Why should I bother even getting through chapter 2? honestly, this kind of scaling fits the series way more than the previous one. I hoped they'd knock me to level 1 with normal stats after the first chapter, like it's a dream, but seeing it persist in the second chapter I went here to see when the game knocks me down to stats I have any sort of scale for, and here I find this, which makes it look like the inflated stats are here to stay. This levelling is absurd, and breaks all sense of scale for me. It had parodies show up, but the main storyline and mechanics wasn't a complete parody.ĭisgaea 3 annoyed me precisely because of it's radical departure in the story department, blatantly breaking the 4th wall repeatedly in story cutscenes. As someone who played through the first game on PS2, I disagree. There are glimmers of excellence, but it all comes together in such a disheartening package.Originally posted by Waifu4Life:Disgaea has alway been a parody of JRPGs, totally not surprised about this. Unbalanced, chaotic and a mess, Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny pushes the franchise in the wrong direction. If you had told me this was originally going to be a free-to-play mobile game, I would believe you. You can just not use it, but it feels like it's meant to be used and abused to level up considering the recommendations for each chapter. It could have something to do with the new auto-play feature, which is detailed to how you can assign your characters AI roles, but it becomes another concern when it's better to just press a single button and win. Unfortunately, they've doubled down on the absurd values, making you question what's the point of doing quadrillions of damage, ensuring that leveling and the progression through the story is unbalanced. Combat is still a redeeming quality as the strategic tile-based formula remains fun, and the developers do throw in some interesting twists in the main story from time to time. The story is bland with few jokes that actually hit, and the cast of characters do not help the cause with uninspired backstories and personalities. As Disgaea: Hour of Darkness was the first game I ever reviewed nearly two decades ago, I have had a long and beloved history with Nippon Ichi's franchise, so it breaks my heart to play Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny.
