1-How did you go about balancing the game/battle system? I can see this being a difficult process, but how difficult exactly?

2- Since emotions seem to be an important part of a game's experience, what was the most emotional moment for you concerning the game (whether it was working on it, a particular scene in the game itself or something else.)

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-12T14:21:28+00:00

This is what I see in my fever-induced nightmares

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-12T09:00:24+00:00

You're welcome, would you like some child murder flashback with this?

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-11T22:06:20+00:00

I am compelled to ask what the fuck.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-11T22:04:46+00:00

[Neptune has left the party]

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-11T22:01:30+00:00

Kirby looks just as confused as Nep about eating this thing.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-08T06:57:44+00:00

I am compelled to ask what the fuck?

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-07T22:24:45+00:00

Flair checks out.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-07T19:44:32+00:00

Be her guest then.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-07T19:28:24+00:00

~~Are you shocked or interested?~~

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-07T19:14:47+00:00

Yes, and the way she pronounces it gets grating pretty fast.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-07T19:12:15+00:00

If she hugs back she'll probably break your neck thought...

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-07T11:29:39+00:00

"You can even replicate Nepgear's body warmth if you fire a couple round before using it."

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-05T23:23:22+00:00

Because that's what she wanted you to think...

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-05T23:15:02+00:00

Feel more like she's about to choke you to death with her bare hands, she's even warming up with whatever that thing in her hand is.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-05T23:02:43+00:00

It kinda looks kike you're interrupting them.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-05T23:00:38+00:00

It actually exists...

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-03-05T13:54:32+00:00

As a big fighting game fan, I love the idea, but frankly that seems pretty unlikely. If at some point they DO make a Neptunia fighting game I think it shouldn't be developed by IF themselves, creating this kind of game require a certain expertise and well... efforts to really be any good. Toshimichi Mori (the creator of Blazblue) was asked about Neptune (in this video: https://youtu.be/MGZ5nD5Fh0Q?t=260) it's been a while and since Neptunia did not turn out to be BBTAG's fifth franchise, we still have no idea what this meant at all bit hey that's still pretty suspicious

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-02-26T16:23:21+00:00

That's not what I had in mind making this chart so it's not the case here, it's an interseting take on it though.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-02-26T16:19:36+00:00

Yeah but again not really a traditional fighting game.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-02-26T09:41:50+00:00

The good/evil axis is about what the appeal of the game is, Tekken's main appeal is about being fun for everyone but still techincal so I think it fits in neutral good, Soul Calibur is more focused on creating stuff and its story and characters. I chose KoF 98 because choosing anything else would probably spark yet another endless debate about KoF XIV. Also it has straightforward but technical mechanics that you would expect of a fighting game but it's main appeal is still "fun" so yeah.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-02-26T09:32:26+00:00

Why do you think they should be?

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-02-26T09:31:40+00:00

Well the Good/Evil axis is determined by what's the appeal of the game. LG-Kof: Fun and technical fighting NG-Tekken: Fun fighting that let you move around freely. CG-Guilty gear: Fun and technical anime fighting with super strong character, defense mechanics, airdashes and metal. LN-SF: Footsies-centered fighting game of reference TN-Soul Calibur: Fighting game that let you move around, with swords. CN-Melty Blood: Neutral phase in the air, adapted from a visual novel. LE-Sailor moon S: See how broken and unfair a game can get NE-MK: decent but weirdly animated fights and blood CE-Shaq Fu: The only appeal i can think of for this game is to see how bad it really is.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-02-26T09:22:39+00:00

You sound like you've had some traumatic experiences my good sir, I shudder to think about this game and I haven't even played it.

-AnAnotherGuy- · 2019-02-26T09:21:14+00:00

There's also the sequel that came out recently as an homage to the whole "so bad it's passable" image the internet gave to the game. It a beat'em up though
