A little counter-programming for anyone who isn’t checking out Hellblade 2.

    So the Neptunia series might be the most Japanese, uwu, waifu and weeb-styled game I’ve ever seen. Just check out a trailer. So I was very surprised when I learned it was coming to Xbox.

    I’ve never played any of these games but the premise is hilarious and honestly pretty interesting. There are waifu’s who represent different video game consoles. And yes there is an Xbox waifu. Her name is Vert.

    This particular game looks like it’s handling the rise of mobile gaming and dealing with that. They need to get help from the “PC continent” whatever that means lol.

    The Xbox store tagline is “Gamindustri is on the brink of destruction” or something like that. So I expect a lot of meta humor.

    I hope some day they make Xbox versions of the other games in the series because they regularly talk about “The Console Wars” as an in-world event/war. There is currently 1 other Neptunia game planned for Xbox. I hope they both do well enough for them to consider bringing more.

    The Xbox version gets all DLC that was locked to previous deluxe editions so that’s cool. It’s Play Anywhere for anyone who has a PC or a ROG Ally or other PC handheld. It’s $40 US.

    That’s about all I know. I’ll be checking it out a when it releases and it’s one of the most Japanese games that I would have never thought would make its way over to Xbox. Really shows how much Xbox is improving in that area.

    Again, please check out a trailer so you know what you’re getting into before you buy lol. But anyone here gonna check this out?
    I play a ton of JRPGs on Xbox but never anything like this.
    A humorous meta JRPG sounds really fun.
    And yeah Vert is the Xbox waifu so I’ll be putting her in my party whenever I get a chance.

    Ok I played like 30 min and this is a shock to my system lol. Please watch some gameplay or a trailer so you know what you’re getting into. I’ve never played a game trying to be “cute” before.

      Xbox needs more games like this and less like the generic, “AAAA” live-service slop most of the big companies are making.
