Friend just lent me this, what am I in for? I haven’t played the series before, and I suck at strategy games. Are there any tips I should know beforehand to help make up for my mental handicap?

If you play it. Just play it all the way through for the story. If you enjoy it then you can grind and do all that shit. Just dont get into grinding before you beat the game

Can I grind to make the story easier? You might be underestimating just how much of a brainlet I really am when it comes to strategy

Yea a dew levels i did if i had trouble. Just try not to care about reaching lvl 100 and shit because it will just burn you out and mechanics are always opening up everytime you go farther in story. So beating it will unlock everything and he grinding will actually be fun

Focus on keeping your team smaller as it'll be easier to keep their equipment up to date and their levels are a good range.

How long should the story take?

a jrpg length

If you really feel a lack of power grind 10 level on your weapon or armor (depend on which you feel you lack), You'll get other ressources along and an item that you won't have to replace for 1-2 chapter.

One game away from best girl

>scummier and scummier dlc practices creep into the series
>d5's entire post game as dlc
>d6 never ever
>they couldn't even properly kill it with gacha because the devs were so incompetent
What the fuck did the series do to deserve this?

Units that can thrown and move far are useful even if you don't level them.

3, 4, D2 PC when?

They see the series as their cash cow so they proceeded to try to milk it for all its worth.

>low level Masked Heroes with Chicken Heart and 3 vernier thrusters in rank 40 items
Gotta go further

This series has the best lolis, Disgaea 6 needs to hurry the fuck up

Wait, there is a post-game?

>What am I for?
Sassy penguins

5 had a little bit of post game, but the process of gathering characters from other games and the skit scenes before and after the fights were taken out and sold as dlc you could do at any point in the game with the level adjusted.

>what am I in for
A lot of nut-busting to Artina

do you fug the pengwings?

>d5's entire post game as dlc
I got the switch version all the DLC was included, its pretty based desu.

Yeah but you had to buy a switch to play it so it evens out

Gameplay is definately best in 5 Complete. I just wished grinding for stats didnt involve just using one character on one map using one move.

It's also on PC

>d5's entire post game as dlc
a non issue when the complete version on Switch/PC is even cheaper than the base version on PS4.

the best game on the series, although it would be better if you could play the vita version

Ok,i though they added something live the tyrant DLC in Disgaea 4.

Is Disgaea 1 Complete worth getting over Disgaea 1 PC?

>It's okay because it came bundled with the complete version
That's not the point, if there's ever a d6 they'll do exactly the same thing at launch

I mean they've done the same thing with every game in the series so far.

There's both postgame and DLC content.

There's a good 5+ hours worth of actual postgame at least after you beat the end boss. It'll take at least 10-20+ hours to do it all because the grind is there but it's much less of a slog than previous games.

Not to the same extent as 5, the game felt empty after the story. It didn't even have Laharl, Etna or Flonne in it.

Its mostly same game but with HD sprites, though complete did raise the statistician innocent limit to 900, so you can powerlevel faster and I think healing gives exp now too.

On the switch? It has some gameplay changes that I'm not actually sure have made it into the PC version, as well as replacing all the sprites with ones from later games

In the original, only way to get XP is killing something, which makes it specifically very hard to level healers if you don't realize there are ways to transfer elemental spells from other classes on to them (master/student early game, transmigrate late game)
Being able to get XP from healing in the switch version isn't a huge deal, because the whole point was that you would learn the whole master/student thing to get offensive magic on your healer anyways.

Desco a shit.

There's always hope for her return in another NIS series if Disgaea gets trapped in mobile hell.

I think the level by healing thing is a bit of a noob trap, not only is it slow but with that S rank staff mastery it really is just a massive waste to have them and not be blasting shit every turn you don't need to heal

It's funny because it was garbage outside of 5, where you got the 200% bonus healing exp utility and then it was absolutely broken if you were treating the story mode as a jrpg instead of a grindfest. Christo is stupidly good at it and will massively outlevel your damage dealers without taking kill exp.

only thing shit here is your taste

Is there a better way of grinding in D5 other than Asagi farming? This shit is getting pretty bad once i started to reach 14 stars and my Sage is like 10m stats higher than the rest of my units.

You don't grind levels with Asagi, you grind the shards. You still use the Ordeals stage with maxed statisticians to get to 9999

Fuck i meant to say maxing out stats. The shards literally give nothing and I just feel like there are better ways to increase stats.

You've probably already got a guide but make sure you have a megaphone on your Sage so you're getting the captures to turn them into extracts and you're using the Maid evility to apply to items to 5 people at once. And it's not really worth doing until you can do it on a Carnage level because otherwise it just takes too long.

How grindy is the end game if one wants to do that?

Fairly. But I like the item world and it's proceedurely generated so it's not as painful as it could be. Most of the platinums done at a normal pace take maybe 30-50 hours after the story and the true end game boss maybe another 10 after that, if you know what you're doing

Its not too bad until you get to Baal. That is when you'll be doing the real heavy grinding.
