Dissidia: Final Fantasy

Honestly, including characters in games where they were whatever the hell they wanted to be(II, III, V, and XII noteably), it'd be kinda like clonan gaems to include more heroes from that series.
I wouldn't mind Kam'lanaut over Shadow Lord, though. Shadow Lord, I imagine, would be more like a slower, more powerful DRK Cecil, while Kam'lanaut has the whole enspell ability from RDM, as well as some PLD abilities going for him.

Good point. I didn't think about Kam'Lanaut at the time.
 
they left FFXII out cause it sucked entirely :) :P

Problem?
 
it's why they wear the capes, so they don't get arrested for indecent exposure :P and sure, the judges LOOKED cool in FFXII but they were loluseless and did very little

Gabranth had a decent sized chunk of story and was involved in two relatively fun boss battles iirc. I'm glad to see him in Dissidia. I could see the 'real' villain being in with silly metal wings, but meh. Gabranth is cooler, and his ExBurst shout out to Basch is very cool as well.

I've already heard rumblings of a sequel, which is great because there are so many characters they could use it's ridiculous.

As far as Shantotto's inclusion, I heard it was because the staff was asked who their favorite FFXI character was, and Shantotto got the most votes. I would have liked to have seen a villain from XI and a hero from XII (ShadowLord or Kam'Lanaut.. Raogrimm with an ExBurst to transform into the SLord would be neat as well. Vaan ( =/ ), Ashe, Basch from XII), but I'm sure we'll get more characters in the sequel to please everyone.
Shantotto is one of my favorite XI NPCs, and I'm just happy to see XI represented at all.
 
When the staff was asked who was their favorite in XI, the choice came down to Shantotto and Prishe. Shantotto makes a bit more sense because she was introduced in the base game.

As for the rep from XII, the one who was actually considered most for a while was Baltheir. The "leading man" and one hell of a sex machine.

*ahem* Anyway, they went with Gabranth. His powers are quite promising in the game play.

Oh hey, I played the demo a bit more and I noticed they gave Squall an aerial magic attack~ Sexy indeed.

Also, I wonder if Onion Knight will get that spinny attack at a much earlier level this time. In the JP version, Butz (Bartz) actually got it first as one of HIS basic moves. Onion Knight is the actual original owner of that attack and yet he didn't learn it till like level 30. It's pretty silly.
 
It'd be interesting if they had put Baltheir in. He'd be a mainly ranged fighter with his gun, so most of his moves would probably be ranged attacks and a few to push the opponent away.

but they'd limit how far he shoots and all that jazz like they do with certain spells...
 
19 days! Mine's shipping the 24th and will be here by the 25th.
Been playing the demo a lot lately, I have a soft spot for Onion Knight and Cecil as well, wish I could try out more characters.
And Kefka can be a pain in the ass to fight sometimes.

Kefka is a walk in the park compared to Cloud of darkness...that bitch is such a whore.
 
I haven't fought her yet in the demo, or are you playing an import?

You're so lucky lol. I'm playing the demo and she's a bitch...she does this move that's kinda hard to just dodge...you'll see if you ever fight her.
 
Can't say I've had much trouble with Cloud of Darkness with the few times I've fought her. Then again, I've abused the hell out of OK's Brave -> HP attacks since I was told about them.

Onion Knight is good for doing small amounts of damage quickly...
 
Damn, time to play the demo some more lol, which character's have you fought her on?
