- - Kerensky is still obsessed with Dissidia Final Fantasy (http://www.nuklearforums.com/showthread.php?t=35448)

To be fair, the way Square sucks off their franchises, it would be more likely to be:

FF1 - Red Mage
FF2 - Maria / Leon maybe
FF3 - Luneth
FF4 - Kain (Rydia probably not due to the summoner thing)
FF5 - Faris / Galuf (depending on their view of the female count)
FF6 - Locke (to fill the empty thief role)
FF7 - Vincent (almost as popular as Cloud, had his own game and VA)
FF8 - Rinoa
FF9 - Vivi (again, no summoners, and he's been in KH already with voice)
FF10- Auron
FF11- No idea
FF12- Balthier / Basch / Ashe / Vaan (really up in the air here)
FF13- Lightning

There's a flirty dude with a monkey tail that would like to have a word with you.

We were assuming no repeated characters between them, though.

Edit: Let me just say that Zidane is one of my favorite characters of the series and by no means do I have any illusions that they're not going to do some repeats in the next title.

I think Bells and myself count as a "we."

Edit: I could have probably made that clearer, but seeing as I modified his list, I sort of assumed.

Well, in all fairness I totally ignored anything he had to say other than the list itself, so I'm all right with calling it even.

Luneth's already in Dissidia. They would probably go for another class (say, Summoner or something).

Kain is confirmed to be in the next game.

I called Takahashi and Ikeda (Ryuji Ikeda: main programmer), and talked about some ideas for a sequel. I said to think about stuff to do and be prepared. But circumstances within the company meant that idea went straight back to the drawing board. Kitase asks me, �aren�t you going to do it?� but�

� But you do have some concrete ideas you�re working around in your mind, right?

Nomura: Well, if we did a sequel I think Kain is definitely in (laughs). I�ve got a lot of interesting ideas, but as far as the situation goes actually going ahead with the project would be tricky� If there were enough demand for a Dissidia II, the situation might change, so I think I�d like to rethink it at that time.

It will be Ashe, since both Balthier and Vaan have already had their crossovers.

Nomura: I don�t have that deep a knowledge about all of FFXI�s characters, so all I said was basically, �in terms of popularity, the Tarutaru are popular, right? And Shantotto seemed like a popular character?� When it came to finally deciding on who it would be, it was down to Shantotto and Prishe, but I basically left it to the development team. As for FFXII, the other staff recommended Balthier, and it seems like they kept talking it over with each other. �Vaan�s the main character, isn�t he? No, Balthier would be better.� In the end they decided that Balthier appearing again, after having just appeared in �FF Tactics: War of the Lions�, wouldn�t be much of a surprise. And the FFXI and FFXII characters are treated as guest characters, so it was settled on that we�d move away from the main character types this time, and finally it went to Gabranth, who had an impact being in the logo for FFXII. Also, we�d wanted to include Lightning from FFXIII, but its staff thought that it wouldn�t be a good idea to reveal the abilities she uses in FFXIII here first, so we gave up on having her in the game.

If it makes you feel any better, I was mostly just in a hurry.

With Nomura at the helm? Enjoy your Eald'narche.

I think that although Sabin, Edgar and Setzer are all very important in FFVI, Locke played a more important role at the beginning of FFVI what with constantly saying he'd be there to protect Celes and Terra and kinda helping bringing everyone together and such, in comparison to the other three, who only started to shine in the WoR as the initial 3 party members to accompany Celes (albeit, Setzer was required considering you needed him to get into Kefka's tower due to him having knowledge of how airships work where the other airship is). There just seemed like there was much more character development to Locke and Celes was the central figure in WoR, having also shown plenty of character developement, so my bets on those two, more leaning towards Locke because Celes would be more of a copy of Terra.
