Zettas 2 Posted June 16, 2020 Its honestly kinda shocking that Kingdom Hearts hasn't had a rhythm game before now. Im excited but regardless of how you feel, I think we can all agree it was long over due at this point 1 Jingilator reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Movies798 1,358 Posted June 16, 2020 I finally got a Kingdom Hearts game that tells more about Kairi's origins, but it turns out to be a freaking rhythm game? So disappointed. But since the game's story is after Kingdom Hearts 3 I'm going to play it and see where it goes, and where they taking Kairi's character. 1 2 quid is good reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Melody of Memory is the game in-between both the Xehanort Saga and the next Saga. I think it will set up Kairi's story for the next mainline entry that will start off the next Saga, hopefully. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Allwil13 754 Posted June 16, 2020 A rhythm game? Awwwww! Oh, well. I guess it was only a matter of time before I skipped an entry. Hope everyone else enjoys it, though. I will say though that the Kairi section of the trailer looks super intriguing! I'll be keeping an eye on that for sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still holding on to the hope that we'll get a playable HD port of 358/2 Days and Re:coded one day in a Switch port of the Xehanort Saga. i am also kinda excited for this rhythm game though, but the music concept makes it way more of a filler game than any of the other in-between games lol. the story element seems like a desperate attempt to make this game core in the series ?

Door_to_Light_95 11 Posted June 17, 2020 I can understand this being a little different and disappointing to some, but personally I am very excited for this. I loved the Final Fantasy Theatrhythm games, and this being a Kingdom Hearts version of that with a bit more to it is great to me! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WakelessDream 2,278 Posted June 17, 2020 Even without the story bit at the end of it I'm pretty excited for this! Always wanted a Theatrhythm-esque game and I know there have been discussions here over the years regarding the want for one. Also the Sora, Donald and Goofy character sprites are adorbs Although I don't own a Nintendo Switch, it's also nice that it's getting some love now too.

The more I look at it, the more the gameplay is growing on me. I think this will be really fun to play even if it doesn't look like much initially. I am also super happy to see more Kairi lore/development! 1 WakelessDream reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SweetYetSalty 330 Posted June 18, 2020 I was torn on this but now I'm onboard with rhythm stuff. Could be lots of fun, even if have to do several different Ursula's Revenges lol. Plus Kairi stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2 quid is good 2,209 Posted June 19, 2020 I love rhythm games and I really enjoyed the small amount of theatrhythm I played, but this just really disappoints me. It's one thing to add lore to a rhythm game, but IMPORTANT lore? Like, Re:coded just told us that we would be saving TAV, which DDD also told us so I'm not too fussed about it. It's a great side game because it explores another part of KH and isn't too worried about extreme connectivity. But this just bites. I don't wanna keep having to deal with big important lore being put in the weirdest of places. At least we get a rhythm game though.... and I hope it's at least a little like theatrhythm with the use of battle/field/event music. And did we really need KH1 Sora back again 1 Movies798 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
