There's personally only one thing I want. The main story, with just Sora, and Donald & Goofy as party members. And an unlockable Xehanort Story which is much shorter, but told from the perspective of Xehanort (it doesn't necessarily have to take place during Sora's story, it can also be stuff he's doing behind the scenes in the earlier games being explained more in depth), where you play as Young Xehanort time traveling and picking the vessels up, and also Ansem SoD, Xemnas and possibly Saix. I just think Xehanort's so much more than a complete monster villain, I think he just wants to prove he's right and he actually thinks he's right, and he got so consumed in it that it became an obsession. I think he literally can't comprehend why everyone opposes his ''liberal'' cause. And considers the good part ''bigots'' or whatever. I would actually make a fangame about Xehanort like that once I'm better with RPG Maker, Game Maker: Studio or whatever etc That, or add a multiplayer ala Mission Mode except it actually works and would be much cooler, where you can play Sora, Donald and Goofy and a few of the main Xehanorts, and possibly Roxas and Xion

13 Seekers of Darkness (including MX, and comments on WHY I think Nomura should pick them): 1) MX 2) Xemnas 3) Ansem SoD 4) YMX 5) Saix 6) Xigbar 7) Luxord (the dices in the trailer + I never trusted that SOAB) 8) Marluxia (traitor? Yeah. But the fact he can set up such a devious scheme actually shows he can be evil and Xehanort would want that, plus he's pretty powerful) 9) Demyx (SILENCE TRAITOR. Yeah why did that have so much of a Xehanort vibe to me? Also he's really OP which Xehanort can impossibly overlook) 10) Vanitas (Speaks for itself) 11) Terranort (why let Terra go after all of that, plus Terranort was kinda Xehanort at his prime so to say) 12) Apprentice Xehanort (we need a Scientist dude to test out the ideas and theories and possibly do mad experiments. also AX is really intelligent and judging by DDD's opening he faked his memory loss all the time. I guess anyone who calls him boring is pretty much underestimating him) 13) Sora (why let him go after all this. The more pure something is the more statisfying it is to corrupt to Xehanort afaik. Could make an interesting Sora, Donald and Goofy angst arc too) 7 Lights (with comments) 1) Sora (But ofc Xehanort fails after Donald & Goofy tell him to get up and face his darkness, and he epicly triumphs and he has been the silver Light piece all along, cause destiny has already been written after all) 2) Riku 3) Roxas 4) Xion (I may be biased but I love her too much and she deserves a happy ending. preferably in Roxas's bed shhh 5) Ventus 6) Aqua 7) Mickey

I dont mind the lip syncing much but yeah you'd think they would update the derp faces and hands right? Makes me wonder if it's really meant to make fans happy or just fund KH3 and/or keep us busy. Ooh I forgot... I really hate how Days and Coded aren't playable in the remixes, it's the epitome of laziness IMO, and a real fan disservice. I've kinda accepted it but back when it came out I was sooooo pissed... some curses have been recited here.

I don't really have anything I really hate (not even the convoluted plot, I'm a really deep and abstract thinker and I LOVE convoluted plots, I love Inception for example) but 1 thing I kinda dislike is KH games reusing so much themes. Also I think the new melodies, dont hate them, but its a bit of a big wall of sound at places. That said, I really love Yoko Shimomura's music, I just think KH3 should have her give her all her best to compose as much new themes as possible (except common world themes such as Twilight Town maybe, but those could use some additional parts and melodies like KH3D's remixing too)

Well personally I'd prefer KH3 to have as few remixes as possible, tracks like Shrouding Dark Cloud, The Deep End, or the Twilight Town themes etc can return for nostalgia but honestly I'm pretty tired of them reusing songs all the time. I do personally hope the 13 Seekers of Darknesses get a remix of 13th Dilemma (not like in the HD Remakes, more like how L'oscurita dell'Ignot and L'eminenza Oscura 1/2 are done except a bit less over the top) and Shrouding Dark Cloud and the like will get a new touch too even if it's remixed. All in all, I'm all for reusing content but there has to be lots of new content too, please no Destiny's Force, Night of Fate, etc. all over again.

