Chapter 0: Prologue
Far to the East, beyond the Eastern sea, the PC Continent lies mostly unknown to the people and CPUs of Gamindustri. The lands of the PC continent are split into five main nations: Cape Aspiration, Conderica, Pedissia, Azulerdam and Calipolis. They govern the lands from Corlasts to maintain the peace of the continent. Each nation is unique in their cultures and geography, as well as their protectors known as "Devs".
For many years, both Gamindustri and PC continent have coexisted without much contact between the two landmasses. Even though many events, disasters and glory occurred on Gamindustri, they were not the only ones keeping order around the globe. Within the PC Continent, Devs take the role that CPUs do in Gamindustri, blessed with great powers and potential albeit not burdened with the responsibilities of governing nations. So, this is their story, their mishaps and their journey.
AUTHOR'S' NOTES:
Panzer_Bros:
I'm still relatively new to the Neptunia franchise, starting with the anime around a year ago in mid 2017, and expanded from there. But, I can say I really do enjoy this series. Even going as far as streaming Megadimension Victory Part 2. Into the Leanbox arc of the middle section of the game, I had some DLC characters in use and had just met another: Nitroplus, from the PC continent. This is where all of this began; with one character and one question: "What is the PC continent like?" And thus it began.
Imagination went wild from there. Moreover with help from HistoricHippos (both in streams and on the storyboard), managed to create all of this you see before you.
So, enjoy what we've managed to achieve here.
HistoricHippos:
Just like Panzer_Bros above, I'm new to the Neptunia franchise. In fact, I only got into it because I started watching his Megadimension Neptunia VII streams out of boredom; since then, I started watching the anime and got more into the franchise. And just what what he said, it all began the day he encountered Nitroplus during Neptunia VII's second story arc that this all took off, with questions like "what's over there?", "who or what lives there?", etc.
We compiled whatever ideas we had of a whole new world in one big idea dump (40+ pages!), coming up with characters, nations, and other things that set the PC Continent apart from Gamindustri.
Neither me nor Panzer_Bros have much in the way of professional writing, but I hope you enjoy our very first fanfic.
Oh, and disclaimer: this story and its sequels take place during Megadimension Neptunia VII. If you haven't played it or know the game's story, things might get a little confusing. Also, expect some spoilers if you haven't reached the ending. And as for combat, it'll be based off of the Neptunia anime.
