Day 2 - Your favorite character.
Ah, another day of not having an answer. But I will go with a character I quite enjoy from a game I'm currently playing to make up for it. Disgaea 4's protagonist, Valvatorez, is one of the most unique protagonists that NIS has managed to spit out. He's a role model for what a demon should be without being stereotypically evil. Unlike Laharl, who was a malicious demon bent on defending his throne, and Mao, who summoned a hero to the Netherworld for the sole purpose of stealing his humanity to become stronger (and, in turn, slowly turning the hero into a demon), Valvatorez is a chivalrous demon that isn't particularly "good" or "evil", and with good reason. He believes that demons need to be a symbol of fear for humans, but that's all. He has no desire to kill or take over anything- after all, he's a mere Prinny Instructor, and he takes pride in that fact.
This is what makes him so interesting. He's chivalrous and really only cares about upholding and protecting the state of the netherworld, and those that he allies himself with he makes damn sure will stay safe (due to his manifisto of never breaking a promise, hence the game's subtitle). He's a hero to some extent but he has no problem with the fact. And yet, despite all this, he never feels like a human or a Lawful Good demon forced into an evildoer's shoes. His reasons for doing anything and everything is justifiably within demon law, and while even characters within the story seem to question his morals, it's no wonder why his party is so loyal to him. He may not be my favorite character in general or even in Disgaea, but he certainly does make an impression as a likable protagonist.
Day 3 - A game that is underrated.
Underrated? Hm...I'm going to have to go with Time Hollow. For those who don't know, Time Hollow is a DS Adventure game about a kid who gets a pen that, when used, can open a pocket in time. From there, the player would alter things in the past and change the present as a result. These "things" could range from minor alterations to death, and their affects on the future tended to be major more often than not (thanks to the butterfly effect and whatnot).
It wasn't the best adventure game, but if I were a more review-savvy gamer and based my purchase on the reviews it got, I would have avoided that game like the plague. It's a shame, really, because it has a nice concept and and pretty good execution as well. The main character looks a bit generic and the characters aren't as memorable as those from, say, Ace Attorney, but they're far from bad or boring, and the game itself is a good length.
