Jedi Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) This Terra alt is amazing. Some sick new costumes have been shown since last time, as well as since my last thread, Kefka, Kain and Garland were revealed. Discuss the game we still continue to hope for to get localized eventually once its outside of Arcades. All these alts look so sweet, so many references to art and such like Ramza's. We know that the dev team still plans to have around 50 characters eventually, but we are still unsure when its coming to the PS4 and eventually the west.

HK Motendra Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 EX is not a thing in Arcade to my knowledge If you look at around 0:40, you'll see what looks like Onion Knight coming out of EX. Aside from that, the last two at the end, are they new? They werent in Duo Decim to my memory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowofchaos Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) My arcade stick is ready. These are the kinds if reasons why Japan's arcade scene is so... huge still. Edited August 11, 2016 by shadowofchaos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from that, the last two at the end, are they new? They werent in Duo Decim to my memory Onion Knight has a gimmick that makes him go Ninja or Sage as opposed to EX, its like Cecil's Paladin/Dark Knight switches to my knowledge. Each character has Ex Skills as opposed to a super mode, this is probably done for both balancing reasons and the fact that its now 3 v 3 combat. That would be Y'shtola from FF14 and Ramza from Final Fantasy Tactics. So far, Arcades cast is WoL, Garland, Firion, Onion Knight, Cecil, Kain, Bartz, Terra, Kefka, Cloud, Squall, Zidane, Tidus, Shantotto, Vaan, Lightning and those two, also mind you all of these characters have drastically altered movesets and are being added slowly to the Arcade machines currently, Square-Enix and Team Ninja have both stated a general goal of "50" characters, at some point, whether or not we get them, is another matter entirely.

DarkDestr0yer61 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 These alternate costumes look so nice. I'm really digging Kain's Holy Dragoon costume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 so is this confirmed coming to PS4? because i don't even like final fantasy but this looks pretty cool and i'd gladly buy it if a PS4 version came out. but from what i've heard i thought it was arcade only It's been heavily hinted at, some time ago, SE showed it running on a PS4 engine so I can only assume they are going to port it over, after its had its run in the Arcade, its still techically being "made" they are just releasing it in chunks via the Arcades as of right now since Arcades are huge in Japan and I guess this is the best way for them to have people test the game, so they can do tweaks.

Zera Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Hopefully Cloud isn't as OP here as he is in Smash 4. So far, Ramza is hands down the best character revealed. He even has his stone throw move from Final Fantasy Tactics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He even has his stone throw move from Final Fantasy Tactics! Cloud's usually been in the "Solid but not super amazing" dealilo in his Dissidia runs so far. Also I'd say why he isn't OP in smash and just "Really good" but thats Smash not Dissidia Yeah Ramza has throw stone, but his shtick interestingly enough is more so to buff his team or himself to become faster/stronger etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowofchaos Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Many games have a run in the arcades before being ported. The thing is, huge profits come from arcades the bigger it is from the community having tourneys and huge amounts of practice without console versions to take those hours of revenue away. So it'll be a little while at least before it gets announced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drarky Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 This. This is love at first glance. I'm SO looking forward to this game. I might buy a PS4 if they officially announce it in there. I played so much Dissidia 012, and I'm extremely hyped for this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami922 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Hopefully it does come to PS4, so I finally have a reason to buy one outside of FFVIIR. Also, where is Tifa? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like she will be in the game. As well as all the characters from Dissidia 012... I feel like it would be a little strange to cut them.

Jedi Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) I feel like she will be in the game. As well as all the characters from Dissidia 012... I feel like it would be a little strange to cut them. Especially considering the huge roster number they are aiming for, its likely that they are just revamping them because like every returning character seems to play almost completely differently from Dissidia 1 and Duodecim. Such as Bartz instead of mimicking other fighters in a funky moveset now uses Spell Blades, Ranger moves (Yes he does use Rapid fire), a Dragoon one and various other jobs.

Drarky Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) Bartz changedhis role entirely to represent FFV better. While the Mimic class was a cool concept and such, the big thing that V had was his class system being much more polished compared to the one in III, so it's new moveset represents that much better. Also, Blue Magic hype Edited August 12, 2016 by Drarky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeaceRibbon Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 The game needs a white mage character, but other than that it's lookin' good. :P (filthy heal-player over here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zera Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 So, will Ramza be the most tactical character? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 The game needs a white mage character, but other than that it's lookin' good. :P (filthy heal-player over here) The devs have stated multiple times that they really want to add Minwu, the OG White Mage, so its very likely he and others will be around, because with more support styled characters like Ramza around, its not a stretch to believe we'll have White Mages although, they'll probably be more focused on granting allies more Brave Points as opposed to healing, but we'll see.

eclipse Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Why does Ramza look so girly? ;/ Otherwise, this is a hell of a video! Cloud was expected/10, but still looks nice. Squall looks DAMN good in that uniform. Biggest surprise was WoL, IMO - I thought Cain had hopped over from FE to guest star! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Squalls very nice uniform is from this scene in particular! (This is for those unaware, i'm sure you are) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkDestr0yer61 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Do you think they will add characters like Nine from Type-0 or Noctis from 15? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 Do you think they will add characters like Nine from Type-0 or Noctis from 15? Pretty possible, I think Ramza opened the door for non-mainliners and I think Noctis will be like a shoe-in once 15 actually comes out.
