I would recommend this game to players who: 1. Don't mind reading tons of guides 2. Enjoy min-maxing and grinding 3. Like big numbers 4. Aren't bothered by a mediocre story 5. Have a controller 6. Are willing to stay for the post-game content/100% Achievement [Other Comments] - Tough to learn. I read a lot of guides to get 100%. - Not all levels can be brute-forced with higher stats. Puzzle-solving is key. - You spend 150+ hours achieving 100% completion, only to discover that some madman did it in 4.5 hours. - The amount of post-game grinding depends on your ability to multitask and min-max. By beating a stage, you can level up characters, gain mana, upgrade "innocents" and so much more. Should you pick an easy stage with fewer rewards but faster clear time, or vice versa? The smarter your decisions, the quicker the grind. - Thus, the grind (s u f f e r i n g) I have endured is due to sub-optimal decision-making. It's not meant to be that rough. - Playing the game in Japanese and English feels totally different

To me Disgaea 5 is the most completed Disgaea game so far. Wonder why? let me tell you, Disgaea games has always been a crazy tactical game since the first game. You can max out and broke pre-defined characters stats, make characters learn moves not in their class, skill animation has way too much effort put into it and the list goes on. But what makes Disgaea 5 the most completed in my opinion is because they fleshed out some mechanics for better or worse and add more mechanics that make the game a lot better. Even then I couldn't really recommend this one to new player because it is overwhelmingly packed with content. Like waaaaayyy too much. I couldn't even understand the game and the story when i first play it a long time ago. Why the character just shot him? Is that an enemy or allies? Why an enemy join our party? I don't understand much back then but then I try Disgaea 1 and loved it. It makes me understand more about this Disgaea world moreover because the first game is simpler honestly in all things. So I really recommend this game to every Disgaea or Tactical fans out there except new players who never heard of Disgaea or even touch a tactical game. If you're new to this, you should play the earlier version like Disgaea 1,2,4 but if you still want to buy this one, consider reading the "help" option fully because it will pretty much explain everything there are about how to play Disgaea.

Definitely needed this after finishing Disgaea 6's lack of content. Don't get me wrong, D6 does have its audience, just not the usual Disgaea fanbase since plays more like a mindless mobile game. Apparently they pulled it back some with D7 but i honestly don't want to pay 80$ just to find out so here i am on 5. Story-wise, its a lot more dark then 4, which can be a turn off if you were so into 4 like i was (still be favourite), but it does have decent character building as each becomes more comfortable with being a team as you progress (albeit forced for the first half lol). Gameplay-wise, pretty much all you could want in a disgaea game that was built on all the games before it, has most of what made them games good and then some. If all you are are a casual player of games, around 20 hours, level 150-200 characters and a decent weapon on each is all you really need. Anything beyond that has its usual min-max potential of the item world, into the grind fest maps, into the character world, reincarnating, and doing it all over again until your unit has max weapon profs and max stat growths. Then you go into the carnage dimension and that's when the true grind starts. And of course, ends with a quad Baal fight that that you can go to at any time near the end of the main story that will instantly kill any unit with less then 50m hp as they leave the base panel. Lots of sources to actually grow your characters, and unlike older Disgaea titles, there isn't a limit on item world floors so you can max out any weapon of any rank just by going deep enough into them with maxed out innocents of each stat, though base rank 1 Carnage weapons are better stated then a rank 40 normal weapon with growth that is pretty much 3x faster so not recommended to go hard on it until you get some of those. In conclusion, if you're dissatisfied with the direction Disgaea went after 5, then 5 is definitely a good way to get your min-max kick that isn't inflated numbers for the sake of having higher numbers. I quite enjoyed playing it, was a nice palate cleanser after 6. Not fully done playing yet, but i wanted to play other things so it's shelved for now and i'll be back once i feel like playing disgaea again.

The game plays with your grinding dopamine, but that's nothing new for anyone who's played Disgaea before. It starts out as a tactical strategy RPG but slowly becomes a true min-maxing micro-managing party, and it's awesome.

Is this the last great Disgaea game, or am I just old? The 3d art in the new games isn't for me. I hear they removed existing systems for the new games too, without replacing them with more complex systems, so that made me lose interest in even giving them a try. My favorite part of playing a new Disgaea game has been stacking a new system on top of the existing systems and being able to envision an even more absurdly pointlessly convoluted and expansive power scaling system. That's what you get here, by the way, newcomers. You play this game for the ridiculously pointlessly expansive power grind. That's what it's for. You even tolerate the anime cringe for it. That thing that happens in other RPGs, where you stop leveling up. That doesn't happen here. Make the numbers go up.
