In video games, not all characters are created equal. Many exist for the primary purpose of serving as generic obstacles, fodder that any half-decent player will overcome by the dozen. It’s a sad truth in digital worlds ruled by stati...

As usual, the lineage of even one Disgaea game, or NIS SRPG to be less specific, can get complicated. The original Disgaea 5, which told the tale of Killia and his revenge against the Demon Emperor Void Dark, was released in 2015 on PS4. Th...
