While an upgrade path would have been ideal, Disgaea 7 Complete has a wealth of content to keep you busy for hundreds, if not thousands, of hours. The main story can certainly entertain, but I found more enjoyment out of the DLC, even if the DLC stories are not voiced, which is a major disappointment.
Neva: Prologue tells us the story of how Alba met Neva, her trusted wolf companion. Early into this glimpse of their past, Alba stumbles upon a small wolf cub. When u first meet Neva, they run away, but freeing them from behind a cracked pillar causes them to follow you, eager to find out who their rescuer is.
Proud Nordics does provide some fine quality of life features, but they are still encased in an adventure that is nowhere as good as the previous entries in the series. The new content is fine for what it is, but does little to push the story forward, and is only for those who loved the story and want to deep dive into the lore.
Extraction-style games have rarely enticed me, largely due to the player vs player systems and the prospect of having them take away much of the progress I’ve made on my gear. However, when games like Eldegarde offer up PvE throughout its offerings, it certainly changes my mind about the genre and gets me intrigued.
Romeo is a Deadman is certainly a Suda51 game, and while it is Grasshopper’s best in years, I do wish the No More Heroes jank didn't follow itself here and infect combat and general movement. Still, the craziness that is Romeo is a Deadman is sound, and those looking for another bizarre fever dream are likely to be pleased.
Cast down from orbit, you’ll find your purpose in the Adventure’s Guild, tasked with uncovering a conspiracy that sees the King of this land kidnapped. With real-time combat and a fantastic progression system, Philna Fantasy does have some engaging moments of gameplay, with only a lacking story and cast of characters really dragging it down.
I Hate This Place tells a new story set in the confines of this richly detailed world. As Elena, you'll battle monstrosities and horrors as you attempt to find your missing friend, Lou, after a ritual goes horribly horribly wrong. To be fair, have rituals in horror stories ever gone right? Yeah, didn't think so.
Nova Antarctica is a great time, and I enjoyed my time in these harsh lands. The fun of learning what you need to do to survive, and saving any animals I found, was a fun challenge. I would definitely recommend this one to anyone who loves to challenge themselves to survive in hostile lands and wishes to push their supply management to the test.
