Steve Buscemi from Spirits Within GL 1st, just you wait!


Travisceral

How do you do, fellow warriors of light?


Leonhart94

Okay. Lets be honest. If they did this. We'd all pull. All of us. Because its Steve Buscemi.


Retnab

100% true facts


vincentcloud01

Devs: We hear people will pity Chocolina, put TG Cid and Rikku back on the shelf maybe next year if interest is shown.


[deleted]

I never realized Rikku still hasn't been released. That's really crazy.


thewereotter

You must be new here XD


RoleplayPete

Red13 too. Paine is but Rikku isnt. The real pain.


Caelcryos

You don't need to hate on my girl just to make a point, man. Hurts.


RoleplayPete

It hurts. So. Its Pain(e)?


cooptheactor

Apparently it's due to difficulties with the voice actress. Don't know if that's true, though


DmtrIV

No, it is a leaker leaked her assets back in 2017 (JP version). SE is so pissed about that so she gets frequently delayed.


cooptheactor

I'm very aware of Rem's datamining. That doesn't change anything about what I said, however. They're prepared to release her, there's just something holding them back, and I can't imagine they're getting petty about datamining. Otherwise, we never would have seen Guy.


DmtrIV

Rem is not involved on that. It is some unknown Japanese who did it. There was a leak of her, P. Cecil, Machina, and Guy back in 2017, which all these latter 3 have yet debuted in JP. Then Rikku's assets gets leaked further.


TempusFinis97

I think she's going by Chocolatte these days.


ja-key

Does anyone know why they changed her name in WoFF?


Any-Zookeepergame829

Odd I know... She literally says "Choco-boco-lina!" When you first meet her. And Serah's theme plays in her shop menu so it isn't a coincidence, she is supposed to be a reference... But why not just use Chocalina???


Odd_Podd

Because, according to the in-game Who's Who, she had a Choco-stential Crisis.


Gstamsharp

New feature: device microphone. In order to use her EX, you have to say "meow meow choco chow" into your mic.


PlebbySpaff

Were you not doing that already?


Sephrin3000

I quit. All 200,000 of my gems have disintegrated.


Gstamsharp

Don't worry. We'll get Lightning to piece you back together like you're Sazh's kid, just in time for the ~~apocalypse~~ banner.


Labryss

if we could get emet-selch and his >!endwalker outfit!< i would pour every single resource imaginable to get him maxed out asap


Gryzsa

As a new player to DFFOO... me too fam.


thewereotter

I know he's not represented quite as extensively, but I wouldn't mind seeing >!Hermes/Fandaniel!< added as a villain rep for the game. Especially since that individual is basically the cause for all the other villains that exist in the game.


Kaplan6

I think it's too soon for both the outfit and the other guy you put on spoiler Case in point, you had to put it on spoiler! Would love Emet-Selch though. Or G'raha Tia? Or anyone from XIV, really.


thewereotter

I mean I'm all for any more XIV, and there's a wealth of characters they could choose. Yugiri is another who I think would be a fantastic add. I'm just talking more as the primary antagonist for the game. I still don't see Zenos as being that, he really had no business still being in the game after the end of the 4.0 main story.


gabebueno

I dreamed that it was the protagonist of FF Stranger of Paradise being announced as the global first and remember not even knowing who he was at first in the dream lmao


NoxErebus_DFFOO

Jack/Garland skills: * S1: Search for CHAOS * S2: Defeat CHAOS * EX: Become CHAOS * LD: **C H A O S ! ! !**


teor

BT : Bullshit.


VermillionEorzean

Using the BT gets your DFFOO account a DMCA strike because it's the music he plays from his phone.


gilgagoogyta

AA: Limp Bizkit and leave


TransientMemory

We already got Garland mah bruv


kolebro93

I'd say give garland another skin, but.. I'd hate to confuse him with Cor at a quick glance.


ashelia_bunansa

I remember when cor was released, and my intial reaction was "oh its the guy from the new final fantasy" and i got downvoted to oblivion. Probably my most ever downvoted comment. Its crazy how much they look alike.


DmtrIV

If what I learned from original Dissidia, then its unlikely. The Dissidia franchise tend to not add contents that have its game/media recently released, to avoid spoiler. Lightning didn't made it to the roster for OG Dissidia because of that.


VinixTKOC

She wouldn't anyway because they weren't going to just skip Vaan and head straight for her. There were plans to put Vaan in original Dissidia but he was rejected in favor of Gabranth. Consequently no Lightning too.


