Go with Re;Birth 1, and follow the remakes from there on. Available for PC or Vita.
Translation Statuses are: HDN, Mk2, Victory, and many Spinoffs: NISA cancer, a retranslation of Hyperdevotion Noire is possible. Re;Birth 1, V-II: Translation is alright, no worries from these ones. Re;Birth 2: Not obviously bad at the start, but gets much worse as it goes along: in particular Neptune and Ram were screwed hard during localization. However, there is a Re;Translation made on our very own board (see above links). Re;Birth3: Better than the original NISA translation in Victory but still quite a lot of cancer. Main game has been retranslated, translators still required to translate DLC content.
And I want to spar, adventure and cuddle for excessive durations with Noire. And get comfy with her on an uneventful evening
What would you feed her?
All Neps have incredibly pattable heads.
David Powell
First for the nep memes.
Grayson Peterson
How fast is she?
Liam Gutierrez
Fast enough to gain brouzouf. And her legs are OK.
Sebastian Young
Eggplant pudding.

Does Blanc Vs Zombies get better past Scene 5? Because after playing Shinovi Versus that really did make it hard for Blancs game to compare, it feels slow in comparison.

Apparently the online is much better.
Shame it's region locked

I'm scared that the online is dead by now though.

I never managed to figure out which one of these Vert figurines I liked more. Which one looks deserving of my shekels?
This might be the actual big announcement they promised for Neps way back when.
Parker Murphy
Is that the Life Tree Yggdrasil? If so, then that means it's probably in a fantasy world. And 4GO was supposed to be a fantasy setting. Either that, or someone from Compile Hearts lurks here and noticed how much we talked about 2hu and is now making a cross over, the tree in the background being the Saigyou Ayakashi.
Brandon Howard
Possibly, but if it were 4go they would've used the paladin outfit instead of Nep's default hoodie.
Justin Bennett
How to easily reduce a game's lifespan with one of the choices you could make
Looks too much like Touhou
Thats going to be very controversial if they decide to thatā¦
Course they could also be attempting to make a Neptunia themed Danmaku which wouldn't really be out of the question
Lucas Anderson
Oh, you're right. Never mind then. Touhou it is, then.
Noah Cox
I'm not sure if Team Shanghai Alice would agreeā¦then again I'm curious
Brayden Roberts
I'm more interested in 2hus drawn by Tsunako, but having Neps drawn by a drunk man could be funny too.
Jonathan Hughes

And do lewd things together while Nepgear sleeps
I was asleep as well when it was made
Andrew Sanchez
Does Uni prefer NATO or slavshit?
Brayden Wright
Well, she often uses something that is like the MG30, and the MG3 is a descendant of that weapon. Besides, a FAL would go better with her aesthetics than an AK, so I'd say it's NATO.
Caleb Cruz
I want to have children and raise them with Nepgear. And for the temperature to cool down, as it's actually becoming heavy.

