Fan Fiction Dissidia 012 Discussion

Feck you all with your bouncing bosom obsession :jtc:

To be fair, we've never really seen them bounce before, so there's not much to miss :wacky:

And I can't really tell a reduction in bust for Tifa-it still looks the same to me. If anything, I noticed how her shoulders seem broader than her character art.

By the looks of the trailer's subbing, it seems that the "bad guys" still have their memories. I guess it's because they're the ones that have been winning the battles?

WoL seems like he has some issues in this prequel, so I'm interested to see what's up O.O
 
Its not an obsession its more of an............appreciation of the finer things in life.

WOL has issues apart from being a wuss and a mommas boy? I always liked coming up with witty 1 liners against his holier than thou attitude.

The line he says to cloud:"A closed mind will dull your blade"

And to that I say " no what will dull my blade is belting the living snot out of your armor little man!"

Still just awaiting the release of this game.
 
Where'd you get "wuss" and "momma's boy" in respect to WoL? xD

As for "holier than thou", hmmm...I don't agree with that, but he does have this enchanting charisma about him. He also seems to be closest to Cosmos out of the other warriors, so maybe there might be something to that? :hmmm:
 
I just dont think much of the guy is all.

Yeah he is holier than thou Fusion........he is pompous and talks down to his allies, like Cloud and Squall, I lurve defeating him with Sphiroth and seeing his pompous ass get whupped, all in all WOL vs Sephiroth makes more sense in terms of a Good versus Evil.

WOL is a chicken wuss.
 
I always took him as being more courageous if anything, running into enemy territory all the time for his allies' sakes etc :gasp:

And I thought they'd be bigger, considering how her sprite looked :wacky:
 
I cant wait for the US Release. 3 new confirmed characters, semi 2-on-2 playing, 2 new areas, data import, chaos storyline,... i could go on and on!
 
More Tifa-related articles, plus a close-up of Cloud's new outfit:

I'll translate these once I can be bothered to read them.

Also a screen of Tifa battering Cloud into a wall:

20101019_733418.jpg




EDIT1: The first pic doesn't have anything worth translating, it just says 'Tifa from VII arrives, showing some elegant combat moves' and the part on the bottom is just the basic story of DDFF.


EDIT2:
The headline along the top of pics 2 and 3 say: "Even if they lose their memories, the Lifestream connects the two together".

Pic 2, top right screen: "It's nice of you to finally meet an enemy that is not an Imitation (Maninkin)". The enemy talked about here isn't revealed.

Pic 2, left side: Ultimecia appears at Tifa's back, and says "this is the end". Below that Golbez tells Ultimecia "that is not true, this will not be the end". I have no idea what this is about.

Pic 2, middle right screen: Tifa uses a potion on Kain, saying "I will not believe that". The text underneath the screen says something about Kain telling Tifa about a fact about the side of Cosmos that is hard to believe.

EDIT3:
The table on the top-right of pic 3 shows which characters have been announced do far. It also says that the estimated number of new characters will range from 4-10.

For the 3rd pic, I'll just translate from the top screen downwards as these seem chain together:

1st screen: Tifa says to Cloud "hey, thanks for helping me"

2nd screen: Cloud replies "I'm just 'kimagure'" (Kimagure translates to something along the lines of fickle or capricious). The heading of this screen says "the two protect each other instinctively even without their memories"

3rd screen: Seph says "then shall I be your opponent?". I don't know what is meant by this, but it'll be awesome if Seph kills Tifa and Cloud get's angry and regains his memory.

The things on the bottom of the 3rd pic is just of Cloud and Tifa fighting in their new outfits.



Memory is a key concept in DDFF then. It kind of explains why Cloud was talking to Kuja about important memories in the trailer. Like I said, I'll love it if Seph kills Tifa (or just sends her back to her original world) and Cloud takes revenge. Either that or Cloud goes berserk due to unknown/false memories like in VII.

And talking of loss of memories, this was a massive part of FFVIII too. Maybe Ultimecia plays a big part in DDFF. If so, I think we can expect a new character from VIII as well (possibly Seifer). Hopefully.

with these images they also said that the number of new characters had been comfirmed:

IT WILL BE BETWEEN 4 TO 10 !!!!

