For all those saying it's going to like Ehrgeiz, The boumcer, and what not, Dream Factory isn't working on any of these games .

As far as the Art goes, I don't see what problem in these the designs are , pretty much everything the Characters had on in the original work is on them only in his style. Franky, while he may not be greatest artist ever or whatever, but he's decent designer. FFXIII's Main female is my favorite of his.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Lots of nice info from the scans!

Quote:

Here are some highlights:

- Main menu options include: Story Mode, Quick Battle, Multiplayer Mode, PP Catalog, Museum, Player Data Settings, and Options.

- Story Mode is the game's main campaign mode, Quick Battle allows you to pick a character and play non-story battles like a fighting game. You can use data from the Story Mode in Quick Battle.

- Multiplayer Mode allows two players to challenge each other over ad-hoc. PP Catalog allows you to unlock Alternate Costumes and Battle BGMs by spending PP that you gain in Story Mode and Quick Battle mode.

- The Museum allows you to replay movies from the Story Mode that you've seen, as well as tunes you've unlocked in the PP Catalog. Player Data settings allows you to change the player name, and other player settings. The Option menu allows you to change camera settings, and select Data Install options.

- The Data Install feature supports 3 levels of install: 245meg, 373meg, and 528meg. The more you install, the shorter the load times will be.

- You can equip a weapon, a glove, a helm and a piece of armor in the Item menu. Equipment will alter your stats which include HP, CP, Drive, Attack, Defense and Luck.

- CP = Capacity Points. The amount maximum CP you have determines how many and what Abilities you can equip.

- Battlelize (?) is an option in the Customization Menu that displays special conditions or actions in battle whereby if you pull it off you get bonus items and/or materials. Materials can be exchanged in the Shop Menu for Rare Items.

- The Mission Menu in the Customization Menu displays a challenge (like an achievement I suppose, the example given is 'Successfully execute a HP Attack 50 times'). Whenever you complete the Mission, you will be rewarded with a Rare Item, and another Mission will be available.

- There is a Chocobo in the sidescrolling 16-bit window below your stats in the Customization menu. This is a sort of minigame. The Chocobo will scroll along as you complete battles, and it can pick up items along the screen as it passes them as well as provide bonus experience points and so on.

- A new evasive system is also revealed where you can defend against an opponent's EX Burst by tapping O to balance this vertical bar. Not sure how it works exactly, but it seems timing based and can reduce the damage you take from EX Busty attacks significantly.

How ya doing, buddy?

Yeah, that was noticed by quite few people. Her updated version actually looks closer to Amano's design though, which is probably why he did that.

Ok here is a better translation of the Character fighting-styles and Ex-Bursts.

Quote:

Fighting styles and Ex-Bursts - Chaos side

andres_el_tiger was kind enough to upload the newest V-Jump scans and post them to ff_compilations. Of particular interest to me are the pages profiling each characters fighting style and Ex-Burst. So I've gone through and translated the ones for our Warriors of Chaos. The Warriors of Cosmos are forth-coming, since I decided to split this up for length.

Garland - While he moves slowly, his attacks are powerful. He overwhelms opponents by transforming his weapon!

Ex-Burst: "Soul of Chaos" - The ground quakes with an intense strike of this massive sword!

~*~

Emperor - With his signature land mines and lightning, he attacks by setting up traps. He is a character that requires a good deal of strategy.

Ex-Burst: "Absolute Rule" - With his demonic powers, he subjugates his opponent's very soul!

~*~

Cloud of Darkness - Her attacks change depending upon their timing. This can be utilized for powerful combos!

Ex-Burst: "Super Wave Canon" - The transcendent power of this canon erases all to leave only despair behind.

~*~

Golbez - His long range and short range attacks are preformed at the same time. It takes a mix of motions to fight skillfully with him.

Ex-Burst: "Twin Moons" - He and the Shadow Dragon wrapped around him fire off a massive magic attack together!

~*~

Ex-Death - He excels at guarding and counter-attacks. Powerful techniques seek out his enemies.

Ex-Burst: "The Laws of the Universe mean Nothing!" - By manipulating the dimension of complete "Void" he throws the entire universe into chaos!

~*~

Kefka - He fights using many types of powerful magic. Special commands can raise his power further!

Ex-Burst: "Warring Triad" - Memorize and repeat the sequence of button commands.

~*~

Sephiroth - An extremely strong fighter who constantly barrages his enemy with his long sword swings. He is also quite swift.

Ex-Burst: "Super Nova" - Hitting the button repeatedly during the time limit will raise its power.

~*~

Ultimecia - She specializes in long range magic attacks. She can release different types in rapid hails of magical bullets.

Ex-Burst: "Time Compression" - Like Squall's Renzokuken, its power is heightened with each pull of the trigger.

