Nippon Ichi (Disgaea, Makai Kingdom, etc.)

Never touched Prinny 1, think I should skip it in favor of Prinny 2?

It's worth playing, though it's ridiculously brutal and the last boss will wreck hell and your hands.

I just completely ragequitted the ENTIRE GAME due to that boss. Was like "Screw it" and turned it off after dozens of failed attempts.

Then I deleted the game to make room for Prinny 2. Yyyeah.

In other news, my Disgaea 3 copy finally came in so I can pick it up tomorrow.p

Thankfully Prinny 2 has an easy mode now.

You mean Baby mode. With the amount of mockery involved, I'm not really sure people would want to play that (you know, ego and all that.).

Then again, it is a Take That of sorts...

S'not like I don't insult myself, anyway. :P

And yeah... That boss took me a few hundred lives to beat.

The annoying part is that you KNOW you can beat him because of his unchangable pattern.

But damaging him as much and not dying yourself is the hard part.

The worst part was just how much you had to attack him. Since he had a boss timer, just like every other boss, you had to practically break the attack button to beat him, all while not dying.

Exactly. God, I hope Prinny 2's boss isn't like that ;-;

I don't know if this has been posted, but Prinny 2 now has a DLC called Super Netherworld, giving you Pram's Netherworld as a stage. It's also free.

Yet I am enraged that the PSN store (the Dutch one, at least) wrote the Prinny verbal tic as dude.

That's not cool, dood...

So my copy of ZHP came in today.

PRINNY WIFE dood

I replaced my Prinny wife with a Dragon wife.

There's nothing more awesome than getting glomped by a giant reptile, no sirree.

I used the snake woman that previously ran the clinic. :P

I've made it up to chapter 4, and my total level is 127. Going to do more of the NIS brand of grinding tomorrow.

Looking back, it's probably because 'dood' is the way 'dead' or 'death' is written in Dutch.

Wouldn't that be somewhat appropriate? The Prinnies are dead souls trapped in penguin bodies until they can earn enough money for redemption.

I like to think so, because that would imply the use of Dutch instead of overused stuff like Latin and German XD But yeah, in Dutch, it makes no grammatical sense to use it as a verbal tic.

Verbal tics in general don't make sense really, I could say carrot at the end of all my sentences and it would still count as one technically.

Eh, I dunno. I actually find this one to feel pretty natural, dood.

It's like you're addressing the other person after ever sentence, you know dood?

Not sure how I feel about the fourth set of dungeons. On one hand, we don't have the annoying random nature of the cannons anymore, on the other hand, there is NO FOOD ANYWHERE. That's not really too much of a problem for me since I've stockpiled a bunch of meat chunks, but it's really a very clear sign that things will (obviously) not get better.

Is there any way to tell if certain enemies are innocents? I figure I'm not dying frequently enough to get the Tiger's Den to level up my employees, so I might need to go scouring the Mastery Dungeon for unwilling slaves new recruits.

Unfortunately, I can't send innocents back to base with Fulton air recovery but all the humor that is already present in ZHP makes up for that.

The Tiger's Den doesn't level based on dying, it levels based on the amount of floors you've passed before dying/leaving.

After everything that unfolded in Disgaea 2, you can never have Priere in your party.

Never. Not even with cheats.

The character was unfinished coding simply set to bound keys to the level she was on.

In other words, you would have to bring the level with you each time she came out.

Depressing.

I probably should've worded it differently.

It's to my understanding that you unlock the Tiger's Den by dying a certain amount of times. I've only died four times in the entirety of my time playing ZHP, so I probably haven't died enough to unlock it.

I checked, you unlock the Tiger's Den by recruiting around 10 employees. I'll have to get to work on that.

Yeah, I thought you meant dying so the Tiger Den would level your employees XD

Anyway, leveling employees is important, believe me.