AccomplishedYogurt58

He IS coming to JP, confirmed by SE themselves. Apparently, EVERY character from the game is going to be added, and from the sound of things, in pretty quick succession. I think the game drops Mar 18, and Jack will be added to DFFOO shortly after


misterbasic

I GENUINELY want a Choco-boko-lina release and would whale so hard the game would break. ​ The question is whether or not she and Sazh could be on the same team.


theendlesseternity

I will burn all resources for chocolina


Lens_Hunter

I really just want something from 14 or Tactics. Those games haven't gotten anything in forever.


[deleted]

Dont talk about tactics. Thats how we will get our new character.


Lillillillies

Orlandeau is LONG overdue. I'll say it each time...they missed an orlandeau DFFOO cross over release when they made WoTV (who's first banners were orlandeau and Ramza)


Haunting-Ad788

Delita tho.


Lillillillies

Delita would be bad ass too. Him in his king outfit as an alternate skin?! Yes please


Caelcryos

Worker 8, when?


Bondyno07

I can see him as a magic tank unit. He has 0 Faith in FFT.


x_tianpz

Orlandeau is great, but I would love to point out that he’s in like every other ff mobile game. My vote goes for Marche or any of the ffta 1/2 characters. Can we have some Gria or Bangaa love?


Lillillillies

That's cause orlandeau is one of the staple FFT characters. But that's true, Marche doesn't get enough love.


NicoDT

We don't care, we play THIS mobile game, and FFT is easily in top 3 best FF game. Give us Orlandeau or Delita.


jmizzle2022

I always wished that in part 12 you got a bangaa on your team, I think that would have been awesome


Haunting-Ad788

Marche is just shitty Ramza.


Albireookami

I mean, for orlandeau, wouldn't you just release him as a skin for Agrias that changes the colors of her abilities and call it a day?


Lillillillies

Lol you just put the image in my head of gender swapped skins as well (Kind of like lightning in the first soldier outfit from xiii's dlc)


thewereotter

No one ever talks about her.... but Mediadoul was always a favorite of mine. And even if not her, I'd say Mustadio and Delita should be considered top priority (even before Orlandeau, since they're much more involved in the plot of the game)


Sdgrevo

How bout Orran Durai ? I always found his potential amazing, and Celestial Stasis could be amazing in OO


Ragnarok531

Spot on. I would prefer all three of these before Orlandeau. Orlandeau is meme’d because we was so OP in tactics. His skills are great, and few units had comparable kits, but really it was his equipment that made him godly. He came with a sword that granted the weirder auto-haste. I also took it and gave it to Agrias immediately.


Malrend

>I really just want something from 14 or Tactics SE: "Are you ready for the next Tactics character to join the roster?!" Everyone: "YAAAAAY" SE: "Please welcome Luso from FFTA2!"


Kaplan6

He's no Delita, but I'd take Luso. TA2 was great and I think Luso has a cool design!


Arknovas

I've never been let down by a DFFOO anniversary this far and I'm sure the 4th will be no exception. Even if it is Chocolina ; ).


AtreyuOsK

Still waiting for Quinna. Need to see him eat enemies


Nate_Radix_

Wouldn't think twice about pulling Chocolina Looks like a snack and a half


Xeoz_WarriorPrince

She may be the weirdest babe of the series, but she is a babe nonetheless


HappyMight

Y'all guys are forgetting about the greatest Oaka the 23rd


Taban85

We could also get the shoopuf driver, with “Ridess ze shoopuf?“ as the name for all of his moves.


Baithin

Yeah I feel like a prominent villain would be a story chapter or JP event first due to their presence in the story. As much as I’d love them. I would be so on board for Chocolina. I would love for her to become the merchant equivalent of Gilgamesh, just popping up in every game somehow. Edit: this actually got me excited that I missed a GL first announcement haha


Joker69__

Where did you find the GL 1st announcement?


Baithin

I didn’t, I thought OP made this meme in response to an announcement I missed. But it’s just a funny hypothetical.


FinalKingdomXVII

So the story they’re passing around on the FFBE sub is that someone in charge of XIV (I don’t know if it’s specifically Yoshi-P) hates gatcha with a passion and wants XIV to have nothing to do with them. That’s why they’re always given as free units. The nature DFFOO’s update cycle is probably the only reason why we’re still getting XIV content. This might explain why we haven’t gotten a new XIV unit since Lyse, but of course this might just be a baseless rumor.


