      @The:

      What's Up With All The Capital Letters At The Start Of each word?

      Anyway, I love how they play the overworld themes of the respective games when a character is on the story-board. Though I wish they'd kept the classic "Victory tune!"

      Force of Habit

      @Hakuro:

      (This is in response to everyone asking why people just don't like FFVII anymore, not one specific response or another)

      WARNING: Anti-FFVII Rant follows. Please do not read unless you either also do not like FFVII, do not care about FFVII, or you can respect someone's opinions. Note that I do not bash the fans in the following rant, so rest assured!

      ! I will admit that FFVII was decent, but here's the deal. Take away it's advances in graphical and musical quality for just a second, the storyline just wasn't that great in comparison. Most of FFVII's hype started out with it's enhancement in graphics and music over the past Final Fantasies. That hype was further proceeded by a villain they supposedly thought whose personality and appearance was 'unique'. That was an illusion. His personality was pretty much a rehash of Kefka, just adding in emo tendencies and mommy issues. His appearance was a rehash of Setzer, just with less flash and more black to them. Everyone thought his 'One Winged Angel' form was badass and also unique. Kefka's god form did it first and did it better, sorry to say.
      ! The Storyline of FFVII, as I have said, isn't all that great. You start out as a former soldier for an electric company (In FFVI, you were a former soldier of an Empire) who seeks to stop said electric company from seizing control of a power source (Empire taking control of Espers from FFVI…? anyone?) Along the road, the main character has a flashback to a person who had a very high rank in the electric company's military (Terra had a flashback which had Kefka in it about as early on... yeah...) Throughout the story, they gain a colorful cast of characters including an airship pilot with a very large ego (Setzer...?), another fellow traitor from the same electric company (Celes...?), a ninja (Shadow...?), a talking animal from the mountains (That qualifies as either Mog OR Umaro), a person whose past is shrouded in mystery (Gogo or Shadow, take your pick). Along the way, they find that the president of said electric company has been struck down by said antagonist (Emperor Gestahl was killed by Kefka)...
      ! I need not go on. But can you see my point, with the exception of a few specifics, a number of changes to the cast to make them seem more unique, the entire story of FFVII is so much like FFVI, it's not even funny. There are only two differences that make FFVI better. First, Kefka actually attained godhood. Second, FFVI's storyline was written first. Also, the writing quality of Advent Children seemed more fanservicey than anything I could really say was good. Do you guys want more Final Fantasy VII? Sure, we can do that! Want more Angsty Cloud scenes? Fantastic! We got just the thing for you! Want Aeris/Zack/Sephiroth to make an appearance in the movie? We can do that! We can even throw in a Cloud vs. Sephiroth scene for you just for kicks!

      Now you can keep a hold of your liking for Final Fantasy VII in any form that you've played it in, be it Playstation 1, PC, even one of the many spinoffs on DVD, PS2, and/or PSP… I won't hold such things against you personally because I don't enjoy doing so. However, I think I'll hold onto my Final Fantasy VI and I believe I adequately explained why above, thank you.

      I Completely Agree &
      The Whole Compilation of Final Fantasy VII Bullshit Pisses Me Off

      What I didnt finish saying earler…...
      FFVII Will all hold a special place in the hearts of fanboys/girls & gamers alike
      for a lot of you who are younger than lets say 21,
      this was the first real RPG Played after Pokemon(At Least From What I Heard)
      (I Say You Because Mine Was The Legend Of Dragoon)
      & It Set The Standard for most playstation era RPGs

      What i want to say is that
      FFVIII:The Movie
      or
      Final Fantasy V: Legend of the Crystals:The Game(On The PS3)
      Is Something that is Needed instead of all the attention lavished on VII

      &
      There Are Plenty Of Moves That Fucking Trump "Supernova" Big Time i.e.
      Judgement Day,Tera-Graviton,Calamity(From Penance FFX)
      Megido Flame (From Omega Weapon FFVIII)
      Armageddon(From Nemesis FFX)

          lol Takinawa for a forum person, you're really plugging your ears when people say anything that's challenging your opinion, man. Shame on you.

