Posted January 22, 201411 yr So Nomura said that 2.5 is going to be even more polished than 1.5 was since the process is going a lot smoother. Does anyone think that could include replacing most, if not all of the fish faces with actual animated ones for KH2?I really hope so. Edited January 22, 201411 yr by King.Mickey
January 22, 201411 yr Author I hope so. But I doubt it. Square is lazy. True, but they did it with BBSFM. Not with all of them, but a pretty good amount. And I really can't think of any other possible explanation to what he meant by "more" polished.
January 22, 201411 yr No chance. A lot of time (and money) goes into animating, and not just the faces. They'd have to animate the bodies to match, too. Plus considering that they didn't do the same for 1.5, I doubt it's much of a priority. It's alright though because the worst of it was in KH1, anyway. Edited January 22, 201411 yr by Kaweebo
January 22, 201411 yr Nope. Keep dreaming guys. No animators for that. And a waste of time since they are not a big deal. Not many PS2 games had 3d low poly faces.
January 23, 201411 yr Author Nope. Keep dreaming guys. No animators for that. And a waste of time since they are not a big deal. Not many PS2 games had 3d low poly faces. They're making a completely new scene that bridges the gap between KH2 and KH3D.If I'm not mistaken, that requires animators.
January 26, 201411 yr But, but, I like the fish faces D: especially the one of Saix when he says: "Are you angry? Do you hate me?" That face was epic
January 29, 201411 yr They're making a completely new scene that bridges the gap between KH2 and KH3D.If I'm not mistaken, that requires animators. Uh, when did they say this? As awesome as that sounds and as much as i want to believe it, that doesn't seem likely.

January 30, 201411 yr Fish Faces are ok, they are funny but in an HD remaster they shouldn't be in important cutscenes like in KH 1.5 (just to give an example: Nerverland in KH 1.5 sometimes even Peter looked updated and Sora was not!) The ONLY exception is the famous fish face of Saix because it's hilarious
February 4, 201411 yr FISH FACES FTW I really don't mind actually, as long as they don't put fish faces, where they weren't before
February 4, 201411 yr I don't pay attention to characters' faces that much while watching cutscenes, so it doesn't matter to me.
February 4, 201411 yr Well, they weren't as bad as they were in Kingdom Hearts 1 (Kairis fish face still gives me nightmares ;_; ). I wouldn't mind if they updated them, but I doubt they will do so ( they didn't update them in 1.5, right?). Edited February 4, 201411 yr by MeRoXas
