    let's just say i don't rely on party members to bail me out
  2. Headphone Jack
    it's coming back as DLC

    i guess the problem is that the AI party members can't be so good that they make every fight a breeze. because the combat is in real time it's probably trickier to program them to be useful but not too useful, whereas in a typical turn based JRPG you can either control every party member or the AI controls them and has a limited set of moves. at the very least, the AI partners in the KH games don't really get in your way and hinder your abilities. They're just there.

    "To infinity and beyond" would probably be a good one to throw in

    welcome to KH13! imo the series already takes itself too seriously. this is a series where the main antagonist uses times travel to collection multiple versions of himself in order to form an evil group of 13 to fight 7 other people to gain access to a vaguely defined entity known as Kingdom Hearts. i just replayed KH Re:CoM and there were a couple moments where the writing displayed some self-awareness and more of that would do wonders for the series. There's a bit where Sora is going on and on to Namine about why she shouldn't cry and how if she cries that means he'll be breaking him promise. It feels very "JRPG-ish" and then suddeny Donald just calls him out on it by rolling his eyes and saying "That's a bit much, isn't it?" more of that would be great because there are some times when the series takes itself too seriously and it's just not working. i mean the plot is pretty ridiculous so it wouldn't hurt if the games kept a more lighthearted vibe and occasionally poked fun at themselves more often.

    won't stop fans getting their hopes up but oh well lol

    i'm assuming you're paraphrasing a line like "We can put someone else on Keyblade duty" or something. in that case she's most likely talking about Roxas since at this point in the series' history Roxas had been written into the narrative. i don't think Xion was written into the story until after KH2.

    because Vanitas is evil and i think most of the evil characters in this series have yellow/orange eyes. blue is usually associated with "Good" in this series.

    KH2FM for sure. that combat is fun as hell and when you really push it to the limit in a critical mode level 1 run you get to see it shine. i recently replayed KH1 and i would describe it as clunky, but manageable. it's not terrible but some of the enemies just become a chore to fight because Sora's movement isn't very fluid. when you miss an attack, the recovery time feels long. Re:CoM isn't all that bad either if you really get into the specifics with it and organizing Keyblade cards to deal the most strike, thrust and finisher damage in a combo.

    infinite edge i watched the trailer and he reminded a lot of a fan-made Sonic villain.
  11. Headphone Jack
    i was thinking "nah that's a bit out there for a KH game" but then you reminded me of the tea-cup attraction flow and suddenly it does sound a little bit more believable.

    it'll be dark, relative to what we've seen in the series, which isn't that dark at all. maybe "dark" is a translation error and Nomura actually said, "There are so many characters, so the story is confusing." (laughs)

    they definitely need to bring back Kairi's original VA along with Namine's and then just find someone else for Xion because Alyson Stoner in 358/2 Days sounded so bored. Willa Holland is OK and maybe find someone else for Terra or get Jason Dohring a better voice director to help him emote. I mean when he gets angry it's good i guess but everything else just sounds off. Riku's VA got lucky in that his voice is never changing so he's good lol haven't heard Sora in 0.2 but if it's like DDD he's gotta tone it down. they ought to let him channel some Vanitas into his Sora voice so it doesn't sound like HJO is trying too hard to sound like a 14 year old Sora. just do a Vanitas voice but friendly and we'll be good.

    so then what are Maleficent and Pete even doing in this game? it sounds like they're just in the background looking for a box while the actual story is happening. it'd be cool if Xehanort had comprised the 13 Darknesses of himself and other Disney villains but oh well. i guess Maleficent will be a joke villain in this game too. of course the second she enlisted Pete as her right hand man it was obvious she wasn't threatening anymore lol

    i don't think there's ever a rhyme or reason to the last Disney world in a KH game. at least up til now. previous games have given you a decent selection at the start for you to go through in whichever order and whatever world is last usually means nothing. with KH3, if the plots of the worlds are tied to the overall story then that may change. for right now though idk and i don't think it matters.
  16. Headphone Jack
    well if hearing KH3 would have less worlds was enough to take the wind out of your sails maybe you were never that hyped to begin with. i mean the game has other things to offer and what's so bad about having Disney worlds that are much more fine tuned? sure we got a lot of worlds in previous numbered installments but honestly they weren't all that amazing. they're very shallow and empty. it's like you're watching a poor recreation of the Disney movies rather than actually experiencing them or diving into their worlds. at least with KH3 it looks like we may finally get Disney worlds that are fully realized, and if having less worlds helps that along then so be it. we don't even know the actual amount either so don't jump ship so soon.
  17. Headphone Jack
    again, if it means we get a tighter experience in the worlds in terms of gameplay and story that's fine with me. KH2 had a problem with the second visits to each world, and while i didn't mind it, you could tell each second visit felt like a bit of a stretch. storywise it made sense because Sora and co. were now going around looking for the Organization but that probably should have been the original reason for visiting worlds in the first place. still, i think this will turn out to be for the best. it's good they aren't trying to stretch themselves so thin. hopefully the unique aspects of each world don't boil down to bad gimmicks though. i'd totally settle for just larger and more detailed maps to traverse and explore as opposed to little gameplay gimmicks.
  18. Headphone Jack
    that's good. i'll keep my expectations tailored though just in case, but if the game makes it out to a 2018 release then i'll be impressed.
  19. Headphone Jack
    at first the idea of less Disney worlds in KH3 was concerning but if it means we get a tighter experience from the story and gameplay then sure thing. i'm hoping all the worlds have something to contribute to the plot and won't just be the usual obligatory Disney world we have to run through to progress.
  20. Headphone Jack
    yes he's back and looking like a bug or something! i mean there's definitely something off about his face right? i feel like it's the eyes...
  21. Headphone Jack
    hmm well if they're going to reveal every world i wonder if i should go on media blackout. i don't think i've ever gone into a KH game blind except for KH1 and 2 and that was only because i was too young to be aware of the internet and what sort of information i could get from it. might be fun to go in blind to KH3 but if the worlds get spoiled it won't be a big deal. it'll probably just get me more excited. also i hope any DLC they add is something small. i would think it'd be too tricky to add in an entire extra world to the game when the worlds are usually tied into the plot in some way and adding new ones could impact the pacing of the game. cosmetic stuff seems to be the more likely option.
  22. Headphone Jack
    i hope they keep the trailers vague. i remember DDD getting two huge 8 minute trailers that didn't really leave much to the imagination. maybe i'll just go on media blackout for KH3 once an actual release date comes out.
  23. Headphone Jack
    yea but i mean she mostly sat on the sidelines in CoM and only started interacting with Sora and co. towards the end. i'm not saying she didn't have a major role but it felt passive.
  24. Headphone Jack
    i'm holding out hope for a Pirates of the Caribbean world with a crazy boss fight against Davy Jones and the Kraken, personally. the spectacle alone would be worth it.
  25. Headphone Jack
    basically everyone who is on the good side will return so don't worry. it'll be interesting to see if she's given a bigger role than previous games. she mostly sits on the sidelines so i wonder what she could do. would it even be possible to bring her back in her original state? i thought she was created in a rare situation where Sora released both his and Kairi's heart. if they released Kairi's heart wouldn't that make a different Nobody, or just one who couldn't control Sora's memories?
