Dood! Disgaea 6: Defiance Of Destiny Will Come To Switch This June

Sold.

And sold again.

Day 1 buy for me

Day one buy for sure.

My 1st disgaea since number 3 back on the ps3, definitely day one

I was just about to buy Disgaea5 yesterday as it is on discount, but I´m still not sure about it. I love strategy rpgs such as Fire Emblem or FF tactics but have never played this series. Reviews on it aren´t that great, so I will give it a thought before the sale ends...

I kinda enjoyed the demo of entry 5 more than I thought I would.

What is considered to be the best Disgaea game out there?

I am very interested but I might wait for a sale.

There is a demo of Disgaea 5

@jamesthemagi Thanks! Don´t know how I missed it. Will try it this weekend for sure

To Hell with all Disgaea fans!!! (... that includes me. See you there!)

awesome, d o o d

Pre-ordered awhile ago, when the game and the special edition were announced. Good to know when to expect the credit card to process.

This year is going to have hype exclusives releasing every single month on Switch, isn't it?

So far we have BD2 for February, MHR for March, Pokemon Snap for April, Disgaea 6 for June, and NMH3 in August. And that's with a number of notable exclusives still with vague 2021 release dates.

THIS is why you want third-party support, lol. This is going to be an amazing year, and very little of that is attributable to Nintendo.

FE is far more exact (1 of the reasons why I hate the RNG during lv up) with formulas in regard of strength + weapon - defense = damage
Disgaea has no permadeath, gives you the chance to max out units.
They both have weapon mastery, but Disgaea has way deeper systems, such as throwing, environmental rules through the Geo Effects, item leveling, master-pupil relationship, etc... and Disgaea 5 has the most refined GamePlay systems.
The Story for Disgaea 5 is one of the weakest in the entire series (very generic), but it is still funny and silly. Themes involve demons are capable of love vs medieval times of FE.

Bizarre how announcements like this happen after the big direct which they're not included in. This and The Silver Case would have been good additions to speed up the pacing of the Direct in some places...

That DC girls game thing segment went for far too long for its own good.

Just found out Fubuki is in the dlc for this game. I was already pretty interested cause I like strategy RPGs but now I'm almost certainly gonna try it out!

@jamesthemagi Thanks for all the details,
Yeah it seems the story is silly but fun. So far my experience with the demo is that it has been too easy after 4 stages I think. Like, they can´t damage my main characters and I can one-hit destroy all enemies. I was not expecting FE maddening difficulty but this is strange, I think I chose easy or something? Stages are also very small compared to FE for now. I will finish the demo and decide whether it is a good choice or if I should go for the only route I´m missing in FE:3H, the blue lions for now

No problem, I'm biased because I want you to get into the franchise
Disgaea 5 is infamous as the "tutorial" game
In other words, the main story is to get you acclimated with the vast amount of systems the series has amassed throughout its history.
The post game, is the "real" game.
The main story boss is lv 120 ish if I remember correctly and it can be beat at 50 hrs
The most powerful superboss will require you to transmigrate a couple of characters at lv 9999 a few times and over 200 hrs
Disgaea games are always an amazing value when it comes to hours played and price paid
Disgaea 1 has, arguably, the best story, but most archaic system (old school grinding)
If you want something closer to FE, and like Advance Wars, I recommend Wargroove
Triangle Project, currently in development, seems to be like Final Fantasy Tactics
