Marluxia#4918 9 Posted September 21, 2019 A lot of the elements to those stories was simple and coherent which is why they work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Novayon 192 Posted September 21, 2019 I'm still in 2 minds about this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marluxia#4918 9 Posted September 21, 2019 Sure there's a lot of details to look at outside of the main story but there is a basic story structure it adheres to.Like you have wacky nomura but its kept structured and organised. 3 isnt for me. A reason I also blame is 3's attempt at being a game for eveyronewhen its clearly notfrom a narrative perspective anyways, but being a jrpg thats very hard to ignore.

OrpheusJoshua 126 Posted September 21, 2019 imagine a newcomer reacting to that scene with riku and mickey explaining xehanort's time travel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marluxia#4918 9 Posted September 21, 2019 Imagine a newcomer looking at every scene where they mention someone from the past Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Novayon 192 Posted September 21, 2019 It's a kinda pointless scene though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OrpheusJoshua 126 Posted September 21, 2019 a newcomer would be firetrucking flabbergasted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Novayon 192 Posted September 21, 2019 When, a newcomer should be watching the movie things Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OrpheusJoshua 126 Posted September 21, 2019 eh, kinda? I mean, that's the scene where they learn that Terra got possessed I thinkso it's something Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Novayon 192 Posted September 21, 2019 Sure there's that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marluxia#4918 9 Posted September 21, 2019 But its also bad imo because its shoved in between a load of other scenes also explaining enemies and events fromt he past Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liftea 11 Posted September 21, 2019 my gf played kh3 without any knowledge and understood everything except the union x stuff just by watching the cutscenes and reading the journal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Novayon 192 Posted September 21, 2019 But there's a fair bit of exposition in this game and not actually a lot of development Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marluxia#4918 9 Posted September 21, 2019 there are so many cutscenes at the beginning of 3 dedicated to exposition about prior eventsI cant be arsed to rewatch half of thembecause they offer nothing else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Novayon 192 Posted September 21, 2019 Yeah exactlyI've seen most of them just once Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liftea 11 Posted September 21, 2019 imo the scenes were unnecessary when the journal exists Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoldenDrummer730#4323 24 Posted September 21, 2019 well, they kinda are if people are gonna skip out on the journalkinda wish KH3 did what DDD did with memoriesask if you wanna check them out otherwise skip them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Novayon 192 Posted September 21, 2019 Didn't the KH community before release all meme about newcomers being baffled and recommending reading up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoldenDrummer730#4323 24 Posted September 21, 2019 totallyEverglow's timeline got posted a few times a day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Novayon 192 Posted September 21, 2019 Then we don't need these exposition scenes tbhSome of them make sense Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marluxia#4918 9 Posted September 21, 2019 theres a lot of tools to help newcomers in 3 that having cutscenes that are made just to explain it all again is unneeded Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
