About to start Disgaea 2 for the 3rd time, hoping I have enough patience to get through the entire postgame this time instead of dropping it right after the story mode. Fuck pirates, fuck felonies, fuck cellphones, fuck dark world stage unlock conditions , etc.
I just finished the main story of Disgaea 2. The side characters were stronger but I felt the main duo didn't have enough development. The game felt much easier than the first game, although I was quite a bit underleveled when playing first. Also, I miss my female brawlers.

>>3847703 I wanted to add another thing. Since, I was playing with Japanese audio, I could tell the localization was faithful for the most part, except when it came to Etna. What's the deal with the Beauty Queen stuff?
>>3847674(OP) I'm going to start Disgaea 2 for the first time once I 100% Disgaea 1. The only hard achievements remaining are the 10 million damage and hyperdrive ones which I'm not really looking forwards to since it's just time consuming. My majin easily does 2 million damage at this point though so I just need to level him to another 3 million damage then use braveheart.

>>3847708 I think they just sort of let her VA do whatever she wants. She really likes her roll.
I finished my item world run for my trap, this was honestly not worth the effort for 1 item. Kill bonus is so fucking slow to get up. I did everything I could, 20 stars, invader path, kill everything even in mystery rooms which just adds more floors to grind. All that shit and still get like 12+ kill bonus every 10 floors + mystery room floors.
>>3848170 The original game was a comfy self contained story, even the alternate Another Marona arc as well. For some god awful reason they seem to be over-explaining and introducing an entire system about how phantoms work and how they can sometimes just magically do whatever they want now. No need to confine you can just possess someone or something lol. Every """"phantom"""" in this game is no different from a fucking living being. I already thought the story was bad enough just judging from the first chapter, making Ash look like a retard. Theres no real mystery either, the main villian is painfully obvious and i know for sure theyre going to bring back the sulphur somehow. Throw in extra party members because why not disgaea did it hahaha. the writers are surely not the same from the first game right? and then i get to Ch8 where they introduce this "LOST" shit. If you"have no purpose" for lingering as a phantom too long or some bullshit they turn into a monster because...(???) im this close to just dropping it i hate this fanfic tier game so much. at least some of the designs are cute despite the 3d downgrade.

>>3848033 honestly, she does it pretty well so I'm not that hung up on it
>>3848211 I dont hate it entirely but it makes all the games look even more low budget, with the animations as well. Ash for example looks is ridiculous

>>3848451 I think they should make the heads smaller atleast. Like enough where its not so weird. Other than that the series doesn't suffer really from being 3d, just that NIS couldn't budget their money wisely.

>>3848549 It's the proportions. They're like 2.5 heads tall. They could have made them like Disgaea's that are like 4 heads tall instead, although I get why they did that. It's because the game is more zoomed out than Disgaea, but still.

>>3848660 wait I'm in the wrong dimension it's just a hand waver here uh I'm retarded don't mind me
>>3848641 It's not just the body, though--The face shape is distinctly baby-ish. I tried to illustrate it somewhat.
For example, Blue Archive's chibis have similar body proportions, but their more rounded faces work a lot better for making the characters look chibi without looking like child versions of themselves.
>>3848668 Oh yeah thats a great example , it feels a little unfair because i think BA has the best chibis ive seen but thats exactly what i was thinking regarding NIS 3d models dont look as "chibi" anymore. Reusing the base model shape for 90% of the humans really shows
Here is your Disgaea musou, anon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeiijXYpkrM
And also, new Yomowari trailer for which I am more excited personally https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3kk4YQgskw

>>3848799 whoever handled and approved the audio mixing of the trailer should get sacked, but I'm looking forward to more animations like with that felynn near the end
>>3848799 ever since the /nisg/ threads on vg ive always wanted a disgaea musuo it seems like the perfect series for it. even if im not sure if its set in the same universe.
>>3848799 Ehhh, musou Disgaea isn't really a genre I really wanted from the series but I guess its a good excuse to finally have fully playable 3d Disgaea characters that isn't chibi 3D. 2nd game seems interesting.

>>3848968 no I think it was trying to autodub, I forgot that existed. Audio mixing no longer liquid dogshit. going to see if I can pin down how to turn it off by default, thanks
>>3848799 Nippon Ichi is too incompetent to turn off autodub. Hell, their cheap ass is probably happy they don't need to pay English dubber. Fuck NIS.

>>3849425 It's just the old cat girl that's been in every Disgaea anon.

>>3849433 Not many people are fans of the transition to 3D, personally I think it's not THAT bad but I do wish it'd be closer to the original art style of the 2D games.
>>3849477 The model's forearms and calves are so skinny compared to that concept art. Their hands and feet are normal human-sized too, seems like they should be a lot larger.
>>3849433 Nothing wrong with big cat tits >>3849477 >>3849533 i cant remember but i feel like nekomatas have not been toned or muscular since disgaea 4. or the 3D psyop finally got to me
>>3849433 >>3849477 >>3849533 >>3849581 Succubi used to be thicc too Harada's artstyle just changed over time and now everyone has lanky proportions It's dumb for the kitcats though since they're supposed to be tomboy martial artists and muscular catgirls is a unique character concept compared to most other catgirls which are just extra soft and feminine
>>3849695 (Me) >muscular catgirls is a unique character concept Well not really unique since as another anon mentioned earlier the design was probably inspired by Felicia from Darkstalkers and I guess the early 2000s was during the domestication process of fictional catgirls so they were still some Amazonian ones and not all moe
>>3848930 I noticed there's groups of the same enemy that's big and small. I wonder if giant magichange will be in this game.
>>3849425 Even back in 6th gen, Japanese knew we weren't getting more Darkstalkers. They had to throw fans a bone somehow.

How does everyone feel about "dood" and "-ssu" here? I have no strong feelings but I heard "dood" first, and depending on the game I turn voice volume to zero.

>>3850379 It's never really bothered me I suppose, neither back when I used the English VAs or now with the Japanese ones
>>3850379 I like both and "dood" is iconic in its own way, but overall the Japanese prinnies' voices are less grating so I like them better. Compare: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wFFLKvXyQ4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3hJn00H-z0
>>3850379 My opinion is that it's one of those things that are just a bitch to translate so I'm okay with the translators going for "dood", since as far as I'm aware, the "ssu" thing is a shortened "desu" and it's associated with a boorish way of speaking, not downright vulgar but not exactly proper either. I'm cool with it, and I find it make the Prinnies more endearing.
