r/Disgaea

So sorry if it was asked here before because I was noticing how divisive the gane became among Disgaea fans that I couldn’t help but wonder about the redeeming qualities it has.

For me personally, based on what I have seen in the trailers is that it was kind of cool how the game had free roaming aspects in that players could move freely in combat as don’t get me wrong in that Disgaea being turn based is nice, but I always wanted a game where I could grind like crazy while being able to move around wherever I wanted.

I got it on steam and it looks really neat, are there any patches or similar stuff i need before jumping in?

Lately, something I noticed was that the one game in the entire franchise that never got any updated rereleases whatsoever was Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness as I was curious to why it was completely skipped over.

Like what I am getting at is that I was wondering what a Complete Edition could have been like with DLC since I could see extra characters being added such as Future Hanako, but also all the DLC being free to use since I always wanted to have such an edition come out, but again it never happened.

I just wanted to ask how do I unlock land of carnage in disgaea 4 complete + it’s my first time unlocking a land of carnage in any game and I am excited

I‘ll be honest while do have Disgaea 1 and 2 I sadly don’t play them because my computer isn’t currently working right now, but I do have 4 and 5 on my Nintendo switch and I watch some gameplay videos which begs a question, why have characters in Disgaea get left behind in future games ?

I mean Laharl, Etna and Flonne stay around because they are the original trio, Pleinair and The Prinnies are the series Mascots, Adel and Rozalin are 2 main leads, Axel is one of the series most popular characters, Mao is main protagonist of 3, Raspyberyl despite not being Deuteragonist is still main heroine, Disgaea developers tend to love 4 cast the most as they often have most gang in other titles, D2 only gets Sicily and Girl Laharl as their characters, 5 only cares about Kilia, Seraphina and Usalia and Asagi is pretty much Nippon Ichi mascot as she most appearing of non Disgaea character to appear in the series.

But then we have those characters that Nippon Ichi that doesn’t bother bringing back in future titles, some of the worse offenders are Yukimaru, Taro, Hinako, Champloo, Tink and especially Fubuki, Master Big Star and the rest of Disgaea 5 cast because latter 5 only had one additional appearance each, but Fubuki, Master Big Star and rest of Disgaea 5 cast really got short end of the deal because not counting Mobile since everyone is that game, they never appeared in future games unless you count Christo being Lamington but even then it’s only 2 other games.

I know popularity is a factor but couldn’t you use lesser use characters every once in a while?

Yes I know the DLC support for the game has ended such a long time ago as lately I couldn’t help but wonder who could have made it to the roster of the game.

I know that SSBU had RPG characters from games like Final Fantasy 7 and Dragon Quest as lately I was trying to come up with some ideas on what Disgaea characters again could have made it into the roster since some I could see being included were Laharl and Adell due to their prominent nature in the franchise since they always show up in the mainline Disgaea games.

So basically a quick bit of backstory is that I wanted to do an observation on the kind of RPGS that offer obscene amounts of level grinding because I was recently reading an article about a game called Mugen Souls that allowed players to build up their character in the most wild ways kind of like Disgaea.

But for Disgaea in particular, I was interested in seeing what the highest cap for the stats is such as Intelligence and HP since I would like to start off with Disgaea 3 since I am about to finish the Ultimus Item World so that I can eventually get the best fist weapon in the Vita version.

Now I am just curious on how exactly stat caps work in the older games since I know that units can go to say 20 million HP with Dieticians, but what I don't know is just how far the stats go since I am trying to figure out again just how far the HP meter goes for units in the older games since I would like to go for the most obscene amount of stats for my mages such as Rozalin and Sapphire for instance.

I keep trying to pass this bill but it seems impossible, everything i look up online says that bribing the senators is suppose to carry over but if i bribe them i never see them again or if i see them again theyre still hated even tho i got them out of hated before. ive tried backing out and going back with a new set of items but then it just changes whos in there. i cant bribe enough with one inventory ever.
