I picked it up yesterday, started playing today. Another Nippon Ichi strategy game (Makers of Disgaea: Hour of Darkness), for those of you who aren't aware of it. It came out before Disgaea over in Japan, actually.
Anyways, it's pretty good so far. Not as good as Disgaea in my opinion, but still fun. Probably the worst part so far for me is the random name generator for enemies. Honestly, whoever translated this to English was just plain stupid. It works by taking one word (Specific to the type of monster) and then pulling another completely random word (Or sometimes question marks...or an emoticon.) and adding it to the end. So you end up with such marvellous names as "Hippo Apple" or "Bones Thanks" or even "Bit :-(". It wouldn't be so bad except when you manage to convert a monster to your side there is no way to change its name. =/
Anyways, I like some of the concepts so far. The Dark Energy/Portal system is kind of cool.
Anyone else have it, or plan to get it? What do you think of it?
