Why do people prefer Roxas over Sora?

Because Roxas isn't a bitch

What, Roxas is a complete bitch.
>>
>>339183801
Well he had something to bitch about
>>
>>339181357
Honestly it's because with Sora X Kairi, there's like zero romantic development between them. It feels largely implied that they just like each other for no reason at all.

That's why Sora x Nomine made Sora look better. Because as he was losing his memories, he grew attached to this girl who he held as his one and true memory. Even though it was false, it still helped him out.

Then enter Roxas x Xion. They were perfect together. They grew up together, grew close together, and began to rely on each other. It was absolutely perfectly handled, and Roxas was given a real reason to fight.
He was like a Sora, but better in every way. Also, it got rid of fucking Donald and Goofy, the absolute worst characters in kingdom heart.

I am playing KH2, I just finished Pirates of the Caribbean world. I suddenly realized, I have no idea why I am doing anything.

The keyblade seems to be sending to a random world to do random shit over and over.

Because he was the first character to actually get sick of people's bullshit and demand an explanation for a change.

I'm playing through KH1 for the first time and Sora seems pretty normal. Naturally confused and a little frustrated at the start. I guess years of no school resulted in the dumbass we got in 3D. He went full shounen.

Roxas is pretty much screaming "what the fuck is going on?!?"

Daily reminder Xion is nothing but a puppet with no emotions and no individualism, she has no soul, no heart, therefore she cant be someone, not even a nobody.

Move along now but remember, Roxas made a friendship with a ''robot'' the game wants us to feel empathy and give Xion meaning but she is still a puppet.

Yes. So there is no major mission like like closing the keyholes?

Because he's more relatable than Sora. Sora just goes around trusting ANY FUCKING BODY. And he's too fucking forgiving. Neku sold him out in Dream Drop Distance and put him in harms way and Sora is like "meh whatever we're friends!" He's not even slightly upset.

Roxas wants answers. He wants to know people's intentions and wants to know what the fuck is going on around him. He also just wants to live a normal, happy life with his friends but bad shit just keeps on happening to him and it's not even his fault. He's a more interesting character than Sora will ever be
>>
>>339181357
Roxas isn't as one dimensional as Sora is. I like Sora as much as the next guy but they could've either allowed someone else to be the MC or not put so much significance on him like he's the Jesus of the KH Universe. There are far more interesting characters who could use more screen time and development than him. It's been like 3 games with Sora and he hasn't really matured aside from fantasizing about banging Kairi.

At this point he's just going to be an overglorified Ash Ketchem that the series can't shake loose without creating spinoffs or ending the series. Even Donald and Goofy could use a break at some point.
>>
He was fine in KH1 and KH COM
But now he's just your typical "goku" like character after KH2

>Axel/Lea gets amazing character development
>Xigbar/Braig gets amazing character development

>Sora, the main protagonist of the fucking series, gets no fucking character development and gets dumber as the series progress

This is Shonen bullshit (the main characters gets no development but everybody else does) written all over it. It's like DBZ for example. Goku gets zero character development and gets more dumber as the series progresses but characters like Vegeta, Piccolo and Gohan get so much development.

Nomura better give Sora some fucking character development in KH 3.
>>
>>339193102
Well Sora isn't supposed to be the MC
>>
>>339193102
They give him development but they do it wrong.
As you said, there are great examples of character development like Riku, Roxas etc Whereas Sora got his development in 1 and in COM (where it was great imo) but when 2 came around.. he got pretty generic and ''I got dis guys :DD'' altought there were sometimes were we could see his concern and his maturity (even though he isnt mature at all).
They shat the bed in DDD where they made him look like a dumbfuck and a pussy.

Unlike Sora Roxas was brought into an organization where he had to take orders and go on missions. Then after a few months of Roxas's one year life things started going to shit

>>339193850
I only said that because the Keyblade was supposed to be for Riku in KH1 but it went to sora because Riku got taken by darkness.

