Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy

*Note, I'll be including the first one in this review, but mostly the second one because that's the one I played recently

The game features many characters from the Final Fantasy series and something about a battle between Cosmos and Chaos. So like, a more serious Theatrhythm I guess.


So I was super pumped about this game. Well, the original. I love Final Fantasy and here is a game with a bunch of them thrown in together? Yes please! I almost bought a PSP just for this. But I'm glad I didn't. The battle system is odd, and I suck at it, and the game is mostly battles. The story comes in small chunks usually and isn't very investing. Some of the characters have become exaggerated versions of themselves. Overall it just wasn't fun. And this isn't a game I played for the deep story, it was for fun and to see the characters together.


Another disappointment in 012 is how much Lightning there was. Like sure, give me one of my least favourite FF characters and shove her down my throat some more. It was an instant heart drop when I started the game and OH LOOK WHO YOU GET TO PLAY AS. I'm sick of her. I'm sick of Lightning. I didn't like her to begin with. But um anyways,


This just isn't my type of game and it wasn't what I was expecting I suppose. But that doesn't mean its not for everybody. It does have the games thrown together so you can see how characters from different games would react, which is neat. And it's got a fast paced and unique battle style, which some might enjoy. So if you're a fan of the series, it might be worth looking in to
