Do you think it'll be better than Disgaea 6?

[Nightmarian]

I'm glad they decided to release it on PC at the same time as other platforms this time, and I've been a longtime fan of the series, but man D6 made me sad...

It is better.

Can you give me a quick rundown on why you think so? No need for a book or anything I just want to hear your thoughts since you seem confident.

It looks pretty but I dunno, I guess I could just wait for reviews but having more points of reference to digest is never a bad thing.

It's not a question of thinking. JP version has been out for 6 months. The reviews are Clear, Disgaea 7 is one of the better Disgaea titles.

Disgaea 6 had good reviews in Japan too though, least I'm misremembering, and I don't think so because I remember they were the reason I wasn't worried about 6 until I played it.

Saw several english tests for switch, ps5 and pc and are the same opinon that its much better then disgaea 6.
The only problem are translation errors hopefully beeing fixed soon. Nis stated working on a patch.

What? Is that a joke? Disgaea 6 got a ton of ♥♥♥♥ for going from 2D to 3D. It got a ton of ♥♥♥♥ for having very few classes and monster types. It also got a ton of ♥♥♥♥ for the amount of grind required, because of the auto-battle. Disgaea 6 was considered one of the worst Disgaeas.

Yeah I'm watching some now, only a few have directly compared it to Disgaea 6 but all have said it's actually better and they seem to know what they're talking about.

Whelp, I haven't missed a disgaea game yet so why not I guess.

Well being the worst on switch it have random small lag in town(plus drifting controll along with it. Which is annoying). On PC/PS4 you don't have to deal with small lag spikes from what I hear in town.

I agree with you, but that sentiment didn't become popular until after the US release. Even then, the game still averages at mid 70s which isn't bad, especially for a non-mainstream JRPG.

The Japanese reviews however were far more generous and I just checked; most range into 80s or call the game decent.

Soooo... hence my concern and lack of trust.

For the record, auto-battlers are incredibly popular in asian territories just like gacha garbage is. Just because we know grind is a horrendous waste of time doesn't mean Koreans and Japanese do, and they're the one who make Asian-developed games including JRPGs, obivously...

I'm actually getting that occasional lag in town on ps5, so it may not be a switch hardware issue. Hopefully it gets patched. After playing d6 on switch I would absolutely never recommend playing on it if you can avoid it anyway though.

I wouldn't waste my time buying any non-nintendo exclusive on Switch. They are always worse. Even easier to run indie games like Hades.

Oh I see. I guess I hear it from wrong person then.

I really liked Disgaea 6, but it's not hard to top that game either, it had a lot of problems. NIS decided to dial things back, like getting rid of the obscene level cap and just going back to 9999, so that right there is already a plus.