~*~

Kuja - He combines speed and magic together. As he flits about, he is constantly casting off spells!

Ex-Burst: "Last Requiem" - Kuja in the midst of Trance, fires off a sequence of powerful magic attacks!

~*~

Jecht - While strong overall, he is best as a close range fighter. His fighting power further increases when transformed!

Ex-Burst: "King of the Blitz" - The transformed Jecht readies a certain kill technique!?

lol at Clouds and Bartz's Bursts.

Quote:

Fighting styles and Ex-Bursts - Cosmos side

And now for our Warriors of Cosmos. Most of these are what we expected, but there are a few surprises....

Warrior of Light - He mainly fights with his sword but can also use his shield as a weapon. Overall, he is the balanced fighter!

Ex-Burst: "Oversoul" - He delivers a series of sword thrusts so fast they look like flickers of light!

~*~

Firion - He is far more suited to battling on the ground rather than the air. He can make full use of his weapons while fighting on the ground.

Ex-Burst: "Fervid Blazer" - He attacks with one weapon after another in sequence to battle with all of them!

~*~

Onion Knight - An exceptionally quick fighter. He avoids enemy attacks to come back with his own.

Ex-Burst: "Ninjutsu/Great Magic" - As a Ninja or a Sage, he uses different versions of the same burst!　　

~*~

Cecil - As a Dark Knight he is strong on the ground, while as a Paladin he is excellent in the air. Only by using both well can he really be put to work.

Ex-Burst: "Double Phase" - He combines the powers of light and darkness to deliver a great deal of damage.

~*~

Bartz - He has mastered all of the weapons of his fellow warriors. He can use magic as well.

Ex-Burst: Rapid Fire Dual-Wield Spell Blades - He combines the power of all of his companions into one fierce attack.

(Note: If you're not familiar with FFV, let me explain where the name comes from. Mimes in FFV can equip any skill they wish and a popular offensive strategy is to combine the Ninja's passive ability Dual-Wield to equip two swords with the Mystic Knight's Spellblades to charge both blades with a spell - usually Flare - and then the Ranger's Rapid Fire to attack four times per turn.)

~*~

Terra - She uses magic for both short and long range attacks. Managing the distance between her and her opponent is vital.

Ex-Burst: "Riot Blade" - Countless blades fly from her hands to tear her opponent to shreds.

~*~

Cloud - He specializes at slashing with one powerful blow at a time. This makes Brave Breaks easy for him.

Ex-Burst: "Omnislash" - Wave upon wave of raging blows! It's the strongest Limit Break!　　　　

(Note: If you've never seen Omnislash's crazy Japanese name, here you are - 超究武神覇斬, Choukyuubushinhazan literally, Super Ultimate War God Supreme Decapitation. Occasionally, translators can really improve things in localization...)　　　

~*~

Squall - At perfect ease with combos, he is a close combat fighter. He rushes towards his enemies to tear them apart.

Ex-Burst: "Renzokuken" - Just like FFVII, hit the R button to Trigger a more powerful attack. 　　　　

~*~

Zidane - He darts around quickly while playing with his opponents. While fighting in the air, he is capable of letting out a rush of energy waves.

Ex-Burst: "Reverse Gaia" - The enemy is overwhelmed by the ever-increasing acceleration of this series of attacks!

~*~

Tidus - With speedy attacks and fast leveling up, he's an excellent all-around character. He is quite easy to use.

Ex-Burst: "Blitz Ace" - Just like the original game, this Overdrive ends with him kicking off a Sphere Shot

Also there's a new Famitsu Scan that confirms Ad-hoc, Green-haired Terra, Cloud and Sephiroth and apparently 25 stages in total.

Shantotto seems to be more of a "Secret Character", so I don't think the whole Hero=Villian thing will apply to her, or any other Character from now. She's apparently more of a gray character anyway.

Guess it's time to speculate on who from FFXII is going to show up.

Then when I was done with her, I had to fight one of the unknown Knight things, and he kicked my ass as well. Then I got frustrated at the hyperactive camera and action and turned it off. Unfortunately I didn't save and I'm back to fighting Ultimecia.

Well, for one thing Wol's story is one of the hardest in the game. You can button mash most early Lv. enemies in the beginning of the game, but later on against high lv ones you have know more of complex parts of game i.e. using Items, Weapons, and Armor to customize your characters and gaining more attacks as you Level up. Some movies for characters can actually be brought at the PP shop, hopefully someone starts translating stuff, until then this might help:

For those having trouble learning HP Attacks:

Quote:

You put new abilities on learning, needing AP to complete, one you learn new moves, assign them for different combinations on square+analog stick.
First option in the customize menu is for abilities, once there, first option is for assigning, second for learning.

Got from GameFAQ's Dissida board.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
