The Switch is becoming the perhaps not so humble home to second, third, and even sixth releases of ports. Honest I can say it couldn't happen to a more convenient system - though it does emphasize the opportunistic nature of game development and marketing.

The better for us, in fact.

Look, the only time I'm not wrong is when I'm right, so...

Jason, this is an excellent 'long' review. I don't often make it through long reviews, so for me, that says a lot. And I'm not just saying that because I essentially co-wrote this review. Good use of my unintentional soft ball, by the way. I have one suggestion to make:

of higher quality than anything in the first three Hyperdimension Neptunia games that preceded it, in my opinion

The 'opinion' bit feels unnecessarily wimpy.

Anyway, it's a great review when it's longish and about RPGs and I still get through it, and have managed to be educated and entertained.

I don't have to prove I'm refined - that's what makes me refined!

Thanks for reading, both of you. And Masters, that's a good call on the "in my opinion" bit, so I've gone ahead and removed that since it doesn't really need to be said. Obviously, the whole dang review is my opinion!

Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world2

Glad you finally played this! What's the framerate on Switch?

I can't tell the difference between 30FPS and 60FPS unless I'm playing games side by side, so I'm afraid I can't answer that particular question for you. It's a turn-based RPG, though, so it's not like there's any reason frame rate would actually impact the gameplay, and everything seemed stable at whatever FPS was in place. I'm going to go ahead and guess a stable 30FPS?

Still don't know what "F" means?

I don't know as well but I do know your review of Fairy Fencer F: Advent Dark Force on the Switch was "F".

Yes, FANTASTIC!

I'm actually glad that this JRPG finally made it to the Nintendo Switch.

I believe that this game is one the best to grace from the collabs of Compile Heart, Idea Factory, and Ghostlight.

I'm glad to see the game on Switch, too. It's starting to get a little bit easier to take ports of great games for granted, since the platform has been receiving so many of them lately. It seems like every week, there are another 10 or 20 awesome ports to welcome. But games like Fairy Fencer F fall squarely in the "type of games I most want to see" category. Even though I didn't think it was absolutely amazing, I had a generally good time and I would like to see some of Idea Factory's other stuff come next. Thanks for reading!
