An innovative over the top fighting/action/platformer game the likes of which has never been done before. It can take a while to figure out though and sadly the game is dunked in a pool of egregious shovelwarey RPG systems such as chocobo play plans (???) and a thing where you choose which day of the week will give you more exp (???) but it doesn't really matter. The gameplay feels rigorously tested and manages to stay compelling even after the hundreds of battles required by the story. Highlights include being able to equip new attacks on your favorite character (choose button mapping, even) and a brilliant postgame with AI that will push both you and the gameplay to its limits.

Dissidia is one crazy innovative fighter / RPG hybrid game. A celebration of all things FF. There is just so much content and things to do in this game it's unreal. The roster being every main hero and villian from FF1 - FFX with one from FF11 and FF12. This game is great in single player and in multiplayer. All the characters can be fully customized with what attacks and moves to use. You can use pre determined stats or skills or you can individually level up and gear up with your characters from the campaign. The game has like 30 remastered music tracks new and old. Every character has their own campaign with cutscenes and voiced dialog with an overarching story and sequel campaign after. The game is a blast and I easily put 100 some hours into it.

If you're a fan of Final Fantasy I find it hard to believe you would dislike this game.

This is fan-service done right. Amazing visuals, super polished and fun combat, addicting multiplayer, great music and a very entertaining story.

The only reason I don't give this a 5/5 is simply because 012 took this concept and just improved upon it in every way and added even more characters to an already fantastic cast.

No inicio é legal mas haja paciência lá perto do final, o CPU vira player 2 pro (sei lá foi noobada minha hehehe), tive que penar com Cloud e mais uns personagens com LVL apelão.

80% concluído, confesso que é um porre evoluir os chars, DP é ruim de ficar alto até por causa dos desafios.

OBS: assim que fechar o jogo, pode transferir os dados do save com Duoncemi 012, caso feche ele continua com lvls e habilidades onde parou.

At the beginning it's cool but be patient towards the end, the CPU becomes player 2 pro (I don't know it was noobada my hehehe), I had to struggle with Cloud and a few more characters with LVL appeal.

80% completed, I confess that it is a pain to evolve the characters, DP is bad to get high even because of the challenges.

NOTE: as soon as you close the game, you can transfer the save data with Duoncemi 012, if you close it, it continues with lvls and skills where it left off.

As someone who has played every main series Final Fantasy game minus the MMOs, I was really looking forward to a big crossover FF fighter. Unfortunately the mechanics here are just dull. It's been a while since I've played this but iirc you only get like 6 moves divided into 3 for when you're on the ground and 3 for when you're in the air. There's not a whole lot to the movement either, you're mainly just locking onto something and dashing towards it in a straight line. The story is also not much to think of, basically being a big good vs evil fight. While the novelty of all my favorite Final Fantasy characters interacting was enough for me as a teen, I fear many of these interactions boil down to "What is the biggest most stereotypical trait of this character, let's have them do that." If you're really craving a better Final Fantasy crossover game, and you aren't totally averse to chibi anime style humor, I'd say skip this series and go on over to World of Final Fantasy, which I enjoyed much more.
