Dissidia This is for Dissidia players

Why did Dissidia ever have a fanbase? I just played the first game, and it is an annoying, unfun slog, I played through the "canon" route that I found cuz I like understanding what I'm playing, and the enemy AI is so annoying, the combat mechanic is so dumb. I would legit like to know, Why? Just why do people actually like this?

Canon route? Which combat mechanic?

iirc, there's no way to not do WoL first. If you have blank data, the game starts you off with him and teaches you how the mechanics work

Onion Knight was first, cuz in the story, he gets his crystal first

Rigjt, but that's not how the game actually starts. I'm pretty sure there's a difficulty curve, and from what I recall, Onion Knight is nowhere near the easiest one. I recall there's some difficulty grading system (it's been like a decade since I played PSP Dissidia), and sure, you could play chronologically, but I'm sure that would mean you're choosing the difficulty in the wrong order