What development Goku got in Z or are you referring to Super? (Haven't been keeping up with Super)

Goku from Saiyan Saga is the same Goku at the end of Z. A happy go lucky, naive idiot who loves to fight. Meanwhile, Vegeta got all the sweet character development. Starting out a vicious alien hellbent on genocide and obsessed with beating Goku to a family man who loves Earth and accepted that Goku is better than him

>Jesse Mcartney's delivery of that line

He's easily in the top 3 best voice actors in the series. In the same league as Leonard Nimoy and Billy Zane
>>
>>339194621
>He didn't watch DB
He started out as a bit of a brat in the very beginning of the series but grew nicer.
Also, he used to kill the vast majority of the people he fought. It wasn't until he came back from kami's training that he started showing mercy to enemies.
Then there's Z where super saiyan used to influence his emotions and decision making, which he didn't really get fixed until training in the hyperbolic time chamber.
Again, it's subtle, but it's there.

>>
>>339194236
Yeah, but look at Sora's life before shit hit the fan in KH1. No responsibilities, no enemies, island paradise, just played with his friends all day and then went home to his (presumably nice) parents.

It takes someone longer to grow up when their life never forces them to.

Personally, I like both characters for different reasons. Roxas is more relatable. Sora is an ideal. Roxas is like who we are, and Sora is like who we aspire to be. (Note I never played DDD or BBS, I'm going by KH, KH2, CoM cutscenes and Days).
>>
I think it's the fact that he had a lot more character development shown and ironically it makes him appear more human than Sora.
>>
>>339194129
Is that supposed to kairi's battle stance in kh 3?

It still works that way in later games.

Same. It was okay when sora was just a little kid, and the keyblade was assumed to be heavy, but that stance isn't believable at all when we see sora use it to chop up buildings.
>>
>>339181357
He just wanted to chill out and have a good summer with his friends. But it turned out his life was a more fucked up version of the Truman show. Also TWO KEYBLADES.
>>
>>339197002
Name an objectively better Disney villain than xehanort
>>
>>339196085
Believe me, I didn't believe it either. They spawn behind you and since one shot from them knocks you down to 1 HP the next one that hit me instantly killed me before I could do anything. Low HP stuff is terrifying at times, especially when around Invisibles, but this was just depressing.
>>
>>339196958

Normies love KH. The fuck are you talking about? It was their first action RPG and they love Disney
>>
>>339197096
The only reason I want him to change it is because of the fact that him, Roxas, and Xion have the same stance but with the keyblade at different angles.
>>
>>339197502
fug, didn't even notice. b-but they're all the same person! muh symbolism!

>>339197218
Maybe 10 years back, after 2 (which was 10 years ago anon) The normies havent seen another big Kingdom Hearts coming out and those who are waiting for KH3 are people who grew with it.

>I like Sora as much as the next guy but they could've either allowed someone else to be the MC or not put so much significance on him like he's the Jesus of the KH Universe.
You do know that being Jesus is the reason why Sora is the main character? He's supposed to show compassion, understanding, and act as the good justice in the world. A morally ambiguous person like Roxas or Riku wouldn't make a good hero.

Riku's story in CoM is my favorite part of the series story wise and I'd love to get more like that.

I feel like Roxas' story has kind of run it's course at this point though, even Days wasn't all that necessary since what went on with him in the Organization was already heavily inferred in 2.

The only people who don't know what's going on are the ones that didn't play all the games. Yes, even the ones that aren't numbered are important to the story. Although I still don't see how unchained is important but I also didn't finish all the missions available in the US, so yeah.

>>339192342

What's funny is that Ash, after 18 years, is FINALLY getting good character development in Pokemon XYZ. It took 18 fucking years but Ash is finally growing as a character. I hope this is a sign that Nomura will give Sora character development in KH 3

Sora's totally positive attitude is part of what made KH1's story so perfect, his devotion to Riku and Kairi gave me feels to no end. I guess it's just hard to think of what else to do with that archetype for so many games.

