This game is pretty witty and fun. The story is cheesy fun and there are lot of things to do. Warning though the game does get repetitive, As long as you limit yourself to about an hour a day though you wont burn out playing it and should have a wonderful time with this game.
This game is, in essence, "Disgaea Hour of Dakrness" From the playstation 2 ported over to the Nintendo DS. lag) in heavily crowded Item World Maps.Second, the game's music, which was incredibly brilliant in the original has not been directly ported, it's bitrate is now something like a hybrid between the venerable midi and a normal mp3. While i always loved this game for its unique appeal and anti-hero cast, anyone who is looking to get the same experience as the original should be warned so they won't be dissapointed:The graphics have been reduced from their original quality to something that the DS--with it's relatively low capabilities--can render. It can even skip a few frames of display (aka. So it sounds dull by comparison.Thankfully a few features have been added to the game to make it more interesting, like new secret characters, levels and Etna mode (where you play through Etna's campaign).Overall the experience is very close to the original, even though I miss the great music a quite a bit. If you keep the above in mind your play through should be a good one.
If you want a big party of well-leveled members, you're going to have to put some time into building each of them up.Where this game shines is the story, dialogue, and characters. It's turn-based and linear, with multiple endings based on your choices and actions throughout the game. The game play is set up on a grid, with you issuing orders to your party members with a panel on the right-hand side. It's sad in some parts, serious in others, but mostly, it's very funny. It's not a lot of variation, but enough to warrant a second or third look. Leveling is a bit of a grind, though. I've replayed this game time and time again for the different endings and party configurations. I think this DS version lacks some of the voice overs the PS version had, but I'm still happy with it.
They are loving it. There are four kids in the house and they have been playing the multi-player option (two at a time). It was a wonderful Christmas present.
The level cap keeps this game from ending after the story does which creates a longer playability.If you haven't played any of the previous Disgaea titles, the leveling is a bit slow at first until you reach a specific point in the story where you can "power level". I am new to the Disgaea titles and I have to say that it's a fun Strategy RPG. The best part about this game is its sarcasm and humor. I had to look this part up on the good'ole internet. But once you figure it out, it's a fun game.
