New Dissidia Arcade Game (NT)

[Sprites]

This has probably already been discussed before but one of the things I love about this version of Dissidia is the updated soundtrack.

The FFV boss battle theme is amazing!! As is the opening theme Massive Explosion I ended up downloading the entire album I was so impressed with the soundtrack.

FFI's Pandaemonium is returning, just shown today. I think this is the first one to return, so we might see the others soon. I'm sure today marks 2 years since it was revealed, so I hope a console port and western release happens soon.

Sephiroth's KH costume shown too.

 

[Elessar]

There was a stream or something but I'm too tired to check/watch, so I'm just gonna steal screenshots from Gaf and translate them...

Sephiroth's 2nd form (from Kingdom Hearts)

Sephiroth's 3rd weapon, the "Cetra Blade"

Oops. It's a trailer. Sorry.

Wait. Wtf. I don't see Sephiroth in it. There WAS a stream! No idea where I can find it though.

 

[ForceStealer]

Weird

 

[The Twilight Mexican]

Odd, but cool design.

 

[Elessar]

Found the stream. I'll skim through it and translate anything FF7 related (that I can). Standby...

EDIT: Nope. It's just those two screenshots from above. Sorry to disappoint.

Here's a video of KH Sephiroth

A new character is going to be revealed on the 7th. The tweet was badly translated, so I'm not sure if it's the 8th character revealed or they are going to reveal 8 characters. Likely the 8th one.

[The Twilight Mexican]

Neither. It says Official Live Broadcast #8 will include a character reveal.

 

[ultima espio]

Close enough

 

[Tashasaurous]

It could be either revealling a character from Final Fantasy 8(Ultimecia has yet to appear), the 8th of this month instead of the 7th, or around 8:00AM/PM during the day.

Considering how they translate from Japanese to French, then to French to Japanese, then back again, and the finally French to English, I'm not surprised that the translation here is bad at the moment.

 

[The Twilight Mexican]

Tash, I already looked at it and mentioned what it says two posts above yours.

And they don't do that Japanese-to-French thing with everything. That just happened on the recent occasion that French journalists were interviewing Nomura in France. It's the same thing that happens in English-speaking countries when English-speaking journalists interview Nomura -- their questions will be translated by an interpreter from English to Japanese, then the responses will be translated from Japanese to English.

Going along with the FFII stage, today The Emperor was revealed.

 

[Shademp]

today The Emperor David Bowie was revealed.

fixed

We've got a new remix of "Something to Protect" from IX (Theme used when Steiner and Beatrix fight those monsters in Alexandria)

 

[Shademp]

I was quite digging this remix...then 0:57 and onwards happened. XP I could do without that vocal bit.

 

[ChipNoir]

Yuck. Too chaotic.

 

[Strangelove]

ngl i still liked it

 

[ultima espio]

There's one for Fighting Fate (Barthandelus battle theme)

Unrecognisable unless someone told you what it was.

 

[Shademp]

Bahamut summon

The screen looks quite overcrowded with menus and numbers.

 

[ForceStealer]

It does, but I love the way that summon appears to work

 

[ultima espio]

New BGM from Tactics:

 

[ForceStealer]

Ohhhh. I wasn't sure at first, but by 2 minutes in I liked it a lot. Though Antipyretic is still the best of the rearrangements so far.

Also Tactics looooooooove

 

[ChipNoir]

So, next month is a new character. Any guesses?

My money is on Ultimecia.

 

[Tashasaurous]

Ultimecia, Noctis or the Cloud of Darkness are the three best guesses in my opinion.
