I was thinking of picking this up when the physical version comes out on the 23rd. Do I have to spend 400 hours beating the previous 4 games or will I not miss out on much?

No, the only thing you'll probably miss out on is some banter from re-appearing characters from previous games. The stories are not really connected.
These games are all about grinding, stacking stats, and killing incredibly strong enemies. No reason to do it in 5 games back to back.
Stories are disconnected, D5's grind is also lighter than the other ones so it's a good game to start with.
I would just buy 5. The game engine and units are mostly the same between between D2 and 5. It's more like an expansion pack than a new game. A western dev doing the same kind of "sequel" would be flamed

thanks lads I preordered it
How does it compare to 1? Haven't played any of the others.
>>376757536
same here, im curious.
I loved the characters and the banter between them in 1, and the main reason i dropped 2 was because most characters were retarded and the plot sucked.
Is there NG+ with all your shit getting carried over?
The stories aren't connected.
You'll miss the feeling of nostalgia of having recurring characters talk with eachother, but yeah.
How rare will the physical version be after it launches?
I want to get it, but i'm low on funds for the next month and a half.
Are those the main characters of 5? They have horrible looking designs, that's are for Disgaea.

You must be 5 years old to think Laharl, Flonne and MidBoss are funny or interesting.
Disagaea 1 is garbage.

Its probably because I last played the game when it came out, both 1 and 2, so my guess is nostalgia.
Random question: Is the Switch version in 720p in dock mode or 1080p?
>>376759313
It runs just like it does on the PS4 ver, so 1080p.
>>376758569
You can use any of the older characters at chapter 1 if you want. All the DLC is included.
