    I've noticed a lot of recent anime games having this trend, where they have just enough fanservice to be off-putting to those don't want that, but not enough to satisfy those who do. It just ends up being the worst of both worlds.

      It's truly a case about Sony being prude for this. The company behind Senran Kagura had complained in the past that a game they were making wasn't being accepted to be published on PS no matter how much they censored the fan service that was added, resulting in them having to almost redo their game entirely.

      not like you can't have a feature to turn on nudity for the shredded clothes at this point, but, there's severe lack in the storytelling department as well in general and I been more thirsty for those than fanservice. I had a blast playing shinovi versus, but the beach sequel...it bugged me quite a bit how slow movement was in comparison.

      Wish they'd port Senran Kagura Burst Renewal to switch. Having a remake of the 1st 3DS game with VITA/PS4 gameplay on switch would be perfect!
      Plus this had my favourite customisation options compared to shinovi or estival, unless they added extra characters to those games like Yuyaki from Peachbeach splash then i'd be ok with that ported instead.

    Did I want it? Well, there were some detractors that kept me from purchasing.
    1. Only PS. This alone was a deal-breaker, as I don't approve of Sony's censorship.
    2. Rated T for Teen. Yes, a lot of the fan-service is obviously toned down for this collaboration. I just noticed that SK was made to accommodate Neptunia and not the other way around. So they had to compromise some to make this happen. Personally, I don't think this cross was really that good of an idea for this very reason. Cross-overs are only good when the worlds are two sides of the same coin, otherwise you lose something. Think Ghost Recon x Rainbow.
    3. Not enough SK girls. I believe there are only 4, and not even Ikaruga (nevermind all the other characters I like)..

Other straight up hentai visual novels, the switch library has way more lenient fan service than the PS4 library. Just look at games like 20 ladies, waifu discovered, inside her (bedroom). All low budget ecchi games with nudity that are completely censored or outright not available on PS4. Nintendo does not have as strict censorship as Sony so if anything getting a game on switch is better than PS4. Of course steam is the best way to go, but PS4 is the worst console to buy products for now which is a shame that it's fallen so far from grace

    I sort of can guess what happened with the toned down fanservicey stuff. It has something to do with Sony moving their Playstation HQ to Calli and their policies. There was a video back when where it explained that Japanese devs that wanted to implement the fansevicey stuff had to go through a lot of hurdles just to get it approved and at the end of the day, it wasn't worth it, and that is also dealing with the differences in timezones. Not to say Sony had a full ban on it, its just they are making it extremely hard to implement anything the devs wanted.
    Oh, and you can blame covid as well but that's another thing anyways.

    With Difficulty, i find it fine, i have only used Nep and Asuka, and i only have gotten to Chapter 5, yet those 2 are level 20, the recommended are level 24. all i did was do a few Requests to level up, which is normally what you would do anyway. Much better than VVV/Virtual Stars, spent hours grinding to get more powerful... which in the end before the last few bosses, i was WAY OP, one hitting everything with Nep.

    I feel sad because it's the first time a game features the HD modes more than the usual regular forms, specially since I like more purple heart way more than little Neptune so the brokem promise of this game been developed by the gods of fan service from tamsoft, and we are denied of the busty goddess goodies Is just soul breaking.. I was waiting for the steam version, but virtual stars gave me a bad taste, maybe I should just play again burst renewal instead and wait until its heavily discounted on a sale
    Also one of the things I loved from the Nep games was how lively those live2 animations were done, specially for a game that delivers the story on tex boxes was really engaging, but the quality of the animation and writing has been declining and virtual stars was as fun as looking at paint slowly drying on a wall

 my only background about these games are NepV2 and berseria (not that similar) I really loved the Nep humor, 4 wall and stuff like that. About beat’em up I know just DMC. About rpg just final fantasy 5 til ff10.

    They never made it fan service because of Sony's censorship rule that has been in effect since I believe 2017? or 2016 I believe the reason why older senran kagura was allowed even inside the Sony policy as you say was a technicality. There's no reason why Neptunia couldn't have had armor break when their previous game had way more lewd clothing damage Neptunia 2 but that was way before the new policy. Don't forget Neptunia RPG was censored on Playstation and not on the other platforms

    Weird, I've seen other reviews and what they said was, "it played more like the Neptunia action games" as it wasn't as polished like SK Estival Versus feeling a bit like a downgrade if you come expecting a Senran Kagura approach to action. Maybe they say that because they say this was supposed to be a standalone Neptunia game but sometime they decided to make it a crossover, but IDK I still feel I'm not that interested in this game, becuase after Estival Versus I'm really waiting a real advance in the series and with Senrak Kagura 7 going the ways of Half-Life 3 o GTA VI, I think I'll just stick to the old games for now.

    Game is quite fun tho not as much so as either of the series main line games but that was to be expected. For anyone wanting to know, throwing weapons are broken and can easily take down everyone minus one part of Yomi Training (since it's restricted) with the proper build. I was expecting at least transformation scenes but apparently not even that is good for Sony now, I feel like Sony is upping their policy since even in game they mention that they cannot have more fanservicy elements in one of the scenes with Neptune since they'd get in trouble. Really hope they just go flat PC moving forward if that's the case since they may be having issues, or maybe it might just be one of the budget restrictions for this game specifically. I guess we'll see what is allowed after we see the new Nep Sisters game come out next year. If it is like the next game post Megadimension then we can at least be happy about that. I just don't want this games fanserivce level to be the new norm. Also curious on if we'll get a new Senran Kagura title since I just finished Burst Renewal and Shinovi Versus and am working on Estival Versus, very fun.

      I agree with you, Biogulius Dio. I was a huge fan of the Neptunia series, but some of the releases lately have been incredibly disappointing and shallow. I was absolutely bored with Cyberdimension, Blanc + Neptune vs. Zombies, and Neptunia Shooter. I also hated a lot of the gameplay changes that VIIR made to VII, especially since VII is my favorite in the entire franchise. I own Neptune Vs. Sega Hard Girls, but I’m hesitant to even play it because it might just be a huge waste of my valuable time. On the positive side, I thoroughly enjoyed Super Neptunia RPG, but that game was made by a different set of developers. Plus, it seems like the Neptunia series is more interested in making spin-offs and remakes of older games at this point. I rolled my eyes so hard when I saw they remade Re;Birth 1. The only reason I’m even considering buying this crossover game is because I’m a huge fan of Senran Kagura, and I want Kenichiro Takaki to know that his series has an American fan base. Even then, I’m sure that the Neptunia producers found a way to suck the life out of such an otherwise potent crossover.
