[@JockenN]

That cocky quote "How the mighty have fallen" to Sephiroth.. Love it ^_^ glad to see one villain who's not at all kissing up to Sephiroth, or even seem afraid of him, and Mateus's voice actor does a splendid job being a snooty aristocrat xD

I haven't played FFII, but the Emperor is really awesome and pretty hot, especially in the NT graphics. Love his voice, too ^^ I like how he doesn't suck up to Sephiroth either.

[@YuuyaKZMI]

He doesn't suck up to anyone, it's not exclusive to Sephiroth. His entire gimmick is not to suck up to anyone because he is to rule over everyone.

Emperor Mateus can fit into Kingdom Hearts universe. Some of his demons could attack all of the worlds and Sora would have fight as a secret boss battle. I thought it might be cool!

[@OriginalKasym]

Kyle Naversen It would be, but an Emperor from literal hell would probably push that E rating. Plus the only FF's that go on there are ones that Tetsuya Nomura worked on, excluding "Setzer" from 6 and Vivi from 9

[@Myniced]

You already have a character called Lucifer and Maleficent using the power of Hell.

[@ezekielbaskerville2710]

And given that Emperor Mateus is a fan favourite in Japan, why not throw 'em a(nother) bone. And us. He's such an underrated villain.

[@ejelecflametails6657]

What about Squall from 8 and certain characters from 10 and 10-2 Besides, there's two facts you should consider, Kingdom Hearts is always E10+ after the first game, and Kingdom Hearts 3 is supposed to be the darkest game in the series, and will be likely to be Rated T Also, there are some Disney games that were Rated T, not counting Marvel or Star Wars, like The Incredibles and Tron: Evolution

[@CherryFanSub]

Even though there's no official statements about the similarity between Emperor and Bowie it's totally probable that Amano may have been inspired on him for Emperor's design since he was his fan, in fact he worked together with Neil Gaiman in a sci fi comic about David Bowie called The Thin White Duke :)

Exdeath: I would banish you to the Rift again but I'll give you a free pass for that utter burial of Mateus

[@GardevoirBoy]

The Japanese seem to think that Emperor Mateus is the most popular Final Fantasy villain. He is what I call, the Lucifer of Final Fantasy. Lucifer and Emperor Mateus started out as gods but later become demons due to them being stupid enough to rule heaven with an iron fist. The Emperor normally looks like Lucifer, but looks Satan-like when he's fought as the final boss in Final Fantasy II. The truth is, The Emperor wanted to rule heaven with an iron fist, but becomes a demon as punishment for disobeying god so he ruled hell as a result.

[@Bit01ByBit01]

Completly agree. He's pretty much satan a/o lucyfer of the FF titles. That's why I think FF2 had one of the darkest stories in the whole series.

[@Snofey1]

Mateus is really underated villain. I thinks he´s the greatest along with Kefka.. I mean, how many other villains actually managed to destroy the whole kingdom by poisoning peoples drinking water? And this guy is the lord of both heaven and earth, but he also sold his soul for a devil himself, and became the lord of hell too. What else? He´s cold, calm, and never looses his temper, polite yet really dangerous. He should send Sephiroth to hell xP love: Mateus fan~

So in the Dissidia universe is the Emperor the most powerful villain next to Chaos? I think it maybe Emperor and Ultimeca tied for highest rank and Kuja as the lowest

[@lassegt]

+thaneros Which is weird, considering the fact Kuja destroyed a planet and almost all of existence. Sephiroth almost destroyed a planet. Kefka wiped out most of civilization. Emperor almost conquered the world, heaven and hell. Ultimecia almost conquered all time and space and Jecht got drunk and killed a shoopuf.

[@dalilguellai4115]

[@deathstar6998]

Well if I remember in terms of lore this is where the villains are ranked. 1: Chaos 2: ExDeath (He existed before creation) 3: Ultimecia (Time and Space) 4: CoD (The physical manifestation of Darkness) 5: Kefka (God of all magic) 6: Kuja (Destroyed a Planet) 7 Sephieroth (The Ultimate life form) 8 Emporer (Conqueror became a demon) 9 Golbez (Possessed by a cosmic being) 10 Jecht (Is Sin) 11 Garland (A fragment of chaos) 12 Gabranth (Although a total badass he is just a loyal Judge)

[@reloadpsi]

I would actually really like to see FF2 completely remade from the ground up like 3 and 4 were. It would be a risky move because it's kind of the black sheep of the series and has every reason to be, but I think they could make a great villain out of this guy.

[@TerrifiedTam]

The whole "use skills to improve them" would work in a game with action based combat like Skyrim. If you gave FF2 the combat of FF15, it probably would translate really well. And the fact that Firion and friends can use multiple weapons just like the party in FF15.

[@supescape6323]

ReloadPsi It already was remade for PS1 & PsP. What it needs is a reboot, with extended story and a reworked battle system.

[@yaboi2500]

Supes Cape It should probably be the next game to be remade. Maybe they could remake both I and II, so we can get some insane boss fights.

You can't truly compare Gestahl with Mateus. Mateus is arrogant, proud and a true despot he is a tyranic SOAB who never lose his mind over stupid things like other villians do, he nevers falls into desperation and he is always "calm" at least most of the time he's very calculative and a brilliant mind whose only purpose is to control everything in the existance and he did "almost" because he controlled the earth, hell and heavens.
