Disgaea PC [coming February 2016]
- Thread starter MUnited83
- Start date
Just teach healing spells to your sorcerer or main characters using the master/pupil system.
I remember leveling Flonne till she learned Holy Arrows without doing any of that. Holy cow that was not fun. Much prefer the new system that gives them exp for using abilities.

I honestly never thought this would come to PC, but i'm hella buying it day 1
While Disgaea is a very self-aware franchise, I felt 3 relied wa-a-a-ay too heavily on school tropes and became outright annoying.
Yeah no, they really don't. Also it's NIS we're talking about, they don't understand the concept of "cheap".
If it's more than 10$, I'm out
They do. It's also NIS America the one handling the distribution for PC. Let's see what happens.

14.99 dollars with a 9.99 dollars price at launch sounds like the fair price imo. And it would definitely break the 100k bar easily at this price imo.
Which would produce pretty great revenue for them.

I need D2 on PC then, since I already own 2 versions of the first game.
Ya'll betta purchase dis 10fold if yu want dat Disgaea series on PC! PS4/PC is such a great thing. I have a PS4 for BloodBorne, Uncharted, Until Dawn, and I have PC for well anything I don't want to play on consoles ahahaha.

yeah, i know, but they can redraw those... I mean after playing the newest disgaeas, the sprites are a big change on visual quality... i mean look at this:
The sprites in disgaea are like 30*50 pixels
But anyway, I already replayed the game a lot to dip again on PC... Updated sprites maybe make me replay it again but a simple port doesnt bring anything new to the table.

Would pay full price for FFT and Tactics Ogre. Just saying...
Great news and all but kinda hoped they went with D4 since that's when it started with HD sprites and D1 is pretty damn old (it's been on bunch of systems) and a bit outdated in it's gameplay compared to it's sequels. Anyways hope it does well enough that it gets to the later sequels.

This will probably be one of the first mods for it if it's simple enough to crack.

Nice! Definitely getting this.

The new sprites just have so much detail when I play the game, a lot of my friends who aren't familiar with the Disgaea series are amazed by the hand drawn art when I'm playing Disgaea 5 on the big screen. These are COD and Destiny players by the way who have never touched a JRPG before ;_;.
in nippon ichi's fiscal report year ending 2015, they mentioned that they would start supporting steam: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1046782
welp, this is it. it's more than testing the waters too. it's more of an initiative to get the company on steam, so if there are other games that can be ported, they'll surely do it (firefly diary seems like a logical choice bcause it was already listed and everything). they have a pretty good backlog too, with not only disgaea, but others on the ps2 like soul nomad, la pucelle, phantom brave, and makai kingdom. if this is successful enough, i wonder if they'd even localize way older stuff like the latter two marl kingdom games.

I like both equally. I just view them as different artstyles and both look greatyeah, i know, but they can redraw those... I mean after playing the newest disgaeas, the sprites are a big change on visual quality... i mean look at this:

They could, but I'm guessing they want to keep the cost of porting (and ultimately the retail price) of a 13 year old game low.
Looking at the screenshots, the first thing this needs is xbrz filtering on the sprites. Or at least bicubic upsampling for those who hate filters
Yeah, I think I'd prefer unfiltered for the sprites.

Now they're coming to their senses!
Makai Kingdom next!
Makai Kingdom next!
I will not be expecting them to redo the games sprites and the images on the first page look like there's a filter that can probably be disabled. The maps themselves look crisp though. I'd gladly lay down 29.99 for this, but I'm hoping for 15 or 20 because of the game being so old and the sales that will be lost from people who don't care to spend that kind of money on a good game.
