What should I play next? Let me know!

Fun Dissidia fact! Apparently the entire series owes its existence to the Advent Children movie, as the game's creators wanted a game that looked and felt like the Cloud vs Sephiroth fight scene (which is also why the launch and aerial back-and-forth attacking mechanic exists)

I spent so many hours on the original and 012. They're so insanely fun I wish they got rereleased or remastered at some point.

I highly agree the Dissidia PSP is way ahead of its time. If they just remastered this game or not even improve anything. It still going to be an amazing game on consoles

I spent over 600 hours in the original and 012 combined. I can truly say with confidence that Dissidia is my favorite game of all time and I still play it from time to time on my vita

Dissidia made me the FF fan i am today. Before, all my knowledge was just on FF7, and i havent even played that game at the time. When i got the first dissidia on the PSP, i was enamoured by all the characters i have never seen or heard of before. It got me to actually start playing final fantasy. My love for dissidia still continues to this day as i am 3 years going strong playing DFFOO.

I really REALLY hope we can get a new Dissidia that's pretty much just Duodecim, but with more characters and modern graphics.

When I was 10 and started playing dissidia 012 the story terrified me greatly. The feeling of emptiness of the overworld, the dissaturated colours and music, things that are there but there's nothing at the same time, it's like there's still a mystery we don't know about and we never will. I remember as you progress through story when you go to the first menu you hear sounds from different characters pleeding for help and it will never come up again. That was realy scary. No fighting game comes even close to what this game achieved. I'm still playing it every week.

Duodecim was god tier, but then NT tried to force me to play online and do boring monotonous offline single matches by hiding the story mode behind that points system. Felt way more clunky too. Which is why I’m buying a ps vita again, just for Duodecim 👌🏻

Dissidia is an awesome series that many people can't get into because the best one in on the the psp, i wish they would somehow port it to newer consoles. Hopefully you can bring more attention to these games. Anyways, awesome video!

Fun fact: These games are canon with both FF1 and Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin. The third DLC of the latter game even has manakins as an enemy type.

I remember the og dissidia. I specifically remember finding parts to make a "Counter One Shot" build, where when you countered, your next attack would have a 100% crit chance, and then I'd add other things to increase their bravery attacks damage, and crit damage. I'd pick cloud, wait for an attack, Counter it, get a gauranteed multi-hit thrust attack, deplete their entire bravery (No matter the size, this would remove the bravery off of any number because the damage it dealt was unbelievable thanks to the multi-hit.) and then combo a guaranteed hp attack afterwards, or if they escaped spam one of cloud's ranged hp attacks. I did this throughout the hardest parts of the solo missions, and it helped a lot with clearing the end-game content quickly.

I remember being so salty about the Chaos troll that a few years later on an emulator with save state scumming i did actually beat it It is beatable, it's just every HP move he does is a one-shot and you can never bravery break him, the best strategy is to just learn how to counter his moves with dodging and positioning, and spam HP attacks. If anyone's interested in what you get for beating him- well: Nothing. You get nothing. It goes "oh crap i guess you really are this good haha" and then it just moves on

I was legitimately upset when I saw that the best skins in Dissidia NT were locked by a FOURTEEN DOLLAR PAY WALL on a game I payed FULL PRICE for at launch. Kinda sad how the game flopped.

Since you mentioned you love yourself some Kingdom Hearts, a "I played every Kingdom Hearts game" is a must do now. Although I'd suggest saving it for a milestone of Subscribers or a special video for an anniversary maybe? Since there's so many Kingdom Hearts and it would take a lot of time for that video to be made. But anyways, keep up the good work! You put out amazing content, dude!

I'm going to keep saying this until I'm blue in the face and then some. The PSP games, particularly 012, are MASTERPIECES. I would comfortably place them in a list of the greatest games of all time. The concept is genius, the gameplay is unique and fun, and even if you're not a Final Fantasy fan you can learn some about and grow to love the characters. The visuals, the RPG elements... music... and don't forget that slow-mo and "The final blow!" at the end of a match. I always found that particular aspect so captivating and to this day it never gets old. For any Dissidia fans or FF fans here I absolutely recommend DFFOO. It can be slightly overwhelming at first but the community is super helpful and once you get into the groove you'll find it to be a very, very rewarding and generous game.