Jacob Brown
It has mostly been ports/remakes of their older games to PC and Vita recently user. The two newest games were V-II and Blanc's game, and they play nothing alike.
The games aren't really known for being incredibly hard user.
Jonathan Clark
I know, even though the first game left me completely on the ropes because of how badly designed it was
Daniel Reyes
Well, it would make sense that Noire would have access to weapons like those.
Ryan King
Tell me about it. Currently really enjoying VII and still haven't even played RB3. Nor the upcoming Nep games. Nor all of the spin-offs. Although I shouldn't expect much from the spin-offs, so much more content awaits. And I'm really excited for it
I don't know how I'm enjoying these games so much, but I'm glad I do.
Anthony Hernandez
It really makes you think
Ryder Gonzalez
Exhausted all that I care to get in Re;Birth1. From what I've seen of the OP, Re;Birth2 stars the sisters. Besides that, are any characters unlockable via the Remake system?
Jaxon King
In RB;1? No, it is just the sisters.
Jonathan Moore
I meant in RB2. Any unlockable characters? Don't want to overspend on MB only to find out too late that I could've unlocked a unit or something.
Jordan Fisher
I misunderstood you then. In RB;2 yes. there are unlockable characters the oracles. There are 4 at 1024 MBs each.
Jason Gutierrez
You have to NG+ to unlock all four Oracles anyways, at best you might be able to pick up one or two on your first run.
Luke Taylor
So it's just like the sisters in RB1. Had to play twice to get them all. I take it half those Oracles don't come in a pair like Ram and Rom?
Also, watching the prologue. How does the A (as in Arifore) in ASIC exist? Wasn't Arifore purified at the end of RB1 or will I learn what's going on later?
Logan Martinez
One for Each Nation. A different dimension user, RB;2 and onwards follows the same narrative. RB;1 is by itself.
David Walker
ā¦what? Is that why Nepgear just acted as if the other CPU Candidates don't exist? Bugged me that Rom, Ram, and Uni was nowhere to be found in the prologue. Assumed they weren't canon until a certain chapter.
But seriously, aside from the ASIC thing nothing indicated a different dimension.
Jace Green
I was confused as well when I first played RB;2. RB;1 is considered the Supedimension, while RB;2 and onwards the main dimension is the Hyperdimension.
Cameron Lee
R;B1 is considered a different Superdimension, while R;B2 is the Hyperdimension and R;B3 is the canon Superdimension
Cooper Collins
The first Neptunia game (the one on PS3) ended with an ending that didn't allow a sequel. So they retconned the series starting with the second game. RB1 is not a remake of the original Neptunia game, but RB2 and RB3 are remakes of the second and third game respectively. It would've made more sense to people had RB1 been a remake, but someone decided not for some fucking stupid reason.
The dimension in RB3 is called Ultradimension.
Ethan Hill
Ah okay my mistake
Jack Lee
So apart from getting to know the characters, there was absolutely no reason to play RB1 and possibly wasted my time? So long as you're both sure that the continuityā¦
Oh my fucking God.
Also, is there an .exe with an unlocked camera like the first game?
Ethan Carter
What he means in RB;3 is that there are two dimensions at play. The Hyperdimension from RB;2 and a new dimension called the Ultradimension. I'm not sure about the camera, but it is highly recommended to use the Re;translation made by anons here for RB;2 and 3.
Jackson Watson
There's a new dimension every game, which is why every game is considered canon in its own right.
Levi Fisher
Ahh timelines, my favorite.
Juan Nelson
I might regret it later on but I'll apply the retranslation on a NG+, after switching on the Japanese voices. That's what I tend to do when a game has both. Japanese voices and NG+ I mean.
Considering how serious things actually got in the prologue I nearly forgot this is a parody series.
Xavier Adams
This has to be the most serious and dark parody game series about cute girls doing cute things I've seen.
Adam Howard
Not dark and serious enough
Where's Conquest End 2.0?
Adam Long
If I remember correctly the Nips hated Conquest, I don't know if they would be very happy to see another ending like it.
Leo Collins
Conquest was pretty lame though.
Adam Clark
I'd rather not, its already been done once.
Doing it again will just feel like "Hey, we have no confidence in this game, so lets make another scene like conquest so we can get people to play or talk about it because shock value"
And honestly, I'm fucking tired of the whole "Turn something happy into something dark & gritty" shtick. Its imo overused
Lincoln Allen
Where do Neps go when they die?
Kevin Jenkins
The respawn room
Hunter Perry

Grayson Sullivan
They don't die. The Neps are eternal
Carter Murphy
Doesn't that only apply to CPUs and the candidates? I've never seen that for the makers or oracles.
Levi Jackson
Histy is immortal as far as I know
Hunter Powell
I mean if were talking about actual lifespan and not videogames or content lifespan then yeah eventually the humans will die
Sebastian Sullivan
Oh yeah, I forgot the other nations have one maybe.
Blake Turner
Does that mean we'll eventually get to see a grandma Compa and IF?
Brandon Robinson
Almost forgot that my ID changed again
John Hall
Re;Birth1/HDN1 Histy are both obviously immortal. Hyperdimension Histy is a construct created by the first Planeptune CPU to record history so she's immortal too. It can be assumed Ultradimension Histoire is of a similar position.
William Ward
If they actually decide to make the humans age throughout future titles then yeah, possibly
Blake Hughes

