Birth by Sleep seems like cool fun at first, and the simplification to Command Deck systems isn't a big problem initially as it gives the game its own unique charm. Then everyone becomes retarded, fights get tedious, bosses can attack and counter you whenever they damn well please and compared to the combat variety in KH2, it slowly devolves into Surges, Mines, and the rare Shotlock to actually hope to do anything. Simply trying to use Keyblade combos or actually pack a variety of Commands is a BAD idea because the game's design doesn't really allow for a lot of player flexibility.

I felt the same way about KH2. It just felt like a lot of the abilities just added another hit to your combo. Not only does this make it more mindless mashing, but the way the bosses were designed, I felt that long melee combos aren't the way to go, but theres not much room for customization like BBS. I still enjoyed KH2 very much, just felt BBS did some things better.

Nah m8 it's a pretty universally bad game.

>>
>>321589213
Well in KH2, smacking a boss around has them recover after a certain amount of hits. In BBS, they can recover whenever they please in the middle of your combo, which means a multi-hit attack with i-frames or an attack that doesn't need you near the enemy is the only safe and reliable way to damage a boss. Especially the bonus bosses. Apparently some call this a 'revenge mechanic'.

You hold the conjoined handle in the center, and the blade is a gigantic magic blade attached to the top that just sorta tears through whatever is in its path. It's the most powerful Keyblade, or rather, THE Keyblade all the others are imitations of.

Which means whatever created Kingdom Hearts and the Keyblade in-universe must've had internet to think up something that DeviantArt-tier.

When Ventus joined his Heart with Sora, that gave Ventus' Darkness (AKA Vanitas) the appearance of a grown Sora. I believe that's in the novelisation, so it's second tier canon until the games mention it.

It is. You remember that seen in the beginning of BbS where Ventus is talking to that light? That's Sora's heart as a newborn and he helps to fill in Ventus' fractured heart. That event causes the darkness that was previous extracted from him, Vanitas, to look like Sora. Sora is 4 by the time he pops up in BbS but is a newborn during that first scene.

This is confirmed in the Ultimanias.

In the Japanese version of the Young Xehanort scene in Re:coded, he mentions that Xehanort's Keyblade bears a will, and that it's older than the others.

Coupled with recent confirmation that χ[chi] will explain Xehanort's Keyblade, it's becoming incredibly likely that Xehanort is himself a pawn in a larger game, or influenced by the will within his Keyblade (which he probably stole).

Xehanort's Keyblade probably belonged to the traitor, and it somehow got into the hands of Eraqus and Xehanort's Master's hand and then Xehanort somehow got it and shit went south.

They always had a passive factor of going for their wielder and reacting to Keyholes or other macguffins on their own. It's entirely plausible every Keyblade has a basic 'will' for functionality, but Xehanort.. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if he basically is his Keyblade or it has to do something with his Guardian.

Sora controls like a clunky motherfucker because he's an inexperienced, untrained kid looking for his friends. He's not even the intended recipient of the Keyblade he uses, at least at first. It makes sense. The gameplay is used to convey the story.

Not really? None of the shit he can do in the first game correlates to experience he gained in past battles. He's just able to do spinny midair combos and other anime shit for some reason. If the point was to convey experience he gained he would have kept stuff like Ars Arcanum and Sonic Rave in his arsenal. If anything, Limit Form is closer to what you're describing. The game even describes it as "using the Keyblade as you once did".

>>321594823
>>321594458
>>321595541
Sora literally has almost a year's worth of growing experience from Roxas' memories and self growing and developing again inside of him. It's why he needs a Limit Form in Final Mix+ to use his old abilities again, because Roxas - who is an emotional berserker that would rather mash his Keyblade(s) into your face repeatedly once he hit his snapping point - had the dominant combat knowledge brought into him. That button-mashing is literally cycling some of Sora's magic knight tendencies into Roxas' wild card beatdown methods while also increasing his power and skill significantly all the same.
>>
>>321595882
Yeah, because KHII is a more aerial game. Something KH1 was very, very bad at. It made large and flying enemies a pain in the dick. This is a gameplay consideration more than anything, and we should all be glad it was made.

The argument could also be made that since Roxas was doing some of his own combat before being returned to Sora, that Sora has that experience added on top.

Maybe I missed something. But what was the point of the time travel if he was going to lose his memory anyway and he couldn't change events that were destined to be? Wouldn't that have defeated the purpose of time travel in the first place?

And another thing, if the people who use time travel go back to their own time, wouldn't Xemnas and Ansem be dead? Since they were a Nobody and Heartless that would mean they would be dead for Master Xehanort to return. Somebody explain this too me cause I'm confused as fuck

He's not trying to change the past. The purpose of the time travel is the get 13 versions of Xehanorts in one time to act as a new Organization.
13 dark hearts to clash with 7 lights to reforge the χ-blade and incite a second Keyblade War.

>wouldn't Xemnas and Ansem be dead?
They are.
But they're also time traveling.

If you traveled 500 years into the future, you would be long dead except you aren't because you're traveling past the point of your death.

So, Xemnas and Ansem aren't dead anymore because of time travel? But when they ran out of time in DDD that meant all the Xehanorts returned to their own timeline. Shouldn't those two be dead or at least have no memory of what happened in DDD?
>>
>>321599492
When they returned to their own time, they stopped existing in the present.
The past is unchanged.

So yes.
They are dead.

I'm assuming you're getting stuck on them being in the present. Like, if they're here, then they can't die in the past, which means that Master Xehanort can't recomplete, right?

Well, no. Because they go back to the past. They aren't permanent fixtures in the present, and the past can't be changed anyway.

They go back to the exact moment they left. They have no memories of their travels.

Oh hey, look over there. Is that the plot?

