Dissidia Duodecim: Final Fantasy

[Charismatic]

Anyone else hoping not only for the addition of some mechanics but the removal of some? (actually, just chase mode)

[Insanecyclone]

How about no ad-hoc multi and make it infrastructure

Chase was pretty fun I thought.

Hopefully they don't reuse a lot of characters. WoL/Garland I can understand, and Cecil to some extent due to Kain being the new villain from the looks of it.

Chase was fucking dumb and only served for shitty characters to actually have a chance to do damage. Remove it and design better move lists please.

[Elcura]

Better move lists yes yes yes. Although I could abuse chase mode easily on Gabranth for near infinite EX mode, it was really boring and easy to avoid. 2 barely aware people could endless avoid attacks until you break away automatically, effectively making the chase nothing more than a time waster.

Who thought straight arrow was a good move?

[Metah]

I liked Chase Mode.

Straight Arrow is a meh move compared to Firion's other HP attacks. Shield Bash is insanely good, Weaponmaster starts up slow but is easier to hit with I think. Besides, you could chain his Brave attacks into HP attacks, so you wouldn't even need Straight Arrow or Weaponmaster for Firion.

[Kiarax]

Yeah, Firion was one of those characters who had to rely on chase mode early on to do anything since he starts with fucking terrible moves. Ended up being my favourite character once you get his extensions and better moves, but early on he fucking sucks.

[Charismatic]

But, really... nearly everyone sucked early on.
Low levels in Dissidia were honestly not interesting in the least which is part of the reason that when the game came out stateside I didn't even bother to touch it again.

Chase mode was so fucking annoying.

Also, add Edgar from VI.

Fucking Chainsaw ur ass

Oh how I wish I learnt japanese

[Elcura]

I dunno what I'm looking at (apart from movelists), but it's kinda pretty.

[Mjd]

was hoping someone knew the moonlanguage

the 2nd image is just the movesets on intro/normal/hard modes, characters are Lightning, Kain, Frionel (Firion, FF2), Cloud, and Kuja. Lightning will be able to switch between 3 jobs from FF13 by pressing R and L (looks like COM, RAV, and MED)

[Charismatic]

Well, if nothing else... from those screens we see that Lightning is gonna have Paradigms.

EDIT: GOD DAMN IT ARTEIDES.

[Elcura]

Kinda looks like everyone might have paradigm shifts, but I can't read moonspeak, so I dunno. If it's just Lightning, that's kinda cool, but the whole cast? That might be awesome.

As a totally new 012 feature, each character is listed with an assist character, whom you can call out for support in battle. As you use Brave Attacks, you build up your Assist Gauge. Using 1 Memory from this gauge, you can call out your assist character to perform a Assist Brave Attack (L + Circle). Using 2 Memories, you can have the character perform an Assist HP Attack (L + Square).

Words can not explain my excitement.

One of the screenshots with Lighting looks like a Chase sequence.
