sora473 36 Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) why do most of the kingdom hearts games only go to level 99? In kingdome hearts 1 it gos to level 100 but after that they stoped and only went to level 99. Why is this and do you rhink it will be this way for 2.8 and 3?

I thought all of the KH games go up to 100? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caity 3,946 Posted November 19, 2015 I would assume it's something to do with the programming, like to avoid having the 3 digits available in memory when there's only one value that's ever there (100, like you don't get to 101) or cut off overflow. It does that? I thought all of the KH games go up to 100? I don't know the exact ones but some do only go to 100 some only 99. 1 MythrilMagician reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingdomHearts3 2,591 Posted November 19, 2015 (Finally, a new topic for HD2.8) Probably. I guess it's how they program the titles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VisitJoan 2,713 Posted November 19, 2015 Do people even level up to that high? 1 sora473 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xiro 3,468 Posted November 19, 2015 In KH1 and Days you can go up to Lv. 100. KH2, re:coded and DDD only go up to 99. If I remember correctly, CoM and BBS also only go up to 99, but I never bothered going that high in CoM and I haven't finished BBS so yeah. Do people even level up to that high? ... Sometimes.

JBone 30 Posted November 20, 2015 (edited) Well the first KH tried it to be cool and different from Final Fantasy. But I guess they decided people like lvl 99 because that's the max level in FF. (The ones I've played at least) ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Edited November 20, 2015 by JBone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted November 20, 2015 I've always found this odd as well! I really don't know why Square decided to cap off the level limit to 99 instead of leaving it at 100, but hey, I guess that's just one of those mysteries left in the air, ya know? It'd be cool if for Kingdom Hearts III, we'd be able to reach level 100! 1 sora473 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MythrilMagician 6,963 Posted November 20, 2015 Caity seems to have the most logical and explainable answer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VisitJoan 2,713 Posted November 20, 2015 before going to fight the final boss in any kingdom hearts game I always level up to 99 Props to you. If I attempted that, I'd never finish the game. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sora473 36 Posted November 20, 2015 Props to you. If I attempted that, I'd never finish the game. it takes longer then you think it took me about 3 weeks to beat the 2.5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cyber Shaman 990 Posted November 21, 2015 Because Square learned their lesson after setting the level cap in Star Ocean 3 to 225. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
