[Nep and Evaan] Neptunia Stuff Reworks

Noire mother would need some clever kids to keep from being left in the bathtub by mistake.

>Hell, mk2 had processor sets for the candidates based on the 3DS and Vita, the latter of which wasn't even out at the time
But had the Vita been announced at that time? Also, I thought Rom and Ram were always based on the 3DS.
>V even had the W11u hammer as a DLC weapon for Blanc.
I'd be damned if that DLC wasn't released after the Wii U was revealed, or apparently Compile Heart has industry insider knowledge.
Regardless, and I will continue pressing this point, UD and HD by the end were in the same hardware generation. You can't place an arbitrary number on how long a generation should last to say HD was a generation ahead. All CH had to go on at that time was rumors, and what if those rumors were false like they often are? DLC is irrelevant to this point as it was made after the game and its story was finalized.
>What I think is that CH was simply trying to make their own retelling of the history of game consoles
I think UD would have been better to stay as a sort of "retro dimension" based on the 80s/90s rather than having it on par with HD. Because it really makes me feel it's just going to become a copy of HD eventually.
>And they fucked it up right quick by making Sega and Sony eternal besties, introducing the PC engine too late, etc
I think this is just evidence they weren't actually interested in making an "accurate retelling".
>Maybe an accurate retelling would have required a much bigger role from Blanc, since even during their bad years they've commanded the attention of the whole industry.
That would likely require them to rewrite Chapter 3/2 and dickride Lastation less in general. Again, see my point above.
>Might be because the game already had the AI goddesses
Do AIs ACTUALLY count as another instance of Blanc/N*ire/Vert, though? I feel like whatever logic could be used to say "yes" could also be used to make things like Fake/Pseudo goddesses count as well.
>Still, imagine three Blancs in one game...

I don't think Neptune is as irresponsible as *some* people make her out to be (e.g., Histoire). She rarely if ever fails to step up if something's truly at stake. I definitely think she would try hard to be a good mom for her kids. Even if Histoire DOES have to lend a hand sometimes, but then again, that's what she's there for anyway.

>Also, I thought Rom and Ram were always based on the 3DS.
Nope. In fact their processor sets in mk2 are allusions to the DS lite and DSi.
>I'd be damned if that DLC wasn't released after the Wii U was revealed
Oh, absolutely, but the point of the matter is it marked the point that the whole industry was gearing up for new hardware. That is usually how it goes, someone releases new hardware and then the other hardware manufacturers are expected to respond sooner or later.
>All CH had to go on at that time was rumors, and what if those rumors were false like they often are?
Actually there were PS4 devkits already in the hands of developers in 2012.
>I think UD would have been better to stay as a sort of "retro dimension" based on the 80s/90s rather than having it on par with HD.
That would have made zero sense with the portal open and potentially devastate the entire dimension. The 3D gold rush was fucking real, it took years and years before 2D games regained any prestige beyond throwbacks made for hardware that couldn't handle 3D. Also one of the goals V had was reestablishing and reintroducing the main goddesses.
>I think this is just evidence they weren't actually interested in making an "accurate retelling".
No, just t heir own. Which we have established is flawed and inaccurate as hell.
>That would likely require them to rewrite Chapter 3/2 and dickride Lastation less in general. Again, see my point above.
There'd still be plenty of Lastation dickriding to satisfy them, PS fucking dominated the 5th and 6th console generations. By miles and miles.
>Do AIs ACTUALLY count as another instance of Blanc/N*ire/Vert, though? I feel like whatever logic could be used to say "yes" could also be used to make things like Fake/Pseudo goddesses count as well.
They're full characters in the game that you can even bring into your party. It counts.

>Also, I have a question, should we include skinsuits? Like the suits you see in media like Psyvariar and Evangeleon.
To err on the safe side, only skin-covered ones. I feel non skin-colored skinsuits these days fall in the "safe horny" camp, especially when they're used to censor characters/outfits that showed skin previously, similar to leggings (such as 2nd pic related and the usual redditards writing apologia about how it's better than the original design).

