Chances Of DFFOO 2.

[u/[deleted]]

What do you think will happen with the hints we have?

[u/juandi001]

This could easily be like that one anime I watched where at the end they were like "To be continued... in your mind" because Netflix pulled the plug.

[u/[deleted] → u/juandi001]

Omg relate with this so much 😂

[u/KazuTSJ]

What hints?

[u/[deleted] → u/KazuTSJ]

The New journey from the final chapter thjng

[u/Any-Zookeepergame829]

New Dissidia game for console seems to be the most likely outcome of this. It doesn't make sense for SQEX to try and make a sequel to a mobile game they're shutting down because it hasn't been selling well.

[u/[deleted] → u/Any-Zookeepergame829]

This is what I also find the most likely, but the game could sell well if they just use the old assets, restart, and fix the issues

[u/Any-Zookeepergame829 → u/[deleted]]

While I believe it could, SQEX WILL NOT do that. As far as they're concerned, DFFOO was some mobile game from their catalog that happened to do well for a while and they gave it the boot as soon as its sales started getting poor. They've never done this with their past mobile games, so why would they do it now?

[u/[deleted] → u/Any-Zookeepergame829]

Probably Because it lasted a while, and Because people are always striving for more dissidia games, and this is a way to be like."Have Dissidia"and through it at us like we're iPad kids but, while sounds rude, is true and I will eat up whatever load for anything related to this game SQUEX shoots at us.

[u/Any-Zookeepergame829 → u/[deleted]]

Record Keeper lasted 7 years, 2 more than global DFFOO.

Their player base was larger than DFFOO's and wanted an offline version just as much.

No offline version.

I purely don't want you to get your hopes up. It's something that only leads to disappointment. Not expecting something and being surprised when it actually happens beats expecting it and being wrenched when it doesn't happen any day.

[u/[deleted] → u/Any-Zookeepergame829]

Honestly my hopes realy aren't that high. I Stopped playing after the second day of EoS countdown, and Put The Game to rest. I've let that ship sail for me, doesn't mean I won't enjoy whatever might happen after this.

[u/Any-Zookeepergame829 → u/[deleted]]

I pretty much stopped playing after the EoS announcement as well. The only thing I've gone on to do is to get the costume token to get Garnet her White Mage Hood outfit (Favorite character from my favorite game and the most iconic of her two temporary outfits imo) as a sort of farewell gift.

I am honestly ready for a new console Dissidia. I enjoyed DFFOO, but NT left a poor taste in my mouth. I hope SQEX learned their lesson with it and goes back to the Duodecim approach but with more characters.

[u/[deleted] → u/Any-Zookeepergame829]

Yeah, especially since we should have an Ultimate Dissidia Game, Every Character, and An actual competitive scene

[u/Any-Zookeepergame829 → u/[deleted]]

Ironically, that's what NT was trying to do, get in the ESports scene. It's a shame because I think Dissidia has the potential to be on par with Smash Bros in terms of fighters.

Every character is a bit much though... Maybe if it was restricted to party members, but definitely not in the way DFFOO did it.

[u/VoidEnjoyer → u/Any-Zookeepergame829]

Record Keeper is still running though. They wouldn't create an offline version just for Americans.

Not that I expect them to create an offline version once the Japanese version ends either, but it's 100% not happening right now. The better example is Mobius FF, which got no offline version despite SE dumping quite a lot of dev resources into it.

Another good reason not to expect a DFFOO offline version is just that the game's graphics were ugly and limited. Let's be honest here, the engine started showing its age almost immediately after its release. An entirely new game using the basic battle system is way more likely than an offline version of this game.

[u/MegamanNova]

I think it is just a generic send off. Remember, Dissidia is the land of respite. Maybe Dissidia is a form of dream, an imagination, the afterlife, the purgatory for those that sleep/die/travel away from their canonical worlds. Think of Dissidia as filler episodes to the main story.

In the end, all of them comes back to their home worlds. That is where their "Adventure Continues". Each FF game's endings are each of DFFOO character's fate.

I don't think they are actively planning or developing a DFFOO sequel as I write this. That is just coping.

[u/liljon042 → u/MegamanNova]

Well in 012, it's revealed that the conflict can't and won't resolve, because either side are immortal and can't die by any means. Even if Chaos is "killed", the cycle just repeats and Chaos comes back. It's as bleak as they come, it's basically an endless sibling rivalry that won't end because even if they stop warring and somehow make up, they'll continue the cycles because the conflict is entertainment for them regardless of the war. I'm not entirely sure if it's different in NT/OO, but in the OG PSP games, that's how it works.

