Yeah, why bother making a custom combo system when you can just button mash?

The best part is having to actually experience each and every attack animation, thousands upon thousands of times. Such depth!

Postmodernism was a mistake.
I can understand that. So let me say more stuff.
Fun can be subjective, but I can understand people not enjoying their games. They tend to stack too many mechanics that doesn't really improve the games, just makes it complicated (Doesn't help that they do very lackluster tutorials).
Of course, I did enjoy some of the titles I've played from them (Neptunia mk2, Victory and Agarest 2), but eventually I just got tired of them. Tried re;birth 1 on Steam and I just got tired of it after a while (but maybe it's the re-used assets from the other games). Maybe I'll give them a shot some other time.
Well, you do have the option of skipping the attack animations to speed up the combat if you want, at least. I do that myself after a while, usually.

Can visual novels be fun?
Yep.

When you have to ask if it's too soon, it probably is.
Have you even played any of their newer games, like the Neptunia Rebirth games?

Awesome, I guess characters, interactions, the world, etc. can be things that make a game fun.
Literally the only reason to play IF titles. God forbid you derive any actual joy from the gameplay, that would be too much to ask for.
No, my impression from them comes from Neptunia and Mk 2 and watching someone else play one of their newer games. So maybe I have no idea what I'm talking about and they've done some real improvement.
I also haven't read Ctrl+Alt+Del in the last half decade.

I did derive some enjoyment from the more VN aspects, and Neptunia U as a whole (the latter not having a low framerate helped quite a bit)

She is an adult and ruler of an entire nation ,hell even her little sister is 18 years old.
So, you acuse her as an underage for having a young look? Stop being so ignorant because there are plenty of real Life girls that looks very young.
Actually lots of people here had a lot of fun with their games and they exist for that reason so a game that gave fun its a good game, speak for yourself and blame your taste.
Those games are not for everyone and they doesn't have to, stop pretending that they are "trash " before playing them, stop having a narrow view and try to be a little more empathic. And this comes from a very catholic person.
She's actually a 1000 year old dragon.
They crossed the cute line, they're too cute to live.
I mean lets check out some stunning examples below!

Scratchin my head here. What's wrong with these again?
As I said, they've improved somewhat. It just took them a really long time to figure things out.
I have nothing against excessive fanservice, moe, etc. And turn-based Japanese RPGs are my favorite kinds of games. But the few IF games I've played I wasn't into...
...the ones I've played featured a ton of grinding, small and uninteresting environments, awkward and convoluted systems. I do like my RPGs to have a bit more budget and more gameplay polish, though that's a lot to ask for this day and age with the market being what it is... to each their own though I guess. I don't think of them as "The Devil of RPG Makers" or anything. That level of vitriol is saved for Capcom and BOF6

Now that I can agree with. Some satanic involvement there would explain a lot.That level of vitriol is saved for Capcom and BOF6
well... here it goes, as I said, nobody even gets to the good part and only because game is super cheap, but it is a good game nevertheless.
