For those of you who don't follow this series, that means that the new Neptunia game is a remake of Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1 Plus which was a remake of Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1 which is a remake of Hyperdimension Neptunia.
My take, as well.
Well, if we want to say anything is stretching, technically all of the ports were really just enhanced ports/reworks. None of them was truly ever a "remake" in the vein of what most consider a remake to be. But I think the main point really is that it's a remake of a port of a port.
To be fair, it was always called a remake, but that was before we were inundated with remakes. Quite a few things were changed (performance was actually better in most cases) but the game is largely the same. The Vita version might as well just be enhancement patches for the PS3 version and then downscaled to work on the Vita. It's easily the better version, though. I can't comment on Plus since I didn't feel the need/want to get it, but I can't imagine it being worse.
I love the series but that first game was basically unplayable. The later games and the remake improved on it so much.
Was it? I thought they completely changed the battle system to be like mk.2 and later.
For rebirth they made the system work more like V than the original. The game is still definitely Neptunia, though, not V or mk2.
While that's true, I truly don't see this game getting the Disgaea effect simply by the fact that the PS5 isn't going to be a desirable product in Japan, even more at launch. This game will also not going to take advantage of any PS5 feature. A dual PS4/PS5 release would make much more sense.
(I love them too)
