Day 4. Least Favourite Dissidia Stage

Okay so in Day 3 I broke down the concept of the favourite stage in to two seperate forms; the visually pleasing and the mechanically / gameplay pleasing. Luckily the least favourite stage does not need that kind of sub-division; for quite simply there are levels that SUCK. Now, when thinking about why a level sucks total ass, there are different things to consider but it all amounts to a single idea - the level is not good for a reason (or many).

Now, pretty high up on my list is that god aweful cesspit known as Planet's Core and by all that is Moogle, that leve does SUCK. It's annoying, vomit green, there's barely anywhere to get your footing and if you insert Sephiroth in to the level he becomes a dodge-happy raving bastard that makes me go >:U  in real life (tru fax!)

However, Planet's Core is NOT  my least favourite (or most sucky)  level. I actually have two levels I  dislike pretty much equally but the one I seem to get dragged in to most during Dissidia Story Modes is;

(Please forgive the art, I fail at backgrounds! m(_  _)m)



ULTIMECIA'S  CASTLE... Fffffffffffffffffff-- I  HATE  THIS  FREAKING  LEVEL!!!!!!!
(In particular I hate the Ω variant deeply)

Now, there are many reasons that I hate this level;

- It's cramped
OHHHHH  HELL  IS  IT  CRAMPED!! D:< I mean... seriously, I can't seem to find a single good place to fight; I either end up flying into the void-cieling or falling into the void floor it's wall-to-wall VOID!

- Those Ω Clock gears!
ARRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!  I  HATE  THOSE  FREAKING  CLOCK  GEARS  (drop the 'L' amirtie?) Seriously, who in their right mind thinks it'd be epic lolz to have clock gears of hellish doom that just go out of their way to attack people?!

- It's GLOOMY
Okay, I know it's a gothic-inspired, Sorceress-of-Doom's castle but seriously... it's greeny-BLUE  and dirty-GOLD, those are the main colours and it's just not shiny / pretty enough! (/ shallow)

- Ultimecia + this level = HATE
Only a selective group of characters can use this level effectively, everyone else just gets BRV-raped!  >:U

- Ground or Aerial or neither?
Kind if related to 'it's cramped', but I have yet to find out which form of combat is more effective. That giant random railway spiral kind of stops aerial combat from working, but then there's so many tiers and a distinct lack of large space for ground-combat. THIS LEVEL HATES COMBAT!  ヽ(≧Д≦)ノ

I could have been a contender...
In close second was Kefka's tower for pretty much the same reasons; cramped, gloomy and hard to fight in the air or on the ground. However, I do like smashing those test tubes up, so Kefka's level was cut some slack.

So yes, good game level designers, you've trolled us all with your fantastically sucky levels such as Kefka's Tower, Planet's Core and FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-- ULTIMECIA'S  CASTLE!!!  凸( ̄皿 ̄)凸 Now plz delete them off the face of Dissidia and put in some good levels, kthx!

Anyway, back on to bigger and better things tomorrow: my favourite attack~! Gee I wonder who could possibly be in the running for that...?!

dissidia, meme
