the question is if he will have memories

or if it

sora taboo'd his way into quadratum, riku got a teleport ride, strel idk her reason tbh

Okay I'll be honest. I was going* to make a joke about how the VA SAG-AFTRA strike was going to effect this game and delay it to 2028 but apparently games in development prior to September of last year are unaffected. I'm *fairly certain that includes this one? Unsure honestly... but... uh... yeah... 😅

puts self in time-out corner. again

I would F-ING hope so.

The only thing that it will affect is the English localization.

Which is usually one of the last things to be done

I would also hope the strike wouldn’t last more than a year before companies provided the things he people went on strike for

I can't remember who the VA is off the top of my head, but there has already been discourse in Japan among veteran voice acting talent (I'm not awake enough right now to remember if it was anyone who does voice work on KH) because of how AI is influencing things. And a voice acting legend Megumi Hayashibara was on All Night Nippon talking about the pros and cons of AI for voice actors. It is not only the outside world that will be effected by this, Japan very much will be and already likely is in small ways.

For example it does not take too much knowledge of Japan's entertainment industry to know that those in the industry not signed to one of the big five entertainment agencies is going to be struggling for work more than ever before thanks to the growing presence and influence of AI. Like for real, gods help anyone over there not signed to Ogi Pro, Ohta Pro, Hori Pro, or Stardust Pro. I would mention the fifth of the big five, but that one has kind of been self imploding due to a founder related scandal and might simply go kaput.

Regardless of any of this stuff though I've had a fear of a chunk of the voice actors from KH being replaced for phase 2 proper just because of how old some of them are getting. I mean sure they might still be able to do the voices but it wouldn't be an unusual move especially on the English dubbing front to replace some, most, or even all of a cast with younger less experienced folk that can be paid less.

And if KH4 really comes out circa 2030 that'd be almost an entire decade since the current voice actors worked on the series. It was one thing for them to be kept on to finish the first phase, but really it would not be the slightest bit surprising if they either got forced out or even just made the decision not to return by the time the game's ready.

Day 840 😔

Ya miss me

Oh hey what's up dog

Nun much

And ofc the lazy ass kh devs

You ?

Idk if I mentioned it to u but platinumed Dark Souls 3 a few weeks ago finally- now I'm just killin time on Dreamlight Valley tbh

Ohh yeah i saw

Congrats

Now go do ER

If you could associate a ff summon with a respective kh characters. Who'd be what

Sora = Odin

Aqua= Shiva

Terra= Titan

Ventus= Garuda

Axel=Ifrit

Riku=Diabolos

Xion: Asura

Roxas=Fenrir

Kairi=Bahamut?

Xehanort I feel like would be Bahamut

Personality wise I think Sora befits like, Alexander or Phoenix, or Ifrit honestly. I know he's not a "fire guy" but, him as Ifrit, Kairi as Shiva? Goes kinda hard

Low key I was feeling Kairi as Shiva as well

Kairi is more moogle trio

Nah sora Phoenix

Riku odin

Nahhh Riku ain't got the rizz for Odin

Odin would make more sense for Vanitas or Xehanort
