The division of the game into three major eras keeps matches engaging and allows for comebacks, but the new civilization evolution system feels less satisfying. While combat sees positive changes and fewer empty turns, some mechanics—like diplomacy and trade—have been oversimplified. The game is visually appealing but suffers from long loading times, and although it remains addictive, it may not fully satisfy longtime fans due to its streamlined approach.- Vandal

Disgaea 3 is currently one of the greatest strategic RPG games, with a very fun story, a combat system which fans will love, and a more than exquisite gameplay. Not only that, the game is a very long and replayable one, above all for players which want to squeeze the 100% of it. Unfortunately, and this is one of the things that could undermine buyers -apart from the visuals-, Disgaea 3 is fully en English, and not exactly an easy one. It is a pity it has not been localized to Spanish at all.- Vandal

There are a few more missions, variety and territories, but this doesn't mean that we're dealing with a bad video game, quite the opposite. In fact, it may be surprising how well this curious strategic-tactical experiment with roguelike elements has turned out. Its gameplay is very solid, the possibilities of the units are deep and the way of transferring the run and gun action to a new genre is talented. So if you are a faithful follower of Metal Slug and also connect with the style of game that has been devised, you may end up like us and get hooked.- Vandal