>For Wii, you can add Manhunt 2. A game so graphic and violent that it initially received an AO rating and had to be censored to get it to M. Even the censored version still got banned in several countries (Germany, Malaysia, New Zealand and South Korea). As far as I know, the Wii version did not receive any additional censorship.
I have looked into Manhunt 2 previously, and the Wii version is now the least censored version of all the "official" releases. There was previously the full uncensored AO version of the game that you could buy digitally for PC, but it's no longer available. Outside of that, there's also the PS2 beta version that is both uncensored and retains some exclusive content that is missing from the PC/Wii release (But still present in the official PS2/PSP release).

However I'm hesitant to add a game "just" for it's violence because that mostly gets a pass from these companies. And the last time the industry came together "collectively" to demand censorship of a game because of it's violent content was regarding Hatred, and Thrill Kill prior to that.

There are some games that Nintendo seems to have banned or censored specifically for their violence, such as Christmas Massacre, Gungrave G.O.R.E., and Death end re;Quest Code Z. But I mainly bring up Manhunt 2 as a contrast to how the industry handled its controversy versus how they handle the controversies of games like Omega Labyrinth Z. Manhunt 2 getting banned in sveral countries did not cause anyone to change their policies. So then why did Sony apparently decide to moralfag over Omega Labyrinth Z? If they could shrug off Manhunt 2's controversy, they should have been able to shrug off Omega Labyrinth Z. Just because Bongistan called it CP doesn't mean everyone else thinks that's what it is, even in Bongistan itself, or that it should be banned everywhere, or Australia would be dictating what everyone gets and I'm pretty sure no one agrees with that.

I sort of get your point. So what games should be included then for their violent elements then? Most that come to mind are horror games.

Resident Evil 4 being a timed Gamecube-exclusive is an example. The first two Death end re;Quest games on Switch, while not as violent as Code Z, are also examples. Puppet Combo specializes in graphic, edgy games including one called Nun Massacre with religious themes tossed in for good measure and they had no issues releasing on Switch until Christmas Massacre got blocked all of a sudden. And of course, the Grand Theft Auto games. Which modern Nintendo will only certainly give a pass just because they're AAA games, but it and stuff like Cyberpunk 2077 and Ass Creed Niggers can be used as an example of Nintendo giving blatant passes to high-clout games that lower-clout ones wouldn't get.

You're referring to the original HDN, right? If so, alas, I'm not much help here. I intend to play it eventually, but I imagine it will be a while down the road.

I have no idea if this is the best way to go about it but I usually just stick to the pre-set sword, hand to hand and gun routes and set attacks from least powerful to most powerful. I usually put transformation attacks on the last triangle attack and combo link on the last circle and cross attacks. Never had any trouble with this setup.

>set attacks from least powerful to most powerful
I don't think this is a good way to do it. If it's anything like the later games, every combo attack you use adds to your wait time, so you should set your strongest attacks first in line so you can kill the enemy faster and not have to use as many moves.

>Mind 0
i got an amazon gift card as consolation for dropping out of college and being hikineet for 2 years, and bought that with it, among other things. i've had it described to me as "persona 4 but first-person and with a worse story", but i feel like people tend to trash on literally any JRPG that isn't normie approved, and a first-person dungeon crawler with persona's (or twewy i guess) setting, tone, and writing (and soundtrack, ideally) is something i'd love to see more of. i'm excited to get to this...eventually.
>Freedom Wars
my childhood Wii randomly spontaneously combusted one morning and i wanted to replace it. the game store that i went to had a deal going where if you bought a new console, you could get any one game for free. they didn't have any wii/gamecube games i really wanted, and i looked in the vita section and saw Freedom Wars, so i got it. i've only really gotten up to the tutorial and character creation, it seems fun, but the controls feel a bit...cluttered, if that makes sense? i don't know how to describe it. i probably should've gotten the remastered version, especially because this game seems to have an emphasis on multiplayer, but i don't like the industry's current obsession with r

By "Meganep" do you mean VII or Megatag (Blanc's spinoff)?
>Perhaps maybe instead of changing physically you might be able to show a more mature change in Rom and Ram by showcasing them being more mature acting in their HDD forms.
That would be strange if it was limited to just their HDD. As I said, the whole thing with the goddesses' HDD forms is that they emphasize certain aspects of their personalities that are already there. If you limit Rom and Ram's "growth" to their HDD forms, it creates a disconnect.

I meant that the HDD change would be a reflection of their growth, but I doubt Nep is gonna get any mainline game any time too, Sisters V Sisters was the closest thing to a truly mainline game.