It should be mentioned in Opera Omnia that, while there IS a grind, the devs do like to help make it less stressful with various mechanics: Characters having x2 EXP gain during events No stamina system outside of WOI (and the potions that refill that stamina are plentiful) Very frequent x2 Crystal events Chocobo Feathers to speed up leveling Auto system which, if combined with a powerful AOE unit like Yuna, makes grinding not only much faster but also semi-AFKable, so you can grind easily while doing something else Frequent Ultimate Summons support events (the biggest grind so definitely one needs it) As far as equipment goes, every new character at this point gets a free 15cp weapon, and 35cps have good pull rates and can be bought using Power Tokens. EX and LD weapons are what you'll mainly be pulling for - EX weapons can be bought for EX tokens via the Daily Hunts, LD weapons are a bit more unforgiving. The pity system is far more generous than most Gacha games in my experience, so if there's a favourite character you REALLY wanna pull for, you can save your gems and guarantee you'll get them. You also only need 1 copy of each weapon type - while you do need to Limit Break each weapon to unlock the passive ability, you can do this with either dupe copies OR Power Stones, which can be obtained through a variety of ways, including selling 5-star weapons - meaning that pulling weapons you've already maxed actually gives you something, and aren't just trash. If you don't mind not being able to take on the highest level content right off the bat, getting a few EX weapons and upgrading them to EX+ (the materials for which are earned, not pulled for), you can comfortably do up to Cosmos difficulty and perhaps even take on some of the Chaos battles. If you're only in it for the story, you don't need to worry about your pulls at all. One final thing to note is there's NO PVP aspect, which might be a turn-off for some but it also means your rewards aren't limited if you don't have the best gear. Everyone is in it together in Opera Omnia, so it doesn't just cater to the top tier of players or the players with the deepest pockets.

Dissidia NT was such a disappointment. It's a shame that there likely won't just be an HD remake of Dissidia 012, since that but with the new FF entry characters would have been perfect. I would have loved to fight the FF1 WoL as Zenos in a remake of Dissidia 012. Instead it feels like the bulk of the development went into the graphics and they chose to strip down the game for parts and sell them separate. There is *$863.64* of DLC for the game on steam currently.

Can we just talk about how clean that ex core collect was at 5:00 like DAMN

012 is arguably a masterpiece, fun and repayable gameplay, an actually good story for every character considering that it's just supposed to be a crossover between Final Fantasy games. The remixes are a mixed bag, some are the best things ever, others suck, you can get the original music as well, even without DLC most of the alt costumes you would want are also available here. There's tons of extra modes for combat, my favourites are the tournament and labyrinth mode, you can create your own stories and battles for them, it's just great. I could go on forever, 012 is just brimming with content, everyone should play it.

I don't think any other game has the amount of fan service packed into it as Dissidia does. I poured hundreds of hours into the original dissidia and i don't regret one minute of it.

A little footnote to your DFFOO review: Crystal farming is really only a barrier at the very start. Once you start getting better, you'll end up with more crystals than you need, and the game switches to difficult, but rewarding boss battles. Great video nonetheless !

What I love about Opera Omnia is that it gives obscure or not so popular characters a time to shine, such as Kurasame and Jack from Type-0, Sherlotta from FFCC, Cid Raines from FF13, Aphmau and Iroha from FF11 just to name a few. Overall it's my favorite mobile game.

It's so cool to me that you mentioned you've been playing Dissidia for years and when I check your past videos I see a Dissidia video from 9 years ago. Also it's such a coincidence that my friend just told me about Dissidia so I wanted to find a youtube video about it and you made this full coverage/series history video recently.

Great video, very nostalgic too!! I remember putting sooo many hours into the Duel Colosseum because it was so addicting just so I could finally buy all of the costumes for each character. I've kept my PSP after all these years because it still want to try out Duodecim someday, but after watching this video I might actually consider tracking down a copy of it!

