Disgaea: Hour of Darkness

[Narutard]

How many people here have actually played this game? It was made some time last year, and it says that it was really popular in Japan.

If you have played it, who is your favorite character? What's your favorite part of the game?

For me my favorite character would have to be Gordon, all though I don't train him, his character and voice are just to awesome to pass by.

My favorite part of the game would have to be the chapter "Reincarnation," which is really the only sad part of the game.

It's a great game, if you haven't played it and you like RPGs, you should. The only thing I would say is that if you just go straight through the game without trying to do the special things that take longer, it's pretty short.

I have La Pucelle. It's fun, but not super wonderful. Both Disgaea and La Pucelle are sort of built around leveling, which gets boring (in that the main thing to do is level up and gain insane amounts of power).

I don't know if i would call it an RPG... Anyways I loved that game untill I spent 2 hours progressing and forgot to save. Now i hate it. Well sorta. Reincarnation was so sad...dood. The characters are about the best part of the game. Gordon is cool I love how he says "nnnnJennifer" My favorite character is Etna. She's so cute and does those awesome intros to each chapter. Etna proved you can be flat-chested and still be hot.

 

[Narutard]

LOL! Yes indeed, Gordons "nnnnJennifer" is the best.

Disgaea is on the same level as Final Fantasy Tactics, so if you call that an RPG...plus this one is a lot better. Reincarnation was sad indeed.

Keroro, everyone would hate something they spent two hours doing then losing it all. Pfft, yes Etna is teh awesome. Ah, hahahaha, remember the succubus chapter? LoL.

There, I adressed all of what you said in sentences that would make my English teacher cry.

I been thinking about getting this game but the stuff on the back of the box did not impress me...is it worth spending money on?

The things on the back of the box really put me off too, but don't let that stop you. The game is really hilarious and it has a good plotline. The gameplay is good too, but it will take awhile to get used to moving the characters around. Almost all of it is voiced over and that's a nice touch. I would defintely say get the game, especially if you are impressed by big nimbers.

Yes........220 hours of my life spent into that game

It's a wonderful game, and you can go beyond level 100 for a change (I've got 4 level 2500+ characters ) I highly reccommend it if you like games like FFT and Tactics Ogre.

 

[Narutard]

2500, wowee. How did you get that high of levels?

LoL, the highest level you can go to 99,999

 

[skysthelimit]

2500, wowee. How did you get that high of levels?

First you have to have high level Statisticians and Gladiators on all your fighters(so you get max experience and attack power), and then go to the third level of the Cave of Ordeal and keep using Wing Slayer. This is the best level because all the squares give Exp + 100% and there are 9 enemies in a 3 x 3 square; perfect for Wing Slayer. I level up about 50 levels everytime I beat it (which takes me 15 seconds with my attack power). That's how I get so high. Then.....transmigrate back to level 1, apply all your stats to attack, and do it again. Etna has 250,000 attack power for me right now

It's like FFT with more emphasis on simple destruction and power set-ups rather than tactical annhiliation and stragical preparation.

Sounds like Front mission 3 I have had that game years, beaten it often but still I play it to get all those extra Pilot skills that I dont have and see if I can get everyone up to the Level s on their weapons. THe other game I liked was Grandia (the original) had some bizzare mini games in it....like swabbing the deck!!

 

[The-Doctor]

Went and bought it today...looks good so far...not quite got the hang of it...more practise I guess!

 

[bobbichan]

I love this game. Flonne is my favorite. I just have this thing for cute and bubbly characters. =3

I'm almost at the end of the game, but I need to level up a lot. Meh... I just haven't found the time to do so lately.

 

[Zome]

The game did take awhile to get used to but after I got used to everything I loved it. My favorite character Flonne. Just how she was so gullible kind of made me laugh. I also thought the ending was pretty good, and the plot wasn't that bad either.
