I think KH Might Become Stale

Recommended Posts

Erm...I don't know how I feel about it.  On one hand, I totally dig not having to wait two or three years just to get my hands on the next installment...on the other hand, the fact that we are guaranteed a new KH game once each year kind of cheapens the experience, you know?  There's something so rewarding about finally getting something you've been waiting so long for, which happened when we got KH2 and Re:CoM in the States.  Now it's just kind of like, "Oh, another KH game, cool..." instead of "FINALLY IT'S HERE, I'VE AWAITED THIS FOR TWO+ YEARS!!!!"  Haha IDK if I'm making any sense here.

 

But yeah.  There you go.

I have a similar worry.... If you havent seen "How to bring back The old Disney in a new  way", go see that.

In the video he makes a point of saying that Disney isnt taking enough interest, (that's the only word I can think of right now) In the KH series. Especially with that new Disney game coming out- I forget the name, Disney Universe or something- Disney is trying too hard. KH is so obviously the best option. Im just afraid that KH will never get the praise it deserves...

As long as Normua-san is directing the KH series i don't think it will become stale. Maybe after KH3, but not right now. The games have never been rushed out. Multiple teams have worked on the KH series overseen by Normua-san, including Jupiter (CoM), h.a.n.d (days & coded), former Osaka team (BBS & 3D) while the main team (KH & KH2) have been busy with the XIII saga/versus. Normua-san has said before he's testing different ideas out on the portable title, so he can make KH3 the way he wants. A game every year not to mention on a different system most times does still take it toll on the series. Square is milking the franchise with games like KH for PC browsers.  I think if they release the HD remakes then KH3 the series will be solid.

Could've said the same thing about Sonic games nowadays especially the modern ones get stale really fast(Sonic Generations was good but lacks challenge),but anyway I'll save that for another day.

 

For me KH never got stale for me since I have alot of games to play until the next entry in the series,the only thing that got stale for me is the overabundance of Keyblade Wielders.

 

However if there is a franchise that is truly got stale it has to be Final Fantasy

Sonic has been stale for a while, but they haven't given up on him and even made a very good racing game with Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed.

Just wait till square makes a KH MMO then there will be an "overabundance" of Keyblade Wielders.

Very true, FF All The Bravest

Kingdom Hearts is already becoming stale. Several games are just repeats of the first with minor exceptions to the story, while the newest installment is just lacking in most departments, the most notable being story.

^ this! sum up my feelings lol although the key difference between KH and Sonic is that KH follows (pretty much) one story, whereas the plot in Sonic games are inconsistent and therefore don't need to match up from game to game. If KH started doing this, I may just drop the franchise myself!

I'm definitely tired of all the enemies being associated with Darkness, and a Light-based threat has long been overdue.

 

So much for Balance and anti-absolutes....

Hopefully there is one after the Xehanort Saga ends.

I understand where you're coming from, and I've partly wondered that myself.  Sometimes holding back and producing only three installments in a series is better than throwing out ten (alright, KH hasn't done that yet--but you know what I mean).  I just think that if Kingdom Hearts becomes too available there'll be less people anxious for new games to come out.  It'll seem too ordinary, not to mention commercial and mass-produced.  I loved the first few installments to the series, but the last two...  Well, let's just say I highly questioned them.

 

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the series; I'm just concerned about its future if it keeps going at this rate.
