I kept my expectations low after how big of a disappointment Disgaea 6 was, but luckily they made this one actually play like a good Disgaea game. Lots of classic classes return (honestly maybe too many, so just pick a fair amount you want on your team if you're playing casually), humanoids have access to all weapon skill again based on weapon expierence. The story while following some of the disgaea tropes does a few things different (for example the main character is a father). Magichange unfortunately doesn't return, but There is the New giant mode any unit can use that gives them a massive AOE attack and special effect dependent on the unit. There's also plenty of side content to unlock as you progress through the story, and challenges on each map for bonus rewards. Overall I had a great time with Disgaea 7, I still prefer the 2d style, but I think it's a great step back in the right direction