          I already pointed out a lot of what you said and I totally agree with you.
          mini rant

          ! I think my enjoyment is connected directly to storyline and characters, and the plot in VII is very convoluted and tedious at times. The main villain is like you said, Kefka with the personality stirpped out in favor of cool poses and "mysteriousness". Which basically means, he runs around not doing or say much or being that villainous until the story crowbars in a finally "climactic" showdown between him and the "hero". Cloud seemed to be taking the antihero, loner archtype that was popular with characters like Shadow from VI and making him the MAIN CHARACTER, which just doesnt work. Not to mention, a lot of the characters are really underdeveloped and the plot twist were just poorly written attempts to shock you that just didnt need to be part of the story at all.
          FFVI's cast seem complex and genuine. Their personalities and relationships actually resembled human beings while FFVII they were basically just a group of anime archtypes. Which some people seem to be okay with but it was just annoying after playing an rpg with characters dealing with issues like trying to make ammends with a father who abandoned you to an rpg with characters who cry because everyone isn't paying attention to them or appreciating them enough.

                i'd like to see an anti-ffVII rant that doesn't incorporate the use of the word "Emo".

                seriously… in my rulebook, the game came out long before the whole emo fad started it's poisoning of minds.... hence, the melodramatic nature of specific ffVII characters (IMO) is not considered emo. (this statement has nothing to do with my previous video posting.. that was a joke)

                now, the way cloud acted in advent children is a different story for a different rant.

                  now, the way cloud acted in advent children is a different story for a different rant.

                  Okay, here's the deal. "Emo" is not cool. You find an emo person who acts genuinely emo, they are NOT FUN to be around. Likewise, you see an emo with superpowers and mommy issues, you kinda get Sephiroth. Sure, he's not as emo as Cloud is by a long shot, but he is still a little emo. The reason that the only word to describe Cloud as "Emo" is because he pretty much doesn't give a crap about anyone's issues.

                  Also, all you're stating is that Cloud and Sephiroth were Emo before Emo was Emo, that's it. For all you know, people wanted to act like Cloud and Sephiroth, be angsty and wear outfits like Sephiroth's, and that's why people walk around with black cloaks, chains, and the like and they just emulated the angstyness so well that it passed on to others, meaning that this would have invented Emo. You can never really know for sure, but the deal is, 'Emo' was pretty much always around, it just wasn't as big a fad that it deserved its own name and classification. People just grouped them with punk/goth until they managed to become so big in numbers that they branched out.

                  …and while Cloud was more visibly angsty in that movie, I will say that it was only because he had voice acting and facial expression. He was still as angsty in the original as he was in AC.

                    …I always thought one of the best things about FF VII was that Cloud went from cynical bastard (=not "emo") to genuinely likeably guy later in the game.

                    I mean, Emos' and bastards don't say "Everyone, let's mosey!"

                      Dammit, Sephiroth did not have mommy issues, he had "holy shit I'm made from an alien parasite" issues. I'm not a fanboy or anything, just the type to get irked when countless people get the same thing wrong.

                      I liked Sephiroth's whole deal, personally. He's this promising golden child, who totally loses his mind when he finds out he's a genetic freak. He snaps, and skipping all the little details, evolves into a demigod, to an etheral spirit-virus, etc. It's a pretty interesting overall concept, I thought. His design was good for its time, too. It's unfortunate that every RPG designer and his mother tried to replicate him in all the wrong ways.

                      I wouldn't classify Sephiroth as emo at all, really. The only part he could be considered as such would be when he initially snapped, and read all those books. Other than that, he was a generally zealotous, apocalyptic sadist. Often very calm, proclaiming the destruction of others with a smile. Just look at the guy in Advent Children. The guy doesn't whine, he mocks Cloud with a smile, and fights him DBZ-style to hardcore rock music.

