Trying Ice Cider [Alcoholic Beverage] (for me, the non-drinker)

Trying "Ice Cider" which are related to "Hard Cider" but completely different by the fact that Ice Cider are consider as a type of "Fruit Wine" and if you found them in store they usually are sold in the Wine section unlike the Hard Cider which are sold in the Beer section. Since this is related to Hard Cider, I said to myself why not try it and see the difference.

Here are some useful link about Ice Cider:

go to cydermarket website and look under "Canada" from the imported section (I don't want hyperlink this because they change the website link and they may change it again so google it)

I like to noted that I did a little search around on the internet on how many companies make Ice Cider and the result are not many. They more rarer then companies that make Ice Wine.

Hyperdimension Neptunia ReBirth 1 - Normal and True Ending

Trophy Guide Links

If you read this (the web link) and understand it's explanation on how to get both ending then it fine but if you like me and got confuse on half the explanation on the "true ending" then read on. I didn't get/understand the last half of the explanation until I play through it and then I understand it. All I can said that they should either leave the last part out or stated it clearer.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Links Quote and Explanation:
[Normal Ending]
[Watched the normal Ending]

You’ll get this ending by default if the conditions for the True End are not met by the time you activate the event in the only dungeon in Chapter 8.

In Chapter 8, if you want to get both endings out of the way in one playthrough, you can make two saves once the first and only dungeon of the chapter is unlocked and go for one ending on the first save and the other ending on the second save, though doing so is pointless since you’ll need two full playthroughs anyway and there is no reason that you should need more than one 神界の腕輪 throughout the game.
-----------------------------------
My Comment: This one is easy to understand so no comment.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Links Quote and Explanation:
[True Ending]
[Watched the true Ending]

This ending is unlocked if you activate the event in Chapter 8’s only dungeon with each nation (the first four share bars on the world map) having at least 20% of the world shares and the Other shares (the fifth red bar on the world map) being at 0%. This can be easily done using quests and Colosseum battles to balance out the share bars.

It is recommended that you start your New Game Plus playthrough on the save that you got the True Ending on so that you have the 神界の腕輪, which is the best armor in the game.

In Chapter 8, if you want to get both endings out of the way in one playthrough, you can make two saves once the first and only dungeon of the chapter is unlocked and go for one ending on the first save and the other ending on the second save, though doing so is pointless since you’ll need two full playthroughs anyway, and there is no reason that you should need more than one 神界の腕輪 throughout the game.
-----------------------------------
My Comment: The part where I hi-lighted is the part where I got confused, since it didn't state the name of the dungeon or it is another dungeon if you do the require share amount for each countries different from the "normal ending" dungeon. That why I got confuse. In the end, it the same dungeon but you need the require step to get the "true ending" as stated above.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Conclusion:

• In Chapter 8 (final chapter), you unlock the dungeon "Road to Celestia" as the chapter events, this is where you fight the final battle and endings.
• Normal Ending: default ending, play normally
• True Ending: do the require step on the "Share" percentage as stated above and then fight the final battle.

What does (USA) Hard Cider [Alcoholic Beverage] Tastes Like?

Note: I do not and will not promote drinking or underage drinking.
These information is based on my own personal experiences and taste tests; all is based on my personal opinions. Currently I will only talk about "apple" only hard cider taste and not any other hard cider with added ingredients such as spices/herbs or other fruits.

Most of the (USA) hard cider I try so far fall under these category:

• Taste like "Hard Cider" - Ya I know. You will say "that doesn't explain anything at all!" But that the only explanation I can explain because I couldn't remember or find any foods or beverages that has similar taste. You need to personally taste it to understand it (I don't promote drinking).
• Taste like "Hard Cider" plus Juices like flavor- depend on the "Brand" that make it like this, the juices percentage vary. These type of hard cider has a high percentage of being sweet because of the juice flavor. (I don't promote drinking).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hard Cider in general should be leading toward sweet because it uses apple (fruit) as the bases but it also depend on the apple species the Brand uses so read the label if stated.

Bases on my taste test so far (TASTE #1-55), the (USA) hard cider is generally leading toward the sweet side. But they can be further break down into category as the following:

• Sweet : The general notion
• Semi-Sweet: unless stated on the label, usually people will state they either Sweet or Dry. This type of cider either lead toward sweet or bittersweet while having bland like taste, Dry is just an extra if it there.
• Dry: This is not a flavor but more of an effect, if stated on the label it just mean that beverage will lose all flavor and taste of flavor not long after it enter your mouth.
• Bittersweet: it depend on the Brand and it usually do not appear in the bigger (US) Hard cider brand unless stated on the label of those brand. Bittersweet is as stated bittersweet and usually come from the apple species itself that make it bittersweet.
