>Knife ears

I can't wrap my head around how fucking stupid the lift & throw mechanic is. Couldn't they come up with something less silly?

>Provides a terrain advantage and permits characters to extend themselves dramatically farther than movement should allow
>Has other applications, like fusing enemy units together to make stronger targets, moving geo blocks around for purification/panel manipulation
>Tower Attacks are available in D4 on
>Legitimately invaluable in the Item World due to how messy each stage often tends to be

I really should have stopped after reading
>less silly?
but I already wrote it out. Kys.

I'm not saying it's not useful, just that it looks stupid and completely kills my immersion.

>Anime SRPG full of gags, jokes, character animations that are ridiculous, and near-SRW levels of planet-destroying superattacks
>Throwing someone breaks your immersion
I repeat, Kys

so this is the next level of a retarded

meanie

Cast is the worst in the franchise.

>tfw no Disgaea 4 party with 5’s gameplay

Is Disgaea PC worth playing?

I like turn based tactics games but I'm not really big on the weeb stuff

Persona 5 was better, and SMT V will be even better

tactical

Persona is normal dumb jap combat where you don't position your men and just press the kill button, it's the worst of both worlds

OP was talking about tactical rpg, you retard monkey

>Is Disgaea 5 the only tactical turn-based game of this generation?

This is my first Disgaea game.
Am I supposed to be using the DLC characters from the beginning? They steam roll everything, they feel leagues better than the MCs, especially Metallica. I'm on chapter 3, mind you.
And what should I focus on or what should I definetly know before it's too late?

I never played those games but whenever i see the character desgins i'm amazed, both boys and girls are oversexualized, just the way it should be

>Like the Disgaea series for the most part
>Item World burns me out
>Played up to 4
>Someone points out that Land Devastation in 5

Fuck, gotta find time to play 5.

Didn't D2 introduce Tower Attacks?

lewd

Agreed. I only liked Killia because edgelord with a heart of gold is appealing to me.

We'll never have D4 tier party ever again

Disgaea 3 has the worst party, worst class selection too.

I just unlocked the chara world is there anything I should know about it?

There are lots of fun ones on PC but if you only want the Jap console stuff there's really only that and Fire Emblem huh

Can you play the game without grinding? How do you know if you're over or underlevelled?

Tower Attacks were definitely in D4.

The DLC characters make the game incredibly easy.
There's really no strategies that you shouldn't be able to figure out to beat the main story. Post game on the other hand is a different story.

Absolutely. Just be warned that Disgaea (and all related games) tend to parody a lot off
weeb shit for shits and giggles.
If you don't get what the hell everyone is talking about then they're probably making fun of something.

You don't need to grind at all to beat the story. If you do the game becomes very easy but you can raise the difficulty to closer match your grinded levels.

no, they were introduced in 2.

You can increase character space movements and common evility slots with chara world. Every time you reincarnate the mana cost to re-enter char world resets.

Thanks
I probably wouldn't mind inside jokes about Final Fantasy or whatever as long as the gameplay is good and I can still care about the characters

Good to know that the version isn't shit or anything like that

whys that outfit so gay Sup Forums?

I've watched a DSP playthrough and the poor sap couldn't even get past the snow world. Are you sure about that notion?

I'm not into weebshit either and just got that game 2 days ago. It's great so far, I can tolerate the weebshit if it doesn't take it self too seriously.

Lostlet detected. Don't be envious of Killia's awesome outfit, voice and skills.

Because you love it, user.

>Tfw Disgaea always has great settings and tons of potential for character development and awesome stories
>Tfw it never lives up to its potential

It hurts.

Disgaea 3 has the potential for the absolute best party, and they fucked it up around the 60% mark. Mao and Almaz have absolutely perfect chemistry when it's just Doctor and Experiment, Raspberyl and Team Delinquent are lovable from start to finish, and the princess isn't bad on her own. Bigster and Salvatore were definitely a strong pair for the defining the inter-class conflicts, NOBODY disliked Champloo, and Geoffrey wasn't bad by any means, and the big reveal honestly COULD have been done well. Unfortunately, rather than lean more on the bleaker elements of the story it could have, it decided to opt for more Daddy Issues Mao for a full goddamn chapter until the end of the game, Almaz being the princesses' doormat was pathetic, the classroom wars were only in a minute chunk of the game, fighting Aurum was literally out of nowhere, and all of the focus was taken away from the super interesting side characters to focus on the shittiest parts of the lamest MC in Disgaea history. Fuck D3 was a waste of opportunities.

4 had the worst. All they ever did was shout their stupid catchphrases. Your typical conversation in 4 was muh dream, muh father, muh monny, muh lord, and SARDINES!

Well yeah as long as you come up with some strats you shouldn't need to grind to much or at all.
For example if something is giving you a ton of shit, stack HP up items on a Prinny and lob the fucker like a grenade.

I find it weird that they keep bungling Disgaea characters when they got them right with Makai Kingdom.

That's because you were watching DSP

SYNERGY

Nothing wrong with sardines, they're an excellent source of omega 3.

We need a Disgaea that takes place in Celestia

I think the series suffers greatly from the lack of a permadeath mode.

>Valvatorez drops the sardine meme around the point where they need to begin overthrowing the corrupternment by having him scare "Vulcanis" once, and thus drinks her blood, leading to comical shenanigans with him drinking blood like an addict on rebound
>Fenrich makes more references to the moon rather than just bringing it up once around the end of the game
>Desco is attached to Valvatorez's behavior and emulates him at every turn, doing relatively cute things like flapping her tentacles like Val brushes his cape, revealing she doesn't like the taste of blood, and commanding a cadre of only Prinnies because that's what a Tyrant Overlord should do
>Fuuka is excessively antisocial and is a delinquent to a T, rolling her R's, constantly threatening Valvatorez and company that she'll kill them even after she knows it's not a dream (gets over that shit the SECOND she enters the party), all of her attacks are suke/ban/cho references, and she regularly looks up to Fenrich, seeing him as the true "gang" leader (a reference to his murderous/criminal past he ran away from)
>Emizel keeps his little silly wigger personage and in fact gets more advanced with it, with most of his personal skills having things like a giant Chernobog with a gold chain and shades DJing with scythes
>Vulcanis reveals she's Artina after capture, causing havoc among the demons in the party for having a literal Celestial in there, and she sides with them reluctantly, but they are more terrified of her than she is (Valvatorez excluded of course)
>Nemo doesn't look like The Angry Atheist
>Story literally doesn't even need to change, just behavior and one visual detail


There, I fixed Disgaea 4. NIS couldn't even do that.

Forget Disgaea I want a new Makai Kingdom, have my all female party.

Still bothers me that Phantom Brave got a remaster instead of this

I miss Zetta so much

But we did :^)

Personafags really are retarded, aren't they?

>Human form only appears as DLC in DD2
That was her best appearance too. At least her DLC interactions in 5 is pretty good.

>tfw no mechanic that lets you reincarnate your Prinny units into actual people for items and stuff.

I got Disgaea D2 for Christmas and those fucking freezing problems exist, fuck sake.

Try updating the game? Know someone has the localization screw up list, not sure if it also happened in the Japanese version.

That game sucked, but the sequel was 5x worse.
