im voting for turn it into other tactics. Sektor just got onimusha tactics and its AWESOME. So it would be cool to have a place to talk about all the other tactics games including disgaea.

First of all I want to point out that this is really the admins decision, I'm not sure if even we vote overwhelming for one of the choices they'll follow it, this board isn't a democracy, its a plural dictatorship  ;D Of course I think they'll probably listen to us anyhow since the admins are kind and loving dictators... anyhow... I'm a little undecided on this, plus I figure my opinion doesn't count for much since I don't actually OWN Disgaea... but... might as well voice it. Anyhow, although I don't own disgaea, it interests me, as most decent video games do, and I do take the time to read some of the board. and I have noticed that.. that board is really pretty dead, although it is a good source of information as I see many people here have questions on it, that are usually answered with good responses and solutions to any problems. I also understand that KoL especially wants to minimize the amount of board topics simply because well... things get cluttered. You do have a good idea kamon, on making it an "other tactics" board. Maybe this could be extended to games like AW2, FE, along with Onimusha tactics (hey I've barely heard anything about this, what's it like?!) or tactics games for other systems. Now I'm just half babbling... (it was full babbling until I deleted about 1/3 of this post).... so, my answer is: I'm not really sure on what it should be, and don't really think I'm in any position to judge what would happen, although I DO think it would be nice to have a board for just other tactics games in general. I wanna see input from more people (mostly admins and people who actually have disgaea). there... my wishy-washy reply is done ;D. |

The Generic Tactics Board...i like it.  Disgaea is a great game, but there needs to be a place to talk about tactics game specifically. |

I think he just means its not anywhere near as active as the FFTA and TO:KoL boards... and even those aren't TOO active...
and kamon, I know you never said it was your decision, mostly a reminder to stop people from doing things like ordering the admins or something... I dunno, it needed to be stated.

I think it should be turned into a tactics board. It's not very active anymore anyway and a general tactics board would be nice, since so many tactics games just came out.

Well, I am thinking of deleting it, but I want to make sure with Landon first to see what he thinks. In my opinion, having too many boards sucks. And about having another Tactics game board, I don't know, because regardless of what game it is (unless it's something like TO or FFTA), it'll end up being like the Disgaea board. Besides, if you want to talk about any other tactics game or anything, Console Talk or Retro is always there. I think the board is just taking up space right now... That's a good idea too.... I mean an "other tactics" board would just be stealing stuff from topics in GBA, console, and retro, all of which already aren't THAT busy, and a lot of the posts are on tactics games... |

The Tactics Genre is very scarce in games so even if there was an 'other tactics', like Crono said, it won't really get much popularity.

[glow=navy,2,300]I agree that it would be a good idea since the Disgaea board isn't used much. I also agree that if this would be made that there would be less posts on other boards that aren't really used that frequently. My idea is, how about we just get rid of the Disgaea board and... not make any new boards? The extra board just give Crono, Landon and the other admins extra work and takes up extra space that isn't really being used.
Either that or a General Tactics/Stragedy board be made.[/glow]

You know I'm starting to think we should get rid of the anime board... I mean the last post on it was 28 days ago.... Now that is a board that takes up space.

General board? That could work seeing as how the topics don't come so often anyhow. I was thinking about taking out GBA/Console (and maybe even PC, depends, because a lot of talk there isn't about games) and then instead putting VERY general genres of games..... like RPG/Strategy/Tactics, and then Action/Adventure.... I'm not sure that would work either though... too many genres.... We'll definitely have to switch GBA to handheld or something if enough people here (not me, but there's some people here who are) get the PSP... |

[glow=navy,2,300]I know this is a little off topic, but I think that the PSP is going to be a major flop. The way that Square Enix has been chasing after the GBA lately seems to be a hint that either they are not impressed with the PSP or that they want nothing to do with it.[/glow]

They already have plans to put out games for the PSP. That line of reasoning doesn't work. It's like saying "Maybe we shouldn't put out games for the PS2...there will be a PS3 coming out soon enough"

I dont know about you guys but I really, really hate the idea of the PSP. This sucks ass, I dont want to buy two portable systems to play the games I want to play. Square will probably end up withdrawing from Nintendo since the majority of its games are for the GBA anyway.