Ahhhhh man i have such fond memories of playing Dissidia and then Duodecim on launch. I 100%'d Dissidia but never could beat that crazy max-power Feral Chaos in Duodecim. Kinda sad i lost my PSP. lol I didn't end up picking up NT but always thought it looked incredible and I have to agree with you about wanting to see a true sequel because honestly, Dissidia Duodecim is one of my favorite games of all time. It was SO much fun. The Labyrinth mode is the ENTIRE reason i started getting into roguelikes and still love that kind of game to this day honestly. Thanks for shedding some light on these games! This was great! Definitely gonna check out more of your content. You definitely earned yourself a new sub. :)

Dissidia was one of my favorite games. Duodecim was great in the fact they brought in my fave FF character, but they nerfed Ex Mode almost out of existance, which killed Gabranth's playability, which was my main in the first game. They could've easily made a better and balanced Dissidia game, but instead we got NT. NT was built bad to begin with, and Square used that to cancel any further Dissidia games. Square completely ignored fan input for what we did like about Dissidia, and what we wanted to add in order to make it better. It breaks my heart that this series not only died, but went out on a whimper.

Great video! so I just started playing Dissida (on PSP) this year haha - loving it, and I'm so glad to see people are even still making content.

Man I remember discovering Dissidia the first time on my PSP. I've always played every single Final Fantasy game up to this point and still to this day. I spent entire nights playing this game and took it to High School where I kept playing during the breaks. My very first character I've gotten to level 100 was Cloud which I dropped right after for Ontion Knight who is still my main character now! Absolute love these games and how unique they feel. Awesome video

11:12 actually the maxxed feral chaos fight is winnable, albeit tedious as heck to pull off............ only drawback tho is even if you do go thru the hassle of beating them, you get nothing to show for it whatsoever

I really love 012, I honestly go back to play through the story every now and then

I just found this channel today and I've already watched through 4 videos. Good content!

Dude the time and patience you must have to do this is crazy, seriously well done with the channel so far

I've been hooked on the app since launch, gave me the Dissidia fix I've been craving since. It's extremely generous and once you're done with the grinding parts you never really have to worry much about it ever again until a new feature gets added. Also love how every character in every series gets to interact for the story.

This is awesome! Thank you for taking us through Dissidia. Just started playing the free version of NT but I desperately want to try the PSP versions

Randomly came across this video and now you’ve stoked the fire of playing Dissidia again. My only interaction with this side of FF was with the PSP. I’ll have to buy that then and additional ones. Your synopsis of the first Dissidia game was spot on.

Great video! Just discovered your channel but I feel like I'm gonna stay here for a while. :)

If anyone is curious about Dissdia Opera Omnia, trust me when I say, it's worth playing.

Anyone who's had experiences with gacha games and played DFFOO absolutely agrees with how friendly it is. Definitely worth checking out, even if its just for the story (It's SO wholesome)

The Final Fantasy VII demo on the Pizza Hut disc was my first taste of FF franchise, FFIX was my first full game. I never knew these Dissida games existed. I'm going to look more into them, thanks for the upload! Great job!

Hearing the OST again was so nice, these games on the PSP are just so great, I like to remember my time fondly playing these.

Im so excited for NT when it was announced. then i found out that its 3v3 and some mechanics from the previous two games are not present.. its a ssd day

I have played and finished it twice, on both Original and 012 Duodecim. This is by far one of the greatest game I've ever played. It's true that Dissidia gameplay is early on that time.

Man, seeing this brings back fond memories. I've probably replayed 012: Duodecim like 15 times

I´m glad I got to discover this channel, awesome content, keep it up!

I still play duodecim on my vita to this day. It's a fun classic and I play opera omnia religiously (f2p) and it's super addictive

I put so many hours into Dissidia and 012 on the PSP… so much fun. Also, the Dissidia mix of Force Your Way from FF8 is probably my favorite boss tune from the whole series.

NT was the only one I hadn't tried, I'm glad to hear about it, I loved the Dissidia series so much and I'm glad you're shining a light on it after all these years, both PSP games are heavily underrated gems and truly deserve some kind of remaster.

Well done. A very detailed quick review. Keep up the good work. 1+ subscriber unlocked.

you barely scrapped the surface of Dissidia Opera Omnia, the very beginning is the grindest part (specially the Summon Boards) but after that to fully leveling up any new character takes around 2 hours (90% of that time is getting Summon Board Points because it is the only part of the game with play limit). plus the amount of character go beyond main games and main cast, in the japanese version got Yuna's father Braska as playable character.

if NT still had the simple "dash towards opponet" command it would be 10 times better

Next level content creator. Amazing growth that fast. Congrats bro.

