The deranged Kefka has been confirmed to be the next crazy addition to popular arcade fighter Dissidia Final Fantasy, with Square Enix releasing a trailer showing off his assortment of moves and no doubt making some wonder as to when the game will eventually make its way to home consoles…
The eccentric trailer:
Kefka will assume his role as ruler when he arrives on June 30th; players can experience Dissidia Final Fantasy at Japanese arcades now.
Joker meets Deadpool
More Killing Joke Joker, really. Nowhere near as wacky as Deadpool, and darker than the Joker is usually portrayed.
This is really indicative of how the staff at Square-Enix is really out of touch with old IP since they had nothing to do with its creation. Kefka’s personality in FF6 is nothing like how they depict him in Dissidia, same goes for Cloud and other characters.
That’s pretty much my thoughts exactly. It’s like the current teams at Square did a quick skim of 6, went “Oh, Kefka dresses like a clown, therefore he must be silly,” while skipping the parts where he poisons an entire kingdom, including part of his own army, destroys the world, and slaughters innocents by the droves.
I swear most people who never even played the games seem to be the expert.
It fits his personality perfectly fine the ONE < game he appeared in. He was evil but he was also whimsical about it.
Actually play the game.
agreed. the sprites of ff6 actually have one of him, well, clapping his butt at the player/protagonists’ face. pre-world of ruin, he’s more to whimsical while post-ruin, he’s more affably evil
The best Final Fantasy villain of them all.
Where the f♥♥k is Tifa ( . )( . )
He looks like Ryuke from Death Note in that third picture.
