It's basically this cat in the middle:

Anyways, in regards to Dissidia, no one expected Ace. Neutral with the character but not the type I would pick up to use since he's more oriented to a specific play style. Character personality is also rather bland but that's expected since character development made him that way. I somewhat enjoyed Type-0's story, but the game itself just wasn't fit for a console game since it was originally from the PSP and too direct. Gameplay feels portable, camera changing feels portable, and one of the worst issues with gaming in general is motion blur when moving the camera (worst), but of course that's besides the point. *Seriously, why do they make games with motion blur? for a more cinematic experience? that's nonsense.* (Heard they patched that though so props to them)

Once I platinum FFXV and Dissidia drops, I will directly go ham on the Dissidia posts likely with Awesmic and xZero here. (Unless someone asks for help with FFXV gameplay related and builds, lore related, as well as dealing with bosses or certain monsters).

When Dissidia does get released for consoles, should we continue discussion on that specific game here or would it be better around then to make a separate thread so we could discuss characters and mechanics neatly like say the overwatch thread?

Making a separate thread is taking the site's forum policy a bit too high here with threads that originally didn't belong at FSD even with off topic discussions. Dissidia by default is a Final Fantasy game and it should stay here. CyberEvil will immediately drag a Dissidia thread straight back here because it's Final Fantasy and it makes sense that it does.

Like if someone made a Dragon Age topic, they'd have to title it with mostly BioWare because they don't want to flood FSD with so many off topics of games that are within the same company boundaries.

I think that's best too, it'd make sense if the games played different drastically but Dissidia still is FF and still plays similarly.

I think maybe within a couple more months they'll be able to talk localization, right now the arcade exclusivity is best for proper balance and more revenue to support the game on consoles like say DOA and T7. Being KT developed you can almost count on them having additional DLC content on consoles which I'm perfectly happy with, I like when games can be supported long term to keep it fresh.

Well honestly Dissidia plays nothing like Final Fantasy (and the FFs from XII onward play nothing like what you usually think when thinking FF), but we talk about KH in this thread too so yeah, I don't see why we would need another thread for it.

Dissidia by default is a Final Fantasy game though. The only one that excludes from this topic is Kingdom Hearts (somewhat, because they also have FF characters in there), but we don't want to bumble jumbo KH thread on FSD and taking advantage of forum rules because they will shut that down. See, things would of been easier if someone made a "Square Enix" thread, but Final Fantasy is their staple anyway so might as well be a FF thread.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At the moment, they are still in the vanilla build and releasing new characters with passing time. This might add the possibility that there may be exclusive characters for the consoles in the future that won't be in the arcade builds over in Japan.

So far, they've been partnering with different companies and are even making Dissidia Esports, along with future rumors from JPN twitters is that they will partner up with Red Bull for promotions and ads.

If Square Enix partners up with Red Bull? oh man.....the money.

There won't be enough constant discussion to warrant its own thread. It'll spike occasionally but nothing that will disrupt this thread to the point it needs it.

I really want to get my hands on Kain now though. I see his armor a lot in FF14 and I've always just loved it from a design standpoint.

Well that's because Kain is a badass, and sometimes a badass needs a badass armor (well.........not all the time. You can still be a badass and kill monsters while in casual clothing or even be naked to do it.)

No no, it's not what he does, it's how he does it. His ears don't change at all (no beding or moving to express his emotions), and his body looks like it's levitating and moved around like a bag of potatoes.

In FFVII, you can skip the Midgardsormr by catching a chocobo... In fact, I believe it's required to progress!
Cool to see it back. Now I wonder if the giant snake swimming very much like it did in the marsh during a trailer was it. I do remember thinking those movements reminded me of something, but I couldn't quite pinpoint what.

I just traded in my Xbone and PS4 for the PSPro for FFXV (It's true that only DOA and FF games will get me to buy consoles). I really can't wait to play this game.

Wait, you could already get your hands on the Pro? O:
