*Spoilers* KH3 Chat

Especially when they didn't even flesh out the old ones

[MeowWow 14]

Just make them blank replicas with a fragment of xehanorts heart, make them do stuff. Then you have villains and less needless monologues with an added level of mystery.

[King Arthur13 51]

I think this wouldve resolved alot of gripes with the obligatory desire to have every character who doesnt already have an established origin tie into UX

[MeowWow 14]

Exactly

[King Arthur13 51]

Like I think its annoying that they make the idea that Xehanort was putting his heart into people in KH DDD like it was actual possession and then in KH3 they make it like it means bascially nothing

Nomura really did drop the ball with KH3

[Otti#8624 26]

See, I doubt that would actually solve your problem. Right now you are going with the mindset that you didn't like Marluxia there and would rather prefer blank character to take that role. But let's be real here, would you really like that if you played KH3 for the first time where that was the thing? Because I highly doubt anyone here would actually like that idea.

[King Arthur13 51]

I would like to see marluxia in a role that fits his character

marluxia was activley going against the organization in KH: COM

[Otti#8624 26]

Which is completely fair, but replacing him with a blank replika does not sound like a good idea either

[King Arthur13 51]

I didnt say I wanted blank characters, I said I wanted them to be possessed

Heres how you do that, you show the characters have free will when Xehanort gives it to them, but takes it away when they start to show resistance

[2 quid is good 2,209]

For the first time

I dont side with either of you

[King Arthur13 51]

dun dun duuuuuuuuun

[Otti#8624 26]

You wanted them to be possessed by Xehanort. It's not that different from a blank one as that would just be him but weaker

Either way, this discussion is gonna go nowhere so I will just stop here

[King Arthur13 51]

No wait

It could show how Xehanort thinks of them as simple stepping stones

He orders them to serve him out of their own free will but knows that they cant refuse

that would add more weight to the idea these people are not just doing this "because" but actually give significance to being "norted"

[Icecl Keyheart 13]

i think it's prettt clear the new organization was heading in the complete different direction in 3D with xemnas speech and other lil things

[King Arthur13 51]

I mean if Sora wouldve just got yellow eyes in KHDDD then what was the threat of him being norted, hed still be sora and likely still qualify for the guardians of light

I agree @Icecl Keyheart it felt like it wasnt the same as the old organization, that it would be made up of people under xehanorts control, not just people who had yellow eyes and nothing else

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

He’s probably feel more compelled to do all of this

As Saix put it, or.. at least how I remember it, he felt he had to do this

Something to that effect

[Icecl Keyheart 13]

and the Isa scene in 3d where nort made him attack Lea

[King Arthur13 51]

Yeah he doesnt even speak

it makes you think hes not there

especially because I am pretty sure Xehanort looked at him before he jumped

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

I’m pretty sure the somber expression on his face said otherwise

[Icecl Keyheart 13]

it seems more like a thing where he could control them at a moment's notice

[King Arthur13 51]

yeah

way more interesting than what we got

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

I think it was more he was being ordered, guys.. Nothing else

[King Arthur13 51]

YEAH HE DID

He smiled and then Saix attacked

[Amaterasu_1549906707 19]

Probably reluctantly yeah

[King Arthur13 51]

he moves his eyes slightly to where saix is sitting
