Dissidia Duodecim Final Fantasy continues Squeenix's tradition of stupid titles

[Regulus Tera]

Those are The After Years Golbez (ultra-manly, but the implications are horrendous) and Amano-design Cloud. Cecil and Kain are supposed to be Amano's too.

Addressed in Chrono Trigger DS. You may cry now.

And is that Young Cloud?

Amano Cloud. There's some question as to what all the default outfits are going to be. Amano Cloud was featured as the default in the demo, but interviews seem to conflict with that being the plan, so it's possible they just did it for the demo to show them off.

I know. But you know... did they have to make Golbez look so.... old? Guy had brown hair in TAY... but that's almost Old Snake-grey.

His hair jumped between brown and shockingly white depending on which sprites you were looking at. But then this is the same game that gave TheodoreCeodore is a stupid name sky blue hair when his artwork makes it clear that he takes after his dad, so...

Anywho, I'm more surprised that the Lunarian Hobo is making an appearance. Isn't that supposed to be him after seventeen long years of sleeping in a pod? And isn't this supposed to be a prequel? Do Squeenix heroes age backwards or something in the Dissidiaverse?

The alternate costumes are not their canonical appearance in these games.

Granted, I wish that the vast majority of people playing as green-haired Terra made it canon but life just doesn't work that way.

They at least made the Tint a little more visible then the last game.

Actually, on the Ceodore thing, that's just executive meddling. Canon is that he was supposed to be named after Golbez's real name, Theodore, and the Japanese is the exact same. It's just when they localized it they transliterated it differently to purposefully distinguish the two characters, probably taking advantage of the fact that his father's name is Cecil so they could be clever and pretend they were combining the two names to keep the intention, but link him back to his father.

It's not exactly the worst solution, all told, and there have been more egregious instances (Cayenne -> Cyan, Tina -> Terra (although that was based on direct tester feedback), Kururu -> both Krile and Cara, etc.).

And one obvious character has joined.
