As far as dialogue and cutscenes go, do you think that? I do, I mean the dialogues are just plain awkward with a bunch of cheesy melodramatic lines (And the voice helps to make it even more awkward) like how in every cutscene the guys are just walking down a stage and they say "its this way!" and there is only one way to go :P and when a bad guys shows up and has 2 manikins with him and face 4 good guys, the good guys go like "OH NOES RUN HE HAS 2 MANIKINS!!!" and the manikins just jump around they dont even attack when they surround the characters in the cutscenes.

plus, the lines when the fight begins, I mean, I gotta say this, but I think squall is terrible, as far as skills and moves goes he is one of my favorite characters but when it comes to dialouge...oh boy...like that line he has "you may cut my claws but you'll never get my fangs" or something like that, its just soooo cheesy or when he tries to play "tough guy" or "I dont care" guy, the voice actor is good, dont get me wrong, but the lines just feel so terrible.

and the plot itself too, nonetheless I like the gameplay and i've put like 150 hours into it :P

 imo they just get worse in 012, they added a bunch of new lines that sound so stupid, for example squall's winning line "what a stupid mission" I think that one is new and its cheesy as hell.

or when vaan treats onion knight as a kid (thats another thing that I hate, they present a situation, but they do it so badly you cant understand how would anyone feel dragged about it) and squall comes in and says "sucks to be us right?" 

and how kefka says that terra is destruction incarnate and that she hides completly amazing power yet terra is the worst character in the game :lol: or she gets under kefka's mind control and fights onion knight, then kefka tells her that she "almost destroyed everything!" and the she should be considered a weapon of mass destruction, for a single fight...seriously? :lol:

and the characteristic line you said sucks too...like when zidane says "do I need a reason to help someone?"

the fact that the cutscenes always occur in a stage and not in some other unique scenario doesnt help either, and theres always the same music for every situation.

At this point, the topic should have been called "Dissida, a terrible game" due to the amount of Hate directed towards it. Seriously, It obviously Fan service(especially seeing as it was brought out for the anniversary of the series) but every single Final Fantasy game has awkward, cheesy diologue-not just dissida in particular (Final Fantasy X's "fake laughing scene" for example)

But I'm going to insult any character, Its Cloud Strife. His english voice actor is probably the worst I've ever heard. I thought Keanu Reeves was the only monotone I'd ever listen too, I was wrong. And sure, Tidus is a bad(horriblyterrible) example of teen angst but you shouldnt go as far as actually getting pissed off because somebody actually likes him as a character, thats abit overboard dont you think?>.>

Lastly, The games on the PSP, you cant expect them to be able to present what you'd want from a console- FF game. I honestly think they did pretty good with the PSP, best looking game on the handheld I've seen.

It may be the best looking game but nowhere near the best on PSP.

For me the battle system is the shining point and it's fun. It's not a bad game but the diologue is plain terrible and not very well thought out.

I don't know if you guys are critics, or I just don't pay attention that much... or maybe it's just cause I just play the game and deal with the dialogue, i dont know, but first off, I haven't played Dissidia, so I don't know how terrible it gets... but I know I have played all the main Final Fantasy title games, and I can't remember any that could be considered cheesy or terrible...

Maybe it's just cause I'm old :? lol :P

Enlighten me someone... if you'd like :D

I can, If you read my comment I used the " fake laugh" from Final Fantasy X as an example. I actually cringed at that point in the game, or maybe I'm just too immature to listen to scenes like that.:P

its a great game, dont get me wrong, its just the plot and dialogues that suck, I expected much more clear refferences to the games of the saga but besides some lines and special things there arent really a lot, for example for FFVIII the only refference you get about the game is squall catching a feather in the ending and one part when he says he promised someone he'll return home (which is odd, since the guys have no memory of what happened)

I expected more refferences from 012 but its not really that different because, like I said, the guys have no memory so they dont know what they did and they never mention a character who does not appear in the games.

 and this, the dialog doesnt feel cheesy and stupid in this cutscene, but I just think its made poorly...they are supposed to be at war and vaan just walks past kefka and says he wont get in his way.

I was looking for the vaan and onion knight report, which is definitly one of the worsts in the game, its just made so badly you cant help it but to feel bad because you dont get "sucked in" the story.

Actually, during dissida's "storyline" they regain their memories during the conflict, so its very likely Squall actually does remember rinoa. Also, I did the same thing when I played it through the first time. The times afterwards, I just clicked mute.:D

Oh yes, that fake laugh scene was the stupidest thing I have ever seen in any game ever! When I saw that part, I was literally thinking "WTF"

If Dissidia is like this, then yes, I would understand... :?

It was a cute scene and all, but it's just like a "is this neccessary" thing
