Very Addictive games. It is a really good game.

reminds me of my child hood good game

I only stopped playing to search for Etna's hentai.
10/10

Great amount of depth after the main storyline if you enjoy the grind. And the Item World adds grinding which is more enjoyable as you hunt for the best weapons out there.

This is overall a good version of a quality strategy JRPG. It got off to a rough start, but it's since been patched several times and is now running very well.

+ Options for updated textures, lighting and other features.
+ Can be played entirely with a mouse (and it works quite well).
+ All the extra content from the PSP version of the game.

- Interal resolution is fixed (though the window can be resized).
- No option to speed up/skip walking and jumping animations, or skip cutscenes.
- No content from the DS version (though there is a fan mod that addresses this).

Trip down memory lane

Do yourself a favor and play using a controller. The keyboard controls are weird. Overall, it's the same old Disgaea with a new coat of paint. The new map textures look great!

Gonna b perfectly honest here.

I came for Etna.

Twice.

If you have not yet played a Disgaea game then buy this game! Although it's lacking many of the gameplay conviniences provided by the sequels this game has without a doubt the best soundtrack and story in the series. Disgaea is a strategy JRPG where you spend A LOT of your time leveling up gear, units, skills, discovering new classes, and upgrading gear and weapons to make your team as overpowered as possible.

Even if you don't like Anime the game is packed with super funny moments and it also tackles greater moral values about the perception of good and evil. The main character is a demon prince named Laharl who sets out to prove himself as the new overlord after finding out his father King Krichevskoy had passed away from choking on a pretzel. He is accompanied by an untrustworthy vassal, Etna and a love freak Angel, Flonne who was sent to the netherworld to assasinate the already dead Overlord.

Gameplay wise it's a grid based rpg reminiscent of games like Final Fantasy Tactics or Fire Emblem. But what Disgaea does differently and what makes it so great is the freedom and customization to do whatever you want with your characters. While some classes are more proficient in the speed they learn skills with certain weapon types than others, you can teach any class to use any weapon. Want to make a thief that uses a sword rather than a gun in order to train faster in the long run? It will take some extra time at first but go for it. Want to teach your Magic Knight every elemental spells in the game? Then research the mentor system.

I recommend not reading too much into starter tips and just to test out all the classes and monsters for yourself. Once you reach the endgame is where you really start to need online help and strategy guides.

So if you're looking for a good time killer looking no further than Disgaea. I've unregrettably spent hundreds of hours on this series. If you have a Playstation 3,4, or Vita there are even better Disgaea games. I prefer this game to be handheld but console/PC is just as good.

Please release more DIsgaea ports!

One of my favorite games of all time. It was so great to relive the experiance that is Disgaea.
I highly recomend this to fans of tactical RPGs or those wishing for something different.

Only issue I have with this port is that it will currently not run in full screen mode. Anytime I have it in fullscreen it reverts to a window as soon as I try to do anything in the battle screen. Other then that all the querks seem to be resolve from the initial launch of the port.