                      I mean, that guy sure did smile alot for an emo…

                      @TakinawaTonfa:

                      So at any rate, it looks like you'll have to play as the heroes to get to villians, which are more than likely to be available in everything BUT story mode.

                      GOD FUCKING DAMMIT! Lame! LAME! LAAAAAAAME! I don't WANT to play as the heroes, god dammit, I don't like them! I hate Bartz and Cloud, but now I HAVE to play as them?!

                      You can suck my man-pickle, Square-Enix!

                      I am so setting the difficulty to super-easy, and blowing through story mode… Screw that crap, good guys can kiss my ass...!

                        ^Took the words right out of my brain Daz and Shmeckie:

                        @Hakuro- I get what you are saying… but as was mentioned by Daz and Shmeckie, the antagonist and protagonist of ffVII have more going on, than simply being "Emo"... I'm not saying they're personalities are great or completely redeemable, just not as pathetic as what "emo" means nowadays (to me it's a frivolous trend. These characters actually have decent reasons for their actions). Seph going insane over his birth and cloud having communication issues or being a flaky asshole doesn't count as Emo in my book. Angsty and Emo are not the same thing.

                        But all i'm saying is that, to me, someone claiming they dislike ffVII because the characters are "So Emo" doesn't have much credibility as an opinion. i dunno... it just sounds juvenile.

                        sorry about all this emo talk people... back to Dissidia:

                        The new screens look awesome. Boo for the single story mode... i'd like to see the game through both sides. But then again, the info implies we'll see enough of the villains to be satisfied.

                          Well, to the credit of the interview, they are vague about the the extra modes in the game where you can use the villians. I mean other than the standard online and VS.

                              I don't think Dissidia is anything more than a 1-on-1 fighter. As for the story mode, this oh-so-fun thing they're hinting to better damn well be so massively awesome if they're going to make me play as these androgenous cornballs to get to the good stuff…

                                        seriously… in my rulebook, the game came out long before the whole emo fad started it's poisoning of minds....

                                        X-play actually mentioned FFVII as "The rpg that was emo before emo was emo!"

                                        …I always thought one of the best things about FF VII was that Cloud went from cynical bastard (=not "emo") to genuinely likeably guy later in the game.

                                        Cloud was more selfish and self absorbed than cynical. Sephie was the one who seemed pretty cynical and bitter towards humanity.

                                          Angsty and Emo are not the same thing.

                                          Then please forgive my ignorance. I honestly don't mean any arrogance or sarcasm when I say this, but I have never seen angst come from anyone I know other than emos and I have never seen someone who I knew wasn't an emo who has never angsted at least once. Therefore, I classify the angsting of emos to be the same as the warking of chocobos. Only Emos can realy do it and others can only ever really mock it.

                                          So, therefore, that's just how I see it. If I am wrong, I am sorry for causing a long argument over a moot point and some poor wording.

                                          In any case, just wanted to add that in and that'll end my rant in this thread. Now to steer myself back on topic here…


                                          I will not play as Cloud or Sephiroth unless there is a Random Character Select in one mode or another and I don't have an alternative. I will try to go for Kefka, Cecil, Golbez, and Zidane. It'll be a shame that I'll have to unlock them and that I can't go through a story mode with the villains, but it'll be fine, I suppose.

                                            I'll probably blow through story on easy with Bartz (stupid-ass Bartz… With his ridiculous Japanese name and the ridiculous name of his hometown that just makes his Japanese name even more ridiculous), unlock Exdeath, then just play with Exdeath for a long-ass time before the "HOLY SHIT I'M PLAYING AS EXDEATH" high wears off. Probably gonna shoot for Sephiroth, Kefka, and Garland after him.

