Do you hate the 2D models?

Recommended Posts

To be honest, Kingdom Hearts is one of the minor games who still use 2D emotes in cutscenes or gameplay.

It didnt' actually bother me in the first games, but in BBS was so weird. Ventu's 2D face made him look like a fish and the hands were glued lik they are on The Sims... lol!

 

-.-

 

As 2D I mean the "blah-blah" faces and glued hands!! -.-

I know what you are saying. Like when their faces look like they were drawn on a piece of paper then glued on their heads. When the faces are not animated and only the mouth is moving. I don't we will see that in KH3. And it's becoming in KH games. KhBBSFM had more animated faces. 1.5 has more animated faces too!

Are you talking about animated vs. pre-rendered expressions?  I would assume they're used so much in BBS (And 3D) to save memory since its a handheld.  Separately animating all the bones for one use takes up more memory than static, pre-made expressions used multiple times.  Most of the time they only use the stock expressions and stuff for scenes that aren't vital to express complex expressions in the story (3D seemed to have more animating, iirc), non-closeups, and quick flashes to the face where it doesn't look out of place. Also:  I also vote that Saix has a more terrifying fish-face than Ventus. Especially when it ruins the mood

I understand what you mean. It actually never bothered me until someone pointed it out... Now I find it a little annoying too.

I think what he is claiming is that their faces are painted on instead of having 3D their faces being treated like 3D models. Honestly I haven't looked close enough to tell. The only game I really noticed anything close to that was in the first kingdom hearts. And if he actually meant 2D faces,  my next guess would be for the HP gauges, which I like. Either way I shall say I liked the 2D art in COM. (even though that isn't what this is about)
