Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days Review - PSInsider

Playstation Insider writes:

"D2 has always been considered a rather strange stand-out game when it comes to story. The first Disgaea was extremely episodic, revolving around a lot of sporadic, random humor with random story bits thrown in. Ultimately, it wrapped up with a larger over-arching plot in the game's final chapters. D2's plot, however, was more of a typical RPG. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a tad bit generic, with some stale, clichéd characters. It did have some interesting elements that were worth playing through the game. Whereas D1 and (from what I understand) D3, revolved around a lot of humorous bits throughout the story, D2's story revolved around a hero's quest to protect the daughter of a Demon King, and in the process lift a curse that has been placed upon his friends, family, and the inhabitants of his home village."

PixlBit's Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories Review - PS2 Classics

PixlBit | "Friends, let me talk to you for a bit about addiction of a gaming nature. I’m sure you’ve experienced it before: that sense of falling into a game so completely that it takes over your brain and keeps you up until the wee hours of the morning. I’m here to talk about a recent addiction of mine, a game so devilishly devious in its seduction that you would be wise to stay away, even as I tell you that you should by all means play it. That game would be Disgaea 2, a PlayStation 2 game recently added to the PSN marketplace as a PS2 classic."
