*Spoilers* KH3 Chat

[King Arthur13 51]

More so I will never wait for a game, nor will I ever devote my time and energy to anything like I did KH3

[Estoria#4001 19]

I guess that's more fair

[King Arthur13 51]

Like I'm not kidding this game was a part of me growing up

[Estoria#4001 19]

KH3 was definitely an event, its mere existence generating more hype than its content

I don't know if any other KH game will hit those heights

[King Arthur13 51]

Prolly not

[2 quid is good 2,209]

I think that part is the important part to consider, "devoting time and energy"

[Estoria#4001 19]

Probably not, if I'm being honest.

[2 quid is good 2,209]

Like you say, it was an event that brought together all sorts

[King Arthur13 51]

unless they have KH4 take like I dont know 14 years again then maybe, but lightning never strikes twice

I dont even think new players will ever feel the way alot of people felt about KH3

[2 quid is good 2,209]

Statistically I'm sure lightning would eventually strike twice

? Would take a long time

[King Arthur13 51]

I doubt the series will be around forever though

[2 quid is good 2,209]

Nothing lasts forever

[Estoria#4001 19]

Would take even more poor planning while we're at it, Quid.

[King Arthur13 51]

so by the time that happens most people who have loved this series will likely be gone

[2 quid is good 2,209]

But yeah, I severely doubt it'll ever reach as much of a fever pitch as this

[King Arthur13 51]

Like I bought consoles just to play the next entry of this series

Waiting for KH3 for me was like waiting for the conclusion to a long running book series

[Estoria#4001 19]

People will definitely still be hyped for the next games but it'll never have this lingering atmosphere of "this is the conclusion we have been waiting for".

[King Arthur13 51]

Each novel sort of got me more excited to see the end

[Estoria#4001 19]

No culmination of the whole story, no turning point for the plot, just another addition to the franchise

Who knows if Nomura even has an end to everything in mind, as far as we're aware he may be coming up with other arcs already as we speak

[2 quid is good 2,209]

I think not many people will look at KH3 and go "I'm done". It's definitely missing the mark for a decent amount of people but I think most fans are willing to at least see through to the next main game. And if that's in a similar vein to this one then we will probably see some kinda mass exodus. The promise of KH3 already managed to string along a lot of fans who weren't so easily impressed by the handhelds, so if a KH4 makes all the same mistakes as KH3 I reckon that will be the point that people will become "done" with the series

[King Arthur13 51]

Its a feeling that I cant really shake, like "did I really wait 14 years for just another sequel?"

[Estoria#4001 19]

Yeah, KH4 has a lot on its shoulders as it stands.

Just like KH3 also had a lot on its shoulders, though arguably KH3 had much more.

[King Arthur13 51]

KH3 had alot riding on it to me

Like we had so many things building to this moment throughout the series

[Estoria#4001 19]

I will definitely keep up with the KH4 news and see where the series is going, but I'll take more the role of observant and not really get sucked into the hype machine.

[King Arthur13 51]

Me neither
