Speaking of D3V, is there a quick way through the story levels? Early grinding spots, etc? I liked D3 and all, but I don't really want to spend too much time on the story stuff, I just wanna wreck face with Gig and Desco. I think I'm towards the end of chapter two, judging by my trophy list.

Not really until you get to the map "Corpse Eaters" near the end of the game (I think it's in chapter 7 or 8). After you beat it once normally if you try to replay it it loads up a level grinding map with enemies that stand up exp panels.

Oh, the one with the shrooms? Yeah I think that's the main one I used on the PS3. Bollocks. Oh well, at least I'll have Champloo to help me get through this, BOOM!

Playing D3V makes me really miss D4's sprites. God drat they were good looking. On the plus side I'm nearing the good grinding map and I cleared Ch 5 which I remember as being pretty awful.

Any news about the android Disgaea games getting released in Europe/translated?

I emailed whatever mob was supporting that game, as it was on my SGS2's Samsung Store, but wouldn't ever run after installation because of my region (Australia). They said it'd be available for everyone shortly.

That was 18 months ago. Yeah.

The stages and enemy placements, platforms etc seemed to lose the very controlled placement and precision that the original had. The humour fell a bit flat (haha, get it, flat, just like 90% of NISA's jokes around that time) too, but that may have gotten better as the game went on.

Also I loved the music in the first game (Tower of Ice and First Impression especially) so much that I got all the drat records and did a soundtrack rip of it (hell if you see it around and all the tracks are about 3 minutes long, that was me), but I don't remember anything at all about Prinny 2's music.

I chucked two sets of shoes and an accelerator on Gig. Add in that he's considered a flying type and he somehow has way more ATK than Mao or Adell at roughly the same level and Item World becomes fairly straightforward. So far, anyway, I haven't gotten terribly deep into post-game (still doing Parallel Worlder stuff to get the DLC characters).

In D4 is there any way to delete the game update data and revert to 1.00 without deleting your save data? I realize the save game will be unplayable until I reupdate.

I see a huge file under the game data utility menu, and then my two saves under the save data utility menu. If I just delete the one under game data utility then the save games will still be there, right?


Yeah, the only games that stores sava data in Game Data are LBP1/2 and FFXIII-2, I believe. Even then XIII-2's is just a profile, the actual save is in Save Data.

What's the easiest way to get Statisticians in D3V anyway? For reference, I have Gig, Adell and Mao at about 1000, Rozalin at 800 or so. As for post game, I got up to Salvatore then started doing the side-stories to get the DLC characters.

You have to reverse pirate items until you find a Statistician. Then you'll have to pull off the Puppy Paw Stick glitch in the class world in order to duplicate innocents inside weapons or armor. Don't worry, they didn't mess with that. In fact, if you have a high Honor Quotient, stealing with the PPS is much easier.

Hm. Is there a dumbass guide to Reverse Pirating? You get that by beating a pirate group, right? I haven't come across any yet. And uh, where do you get the PPS, again?

I just found out in D3 Vita you can max out an item, regardless of rarity, just by killing the item god over and over again. You have to save up a lot of gency exits though.

How geopanel heavy are the maps in D3 btw? Almost through 2 now, and I'm not huge fan of how much more geopanel puzzle maps there seems to be in dark hero days compared to the first game.

Sardines was also (generally speaking) limited to the Next Episode dialogue. He mentions it a few times during the normal story stuff, but not overwhelmingly so.

Though, I totally get why people got sick of it.
