While Phantom Brave may not have reached the same heights of popularity as Disgaea, the notion that its complexity hindered its success is somewhat overstated. Enthusiasts of the Disgaea series will discover a comforting familiarity in the mechanics of Phantom Brave and its follow-up, Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero. Both games share strategic elements that fans of tactical RPGs will appreciate, making the transition between the two series seamless and enjoyable. Despite the perceived complexity, Phantom Brave offers a rich and engaging experience that is well worth exploring for any fan of the genre.
