Despite being the best Disgaea game as far as Mechanics and QOL it is somehow the worst.

You can tell NIS bit off more than they can chew by bringing the game to 3D. A lot of characters are reused, the same boss fight at the end of every chapter, lack of legacy units, etc. While being the highest "quality" they couldn't bring everything we'd want over. Kinda like Pokémon did... but a little more excusable since Disgaea doesn't print money.

The story is... worse than previous titles. Not as funny. Characters are more one note than I recall but if you don't find their "joke" funny they start becoming annoying.

Endgame is also easier this time around. Spend a few bucks on a microtransaction and grind and now you're a god. This will be the only title I platinum from the series if that's an indication on that. A major positive for me... but many people might not share that tune who've been grinding the item world since 2003.
