Nomura gave them a costume change later in production, but those costumes are important to the plot!

And yet, beforehand, he even said that them being in their KH1 forms was 'vital to the plot'

but why the change/..how do they affect the story?...or is it bcs in KH2 outfitis they don'y have the sigil???

They are in their kh1 forms ... just with different cloths.

I don't get what being younger had to do with the plot, why couldn't sora and Riku have their appearance from KH2 but with the clothes nomura wanted with the sigil and dream eater symbol

maybe it is bcs in that form they have no knowledge of the keyblade...yen sid said that they must remaster everything they knew of the keyblade so to do this they must do it from the first time they encountered the keyblade...I think so

You guys are all missing the point. Both of the new costumes were important to the story. What was going to happen BEFORE the change?

nomura knows that :SS...from the point of how you've written it,it lets you think like how we've replied

Nomura was still going to put a big X on Sora's KH1 outfit and a spirit symbol on Riku's KH1 outfit?

 

Sora: Hey, what's this big X on my shirt? Oh well......where's Riku?

 

Riku: *Doesn't notice symbol on back for obvious reasons*

Didn't Sora and Riku go back in time to when destiny islands was about to go to sleep so they had to be in kh1 forms?

It becomes clear why when you play the game why they're younger. It's sort of a mind firetruck. I'd say why, but I don't know how to make a spoilers tag

I've beaten the game but I'm still not sure why they just cant be in their older form

like when sora was older in his dream

no..it was just a dream...the hole game is a dream

But the dream is set back during when the Destiny Islands where being consumed by Darkness, so Sora and Riku both are back to their KH1 ages. (14 & 15)

It's seriously not that complicated people. Nor is it that important.

On the OP though, I guess the plot point of the outfits just wasn't there or thouht up yet. I do kinda like Soras outfit. Hell, I like Rikus outfit too, but it would've been cool to have Riku in his KH1 clothes. (I hate Sora's original outfit)

riku and sora went back in time and after they left DI then riku went into soras dreams

I don't like their new Clothes....... and I don't get it..... Is necessary to Yen Sid makes the guys, be youngs again to pass de MoM?

They had to forget everything they knew about the keyblade they first learned about it back when they were younger

Yeah. It's not Yen Sids fault that these guys (and Kairi) aged 5 years withen 1.

riku and sora went back in time and after they left DI then riku went into soras dreams

 

if they would have gotten back in time then DI would have been destoryed,bcs events of the past cannot be changed and the fight with Ursula wouldn't happen and even Sora wouldn't have said "You again" or smth like that...so he remembers her and even says "is this the test?"....it's a dream not a travel in the past

Did you not get to the end of the game cause they explain this in the end

I don't have the game at all ...I only know about the game at the moment from spoilers

oh lol okay. Is it okay if I spoile it abit then?

I'm pretty sure the reason why is because he went into his dream while during the game he went back in time so he had to be younger. So if Nomura had taken out the time-traveling-sabotage, then Sora and Riku would have taken the exam in the sleeping world in their normal forms

I think Xeahnort gave Riku and Sora the costume change, that way they could keep an eye on Sora. Yen Sid had nothing to do with it.

my opinions:

 

why young:

because of the test

 

why different clothes:

Sora got his new clothes with the X on his chest from Xehanort to be able to follow Sora everywhere

Riku got his new clothes together with the Spirit symbol on his back because he is Sora's Dream Eater

I can understand that it's because of the test they appear as their younger selfs. But still I think they should have stayed as they are, especially since their voice actors have matured.

They should've kept the kh2 outfits.