What I really want is more focus his relationship with on Donald and Goofy, even if it is just in funny gag scenes, no main character in the series have been given worse treatment then them after 2.

Sora isn't even a very good hero to begin with. He gets baited like a retard throughout the series into helping the enemy achieve their goals. He has such bad character flaws but they never get better and are just glossed over. The only reason he's even still alive and holding a Keyblade is because he keeps getting retarded second chances like when Kairi turned him back into a person from a Heartless. Honestly, someone like Aqua or Roxas would've been a 100x more interesting to follow over a series of games than him.
>>
>>339205001
People who have played both should like the GBA one by default, the only reason you can like Re:CoM is for the voiced cutscenes and maybe the boss fights(Even if they're easier). Everything else is a straight up downgrade.

Not exactly an original question but what are everyone's hopes and expectations in terms of Disney worlds in 3?

I'd be content with one from every post Princess and the Frog movie and one or two from early Pixar, with Toy Story obviously being a must. Preferably the only world I want to see returning is 100 Acre Woods, I'd be seriously disappointed if Agrabah, Halloween Town and the like showed up yet again.
>>
>>339213005
Personally I wouldn't mind Agrabah again if they decided to break from the City and go King of Thieves giant turtle island with it.

That aside I'm rooting for Treasure Planet or Atlantis. And if we're counting completely unrealistic hopes Shibuya or Star Wars featuring the cast of FFXII.

Chain of Memories first
TRUST ME ANON
you WONT regret it
Playing a game about a character losing his memories is waaay better if you dont know what the fuck happened, because you feel the void that sora feels, and when you finish it, play the first one, I did this and without giving spoilers, you will feel a extra connection with the MC because you will "remember" KH1 While playing it, then play kh2 and then in release order
>>
>>339213005
Im gonna miss Halloween Town. I love the movie to DEATH and Jack was super fun to battle with
>>
>>339213005
Princess and the Frog should basically be mandatory at this point. Facilier and his shadows are made to be Heartless material. Granted the story would have to be different, either you become a frog or you help Tiana and carry her and the crew place to place with the swappable member being the crocodile who attacks with his smooth grooves.

The Emperor's New Groove is also made for it since the areas are gigantic enough to work and Yzma would be great to fight with Krunk doing silly stuff in the background. The only thing they'd need is a replacement for Eartha Kitt and who knows if the person they'd pick would be good.

Frozen is obviously going to be added so I'd like to see Olaf be a summon or something and some ice heartless here and there. Don't know how they'd do the big bad though, have the prince consumed by the darkness or something?

Jungle Book should also be done since it was almost in BBS as long as it's not the live action one since they want to cash in on that one.

Toy Story was nearly added in KH2FM+ as summons so I'd like to see if they'd bother with that as a world, though if they stay away from Pixar stuff that would be fine too even if a Monsters Inc. sounds like it could be fun and have you end up going back to the Destiny Islands through a door at one point.

Only things I don't want to see are Star Wars and Marvel inclusions. We'd just end up with another PotC situation.

Riku is Sasuke done right. I remembered Sasuke being evil as fuck and then just said sorry and everybody just forgave despite all the horrible shit he done.

Riku on the other hand just so much to fix all his mistakes he did and even went so far to alter his appearance in order to keep Sora and Kairi safe. He put is on well being in jeopardy in order to protect his friends. He wouldn't give up until he felt like he earned his trust and respect back. Dream Drop Distance only made Riku even better. He's the best character in the series
>>
>>339222783
He's also the first character since Xehanort to master the ability to use darkness without being completely consumed by it.
>>
>>339222960

But Xehanort's the bad guy.

Because Xehaort wasn't trying to trick him.

Also remember for most of the game Riku was inside Sora protecting him meaning every time Riku saw Xehanort it just meant the infection had been successful.