Let's hope its more than four because that would be lame.
 
The Tifa Lockhart screens look great. I love that one in the scan above. She looks like she is kicking some serious ass xD. The Advent children costume in High quality looks great. Nothing compared to the AC movie Tifa though. Also that last line 4-10 characters? I am expecting around 6 at most >.>
 
asdfghjkl

Is that Tifa in CGI in the first scan? Gorgeous :jess:

And Ultimecia...as Tifa's back up? o_O

I'm guessing that may potentially be part of Tifa's story. Maybe she's pulling some strings with Tifa and will probably betray her later like she did in Squall's story back (er, forward) in Dissidia?

I'm really interested about what's going here. So far a lot of people seems really friendly with each other regardless of the Cosmos/Chaos sides :hmmm:
 
I think I'm in love with the way Tifa looked in her original attire with upgraded graphics =X

Yes I'm most certainly in love and would most likely buy the game just for her if I had money to just blow on a PSP. But unfortunate I does not. No PSP for me :sad3:

sorry, what I meant was Ultimecia attacking Tifa from behind, I don't think they're going to be allies (or are they :gasp:).


I found some information about Tifa's actual fighting style:


Her concept is "Feint Striker". Even though she specializes in bare-fisted combat, unlike the power-hitting Jecht she uses quick speed and feints to mislead the opponent. Even if her attack misses, she can still chain it into a combo, which makes up for her short reach.

In her Ex-mode she equips Premium Heart, and the higher her Ex-gauge is, the more damage she can deal, so it's better to go attack aggressively after entering Ex-mode.

Whilst using an attack, you can cancel it using X and Tifa will move into the space behind the opponent, enabling her to attack from behind. This is her 'feint' move. Dependning on her attack this can be done at any desired timing, but it takes some time to get used to. Not only can you use feints to move closer to the opponent, you can simply use it to move around the stage quickly.

Her Ex-burst is slot and is pretty much the same as in VII: 'Miss' means missed attack, 'Hit' means a successful hit and 'Yeah' means critical hits. She finishes with an arranged form of Final Heaven.

I can see Tifa rivaling Tidus as an annoying, fast character then; she might turn out to be a tough opponent in online matches. Hopefully she'll have some long-ranged attacks so that she doesn't get battered by Terra, Kuja etc.


and some info on the new Assist system:

Assist lock: The 'assist characters' aren't invincible; if you successful hit them with an attack, they will go away without doing any attacks of their own and they will not be available to be called upon for a while.

Assist change: Whilst taking a combo attack, you can switch with your assist character and they will take the hit for you (this is the replacement for the Ex-mode defence, which has been removed). If you use up 2 assist bars you can escape the combo without any risk, but if you only use 1 bar your assist character will get hit and will get locked. You use L+square to use 2 bars, L+circle to use one.

Assist charge: When you counter attack whilst in trouble your assist gauge will recover very quickly. If you have low bravery this will result in recovering 1 bar, and doing this with low hp will recover 2 bars.

I'm loving this new system, it'll add a new dimension to fights. I can't wait (as a Firion user, and if this kind of thing is possible) to use a combo like Squall assisting with Beat Fang and Firion landing a Straight Arrow (which apparently, is quicker than the first Dissidia :awesome:)

I do like me some fast characters :lew:

But I confess, for Tidus, while I could handle him a lot more easily than other characters, I could never master him perfectly. I missed often with some of his attacks and it was only his speed that managed to recover those misses >_<

Although I like this feint attack for Tifa, but I wonder how it could be countered :hmmm:
 
Ooh, thanks for those translations, man! "I'm just fickle?" the hell does that mean? :x Cloud's so moody. :hmmm:

I was hoping SE would have given some of their stories in that scan, but whatev. :{
 
Will these assist characters be from all the different final fantasy games? If so I can see Rydia and all those as assist characters really.
 
4-11 Characters? :hmmm: As in games through 4-11 or is that talking about how many new characters will be added?

/blonde
 
How many new characters will be added of course :ffs:
 
Watch them completely ignore FFIX. :sad3:

However, on a serious note, in my humble opinion this is more of Dissidia 1.5 instead of a sequel. :hmmm:
