I thank my younger self everyday when I remember buying the Disgaea triple collection especially since d2 and 3 still haven't been re-released after all this time
Your video on what went wrong with Disgaea 6 got me into the series. I literally woke up to it having auto played, and I went back to the beginning to see what it was about, and you did the best sell of a series I've ever seen, for 1 through 5 of course. Now im hooked. This is your fault. But seriously, where has this game series been all my life? It's literally everything I've been looking for, and it's been right under my nose. Thanks man, you're doing god work.
"D2" is such a strange entry to me. Mainly in that despite getting the platinum for it, it feels like the one entry in the series that I barely understand. For instance, I mostly ignored Rasetsu since I wasn't really understanding some aspects of it. Did only a couple reincarnations of that, since it was recommended, before moving on. I kind of just did whatever until it seemed like I had a character strong enough and just finished everything else from there, cheesing the 4 Pringer Z battle with the Broken Cellphone and Lollipop. Nowhere near having optimal innocents, equipment, reincarnations, aptitudes, etc. Honestly, I have no idea how I managed to actually get the platinum when I was so underprepared. Anyway, if nothing else, I do wish the Book weapon type would get reintroduced. Sure, it wasn't anything special and regular elemental spells ultimately were just better...but it was something new and gave Int-based skills more variety. Really, the series is long overdue for more weapon types in general. That and maybe reintroducing the Monster Mounting mechanic as well. Sure, it mostly was just a magichange replacement but it still had some unique aspects. Like how the movement stat is based on the mounted monster unit or how they act as an HP shield for their rider. Just keep both it and magichange for more variety and nutty tactics. Oh well, we've got nether now at this point. 17:23 ("...and thankfully, 'Disgaea D2' retains the Cheat Shop") Incredibly minor nitpick that doesn't ultimately matter...but "D2" was where the Cheat Shop originated from. It was retroactively added into all versions of "4" after the original, similar to how magichange originated from "3" but was added into future versions of "2".
D2 is so much fun but I'm scared of playing it on my PS3. It has overheating issues, people even meme that using fire spells makes your PS3 overheat but it's somewhat true. I bought the physical version a decade ago and whenever I'd take the disc out after playing and my PS3 would be really hot, like an unsafe amount of hot.
@@BAIGAMING I had never heard this before about the game but I did definitely notice my PS3 getting hot which worried me as well. thankfully it’s still going strong. should probably get a USB to back up my saves though…
Iirc The issue is one of the Fire spells, I THINK Omega Fire but it's been years, could be wrong, starts a duplicate loading of its animation that hangs. Repeat usage creates extra instances of the duplicate load attempt, and they aren't ever terminated by the game. I don't remember if it was ever fixed, but given that the final game has some crash to dashboard bugs still there, I assume it is. The "fix" is every so often, to do a hard reset of the console, to terminate the hanging loads, and avoid using fire spells to grind. (Notably, the grind stage has guys weak to fire, sooooo... use Star I guess?)

WE GOT ANOTHER ONE
for real though thank you so much, that makes my day to hear
Yay disgaea d2 guide, finally a good video guide for this game
the only video of this game XD
Omfg it's finally time to wait for the disgaea 5 video😂
Bro, I love your channel so much, dood. Your disgaea videos are amazing
We're so back
this and 3 are STILL my most fav disgaea games. 3 was actually my first then 4 d2, 2 and 1 then 5 n foward
man... D2 cooked with some of its options why none of them got carried over to other games?
DD2 is insanely underrated. maybe one of the most enjoyable grinds, and an insanely fun baal fight
Good video is disgaea 5 next
Waiting for D5 100% guide :D
this comment was made for the algorithim. (we need more games like Disgaea 2 😢)
Should be noted that its on PS+ cloud streaming so you can play it on ps5, and soon, the ps portal

What a great video for a game that i can´t play
Yay! A guide for a game I cannot play!
Brother... Emulators :)
@ My brother in Christ…
There is not a single competent PS3 Emulator available.
And I’m willing to bet that the complexity of PS3 is one of the reasons D2 haven’t been ported to other platform.
Good Video
disgaea d2 seems grindier than disgaea 2, and i fear the idea of a pc release now
because i dont trust myself not to shoot for baal
Technically it got ported to PS4/5 and PC thanks to PSplus making it playable through cloud streaming
If only you could buy rank 39 LoC items in D5...
It would make my life easier
(So im guessing D5 guide is in the future?🤔)
@@a1goldenrunner absolutely! it’ll probably be a while but that’ll be the next disgaea guide
@@MagsIsGaming looking forward to it! 🐧💙
You keep saying 9x9 for the 3x3 spells. Love the guide though.
the only game on ps3
Well, time to buy a PS3 i guess
