So, I've just been thinking about that title "Dream Drop Distance" recently ever since that name has been revealed to us. I've been trying to figure out what that means. I mean, think about it guys, haven't you noticed that every KH game that has a title name in it means something? I have been noticing this ever since Days had came out. I mean this is what I mean:

 

"358/2 Days"- Title meaning that that's how long Roxas was in the Organization and what events went on while Sora was asleep for a year. Which is why it's called "358/2 Days".

 

"Chain of Memories"- Title meaning that Sora's memories are going to be rewritten and how his memories connected with people that he's met. Which is why it's called "Chain of Memories".

 

"Birth by Sleep"- Title meaning that Terra, Aqua, and Ven's sleep have begun and how they will they will be reborn and/or awakened from their slumber. Which is why it's called "Birth by Sleep".

 

Coded- Title meaning that Mickey and co. have to decode the message "Their hurting will be meanded when you return to end it". Which is why it's called "Coded"

 

So you see what I mean by this? The title "Dream Drop Distance" will have a meaning behind the game and will have ties to other KH games. As well as give us a hint about the game (yes the KH titles ALWAYS gives you a hint about the plot) Just like the titles I've mentioned here. So the question is "What does this title mean exactly and how will it connect with the game and KH3?". Well, like I said earlier I've been studying the KH3D trailer and I think I got an idea of what it will mean. But I must warn you, this may not make any sense to some of you all and it's very hard for me to explain it.

 

Well, first off let me tell you something. I don't think it literally means Sora and Riku will be dreaming. Just my thought on that since a lot of people seem to think that. Now if you've noticed in the recent KH3D trailer, we see a bunch of Soras falling from the sky. This could possibly be connected to the word "Drop" in "Dream Dop Distance". And lets not forget, Nomura said that he wants a game where a Riku flies and a Sora falls. This could be what Nomura meant by that.

 

Now another thing that I've seen to notice. Ansem and Xemnas was shown in the trailer and looked like they were getting ready to fight Sora and Riku. Well, has anybody noticed that it could possibly connect with the word "Dream"? And no I don't mean as in Sora and Riku dreaming. I mean like it could be just illussions of Ansem and Xemnas. Now, leys focus back on our attention to multiple Soras falling. That could also connect with the term "Dream" as well.

 

Now, as for the word "Distance". I'm not exactly sure about that one. But I think it might mean that Sora and Riku will be away from each other. But I'm not certain for sure since your going to forcefully switch between the two.

 

So, what do you think? Discuss and speculate on this theory.

Well I agree with you in some ways my theory is:

Dream-Sora and Riku will be dreaming.

Drop-The game will allow players to jump really high and do new things.

Distance-Sora and Riku will be jumping, slyding, and flying to great, long, high, and far distances.

im with kingdomhearts12, dream can't just mean sora and riku will be dreaming, it's just not nomura's way, he likes to confuse and make things seem what they're not.

Well I agree with you in some ways my theory is:

Dream-Sora and Riku will be dreaming.

Drop-The game will allow players to jump really high and do new things.

Distance-Sora and Riku will be jumping, slyding, and flying to great, long, high, and far distances.

 

Could be but i rather dont think so because each title was story related so i dont think the title will have to do something with the gameplay.

Now another thing that I've seen to notice. Ansem and Xemnas was shown in the trailer and looked like they were getting ready to fight Sora and Riku. Well, has anybody noticed that it could possibly connect with the word "Dream"? And no I don't mean as in Sora and Riku dreaming. I mean like it could be just illussions of Ansem and Xemnas.

So you think Ansem SoD and Xemnas are dreams themselves? That's an interesting theory. Square has done that before. Does anyone remember the dreams of the fayth in FFX? LOL

 

You definitely seem to be onto something.

 

Could "Dream" maybe have to do with Sora and Riku's dream to be Keyblade Masters? It makes me think of BbS. Then again, I doubt it'd be that simple. We probably won't understand the meaning until we play the game. -crosses fingers for a 2012 (or 2011) release date-

Well I agree with you in some ways my theory is:

Dream-Sora and Riku will be dreaming.

Drop-The game will allow players to jump really high and do new things.

Distance-Sora and Riku will be jumping, slyding, and flying to great, long, high, and far distances.

