story13 positive mentions
grinding2 negative mentions
  • Improved and engaging real-time action combat system with combo chaining and EXE Drives, considered better than Sisters VS Sisters by many.
  • Fun and meme-filled story featuring 'Adult Neptune' and new characters, with high-quality voice acting and charming character banter.
  • Interesting game studio management mechanics that tie into combat through Disc development; adds strategic depth and a fresh gameplay layer.
  • Dungeons are large but often tedious and poorly designed, with cumbersome puzzles, excessive backtracking, and inconsistent use of the motorcycle traversal feature.
  • The combat system can feel chaotic, floaty, and easy to cheese with some overpowered Disc combinations; lacks depth for hardcore RPG fans.
  • Technical issues including screen tearing due to no VSync, 60 FPS cap, occasional stuttering, limited graphical options, and always-online DRM affecting save file access.

  • story

    53 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    25% positive mentions, 69% neutral mentions, 6% negative mentions

    The story in this game is generally seen as simple and straightforward, focusing on a classic good vs. evil theme with some twists, and is considered less engaging than its predecessor "Sisters vs Sisters." While the narrative includes new characters and moments of humor, many find it average or just functional, serving mainly to support the gameplay rather than stand out on its own. Some players appreciate the unique elements and character development, but overall it's viewed as an adequate but unremarkable aspect of the game.

    • “The core of the story is seeing the four main character girls struggle, succeed and grow from their experiences as game makers.”
    • “While it isn't anything too crazy, I believe it is probably the most serious a Neptunia title tries to be. It is definitely a unique and funny story with new characters and old characters, one being adult/big Neptune, who we haven't really seen besides VII, so it's kinda neat how we got a full-length spin-off game with her in the lead.”
    • “Alongside the familiar meme-filled story progression and dungeon crawling, the game adds a fresh element of managing the company’s reputation and improving the quality of the games it produces.”
    • “The story is not much to write home about; while it contains some surprises and twists, it remains a relatively simple good vs evil story.”
    • “Doesn't advance the plot forward in any way; another multiverse to go to where everything is inconsequential in the end.”
    • “Directions of story and where to go is bad. You can clear dungeons you unlocked before the story even mentions to go there. This can be confusing if you like taking care of available dungeons before story unlocks them for you.”

  • gameplay

    21 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    38% positive mentions, 48% neutral mentions, 14% negative mentions

    The gameplay is generally praised for its fun combat and engaging mix of real-time action battles with combo systems and studio management mechanics, adding variety beyond typical dungeon crawling. However, some users find the combat repetitive and lacking depth, and criticize the lack of a clear quest overview and intrusive, unskippable interactions that can disrupt flow. Despite minor technical issues like occasional stuttering, the gameplay is considered a solid and enjoyable entry in the series with familiar humor and features.

    • “The gameplay is fun; I'm 12 hours in and not finished chapter 2. There are at least 9 chapters.”
    • “The gameplay is awesome like all the Neptunia games and this game also has a micro management studio management sim with growing your game dev studio and disc crafting. The real-time action battles with its combo systems and EXE drives make this really fun!”
    • “Besides advancing the story and clearing dungeons, the player can also enjoy managing the game studio in Victory Plaza: recruit creators, check e-mail, promote games, develop game discs, etc. This adds a lot of engaging gameplay outside of combat.”
    • “A major problem (the biggest issue in my eyes!) with the gameplay is the lack of a quest overview.”
    • “But you could also argue that this reduces some of the combat system’s depth, since you strip it of its mechanics and just spam one thing to win.”
    • “Interacting with some objects cannot be skipped, which can make gameplay a bit frustrating.”

  • humor

    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The game's humor blends cozy, meta jokes and lively voice acting to deliver a cheerful, chaotic experience that balances funny antics with some emotional growth. While some characters lean on familiar tropes, their amusing scenes and the unique, lighthearted story keep the tone engaging and enjoyable for fans. Overall, it offers the classic Neptunia humor that appeals both to series loyalists and newcomers seeking a fun, quirky adventure.

    • “In this game, they become mainstay party members alongside the CPUs and the game gives them lots of funny scenes again, which I really enjoyed.”
    • “A lot of funny antics, but also some emotional growth.”
    • “Voice acting supports both Japanese and English, letting you fully enjoy Nep's looseness, liveliness, and humor.”

  • graphics

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The graphics receive mixed feedback, with some praising their quality, while others criticize major technical issues such as screen tearing, stuttering, locked 60fps, and lack of graphical options or ultrawide support. Additionally, the focus on graphics is noted to have come at the expense of other budget areas, though fans often prioritize gameplay and fan service over visuals.

    • “The writing, the graphics, the introduced characters.”
    • “4) All graphics: last but not least, just like with SVS, they also focused on graphics, and cut the budget everywhere else.”
    • “The graphics are nice.”
    • “The port has major screen tearing issues with no fix, zero graphical options, major stuttering, hard coded resolutions, lack of ultrawide support despite the game supporting it if forced, and a locked 60fps.”
    • “All graphics: the developers focused on graphics but cut the budget everywhere else.”
    • “They could have used SVS dungeon assets, which work fine and are used in earlier acclaimed games, but chose not to, showing a disregard for graphics quality.”

  • optimization

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The game suffers from poor PC optimization, including screen tearing, major stuttering, locked 60fps, and lack of graphical options or ultrawide support. However, it runs smoothly on the Steam Deck with no significant performance issues, offering a noticeable improvement over previous titles.

    • “Fans call it a cheerful step up from Sisters vs Sisters, with smoother PC/Deck performance and fair regional pricing.”
    • “Edit: I played a while longer, this time on my Steam Deck and it runs quite nicely, didn't really encounter any kind of performance issues so that's quite good.”
    • “Aside from that the port is bad with major screen tearing issues with no fix, zero graphical options, major stuttering issues, hard-coded resolutions (and a lack of ultrawide support despite the game supporting it fine if forced) and a locked 60fps.”
    • “Not really any PC optimization settings.”

  • grinding

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Grinding in the game is present but less intense compared to previous titles, involving some management elements that add a slight strategic layer. However, dungeon exploration can feel tedious due to repetitive tasks like repeatedly unlocking doors. Overall, the grinding is noticeable but not overly burdensome.

  • character development

    The character development is present and allows each character to have their moment to shine, suitably fitting the game's overall purpose and style.

    • “There is character development and each character gets to shine in their own way for a bit, and it's enough for what this game is trying to do.”

  • replayability

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 100% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    • “Soundtrack is phenomenal (quality over quantity), and I much appreciated the new dynamic feel of the visual novel character models with their idle animations.”

  • stability

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game experiences significant glitches when running above 60fps, indicating that the developers chose to cap the framerate rather than fully resolving stability issues.

    • “SVS had severe glitches when running above 60fps, so it looks like they just capped the framerate instead of fixing the bugs.”
