Dissidia 2 Rumors: That Wikia Article Is Pretty Darn Stupid
The successful release of Dissidia Final Fantasy last August to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Final Fantasy prompted fans of the game to persuade Tetsuya Nomura to come up with a sequel. Who wouldn’t ask for Part 2 of the PSP exclusive? Banding together 22 characters from FF I to XII and create a three-dimensional, free-roam battlefield with innovative fighting elements surely made the anniversary a pleasant tribute to the eponymous role-playing game.
With Final Fantasy Versus XIII and Agito ready to wrap up Square Enix’ flagship title, Fabula Nova Crystallis and with Final Fantasy XIV ready for September 30, there’s a big chance that we might not be getting Dissidia 2. The staggering amount of positive reviews that Dissidia had received from users could become the pivotal drive that it deserves and, with forum threads already talking about it, the power has shifted to the fans and the pressure is on SE.
Just this week, I have found many open discussion about the possibility of Dissidia 2 hitting next-gen consoles and, with the overwhelming pages dedicated to ideas, character inclusions, gameplay modifications and others, it’s really nice to see some bloggers and forum junkies channeling their hopes towards a wish for a follow-up.
The Dissidia 2 rumors are spreading like a virus.
However, there are some posts that dumbfounds the core concept of making Dissidia 2 a very powerful sequel that could very well break its all-time records in terms of sales and fan appreciation. Here, I want to share Wikia page that has made me frown because of the writer’s debilitated creativity, decision-making and logic.
“Final Fantasy VII: Tifa Lockhart (Cosmos) and Vincent Valentine (Chaos). Yeah, screw you Zack (too similar to Cloud), Genesis (not much for moveset potential) and Weiss (why?). Again, Vincent goes to Chaos due to being a “dark” character, even though he’s heroic in all of his appearances – chalk it up to Chaos being into vampires. And Tifa, from what I know, is incredibly popular (and also fights like a Monk, a “class” Dissidia doesn’t have yet). The Compilation of FFVII has a number of other worthy characters though, so my choices could vary drastically.”
What? Who would appreciate this kind of transition, better yet, a character draft for the roster? Putting Vincent Valentine on the flaming side of Chaos? Just because he sustained a role as Chaos doesn’t mean that the ex-Turk should align himself with the Bedlam master himself. I’d go with Tifa or Zack anytime but puh-lease, this has got to be one of the worst suggestions yet.
Here’s another:
“Final Fantasy IX: Vivi is the only consistently popular character to come out of FFIX, due to his ability to be so adorable yet so bad ass at the same time. And plus, Dissidia lacks a classic Black Mage; Terra sort of fills that role, but we all know that Vivi would Doomsday her ass. I doubt FFIX will get two more characters, but if it does, I would put Vivi on the Chaos side and add in Steiner for the Cosmos side.”
Yet another stupid user-generated proposal. Remember, wikis can be edited at any time at all and I would like someone to delete and renew these misdirections. Seriously, put Vivi, the wimpy, Mist-powered pipsqueak that worries about the term ‘stopping’ on the side of Chaos; his spellcasting ability has got nothing to do with the dark side and Doomsday is not an exception.
If you want to read the full wiki post, go here. Actually, the page is solely dedicated to character selection – I could say it’s stupid to include Vincent and Vivi as part of Chaos’s team of villains but, we all have our opinions about this.

Excuse me, not to be rude or anything but for me being part of that wiki, You are wrong on several parts. First, I’ll have you know the “wikia article” you’ve read is not really an article. It is actually a Wiki Forum as stated at the top part of the page if you missed it somehow and to be specific it is a forum where users discuss things unrelated to the wiki. Second, whatever stated in the forum is not official and was all those users’ “wishes” or as you have stated suggestions and opinions which means it’s what they want/wish to happen and is somewhat a “none of your business” kind as you have your own opinions about the characters and they have their own. Lastly, your suggestion of someone editing, deleting and renewing it is a form of vandalism in the wiki. have a nice day.
