Although I have to admit I didn't consider Yuna being pulled from X-2. That would make a lot more sense, but I guess I was stuck on Seymore not being in there and just assumed they'd find a way for her to be a practical choice as a summoner. Quote:

Basically, half the party is out because they'd just break down and mope (Snow, Hope, Vanille), while the others (Sazh, Light, Fang) are strong enough to handle themselves, and Light is already in. Quote:
Granted, this all hinges on him being played like in FF6 instead of KH, but I still hold onto the hope that the sim-Setzer was non-canon. Quote:
It's not like you could even reasonably get much out of things that way because of how few classes there are that are applied to practically everyone in the series, even if not in name. Once you start counting all of, say, the Monks (Yang, Sabin, Tifa, Zell, Amarant, Snow at a stretch), you start realizing how much overlap there is. Choosing a roster is going to be a balance between who's popular and who has something to offer to gameplay. Tifa and Zell are not liable to end up in the same game, and even less so for Zell and Sabin. Damn, I'm behind!

FFVI: Terra, Kefka, Locke (or Edgar, or reflecting on Nomura's involvement, probably Shadow) FFVII: Cloud, Sephiroth, Vincent (would be 100% confident with those three, despite the fact that Vincent doesn't deserve it) FFVIII: Squall, Seifer, and someone random (I'd wager either Rinoa or Laguna, assuming Rinoa might actually be substantially more popular in Japan than she is here.) FFIX: Zidane, Vivi, Kuja FFX: Tidus, Jecht, Rikku (I'd prefer Auron, but I think Rikku's the more likely choice for a Japanese audience.) FFXII: Balthier, Gabranth, Fran (not because Fran is legitimately worthwhile, moreso because Fran's half-bunny and unique compared to Ashe or Penelo.) Only problem is all my choices add up to two heroes and one villain, but it's not my fault Square Enix has created more memorable protagonists than antagonists. |

I'd say Auron is more likely than Rikku, as Auron was in KH2. Don't think Fran would make it in, though she would be an interesting playstyle.

Though apparently Locke was, as well, but they'd really have to design him from the ground up since his abilities in FF6 didn't really leave a lot to work with, and anything he could conceivably do, Zidane can probably do better. Quote:
Ultimecia's already grandfathered in from the first game, bro.

FFVI: Terra, Kefka, Celes - Celes is on both sides during the game and might switch over in Dissidia. FFVII: Cloud, Sephiroth, Vincent - no argument here, as there is no swing character (minus Cait Sith, but AHAHAHAHA!). FFVIII: Squall, Ultimecia, Rinoa/Seifer - Ultimecia was in last time, Rinoa was possessed by her and may be a source of conflict for Squall if she is in here. Seifer has no loyalty to Ultimecia and is Squall's rival, but not above joining him. FFIX: Zidane, Vivi, Kuja - this one makes sense, but I have concerns over Vivi's abilities. FF9's swing would be Amarant, but I doubt they'd choose him over Vivi. Vivi and Zidane have a strong dynamic anyway. FFX: Tidus, Jecht, ??? - this assumes Jecht isn't replaced, but if they add Yuna, they might switch him for Seymore. Jecht would be the obvious swing, but he's got nobody to oppose and I don't know if just fighting alongside his son for the sake of it would work well. Yuna has a beef with Seymore, though, and Tidus would join her against him in a heartbeat. FFXII: Vaan, Gabranth, Vayne - we all know their hands are going to be tied to use Vaan. They were tied in the game itself. Gabranth would act as a swing and switch sides given the right reasons/motivation/push and Vayne is the main antagonist, so he'd be in. If we're being optimistic, replace Vaan with Ashe or Basch, since they have actual reasons to fight Vayne and Basch has the bonus of maybe turning his brother.

Actually, by your logic there Cloud, Sephiroth and Tifa might make more sense with Cloud as the "swing character." (Possessed and/or manipulated by Sephiroth.)

First off...I never played Dissidia BUT I am a long time FF fan since FF6 (played it as 3 on the SNES) and I own Revenant Wings.
If I was going to do the list, this is how I would do it...I am only listing the games I'VE personally played...matched as well as possible by hero-villian counterparts. FFIV> Cecil, Kain, Golbez, Zeromus FFVI> Terra (SHE'S HOT!!!), Celes, Kefka, Geshtal, Edgar, Cyan FFX> Tidus, Jecht, Yuna (FFX-2 Gunmage-See Below), Seymour, Auron, Lady Yunalesca FFX2> Paine, Barralai, Rikku, Gippal, Yuna(again), Leblanc FF12> Basch, Gabranth, Balthier, Cid, Ba'Gamnan, Fran Reason for FF6 getting only two villians to four heroes is that I happen to like Edgar and Cyan. *** That and that one was a tad short on villians. Reason for Yuna getting two is that she is covered in two games with a villian counterpart in each one so I went with a Main Plot villian and than one that wasn't so important to the plot (in this case...Leblanc. Hated her to hell!) Oh and yes...I do think Terra Branford is the sexiest Final Fantasy Dame ever created! She is sexy! Her Morph Form is Sexy! And give her Atmaweapon, Man-Eater, and the Genji Glove than Morph her and you got a one woman killing machine!

I would love to see the Blackbelt and one of the Fiends (FIRE) from one, Leon or Minwu and the other Emperor you fight in the side story for Dawn of Souls from two, have Luneth not just be a costume from three, Kain is fine from four although I would rather see Yang or Cid, Faris definitely from five, Celes or Locke from six, Tifa, Red XII, and Rufus from seven, Quitsis from eight, Steiner from nine, Auron and Seymour from ten, and Balthier from 12.
I would love to see Ramza from FFT thrown in there somewhere as well.