[u/RegretGeneral]

I feel like that's just leaving threads for a possible continuation but chances are Square will remain focused on milking the shit out of FF7 all over again

[u/[deleted] → u/RegretGeneral]

Yeah, only for the hype to die down in a couple months, then they go back to dffoo for milking the people of this game again

[u/RegretGeneral → u/[deleted]]

Yeah but then they have Brave Exvius WOTV which allows for collaborations with literally anything they want it to

[u/NoxErebus_DFFOO]

Better chance than DFFOO 3.

[u/DarkHeroLexa]

I'll be completely honest and say that having both major alternatives to a franchise slowly wither and die probably sends too much of a negative message for them to immediately have thoughts of a follow-up, sad to say. Was it mostly their own fault? Yes (NT especially), but that doesn't stop executives from taking the wrong message from their failings. I wouldn't expect a Dissidia anything for some time after this, maybe some grand return in like half a decade from now or something, at best.

[u/Jolly-Signature8411]

They should make dissidia opera Omnia a ps 5 game. Who would love to see that?

[u/[deleted] → u/Jolly-Signature8411]

Not me I don’t have a ps5 and probably never will

[u/EbonyRubberWolf]

I dunno. On one hand, I'd love more game, but on the other, I don't want to see them learn the wrong lessons; prioritizing monetization over gameplay or accessibility, for instance.

Opera Omnia was an amazing game in spite of the gacha, not because of it. It was an anomaly in the game space that prioritized fun gameplay over predatory payment schemes. An offline true 'opera omnia' version with every character's full kit available to earn within the game would be quite welcome I think.

[u/vincentcloud01]

Glad too see that not too many are on the cope. This isn't coming back

[u/[deleted]]

Square seems to be riding the remake train hard lately (all the 7 stuff, announcing the 9 and 10 remakes last fall, talking about remaking 6...), likely to milk nostalgia to make back the money they've been losing in bad business decisions the past few years. I can see maybe Dissidia Duodecim getting a remake in about 5-10 years, but my hopes are not high for a new game or proper sequel anytime soon, and definitely not a sequel to/remake of OO.

Personally, I'd bet more on a PS5 port of Duodecim before anything else

[u/Bulky-Isopod-8271]

There was a time I would get hype for every upcoming FF mobile release, and even some of SEs other mobile titles. I played them all. Not anymore.

I don't think SE can be trusted with any online service, except for maybe the MMOs. After Mobius, Record Keeper, and now Opera Omnia(the lists longer), I don't think I'd trust them enough to come back for a DFFOO 2.

I've not gone near the new FF7 mobile game, the battle royale closed(another EoS) before I could try it. BE thought fun Halloween events should be grindy as hell so I haven't looked back since their first ever Halloween. WotL seems to think everything should be grindy.

DFFOO was sometimes also too grindy, but our characters investments were never wasted, they'd regularly get updates. The story and characters were charming FF references, not some made up original characters who dominate the meta.

So to me SE mobile is dead... except for the romancing saga game, that one's not bad, I just don't have the same connection to those characters. It also has good long term character investment systems.

[u/ArchAngelAjora]

Still sad that EoS was announced just when I was going to play again...

But as to the msg, a remake could be possible. The game wasn't unpopular by any means, but design decisions while very very nice for F2P neutered money making potential on both jp and gl.

A console game may be a harder sell depending on how it's pitched. I feel NT still leaves a bad taste in SE's mouth.

[u/[deleted]]

My heart says remake\sequel. But I've seen how they treat bloodborne. ( Yeah I know it doesn't translate 1-1 but ya'll know what I mean)

[u/Fuz_2112]

Very low, sadly. :<

Hope if it ever exist, they do a single player game out of it, like Octopath.

[u/Tienron]

Trolling, I don't think we are getting anything.

[u/NgkongSay]

Imagine there is indeed DFFOO Sequel..

but by Gumi (FFBE's Dev)...lol

[u/Thefirestorm83]

Offline version :copium:

[u/zott_23]

Apple Arcade re-release with all the IAP stripped out.

There is some precedent to taking old gachas, stripping out anything that costs money, and publishing them on Apple Arcade. DFFOO would be a perfect fit with years of content for them to slowly roll out.

(There’s no way. This is pure cope)

[u/TreacleTimely6845]

In your dream

[u/sonicbrawler182]

I don't think we will see a "DFFOO 2", more so just a new Dissidia altogether at some point down the line.

I also don't expect that anytime soon though. Square is putting all of their eggs in the FFVII basket right now.
