then why you post disgaea?

i see what you did here

oh shit can't unsee!

>>7631979
kinda slow there.

Fuck you.

>>7632052
>>7632008
sup OP

Hey OP, there's these things called
'vowels'. I advise that you learn their significance.

Speaking of Umineko, I can't ever think of it the same way when I realized that Ryukishi basically told his audience:

"It's pretty deep, without love you wouldn't understand it."

>>7631940
>>7632008
>>7632052
>>7632089
I don't visit /v/ so I have no idea what's the deal, OP.

>>7632129
oh, THIS.

i hope Higanbana will convince me Ryukishi isn't a faggot. at least a little bit.

>>7632129

The way he handled fan reaction to Umineko really lowered R07's stocks in my eyes. It takes some advanced immaturity and arrogance to go so far as to mock your own customers in the product you hope for them to buy. He seems to be thoroughly convinced of his own ingenuity.

>>7632140
hey OP

>>7632464
It's actually even worse than Umineko. It's 100% shock value this time. It's basically Moaning Myrtle+bullying, rape, vomiting and shit.

Ulillillia-san got bored of Disgaea 2 a few days ago.

It is sad, but I wonder what game he will play next!

>>7633243

Did he reach 999 hours of play at least?

>>7633243
He should devote all of his time to completing Platform Masters.

>>7633248
Only 640

>>7633248
Disgaea 2 was the best Disgaea game, and she made it even lovelier.

Story-wise it might be very cliche and/or pale.
But mechanics-wise it is incredibly solid, and I argue for it having the best character development and relations in the series so far.
Too bad Disgaea 4 got fucked, it could have risen to the top. It's possible it still can, but in no way will one ever be able to think about that game and not grieve over the bastardization it became.

>>7633343

Whats the problem with Disgaea 4?

>>7632469
Fictionalized Ikuko != Tohya != Ryuukishi. Seems kind of strange to be calling someone an author avatar when she doesn't even reflect the opinions of her in-story author.

>>7633368
They killed the editing mode. No custom maps/scenarios/stories for anyone (except the Japanese).

>>7633446
No they didn't. Because of some localization issue (don't ask me what), they changed the level editor so you build levels out of a toolbox of larger pieces instead of individual cubes, but it's not like they cut the whole thing out or anything.

>>7633462
>hey changed the level editor so you build levels out of a toolbox of larger pieces instead of individual cubes
Aka killed it.
They seriously butchered it. You don't get individual cubes, rather you get huge sections of entire rooms. They have made it as unweidly so that you supposedly aren't even able to draw shapes with them.
You also can't stack blocks on top of or even next to eachother, which you could normally. They also killed off any ability write. So no character names and no map names. But more to pressingly, you can't edit descriptions anymore, making custom scenarios practically impossible.

The editing is killed. Being reduced to huge chunky "landforms" that you still don't get to do what you want with, all the while you won't be able to touch any text in the map whatsoever.
Expect, nothing interesting at all.

Maybe the Asian English/Chinese version won't have the same limitations.

>>7633529
I sure as hell hope so.

>>7633529
>Asian English
They won't get it in their own languages?

>>7633529
You mean as in a mixed language version?

>>7633553
http://www.play-asia.com/Makai_Senki_Disgaea_4_Limited_Edition_English_Chinese_language_V/paOS-13-71
-bp-49-en-70-4779.html

I think Asia releases are generally in English. The FF13 Asian release was the only version to have English text and Japanese voices.

>>7633343
>>Disgaea 2 was the best Disgaea game, and she made it even lovelier.

Pretty much agreed.

Favorite heroine in the series.

>>7632089
i haven't play disgaea2. What, is it similiar to Umineko storywise? Or you mean those two on the cover are like Battler/Beato?
Okay, he's got red hair and she's got blonde but for me that's about it

>>7633579
While there is hope for that, I get the idea that I'd have to be terribly roundabout if I want to have any hope to get the (inevitable) DLC for that version.

>>7633587
That is about it.
They are barely similair at all content wise.