                                            I just hope the localization doesn't take too long…

                                                    @Gekko135:

                                                    ^Took the words right out of my brain Daz and Shmeckie:

                                                    @Hakuro- I get what you are saying… but as was mentioned by Daz and Shmeckie, the antagonist and protagonist of ffVII have more going on, than simply being "Emo"... I'm not saying they're personalities are great or completely redeemable, just not as pathetic as what "emo" means nowadays (to me it's a frivolous trend. These characters actually have decent reasons for their actions). Seph going insane over his birth and cloud having communication issues or being a flaky asshole doesn't count as Emo in my book. Angsty and Emo are not the same thing.

                                                    But all i'm saying is that, to me, someone claiming they dislike ffVII because the characters are "So Emo" doesn't have much credibility as an opinion. i dunno... it just sounds juvenile.

                                                    sorry about all this emo talk people... back to Dissidia:

                                                    The new screens look awesome. Boo for the single story mode... i'd like to see the game through both sides. But then again, the info implies we'll see enough of the villains to be satisfied.

                                                    & whats with all the emo talk without mentioning Squall
                                                    (Maybe Because You Guys Are Still On FFVII)
                                                    Squall started off as an "introverted, brooding, angst-driven, taciturn teenager who refuses to let anyone form a bond with him due to past abandonment" but as the game went on i think we all started to like him (Right?)

                                                    I Think the main problem with the Ps era FF Games (FFVII,FFVIII,&FFTatics,Not Including IX) Is that the heroes reflected the gen-x stereotypes that were all to common in popular media at the time.

                                                    Now we can look back in 2008 & dislike characters but at the time come on we all loved that kinda style
                                                    & to me at least thats why FFIX didnt do well with consumers at the time

                                                    We Wanted & Expected the same stuff as the previous titles & didnt get what we wanted

                                                        that sounds awesome Takinawa! Got any info on the other characters roles in the story?

                                                        All this info I got from another forum.

                                                        And this IS kinda spoiler territory, just a forewarning…

                                                        ! Warrior: Under the guidance of Cosmos, Warrior comes to learn of the state of the world as caught in the whirl of chaos. He sets out alone to find the one thing that can save the world - The Crystals. But along the way, the troops of Chaos attempt to knock him from the noble path. If the "truth" they preach is correct, then how can the Warrior continue to believe in the "Light?"
                                                        ! Firion: He begins his journey in the company of Cecil, Cloud, and Tidus. At first, he believes that "To find the Crystals will solve everything," but as he walks many paths, and meets new friends, his views gradually begin to change. He cannot believe in any dream but his own - and he sees the lessons of "The Wild Rose" as the key to the truth.
                                                        ! Onion: The Onion Knight is a young man who is wise beyond his few years. He is confident in the merits he has gained along the way, but hides the fact that he still harbors some of the fears of youth, and holds the aniexty behind his actions close to his chest. As they search for the Crystals, Onion comes to draw strength from his traveling companion, Terra. However, just as he is truly taking pride in himself, it might not be enough for them…
                                                        ! Cecil: While he is traveling together with Firion and Tidus, Cecil has his misgivings about if obtaining the Crystals is truly the answer. Then right before him, appears his brother Golbez, aligned with the troops of Chaos. Sometimes, his words appear to be advice for his younger brother, but is it only a trap to confuse Cecil? ...Thus Cecil finds himself torn between his mission as one serving Cosmos and the emotions he carries for his brother.
                                                        ! Bartz: Wishing to transform this crisis into a bit of fun, he and his fellow warrior Zidane propose to have a contest to see who will find the Crystals first. However, he is caught in their enemies' trap, and is flown off to the home base of the troops of Chaos. But he does not lose heart, and in escaping Bartz is triumphant in finding the Crystals. But on the path ahead, a greater trap may be waiting him.
                                                        ! Terra: Possessing a gentle, calm heart, Terra also weilds a great magical power in contrast to this kind nature, a power she cannot properly control. As she begins her journey to locate the Crystals, her cheerful companion Onion acts as a foil to her, but along the way a mysterious memory of hers suddenly vanishes. Soon, she will have to confront the truth hidden this missing time to win it back...
                                                        ! Cloud: While he finds Firion, Cecil, and Tidus to be reliable enough as comrades, Cloud finds himself becoming depressed. Why is he fighting? How long will he continue fighting? But he finds himself still strugglng to find and understand those answers. Then, Cloud finds a clue amid a discussion with his comrades. However, a "shadow" form his past seeks to block his progress.
                                                        ! Squall: Always the highest of achievers, he finds companions to be unnecessary. With this in mind, Squall seperates himself from the other warriors of Cosmos, and plans to find the Crystals on his own. Those traveling with Bartz find him, and express their concern over Squall, and he promises to meet up with them again. Even though this concern over his well-being leaves Squall feeling awkward. However, his heart is unconciously softening....
                                                        ! Zidane: "A competition to see who will find the Crystals first..." That is what Zidane offered his traveling companion Bartz. However, Bartz is caught in a trap laid out for Zidane, and falls into the hands of the troops of Chaos. Considering this to be his fault, Zidane is driven to right it by his feelings of worry. Zidane searches far and wide to help him, but is he only driven to protect his friend due to this sense of dread?
                                                        ! Tidus: Though he is seeking the Crystals, Tidus sets his sights on another target. The "detested old man" who treated him like brat with that swagger - he wants to take on Jecht. With his eyes set so firmly upon this goal, his traveling companions worry where this path is leading him with each and every step forward. But, Tidus' truth feelings about his father, almost unnoticed by himself, are still sleeping the depths of his heart.