That's where the Re: comes in
Chain of Memories was on GBA, but then it was remade for PS2 and packaged with Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix in Japan, then later released without Final Mix in North America.
>>
>>339227593
'CoM' was originally a Gameboy Advance game but was remade for PS2 as 'Re: CoM'.
There's also a 'KH: Coded' movie in the second HD collection.
>>
>>339227838
>>339227860
Alright, so why is it called 'Final Mix' anyways? It's Kingdom Hearts 1, correct?
Either way I'm starting it now, I assume I should go with normal difficulty or is the game baby mode easy?
>>
>>339228034
Think of the Final Mixes are the definitive versions of those games. They tend to add in extra bosses, cutscenes, gameplay rebalancing, etc.
>>
>>339228034
It's called Final Mix because it is the final version of the game(s), with more content, like bosses and keyblades, and areas.
>>
BOYPUSSY
>>
>>339228034
Final Mixes are the same game but with more stuff

KHFM has new cutscenes, a new secret boss, some new features, new abilities

1.5 is sort of like a Final Mix Again, because it revamps the control scheme, remasters the soundtrack, adds EXP Zero and replaces some of the models with newer ones from Dream Drop Distance.

The Final Mixes were originally released on the same platforms as the original versions.
But they were exclusive to Japan until 1.5 and 2.5

>Okay so difficulty level I should play on? I dont want to not have fun because im dying a lot.
I'm gonna say Standard ("Final Mix" in KHFM), since it's your first time through.
In Re:CoM, it kind of doesn't matter at all, I couldn't see any difference between the three, and Beginner has slightly better droprates so go with that.

In KHIIFM, you should play on Critical. Trust.

Proud for BbSFM, because otherwise you'll have a bitch of a time unlocking the real ending.

play on proud. KH isnt that hard a series, just familiarize yourself with the combat mechanics and remember that you have a block button. most players think that they can spam X and be fine and rage when they die because they dont block anything.

Play 1, then ReCom, then watch the movie. When you get to 2.5, play on critical mode. its they way its meant to be played.

It doesn't matter if he technically belongs to Disney, you're just outing yourself as an autist if you try to explain that to any normal person.

>Not a fucking retard

To be fair, is Sora really retarded? No one ever fills him in on the background details of what the fuck is ever happening so he's more likely just confused to the situation and plays along. Hell we the players have full context of KH's story and most people don't even know whats going on either.

They made the story way more convoluted than what it needed to be by including Roxas and whatever group he was associated with

You can really feel that after KH2. After that, things just go REALLY off the rails.

>>339236394
Who???
>>
>>339236946
I must say so that the Roaxs's intro in KH2 is probably the most comfy moments I felt in a game, I just thought it was weird he was some related entity to Sora down the line without any backstory unless it's in a spin-off
>>
>>339237416
>Without any backstory
Except they do explain that. It's hinted at in CoM and then fully explained in Days. At least I think it is. If not Days, then KH2 probably

That's why I said unless it was in a spin-off, also I may be really off on this but wasn't chain of memories released around the time the first one came out? I used to play it a lot on my GBA
>>
>>339222783

Not to mention Riku didn't kill a bunch of people or endanger the lives of millions. Worst he did was try to use Pinnoichio as a surrogate or whatever to restore Kairi, and let the fake-Ansem ream his butthole who then tried to kill Sora.

>>339221826
Axel was cool because he was one of the only people in org 13 that seemed to have any real character development.
>>
>>339237416
The explanation of Roxas begins in CoM, and ends in KHII.

In CoM, Sora is given a card from the "other side" of his heart, the memory of a world he's never been to called Twilight Town.

When you finish Reverse/Rebirth, you get an end screen with a poem and a shot of Roxas on the clock tower.

Then Roxas is formally introduced in KHII and it's slowly revealed to him (and the player) that he's Sora's Nobody, though his appearance isn't explained until BbS, and only through implication rather than exposition.

Nah Chain of Memories came out in 2004. 2 years after the first game.

To make it look like they have a heart/feel real.
It's eventually revealed that a nobody will eventually regrow a heart, and the fact that they don't have one was a lie by Xehanort to make them gather hearts for Kingdom Hearts.

>Why do people prefer Roxas over Sora?
The same reason why people like Bats over Supes or Saucegay over Nurutu. People like the angsty troubled characters over the hopeful ones.

If you can't change what happened in the past then why did Xehanort bother going to the past in the first place?
If you can only go back and not forward then how is Young Xehanort in the present?
If they have to leave their bodies behind to time travel then how come they are still kicking your ass?

I bought 1.5 and 2.5 lads and plan to try to 100 percent everything on proud (not level one though because I'm a pussy) before 2.8 comes out.

I'm up to the Dragon Malificent fight and came to the realisation that it's tedious as fuck to try and 100 percent these games. Is it worth it?
I might skip 100 percenting KH1 because I've done it before as a kid though.
>>
>>339241429
KH1FM and KH2FM are a couple of my favorite games ever and I haven't 100% either
Doing skateboard shit on every world or getting an arbitrary number of extra materials for the journal even though I already synthesized everything is just pointless and not fun
>>
>>339235751
Some of them do it deliberately to try to trick you. Xemnas, for example, pretends to be sad about the situation he's in and Sora calls him on his bullshit.

Others have the memory of how they should react to certain stimulus or situations, so they behave as if they have emotions, but the actual feeling isn't there. Demyx acted scared a lot of the time, but that was just the result of his body acting automatically to situations that would normally scare him. When he focused, he was able to act entirely without emotion. Same thing with how a lot of them laugh all the time. They're incapable of actually finding something funny, but they react automatically in the same way they would have before they lost their hearts. Basically, they remember how they "should" act and behave accordingly, but they lack the emotions that would normally motivate that behavior.

And then some, like Axel and Roxas, were actually regrowing their hearts, allowing them to truly feel emotions again.

>>339240429
>pulling the naruto comparisons with Roxas
anon, I think you missed the world's most obvious comparisons
Sora - Naruto
Riku - Sasuke
Kairi - that one with the pink hair
They even have the same dynamic
>>
>>339240850
>If you can only go back and not forward then how is Young Xehanort in the present?
Because you can go forward.

>If they have to leave their bodies behind to time travel then how come they are still kicking your ass?
When Terra-Xehanort splits himself into Heartless and Nobody, that fulfills the requirement of "leaving his body behind." So the Robed Figure obtains that ability.
And that grants the ability to "Xehanort" as a person, across his timeline, should the Robed Figure visit them and pass the power along, like he did with Young Xehanort.

Think of it like buying a game. You spend the $60 to get the game, and now it's yours forever, and you could even share it with friends.
Even if you get another $60, you still have the game.

>>339241429
KHFM is a pain in the dick because of Gummi missions
The Trophies make it even worse because of unstacked difficulty Trophies and other things

KHIIFM isn't too long to 100%, and it was pretty enjoyable the whole way.

Re:CoM is not worth it unless you're Autismus Prime.
BbS is a similar, but less soul-crushing, slog of a Platinum.

So the KH trio are slighly less shitty versions of the Naruto main characters

Kinda mirrors what I think of their plots as a whole
>>
>>339242070
>Because you can go forward.
Maybe I was thinking of something else but you are right

>grants the ability to "Xehanort" as a person, across his timeline
but how does he grant the ability?
I get that the robed xehanort can travel through time because he has no body but how can the rest?
Young Xehanort says that the robed one returned to the past to set him on the path that will follow the robed one's plans, but that means altering the past, which is something that supposedly can't happen, so what gives?

Nomura
Just stop questioning it, these games get so much better when your eyes glaze over and you forget you're playing a game where Donald discusses the rules and intricacies of inter-dimensional travel five minutes after a final fantasy character tells goofy about the darkness that exists in everyone's heart.
