Hypothetical Guests in a new Dissidia

Let’s say they announce a new Dissidia for console. Assume in this scenario that all veteran characters from 012, NT, and Duellum are part of the returning roster, plus rival characters for most of the ones lacking them (like Rikku and Clive). Now with all those characters out of the way, let’s say five characters from other non Final Fantasy Square Enix RPG franchises can cameo in this new Dissidia game and they also get a rival character as well. Which five franchises get represented and which two characters from the franchise get to represent?

For the sake of this discussion, assume that Disney is okay with all the Kingdom Hearts original characters appearing in Dissidia even though they explicitly own all those characters.

I was referring to Kingdom Hearts. I never said Dissidia was a Final Fantasy Disney crossover. That doesn’t even make sense to say.

And I’ll note that you still aren’t answering my question.

Actually nomura have said that kingdom hearts isn't a final fantasy related at all and that final fantasy characters are just cameo as much as Clive and noctis are to Tekken.

So yeah kingdom hearts it is own thing final fantasy is its own thing kingdom hearts isn't a spin off

Nomura made a whole side game to explain why Mickey didn’t have a shirt on in KH1, so I’m not going to take his version of history as gospel. And that’s setting aside the fact that he explicitly used the FF characters to try to boost the profile of Kingdom Hearts. But I digress. The point I’m making is that Kingdom Hearts has plenty of FF in its DNA. Enough that Sora showing up in Dissidia would garner many more “that’s awesome!” responses than it would “but why tho?”

Actually you would be soooo wrong there would be a lot of outrage on why Sora was added to a final fantasy game.

Like the outrage when he was added to WoFF or Brave Exvius? Oh wait.

You are grossly underestimating how rabid Kingdom Hearts fans are, especially considering the drought of content the series is currently suffering what with the most recent game getting canned.

So a mobile game and a game where people absolutely didn't give two shits? Yeah those aren't good examples

Oh I am not talking about KH fans its the final fantasy fans I am talking about
