I would really like 4GO to be good but given it's being developed by Tamsoft it's probably going to be another lukewarm-as-gently caress brawler.

Amazingly there were no tweets describing it as it happened or any crowd pictures. There was mention of good graphics and physics but nothing more. These are Tamsoft's promotional images.

It's more of a developer event isn't it? Or maybe they had a restriction on pictures given they blurred their own content.

I do wonder what the main dev team is doing right now given this is a spinoff and the only other game is on mobile. Their current wave of Vita games is done, and Felistella isn't working on anything right now either. The gap between V and VII was 2012 to 2015 so I wonder if we'll hear anything about a new mainline installment before next year.

It's nearly exactly the same, except there's now input lag in menus. I don't know how Tamsoft manages to do these things.

The main thing, though, is that outside of certain conversations, nothing in the game is engaging or funny. It's so barebones; they could've even thrown in the outlandishness of Onechanbara, and yet they couldn't be bothered.

I don't regret buying it, but I just can't seem to care enough to try and finish it.

A Plutia game would put many a titty game on Vita to shame I imagine. It'd be Criminal Girls: Nep Edition.

This was awhile ago but I like to imagine in a Plutia game she'd be Iris Heart the whole time and be the villain, and you'd play as Battletoads knockoffs working to defeat her.

I'm assuming it'll be better just because it's in the same style as the mainline games, I'm just not sure if there'll be enough Nep humour in there given I don't really give much of a poo poo about SeHa.

One of the chapters is called "Make History Great Again"

It took me 14 hours total to beat the game, though it was totally by accident while trying to finish side missions and clear dungeons. Turns out an item drop room becomes the final boss room.

Four Goddesses Online is having a fake closed beta this week so there should be more updates.

On another note:

New Game Plus makes it very hard to get to some optional bosses if you've leveled up. Defeating Time Eater early causes a bad end.

Takoluka
Jun 26, 2009

Yeah, you have to basically turn your back to Time Eater every turn and don't defend, so it can deal enough damage the first time around.

I'm almost done with the plat for it again. I'm kinda surprised at how many small errors there are in this game's text. Also, everyone is an rear end in a top hat to each other.

It's a good game with a couple apparent flaws. The dialogue in the game isn't entirely representative of the series, because everyone comes off as really aggressive and angry all the time here, but it's still quite serviceable. I would suggest Re;Birth1 to new Nep fans, but if you like the Sega Hard Girls, you can't go wrong with Nep v. SeHa.

The open ended nature of the game is why it feels that way. After Neptune becomes a bike it splits into 4 stories that can be completed in any order which means they can't bond over the course of the game. Also, the goddesses and Hard Girls are at war with one another so of course they'd be on edge. They were pretty hostile in original Neptunia before they rewrote it.

Well, it's more so that IF and Segami are kinda assholes to everybody, and even Nepgear loses some of her V2 characterization.

The Tamsoft-developed action RPG sees the goddesses chosen to participate in a beta test for Four Goddesses Online. The goddesses go on a journey to save the world from the threat of the demon king, to meet their other selves, to play together and make friends, and to get their little sisters.

A new character named Bouquet (voiced by Aya Uchida) will also appear. She is an artificial intelligence-equipped NPC and guardian spirit who gives advice to adventurers in various locations. Bouquet was born from an interview in Dengeki PlayStation with Vert voice actress Rina Sato, though that doesn’t mean she’s someone’s little sister.

Poor Vert, so close and so far.

That's just a weird thing about Steam, if one of a game's installers or something updates, any title you have installed with that as part of the package 'patches'. If a really common program has an update and you have like... 20 games using some audio driver installed, expect about 16 4mb "patches" to download without any info.

Sounds about right. They seem to have noticed how well their games are selling on Steam so I doubt they are going to keep much of their catalogue restricted to consoles/handhelds.

Also, your Stellaris mod is great.

Thanks, though apparently the new patch is making people crash on a broadscale so I'm working on isolating the bug. Planning to get it fixed this afternoon.
