Added Randomly Drops

Added DiffLines:

* RandomlyDrops: It's bad enough that well over half the Quests run off of this, but this game manages to take it [[UpToEleven Up To Eleven]] with some Quests requiring drops from monsters that don't even begin to spawn until you've gotten a specific [[RandomlyDrops Randomly Drops]] result from Scouting the dungeon. [[GuideDangIt Good luck figuring out which dungeons to Scout for which monsters...]]
** [[FromBadToWorse It Gets Worse:]] And when you DO finally get the desired Scouting result, you will probably find that the target monster is WAY too powerful for you to beat at your current level... still want to go for that perfect 40 score in the end of chapter evaluation?

The latter timeskip allows for Iffy and Compa to age to adulthood and the new nation of Eden to become prosperous.]]

** DiscontinuityNod: When she finds out that Noire, who she landed on, has no idea who Neptune is, Neptune assumes that either she was the one to get amnesia or is just faking it. She tells Noire to not bother trying to force the memories and to trust her on the matter since she was a former amnesiac herself.

* CassandraTruth: In the first two chapters you can talk with some minor characters who had appeared in the Gamindustri Graveyard in mk2, Deco, 1st-gen Compa, and Furapura, they express disbelief in being told that they're going to die and to be careful. At the start of Chapter 3, when speaking with Furapura she mentions that Deco has died and 1st-gen Compa has left on a trip.

* ShoutOut: During one of the Nepstation Segments, the game mentions "A raging treat, Blanc manju". This is quite obviously a reference to the "Rage Manju" (better known as the RageCandyBar in localizations) from Pokemon Gold and Silver and their remakes. The fact that Blanc is the CPU for the SNES (i.e. Nintendo) and Lowee just looks exactly like Ecruteak City from the remakes makes this even more obvious.

The third game in the {{Neptunia}} VideoGame/{{Neptunia}} series, {{JRPG}}s featuring [[MoeAnthropomorphism moe anthropomorphisms]] of the gaming industry in a humorous take on the ConsoleWars.
ConsoleWars, as well as the first sequel in the series, due to the previous game being a ContinuityReboot.

Taking place sometime after the second game, Neptune is kicking back and enjoying the peace from Arfoire's defeat when she finds herself sucked into a portal and awakens in an alternate dimension. This world is a version of Gamindustri set in a time similar to the 1980's, under siege by a group of enemies known as the Seven Sages. Teaming up with this world's [=CPUs=], Neptune must figure out a way to get home and defeat these new enemies.