Thank you so much for this video 📹. I still love dissidia to this day

The story in the 1st and 2nd Dissidia was an expansion and a way to contnue FF1, theyre not all self contained.

I know this isn't a very relevant franchise nowadays, but you should play the Sly Cooper games. I mean everyone should... But I think it would fit into your style of videos, they're super fun and there aren't a lot of games in the franchise!

I’m liking your content so fucking much! I recently just watched your soul Caliber video, and all your others one! Like the Jump anniversary games! Keep up the great work! Looking forward for the future content ma dude!

Really awesome videos dude. Just found you and it’s really great.

Man, I really love Dissidia. Even NT, this video inspired me to turn on NT and try to find a match, but it doesn't seem like anybody is playing :(

The first dissidia is something that will never happen again , lucky are those who lived to see it but we outta move on . A game like that is never going to happen again

Thank you so much! I'm very passionate about Dissidia and I really want to bring this wonderful community back☺️

Aww man this video awoke a deep rooted childhood memory I never knew I had! I forgot these games existed, I used to mindlessly play them when I was barely old enough to comprehend them, like 6 or 7.

What a bummer that NT died before Zack come out. I really wanted to see Zack and Cloud reunion so bad and Dissidia series is the only one who can done it but they failed to deliver it in DFFOO. They're not even making a scene where Aerith surprise to see Zack again 😭😭😭

A remake of Dissidia 012 would be a blast! NT offered amazing graphics but just cannot match the customization and gameplay that Dissidia 012 had. Dissidia 012 is the only game so far that had me play for over 450 hours and only ever stopped when my PSP broke.

Love the format and videos. Definitely gonna be a very big channel one day. Keep it up man 👍

Back in the distant year of 2018, I used to be such a huge Final Fantasy fan (nowadays I’m more of a MegaTen guy), and Dissidia NT was my introduction to the series. I remember when Cloud and Sephiroth were the only FF characters I knew, and all the wonder and intrigue these new and unfamiliar characters invoked in me. Coupled with Massive Explosion, one of the greatest songs in video game history, and what I had was an unforgettable experience I wish I could relive all over again. I pray for a new Dissidia game sometime in the (preferably) near future.

Honestly, I can understand why NT is such a huge departure. Different structure of game, especially something like an arcade game where you fight against others, requires retooling things. The problem is the Single Player modes get way too annoying with enemy Just Guards and Online just sucks because of laaaag...

Great content you blowing up

That was a walk down memory lane. Thanks

What’s crazy is NT isn’t that bad of a game it’s just a HUGE downgrade compared to Duodecim. If NT was the first Dissidia produced then it would’ve been better recognition.

When they announced that NT was coming out was I super ecstatic because me and my friends loved the psp ports, we played them for months. Once NT came out I bought it right away and took the day off for it, something I never do for a game. Once I played it I was amazed with the visual aspect. Once I started playing, I was extremely disappointed with the lack of customization and hated the multiplayer. And because of my hate for multiplayer I avoided it, but needed it for the story mode. The game was a fail in my opinion.

Hay man your killing it keep it up

Got in before you hit 10k 🤘

DFFOO is one of the most f2p friendly gacha games I’ve ever played! If you are a fan of FF it is a fun game to play. Sure the grind may take a long time because it’s been around for a few years, but once you’re caught up it only takes 2-5 minutes a day to get resources.

NT coulda been the best in the series but ofcourse it was old dissidia spit up and chewed out. Just another modern gaming letdown and one of the bigger ones at that. Series has some amazing potential and the fun factor is top tier.

One of things I looooove about Dissidia is the theme song variations like Force Your Way of FF8 and Battle In The Big Bridge it's just....*chef's kiss*

your vids are great man im binging all of them

Eyo the man played DFFOO, it's true that it can be quite grindy but at least it barely has any stamina system unlike other gacha games. Only one part of the content requires stamina but the game gives away stamina potions like candy, so at least if you want to play the game or farm in it, you can just get in and play. The gacha itself is pretty good; gacha rates are decently high and there is a pity system for the stuff you want to pull. Some players in the game have decently sized rosters of characters built up and still have Hundreds of thousands of gems in their disposal, some even millions. The devs are quite generous when it comes to gems you need to pull on the gacha, as well as gacha tickets which are a replacement for gems if you wish to pull.Much like stamina, tickets are given away like candy XD. So for anyone else that's an FF fan and might read this, give the game a try, it's definitely worth it.

