Disgaea fans: How does 4 compare to 1 and 2, doods? (self.games)

I used to play the hell out of 1 and 2 back in the PS2 days, but I haven't touched the series beyond that, and haven't even played 1/2 much in the last 10 years.

How would you rate 4 in comparison? I noticed it was on sale in the Switch eShop, and I'd love to have one of the series to play on the go.

What I loved about the ones I played:

  • Story had a good balance of comedy and heart
  • Flexible and fun character building, with decent enough defined classes to get you started
  • Tons of post-game/side content (I didn't like every piece of it, but I liked how much there was to try.)
  • CAPTAIN GORDON, DEFENDER OF EARTH
  • Perfect geochains, though I was usually too smoothbrain for it.

What I didn't like:

  • Item world, IIRC worse in 1 than 2?
  • Adell's siblings
  • Demon court thing?

Personally I hope we get 3 on Steam one day, it was my introduction to the series, and no other entry has the same absurdly high amount of Post-Game content (Disgaea 3 had a LOOOOONG DLC support cycle and I hope 8 does as well... I miss Prierre and Nisa)
