Gamindustri Chronicles: A Neptunia Retrospective

Watch me (or listen) ramble on about a series I've come to love like my 3rd cat for like 25 minutes~

The Neptunia series, also known as Hyperdimension Neptunia, is a Japanese video game franchise that blends role-playing game (RPG) elements with a unique premise centered around the personification of video game consoles. Developed by Compile Heart and published by Idea Factory, the series is set in the fictional world of Gamindustri, where four goddesses—representing different gaming consoles—battle for supremacy. The main protagonist, Neptune, symbolizing Sega Neptune, navigates through various dimensions and faces a plethora of gaming-related challenges and enemies. The games often incorporate humor, parodying gaming industry trends, and feature a distinctive art style. With multiple installments, spin-offs, and anime adaptations, the Neptunia series has gained a dedicated fanbase for its blend of RPG mechanics, humor, and unique take on the world of gaming.
