  Super Neptunia RPG negates the positives that it brings about. The fresh perspective that comes from being a classic 2D RPG with a simple battle system clashes with the unintuitive and unresponsive platforming. The presentation is beautiful, but the performance is hampered when compared to its predecessors. The ability to explore also seems nice until you realize that the streamlined side-quest system has been replaced with the more time-consuming method of visiting each quest-giver individually. Fans of the series may still enjoy it.

  Unresponsive and loaded with framerate issues, Super Neptunia RPG isn't for anyone other than hardcore Hyperdimension fans who desperately need something to play until the next mainline installment comes jiggling downline the assembly line.

  Super Neptunia RPG is what untapped potential looks like. It has the capacity to be the best Neptunia spin-off to date, but is marred by so many gameplay-related issues and bugs that they often overshadow everything that the game does successfully.  Like a lustrous Share Crystal, it’s beauty will shine through if all the dirt and grime is wiped off first. The only question is whether the polish Compile Heart and Artisan Studios applies will be enough.

  The platforming, combat and quests have all been done much better by many other games and while the game references are cute and marginally unexpected, they aren’t enough to balance the scales in Super Neptunia RPG’s favor.

  A welcome addition to the Hyper Neptunia series, Super Neptunia RPG is a charming game that never really feels overwhelming. It’s the perfect game for pick-up and play sessions, offering a relaxing JRPG experience that has just enough meat on its bones to feel challenging without ever becoming frustrating.

  A game with kind of “spark” that, for some reason or another, manages to help the good outshine the bad. But I just couldn’t find that spark with Super Neptunia RPG. Not wanting to play a game that I have to review isn’t anything new, but it legitimately made me sad that I had genuinely had to talk myself into playing this game before picking up my Switch. If you like the Neptunia series, then I don’t think that it would be a bad idea to check this game out. Just keep in mind that Neptune’s latest adventure, sadly, isn’t her greatest. And if you aren’t a fan of the series, then this probably isn’t the time to try getting into it.