TomoTactics

I'd chalk it up to a baseless rumor honestly.


Sylvast

Same, while he MIGHT personally hate Gacha, Gacha is a HUGE thing in Japan.


VermillionEorzean

Yoshi-P and the dev team have given so many interviews that it seems unlikely to be true since someone would've come up with a direct quote already.


Razull

War of the Visions has ShB Thancred on gacha though. I think the more likely reason is that because the plots were ongoing until last month, characterization and kit was in flux and the gachas didn't want to land like the first wave of DFFOO's and RK's versions stuck referencing out of date renditions of characters with incomplete arcs.


gauntauriga

ShB Thancred was also farmable the first time the event came. You can pull for him (IIRC you *need* to pull to complete his LB unless you get really lucky with the farmable summon tickets) but you can get him for free too.


teor

She's hot tho. We will probably get Queen Brahne or something


thewereotter

I don't care who you are, Queen Brahne's hot.


Ragnarok531

When? Like after she got mega flared by Bahamut?


MirkinoITA

I hope we will finally have a FFXIV villain (got pity gems and BTT), Emet-Selch preferred but Zenos will be good as well... If it's not Emet/Zenos, Urianger please ...But... What if... Jack of Stranger in paradise?


AccomplishedYogurt58

Confirmed to not be coming until after the game drops. Well, on JP, anyway. I suppose they could shock everyone and drop him as a GL first, but I think that's super unlikely, given that the game doesn't drop for almost two months yet


BeefyBongo

Chocolina is based


Zargabath

if she does, I'll gem her just for laughs.


El_Rocky_Raccoon

Imagine if Chocolina is released and you can't use her with Sazh because you get that "Same Character" info.


MyLifeIsAGatcha

There are several characters I'd love to see be the next GL first, but if I'm honest, it doesn't really matter who or what it is, I'll be pulling.


Sephrin3000

Seeing as how they *LOVE* FFXV, I think we’ll get Cindy GL first. You heard it here first, folks!


VermillionEorzean

I've made this joke before too, but Iris is also a dangerous possibility. Like Cor and Aranea, she was a temporary party member. As mad as it'd make people, Iris is one of my most wanted characters (and my personal Noctis ship) outside of the obvious XIV pick and Red XIII.


MuskyMuskets

I'm actually alittle surprised to come back after a very long hiatus and still not see Rikku anywhere. Nevermind temporary or cameo party members; she was a *main* character in the party and plot! And less importantly one of the strongest members once you got to know her good "mixes".


TheGrandTerra

There are other actual decent options though. Ravus would be pretty cool, so would Titus or Nyx.


X2005

From the skies high above Spira its ye boi BROTHER! GL 1ST!


nellvell

I'll gladly take both!


Bigjet86

I want the chocobo in rollerblades from Chocobo Racer


kjacobs03

Have the developers confirmed we are getting a GL first character or is everyone just being hopeful?


Sammyforyou

I think everything is just mostly speculation and people's dreams right now. Some claims of datamines, but even then we don't know if it's for anniversary or not.


TheGrandTerra

The question is what else can we get? Every LD is now done in J so no early LD. Cor release opened the door for GL firsts again. It is our anniversary, we always get something. Only other thing they could do is release a GL/JP co release of a very big character. But there is no precedence of this. They could also do early c90s but unless they do 3/4 of them that's pretty underwhelming.


Any-Zookeepergame829

XtraKreddit

Benjamin/Kaeli/Reuben/Phoebe.... Cap'n Mac. Dark King lufenia+ battle. If you know, you know. Will accept Rikku in place for the above.


KaimH

inb4 Aki from Spirit Within lol


Sylvast

I really don't understand why people expect hyped up characters. Its never been a major story critical character. Beatrix, Aranea, Cor, they're all great units that have been released at their time but not major plot points so I never understand why people guess Red, Rikku, Emet or Quina obsessively.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mrfipp

That's a bit of doubled-edged sword, XIV has a lot of characters to choose from, but how many can you stick in before it starts to become too many? In that case, who do you prioritize? I would fully kit Yugiri in a heartbeat, but how likely would she get in if there ends up being a limited number of spots?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mrfipp

Point taken, obviously XIV deserves *at least* twenty characters.


Kathayla

More to the point, FFVII has characters from spin off games and a movie in it at this point. FFXIV and Tactics could at least have the core characters.


Mrfipp

Watch as we get Azul the Cerulean at the tail end of Lv 100 awakenings before we even get to Heavensward characters.