>>7633585
She's also voiced by Rika

>>7633230
>The first part of Higanbana is rather cruel and grotesque, but the rest of the stories have all sorts of different atmospheres, so there are pleasant stories included too.

>>7633587
They are sort of similar, not story-wise but looks/personalities. If not for OP samefagging this could have been a topic.

And in my opinion Disgaea 1 is much better than Disgaea 2. Story, chareacters, music, atmosphere. When Lord Laharl's Hymn started playing, the one at the end, with lyrics, I was ready to start weeping.

If you're not exposed to Disgaea series, I'd suggest to start with 1.

>>7633640
that's the only one i've played

I love Disgaea 1 and 2.

I also love their main leads pretty equally. The rest of the Disgaea series, not so much.

Might as well ask this.
Concerning Disgaea, and PSP.

What are the pros/cons of CFW PSP?
What happens with official services such as, well, netplay/DLC/Internet etc?
Is it a cat&mouse game of sorts, with Sony continiously denying these services and hackers adding them back? Having the services a few months and gone a few others, ad nauseum?
Or does it simply work, or does it simply not work?

But if I have an official Disgaea 2 UMD disc for instance.
Can I have CFW, and still download DLC for my official Disgaea 2?

All in all, pros and cons with PSP CFW/Hacking?

>>7633511
>level editor not in english version
>killed it

buying a game because it has a feature the other games in the series didn't have is shit and you know it

>>7632092
I don't see any missing vowels in any of those posts. Do you have Asperger's Syndrome or just speak English as a second language?

>>7633741
You can easily find the answers you need with google. Only thing I'll spoonfeed you is that 6.39 cfw you can go on cfw then revert back to the original firmware through the game folder on the XMB.

Am I the only one here who loves Disgaea 3?

>>7633755

I liked raspberyl, if that's what you mean.

Anyone else preorder Disgaea 4? Which version you get?

>>7633755
Dat Raspberyl.

>>7633755
Nope

>>7633742
>>killed it
"It" being the Editior. The game got fucked due to losing it, but only the Editor got "killed".
The game will most likely still be a good game no matter how annoying the knowledge of the removal might be.
But the Editor? I can't see that turning out to be anything decent anymore.

You should try Makai Kingdom when it will come out for the PSP
It's better than Disgaea
>>7633755
No.

Wait, i am playing Disgaea 3 now (around the sixth chapter) and i really like Mao. That chapter where he was asking everyone about love cracked me up. And the BABUU part.
That damn "hero" get in my nerves and the princess is awwright. But Beryl and her sidekicks are cute.

>>7633975
>That chapter where he was asking everyone about love
I don't remember that
Mao is okay, but he is no Zetta/Gig

Disgaea thread? Ok.

Can't play Disgaea 3 anymore as my PS3 broke.
The XMB screen works fine, can also watch downloaded movies (avi etc).
Can no longer, launch a single game however, the screen just turns black. As for "Blueray laser" being broken or anything, can't play stuff from the HDD either.
Two exceptions though, but if I try to access the XMB screen from within, everything freezes as well. And if I quit the games, it returns to black screen just as if any of the other games that doesn't work were to have been launched.

Quite troublesome.
Do I have to copy/backup everything, reformat/system restore, before I can play the game again? Bought DLC I never got to use because I hadn't finished the game yet and everything.

Hey, I liked all three of the Disgaea games.

Why is 4 supposed to have something wrong with it?

>>7633999
They teased us with an amazing and in depth game editor.
Then they removed it now when it is close to release.

>>7633999
Sony didn't want us to have fun.
Probably because of LBP

>>7634005
>they removed it now
what?! shit, I missed this.

>>7634005
That would be betrayal and bullshitting, not game ruining.

Buy both the japanese and english version if you want the map editor so much.

>>7634005
Don't worry, it'll be in Disgaea 5.

On the PS4.

They'll probably add it on as downloadable content.

Why did they remove ronins with S in axe mastery? I got mine to level 3500 and then my memcard died.

