Disgaea Hour of Darkness - current progress 1

Raising stats and excessive leveling up - it's what I enjoy doing. Once I heard of Disgaea's level cap of 9999, I was interested in getting it - I put it on my Christmas List and got it. This video shows what I've been up to recently. I've been making use of the item world (only starting this upon reaching episode 3, when I learned of its existence - I used Vyer's castle a lot before this). I primarily solo and duo. Laharl is the main one I use with Freeze (my blue mage) taking the role of backup or when enemies are grouped up in a certain way. I've found numerous tricks as well - I can get Laharl to move 16 panels in one turn. Hint: there's a certain spot you need to stop on at the end of your move so you can move a second time.

i really can't stand the ps2 version of this game

[ulillillia]

How is that? Aside from being unable to disable effects (I have ways to minimize this) and the lack of a top down view (this has caused a few problems, such as busting a pyramid hidden in a pit that end up killing off half my party from an unexpected 6-color chain), I otherwise don't have any problems with it. After all, I've exceeded a billion total damage (see my "1 3/8 billion total damage" video for proof).

@ulillillia it's just the difference in voice acting for me they just seem off in this version 

[ulillillia]

The voice acting doesn't bother me. Besides, you can turn off the voices, even in the PS2 version (for what very few options there are). I often find some of them annoying at times, so I've turned the volume down to the lowest possible but still able to hear it. I don't have much interest in the game's story though.

@thevirus513 Dude, this is the Best version of this game, I'm pretty shocked that you don't like it. In fact, you're the 1st person I ever heard say they don't like this vesion!

This is an extremely old video. Back then, I was struggling. Today, this game holds the record for the most play in the shortest time span - 625 hours in just 3 months and 850 in just 5 1/3. No other game comes close. I'm regularly getting 8-figure damage popups and my DEF stat on one character is so high that even Uber Prinny Baal is having a hard time doing damage with his weapon equipped. This game has 1200 hours on it right now. Disgaea 2 is now passing 550.

ullillia i could have just mailed you my copy. i enjoy your videos and I haven't played my copy in years.

[williamkendrick]

ulillia, listen buddy, you need help, right now. listen listen listen, you need to use the monster senate to pass a bill, for glasses, pass bills to up your item cost, aka, more expensive items.. then look for an item, its a pair of glasses, they are called 'foresight'. you'll want these, then go to itemworld,a nd remove the special unlocked occupants, and put them on ANY item you want.. and enjoy disgaea, you just ended your stat challenge man.. you'll be here FOREVER.. 9999 is only the start

man i want the PS2 version of this

the DS one pisses me off because

1. my ds "a" button is broken... kinda makes it hard to do ANYTHING

2. the forsesight glitch isn't there

[thevirus513]

@Suikokid2 really I don't mind playing the PS2 version but I prefer the PSP version

[ulillillia]

Find a rank 39 item (e.g. cosmic blade, infernal gun, longinus, etc.) and reach floor 100. Be sure to have a hand (bandit's hand works best) and a high-level thief and steal the rank 40 item from the item god inside. Level that rank 40 item up to 100 stealing another copy, and defeat the item god 2 and you'll have your hyperdrive. To find a rank 39 item, check enemies' equipment and the stage's bonuses (for high-rank items in the item world, like a chaos orb) and go after it.

Haha man it's good to see you were once new to the game :P I mean, obviously. But 41 hours and such low stats? I was around level 300 and transmigrated (stored) level of over 1k at 41 hours, and I'm only 70 hours in now and I still have no idea of how to do most things in this game.

I can NOT find a rank 40 legendary item to get hyperdrive. Or any high rank legendaries for that matter. T____________T
