Tried out party mode in Quick Battle and must say its is pretty smurfing awesome. Especially since you're whole party gets levels but you only switch out a character when they are finally defeated... Meaning I've been raising levels for the new characters by just using Kain to rape all the opponents. The new Rule system is also pretty awesome. EX-Centric rules means that EX-core will automatically fill up your gauge and it depletes incredibly slowly... I'm sure every Cloud and Gabranth player will insist on using these rules.

Assist rules is similar with the assist gauge filling up almost everytime you land an attack, BRV Centric makes the amount of BRV you earn from stage bravery and attacks really high making for excellent quick battles. In party mode you also get to assign job classes to characters that affect their abilites in combat. There is a bunch of variety for combat now.

Actually, after playing through with Tifa a lot in the single battles (got her up to level 20 on the first day, IIRC), I was really disappointed with how long it took to get to her story mission, because I think she is incredibly fun to play.

And I used the old Dissidia 1 to 100 levelling against Exdeath when I started my actual playthrough (first one was just messing around with the systems). It is quite a bit harder now that he has better attacks (chaining blocks into ranged HP attacks and new abilities like Maelstrom) and a max HP over 9999, but I managed it anyway. Even on Maximum difficulty, Exdeath is nothing compared to the awesomeness that is Tifa. At level 18, he's a pushover. :)

She was the only one I used the quicklevelling on, and just because I had used her the most and already knew how to use her, and to see if the trick still worked. Which it does. I have the Replay here. Can't figure out how to upload it to the site though (seriously, what happened to the link options? :(), but I'll try putting it on YouTube in a minute.

Tifa requires more finesse than I care for so I probably won't use her as a main, she's not a bad character but I've got little time to master her. Besides the real challenge of the Ex-Death fight isn't winning, its winning while still getting the KP under the dungeons rules (90 seconds, and Tifa is too low level to break him easily right now) and get the AP bonus as well, so its more of me just making the situation harder by getting suckered into the rewards.

As for quick leveling... I learned that the enemies are based on whatever average your first character is. So switching Kain out for my Lv. 100 Terra in Party mode, and removing her EXP to EX ability, I've been doing pretty well leveling everybody even if it is a bit challenging since I'm still using Lv. 1 gear. I've had to lower my opponents difficulty but its also allowing me to access more stuff from the shop since I'm actually getting real gil and Battlegen items from my opponents.

Here we go.

My first upload to YouTube, and my first Replay save.

For those wondering, Exdeath has three pieces of Genji Gear and the Wyrmhero Blade equipped. Forgot to put that in the description, will have to edit it.

Has anyone made it to the 000 Storyline and stood up against Feral Chaos? >.> (Not the one you fight against with Lighting at level 1, the level 95 one in the gateway.)

Edit: Never mind. I just beat him a few seconds ago. Tough little :bou::bou::bou::bou: he is :o

Haven't had the self control to save up the PP for the 000 storyline yet. Really wanted those alternate costumes for Cloud of Darkness ^_^

But I did the Lightning Level 1 vs. Feral Chaos. That was fun. =(

I was going to save up for it, but after you beat the 013 storyline it's already bought for you. Or at least it was for me. I went to buy it and it was there.

Am I the only person who has noticed that in every characters story scenario, there is always one treasure chest filled with the amount of gil that happens to be the same year of the games release?

I didn't notice that. That's neat!

*mindblown*

Some more DLC costumes have been announced in Japan. Sephiroth get's his KH costume and Laguna gets to wear his costume from the crappy movie he was in to make money for his travels. :D

Not to mention more music has been announced as DLC packages.

Here's a list of all the DLC thus far.

Why is it in French?

Cause they have their :bou::bou::bou::bou: together more than us English speaking blokes. :D

I was saddened that the overworld music for Tifa's campaign wasn't the FF7 world map theme. That was a mighty good theme. :(

But the Eyes on Me theme on the overworld for Laguna was awesome.

I did notice this and I found it rather awesome, it amused me greatly, I laughed a hearty laugh, chuckled a seeming long time.
But really I did notice and it was awesome I am happy to see they pulled this, but that means that the poor Warrior of Light is the one with the least amount of gil... first he gets no name and now no gil! What more will they do to that horrifying beast of a man with a silly pointy helmet who keeps kicking my but in this new game!

When all the other Cosmos warriors started calling Lightning, Light. WoL must've been absolutely livid. Even his substitute name has been usurped.
