I own Disgaea and Blast Master. Blaster master seems fun, but I find the bosses early on impossible to beat. Am I missing something? Their health is insane and goes down so slowly, whereas when I get hit I lose a ton of health.

As for Disgaea, I have tried to play it multiple times and I just can't get into it. The music is weird (not in a good way) and I feel no attachment towards the characters or story. I feel like I wasted my money on some niche thing that probably is great but I can't appreciate.

Blaster Master Zero has pink power-ups that fill up a bar. Hold down the L button to select different projectiles. You can also do this in the menu where you can read up on what each shot does. If you fill the entire pink bar, you'll have access to a super powerful weapon. Each time you get hit, you lose one bit of the pink bar, so that's something to be careful about. You don't lose a ton of health as each hit you take only deducts one bit of your green life bar. Regardless, power up your weapon and ideally you are at max when you touch the checkpoint before a boss fight. Should you still lose for whatever reason, you get to try again at full power.

Disgaea is a SRPG series with a convoluted battle system and a lot of grinding. I am shocked that so many people seem to own it, because I've said it often enough that that thing isn't worth buying. You wasted money on some niche thing that is mediocre at best.

Then I may return it lol. If I return do I lose 3rd party rank on this thread? Not return but sell to something like gamestop.

I don't own Blaster Master  so you will have to ask someone else for that advice. 

For Disgaea 5 , I do indeed like it. I actually like the music but some people would say my game music tastes aren't mainstream as I like Xenoblade X's as well. However I do agree on the characters. They are kinda ok and not really anything special. However their intereactions with each other do make me laugh sometimes. I think the intereactions are more interesting than the characters themselves who feel like sterotyped a bit. The story is incredibly dull as it is the same bad guy bad. Good guy good. Go fight bad guy!  I am only on chapter 7 so I am not even half way done so I can change my opinion.

Also as a 3DS Fire Emblem fan I ws right at home with the gameplay. (Which is the biggest reason I play this game.) I don't really play for the story but I find the gameplay makes the game worth trying out. Now if you excuse me but I am off to play some more Disgaea 5. 

Disgaea is different than Fire Emblem though. Fire Emblem has a lot more tactical deep. That you have a RPG on a grid alone makes them not similar.

What gets me in Disgaea, is that crazyness it built into the gameplay. Towers (and tower attacks and tower move). Bills changing the game that are approved by senators (that I can bribe or fight). Prisoners I can take and interrogate that can be squeezed for magic to increase the stats of my characters (or join my cause or ...). I can go into the world inside an item (even just a cheap health item) and fight there to increase the items level. All of this is funny and crazy and each new invention is just cool.

Switch out of stock everywhere in my country, hopefully will get one in late August or early September, and even though Zelda will be the first game, my first 3rd party game will be Fate Extella. I put off getting it on PS4 because of the switch version

Since this thread is about games that people own, I would assume that selling games means that they will get deducted from your personal total as well as for the game total.

Except I already gave that 3rd party company my money and support. Me selling it doesn't decrease the amount of sales that they will receive. People that buy used game will always have bought the used game instead of new.

So i take it this is only for brand new purchased 3rd party and not second hand?



Soooo after all these posts, does Mario+Rabbids count ? I want to move to 2 but I'm prioritizing a lot of Nintendo games :c I'm going to buy Hollow Knight and Rocket League when they come out though !

If your after one you could just pre order the Splatoon 2 bundle it's out in just under 2 weeks and most retailers are taking pre-orders so stock on them seems fine and most likely been held back for that bundle, Pricing is good also as it's only £40 more than a standalone and comes with a game that retails at £49.99 even if you have no interest in Splatoon.

Seems like the only way to guarentee yourself a Switch in the forseeable future :)

The shaming of the bottom 5 with these poisonous mushrooms is totally uncalled for.

Didn't you get Snake Pass already to avoid that shaming?

No.

Hmm, thought so, dunno why? Maybe I remember later. Well, so you deserve the shaming shroom.
