KH1 You Awaken

[Zola 3,038]

So how did you guys choose the first time you played through?

 

I chose the shield, and gave up the staff. ^-^

[Blake 776]

First time, I got the staff, because it looked cool and got rid of shield because foque defense.

[Jilly Shears 2,144]

The best offense is the best defense.

 

Also because I never really used magic, so the staff's kind of useless to me.

[hatok 6,413]

I always choose sword and give up the staff... but I really SHOULD be choosing the shield, because it sucks to go so long without having guard...

[HarLea Quinn 26,501]

I always give up the staff because you will get magic anyways and the sword is better for offense imo

[Rob 5,571]

Swords are for badasses.

[VisitJoan 2,713]

I chose the shield and gave up the staff.

[WakelessDream 2,286]

I always choose the sword and give up the shield/power of the guardian lol.

[Gambler'sApprentice 131]

Sword for Staff, magics a pain in the arse.

[Speed 37]

I chose the shield because I wanted to get Guard as soon as I could. I gave up the staff because it wouldn't stop me from getting the spells anyway.

[xoblivionx13 1,133]

I choose the sword and gave up the staff....I'dunno why, I just like the sword better....and I get magic anyway later in the game, so I'm sort of killing 2 birds with one stone (I'll revive the birds later with my magic powers)

[Caity 3,946]

I got the staff cause I thought I could then attack from a distance (and so wouldn't lose all my health in once)

And gave up the shield, since I thought although I favor magic strength probably is important too

I wish I knew which set your difficulty settings.

[Weiss 8,279]

Magic was my first choice. Magic in Kh1 was just too overpowered to not have IMO. Plus you get good abilities early in the final mix.

I then chose defense for ...defense.

I gave up attack since magic would suffice as a means of killing enemies.

[Weedanort 8,786]

Chose the sword, and gave up the staff.

 

POWER!

[Dave 5,715]

I always go for defence. Better to be able to take a beating over a long period of time than to have a great offense and die in one hit.

 

I would have chosen magic if it was implimented a bit better in the game.

[Columned-Munny 274]

I chose the sword and give up the shield. Even on the harder difficulty I don't miss the extra defense.

[deathrebirthsenshi 279]

The first time, I knew nothing about how it would affect anything; I chose the staff because I love magic, and I gave up the sword because it sounded dangerous. I thought there was some morality thing going on (I mean, it says its a weapon of great strength yet destruction or something like that...). And magic is pretty awesome in kh1...until the keyhole's opened and all heartless get a boost, then magic is kind of useless except for cure, aero, and gravity.

 

The second time around on critical, I chose the shield because that's what I thought Sora would choose (I'm sentimental about that stuff) but also because defense rocks. And I gave up the sword, 'cause most of those abilities aren't that fantastic. I didn't even realize you got guard earlier, but I am really glad you do. I started playing a second time in expert mode after coming from BBS, so I was still thinking I could cartwheel and barrier like Aqua...at least I could basic block. My brother chose the sword, and was struggling without it.

[_The Door To Light_ 1,507]

I've always picked the sword and gave up the staff.

 

Never have I been a magic type of person. :I

[mikethegamer 53]

I always picked the sword and gave up the magic because I only used magic when I needed to heal myself.

[Thepyrowall 1]

The little kid me saw a sword and instantly decided. How foolish I was to think I would use anything besides a big key to fight.

[Shera Wizard 2,736]

1 - 1

2 - 2

3 - 3

[Roxas Seeking Light 93]

Shield first, Sword next, and give up Mage.

[KINGDOMxHEARTSz 54]

What did you take and give up in Dive to the Heart ? I took the sword and I sometimes gave up the shield

[HarLea Quinn 26,501]

I took the sword and gave up the staff bc you would get magic anyways later on  

[Xalaru 445]

I always take the sword and give up the staff. Always.