>>7634037
uh, pal, why you want to give an axe to a ronin?

>>7634057
Because it's awesome.

>>7634101
oh, it's legit then.

>>7633741
There is basically no downside. Now go get it.

By the way, Phantom Brave is on PSP too, now with even more added content. Since I didn't play Wii version, I started with Another Marona immediately. While rather hard, having acquired advanced tactics let me do it without great troubles and game overs. Also, you get somewhat overpowered character, even if you have to grind them from level 1. Also, the AI seems to mostly ignore Marona in story battles and go for the phantoms instead. In the battle against Sprout and an invincible enemy, when I got in a situation where I couldn't damage Sprout at all, I won by throwing the invincible enemy at him an running away like a little girl.

Posting one of my few Marona images. I remember someone said that the artist who draws her is the only one who really does it decently.

>>7634315
>posting image
>no image

Flonne is the best Disgaea.

>>7634323
I had to refresh the page and forgot to re-include it.

>>7634345
yay, Marona!

>>7633755
You're not alone. Disgaea 3 had charm.

>>7634345
Might as well post more Marona.

By the way, N1 games are much, much better in portable versions, and not only for the extra modes/characters since they're ports, but due to the fact that they're huge timesinks, and the ability to play for a bit and then put the console to sleep, or grind for a while on a train or a bus is a big plus. Hunting for a divine sword was pretty time-consuming on the PS2, and a dungeon run has to be done in one go, which is a lot more convenient this way.

>>7634521
On a side note, everyone calling Ash a pedo in Another Marona was priceless.

Speaking of phantoms, it is never really explained what they actually are, right? They seems to be something like a soul, but Ash is not completely dead, apparently. Then again, I have yet to play the Hermuda Triangle part.

>>7633446
>>7633462
>>7633511
The editing mode was gimped because they can't moderate it. Sony won't allow an editing system to go unmoderated because there will be dick maps and other obscene things everywhere.

It does suck, yes, but if you were playing Disgaea for the map editor you were doing it wrong anyway.

>>7634551
But a mode that gives you infinite possibilities in a game like Disgaea would be pure awesome. In maps for a SRPG, creativity is everything, and players could be able to play that game too. Heck, I just came to know D4 would have a map editor, and I'm a bit sad too. I wonder if I can make my own grinding maps.

>>7632464
you do realize the first chapter of that novel is about a elementary school girl getting raped right?

The best NIS.

>>7634988
Somehow, I didn't really like that cow too much. She's a bit too much on the 'I don't care about you' side. But given that that whole game is pretty grimdark...

How did the level editor work with grinding maps anyway? Could you just add in as many exp gain geopanels as you want?

>>7635537
>Could you just add in as many exp gain geopanels as you want?
I always thought it sounded fishy as well, but I guess you could.
Don't know if you have to unlock features though.

>>7634988

>>7634384
Disgaea 3 didn't have Nekomata outside of DLC. So disappointing. At least there's Salvatore to make up for it.

You know it

What are the differences between Soul Nomad on the PS2 and PSP respectively?
Is it a waste to play it on the PS2?

Sort of, almost regretted playing the PS2 version of Disgaea 2 when they announced the port which had additional features and content.

>>7636563
The difference is that there is no Soul Nomad PSP

>>7636575
Yet. I mean, it does sound like an easy cash-in.

people played soul nomad!

ask a former NIS America tester anything!

>No one posting one of the best, if nor the best NIS girl that is Pram

I am disappointed.

Laharl, Marona, Hanako, Pram, Neptune and even Ai from Aria are voiced by the same person? Holy shit.

>>7638548
She also do eroge you know.

>>7638562
What's the most recent eroge she's done? She voiced eroge a lot earlier in her career, but not so much nowadays.

Oh yeah she was Rino in Promia too.
Both are great roles

>>7636550
I am still outraged by that. Those chiseling bastards at NIS had better not do it again.

>>7636550
She's worth the dollar. I paid for the Adell n Rosy special pack with nekos added on. Made end of game easy on my first run through.