Eli Richardson
That's great.
What about CPU Rei? Would you dare even if you got on her good side before her, uh, transformation?
You got the right idea.
Anthony Parker
She's not autistic, she's just socially awkward, there's a difference.
Asher Gonzalez
first he made a Uzume/Segami doujin now he makes OH doujin and judging by description she'll wear different clothes RIP US

RB1 is a semi-remake of the original HDN, made to be softer than the original (CPUs legit HATED each other in the original). But the devs basically wrote themselves into a corner with the original HDN because the good ending involved The CPUs sacrificing all of their goddessly power to make a single goddess to bring about peace, therefore making them become mortals.
Andrew Torres
AFAIK R;B2 is the only one with a camera mod that unlocks the dungeon camera as well. R;B1 only has the equipment page camera mod, and R;B3 actually included the plan that unlocks the equipment camera (was in the Vita versions of all three games, but only seemed to survive getting ported to the third game).
Cameron Nelson
is that true? thats kind of chilling
Alexander Flores
not really unless you're a puddingor her husbando
Gavin Anderson
What's so chilling about it? The tone of HDN was very different from the later games. It was much more satirical about the industry compared to the sequels.
Levi Robinson
especially becoming mortals
James Mitchell
In retrospect, Mk2/RB2 conquest is kind of a reversal of this concept, with all of the consoles being pooled into a single entity with the result being a peaceful but stagnant world/industry. Do you think the writers did that deliberately?
Samuel Cook
i imagine the idea of a monopoly leading to stagnation was intentional but i couldnt say if they specifically wanted to pull off a reversal
David Peterson
Fug.
Jayden Williams
Does anyone else have a fetish for Purple Heart's voice? I didn't realize I found deep, mature, womanly voices sexy until I heard her for the first time.
Blake Fisher
I'm freaking in love with Purple Heart's voice.
I guess that's one of the reasons why i also like Kagura from Senran Kagura.
Well the only thing similar about the games is the setting, and even then they made it much brighter in RB1 whereas HDN had a dark atmosphere the entire game. I mean, they kept some of the interactions similar, but ultimately changed all the characters in some way. And the character importances as well. In HDN, the overall story was about Neptune, IF, and Compa's adventure in Gamindustri. The other CPUs were optional characters. In RB1, they completely changed the storyline to focus on the CPUs and shove IF and Compa to the sidelines. So while RB1 does have some callbacks to HDN, I wouldn't classify it as a remake of any kind.

Kevin Clark
if it were a crossover then why is Tiara there instead of, I dunno, the main character of the game?
Jonathan Bell
Fang isn't a cute girl
Lincoln Torres
I always wondered what the purpose for the claws are. They have weapons so it doesn't look like they'd need them
Ayden Robinson
I was so busy thinking Nepgear to be Sanae that the thought never crossed my mind. I like it.
Caleb Taylor
After looking at the poll posted here , I knew that shadow looked familiar (Even though I've never touched FFF)
Well, its probably not going to be a Danmaku or anything 2hu related like I thought it was. Maybe it really is a crossover of Tsunako's works
Jordan Roberts
So is this a Nep and Fairy Fencer crossover?
Adam Rogers
Or maybe it's Tsunako's birthday.
Jaxson Parker
Her birthday already happened
Lincoln Perez
if so then we should some point send a birthday card
Liam Scott
Or maybe we should do what /a/ did to the watamote artist and send pictures of dicks
Kayden Scott
No. Just no.
That is a good idea. It won't be as big as other cards being made (Iwata's ones being a good example), yet it's the thought that counts. And I'm sure Tsunako won't expect at all to receive a birthday card from anonymous people all over the world.
Noah Foster
Good taste. I also still can't believe it's the same voice actor as normal Nep.

Noah Carter
Good to know that Swizterland has good tastes. Just hope the rest of Europe doesn't try to force them to hate the Neps due to "muh sexualization of women."
Brayden Hughes
When did that happen?
Nicholas Richardson
It's an in-game screenshot though, not a real truck. Now that real Nep car that was posted a while back, that was awesome
Xavier Barnes
What?
Colton Collins
Someone tried to hurt our goddess?
Adrian Sanders
Ah, just actually expanded the image. Totally not a real truck. That makes me much more sad than it should have.
Gavin Campbell
Why do they even bother with cons anymore? (At least ones in America)
They're just asking for trouble going there. (Then again, could be part of a contract deal where you have to see people who may or may not like your guts in various places)
I know its a virtual truck but
I don't see this ever happening.
Sebastian Wright
they had an event back when the anime wasabout to air, they would show the first episode during it but either part of the event or the entire thing was cancelled because of a idolshit-loving level of a fan(and by that I mean "muh pure voice actress can not marry anyone!)
Alexander Hernandez
You talking about that one dude who attacked Tanaka because he was "betrayed" or something?
Sebastian Barnes
Torture does not feel just enjoys
Julian Thompson
Yeah it got cut short because he got up near her with a crowbar. Fucking Gordon Freeman. That's why we're never getting a PC rep in Neps.
Dominic Ramirez
Holy fuck, I did not know this. Honestly I was happy Rie finally got someone to love her. Her adult voice still melts me, of course.
Samuel White
Valvedrones really do ruin everything.
Wyatt Clark
Do you mean Freeman, or that she married around that time, or something else?
Juan Reed
fun fact(take it with a grain of salt because I never saw any actual sorce for this): the man she's married to now was Histy's VA husband Really puts the Neptune-Histoirie relationship at whole another level
Michael Adams
This might be the reason we may never get an actual Nep dating simulator with a budget. Stupid Japanese idol fanaticism. Pure girls deserve love, too!
Kayden Lewis
In the case of actual idols I might even understand this, but VAs seem to be an entirely different thing.
Jeremiah Clark
Her husband, the seiyuu.
Haha, damn.
Benjamin White
In Japan, there's almost no difference between idols and seiyuu. Seiyuu are treated much differently than voice actors/actresses in the West. So much so that it's hard to say that they are the same profession.
Was it a knife? I remember early reports saying a crowbar, guess that was bull.
Joshua Sanchez
...
Chase Edwards
...
John Wilson
Seems so.
Beats me, some reports I saw are saying it was a knife, others "blunt object" or crowbar.
William Morales
I have to wonder how the relationships behind the scenes are with VAs.
Why do they care so much about whether the VAs are married or not? I'm pretty sure being an otaku in Japan lowers your chance of even dating one absolutely to 0
Evan Nelson
Yeah I looked into it and there were a lot of reports at the time saying crowbar. I have no idea which one is actually right.
Jordan Jenkins
Because certain VAs are marketed as idols too, for example, HanaKana.
And I shouldn't have how the idol industry works and on what it thrives on, right?
They know that. That's the joke. That's why idols are so successful. They are marketed in such a way that the average otaku obsessed with them can pretend they are in a sort-of relationship with the idol in itself. I'd be mad too if the illusion I'm shelling so much for becomes broken.
Well, yeah. But guess what? You got into the idol industry and signed a bunch of papers and one of them surely said don't open your legs to anyone and if you do do it with the utmost secrecy because otherwise everything is ruined.
They knew what they were getting into, if they can't play by the rules they signed themselves for then why the fuck become an idol in first place?
It's a fucked up industry for sure but there's logic and a order behind it nonetheless.
Brody Ortiz
