talking like friends most of the time and only occasionally "discussing" breast sizes, which is like the opposite of their interactions ever since Re;Birth 2). I really enjoyed the new characters too, Bouquet especially (kinda hope they'll bring her in future games, though they did write the story in a way that it's viable if they don't, which is kinda sad). It's nice to have someone who *actually* could be Vert's sister so she could stop harassing Nepgear (a joke that I really never found really funny...)
The original soundtrack really is wonderful, I haven't had the chance to re-listen to it yet, so I haven't memorized the song names, but it was a blast to listen to every one of the new tracks while playing. I wish the Wishuel theme wasn't permanently changed after you beat the main story, though, it's definitely one of my favorites, and I loved to hear it every time I loaded my game ^^
*B:*
Action Unleashed - I don't have a lot to add here, it's mostly what you've said in the video.
*C:*
MegaTagmension - Same as Action Unleashed. The only thing I'd like to add is that the english dub for this game was really bad, in my opinion. I know it's supposed to emulate a low budget movie in a low budget game, but the VAs' fake crying was really unpleasant to listen to, and it happens in most of the scenes in the game. The Locker Room scenes were japanese-voiced only, so I just kept them on through the entire game, which I rarely do :P
*D:*
Re;Birth 3 - I just really didn't like the characters in this one. Plutia and Blanc are okay, but the other CPUs are a bit....... let's just say, if I started ranting about Iris Heart and V!Noire, this comment would be double the length..... I'll just leave it as, Noire is one of the worst characters of this entire franchise, and Iris Heart desperately needs character development, or at least some negative consequences for her actions that actually impact her character. Neptune isn't really funny and comes across as a bad sister to Nepgear, Vert's character is largely reduced to "has no sister but has big boobs", Nepgear is just a punching bag because apparently the japanese audience didn't like her as a main character in the previous game (which, well, didn't land well at all with me) so now she's called boring and useless in almost every scene she's in.
If there's anything good I want to say about Iris Heart in this comment, GODDAMN IT'S HER THEME SONG. IT'S FUCKING FIRE. I stopped playing the VN segments just to listen to it when it started playing, honestly. Big hit. Since I'm mentioning OSTs a lot in this comment, I couldn't go without mentioning it.
Hyperdevotion Noire - I started this game with possibly the lowest expectations possible. I've been told that this game might not have been worth to buy even when it was $2 (which it was, when I bought it), so I thought it would be awful. I was surprised to see myself enjoying the story for the most part (Noire automatically trusting the first stranger she sees TWICE, first with Arfy and then with MC, was kinda ehhh but the plot has to move forward I guess), and the self-insert was AWFUL, but it really wasn't that bad. The gameplay was interesting at the start, but mid-game onwards it was just boring. A lot of dungeons had so many traps, it took you like 10 turns of zig-zagging to get to the enemy's line, and then the enemies just get to ignore the hazards and hit you while you try to get to them, which was kind of annoying. The generals I thought were hit or miss. Some great ones, like Moru and Lee-Fi, and some awful ones, like Ai and Poona.

VIIR - I absolutely hate that this game exists, to be honest. It's effort that could've been spent on an actual new Neptunia game instead of a lazy cash grab. I've never bought and never plan on buying this ever. This is the game equivalent to the new Re;Birth DLCs, in my opinion. They even removed one of the most emotionally powerful moments of the franchise that is the Ascension ending, which, in my opinion, is a huge disservice to Uzume's character. VII is the definitive edition, without any doubt.
So yeah, those are my thoughts. Sorry, the comment ended up way longer than I had expected. Kinda strange that VII and VIIR are the top and bottom of my list, and I didn't plan to write about the soundtracks so much when I started writing this, but I just enjoy them so much it just ended up happening, I guess :D Sorry that this ended up so long. If you're reading up to here, what are your thoughts on the games' soundtrack?
Again, sorry this ended up so long... I just really love this franchise :D
but u and blanc vs zombie are shorter than rebirth 3 and hyperdevotion with less content 😊
but viir has more cut scene, vr and more informations about adult neptune and she try to be friend with kurome and convince her to give up her vengeance 😊
@@vkobevk I don't care if it's longer, obviously a mainline is going to be longer than a spinoff, I'm ranking them for the enjoyment, not the amount of content.
The points you make for VIIR don't change it's a shameless cash grab. Rereleasing the same game two years later with just a couple of throwaway cutscenes and a VR mode that could be used in a different game (maybe a VR spinoff) is still shitty.
Im glad to see nep rpg get some love. It's how I got into this series
Although I started with rebirth 1 then played the other rebirths and weren’t to happy with them. I went back and played the originals I loved them so much more. If you have ps3 play the originals you won’t regret it. I agree with the whole list except 1 thing I liked viir more then VII.. controversial but I liked then new battle system and enjoyed the new graphics. But I do agree that VII is still S tier. Spin off my favorites would be NepU and Super-dimension but again I like the battle system. I just don’t like the rebirth/mk2/VII battle systems.
Where'd the thumbnail image came from? It looks nice.
1:20 I don't know what you just said or what that means but I see your a thigh high guy.
