Story:Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness is a tactical RPG in the Disgaea series. The game is a sequel to 2003's Disgaea: Hour of Darkness for the PlayStation 2, where the respective main characters of that game will again be the focus. Gameplay in Disgaea D2 remains the same as other core Disgaea games in the series. Monster Mounting is a new feature that replaces Magichange from Disgaea 3 and Disgaea 4. Characters can also build relationships with each other and their compatibility is determined by a heart scale of 1 to 5. Another feature is the Cheat Shop, which allows the player to modify certain attributes such as lowering the gain rate of something like experience, to raise the gain rate of something else, like Hell.Show more

While I've always been a fan of videogames, I must admit that I rarely followed the development of a title since it got announced. This was my first time keeping an eye on every single announcement. The return of the original trio as the main focus was such big news! Even today, this is still my favorite Disgaea game, and I'm upset that we never got a version of it outside of the PS3. It deserves so much better
Easily by far my favorite Disgaea game aside from 5. It was a great return to the original trio or Laharl, Etna and Flonne. It is very sad to see this never got a release outside of the PS3 and would fully support it if it was released on PC

I have never had a chance to play this one. It's the only one in the entire series I missed out on. I always hoped that someday I would get to see the craziness this game has to offer. The original cast coming back? Sounds amazing. It would help me finish my collections on PC.
I know this game wasn't loved as much as other installments but I feel it's an underappreciated gem of the series! Sicily was a great inclusion, Xenolith's story was good and I enjoyed the gameplay!
Despite popular opinion I loved this game, It was refreshing to return to Laharl, Flonne and Etna. Sicily was a great inclusion to the trio and the gameplay was so fun!
I really wish D2 was ported onto switch and PC, It and 2 and 3 need to be ported. It was fun to see the original cast again. I would love to replay it as an adult.

Ive been loosely into disgaea for a few years now. Ive watched many videos on it but I want to get the full experience and actually get my hands on the game. With PC being where I do 99.9 percent of my gaming I would love for the disgaea series preservstion to extend to something as timeless as PC
I love this game as it was it was a perfect sequel to Disgaea 1. I still hope for a Disgaea D3, but a re-release of D2 will be great. Not to mention, people will enjoy this game without buying old hardware.
