Opera Omnia players must have already noticed, but the mobile game will end on February 29. Coincidentally, the same day Rebirth is to be released.
Now, Opera Omnia's end seems different from Record Keeper's end. Whilst the latter ended for lack of popularity and basically abandonment of the game, Opera Omnia will end because its story too has reached its end. Understandable. All stories must end at some point, this was no different.
Still, it's sad. The game is pretty good and very entertaining, be it the different mechanics of the characters or the very story and interactions.
There's only one thing that bothers me: Global will not get all the content the JP version got. You see, Global will only have the story until Act 4 Chapter 6, where it is right now; JP will have the fully story, until Act 4 Chapter 9. In these last three months, they could still release those story points in Global, a chapter per month perhaps, alongside Lost Chapters and Intercepting Wills. They say they will release videos with this missing content on Youtube so Global players can still get the full story, but it still bothers me. All we have now is a bunch of events to give us lots of upgrading stuff so we can complete as much as possible until the end of the game. Even Record Keeper added Arciela on Global during its last month or around that time. That said, since we won't be getting all content, I'll never get to play with Angeal, Rufus or Amarant, which I was really excited for (and Xezat is cool too, but I wasn't as excited as the others). And they could at least release the Spiritus quest of Odin; they're seriously gonna leave that one as the only one without a Spiritus quest and thus not able to reach level 50, are you kidding me!? The termination of this game seems to be kinda badly executed imo, but that's just me.
It had always been fun imagining which characters might've come to the game, from the most random picks to more obvious and possible ones. With the game ending, I'm disappointed characters like Genesis, Nero and Ravus never made it. Personally, I'd always hoped Kazusa would get added, and with certain characters already in the game that seemed much more random, I don't see why not, but I knew I'd have to wait until the end of times for it to happen. Now there's no chance. FFXVI never made it, nor did the full party of Stranger of Paradise, and don't get me started on the lack of characters from Tactics. Pretty sad other Tactics memorable characters like Delita and Cid never made it.
This does beg the question: will there be another Dissidia game in the near future? Or will they wait until more FF games are released to bring the crossover series back? Or has it completely ended.....
Man, I got to play this game for only a year. When it ends, it will be around a year and half. I got to play Record Keeper for two years before it ended. It almost seems like whenever I got to play a game it will end few years later. Welp, with OO ending, I guess I'll still have Ever Crisis. Still not sure I'll want to try Brave Exvius, but I could look into All the Bravest, if that one is still around. Or, otherwise, finally check Crystal Chronicles. But until then, I still got some time.
