Can't really agree with it. Disagaea is a 7/10 at best for me. It's funny for a bit, but then it becomes just a grindfest of numbers. I really tried but i could never bring myself to finish one.

Well i dont know if thats part of the reason but in my case (and especially with this game) i never cared about portability, in fact playing outside only takes away from my enjoyment... the sounds of people talking in the backgrounds, the sound of cars passing by, the light of the sun reflecting or obscuring the screen, so many things that distract me, nothing like playing at home with no one and nothing to distract me and take away from my experience.

Also Disgaea is the type of game you play for overly long sessions of multiple hours, i wouldnt like being limited by the battery life of the thing and besides when i ever used any portable devices it was for small breaks and stuff like that (during work, College, School etc. and never in any of those did i had the time to play something like Disagea, which is better played if you have a giant amounts of time to invest in it in every session).

1st paragraph: I'm totally like you. I prefer to play games at home for the exact same reasons, especially on the main campaign of games where I want full attention.

2nd paragraph: I disagree. I think Disgaea is very versatile. For example: if you're playing the main campaign, you're probably gonna want to play many hours straight and have full attention, but if you're grinding through the Item World for the 298109223928390th time, you probably just do it mechanically. So doing that type of things while on the go is the perfect opportunity. And since this version is both home and portable, there is no denying it is the definitive/best one. Even if you only play at home 100% of the time, this version still offers an extra (and convenient for most people) option.

I was indeed talking about the campaing since Item World is just for grinding and you can do that at whatever pace you want, also im not arguing over which version is better if the Switch can please everyone then yeah its the most versatile version indeed, that being said i only care about the game and not some hardware advantage (like the Switchs portability), the only thing that makes this version better as a game for me is all the added DLC (which i was lucky to get on a sale along with the game as well).



Huh, quite a few points higher than the PS4 version. Perhaps the extra dlc boostin' it up again?

No, it's mostly because of 41 reviews vs 12. You don't have all these yellow reviews for a remaster.

Switch review scores are suspiciously inflated. Ports shouldn't score higher than original unless they're a part in a collection. Let alone by 7 whole points.

The Last of Us Remastered had 1080p and 60fps modes and included single player and multiplayer DLCs at $50 yet it didn't score a single point higher than the PS3 version.

I guess Switch ports will keep getting higher scores than their true value just because the system is portable. Which is completely irrelevant to the actual quality of the game.

Worth noting there would naturally be less movement the higher you go on the scale.  Games in the mid 90s are already exceptional, you would have to do something really insane to them to move them by more than a point if even that.  Games in the low 80s have numerous potential improvements that could be made.  It will always be easier to move from and 8 to and 8.5 than a 9.5 to a 9.7 or 10.  

Oh and there is no "trend" here.  At all.  Snake Pass is scored the exact same on Switch as PS4.  NBA Playgrounds scored lower on Switch.  1-2-Switch got mauled in the ratings and Super Bomberman R didn't fare well either.

Just saw giag gave it a 75 for PS4 and a 90 now, the quoted was it had a "so-so narrative" and now apparently it doesn't, though it didn't change a single bit.

Same reviewer both times?

MAybe he is just a Closet Nintendo Fanboy(apparently a lot of reviewers are).

Or maybe you just looking for excuses to justify the good scores Nintendo games get.

Nope, I checked it yesterday and they were different reviewers for both reviews

That could explain it then...
