I started on the second and i had notrouble understanding the story, but i don't like SRPG's so i got sick of it pretty quickly.

IF you like the series, then you'll enjoy all of them, since they're basically always the same concept with added bits here and there.

Just play them both. If I remember right they both have different storylines.

It doesn't matter what order you play them in. Though Disgaea 2 does some bonuses for fans of the first(and 3 as well for Dark Hero Days).

Don't worry about the story much. The 2nd Disgaea makes very little connection to the 1st, and if you're really worried about that then just wiki the story. I liked the second way more, so if you can't get both get the second.

You might still wanna play Disgaea1 first though so you know who Etna is but it doesn't matter THAT much

Isint it better to play the less funnier version first so that it wont feel like a huge downgrade? Also playing first one first unlock's female samurai class (or was it ronin) on the second game.

I just beat Disgaea 2 yesterday and i have to reverse what i said. Disgaea 2 is really worse game than the second one. Character's are good and there is still lot's of NIS humor but not as much than in the first one. Also the first one had better story and cast. Main reason that i did like the second less though was the fact that second one had awful level design. There wasent basically any interesting map on the game. I hope that Disgaea 3 will be much better experience than second one.