I feel like it would be hard to bring people up to speed each time they time travel unless there's some cache of memories they draw from when they're brung up to speed.

Okay thanks for clearing that up. I was so stuck on the time travel in DDD. Well now it makes sense. KH threads on /v/ are always so informative
>>
Why does /v/ like 2 so fucking much?
Pretty much any human I've interacted with directerly, in person or otherwise agrees it was a letdown from the first.
>>
>>321600502
Because it's more fun to replay and we've touched KH1 more than once.

Because those people you interacted with are either nostalgia fags or people who never played KH 2 Final Mix.
>>
>>321600502

To be fair, I think a lot of people consider 2 FM, when they say 2, which had a lot of improvments.

Otherwise, yeah, I thought 2 was incredibly disappointing. The combat was mash X even more than 1, and the worlds felt inconsequential and lifeless because you can now jump 500 miles in the air, the edgy cloak people were unlikable, etc.
>>
>>321599946
It is still kinda ridiculous but it makes sense. If you need to capture this dumbass kid who's too stupid to do something more than fight what's in his path and continue his test, might as well get other versions of yourself to assist even if it's only temporary.

3DDD is one of the worst games in the series.

A lot of people already have.

But I think when it actually comes out in English, people will pick it up and maybe change their minds.

It's pretty fuckin' good, as far as mobile games go at least.

Play 2FM on Critical, it is goes from a mashy ARPG to a character action game rivaling Platinum's in depth and quality, except with rpg elements, cloud, and mickety mouse.

I like the Luminous character models better though. Something is off with the Unreal characters models. Hopefully they can clean them up

Fairly. It's supposed to give a lot of backstory and have connections with KH3
>>
>>321603457
They've already been progressing with the character models so hopefully they'll be cleaned up for the final release. Look at E3 Sora and see how dogshit he looks compared to D23 Sora.
>>
>>321602910
>So Back Cover is something entirely new?
Yes.
>How important is all this X[chi] shit?
Fairly important. I don't know if you'll NEED it to understand, but important nonetheless.

Nomura phrased missing out on χ[chi] as being like Sora, who also doesn't know everything, but knows enough to keep going.

>>321603457
Those early renders were way too shiny.
>>
>>321586869
Same here.
The gameplay is fun for a DS game, and Roxas, Xion, Axel, and pretty much the rest of the organization XIII are my favorite characters in the series.
Only point that I think they fucked up is that the worlds you visit dont really have a plot in them.
They are there more to fill some time between Roxas and Xion story scenes.

There was always a bit of story in each world you visited in previous games.
In KH2 and BBS if I remember right you had to visit the same world twice even.

He's my favorite VA in the series. They sound the same yet so different. I love that

>>321606265
So do you think Roxas and Xion will be able to wield keyblade when they're whole people? Or since they're not a part of Sora anymore they'll lose the ability?
>>
>>321604882
Just roxas?
>>
>>321606461
I'd assume that they have to meet the requirements to do so. You have to remember Sora is pretty much the exception.

Xion shouldn't even exist anymore so I have no idea how the fuck Nomura is going to pull this shit off without it being a complete ass pull. Actually, I don't even know how he's going to make Roxas his own person with him being a part of Sora

I want drive forms back, anti-form was the coolest shit.

They've been confirmed since day 1 get with the program.
>>
>>321606787

Technically speaking she exists.

The links that make up her chain of memories are still there, they were just disconnected when Namine restored Sora.

Think of it as Xion being film on the cutting room floor, you can't see her because she isnt spliced into everyone's reel, but her film is still there, which is why you catch glimpses of her in 3D.
>>
>>321606891

Nomura said he's considering bringing it back for KH 3. So there's that
>>
>>321606787
I do think even want her to come back. I'm just not a fan of her character especially after I found out about her and Days' development.

But didn't Days state that her existence would be erased and nobody will have a single memory of her? As in, she never existed in the first place. If she never existed, how can they have memories of Xion?

>KH2 has no meaning behind it all
>I have never played Final Mix Critical Mode
Fuck you
You have to carefully learn enemy attack patterns and figure out when to best dodge, switch out what abilities for what boss battles, when its best to block, when its best to attack, when its best to go into drive form, is the risk reward for drive form chances with anti form existing worth it, etc.
I think the easiest way to see this are the Larxene Data battles, but honestly most boss battles in critical are challenging.
And it also makes sense considering how much he learned between 1 and 2.
>>321586491
Shit taste please go
KH1 actively has less to do in combat, bosses have less attack abilities available, had a shitty camera which especially hurt it in levels like Peter Pan, and had dumb platforming segments that were unnecessarily difficult and added nothing to the game.

thats why in days they started as empty shells then grew personality's

and if you have a heart in KH you're good to go

>>321607595
As of 3D Sora and Co. are aware of Xion. And there some heart shit involved

>>
>>321607595

Her existence would be erased in the fact that disconnecting her chain of memories to fix Sora, would also remove everyone elses chain of memories connected to her.

For all intents and purposes, she doesnt, and never existed, because nobody can remember her.
>>
>>321607712
Technically Roxas had a heart from the jump. This was alluded to in the Ultimanias.
>>
Why does everyone hate 358/2 days? Roxas is my favorite protagonist and 358 was my favorite game.
>>
>>321607595
She was a Replica made from memories, and as such was forgotten about. Her existence depended on memories.

So when she disappears, and the memories she was made of return to Sora, the links that those memories made were undone.

But as Naminé explains in CoM, memories don't disappear forever.

>>321608025
It's a bad game
>>
>>321608025

I don't know.

I actually thought days was pretty solid from both a gameplay and story perspective.

The gear system was also really interesting and different.

My only real gripe is how utterly OP the magic is.
