Jedi Posted January 11, 2017 Author Share Posted January 11, 2017 About Noctis... So they are going to add Villains for now, which means no Noctis for a while. And I really doubt he is going to be the "unexpected character" since he would be anything except "unexpected" imho Hmmm, Minwu maybe or some other fan favorite.

Batter the Beast Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I'm unironically hoping for Benjamin from Mystic Quest as the "unexpected character". Not that I like the game at all, but his tool kit would be a neat basis for a moveset, especially with his grappling hook claw. I'm guessing the "unexpected character" is going to be an unpopular newcomer of some kind, though I'm doubting it being from a spinoff since we recently got one from Type 0.

MissShake Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Benjamin would be unexpected, as would the protagonists of World of Final Fantasy I think. I'm thinking the siblings of World of Final Fantasy are more likely than Benjamin, since it's newer. But I'm not sure how a moveset for one of them would work, since I never played WoFF. It'd just be calling monsters to attack for them, right? (Ugh that sounds like a possible nightmare, give me Benjamin instead.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starman Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 i'm reminded of the Dissidia stream where Ace got revealed with the one dude hyping Benjamin i don't know why he was hyped up, but stuff happened. As for unexpected character, well i could throw a name around but it is unexpected for a reason i'm gonna have to agree with the siblings from World of Final Fantasy with a moveset revolving around shifting between their smaller forms and their normal/jiant forms, Lann attacking with his fists, Reynn using her knife with both using some form of magic. And if i'm to throw a name in the pile, maybe Locke? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Malign Knight Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I hope that this does not count as necro-posting, but It seems that the devs will be doing a new livestream regarding the game on 7th march, where they'll do a Q&A session and, most importantly, present a new character.

The Malign Knight Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 So, apparently, The Emperor is the new character for Dissidia: Â I was expecting Yuna, but I'm still really happy to see this this guy back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 Neato the Emperor is back, although we do know he and the rest of the old veterans are coming back, so its a little more dull than expected for a new reveal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randoman Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Time to SUFFA and RUNUMUK!!! On a serious note though, I'm quite psyched to see The Emperor return. He was the villain I was the 5th most skilled with in the original Dissidia. I remember everyone always saying to play him, you should "space yourself from the opponent and lay traps strategically," but sometimes I'd just throw that out the window and shoot Flares and Mines at point blank range. Switching between long range and melee range attack launching with The Emperor was a surprisingly effective tactic. Plus, you gotta love his voice and lines when attacking. Also, as someone who used The Emperor extensively (and mastered every ability including purchasable ones and got 10 accessory slots for him), I noticed for the new Dissidia they've changed some of his moves so that they spawn where the opponent is, compared to spawning very close to The Emperor. Hopefully, it won't be too weird getting accustomed to that change. I know they likely implemented that change to make The Emperor easier to use, but sometimes even improvements can take a while to get used to.

Well considering almost everyone else is quite different too, I don't think it'll be too jarring compared to the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randoman Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Ah, right. I forgot about the general moveset changes for most characters and how some characters like Bartz were essentially changed completely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Malign Knight Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 He is not really a new character, so I apologize if you think that this post is kind of unnecessary, but Bahamut has finally been announced(as a summon, of course): He seems to be about boosting Ex-skills, which is kind of cool I guess, but I belive that Ramuh will still be the way to go, considering that the nerf he got(slower attack) isn't really a big one, to say the least.

eclipse Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 It's going to be amazing. Anyway, David Bowie's resurrection fits him nicely. The Emperor may be a jerk lore-wise, but damn he has a good voice! Bahamut looks about as crazy as I'd expect.

I'm thinking that either Exdeath(FFV is super popular in Japan) or Gabranth(The zodiac age is about to be released, after all) and their games both have a stage as well(and all of the villains shown so far were all presented in stages from their own games). Then again, they could also release a FFXIV villain due to Stormblood coming pretty soon and leave gabranth for July. Oh, there is also popularity usage(basically a list of the character from the most used to the least used): 1. Cloud Strife2. Vaan3. Tidus4. Sephiroth5. Bartz Klauser6. Lightning7. Kain Highwind8. Squall Leonhart 9. The Emperor10. Kuja11. Terra Branford12. Garland13. Y'shtola14. Ramza Beoulve15. Firion16. Cecil Harvey17. Warrior of Light18. Onion Knight19. Ace20. Zidane Tribal21. Kefka Palazzo22. Shantotto EDIT: The new character is Exdeath! @Jedi@eclipse@Randoman(I'm sorry, if tagging you is annoying for you, but otherwise you would have hardly noticed this "important"(well, kind of) edit of mine   Here's how his new moveset works: Spoiler Exdeath can change into 3 differents modes: Power mode - his attacks becomes overall stronger, making them comparable to that of an Heavy Type, Debuff mode - his attacks can decrease the attack, defense and movement speed of his opponent when they hit but his own attack power is decreased, Seal mode - when the attack hit, prevents the enemy from using a generic EX skill and increase his own EX gauge Spoiler   Edited May 9, 2017 by The Malign Knight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted May 9, 2017 Author Share Posted May 9, 2017 Interesting variations to Exdeath, he was already a fighter with alot of depth in OG and 012. This will just add to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 That's way too much thinking for me! Then again, I wasn't a fan of Exdeath in the other two games. Still, thanks for the update~! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
