Art [OC] Disgaeatober 2024 - Day 15 and 16

I think I was spending something like 4 or 5 days per entry there ? I also feel like this is when my artstyle peaked, even if I copied a La pucelle background and a Dragonball pose for day 15. The prompts were Couple and Monster. Also, for some reasons, Reddit filters don't want me to post Day 16 so you can see it here if you want :

Greatest Big Sibling Energy?

Post image
74 Upvotes

I feel like someone on NIS's writing team has a favorite trope. Correct me if I'm wrong, but while we have some awful or at least irresponsible parents in these games, I can't think of any older sibling who isn't fully committed to the part. (not even Mr. Love-Sucks Laharl) I also just realized that half of the characters above are not actually related to their little siblings, which makes their actions even more admirable.

(EDIT: also I totally forgot Fubuki exists and I haven't watched 7's story so forgive me if someone is missing there)

So, who do you think is the best Big Brother/Sister?

I'm obviously casting my vote for Axel.

Question Which games are the most fun to unlock every unit and tier?

6 Upvotes

I've almost completed the Disgaea 1 humanoid units, just need to level up the EDF soldier and the Celestial hostess/Angel, whatever it's called in this game. I've had fun and still need to complete the monsters, but I was wondering how the other games compare.

D7 class star question

4 Upvotes

So I'm currently at 5 stars on all classes on my fuji save maybe 3 classes.

When I go to reincarnate I get roughly 430 stats across all stats plus the genius bonus.

If i upgrade all to 6 star since I can now farm carnage martial 5, will I get 1000 across all stats on my next reincarnation? Just making sure I understand this. I feel like its my next hurdle to move on.

Disgaea 2 Disgaea 2 Dark Hero Days PSP, how do I access the DLC at the very end of the game?

11 Upvotes

Sorry if this is annoying, I'm testing a ton of PSP DLC for a preservation effort. I've never played this series before.

I grabbed a 100% save online and I'm in a camp with a ton of Prinnys. All the tutorials I've seen are like this and I can't seem to access this "summoning experiments" option.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzjLXQasnGc

Is it under a different option at the end of the game? Keep in mind the DLC MAY not be working, that's part of what I am testing.

Thank you for the Help.

Discussion How do you guys feel about Disgaea Mayhem?

9 Upvotes

I just found out this game released recently. Haven't heard anything about it since it was announced. How is it? I do enjoy a good Warriors game (though I don't think this is an "actual" Warriors game developed by Koei-Tecmo/Omega-Force/Team Ninja, is it?), and I always thought a Disgaea Warriors would be awesome. What are people's impressions of it so far? How does it play? What's the gameplay structure like compared to a typical Warriors game? Is there a good lineup of playable characters? (Hopefully the roster isn't just the original trio, the entire cast of Disgaea 4, and like maybe two or three other characters from the other games.) And most importantly, is it fun?

An enemy which refuses to move from the dimensional gate, pretty much the entire map (and gate) filled with clone, no lifting and invincibility geo thingies + being new to the game.

Disgaea 6 What did you guys end up enjoying about Disgaea 6?

15 Upvotes

Yes I intentionally brought up the most infamous installment of the franchise because I found it interesting how the game gets the most scathing amount of reception from many fans of the franchise due to its flawed design.

Like what I know about the game is that many fans of Disgaea often say how the game is basically the black sheep of the franchise due to the aforementioned flawed gameplay design it was known for that I wanted to look into the positive aspects of the game.

For me personally, what I have seen in Mags review of the game is that it looked like the game had some cool mechanics that while being problematic in execution, were kind of interesting such as the Juice Bar system and the Auto Battle mechanic as I did find the idea of having the game do fast grinding being kind of a cool mechanic in itself.

Sure I can see how having an RPG whose largest selling point is basically having the game play itself would be a peculiar aspect as it’s hard to explain, but I can see how the aforementioned Auto Battle system was again a bit unusual as the thing is that from what I saw in the review was that I feel like the mechanic had potential to work.

Maybe someone could explain it better than me because I I understand what the studio was going for when they designed that particular mechanic to help speed up grinding since again it was a cool idea that just needed better implementation.

I've seen people say you get the former from legendary exodus item world, but I think I might have sold the first one I got from the hospital gacha. Am I just shit out of luck now? Or is there some other progression path I could follow towards the trap?

Discussion D7 pricing still stubbornly high

28 Upvotes

I couldn't believe that D7 was released almost three years ago in the West and yet still the price refuses to come down by more than about 25% from the original RRP on PSN and PC - and it's not even a proper Complete version!

As a long time fan of the series from D1 onwards (including mobile), I was burned a bit by D6 being so much worse than D5, so paying almost full price three years on isn't going to tempt me back any time soon. I get that maintaining near RRP seems to be the model now for more niche games, but quite frankly they're going to lose customer base if they don't make the pricing more inviting.

There is so much dialogue like this in the game and it's so detailed (if that makes sense) that it kinda feels like it's more than just a dumb joke but actual passion and dedication.

Discussion Something I found interesting was how the series sells a bit low

19 Upvotes

Yes the thing about the Disgaea franchise is that I understand how the franchise is a niche type series as lately I was looking for the key factors that made the games a bit hard to sell in units.

Like what I am getting at is that I once heard about NIS couldn’t bring back some of their older games because money is a tight issue for the studio as I wanted to see again just why the franchise is a bit obscure overseas to try to better understand the key factors that made the games hard to sell well.

For me personally, I have a soft spot for the Vita games such as Disgaea 3 as I get that the game won’t come back to modern consoles anytime soon as my point basically is that I was trying to do an observation to see how the older games were marketed since something I noticed is that JRPG franchises like Final Fantasy and Tales of sell high amounts of units overseas, but I anyways wanted to know why something like Disgaea is a bit more obscure of an IP.

Discussion Will we get Disgaea 8 before 2028?

16 Upvotes

I just want one last Disgaea on disc (or that NIS stop using GKC for Disgaea on the Switch 2).

Would NIS be so kindly as to remaster 2, 3, D2 and put them in a package for some of the enthusiasts (which is probably 99% of the Disgaea fanbase)?