I really liked this game. It felt like the RPGs of early 90s.

>>7641111
They will do it again, with the kunoichi this time

>>7641179
As long as my Ronin still there I don't care.

I don't know why I keep buying Disgaea games and their spinoffs, I never have time to play them.

>>7642650
Can you spot the Asagi

>>7642821
You could say she's a paradigm, even a model.

>>7646571
Looks like someone used Dimension Slash.

Female Warrior and Ronin from D1 are mai waifus

>Making god-character in D1
>Realize I can already one-shot the strongest boss in the game
>What's the fucking point

>>7648989
Can you kill Prinny Bael with all Higher Level bills passed?

>>7649039
what level is that?

>>7649042
9999. If he can oneshot that, he already has a god character.

>>7648989
It's a bit sad that the strongest unit in D1 is a generic. If monster weapons didn't suck so much, atleast Rozalin and Zetta would have better stats in the DS remake.

OP here

why the fuck you guys started a disgaea thread?

>>7649284
well Marisa, this is the confirmation that images are stronger than words.
now let's have a beer and forget about this stuff

I love Pram, she's easily my favorite.

Next month DLC for D4 better have Pram in it.

>>7649333
They better not give her that shitty evility again

>>7649275
I used monsters anyway, just because I liked them.

Garchomp, bitches

>>7649345
That and hopefully better skills that are visually awesome, fit for a strong maou.

I'm very hot for Pram, but there's very little of her out there

>>7649333
She pretty popular right? I wouldn't be too worried.

Pleinair is mine,maggots.

At the 25th,she's mine.

Am I the only one who thought that when the Rounin in HoD used Winged Slayer (or a majority of their moves), they would say something sounding like "Pizza!"

Hehe, new portrait for Gig, they re-used his Soul Nomad portrait for D3.

>>7649459
Nope.Gig.jpg

Long neck is long.

I wish there was more Celestial Host art. She's by far my favorite class.

I'd love to have consensual sex with her in the missionary position while she lies there like a corpse, staring at me coldly and telling me to repent.

Very. It has to be next month since out of all the top 10, Pram, Marona, and Ash are the only ones left who hasn't been released yet.

>>7649505
She is hot.

This thread made me play this game again. Dammit.

How good are the new Disgaea games? From 3?

>>7650071
3 is disputably the weakest, at least story and characterwise. I find it the most enjoyable in terms of gameplay, though.

>>7650078
I agree with this, though I'd still call the story in D3 good. D1 and D2 were really just hard acts to follow, so to speak.

fucking brilliant

All PSPs can be hacked now? With no downsides and equal functionality?

So, I can just follow the instructions on the project page for installaiton, run it on 6.39?
And finally play Milky Holmes, among other things, with no downsides? Or even risks?

I thought the failure was not getting an old enough PSP, but it can do everything the old ones can now, just as good? Feels like I shouldn't have given up on it.

>>7652604
I didn't really keep up with things, but yeah, I have official 6.35, all you need is to run the homewbrew enabler, psp reboots, run iso loader and you're set to go. I hear the iso loader is less compatible than a proper cfw, but so far all the /jp/ games I tried on it worked.

>>7652688
>less compatible than a proper cfw
You mean I don't have to flash the firmware somehow?

>>7652731
I mean that some games don't seem to run on the iso loader, while a cfw can run most of them as far as I know.
The homebrew enabler+iso loader is easy as fuck to use, you just copy the folder into your official fw psp and run the first, then the second. Bam, you can play isos on official firmware.

>>7652753
>on official firmware.
I thought this only worked on PSP-1000, and stopped working with PSP-2000 and up.
I guess know even less than I thought I did.

Are there specific instructions on how to load custom firmware? I recently picked up a PSP-Go and I was looking to hack it, but the websites I've gone to have some difficult instructions.

This is still a Disgaea thread isn't it?

>>7653315
I don't know why we're having TWO psp threads on /jp/ today, but, from the other one:
