KH3 already has its focus split between way too many characters

and having all of these super powerful characters on the side of the heroes significantly reduces the tension,unless they're all brought down easily, at which point bringing them into the story is pretty lame, as they only exist to make Xehanort look stronger

 That's a fairly weak argument considering a main theme in this series is the power of friendship and that includes them gathering and working together for a common cause thus the scene in DDD showing a large group gathering behind Sora. How can there be too many people helping in a case like this? That's just silly to say considering the ramifications.

• How is putting them into the story make them lame? They're already part of it, seeing that they have been revived in Radian Garden. They've been a part of the story since Birth By Sleep.
• How do they make Xehanort look stronger if they are most likely NOT going to be on his side?

I'm sorry, but I don't really think that this was a good reason behind your thought and opinion.

I don't care if that's the theme. There are already plenty of friends to go around. The game is already splitting its focus between Sora, Riku, Kairi, Xion, Roxas, Lea, Mickey, Donald, Goofy, THIRTEEN XEHANORTS. Also more worlds than KH2. There are so many other plot threads to conclude, too, adding new ones by trying to integrate the ten or so remaining Org members... it's just too much. Just the fact that KH3 is focusing on a fight involving twenty people makes me worried about how impersonal it could be, adding another ten, never mind the expanded cast with people like the Hollow Bastion Committee.

I imagine they're going to have some relevance to the plot, they've alreayd established a plot point about some of the members being in a coma of sorts. But helping the other heroes? Being important to the plot? No thanks

Just make them show up as backgound ghosts when Sora says he friends are his power, if you must, but please don't bloat KH3 more than it already is

I.. what no. Did you read my post?

It'd be lame if they were put in only to be defeated by Xehanort, because then their only purpose would be to make Xehanort look stronger

Calling them "part of the story" is pretty charitable, considering they were cameos at best

I just hope that Demyx, Larxene and the other somebodies who we didn't get to see in Birth by Sleep make some sort of appearance even if its only for a small part of the game c:

That doesn't matter one bit when they are already involved and established characters. And nobody said that their involvement had to be a deep, drawn out one.  It just makes more than enough sense that they would want to help stop Xehanort in some capacity considering the impending consequences if they don't.

Hatok have you never witnessed former enemies teaming up with the Heroes to take down the bigger enemy in video games or on other media? The "the enemy of my enemy is my friend"schitck? Heck this even happened in KH2 when Maleficent helped Sora and co fight off the bigger enemy: the original Org 13. Well believe it or not, that's what's most likely to happen with the former Org members when they get the scoop on Xehanort's inventions from Lea. KH3D made this obvious

Saying that ORGXIII involvement shouldn't be in KH3 because there is already enough going on isn't a good arguement. Especially considering the complex story line of Kingdom Hearts that Nomura likes and clearly the players enjoy too. I for one love the complexity and all of the story threads of the series and hope KH3 thickens the plot even more. If anything I consider it another goal of the game. Anyone can get 100% completion, but I also prefer the unspoken category of "I fully understand this complex story". So the more characters to follow the better. And it's not like these are new characters. They are already established and fans have said they want to know more aboiut them.

Well, Lumiara (Marluxia's somebody) would have a huge grudge against Xemnas, well, because it's evident that he hates him so all the more power to him.

The former Org XIII consisted of a lot of great and unique characters. People love them, and it would be a shame if they weren't incorporated in KH3.

I would like to see the original versions of Marluxia, Larxene, Luxord, and Demyx. Despite Marluxia and Larxene being the main antagonists, i think they can be quite interesting as good guys or at least supportive role.
