Dissidia Duodecim Final Fantasy (PSP) announced

[Wolf Kanno]

Yeah, I really liked the dialogue and interactions between them; they just aren't all that diverse

You're going to need to give me an example cause I seriously can't understand where you are coming from with this statement. Like dunit697, an example of what you consider a "diverse party of personalities" would help to establish where you're coming from here. I seriously just can't wrap my head around your statement, it is that foreign of a concept to me cause I personally feel VI has the most diverse party of personalities in the series. I think you're going to give me an aneurysm by having me think about you're statement, like that girl I overheard who said "If it wasn't for my horse, I wouldn't have spent that year in college"

Am I the only one a little annoyed they picked Vaan instead of Balthier?

No, you and pretty much everyone else have this sentiment. I would have preferred Basch (but he probably would be too samey) or Lady Ashe (cause she's better than Lightning and I just knew I wasn't going to get Faris) so you are definetly not alone.

As for the possible "no VI or IX" debate, another bit of info from the hacked demo gives some hope. A pretty awkward screen that suggests a few more faces may show up. Chances are, anymore character announcements will be made before March 3rd, so we still have a month for more crazy revelations.

I like Vaan, and in this game, they really turned him into a formidable fighter.

And I think they should have added Faris, so that Bartz doesn't have to face Exdeath and Gilgamesh alone on his own; two villains against only one hero is bad.

[dunit697]

2 to 1 is better than 1 to 0 as shantatto and Gabranth were in the original and how possibly lightening will be. There were enough heroes added that it will more than compensate. rather than trying to get 4 characters from V lets try to get 3 from VI and IX first.

[Skyblade]

If we do get another XIII character, I'd guess Cid Raines.

[SuperMillionaire]

Well then, Bartz will have to ask someone from ANOTHER WORLD to help him?

Of all the ff 12 characters, I liked Vaan least of all.

EDIT:

I don't know about that. I enjoyed FFVI's cast, but they weren't very different from each other personality-wise. They each had a gimmick, but there was nothing much separating them beyond that.

Terra-Black mage (cloud-like)

Locke-Treasure Hunter/fighter I would say (quirky theif...ahem, treasure hunter)

Cyan-samurai-that bushido would be interesting in dissidia (deep, silent samurai type)

Cyan is anything but silent, if anything he talks too much, always sticking his nose in things to try and correct morals, he was kind of like a counselor. Locke really has some moments where he is quite deep, but on terra you are right on the mark if you consider the cloud immediatly after Aerith leaves the party for the last time

Of all the ff 12 characters, I liked Vaan least of all.

I think Fran would have been a million times better, seeing as she is a 'Weapons Master'. Besides we need more female non-human characters.

[Hollycat]

YES Fran should have been the choice, the game needs an archer, also another good female

[Hot Shot]

I think they added Vaan because they want to show the fans that he is the main character of the game (even though he took back seat after the first couple of hours). But truth be told I quite liked him and I think I might use him a lot in duodecim. My brother said "you like those kind of characters a lot", because I like the fast characters like Zidane and Bartz...at least I think he meant that

[dunit697]

Your right hypoallergenic cactuar, I was going through them rather quick and multi-tasking, ya, cyan or mr sir is pretty chatty, strong moral code type than. And Locke can be deep, I honestly didn't look to deeply at him, he can be creepy too looking at how he treated his ex, a bit of obsession there, but feel free to to a better analysis of him.

[Hot Shot]

I dunno why people are complaining that FFV has two villains. I mean, come on, all of the added characters are cosmos (at least I think so) so why are people saying it isn't fair on Bartz.

And you don't need me to say that VI's cast was far from bland, but it's all a matter of opinion.

And it would have been cool if Versus XIII had come out before Duodecim because they could have put Noctis in it which would be uber awesome.

[Darkwolf090]

If they added Noctis wouldnt that be uh... unfair? Judging from what I have seen via the trailers the only way I can see him working is if they limit him to 1 weapon or something maybe his EX form having all 13 lol

Also! Any sign of us getting the Demo?

[Roogle]

Am I the only one a little annoyed they picked Vaan instead of Balthier?

Yes, I feel the same way. I would have been content with any other playable character taking up a slot rather than Vaan or Penelo.

[Darkwolf090]

I wanted Bosche so I can do Brother vs Brother.... but in the end I am a little happy to have Vaan.... I have a new training dummy to kill other then Onion Knight

[LowCaloriePie]

If they added Noctis wouldnt that be uh... unfair? Judging from what I have seen via the trailers the only way I can see him working is if they limit him to 1 weapon or something maybe his EX form having all 13 lol

Well Firion gets to keep all of his weapons.
