The game is really fun. Its a much better change story and character wise from d5. Imo d5 had the worst characters and plot and its nice to see d6 go back to being about demons in netherworlds doing demon antics. 5 felt like a political space opera and that didn't feel disgaea to me. Visuals could be polished but I think if they wanted to sell this as a full price game anyone who wasn't a disgaea fan picking it up would complain about 2d sprites in a 60 dollar game, so they should work to update and improve visuals moving forward. I've been playing since d1 and I'm sad to see so many people jumping on what feels like a band wagon to trash the game, so it's important to me to have my opinion out here if you're interested. The auto battle system could use refinement, but is a very welcome tool to ease the grind. The way I've been using it is only after I've beaten a stage. Never use it to play any stages for the first time and that's how I recomend anyone use it, but these games are about saying screw it and doing whatever you damn well please, so if you want to play through the whole game at 4X speed and not touch more than 1 button, then that's pretty disgaea of you. I'd say if you want to see more disgaea games in the future, give this one a chance with an open mind. It's a very fun game with fun stupid characters like disgaea of old, and I can see NIS building and iterating off of this to make incredible disgaea games in the future so long as this sells well enough to warrant a D7 or a D2-2. Deffiently don't want this to be the last Disgaea game they make.
