Dont let that 5th emperor title get to ur head ?

 

[Estoria#4001 19]

If anything this has been extremely entertaining

Also I'm still on Water 7

[KH-Queen 13]

I'm just glad that it was a calm debate

No extremeness

[Estoria#4001 19]

I said that, because it feels like it's essentially ignoring the flaws the series has presented so far, to an extent. It feels rather hyperfocused on the lastest entry, a lot being because,well.. it's the lastest entry, and all our attention is upon it.

[Estoria#4001 19]

Amate, I've been going through KH2 again lately

I wanted so hard to like KH3 that I was actively trying to convince myself that KH2 was the same thing with the same problems

And you know what? There is some truth to that

I found the first visit to Beast's Castle almost disposable

But there are things that I just couldn't deny to myself

When SDG first got to Hollow Bastion, I felt a surge of emotion and satisfaction much greater than I did during KH3 as a whole

The scenes where Sora reunited with Kairi and Riku in TWTNW hit me harder than the entirety of the Keyblade Graveyard sequences

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

Well, at that point.. doesn't that basically boil down to your attachment to KH2? And the fact that, perhaps, it lacked an element you greatly loved and enjoyed in it? Isn't this basically nostalgia playing it's hand, as your essentially reexperiencing that game?

Nothing wrong with all this..

[KH-Queen 13]

can't really say much because i get emotional every single damn game LMFAO

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

Otherwise you wouldn't be here for this ride

[Estoria#4001 19]

Nostalgia? Not at all

The first time I played KH2 was last year

No real nostalgia to speak off

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

Yes.. and you can be nostalgic as you replay something

[Estoria#4001 19]

Yes, you can

But I really wasn't

To be honest my memory is pretty bad

As it stood I had forgotten about 90% of KH2 already

It was almost like I was playing it for the first time again

I don't believe nostalgia was really playing a factor

I was just enjoying myself more

If anything this just goes to show how great KH1's story was

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

I would think it does, when a game like Kh2 is something you've experienced once before... You can feel those feelings again and how much you enjoyed something despite having mostly forgotten it all, because the experiences of it likely is still there. Scientiically, memories don't necessarily just go.. "poof",the pathways just simply stop needing to be used.

But that said, I don't think I go to Kh for deep analysis,obv..

[Estoria#4001 19]

Alright, I accept that

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

Infact,Kh wouldn't be in my top five of narratives

And yet.. I don't know.

[Estoria#4001 19]

I don't see how that goes anything I've said

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

Maybe it's because it's my first video-game? Maybe because it had someone i knew attached to it? Could be anything

But i can safely say it's my own nostalgia that keeps my attachment going. And that's not a deflection or anything.

It's just.. simply there.

[Estoria#4001 19]

And I can definitely say that in my case it was not nostalgia at all

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

it's a feeling, it's a sensation, that we as a sapient species feels

[Estoria#4001 19]

You can keep saying that it was and I'll keep saying that it wasn't

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

Though, why would it be bad if it was?

There's nothing wrong with it, and it doens't invalidate anything here.

[Estoria#4001 19]

It would technically be bad because nostalgia is kind of a plague in the sense that it can dwarf your view of something

So one could argue I'd be looking at KH2 with rose-tinted glasses

You have not done this and I commend you for it, Amate

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

I wouldn't say so, honestly.. Like,listen... You know how most RPGs, your party members are controllable? this is mildly off-topic but it's a point i wanna bring up..
