Long, long I had to search until I have outside the Final Fantasy series within the last years found such addictive titles such as Disgaea. Recommended by a good friend, I put a the game and could have no different to play it from the beginning and on. Already at the beginning of the story to get out of the laughter of the gags in quite a colorful history not get out, which is clearly worked out with much attention to detail and always maintained at a constant level to keep the players entertained. The starting point for the troops around the (future) Overlord Laharl is his father's castle, chatted in the Munter, discussed on the next steps, shopped, visited Dark Assembly, the next healing appointment pending or simply the next battlegrounds are visited. First, to the latter again: Anyone who has played Final Fantasy Tactics will be very quickly get used to the combat system and not want to miss. The fighting fit as the love theme graphics as the pot on the lid and give the player many, many hours of gameplay. Sure, with the image one might see it as you want and of course, the PS2 is there capable of more, but let's be honest: Who cares because if the comic optics fits and is it then but halfway passable the games fun to the highest level is? I must say for my part that a 3D appearance would have less fit than it is; also makes the comic style much in the cutscenes ago, always the recurring gags and the black humor of the players wrest a new smile in the course. (Up) Level freaks can also look forward to the opportunity to bring every Char to 9999 level and for all those who look forward to a variety of character classes, will also have fun when all possible unlocked and have trained (the Monster like Dragon, Manticore, Golem, Nightmare and more are represented). To the point then as a last resort "only-in-English": In this day and age I take now even the liberty and say that of all long-standing gamblers speak the language and do not have problems with the translation, since it with one little-more-than-school English is quite unproblematic. In addition, I lean now out the window and say that the humor and the voice acting could never be as good works in German / translated that the game still remains then so funny. Disgaea can be any RPG lover fully recommended the search to one after a welcome change from Final Fantasy, Disgaea or Breath of fire are.
