The weekend is for realizing how short February is at the last moment. It’s so short. We should fix that. Also, it’s about playing an anime game that should be my jam but is currently confusing the hell out of me.

Yeah, I am cheating this weekend and playing Neptunia Virtual Stars from Idea Factory, a game that’s not out for Steam and PS4 in North America until next week. The latest in the tongue-in-cheek Hyperdimension Neptunia series, it follows the four console goddesses as they attempt to save the planet Emote, located in Virtualand, from content destroyers. There are third-person shooter battles, melee battles, rhythm battles, and cameos from real-life Vtubers. It’s a whole thing.

This is the first game in the series without an English dub, which is throwing me off a little. Also, it is batshit, which is a little disorienting. Hopefully, I’ll sort it all out in time to tell you about it early next week.

Or I could give up and just copy whatever it is you folks are playing this weekend. Tell us, dammit!