Otaku usually have meltdowns about this. When Aya Hirano said she likes sleeping with men a lot of people went apeshit. It was hilarious. Most of the time it just means destroying merchandise and breaking discs, though, not attempted assaults.
Brandon Jenkins
Pretty much this.
Theres been manga authors who tried to pull a bait and switch on some of their stories only to get reminded who pays their company bills via otakus burning their stuff and voicing their displeasure.
Well otakus do give them lots of money, it would be unwise of them to alienate the only people willing to walk past boundaries the normal joe wouldn't dare cross or would even care about.
Dylan Bailey
And this is why I despise idol industry a loathe people who fall for shit like idolmaster or love live or whatever is the new idolshit people are into these days, it makes the whole thing look like fucking cotton candy
Luis Fisher
I wouldn't say Idolmaster or Love Live are bad games in and of themselves since I like rhythm games, but the whole thousands of dollars of DLC for each Idolmaster release is the stupidest thing ever and the fans that actually buy that shit are pretty cancerous. At least you don't have to spend money on Love Live but again the cancerous trash that worship the series spend hundreds of dollars on it regularly.
Kevin Bell
You can't expect them to be prisoners of their image their whole life, especially seiyuu. If some nut decides to burn his figure collection, that's his loss.
Nolan Davis
Sure, rhythm games bring no harm, but I'm certain you can make them without having to promote a cancerous industry that fucks up real people in japan and pollutes every anime season with at least 1 shit show about idols that gets a free pass "muh idols are so cute"
William Gutierrez
Well, at least there is social pressure in females to not turn into sluts. The people who chimp out might be idiots, but they are incredibly useful idiots for the whole of society.
Fam, I'm sure that according to many people we are on their level, and Neptunia games are all shit hat only sell because autists like the girls.
Colton Sullivan
Welcome to entertainment business, they knew what was gonna happen once the contract was signed
Yeah instead of sending a better "Fuck you" to trolling cunts or publishers who think they can pull a fast one on them, they should just lay down and eat shit like good goys
Jacob Ward
That just seems like their loss, when they destroyed merchandise they paid for. Have they never heard of reselling things?
That's pretty messed up. Neps VA was the one who got married, right? She still seems popular in spite of that though.
Adrian Peterson
Or they could, you know, boycott it. I don't see how going crazy and/or bringing a knife to a fan meetup is justified. On the other hand, if they just want to destroy their possessions, that's their business.
Personally, I find watching Japs post their destroyed collections on twitter amusing. Last case I remember was when some idol was rumoured to have starred in a JAV.
Dylan Diaz
Plenty of seiyuu get married and absolutely nothing bad happens, in fact, they even get congratulatedand given good wishes. One relatively recent example of this is Chiwa Saito. The nutsos only go for the ones who also promote themselves and idols and the image of pureness and the such.
Also, this doesn't happen only with male otakus. The females are crazies too but that's no surprise to anyone.
It's just about being upfront and honest with your fans. There's a difference between keeping your private life and work separate with what happens on these occasions. If they are in the entertainment industry then they have to realize there's some stuff they should do and not do and standards to held themselves to because otherwise their careers will be affected, specially considering their careers put them on the public eye. Just like with any other fucking job where you can be fired for having the "wrong" opinion or doing something "bad".
Rie never promoted herself nor was advertised as an idol, just a singer and VA.
Jackson Reyes
Burning their merchandise isn't boycotting?
