Fan Fiction Dissidia 012 Discussion

Ah, I thought he was talking about the actual game. I'm sorry jdcloud >.>

I don't think we'll get a English demo, though. Too close to the release date now.
 
The demo is called Prologus, right? Wasn't that trademarked in NA and EU? I think we may see it available for everyone. At the very least you need to buy it if you want Assist Aerith (I think) :hmmm:
 
^ I thought Prologus was a completely different game...Guess I got confused somewhere along the lines lol

So Gil is a Assist?
Found by InfinityNegima of GameFAQs and myself.

That's just what it says...Assist characters. This is odd, Aerith is in the assist area, but the grid shows her as a character... :O
 
She does, from what we've seen. The same for Gil and everything...she's played off as an actual playable character, but Nomura said Assist.

:O
 
I took his previous statements as lies since a week later he said something completely different or the opposite happened. He's not really obliged to tell the truth, so yea, I think he lied, or the company made him do so. If he's changed what he said for earlier characters/statements, he can do it again to throw us off :P
 
Yea, but he deserves to hint at lies, or lie or do anything really. Better sales and all that, I suppose. Though I don't appreciate lies, especially when he said 4 new characters and then one week later said 10 and now we don't know how many are left xD
 
Six more characters yet to be added ? Woot ! There's hope left for FF6-FF9 characters after all ! :yay:

Gives SE a big giant kiss :8F:


I'm hoping for

FF 2 - Leon. I was playing the original Dissidia last night, and I was thinking why don't they add in Leon ? He would make a good and mysterious
chaos character, and being the dark knight he could be a henchman to Chaos or something, and Firion can be like "noooooooo " Leon, don't follow the darkness !
:gasp:

FF3- Xande. He did after all summon
Dark Cloud


FF6- Celes. Come on please ! Celes is really awesome ! She's so pretty, and powerful and her Ex- mode thingy could be that runic thing she does. Celes !

FF9- Princess Garnet. They could make her a little bit different from Yuna and we could have awesome SUMMONER VS SUMMONER BATTLES. RAWR. :domo:

FF13- Cid Raines or Jhil/ Jill.

FF1- A female WOL. Maybe she could represent Red Mage, or White Sage like how WOL represents Fighter. And then we could all create create cute WOL x WOL fan fictions !
 
Well, there are empty places, but we can't be sure those are "character" empty places, but it does appear to be so.

I just want to see some Eiko. I loved her character so much in the game, oh and Beatrix. Though to be honest, all the FF9 characters are great, even Steiner (did I spell it right?), so I wouldn't mind another character, it would just be awesome if it was Eiko or Beatrix :P
 
Aerith Assist attacks:

Also new information has been released.

Regarding Dissidia Duodecim Final Fantasy, Square Enix plans on offering costumes and Final Fantasy series music as download content.

Also here are some information about the Dissidia Duodecim Ultimania Guides.

Dissidia Duodecim Final Fantasy will be getting two volumes of Square Enix's absurdly thick Ultimania guide. Vol.1 is tentatively titled "Action Side." Vol.2 is tentatively titled "RPG Side."

A retailer lists Action Side for for March 10 and RPG Side for March 31. Prices are not listed.

The original Dissidia also got two Ultimania books, a 125 page "Alpha" version, which served as a general introduction to the game, and a full 703 Ultimania book, which covered the game in full.

Ah, Aerith's assist moves sound great! So is Gil an assist and not a playable character? That's what its coming off as....

Maybe the rest of the characters will be assist and none playable? :)
 
I doubt Gil is Assist only, considering that he has an Ex mode and all :hmmm: in fact, bar Aerith every released character has an Ex mode confirmed if i'm not mistaken. A trait that assist characters lack.
 
Hasn't Gilgamesh already had some of his moves explained though? His random sword damage (Excalibur / Excalipur or something similar) and such. I thought there was a breakdown of some of his moves. I admit I didn't read it, but I saw it here somewhere and it looked like more than what an assist character would have. For anything too advanced you'd think he'd be playable.

I think all this assist confusion is likely because of translation issues. We frankly don't have much of a clue what they are saying at all.

I think that Gilgamesh has probably had his assist moves explained (as seen in Spawn's above post), similar to how all characters will also have moves that they'll do as an assist, but it just happens to have caused confusion because Gilgamesh's assist moves were revealed at the same time as Aerith's, who has been stated as an assist only DLC character, but may be more.

That's what I think anyway. I think we're all just confused now, and I guess all we can do is wait to see what they say.
 
Mmh... what if Aerith is not only an assist character, but she's playable? I know Nomura said she's only an assist, but I don't believe him completely. Anyway, I don't agree with this choice... why didn't they add another playable character, instead of an assist? That's weird -.-

What about the Prologus NA and EU release date? Do you think it will be translated into English and other EU languages?
 
Dengeki's report on Dissidia Duodecim Final Fantasy has some details on how the story for the original Dissidia will be incorporated into the new game. You'll recall that the original's story, referred to as 13, is included in Duodecim, whose story is referred to as 12.


​

12's story is played in a set order. Once you've cleared it, you'll gain access to 13. You're free to play 13 in whatever order you like. The story of 13 exists as a section of a dungeon in Duodecim.

(Try not to be confused -- the sequel's story is the lower number! The 12 and 13 refer to the number of the battle between Chaos and Cosmos. Consult your favorite Wiki for more details.)

Dengeki also has a few details on the game's quest creation system. As previously detailed, you can create original quests, which can be sent out to other players. By making use of character icons, you'll be able to create mini stories for these quests. You can also create event scenes.

It looks like the official site will be distributing quests too. The summaries of Dengeki's story don't mention anything about the downloadable music and costumes that Dengeki Games mentioned (see below.)

Nomura is interviewed in the magazine and says that they'll be adding stuff until the very limit. He jokes that if they make another Dissidia, they'll have to change the hardware.

So she's just an assist character :sad3:

I'm still happy :griin:

Her attacks sound wicked! :yay: I've got a question, though... if Aerith's assisting these characters, does that mean she has an existence in this battle? Obviously she can't be played, but how can she assist these characters if she doesn't have a part in the storyline?

I guess I'm just wondering if Aerith(storyline-wise) can be apart of the story while not being played? If not, how can she assist characters if she's not even present during the rest of the game?

Basically, how can she assist these characters if she doesn't have some kind of existence within the storyline?

(I hope I made some sense :C)
