you know what blew me away about Yozora

how he is such a natural evolution of the super bosses of the mainline titles

each FM secret boss represents that games peak ultimate challenge

KH1 mysterious figure puts the players understanding of soras movement to the ultimate test and pushes the players limits on what they understand about kh combat

KH2 Lingering Will represents KH2's peak as well, giving a boss that takes from the original kh1 mysterious figure, but provides countless other introductions to concepts that would become popular in games like KH3 (keyblade transformation in particular). KH3 having yozora is a clear evolution of Lingering will as well

here we see a character who is by design created for the snappy block and dodge controls of KH3 as well as one that expects the player to learn proper cancelling of attacks and mastery of the airstep added in the game

Yozora takes what we see from lingering will (locking attack and magic) and takes that to another level by stealing your methods of attacking using magic, healing and reviving.

the numbered titles FM superbosses feel handcrafted with so much love being put into something designed to make the player die over and over and over again

for me the air slide is better than the air dodge version

air slide goes farther and actually feels like you can break out of it rather quickly

I turned off the air dodge simply because it actually leaves you more open then the non combat one

made my life alot easier

no theres air slide abilities and there is the air dodge ability. air dodge replaces air slide during combat, but its actually worse than air slide

lol cid is literally amazing

btw aparently he was working on that data recreation for the entire year

Lol nomura is cid confirmed

Yeah removing Aerial Dodge once you have slide is a must, Slide goes waaay farther and works in combat if dodge is off.

it also has better invincibility frames

and cancels quicker at the end

"Nomura you are a million times worse than a broken record"

something I apreciate is roxas, xion, axel, saix, hayner, pence, and ollete officially being referred to as the "twilight town gang"

by riku

just felt so refreshing

they feel really fresh

like lets be real we havent had really really new music to this franchise since bbs honestly

and most of the games like ddd and recoded outside of world themes used most of what came from 2 as well

its the most bizarre title in the series

hands down

THIS SHIT THO

NEED MORE OF THIS

like even re:coded feels more "consistent" with the overall vibe kingdom hearts brings compared to DDD

THAT BEGINNING IS HELLA GOOD

this one man this was my favorite

it felt sooooooooo marluxia and classic

and marluxia is my favorite character next to aqua

this song reminds me of the 13th anthology version of the song

SETTLE DOWN

not gonna lie tho gonna say it again really wished he summoned the reaper again and said "strelitzia guide me" but they were data so its cool

skull with blood puddle cool

i do wish he used his reaper again, but the one that irked me most was Xion

really the reaper himself

no zebra mansex either

not the fight the fight was cool

, but simply the lack of armor

meh xion is what ev

idc for her lol

i like xions forms design so much, I wish nomura would acknowledge it

this is my favorite version of lord of the castle ever and nothing will top this version

but KH3 version is alot like this one so i like it alot

back in Com is was cooler, but tbh had some weird delivery in Re:chain of memories

i mean, it sure was a game alright

like I thought the idea of marluxia betraying the organization was very cool, which is also why him being in org 13 in kh3 was dumb

like back in KH com his goal was to use sora to conquer the organization and eventually gain hearts for themselves

being people again, they had literally, and i mean literally, nothing to gain from rejoining org 13

this is why norting shouldve actually been explained

and kept consistent

but being norted doesnt actually mean anything

it means you got a piece of xehanort in you, but it doesnt actually do anything to the person

it makes what xehanort was gonna do to sora in kh DDD completely pointless

"oh no soras gonna have yellow eyes, whatever will we do"

but if you look at characters like vexen and demyx they were norted too but look at them, they completely went behind org 13's back

like norting literally does nothing, that is offcial

also vexens eyes turn green again in the ending cutscene, just wanted to confirm that

meaning after xehanort died all his "norts" eyes turn back to normal

dont think about it just ignore it

like seriously base game kh3 is literally chalk full of these contradictions

base game kh3 is hands down the most contradictory kh game

it says one thing, and maybe a few cutscenes later will just ignore that thing

"sora you cant go to the realm of darkness, you dont have the power of waking" goes anyway, everything turns out fine

re:mind is much more tightly written

alot less stupid schlock

I was annoyed they went through the trouble of animating the dark worlds world opener for literally 2 boss fights in the entire place

I thought rikus sections were actually gonna be sections not just bosses

KH3 in some regards still let me down, but re:mind helped heal those wounds

yeah im still made about that

riku in base game kh3 actually annoys me

like basically i skip any cutscene with riku in it because I know he does nothing important

I think the next game is gonna be them together finding sora so theres hope

YOU HEAR ThIS NOMURA JUST MAKE IT THEM FOR A WHOLE GAME

I think it came with the Keyblade

The 7 princesses of heart weren't for going to the realm of darkness, they were for summoning Kingdom Hearts.

And I thought that plot technically failed considering he ended up going with an artificial KH made of fallen worlds after the princesses were rescued anyway.

I dont even care where he got it, its kinda cute that he gave her one

But that wasnt an artificial kh, that was the real one sealed in the realm of darkness, right?

yeah because he planned to bust open the door to darkness and release kingdom hearts from the RoD

little did he know that as a heartless kingdom hearts being light makes him deathly alergic to it

causing spontaneous combustion

huh I actually found a real answer for why he hands kairi her keyblade

Nope, KH1 Kingdom Hearts was a fake one made of the hearts of worlds.

Just like KH2 was from the hearts of people.
