FFWD @eaedwards6400
1. -Morale is still pretty low. Playable, but do we want it to be that bad?
2. -We're missing performance skills for: Squall, Terra, FF1, Black Mage, Nero, Prishe, Sazh, and possibly Shantotto
3. -ME is pretty heel heavy. I assume it'll help once Squall has perf skills (and Lightning has non-zero pop), but can we reasonably faceturn any of Seph/Mateus/Garland/Jecht/Kefka/Ultimecia?
4. -Might need to buff these guys a bit, actually. I am actually booking shows for this round of playtests, so I can no longer blame these mediocre ratings on the autobooker! We fell to National in two shows.
5. -Could maybe use a couple more people on the main roster- we're at the exact minimum. But then you can call up folks from FFT or raid the indies pretty easily, so this isn't necessarily a problem....unless you do a Hardline Stance the second show and lose a huge chunk of dudes, lol
6. -Exdeath has turned pretty much everybody against Bartz
-Harth Stonebrew keeps becoming the owner of Comics, lol

1. Okay. So we could probably turn down some of the animosity lol. I opened up your screenshot.

-Barthandelus is kind of a dick with Lightning and Sazh. That one's pretty personal because he's basically ruining their lives so that one's the same.
-Bartz and Ex-Death could be turned down. Bartz is more of a pest to Ex-Death.
-Cecil is weird because *SPOILER* he and Golbez are related and there is no other way to have simmering tension and blood relative. If we want to go just Blood Relative instead of family feud then we can probably keep that the same.
-That point for Cecil goes for Jecht and Tidus and Kuja and Zidane.
- Final Fantasy 6 is so screwed up I am almost inclined to keep Kefka, Terra, and Celes the same.
-Gilgamesh is rivals with Bartz and worked for Ex-Death. His can be turned way down.
-Onion Knight and Cloud of Darkness also don't need to hate each other.
- Ultimecia tries to control Squall's girlfriend so she probably needs to stay the same.
- Finally, I don't know why Black Mage, Mateus, Lady Lilith, Mog, and Ultros are upset about because I don't remember them disliking anyone.

2. I don't know what the performance skills are on the top of my head.

3. So I went back and looked at the spreadsheet and it was supposed to be an even 3 and 3.
Faces: WoL, Cloud, Lightning
Heels: Garland, Mateus, and Sephiroth

I know you took Cloud for Character Battle and Lightning had no popularity stats so that means the system had 1 face to 6 heels lol. Fixing Lightning, would make it 2 faces and 5 heels. Basically, it looks like they are looking for 8. So if we bump Squall to ME and Jecht to ME it should give us.
Faces: WoL, Squall, Lightning, Cloud
Heels: Garland, Mateus, Sephiroth, and Jecht.

4. This is surprising to me because the FFWD kept dominating the Power 500. Do you think it might be the product settings or do their stats just need buffed?

5. So with the New Dissidia Game coming out Ramza is included in the roster so it may not be the worst thing to add 3 FFT's to the roster. Plus, I added 6 people for FFXIV or FFXV. Were they there when you played? They also added Ace from Type 0. If I do the whole, Face/Heel/Tweener thing that I have been doing. That's an even 12. Would that make the roster big enough?

6. I know this is bad but it's a little funny that an evil overlord is manipulating people against his enemy. Perfect villain move there.

To CPU/Lopen's points we could probably Garland, CoD, Golbez, Sephiroth, Kuja, Ject, and Gabranth all a bit nicer.
