Disgaea D2

[varkias]

I'm probably late to the party but I just found out a true sequel is coming out for the original Disgaea.  As a huge strategy rpg fan this is a must have for me.  I felt the original just had so much character and plenty of LoL moments.  When I get home I need to get the limited edition ordered!

I found out too late to get the one with the included strategy guide, but it's a lot for me to drop anyway considering that I haven't played much more than a few hours of the first one (despite owning several titles in the franchise).

Still a pretty sweet looking LE, though.

Where's Disgaeaniac?  He'd love to talk more about this game, I'm sure

My ears were ringing

@Deso/Varkias -

Not like odds are that good or anything -but- there's a link in a (pretty) recent post on the "VGCollect Anonymous/Misc" thread to a chance at a free copy of the LE (w/ the guide).

As for me...well...had all my pre-ordering done the 1st day it was up for pre-ordering!

(NOT that that will come as much of a surprise to anyone here:)

[varkias]

Sounds good, I'll check out the link.  Thanks!

Funny how this is the first Disgaea I haven't really followed because I'm worn out on the series, and now it looks like it might end up being one of the best....  Just my friggin luck....  >.<'

Yeah, I feel ya, teck 

Although Disgaea & Shadow Hearts are, by far, my favorite 2 series - the Disgaea games (*Especially*, if you're like me, and go for ALL of the post-game content as well:) *Really* pretty much require a "cool-down" period (I think) due to the *MASSIVE* time investment + the amount of time necessary to 'study' and learn everything there is to know about how all of the (many & complex) systems in the game(s) work.

Oops, apparently I accidentally bought two copies of the Disgaea D2 hardbound strategy guide.  In case anyone's looking for one in the future....

How interested I would have been in the past....  If I hadn't retired my strat guide collection I'm sure I would be all over it....

Indeed!

I (*finally*) received my (*Delayed*) strat guides in yesterday's mail -and- I've just got to say that they're very impressive 

Nicely bound, great-looking, and informative - gorgeous art work + it includes a free DLC code for another (in-game) play-able character *and* (1 of 3) awesome looking Lithograph prints!

Definitely keeping my 'extras' sealed...FWIW (I know, I know - not very fucking much:) I'm seeing this as a definite, high value & hard to find item in the near future (like the LUNAR guides were)...only bigger, better, and in hardcover 

Oh yeah; as I was commenting before on the (what could be) an overwhelming learning-curve/sheer amount of knowledge of so many systems, arithmetic -and- of understanding how everything works...to new/virgin players of and to the series - the 1st (big/hardcover-sized) 60 pages, or so are what makes up "The Basics" chapter

Oh, I'd forgotten all about the prints.  I'll have to check mine when I get home.  Also, your comments make me feel a bit better that I accidentally bought a dupe.  I figured someone will want it someday!

Let me know when you see which print you have!

Yeah, IMO, if I were you, I wouldn't worry at all about being able to get your money back -but- you might wanna wait & see if you can double...or triple...your money by holding on to it for a bit

Already ahead of you!     And yeah, I'll definitely let you know about the prints.  Are they sealed inside of the books or just bundled with the packaging?

[disgaeniac]

You have to take the plastic seal off - they're inside of the book itself.

Aw, that sucks.  I was hoping at least one sealed for whomever may choose to buy it.

Totally noob friendly....
