Disgaea multiplayer to have neutral enemies, fog of war

by Andrew Yoon on Sep 4th 2007 2:10PM

In addition to the Geo Cubes and Demon Gadgets, Disgaea's upcoming PSP-exclusive multiplayer mode will feature some genre staples. First is the fog of war. As in other strategy games, players will have to move their units through the map to increase the areas visible to them. Going headstrong into a fortified enemy position will undoubtedly end in some doom.

To add even more tension to the darkness hidden in the fog of war, neutral enemies can also be activated. Neutral enemies will attack both you and your opponent and are quite powerful (like Turok's dinosaurs, perhaps?). Willi you and your opponent both fight against the neutral enemies? Or will you hope that your enemies get decimated while you run away?

The only thing I don't like is that Etna and Laharl and other similar-looking NPCs.

Dark Hero Days added palette swapping but only for mass units. Now all we have to tell people apart with is the weapon. Oh well.

DS also has multiplayer and both have Etna mode.

The key differences: PSP has both Japanese and English voices while DS only has english.

DS has Prinny commentary, PSP does not.