I'm not American either (a Dutchie ) but yeah happy indepence day :-)

I hope she'll be making a song for KH3 or they can at least use the lead single :-)

I don't get presents at Christmas, but the biggest present for me tbh is having my family around me and the fact I'm able to live happily. Sounds a bit philosophic, haha But tbh, my family, friends, all of that (and ofc Kingdom Hearts) is more important than some presents. So yup, I got all I wanted

I'm not sure if I want Riku to become a Heartless and Nobody because he already conquered his own darkness and became a hero, falling back into it would be a huge ass pull IMO and it would ruin all of his character development. But IF he'd become a Nobody... IMO he'd be Riku with a black cloak, his personality would be a bit colder and more sociopathic (Nobodies lack emotion) and with the heart regrowing thing, he would slowly regain his emotions like Roxas and Axel and become angsty and all of that.... nah I wouldn't be into that honestly. Riku has conquered his darkness already so doing it all again from the beginning would seem forced IMO. I'd honestly prefer Donald and Goofy having a darkness story arc instead. Shame it wouldn't happen, as it'd ruin our childhoods and all of that

What would Soranort's personality be like? I've been reading some fanfics and fan portrayals about him, and one that kinda touched my heart was a portrayal from a Tumbr user called Rxcusant; http://rxcusant.tumblr.com/ He's basically portrayed in her RPs like; he's turned into the 13th Xehanort Vessel but there's still some Sora left in him, cause of that he's deeply conflicted about what to feel and he just doesn't know what to do anymore. He sides with Xehanort and his vessels only because they're all he has left; his friends are beyond his reach, he can't run away for Kairi and Riku and all of them or Xehanort will pull him back, so he just resigned to his fate. He's not Sora like we know him; his personality became darker, colder and he has sociopathic tendencies (cause of Xehanort's fragment in him ofc) but under that layer of darkness, he's completely broken inside and he just doesn't know what to do anymore. He just wants to return to his friends and be done with all of this but he can't. Basically, kind of like Terra-Xehanort; Sora's strength of heart and Ventus inside him are fighting Xehanort's influence all the time. How would YOU guys think Soranort would be portrayed if Lea didn't save Sora in time? (Happy Holidays btw!)

Do: Bring Xion back.... p-please... Don't: Bring Xion back as a Xehanort Vessel. I'd hate that so much. She deserves to be happy that's all. Xehanort should keep his dirty hands off of her. Do: Let Sora (and maybe Donald and Goofy) feel angst. Don't: Make them lose again like in KH3D and KHCOM where they had to be saved/helped. Make them overcome it themselves this time. Do: Have the guys defeat Xehanort in the end for real. Don't: Make him become good or anything. For all the horrible stuff he's done I believe he crossed some sort of moral boundary (Moral Event Horizon in TVTropes speak) and he just doesn't deserve to be forgiven anymore, he's just evil, someone who does all that stuff just can't redeem anymore IMO, they're beyond saving.

Does that mean he's just as evil as Xehanort? Or does he mean he likes Xehanort as a character but the translator mistranslated it? I can't understand that line in that interview and I feel kinda confused and odd about it. Sorry if I'm missing something. I like Nomura as a director so no offense intended ;-) Just asking.

Thanks for all of this information ;-) But one question... this Keyblade War is like 1000's of years back isn't it? I mean, if it was like 100 years back, Young Xehanort would have witnessed it or his parents would have witnessed it or something wouldn't he? (in BBS he's like 80 years old, in KH1 he's reborn as AnsemSoD/Xemnas so he's 10 years older in a sense) If the generation before YMX had witnessed it they would've just told him all about it I guess and he wouldn't be so crazy looking for that knowledge, wouldn't he? Or am I missing something? And if Triton would be like 1000 years old wouldn't that be weird and vague? (unless he's based off of Poseidon or some other deity or whatever)

Oops, forgot about that. It's been a while since I saw those cutscenes and that secret ending after all. I think you're right. Thanks ;-)

I think it's a retcon. When KH1 and KH2 were created I don't think Nomura had thought up about Xehanort, Terra, etc. and Xehanort having a keyblade. So he got lightsabers. But I gotta admit... the above theories kinda make sense and if you take BBS and DDD's intro scene (My name... IS ANSEM!!!) in account, I think it indeed was to avoid the other members from suspecting him. Saïx and Xigbar might've known tho, them being secretly in league with Xemnas and all and intended to become Xehanort Vessels. I think Marluxia could also have known (maybe it sounds farfetched, but I think he betrayed Xemnas cause he suspected him)

I want KH3 to be fairly dark and intense, but not TOO dark. I mean, not like a plot where everyone is emo and angsty and such. But I think KH1, DDD and KHCoded are far too lighthearted, so not something like that. I hope it'll be on the level of BBS and COM dark, if not a little bit more. Hopefully, Sora will also have learned from his mistakes in DDD for once and become a little bit less naive. Not more cynical, as the friendship thing makes him who he is IMO and he shouldn't drop that, but he should be a bit more like how someone at the age of 17/18 would act. Like me, I'm 17, and I don't think friendship can magically solve everything either. Had too many bad experiences for that. Since I'm kinda cynical it's especially grating for me to hear Sora talk about all of that. I hope that the main characters (I mean Sora, Donald and Goofy) actually go through some angst this time (like in KHCoM) and instead of having to be saved like always I hope they overcome it themselves this time. But please... don't let Elsa die if she'd be in KH3, haha.
