It’s these moments that connect with the audience, and in this case, bring them along for the ride and make them laugh. It’s like when the actors of a pantomime involve the audience in the dialogue of the story. You are not just watching the events but are part of this journey too. It’s such a hook, and so well written and funny that it feels like a breath of fresh air. The game breaks not only the fourth wall between game and gamer but also the fifth (Yes the fifth wall is a thing!) The writing openly attacks the fifth wall with the narrative, plays with it, and then uses it to further the story. Where Neptunia ReVerse excels is in its witty, hilarious, and superbly acted dialogue. These sequences are visually exciting and inflecting a well-earned power move upon a foe is a true visual highlight. Having pleasant visuals to watch during the lengthy dialogue sections softens the blow somewhat, as do the excellent special effects of powerful moves, or character transformations during combat. The bulk of the game is presented in visual novel form, and the characters have sharp and interesting designs. The artwork does its best to add interest, however, it’s certainly not a beauty. The situation is exacerbated by the fact that the true in-game cutscenes still appear to be rendered in 720p, well below the crisp 4K we expect today! Even though you may wince at how basic the visuals are during exploration and combat, the world you get to explore is colourful, sharp, varied and interesting. I’ve never been one to expect much in terms of graphics from a JRPG, as the genre never really excels in that department (and I’ve long been a proponent of gameplay being more important than graphics). After recently completing Ratchet and Clank on the PS5, going straight into this was like falling off a cliff in graphical standards. The first hurdle you will need to get over, though, is the graphics. Looking at the game objectively, it is your typical JRPG Girl loses her memory and has to get it back, to do so needs to do quests for someone to help her, turn-based combat, fan service, average graphics, visual novel, same as every other JRPG, right? Despite the familiar premise and well-worn tropes, this game goes above and beyond through its delightful world, characters, and highly amusing narrative that pulls you through the lengthy dialogue of this excellently told story.
I have played many Neptune games, including their most recent game, Neptunia Virtual Stars, but never have I laughed so much, so loud and for so long as here with Neptune in Neptunia ReVerse. This game is still a corker in its own right! Neptune and her friends must traverse through this shmup space dimension and defeat the last boss once and for all!Ĭoinciding with the 10th Anniversary of the Hyperdimension series, the first PS5-exclusive JRPG from Idea Factory/Compile Heart is Neptunia ReVerse, which is a remake of a remake of a PS Vita game! However, don’t be confused or let the substandard graphics in the trailers put you off. After defeating each boss, they will join your mission, allowing you to switch characters and utilize their unique shooting abilities. Shoot, dodge, and defeat the boss in six unique bullet-hell worlds.