Never said bringing a knife to a meetup was OK.
Dylan Lee
Boycotting would be not buying anything related to the subject in question. Burning merchandise already bought isn't boycotting since money has already been spent, hence being mutually exclusive with boycott.
Robert Adams
But by burning merchandise, they send a message to the publisher that they don't want to buy whatever future products they make anymore as form of protest because they destroyed what they already had.
I'd rather otakus burn shit than go to a random manga or merchandise shop/cafe and vandalize certain items
Daniel Moore
They sadly aren't that stupid.
James James
Remember, societies work because people play roles. I think Japanese society seems to be so fucked up, because the roles people have to play are stricter, and they have to give in more than in most other societies. That is understandable, Japan is a mountainous country, and they had rather big cities for most of their history. You can't deal with so many people on an individual basis, so everybody was expected to play their role. Just think of the whole senpai thing.
Destroying merchandise is a lot more noticeable than just boycotting things. So it became a sort of a ritual, and I think by now it's expected from otakus, it's part of their role. Think of mass hysteria, when people do things they otherwise wouldn't do. It seems to be the same thing.
Gavin Russell
When Kana Asumi got married it also caused some minor shitstorm, if I remember. Still, the Aya Hirano drama was the best.
No, you're just losing property you could have resold or something. It does not hurt the publisher. Boycotting is not buying anything again.
As far as I know the general society considers otaku a waste of space, I'm not sure if anyone cares what they do. But yeah, it's definitely noticeable, haha.
Eli Hill
Other otakus do care. Most people couldn't even understand what is tripfagging, much less the problems with it. Yet we do shit on those people, and we understand why, so it seems to be perfectly logical and even necessary for us.
Jack Scott
ha ha ha. Nagi Crazy Shrine Maidens and Sacred Blacksmith. Good times, good times.
Hell, I recall the massive shitstorm with Aya Hirano being disowned because she gave it up to everyone but the drummer in her band. And that one idol getting caught with a guy so they shaved her head.
Japan never fails to impress, I'll say that much. More hilarious is that the western fandoms can give them a run for their money. Just throw a stone in the direction of Steven Universe or Supernatural and see what ripples. It's the most-pathetic image of humanity you can conceive.
Jordan Miller
This part is actively false. You state it on the presumption that most of these kids (they are kids when they sign on) look before they leap. They do not. Some adjust to their new expectations, others don't. Simple as that.
This is actually a facet of consumer relations that's both worth of envy and an extreme amount of caution. I've seldom heard businesses turning up their noses to such open displays of dilike in Japan or telling fans to dealwithit.jpg. At the same time, try to consider the level of devotion between customer and company that results in such an action. That's some shit on the level of a jaded lover. A lot of those guys felt genuinely betrayed by the manager house, the company, or, in particular, the idol.
That's amazing and terrifying.
Kayden Rodriguez
That's very different because these people actively try to hurt other people, not even because something went wrong with their series or someone they admire but because you "disagreed" with them or did something "bad" in the eyes of the fandom.
In fact, the most scary things about western fandoms is how they become apologist for ANYTHING does and if you disagree then you better get ready to get doxxed and then have everyone told you are a rapist, drug addict, get hateful mails on your house, workplace, parent's house, etc.
Just look at this stuff, for one simple drawing that they "disagreed" with. It's utter madness. Burning figures is sane in comparison to this.