I have more than 500 hours in the first 2 dissidias, so yeah, they are worth it. Not just because the gameplay, but the characters and the story. Some of them (like Kefka) are fucking awesome in 3D, this guy steals the attencion of the player in every scene it appears

Thanks you made me actually want to try this.

WOW this video is amazing. I played 012 Duodecim in 2020, I really love this game. Can you share with us how you get the extra costumes like the Kigndom Hearts, Yuna's, Vaan's and so on?

NT made me never want another Dissidia game, it was such a massive letdown, given how amazing Duodecim was

Rip dissidia opera omnia

ok like IM HUGGGEEE FAN of Final fantasy universe, but to be precise FFX is my fav. But now when u mentioned KH I was even more hyped up so Im actually so interested in your channel. It is so nice seeing that ff games are still popular, u my bro got my respect- Imma subscribe!

I love that this opens up with torn from the heavens

the most important thing in DFFOO is managing resources. not splurging on every banner is the name of the game. it will help you save resources for banners that are really worth pulling for end game content. thankfully the dffoojp is ahead by almost 1 year of content, so you can plan your pulls better.. once you get past all the snooze grind the game turns kinda boring honeslty, you only have to play it 1-2 times a week for the new content but compared to other gacha games i think it provides more than enough.

love the video, but also you forgot to mention the command option in the psp games. In a sense it emulates the turn based system while keepin it action-y

I'm sure this would be agonizing to put together, but a video on every main series pokemon game would be awesome.

Nice Videos @Niosai Keep up the good work! Also about that Duodecim Tutorial "Unwinnable" huh? *wink* Didnt stop me from trying so long until I won it once,wasted 3 days on it I think, man those were the days, had no obligations back then haha. It doesnt give you anything tho, which is kinda disappointing.

Thanks for this video.

Hi there, I found your channel last night in my recommendeds after watching a Night Sky Prince video and I immediately subscribed to you 👍. I figured I would check out your other videos by starting from the earliest ones when I realized that even though this channel is 12 years old you didn't start posting these quality videos until less than 3 months ago (September, 6). So either you made all these videos ahead of time and are posting them periodically or your content output is amazing given the level of quality of your videos. You even put proper timestamps in your video's description which most KZfaqrs (besides avalanche reviews) don't even bother doing. I assume you have experience in editing and speaking publicly, if you don't then you where just born to be a KZfaqr 😂. Also your channel growth is insane so can't wait to feel a sense of superiority when I'm able to tell people that I'm an OG fan a few more months 🤣👍.

I'm just now playing the FF dissidia the 1st one n 012 it's pretty cool tryna get the hang of the characters and the system has deep depth its 🔥 woo-hoo 2022 psp geez oh yea gr8 vid !!!

I remember when people would literally mod the characters to have more outfits or just be totally different characters. One mod changes Feral Chaos into Bahamut from FF8

Original dissidia and 012 hold a special place in my heart. I remember being obsessed with the daily kupo mails and I'd even plan ahead for sundays when you'd get double everything.

If you guys haven’t seen the arcade cabinet for Dissidia NT before you should definitely look it it. I was so thrown off by it when I first used it in a Sega arcade lol. It feature 2 flights sticks with PS4 buttons and a big crystal in the middle you use for summons. It honestly felt kinda nice as a controller oddly enough.

Keep up the great work man! Went and binged your videos and you’ve got a great channel concept here. Def earned a sub from me, look forward to all your future content! P.S. Don’t be afraid to branch out to different types of videos once you gain a stable following.

im a dffoo veteran and i can say after you do all the summon boards and maxed your first unit etc the grind becomes alot easier

good video!

Hey man love the content, but I was wondering if you can try Final Fantasy’s older brother franchise Dragon Quest. “I played (Almost) Every Dragon Quest game” would be hype for me because I want other people to play the series. Keep up the good work dude :)

You did all the dissidia games, maybe a good milestone video would be all the main line FF games, or all the mobile FF games. Just one video and I'm a fan, man, keep it up. 😄

This video was hard to miss
