maybe I'm getting ahead of myself but it seems like once KH3 releases and they make more games(they have said there will be more games, just not with Xehanort) it's going to be the hardest thing ever to make a good story for.
(some KH3D spoilers follow)
I mean, they have built Xehanort up as an extremely cunning devious and intelligent villain, we are talking about a man who has used time travel to plan ahead for his own heartless and nobody's defeat and use his greatest enemy as his greatest tool for getting kingdom hearts.
it just doesn't seem like they can top him as a villain without it feeling like a deus ex machina to have the plot continued, and they would have to create a new villain to use. the most dangerous Disney character i can think of is Chernabog but they already ruled him out by putting him in the most pointless boss battle ever in kingdom hearts 1. maleficent wold just feel stupid, I mean would anyone be afraid of her as a villain at this point? we've already beaten her once and she got piratically beaten by the nobody alone of Xehanort. the only disney villain i can think of that would come close to being a suitable replacement is the phantom blot. and no I'm not talking about his epic mickey interpretation, I mean his original comic/TV show form.(here is the Disney wiki page about him http://disney.wikia.com/wiki/The_Phantom_Blot) he's got the cunning and ruthlessness they could use, but at the same time, he can't top xehanort or go against this many keyblade wielders.
It just feels like they set the bar too high for villains that anyone lower would feel like a complete whimp and anyone higher would just feel ridiculous and forced(though that's not describing it right, I don't know how to phrase it well enough)
