The DISSIDIA 012 [duodecim] Final Fantasy Review from JRPG Tribe | JRPG Tribe
Nevada Dru takes a look at Dissidia Final Fantasy NT and why it is a classic case of less is more.
Hardcore Gamer: The fighting franchise starring the heroes and villains of Final Fantasy is back in action. Dissidia Final Fantasy NT is the third main entry in the franchise and the first to be released on a home console. Dissidia Final Fantasy and its follow-up, 012, were both released on the PSP in 2008 and 2012 respectively. It’s been a long time since the series was last seen and game design has changed drastically since then.
Given that, what’s the difference? How have the Dissidia games changed since the franchise’s inception on the PSP to the recent release on PS4. Here are the major changes between Dissidia Final Fantasy and Dissidia Final Fantasy NT.
How do the two new Dissidia games stack up to the previous ones?
Although it doesn’t have Dissidia in its title, the Theatrhythm games are part of the franchise since they are spinoffs and feature Cosmos and Chaos
So there’s more than 4 games in the Dissidia franchise
I disagree with one thing. While this is a fighting take to the series, I very much like the style of this game where the story ties into the game-play..it kinda gives it an rpg feeling and that's what SE does. They are masters of storytelling...and as a long time Final Fantasy Fan, I think it's safe to say that many others appreciate the many cut-scenes.
Lately SE at least knows how to make great PSP/DS titles like 'Lord of Arcana' ,'3rd Birthday', 'Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep' and this one.
I think that NGP should start to be next focus of these JRPG devs instead taking more time and money to make HD games for home consoles and such.