The Neptunia game series is about the personifications of the game industry, and its various consoles, Neptune / Planeptune (Sega), Noire / Lastation (Sony), Blanc / Lowee (Nintendo), Vert / Leanbox (Microsoft).
It's a JRPG. Niche game. You may or may not have fun.
Luke Wood
It has mediocre gameplay, but you'll probably love it if you like cute girls doing cute things and battling monsters.

Matthew Young
The blonde goes so well with the purple in that image
Also here's a cleaner version.
Noah Lopez
Cute anime grills who represent consoles and video game companies get into retarded situations that they have to resolve largely by beating the shit out of largely inoffensive woodland creatures and robots. Most of the time they get into pointless arguments with each other or suffer wardrobe malfunctions.
Gameplay is JRPG style, which has improved from (over the last 5 years) from bad to fairly solid as of the most recent game. Also there are several side-games in different genres but those have only started getting good in the last year or two.
Jacob Lewis
Who's the main character now shorty?

Don't get it twisted, pal. She's still the Protagonist of Protagonists

The new sonic game announcement stream is going in flame in the most spectacular way possible and I believe this is somehow neptune's fault. I also want an excuse to post more nep

If there was ever a time for that K-sha with a gun image, now would be it.

what went wrong?

Christopher Fisher
Going wrong.
REALLY REALLY WRONG
Jackson Thomas
PULL THE TRIGGER KSHA
Daniel Hughes
This fucking streamā¦
Carson Martinez
I know I only have myself to blame for this, but whose fucking idea was it to make battles with tough enemies inescapable? Playing RB2.
Matthew Flores
Which tough enemies you talking about? Bosses?
Gabriel Kelly
Ran into something called a Fenrisulfr. Just started the game.
Ian Garcia
If its a random Tough you can run away from those, but your stats might be too low for that to happen if you just started.
Camden Sanchez
Thanks
Daniel Butler
The option was faded out. Also, there's a bit of slowdown whenever I break an enemy's guard. That never happened in RB1. How graphically demanding is RB2 and beyond?
William Bailey
That's a known issue with RB2, the solution involves using the tools that the retranslation used to replace the guard break animation with the one from RB1.
Landon Torres
RB2 is slightly more demanding, it's probably the most sloppily coded of the PC games.
RB3 is about the same as RB1, but it can hit 120FPS if you have the horsepower for that.
VII is a bit higher than the RB games, but not too much more.
Jeremiah Ward
I take it that fix isn't separate from the retranslation? I rather use that on my second playthrough just to see how bad the vanilla lines actually are.
I don't think I can even see the difference between 120FPS and 60FPS, so that won't matter. Also, I doubt my GPU can pull that off (GTX 950).
Wyatt Parker
RB2 fix: take the RB1 guard break graphics and install that into your Neptools directory.
And 120 FPS is very noticeable, going up from 60. Like butter.
Charles Baker
Wait, getting the modding tools I can do. I'm supposed to dig around the system files and hope I find the right graphic folders? I think I'll do that later.
Michael Lopez
Well that was a shit show.
Angel Phillips
What do the numbers mean?
Chase Green
Scout bonuses
Noah Nelson
How much pudding she can eat per second
Parker Flores
I meant the ones on her hoodie, sorry.
I'd believe it.
Wyatt Rivera
And what does the number 925 on her hoodie means? Maybe one of these events? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/925
Sebastian Allen
Now that I wouldn't know. IF's ATM PIN for their bank account?
Lucas Davis
Does anybody know what the Japs speculate about that countdown?
Dominic Brooks
Still my favourite cutscene from VII so far.

In order to win against a neps tease you have to empty your mind, no lewd toughts/fapping for at least a week, then you'll be able to withstand the temptation
Brandon James
Shouldn't be too hard for me.
Although, everyone would see the bulge in my pants.
Aaron Jones
Hitler, in that case the average non would just lose his mind, and tease back PH with his dick so hard, she might feel like if it was rape.
Adrian Barnes
Can CPUs speak different languages by changing the language settings?
Jordan Ross
But that's impossible!
Andrew Stewart
neptual harassment uhoh. thats bad workplace conduct, she could get in trouble
Ryder Powell

Joshua Baker
DOES NEP COME WITH PIRATE LANGUAGE?
Chase Hill
In order to win against a neckbeard's resistance you have to empty his balls, lewd thoughts/fapping constantly for at least a week, then you'll be able to prevent him from having powers.
Brayden Kelly
...
Jordan Johnson
She will when we visit the Pirate Dimension.
Noah Cooper
I feel like this would make it a whole lot worse instead.
Kevin Gutierrez
plot a course to adventure
Michael Price
Wouldn't that just be Suikoden IV? All they'd do is change the characters and storyline to fit a somehow flooded Gamindustri and make it more of a parody than a serious game.
Matthew Gray
I'd plunder their booty, if you know what I mean.
Leo Ramirez
In this adventure, they're the pirates. They'd be plundering yours.
Julian Thomas
I wouldn't know, haven't played that game. Should I?
Brandon Brooks
Suikoden is considered a little gem of the JRPG genre. Especially the first and second ones. I started with the fourth and then did the first two. Generally speaking, the fourth is considered the worst game in the series, but I thought it was a pretty good JRPG. But the first and second are excellent. Just a bit dated.
Say, does anyone happen to know where I could download Tsunako's artbook?
Ayden Reed
Who's this?
Aiden Cruz
Faust, from trillion.
Carter Ross
apparently Faust from Trillion
Justin Harris
Sounds good, I'll try emulating it later then.
Lincoln Cook
It doesn't matter who she is. What matters is her plan.
Hunter Adams
Faust
Nolan Morris
Anytime now for Date a Live

It better happen.

