I started playing Disgaea 1 for my Discord server’s game of the month. I bounced off of this game all the way back at release. Now, I’ve given it a fair shake and it’s already feeling like another one of those I would actually have liked back in the day. My experience with this genre is still pretty limited; I’ve played Final Fantasy Tactics and Tactics Ogre: LUCT along with a couple of the newer Fire Emblem games.
What do you think are the must-play strategy JRPGs?
Unicorn Overlord! It really is as good as people say. I’ve not played any Tactics Ogre games but many people say that it reminds them of those games. It’s very different than Fire Emblem or FF Tactics, it’s all in real time(but can be paused) and it’s not grid based. I haven’t played FF Tactics but have played Three Houses and Engage. Unicorn Overlord feels very unique compared to those games.