If anything, the long-ass time it would take to localize the game (it's apparently very text and speech heavy) is most likely keeping them from setting any dates as of now.

                                                                        Also, Cloud's depressed in the story mode. Holy shit what a bombshell.

It turns out that it involves Frioniel using all 7 weapons against his opponent then using his bow to fire all of his other weapons at his opponent's face as a finishing move. Here is one screenshot displaying this. I'll get the second screenshot soon.

It turns out that it involves Frioniel using all 7 weapons against his opponent then using his bow to fire all of his other weapons at his opponent's face as a finishing move. Here is one screenshot displaying this. I'll get the second screenshot soon.

                                                                                        Have You Not Seen Butz/Bartz' EX Burst

In one screenshot, he is seen using Onion Knight's Flare spell. He has also been shown using Squall's Gunblade, as well as Zidane's Mage Mashers and Cloud's Buster Sword, and can apparently dual-wield as well, as he uses both the Buster Sword and the Gunblade at once. Exactly how this ability will work is unknown. In his EX Mode, "Brave Blade", three yellow stars, a sign of Job Mastery in Final Fantasy V, appear above his head, and he also gains the red cape from the

                                                                                        Mime job class in said game. In his EX Burst, "Rapid Fire Dual-Wield Spell Blades", he combines all nine weapons of his allies into one for a powerful attack. The attack name is a reference to one of the most popular strategies of Final Fantasy V - using Rapid Fire with Dual Wield and Spellblade to launch eight extra-strong attacks.

I know everyone hated that one, but she would be pretty bad ass with her guns. Or maybe she could mix warrior, thief, and gunner dresspheres (or better yet, switch between Rikku and Paine).

                                                                                                  "Where's yo' songs now, huh?! Gonna beat this shit with the power of love?! No! No you can't, bitch! Yay-uh! Go ahead! Dance and sing! It won't help ya! Know why? 'CAUSE THE LAWS OF THE UNIVERSE MEAN NOTHING! Sing that shit now! SING. THAT. SHIT. NOW!"

                                                                                                    "If real-time arena slugging isn't your thing, Square Enix has built in a Command Battle mode, which lets you issue orders to your character from a menu as in the turn-based games of yore. Once given their orders characters will perform them endlessly or till defeat, though you can command the brave souls to retreat by holding a trigger.

                                                                                                    Once you've mastered the art of dishing out the pain, you might want to record your antics with the game's theatre mode, or take photos of especially punishing blows with the in-game camera."
