The character models look great overall, but why did they have to give Zidane bishounen face? The original version is so much more interesting visually, including better hair:

Hoping we get Vivi as a playable character later on; imagine pitting him and Shantotto against one another.

This is Zidane in original Dissidia

 

[DrunkShogun]

Final fantasy has a ridiculous amount of good characters when you think about. Palom porom as ice climbers would be interesting.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Shantotto is the fucking best

 

[Arkeband]

I don't mind Vaan as the representive for FFXII but in that case I would have liked the Adventurer as the representative for FFXIV.

This would be really lame. "Cutscene Guy" who thus far hasn't actually appeared in-game works as a narrative tool, but wasting a character slot on that would be asinine.

I hope that quotes would come back for Arcade/PS4 version.

Bartz quotes are the best. They definitely need to return.


I also hope that since they're rebooting the story and all, that we'll still get original songs besides the main theme. Stuff like Cosmos and the themes from Chaos. God In Fire is so awesome >.>

 

[ZangBa]

Every time I saw Zidane's face I felt like I recognized him and I finally figured it out.

He looks like Tara Reed.

 

[teiresias]

Looks freaking amazing. Also makes me sad.

We get all of these amazing new models of older characters - even the older NES-era characters - yet we're stuck with all-black-wearing, boring as crap character design for FFXV - at least for the characters we're going to be seeing most of the game. They need to go back to that whimsical NES-era character design style for a game this gen, I'm so over Final "NYC Fashion Week" Fantasy.

 

[HeelPower]

I actually half-way expect a character like Cactuar to pop up anyway. No, something even weirder. Something like the ??? ghost from FF6, Aki from Spirits Within and, most importantly, Ai from the Unlimited anime using the bitey wallet as her weapon.

FFUnlimited!

Somebody remembers it lol.It was a fun anime.

 

[Ganon Dragmire]

FFUnlimited!

Lord. Why don't we just add stuff from this too?:

 

[Son Of D]

Let's go all the way into the madness with spin-offs and add Benjamin from Mystic Quest.

Hey he made it into Theatrhythm......... Can we get the soundtrack at least?

Sure he has alts they could sell us too:

 

[Shamdeo]

main character of XIV still needs representation

Spoiler

 

[threelights]

If someone from FFUnlimited makes it, it has to be Kaze.

I need to see those summoning sequences in CG. I NEED THAT!

 

[TDLink]

main character of XIV still needs representation

I'd be fine with that choice. We don't really have a joke character yet

 

[Demoskinos]

Already calling Lightning as my main. I hope they have her Lightning Returns outfit in the game.

 

[Golnei]

Already calling Lightning as my main. I hope they have her Lightning Returns outfit in the game.

They could fund an entire season of DLC with her outfits from Lightning Returns. I'd be happy just with the ballgown, butler costume and Locke outfit.

And the Miqote outfit. MEOW MEOW CHOCO CHOW.

 

[SkyOdin]

Let's go all the way into the madness with spin-offs and add Benjamin from Mystic Quest.

Why not? He fights with a grappling hook claw and a LOT of high-explosives. It would make for a pretty unique move-set.

 

[Scrooge McDuck]

This would be really lame. "Cutscene Guy" who thus far hasn't actually appeared in-game works as a narrative tool, but wasting a character slot on that would be asinine.

Judging from the ending

Spoiler

of Heavensward, the cutscene guy might actually turn out to be a villain.

 

[Son Of D]

I think you mean someone else.

 

[orthodoxy1095]

Tina all day every day.

 

[Yarbskoo]

Yeah, I'm not really feeling that Zidane face.

I'm glad he's still around at least. FFIX feels pretty forgotten these days.

 

[That Dude John]

I'd like mah boi Zell.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

I think there might be licensing issues with using Unlimited or Legend of the Crystals characters.

Spoiler

Spirits Within is fine tho.

 

[Hedge]

Who is this and what is even happening.

 

[SkyOdin]

Who is this and what is even happening.

That is Godbert Manderville, the greatest goldsmith in Eorzea and one of the staring characters from Final Fantasy XIV's comedic Hildebrand quest-line. He is also the owner of the Gold Saucer.

 

[Enthus]

I think you mean someone else.

He could totally be an alt skin for his son.

 

[Big One]

Well if they're repping Tactics in this game it's likely we're going to see other spinoffs represented as well. I'm thinking:

Type-0
Crystal Chronicles
Seiken Densetsu
Mystic Quest
Legends (mobile games)
Mobius

Possibly some others, but those are the ones I'm thinking.

 

[CorvoSol]

how do you have an ffxiv avatar and ask this question

 

[Golnei]

Well if they're repping Tactics in this game it's likely we're going to see other spinoffs represented as well. I'm thinking:

Out of those, I'd be the least surprised to see Type-0 stuff, especially since Gilgamesh already had a Type-0 costume in 012. Though the spinoff I'd want to see represented most is also the one with the smallest chance...

He must not be forgotten.

 

[Dimitri LH]

Spoiler

Spirits Within is fine tho.

I would be a okay with this honestly.


And I still think getting a Keyblade master would be great considering what dissidia was supposed to be. No disney characters obviously.

 

[Meccanical]

I fucking wish Ashley Riot was in Dissidia.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Sadly Akitoshi Kawazu admitted that they literally have no idea how to write this character anymore.

 

[AgeEighty]

This is Zidane in original Dissidia

Right, which is different from in FFIX but not as different as the newest incarnation. Seems like they take the transformation farther with each new Dissidia title.

 

[Epcott]

Hope Noctis is unlockable.

 

[Golnei]

It's more just the expression of his main render - the ingame model seems fairly close to the one used for the PSP renders from other angles.

Sadly Akitoshi Kawazu admitted that they literally have no idea how to write this character anymore.

Would that really be a problem for Dissidia, considering how caricatured the entire cast is? I'd expect the game's relative obscurity and somewhat distant connection to FF to be much more decisive factors - VS doesn't even have representation in Theatrhythm.

 

[Hedge]

I'm sorry. I stopped playing but my heart still beats for Akihiko Yoshida. I hope that is okay.

Ashley was the fucking man. I'd love to see him get in, unlikely as it is.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Come on Nomura, we know you'd love to make a drawing of Ashley's alt costume.

 

[Meccanical]

Daily reminder that Lightning got three games yet Ashley only got one.

Seeing Y'shtola, that area and listening to that music just reminds me of that stupid Crab FATE in La Noscea. It's Not Lupus? So many tanks who didn't know how to position it properly...

 

[Ishida]

I will wait forever for a Dissidia game that adds characters from other Square-Enix franchises.

Crono VS Aya Brea.

I just hope this succeeds enough to justify more specific spin-offs, like Dissidia Monks: No Magic, No Weapons, No Problem - Mash and Ayla Beat Up Everyone.

Who are the monks in the series? I can't think of many of the top of my head

Yang, Sabin, Tifa, Zell, Amarant and Yda?

There are also a few distinct ones in XI - Prishe you may know from Dissidia, although she's partly white mage, and Maat in particular has specific moves of his own (not to mention mastery of most other jobs in the game).

Expanding to other SE games in their history you'd have the likes of Ayla from Chrono Trigger and Masaru from Live-A-Live.

Seems they added some drums since they last showed this song.
