Stickman Sham 0 Posted November 3, 2015 Anyone phone-streaming like last time? If they show a trailer and don't upload one later I'm gonna die inside Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaxovanHearts 452 Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) Anyone phone-streaming like last time? If they show a trailer and don't upload one later I'm gonna die inside they've always released the D23 KH footage. No worries. The only time KH3 footage wasn't released was the one from the 2.5 launch event in CA.However I don't expect it to be instantaneous. I hope it will but it'll probably be 1-2 days Edited November 3, 2015 by DaxovanHearts 2 Stickman Sham and Exiblade7 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hero of Light XIV 2,381 Posted November 3, 2015 I could have sworn somebody said that coverage WAS allowed in there. Oh well, still not a surprise. Hopefully they make the trailers they show public sooner than a day or two after posting them. I really hope all of my burning questions get answered these next few days.

Isamu Kuno 2,512 Posted November 3, 2015 that was the 2.5 eventBut the footage was KH3 and it was in Japan, not CA. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exodaze 491 Posted November 3, 2015 I wish they would announce the estimated length of gameplay for the fragmentary passage. I know they said typical one world length but it is still good to hear the amount of hrs. 30 MINUTES BEFORE IT OPENSS!!!! Can't wait for more photos!! 1 janicepibc70 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
