As of now this is the first game in the FF series I'm not buying at launch since... well, I didn't buy FFXI. So I guess since XI? It feels really weird to me. I'm so used to just grabbing them all right away!

Terra/Tina with green hair alts was something I'd hope be ready before release. All the other alts/palette swaps look great, too!

When is this supposed to release? Not an FF guy at all but I had good times with Dissidia 012.

Same but this feel like it is nothing comparable to the first 2 games.
No leveling, no crafting, no customizations, no unique battle quote depending on the opponent, no more overworld nor grib based solo campaign, focus on 3 vs 3, limited moveset since you don't learn new skills.
Everything that made those games awesome was thrown out of the window.

You still level up, but you only learn new HP attacks, and the rest is voice lines, costumes, and colors.

There are also weapons, but that is purely cosmetic.

Still very different from the PSP games though.

*Reads "alternate character costumes" and gets excited.

*Looks for the superior Punished Noctis outfit.

Argh! They were SO close! But it's only younger Noctis with the king outfit. Sigh...maybe some day.

Also Cecil and Golbez better be freaking getting their After Years looks too if Kain has his. I want King Cecil and Unmasked Golbez.

Music was pretty cool but the APOCALYPSIS NOCTIS remix sounds off to me.

Nice we have Nomura art for Noctis!

My boy. Why wouldn't Noctis be in KH3? Nomura is gonna put Noctis in there some way.

During a poll that was conducted Noctis came out #1, Nomura implied that the story was written already so there wasn't space to include requested characters for KH3. The poll seem to gather which characters people want to see for future entries.

Ugh I really want this game but at the same time I still don't like the 3 vs. 3 players matches (it looks too confusing), hopefully they will later reconsider and add a 1 vs. 1 mode or something.

Noctis looks great and fun to play, maybe I'll play with him if/when i buy the game, also seeing new artwork for Noctis made by Nomura is awesome.

Has Yuna been confirmed yet?

EDIT: I also totally didn't know the Lost Time Zone from FF8 was the same as the flower field Rinoa was in in the opening cutscene.

Really bummed that his alt is Baby King Noctis, but his gameplay looks awesome. If I end up picking it up going to try maining him.

Edit: Really like the FF15 remixes. The Dissidia remixes have been hit or miss, but I think most of these are fine.

God I can't wait for this

Just really hope the netcode is solid. Gundam Versus was unplayable for me since I'm saddled with bullshit Australian Internet

At first I was about to say they are so damn lazy with the VIII stage just being the time compression void but then it switches to the feather field and now I'm so excited. That alternate white colouring for the SeeD uniform looks great too.

Now just give me a Squall alternate costume that is his original VIII look please and thank you.

Definitely prefer his final outfit, it's more contemporary and matches the earth-like fantasy XV had going. This is basically the usual SuperCool Zipup Gear™ that Nomura draws half the time. ;/

Anyways, great Dissidia news, but I do hope we can move onto the second wave of non-leads. :)

I feel bad for Nomura having to draw not-his-son-anymore but then best Noctis is Old Noctis.

After TK7 reveal this doesn't hype me up as much , perhaps because I'm still not feeling the 3v3 flying battle

That artwork of Noctis looks so off compared to how he looked in his own game which is odd since it's drawn by his original creator. Did they update his design after Nomura left the project?
