Sora96 17,256 Posted July 16, 2013 Honestly, why does Kingdom Hearts have to continue past Kingdom Hearts III? People will get bored with the series. Having the HD remasters released ahead of KH3 is a fantastic move, and I can't wait for them. But honestly if the series ended with the HD ReMIXes and KH3 I'd be happy. The series should have the right ending. What honestly what are they going to do after KH3? I don't want to see the KH series lose it's magic with KH4 or KH5. It's not like Final Fantasy which has a separate world/story for every number. The countless side stories have hurt it's reputation enough, now with the HD ReMIXes and KH3's announcement the magic is as strong as it has been since KH2FM. But is a KH4 worth the risk? Tetsuya Nomura said it himself, he never thought it would last ten years. So why must it last twenty+? 11 KH4Real, Oli, Hazimie and 8 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zoro317 111 Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) I agree. I fear it may lose its appeal after a certain length of time, especially if they run out of interesting Disney worlds to utilize. It should conclude with the Xehanort Saga and keep itself contained to one unique and compelling story. :mellow: Edited July 16, 2013 by Lordrogersmith6485 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the system are almost the same but with different storylines imo,so yeah,we don't know what will happen after that.....

Because Square Enix is greedy, and they will milk KH like they have been doing with Final Fantasy for 26 years. Hopefully KH will last only one more saga after KH3, and then it'll be over for good.

XxCobaltxX 321 Posted July 16, 2013 I really do love the KH series and i kinda do want the story to end in 3 and i kinda don't, but with a kh4 that maybe had a new story and characters, they could also have new mechanics, kind of like a sandbox maybe, or a more final fantasy type, i just want to see some experimentation if the series continues after 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MythrilMagician 6,963 Posted July 16, 2013 If they do make another saga after the current one, I cannot see a antagonist better than Xehanort. I find he is a good enough antagonist to start and end the KH franchise. He is patient, smart and very powerful. But we will have to see how KHIII ends before we can say: "No more Kingdom Hearts after this" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lostmemory123 1,056 Posted July 16, 2013 I honestly like to see what they do with KH after this saga,I still think there is enough worlds and enough potential to make something really good.Id like to see a new story,new characters,and explore new worlds that they havent done yet.I still see potential for this series,it may not be as good as this saga,but at the same time it may also be better,Id just like to see what happens after this saga Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taeyeon 1,137 Posted July 16, 2013 I hope after KH3...They won't make another KH game for about 20 years unless they make a side story for the Vita. Maybe something different for the next generations of gamers...I dunno for KH4. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FireRubies1 1,325 Posted July 16, 2013 I kinda agree.... I don't really feel the need for KH to continue past III. I mean if they can come up with another cool story, that's great, but I don't really know how I feel about the current KH universe The characters are kinda done developing so it might not be as... special? I'm guessing they can always add in more characters, but that sounds unnecessary and kinda weird aswell. Maybe they can manage to do more development for the characters (such as the BBS trio, Kairi, maybe incorporate more Squeenix people) and I'm kinda worried that since they're expecting it to be another franchise they would go with a more chronological approach... and that would suck the fun out of it imo. Finding things out from the more minor games was amusing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Riku 2,063 Posted July 16, 2013 It is very possible Nomura has other ideas for the KH universe he'd like to do, but can't with what he has right now. If he wants to continue, he has every right to do so, and you don't even need to play after KH3. Just be open to another saga, or just don't play it. Just because you don't want it doesn't mean no one else does, and that Nomura shouldn't have a chance to create what he wanted. 6 MyDixieRect, Queen Tery, Enmaa and 3 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Queen Tery 4,591 Posted July 16, 2013 I personally love long lasting series. It's like watching a long relationship play out. It's fun to see a story grow. The story will OBVIOUSLY end one day, why not get the most out of it? 4 lostmemory123, King Riku, PillowHead and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A mystery 346 Posted July 16, 2013 As long as Kingdom Hearts III ends good I think I would be happy with the series ending there. I wouldn't want Kingdom Hearts to become one of those series that just keeps on going to make a profit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

143436611Xxcc 1,105 Posted July 16, 2013 I think it should end at KH3... and maybe Square can focus on TWEWY or a new game for once. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col.Random 3,683 Posted July 16, 2013 I agree, most good stories that go on too long like Supernatural or Pokemon eventually become less interesting and pointless. It would be best to end it at kh3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NO_HEART_XIII 312 Posted July 16, 2013 I made a post like this awhile back. I wish KH3 would be the end & let KH go down in video gaming history, but square doesn't know how to end anything. FF is up to its 13th story, and there is already plans for 14 & 15, and how many freaking side games are there!? A ton. I guess I don't mind if they go a little further with KH, but I hope they don't milk it like they do with FF. I want to live to see the end of my favorite story of all time. I hope KH3 is the end, but I doubt it will be...have to make as much money as possible... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PillowHead 569 Posted July 16, 2013 Well, another important point to add to this discussion is that, let's face it, we're getting older, really think about how old the series is. KH3 represents the end of the Xehanort Saga, which, for us, will always be the true Kingdom Hearts, but that doesn't mean there won't be generations following ours that will feel the same way. There are more stories to be written for Kingdom Hearts, and there's plenty more potential candidates to enjoy those stories, including us, if we so desire, or excluding us, if that happens to be the case. 1 HarLea Quinn reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted July 16, 2013 Some of these "side stories" are more important than KH2. How do you think that? The most important entries in the series so far are Kingdom Hearts & Kingdom Hearts II. Than Birth by Sleep, Kingdom Hearts 3D and Chain of Memories and then 358/2 Days & Re:coded.

I think KH3D was slightly more important than Kingdom Hearts II because, well, it told us that most of the stuff that we learned in KH2 was just a sham. 1 xemnasbane reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tigerruss 576 Posted July 16, 2013 I want to see where the series goes after 3. Though at this very moment I truly want Sora's story to end with KH III and us getting a new protagonist. Not because I dislike Sora, but because I feel that the character should be able to get a rest. I don't know why, but even with all this set up I can't think of KH III as an end for the entire series. I know KH III hasn't came out yet, but to me it feels like there is something missing, another tale that needs to be told. 1 xemnasbane reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tothecikpah 230 Posted July 16, 2013 i think there's a lot to reveal after kh3..something like what happen between bbs and kh1 etc..they might not reveal it on kh3 intead there is another story which leads to another chronicle/arc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
