The value story

May 2023 is where it bottomed out, at $4.99. Its cuts run 60 percent off as a rule. There have been 65 in the 10 years tracked, about 7 weeks apart.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 1 percent on value. It is pricier than 89 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Grimm's Hollow (free, scores 93) beats it on value, while it beats Ikenfell ($19.99, scores 74).

The math says it holds its tier up to $35.68, and you are being asked for $19.99.

Steam's global achievement data puts about 15 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 35.3-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. 2 of the 357 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 84 percent of the 234 reviews written there were positive, against 94 percent overall, and those are 9 percent of everything written about it.

The main story runs 35.3 hours. Doing everything runs 77, 2.2 times as long.

What players say

The gameplay is fun, a lot of the characters get time to shine, it arguably has the most significant differences compared to most of the mainline games, it has a good three part story, and it has some cool spectacle. Some stuff that holds it back in my opinion is that I never felt like I had control over who...

MEGADIMENSION NEPTUNIA VII Megadimension Neptunia VII feels like a natural continuation after Re;Birth 3... but with a serious vibe shift. Every Neptunia game has its own personality, and this is the moment the series decides to get moody. More atmospheric, more dramatic, distinctly its own thing compared to everything that came before. Structurally, the game splits into three main parts, each with its own distinct...

First playthrough feels like the worst out of all the Neptunia games. Very easy to get stuck in a rut with a single character and a bunch of mandatory battles leading to a painfully slow grind to beat the next boss. Better make use of all 50 saves to have a checkpoint before every conversation.
