2 days left before the 2nd anniversary stream, I'm getting hyped to know what'll be our 2nd Global first.
I have absolutely no idea though, but I'd be interesting and highly improbable to have The King from My Life as a King (loved that game)
That would be insane, but I would love it. I was shocked to hear freaking Sherlotta showed up, and I love her kit, so any more interesting left-field choices would also be appreciated.
My pick?
BENJAMIN.
They have been working on Rikku for a while though, so I wouldn't be shocked if that was the pick, but I'd go nuts if we got Mystic Quest reps.
Also, I know people want KH to be left out of this game, and I Agree, this already has a great feel for the franchise and while KH is my favorite series of all time, I don't think this game should draw from anything other then Final Fantasy.
...but like, so many characters in KH would bring amazing movesets with them. Lot's of potential there, just saying.
Edit: oh wait, I nearly forgot. I'm actually hoping for another CC rep, somebody with the potential to have a fun and elementally flexible moveset, and is near and dear to my heart...
...My Main Man, Al!!!
Freaking Alhanalem would be an awesome pick to me, he's a goofy scholar, he a Yuke, a unique looking character type, and a different looking one from the other Yuke as well, and he would definitely get his best and most useful ability from Ring of Fates, "Magic Thread", which in the home game would allow you to Trace on the touch screen, and passing over any dropped Magicite would imbue the thread with it's power, allowing you to deal Devastating damage to enemies and easily heal allies.
I could see this reflected in a Magicite icon above his head that changes depending on what element a character used to attack a foe, allowing his attacks to copy that element as well, giving him full elemental coverage depending on your teammates. To balance it out, it could be blank after he attacks, waiting for another character to use an elemental attack to refresh, barring an ability to reapply it or something.
It would be awesome, and it would be a unique and interesting attack style! I'm just hoping we get someone fun, regardless of who it is, but I'm hopeful that we get Al to work like this if he does show up, it's too accurate to how he works in game!