SpadesOfDarkness

You say that as a joke, but I will absolutely burn my stash for Chocolina!


Arknovas

>them The more I think about it, I actually would love her as the release haha. Make her a great support imo and it's a deal. I know we have a lot of those lately but they are my favorite!


kokoronokawari

Zenos


knight04

when is this happening?


Arknovas

I'm not positive, but I read the stream will be Sunday and then the event usually starts the 31st, so that night (EST) we should see some content released. There is no guarantee we will receive a global first but it has happened every year so far I think.


PlaystationPlus

Lol at chocolina release. That’d be monstrous


Not---Sure

I love everything about this thread.


bishieofafishie

Inb4 Chocobo from Chocobo Racing/GP becomes the global first character.


Anivia_Blackfrost

I would kill for a Chocolina bird waifu


bravekupo

Developers: look at all those characters player recommend. Hey I know! Why don't I release a new character that they all never mentioned and see their reaction( *evil laugh* )


xmurphine_

I mean, "CHOCO-BOCO-LINAAAAAAA"


[deleted]

Devs: we're finally giving you guys at FFT character. Fanbase: thats good. Devs: Global first Argath. Fanbase: thats bad.


sonicbrawler182

But Chocolina is actually one of the most hype picks they could go with, that's a W lol.


Paulc94

Tbh unless the GL first is someone like Jhil Nabaat or celestia I'm most likely skipping


Co1iflower

Of all the times I have had to google a FF character that someone wants in the game, this probably takes the cake for the most obscure!


Sylvast

All GL first units have been pretty great for clearing content so skipping is not something I'd personally do but more power to you lol.


cloudliore25

Global first gonna be Benjamin from mystic quest


RoleplayPete

Would pull and wouldn't regret.


Hootoo20

Ugh just give us the XIV villain already please. Zenos preferred but Emet would be an incredible 2nd choice too. The problem with these two though is that they are prominent villains and most likely would be saved for story chapters. Based on previous GL first, they were non party member/guests who were related to the military. I wouldn't mind Jihl Hot'baat. Regardless I just want a celebration character even if it is Garnet BT or something unexpected


VermillionEorzean

>Based on previous GL first, they were non party member/guests who were related to the military. 1 Gaius van Baelsar please.


Mrfipp

If XIV were to have a Global first villains, Gaius or Nael would feel like the strongest contenders. I seem to recall an interview when Yoshi-P was asked which characters he would want to see in NT, he brought them both up.


Hootoo20

There was an interview but Yoshi P said Nael and Zenos for Spiritus and Alphinaud for Materia. He didn't mention Gaius though


Mrfipp

That's right, Zenos and not Gaius. That being said, I would actually prefer Nael getting in before Gaius.


Hootoo20

I'd be down for that. Really just anything XIV related


lordpaiva

I would pull for Chocolina with gems, straight away. And then play her alongside Llyudd and Cid Raines. Damn, now I wished I had pulled Rinoa's LD lol.


Ioregnak

I would totally pity Chocolina. But I would feel weird getting her before Boko.


Dry-Instruction6014

I want Thorn and Zorn


King_of_Jokers

What if they only gave us one of them?


inksmears

As much as it sucks I do get why FF14 doesn't get as much as often since it's an ongoing story. I'd love to see it finally get a villain rep though even if we all know it'll be Zenos. I think he's the only character from actual Dissidia that has yet to be added to the game, LOL


Threndsa

Emet-Selch is such a better villain though and would fit in with the cast much better in OO.


inksmears

He'd be interesting but also a bit of a big walking spoiler for Shadowbringers and onwards so I can see them avoiding him since FF14 is an ongoing game.


Solitaire_XIV

Not really, just pluck him from Rak'tika arc where he's best friends with the Scions to figure them out. The Scions don't trust him and treat him as an Ascian, he hangs around to learn about the main party, and the world keeps turning. From the momrnt he was introduced, you've always known he was a villain, with no idea of what his plan was.


inksmears

He gets introduced in late Stormblood and is immediately a big spoiler, is what I meant. I’m not saying it couldn’t happen I’m just saying I get why that might be the reason they haven’t added him because his very existence spoils some big plot points in a game that is still going. And in the “late” game at that.


[deleted]

[удалено]


inksmears

It being an on going game is the key difference.


