KH General Chat

[Sam N 10]

I usually just tell people “Buy All in One and just follow the order of the menu”

[J u i c e 1]

Yeah it’s not hard, at least not anymore

That’s basically what I did. I got into the series right after 3 came out. All the hype surrounding the release got me intrigued so I got the HD collections in a bundle (All in One wasn’t a thing yet) and marathoned the whole series

[Sam N 10]

My other common advice is “Skip Days and COM if you’re not feeling up to it. They’re not super important.”

Besides, Days comes in movie format on the compilation discs.

[J u i c e 1]

Watching cutscenes is a better substitute than reading/watching a summary

[Snakeskin94 13]

Starting with KH2 I think we can all agree, and maybe BBS are THE exceptions lol

Otherwise, just go release order

Don't be a bitch 😤

[J u i c e 1]

It’s not torture, like the games are fun lol

[Sam N 10]

KH2 and BBS are major plot points. Starting with then is acceptable.

[Snakeskin94 13]

KH2 explains part 1 well. And com well, Sora doesn't even remember so it's fine lol

And before Chi BBS was the prequel, so, it was fine. Still works as a good starting point imo

But otherwise

Just go release order

Don't be a coward 😤

[Sam N 10]

I attempted to start with COM and had no clue what was going on. Mistakes were made lol.

[Snakeskin94 13]

I can imagine

[Sam N 10]

Buuut gba was all i had at the time soooo…

Uh thank Christ KH is so accessible now

[Snakeskin94 13]

Yeah isn't it nice when a series of games by a major Japaneae publisher are easy to access, allowing players new and old to easily find/discover, or go back to with minimal trouble?

glares direct eye contact at Atlus

Atlus: "What? You guys don't want more flavor-of-the-month spinoffs? Huh? What the hell is an...Innocent Sin?"

[Snakeskin94 13]

Kara that made me want to scream.

[Sam N 10]

Atlus: “We’re going to release only one specific version of P3 despite the others having drastically varying content”

[Snakeskin94 13]

Just port me the old games motherfiretruckers STOP GIVING ME DANCING GAMES

don't even get me started on PQ...

[gunslingerkaras 0]

Mm, Portable's actually my favorite version of 3, despite being minimalized because PSP.

[Sam N 10]

Guys

[gunslingerkaras 0]

Point is, KH is extremely accessible now, and on multiple platforms.

It even made the jump to PC.

And I think that's a beautiful thing.

More people should be able to experience it.

[Sam N 10]

And reasonably priced to boot!

[Altaninort 0]

well

except 2.8

[J u i c e 1]

If you’re buying the collections individually I’d always recommend starting with just 1.5+2.5. If after completing every game in the collection you then want to go play 2.8, you’re probably so hooked already that you won’t care about the price

I guess since Valentine’s Day is a month away, guess I’ll just pull off my top 7 favorite couples of the Kingdom Hearts series. You can all disagree with me whatever you want

7. Marluxia/Lauriam x Larxene/Elrena
6. Axel/Lea x Saïx/Isa
5. Terra x Aqua
4. Ventus x Strelitzia
3. Riku (or Repliku) x Naminé
2. Sora x Kairi
1. Roxas x Xion

[Sam N 10]

I agree with 6, 5, and 1. The others are odd but not exactly bad. Riku and Namine i just can’t see. There isn’t a lot of chemistry between them.
