How the FUCK did this series get so popular?
>>333567459
Because this isn't the 90s/00s and weebshit is mainstream now

people will play any kind of trash with cute girls in them
>>333567773
I can't play Bloodborne all the time damnit.
It isn't that popular.
>>333567459
I wouldn't say "popular" but it found itself a niche and stuck with it to be successful.
I think it's largely due to a lack of competition; turn-based RPGs have become somewhat uncommon. The series has also consistently been improving with each entry, which helps keep people invested.
It's popular on 4chan for obvious reasons but really they sell poorly. It's a combination of appealing to perverts who like JRPGs, though the memes really kill it and it's rather low budget.
Atelier is the better cute girl JRPG.

Latest atelier game sold worse than Neptunia, really though it's Tecmo Koei's fault for casualizing it and making it just like every other piece of shit fanservice pedophile playground.
>Still no VII release date for PC

>Launches Neptunia U
>Superior Blanc game comes out next month for Shita
IT'S

You'll get one at the end of the year.
Still surprised it sold more than 250k copies on Steam. Most JRPGs don't even sell 50k copies on Steam. I guess some people just can't resist the Neptunia girls' cuteness.

Most JRPGs also aren't given away cheaply in humble bundles.
>>333567459
It's the best JRPG this gen
because nepneps are fun and not ashamed of it
The harder /v/ shitposts about NepNep the more successful it becomes

Honestly I would take XCX reviews more serious
Vert's the best girl.

> release in Japan and no one gives a shit about a mediocre JRPG
> release in the US during the great JRPG drought of the 00's
> Literally a year between JRPG releases so anything gets bought
> Builds up a fanbase in the US comprised of desperate fools lapping up whatever is in front of them
> US fanbase supports it so the devs can try to court a Japanese fanbase
> After 3 attempts finally works by making the games not nearly as shit
There that's how.

Xenoblade X would've been better with Tsunako art.
>>333574047
>this is what buttsore trailsfags actually believe
I remember when the first one came out and I thought "Hah, novel concept but there's no way it'll be more than some niche title. Maybe it will even get a sequel if they're lucky"
They sure showed me.

Finally someone with taste

What part isn't true?
HDN1 was pretty dang awful and while the 2nd game showed promise and a lot of fixes, they didn't start getting decent combat till the third one.
