you know what I like about the actual main fight with the emperor? it's authentic. the empire is dangerous because the emperor is surrounded by resources and loyalists, he's one villain made by his army, thus when you fight the emperor, you go up against his army, his men, and his royal guard, all to wear you down before you can so much as touch the man himself.
@@primosdesegundograu1204 i always had the feeling amano based mateus art/likeness in a similar fashion to that of david bowie. more specifically, as jared the goblin king. never had any concrete proof over this theory though.
There's a cute little irony: the theme that plays during the waltz segment? Taken, rather appropriately, from Johann Strauss's "Emperor Waltz." A bit on the nose, don't you think?
The Emperor is actually one of the strongest villains in the Dissidia Fighting game series and a master manipulator. He can also assume his demonic form at will.
I love how his battle theme is the standard boss theme, i wish he dropped a "Cyclone" tome, i know we got the conch, but c'mon its his signature spell, just as starfall is his go-to final boss blast
I would like to know more about Emperor Matheus's past. His megalomaniacal behavior and belief that absolute power is the only thing that keeps the world running can demonstrate some trauma related to a lack of control over events in his life and perhaps envy towards some people in his life. Now, his possible need to govern the three planes of existence, may reveal something extremely personal. Like, wanting to decide who lives and who dies. Who does he think is more worthy of living and who does he think deserves more punishment and who deserves eternal rest when he dies, revealing a feeling of injustice, hence he possibly divided his own soul by instead of mastering both spectral aspects of reality as one soul, because he wants total effectiveness in this selection process, that things happen in the way that he considers to be the perfect one, and that the universe that constantly tormented him approves. Another thing that I realized about the Emperor, is the reason for his belief that the human being is imperfect and evil to be absolute. He believes that the human being has lost love, because people like Leon preferred to value their ambitions over their loved ones, and although it benefited the Empire, as we saw through the "Emperor of Light" part, he is completely impartial regarding his judgment of the human race due to his eyes being constantly closed, so, whether we belonged to the Empire or the rebellion, in the end, we would be just another despicable and corrupt human, the difference is that belonging to the Empire, you would not be exterminated because you were needed as a soldier. He also believes that the human being has a weak and wrong sense of justice, because as we saw throughout the game, the heroes make an alliance with pirates, who are known for looting, slaughtering and enslaving people, and a thief, however who knows if the rebels hadn't other thieves at their service, these less moralists than Paul, when the heroes should refuse to negotiate with people who, without an enemy to face like the Empire, would be hurting, bribing, killing, blackmailing and corrupting morally people who were honest and respectful of the law, and that the only reason for them to work with the heroes is because the Empire is a common enemy.
@@JabamiLain I'm pretty sure it's been explained already, there's a light novel in Japan explaining how the Emperor's Father made a pact with the devil or something along those lines, and that's why Meteus is so horrible as well.
@@lanzer6990 It's the Ripper. The Ripper does an extra 20 damage for every hit. So hitting 8 times shows the base damage number and the second one is the bonus damage, which in the scenario I gave you, is 160 damage.

@@twngohaombre5602 there's already a official book in Japan, released a long time ago I think. You can find out about it if you read the Emperor's wiki
The Emperor's mother was actually a kind hearted woman. His father's bloodline was literally bedeviled which is also why he was born with great darkness in his heart and he had such a natural born talent in the use of the black arts.
I don’t think the Japanese Novel is canon however I really wish that the part about the emperor’s past in that Novel was canon because I believe the Emperor’s past is left unknown in the game. It’s kinda a bummer we don’t know what his past is and how he became the way he is in FF2.
One:defense is not good 2: magic is on your side Red soul is the chaleging one for absoving aloot of the elements sadly it has pitiful mp 3: you can use teleport even on final boss

And golem
Yep, don't forget his wood golem.
I don't know about The Emperors battle sprite. He looks like he's going "Ooga Booga I'm the Emperor! Are you scared?"
TheFatestPat
Reminds me of Shiv Palpatine!!!
Mateus Palamecia sounds very similar after all...
It's based on one of Amano's drawings where he is doing that same pose.

He looks like a mantis
He's tiptoeing his way to bed so he doesn't wake up anyone

That waltz scene is the silliest thing. omg
The exact same sequence is in 6 and no one complains about that one.
Ikr, where is gigga chad beaver speaking guy in that scene anyway?
That waltz reminded me to the intro from Castle Crashers.
Fun y how the Emperor is the same size as a Golem and his knights are little children on hourses
This game is fantastic!!!
is it weird that my guy's intelligent was highest?
You know given this was suppose to be a remake, it would’ve made sense to give Ricard the jump command since he’s the series’s first dragoon
They didn’t really have commands like that in this game, though. They did give him spear proficiency, at least.
And father of kain of ffiv too
I love how his battle theme is the standard boss theme, i wish he dropped a "Cyclone" tome, i know we got the conch, but c'mon its his signature spell, just as starfall is his go-to final boss blast
My favoutie boss battle in FF II
I thought the emperor was a good villain even if he was a bit lacking in personality.
If by good you mean destroying most of the population of world then yes, he did wonders in that.
I never said that I liked him as a character.

There is for gba as well

Why is the music lagging?
How tf does Maria who starts with the least hp have the second highest here
basically in FF2 you get hp by getting hit, so she has been hit a lot by enemies.
I don't Understand Why They had to Put The Most Coolest Theme for the Royal Guards and put the Other One for The Empereor
Truw
Yeah they invert
So Tell Me, Who's The Emperor Of Palamecia From FF2 Or Dissidia And Who's The Emperor Of Palamecia's VA?

Random comment droping by...oh, give someone a lvl 10+ protect and get him like invencible and not share them magic instead.
Why is every enemy/boss so damn easy ??

2: magic is on your side
Red soul is the chaleging one for absoving aloot of the elements sadly it has pitiful mp
3: you can use teleport even on final boss

Why not dual wield?
Daniel 28893 because having a shield increases your evasion, and evasion is op in this game
Nicolas Caetano Dual wield is op too but, understood.
Actually, high shield level also increases critical rate
I dont like Guy with a shield, he's kind of my main damage dealer with 2 axes
Because shields and evasion are kind of broken in this game
Wow, these music cues are... just dreadful.
PSP seems to take quite long to load them.
