Do you know anytime when a north america release will be?
Or wat do u think?

North America release will be around the middle of May. There's no official announcement yet.

As for the characters, I was thinking Ven --> Aqua --> Terra. But if you think otherwise, I'd like to hear it. My reasoning is that Ven will probably me the most interesting, because:

- He's connected to Roxas/Sora somehow
- He has a lot to do with Vanitas, and confronts him at one point
- He's the only one we know that definitely meets Lea and Isa, and I'm guessing people will want to see that
- Nomura says Ven has the easiest playing style, so I can probably finish his story the fastest.

I wasn't sure who I'd pick second, but I'm guessing Aqua instead of Terra. I decided this because Nomura wants her to be played last, and Terra first, so I'm guessing Aqua's story reveals a lot more. Also, her armor ends up with Xemnas, and her story also seems to be tied with Vanitas' a lot.

I said Terra last, because his story seems kinda obvious from the start. Similar to Riku, he experiments with darkness, etc etc, meets Maleficent, and later uses darkness against Master Xehanort in the final battle, probably merging with him in some way.

But yeah, I was thinking Ven --> Aqua --> Terra, or maybe Terra before Aqua. Who disagrees and why?

I'm not sure yet. I would to do noruma's reccomendation of terra-ven-aqua, but I don't know. Ven sounds pretty cool. I might do ven- terra-aqua. But most likely terraa-ven-and aqua

i will have to wait even longer for the european release, but i will probably play terra-ven-aqua suggestion by nomura.

i may also stay away from this topic on this website until i get it. (I just dont want ANY spoilers hehe)

You should probably follow Nomura's order because it seems the story will make more sense that way but like Nomura said it is the players choice.

Bro, I think you should do it in that order also. Not only because It's "your" choice, but because It's actually the most important.

I will be playing as Ven first when I get it also, because like you said, he is linked to Sora, and Riku in someway.

Aqua is seen as less important then the 3. Why? This woman is part of the Gathering, she helps fight along side Terra, and Ventus in the middle of a war. Then she just vanishes?! No sir, her story might lead a few eyes to be opened up.

Terra's story is in a war now between first, and second place in importantcy. I'm 99.9% sure I already now how his story ends though. I think all of us do.


Play the characters in the order you choose man, again, I wont miss a freaking minute of it!

by the way, KenjiShiranui ;AIM; sup bro, lol