 

I really don't think tne title will relate to the gameplay at all. It's just as me and Strife said, the title of KH3D will have a relation to the plot of the game. Like with other KH titles.

 

@DenizenofTwilight, yes it seems like that way if you look at it. Plus, Ansem and Xemnas were defeated and became whole again. So there's no way they can just randomly come back.

Makes sense.

 

Dream - Something that has to do with Sora and Riku being their KH1 selves, Xemnas and Ansem, etc.

Drop - The whole falling Soras thing

Distance - Perhaps the fact that Sora and Riku are separate on their journies?

I agree with Twighlight Denizen of Darkness. And we could find out the meaning of the game as early as E311.

I think

 

Dream - Sora and Riku are sleeping in does pods.

 

Drop - What J.Severe said.

 

Distance - "the property created by the space between two objects or points" The definition of it. Idk why I put that. I just thought this has something to do about it.

it could be xemnas and ansom sod are lingering sentiments

it could be xemnas and ansom sod are lingering sentiments

 

I really don't see how Ansem SoD and Xemnas are lingering sentiments at all. Although, like I said before, they could just be illusions of the real Ansem and Xemnas.

The title could mean omething similar to 1 fails and the other passes like how terra failed and aqua passed, but for some reason the 1 in bbs was way shorter.

I dont think so. They need as much power as possible to get themselves ready for KH3.

well it would be cool if ven comes back and FINALLY takes the mark of mastery exam.

the only reason he didnt was because eraqus was afraid of his power and yen sid isnt so ya.

No it was because he was too young.

the only reason he didnt was because eraqus was afraid of his power and yen sid isnt so ya.

 

What Razor said, Ven was a little too young to have the M.O.M Exam. Plus, Ven didn't have too much training experience like Terra and Aqua did. So he wasn't fully ready to take it yet.

actually now that i think about it it was both cuz eraqus was afraid of him, and he was too young (not by a whole lot tho)

I'm inclined to believe it was more of his lack of experience. Besides, I had the impression that Master Eraqus hadn't known what Ven was until Ven confronted him. I think Xehanort was lying to Ven when he said Eraqus was afraid of him. If Eraqus had known, especially after he and Xehanort's fight years earlier, I think he would have tried to kill Ven a lot earlier. But I could be wrong.

 

Anyway, I do want Ven and Terra to officially become Masters. After their adventure, I think they're already at that status. Actually, I think Terra was all along. That's why he could perform the Rite of Succession on Riku. Eraqus only flunked him because he was so opposed to Darkness (and Xehanort set it up so Eraqus would play into his hands).

they were already both masters since they could use both light and darkness and if you actually PLAY the game then you would know that eraqus was afraid of him and knew what ven was that was the entire reason he tried to destroy him then after his battle with terra he realized his mistake of attacking his pupils.

if im not mistaken master eraqus did know what ven was really a part of thats why he always wanted ven in that world and not wandering off. he cared about his three pupils and didnt want them near harm. hence the main reason that he sent aqua out and told her to bring ven back that way he would not have any contact with vanitas thus stopping the merge of the x-blade.

ya kinda what i said

What about a dream where Sora and Riku can search in themselves for the people they are connected with ? I mean Terra and Eraqus probably are inside Riku's heart, And Sora have Ven and Roxas inside him,, as well as Xion's existence proof. What about some kind of mystical trip inside themselves, where Yen Sid goal will also be to look over Sora's and Riku's walktrough to give (or not) them the mark of mastery. It could reveal the darkness inside Sora as well, and oppose Riku and Sora as Riku will win the mark of mastery and Sora will not. Dropping Sora in his own darkness would make the distance betwen him and riku even bigger, wouldn't it ?

Dream Drop Distance- It probably means how deep/far you go into a slumber.

 

Once we figure out what the drop gauge is for, the title's meaning should become clear.

I agree with Soroxas I read in an interview it means The distance you fall in your dreams probably using English with Japanese grammatical structure.

 

To me it also sounds like a reference to the Awakening.

Well, it is said that there is a part of Terra within Riku. But it hasn't technically been proven. As for Eraqus, I think his heart is still inside Terra's body. Unless of course if Eraqus's heart somehow found his way into Riku's body through Ansem SoD or something similiar like that, then I don't believe Eraqus' heart is taking shelter within Riku.
