Phantom Brave is a unique game. It's got interesting gameplay, awesome characters, and endless random dungeons. If you like customizing a character's moveset (you can give any character or weapon most of the skills except for a unique few) and dungeon crawling (the max level of this game is 9999), you should try Phantom Brave! I love this game so much I have it on PS2, PSP, and now Steam. I was really impressed when this 20-year-old game got a patch fix AND a QoL update on Steam recently. For a while the game was unplayable for certain AMD users including myself due to graphics issues but it's been fixed on my old machine, fingers crossed it runs fine on yours too. There's an active dev team trying to get this game working still in 2024 and I think that says a lot about the game. <3

Very nice, the story is pretty good. The characters are well written (Marona actually acts like a little girl, emotional and irrational) and the recent 1.21 update fixed and improved a bunch of old details that left a lot to be desired. Totally recommend it, a classic Nippon Ichi game. The confine mechanics are different from the other disgaea games but if you are used to the grind of disgaea games you should be able to 100% solo the game and post game with marona and maybe only use the phantoms for a thing or two. With enough will and a properly leveled weapon the challenge is totally doable.

One of the most unique and interesting battle system N1 did. A light hearted dramatic story with an ost that is perfect for it. A complete version of the game with quality nice addition to the original that goes unnoticed but makes it far more confortable to play like the removal of 128 items limit. Finaly a non disgaea game with a direct sequel too. Even though Soul Nomad is an inderect one due to the presence of one character in it.

I played Phantom Brave over a decade ago on the Wii. I'm surprised that I love it just as much as I did back then. I'm probably going to put 200+ hours into this game to do all the completionist criteria. It's a really great game with a decent story that still manages to pull my heart strings! It's a great game to play in long bouts or short spurts. Grinding for the main story is relatively unnecessary, but for the post-game content grinding and guides are almost required.

This is my favourite NIS game because it got best story, gameplay, soundtrack and art direction. My recommendation for this company is to focus on other titles instead of solo focusing on Disgaea. The main issue of this game is that settings can't be not saved, you have to configure every time you launch the game. Good port overall.
