Phantom Brave or Disgaea 2?

| PB looks a bit more non-standard and thus interesting, but from the demo it kinda felt less polished, so I dunno. Which one did you find better, g/u/rls?


| Disgaea 2


| Both were bad.


| I have both, don't regret either but Disgaea 2 has a more forgiving difficulty


|


|


| Buy "Trails in the sky" instead.


| i prefer PB because loli. gameplay wise Disgaea makes more sense imo, but the story is less serious so PB gave more impact to me.


| >>120139 meh, TitS is a trap raising simulator + JRPG with plot that kinda progress like a pokemon game.


| >>120139
Already got it. Well, the first one, at least. Engaging story, genuinely interesting characters, wacky anime-esque shenanigans and beautiful soundtrack. But such a slog gameplay-wise. Either stupid easy and boring or stupid hard and frustrating, with no in-between. What a shame.

>trap raising simulator
Wtf. That one thing with the play doesn't count, it was for a cause.
Also don't really see the similarities to Pokemon plot progression.


| >>120388 he was a trap at the play and when they pretended to be maids. When you play devil's advocate for the 2nd time, you've become the devil. Just admit it, he's a trap at this point.

Going to town, make friends, solve problems, earn a badge, move on to other towns. It's pokemob without the pet rising


| Well, if you consider the trap as your pet, it's basically pokemon.


| >>120394
Nah, g/u/rl, he doesn't really do this of his own volition (and iirc he's kinda pissed that he has to) and it's not on a day-to-day basis. So yeah, he WAS pretty much a trap twice, but that's about it.
You're going from town to town making friends and solving problems in a lot of games really. Final Fantasy series comes to mind, especially 2 and kinda 3.
Pokemon is more about catching actual pokemon and having one constant rival anyway.


| >>120473 yes, he doesn't because you failed to raise him as a good trap. In fact he left because of your incapability in making his dream (to be a full fledged trap) comes true.

Joshua's rival is Trap Joshua. The struggle is there throughout the game, better rivalry than pokemon games.

Okay, tbh this is getting dumber by the minute, you know. I'd prefer if we'd return to the main topic of this thread.


| Disgaea 2 is one of the least interesting in the series, PB is a great game


| I still consider Disgaea 2 to be a highlight of the series, with 1, D2, and 5 being the others I enjoyed the most. Phantom Brave on the other hand... Eh, I dunno, it just never clicks with me like Disgaea does. This is a matter of personal taste really, but I say you can never go wrong with the Disgaea route.


| >>121965
Yeah, I quite liked the first Disgaea on DS but then just kinda...fell off on the earth defence hero (or something) stages and now I struggle to pick it back up because I can't remember what is what there in terms of characters and equips. Kinda fear that the same might happen here, I guess it may be true for both games though.


| >>122189 what Gordon and his team are essentiall to the story and on of the best parts


| >>122199
Yeah, it's funny and all but I switched my attention to some other game that was freshly released at the time and forgot about Disgaea for a year or so. So yeah.