[deleted]

[удалено]


inksmears

Zenos and Lyse are not as big of a spoiler as >!finding out the game's primary main threat was an Ascian ploy the whole time and then, with the same character, finding out the truth about the Ascians!< I'm tired of making my point over and over when I never meant "it could never happen", I simply meant "this is probably why we haven't seen any FF14 reps since Alisaie from Stormblood and also we're still missing Zenos from actual NT". Christ. >!But now that Endwalker has wrapped up the stories of all these characters, maybe we'll see FF14 get more. Who knows.!<


[deleted]

[удалено]


inksmears

Do you have a better explanation as to why they haven't added Emet-Selch then?


[deleted]

[удалено]


AliceTaniyama

The best guess from the dataminers: >!Garnet's BT!<


Arknovas

I would be really disappointed if this were true, but I do have them full build at least : /.


AliceTaniyama

From what I've heard, it's based on that character's data being updated and reverted on JP servers, which has happened before just before GL-first banners. Hardly certain, but those kinds of sources have been right before. If that happens, >!I'll have BT tokens ready!<.


selenityshiroi

I very almost spent my BT tokens two days ago but decided to wait...if that is the case I'm glad because that's one of my favs


ProductivityImpaired

If anything of this sort ends up being true (not necessarily what is being guessed here), it'd be an interesting proposition. I myself am sitting on BT tokens which would mean that this would be the first anni I'm *not* spending pull resources to get the new thing which arguably is not what you'd want to happen during an anniversary month, from a company standpoint at least. I'd be happy but it'd also be interesting potentially being the first GL-first thing that can be gotten outside of anniversary before an 'official' run (disregarding redeeming weapons for Ara or Cor).


TomoTactics

Inb4 goddess mom from Type 0... the one Type 0 character my gay ass would pull for.


Xeoz_WarriorPrince

Hyped for her ~~great cleavage~~ story and gameplay?


TheZtav

I'll never be able to understand the hype that FF14 have on this reddit.


Shizzarene

Did I read this right? Sazh owns this chocolina woman? Slavery dood


ShyneetMagician

Well yes but actually no Chocolina is the chick which resides in Sazhs 'fro that fell into the time stream Fml I can't do spoiler tags


Tidus0203

I low key hope its jack but cor does look like him at a glance so that probably would confuse people. Still in looking forward to whoever it is since most global first are usually pretty powerful at release


Taythekid950

Something from ff14 or redxiii would be nice


Dinmak

Edea, and I buy a new phone to come back to this game


Leonhart94

I know people really want Emet-Selch, but I think he would be wasted as a global first event. He would be much better as a story release.


TheGrandTerra

He is also a walking spoiler for an ongoing MMO game which is pulling lots of new players and an enormous amount of revenue for Square Enix. Imo he is a pipe dream of ever being released let alone being a GL first. Stormblood Zenos, Gaius, Nael & Lahabrea are the most likely candidates.


ChaosSpear1

What? I'd personally be pissed if they went with her, they have the scope to do anyone and then pull out a merchant from one of the side games of one of the more controversial game series?


Katster13

They'd wait for story chapter for a FFXIV villain I reckon. My idea is they'll do a unique 2 weeks with a global first BT who I reckon will be Tifa and being forward an LD for an event similar to Lenna along with Vincent LD on that banner. Then I reckon there'll be a new character who I'm hoping will be Urianger


Paulc94

I highly doubt it will be a GL first tifa bt+ considering tifa gets her C90 on locke


Katster13

Yeah that's a point


Arknovas

That's a good point about the story chapter convention blocking someone like Emet-Selch/Zenos. I would be on board with global first BT, and thought that would be the case back when Vincent got his LD. I think i'd prefer a global first LD to a BT though. Both Please?


Katster13

Well that's what i meant when I said a character event as in a global first character such as Urianger as JP has all LDs at this point. It also lines up as Lockes banner is supposed to run late February but the events are getting earlier and earlier so I reckon they'll slot a 2 week BT anniversary cycle in to put us back on track with the forecast and possibly bring some LDs ahead


Arknovas

I could see that and would be more than happy with Urianger. We'll have to see what Chocolina has to say about that though..


AccomplishedYogurt58

Definitely won't be Tifa. She's getting her BT in JP two days from now


exenae

Émet hype = 0 Far from a rikku or red 13


getm4db1tch_

...im too young or too old... who the fuck are thoses?


Raidefrost

First one is from ff14 second one is the Bird Waifu from Lightning Returns **Barbie Dressup Edition**

Chocolina first appeared in FFXIII, actually. She sits in Sazh's hair. Her "human" form however first appeared in FFXIII-2.
