[PS2] Disgaea 2

Can someone verify if the game actually runs in hi-res, like they said it will?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The sprites are not hi-res, like they promised. Characters are now marginally more proportional, but not to the point where the felt the need to redo sprites of returning characters (Laharl, Flonne, Zetta, and everyone else have recycled sprites).

no, not high definition. just high resolution. you know, 640x480. Previous games were 320x240 and people appearantly complained that it looks crap on their 22nd century HDTV system or something, so they are supposed to up the resolution for Disgaea 2. There was some IGN article about it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Its almost a simulation than a true strategy game they keep touting these games as since the gameplay is simply you spending 400 hours honing your perfect characters and the story and music thrown with each game being less and less relevant since Disgaea. That said there is a place for these games but i wish NIS would take more time to develop something that feels new. But i understand being a small company maybe they feel the need to rush games out to continue to profit or simply they know the PS3 looms near and trying to squeeze as much money as they can before we all move on. I don't know.

I don't know but your avatar is lovely. Where is it from?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Good questions. I remember two decent stages for levelling but I don't recall their names.

One of them has two 2x2 block of enemies on 50% exp panels on the two sides of your base panel, a good place for getting the initial 100 levels or so.

The other is small block surrounded by a ring with reverse damage panels. Reverse Damage panels are awesome because your healers can do tons of damage there. I think my most levelled up characters in the game are my healers, in fact, due to this level.

Other then that, you can farm lvl 9999 nekomatas for early powerful chars.

For reincarnation, I dunno, I always try to get at least 85% stats kept, which is usually the amount of mana my fighters have by the time I unlock their next class.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
