I'm a big fan of the Neptunia franchise because of the humor and the characters. I do believe the CPU Goddess are too much sexualized but still, I had fun with this RPG.

Hyperdimension Neptunia re; Birth2: sisters generation is a JRPG taking over the universe of Rebirth1 but in another dimension, the map is different and the story does not follow. We will find the makers, CPU and CPU candidates who are at the center of the game especially NepGear, the main heroine of this episode.
The game remains as the first of the name with a quick and simple gameplay to take in hand, very simplistic dungeons and a grind side that is not very dusty but nonetheless present but simple to access.
There is very little difference in gameplay level aside from adding a fourth character in combat. The addition of the mini game with Stella is nice but without more, the collection of items is far too long and we will go faster to do it even.
The scenario when has it is a little less interesting than the previous shutter. On the other hand, it is better built at the levels of the characters "non-CPU", we learn more about their personalities but its will be especially the 9 different endings that the game will stand out (or rather 3 really different endings just the final fan service that changes). There is as usual a lot of fan service that will delight those who like the genre.
If you liked the first you will not be on it by the one despite some lack of novelty, beware of the overdose if you chained the different games.
Positive points:-possibility to fight up to 4 characters previously limited to 3. Given the number of unlockable personanges it is appreciable!
-Long life if you want to do it a 100% count the 100aine of hours, beware the grind!
-The VN side is well cared for, the characters are well drawn and are not static.
-Fast and fluid gameplay, you can pass the practical combat animations after several hours of play. In addition the game is well optimized 60fps 1080p.
-Universe and funny characters see caricaturals for some. A lot of geek references to video games.
-9 different endings more or less easy to get, 5 endings and 2 endings are almost identical apart from the fan service in the last scene.
Negative points:-very easy game like its predecessor. With the right skills and equipment even the ARENE is a breeze.
-The power and guard combos not so useful as its but we have this problem in all the games of compile heart.
-Stella mini game quite simple but too long on the harvest.
-the first 4 chapters are redundant scenario level, we always find the same duo of ennemitted...-the makers do not have access to the HDD as in the previous shutter, so the CPU and CPU candidates remain overall more powerful.
-Not really a defect according to the players but it is obligatory a guide with you if you want craft to find some materials or make the different ends.
-Sometimes risky translation and some worries of lag but corrected thanks to the community.
-Grind again and again. Its can gener a lot of people but it is not necessary to finish the game apart if you aim for certain purposes. It's not too abusive it will take you 30min-1h per goal in General.
-Sound bug from time to time and graphics options almost absent.