Please take care of me, Marvy.
Lincoln Cruz
which nep do I fap to tonight?
Tyler Hernandez
Rolling
Ryder Smith
Noire it is then
Joseph Ward
So is this a "Going to the Onsen with Noire" situation image?
Andrew Hall
For a moment I thought it said "which nep faps at night?"
and now I'm hard and curious about that
Luke Russell
yes
Elijah Bell
Guess that's a question someone can ask when the other thread killers are dropped.
Adrian Kelly
Is it bad that I'd let them?
Gavin Ward
foop
Luke Flores
What the fuck user
Grayson Turner
Disgusting.
Grayson Green
I-is that nep futa art?
Parker Mitchell
No, there's nothing you want to see behind those spoilers. Don't open them.
Ryder Rodriguez
Yes, there's plenty more where that came from~
Open them faggot
Jeremiah Edwards
I opened them. I feel tainted. Why do people take such nice girls and turn them into men?
Ryder Flores
Why young P-ko though?
Ethan Young
Males have penises and no vaginas. Futas are hermaphrodites. Though I'm pretty sure in this case, they'd identify as women, if anyone actually cares about what someone identifies as opposed to what they are biologically.
Josiah Peterson
What futa are is HERESY and drawing neps as futa is High Treason
Luis Stewart
You could just not look at it or something.
Oliver Howard
>Not patting her head and promising she can come back for "better things" Now I know you're gay
Vast difference between futas and traps anons They can have babies
So it's treason then
Joshua Cook
I want closet fags OUT
Jose Scott
Whatever their reasons, tainting the Neps like that is not appreciated.
Ian Powell
No, I'm just not a fucking spaz over shit like this.
Colton Sullivan
Pederasty. Some people are so sexually deranged that they feel repulsed by the idea of grown women, choosing instead to substitute them with young boys.
Josiah Torres
Ah yes, they are that, too. I was just going based on the biological classification. Either way, it's horribly disgusting.
Oliver Ramirez
I wonder if YH's breasts produce milkā¦I want to find out
Blake Martinez
disgusting, i hope your life gets English dubs
Wyatt Stewart
Here we go, for Gear.
Michael Lewis
Let's go
Dominic Lewis
Rolling for Neptune as usual
Lucas Wright

Justin Evans
Good shit!
My ID changed again for some reason
Robert Cook
ID is reset when your IP changes. It tends to happen when your router is turned off and back on, or if you're in the UK with dynamic IPs
Brody Perry
Yeah, I had to reset my router earlier. But now my internet connection is a lot better

Matthew Peterson
neptune youre the god of the seas, so lets go on a pirate adventure
Zachary Wilson
Do any of you masturbates in the middle of the night
It's forā¦ scientific reasons
Chase Foster
Neptune, can I touch your hairpins?
David Martinez
Nepgear, will you rock my socks?
Oh damn, that's a lot of affirmations. Considering the subject matter, the hesitant answers are all probably them not wanting to admit it. And Noire's "no" is just her being tsundere.
Evan Campbell
Roommates is fine, too. I'll go get some groceries so we can make dinner together.
Jace Wright
Hey Neptune, do you like sex?
Juan Lewis
She's so pure and modest.
Wyatt Martin
Nepgear and Uni, let's play some co-op games together.
Hunter Foster
Is Plutia better than Iris?
Jayden James
They're both the exact same. They each only have one joke.
Blake Martinez
Yes but muh naps are better than muh raeps
Brayden Hughes
That is completely up to your own taste And personally, I prefer the calm motherly Iris near the end of the anime
Anthony Hernandez
Disregarding that they are the same person, what metric are you comparing them with? If you're not into getting injured or traumatized, Plutia might be better for you.
Alexander Bell
Neptune let's have pudding together
Ryan Price
Uni, want to go to the range?
Ethan Martin
...
Cameron Allen
Well, that's a bit better than most of the answers she's given to that question recently.
Owen Garcia
if you suffer from migraine headaches plutia has something for you
Levi Powell
Truly a sign of good things to come today
Samuel Perez
>I do >I've been on meds for sleep problems and sun induced head ache problems >Neither worked and by the time they said fuck it they had me oding on the things Sounds like my speed, looks like I chose wisely
Ethan Allen
which game's ending is this?
Luke Hill
Not sure. Probably RB2.
Xavier Miller
Try again.
Matthew Martinez
Victory's ending.
Jose Miller
thanks. well another nep game I'll probably never play (but as I hear, rb3 is pretty much the same, except some small differences like thisā¦)
Asher Phillips
According to what I've heard, you're a lot better off playing RB3 instead of Victory.
Xavier Howard
