The Green thing was to Djinn's comment about he claimed you could take her in game art as blonde if you wanted, I was saying that no, you really can't; its very obviously green and not borderline yellow at all (heck, I'd wager its closer to blue than yellow, but that's neither here nor there; its very much green.)

The CGI thing was an independent statement <_<

*agrees with Meeple* Huh, it's greener than I remembered, must've been the color on my TV from back in the day.

Or maybe I'm colorblind?

http://www.gamekyo.com/news29009_onion-knight-wearing-lunes-costume-in-dissidia-final-fantasy.html

Just much of the same stuff.  Things we learn from this however?

FF4's battlefield is the Lunar Surface.  I was suspecting the lower end of the Lunar Subterranean, but the Lunar Surface works too, so long as it wasn't the Lunar Path/Upper Part of Lunar Subterranean.  WE DO NOT NEED RANDOM BORING CAVE DESIGNS!  So yeah, guessed wrong, but satisfied enough.

Dark Knight Cecil ALSO uses a weird spear.  This also confirms that Cecil changes battle midfight, since we finally have a gameplay shot of him in his Paladin form (worth noting that portraits don't change in EX Forms as seen by Onion Knight, so obviously something else is at play!  Not that "Swap at will" wasn't implying anything else.)

Cecil or Golbez's EX Burst seems to run off a Button Combo system...well, at least we narrowed down which characters would inevitably get the Blitz/Duel/Bushido style <_<

LUNETH IS IN DISSIDA!!! ...kind of.  More like Onion Knight's alternate costume was based around Luneth in mind.  It has white hair and a blue outfit (...though could have sworn Luneth worse Purple in his Onion Knight form), so yeah, guess this means Remakes do count to some degree <_<;

Cecil's EX Burst seems to be this move called "Holy Blade" that was in FF4 The After, which they also show him using in FF4DS' opening FMV against Golbez.  Something like he jumps aireborne, spins with his sword while flashing or something...yeah, more proof Remakes are not totally ignored.  Nothing is mentioned as far as his EX Mode...or Golbez's, at least as far as I can tell.

Nothing else is all that interesting beyond that.  Well, at least we can distintively tell that Cecil's holding a SPEAR and not a staff.  Perhaps people will stop whining about "WAAAH NO DRAGOON BARTZ BETTER BE ONE!" since any character with a lance would fullfill the dragoon quota, given the Advent Children style jumping theatrics every character seems capable of (ie everyone can pretend to be a dragoon!)

Worth noting that it says in that that Golbez is still voiced by Chairman Kaga of Iron Chef fame.

Or how Cecile is still voiced by Straybow.

And I have this feeling Golbez's ex form would be summoning his pet dragon....
Golbez's play styl eis soemwhat interesting, he'll lunch two attacks in one button. One long ranged and one short ranged. And depends on at which range the enemy got hit, his following combo loop would change.

Most people figured Golbez was going to get Shadow Dragon summon as his EX mode, mostly cause...uhh...what else does he have?  Guess they could have been creative, but whatever.

Though, that does sound neat; so Golbez has a combo that varies based on how the enemy gets hit with an attack? Neat.

Think you can translate the Onion Knight alternate costume thing, Niu?  Someone else translated it but I don't give him much credibility since he has been proven to...make various assumptions about things that proved to be not quite what was said.

It seems that not just Onion kid, other characters would have alternate costumes. And they are just costumes, nothing more.

*nods* I gathered that, and that Onion Knight's happened to be made with Luneth in mind.  The guy who translated it had a whole side comment of how "Another Costume" in Japanese is often indicative of something else like...well, let me get what he said exactly:


Quote
Note that, in Japan, the term "another costume" is often used in fighting games to describe an alternate version of a character, usually in a civilian state, angry state, alternate universe state, schizo state, or origin state.


Again, given the guy who said this, I'm not sure how accurate it is, especially since he's adamant about the whole ONION KNIGHT IS LUNETH a while back and is shoving it in people's faces (even though its...just an alt costume...)

You mean any true runes? Can't imagine a Suikoden game with a complete lack of runes, especially since we know they get MP.

I mean runes in general. They cast magic in this game with something called "star sign".

So the main talks and doesn't look like a total fruitcake?  Better than S1/S2/S4/S5 already.

Whee, looks like Unite Attacks are making a triumphant return! Moana (Morna?) looks like a strategist to me. And Kurodekirudo (Crodekild?) looks like she's from Falena.
I looked through the Japanese, but I couldn't tell if it mentioned a time period for the game yet. My guess would be around Suikoden 5's time period.

The Kobolds in this game actually look badass. Nice. (They are Kobolds, right?)

Also, looks like they're making another nameless main... they're currently calling him 'Gensou'? *rolls eyes*

Apart from the main, I'm actually enjoying the character designs thus far. And he's not the worst main character design I've seen either (thinks of Reid Herschel).

Note, they are the SAME person. On top of that, the VA is Hirakwa for the love of god. Serious, what crack was Terada on this time?

More Dissidia stuff!

The entire Dissidia cast revealed (barring potential advent of secret characters)!  Pity Terra has blonde hair though, but I should just be happy she's there altogether.  All those arguments paid off!

Edit: Changed site cause the original one got a C&D.
