Publishers still need to die but at least the issue was resolved. Fun and cool game!

The game looks awesome and the soundtrack is pretty good, but unfortunately it's not fun to play. I did sort of get it for free so I guess I shouldn't complain too much, but it still felt like a waste of my time.

Stutters frequently on my computer despite the fact that my specs are way above the recommended, the cars feel weird to drive, and the story seems lame (which to be fair is a NFS staple but still). All in all, not a very good first impression, I went right back to Most Wanted (2012) after playing this.

This game is honestly pretty great, barring ♥♥♥♥ like Vergil giving a demon woman an abortion via a sniper rifle

This game is weird.
If you're here for some good SRPG gameplay, you may want to look elsewhere because using the newly introduced auto-battle system is maybe way too good, especially if you take the time to modify your units' "Demonic Intelligence", and will get you through almost every battle in the game.
On the other hand, if the thing you enjoyed from the previous Disgaea games was building up your character(s), then the new Super Reincarnation, D-Merits, and Karma systems are a lot of fun to play around with.
As for the story, I was pleasantly surprised: the main character Zed is great and the side characters aren't annoying like in Disgaea 5, although you might think it overstays its welcome because it seems to have the highest amount of chapters out of every game in the series.
The presentation, however, is kind of rough. The new 3D character models don't look that good, literally every special attack animation takes place on a flat featureless ground, and the normal attack animations look kind of awkward. The music and art is still great as usual though. Also, there's some technical issues: sometimes the game will just freeze for a solid 4 seconds during combat and if you alt-tab the framerate goes to hell.
In conclusion, I would recommend buying this game on a sale if you're a fan of the series or if you want a high rent Cookie Clicker-esque kind of game.

Absolute classic. It's definitely the first Disgaea game though, so going back to this game after playing its sequels can be challenging because it's comparatively a lot slower and stricter.
I might recommend Disgaea 1 Complete for the PS4 and Nintendo Switch over this Steam release, because it's basically just a prettier version of Disgaea 1 even if you can kinda tell it has a low budget.

Good alternative to Mario Party, it feels a little bit uninspired but that doesn't stop it from being an enjoyable game to play with your friends.
