So, I've been playing FFVI lately, great game. And one of it's plot elements gives me an idea bout what should happen in KH3. I guess you could say this is a spoiler for FFVI, but I think a lot of people probably already know about it anyway. So if you know nothing about FFVI and want to play it, well I guess don't read this, haha.
My idea for KH3 comes from the point where Kefka changes the World of Balance into the World of Ruin. Imagine something like that happening in KH3! Like, around halfway through the game, Xehanort succeeds in obtaining Kingdom Hearts, but he also does something that plunges all the worlds into the Realm of Darkness. And after that, every world you visit, Disney or not, is heavily damaged, its residents are scattered and confused, and the heartless run rampant everywhere.
Think of all the ways this would be effective!
It would be the first time Xehanort's actions would have universal consequences. Like he's caused the destruction of a few worlds in the past, but this time it would effect EVERY world. Perhaps this could even lead to a point where he regrets his actions and we could see some emotional conflict in him. But maybe just not before Sora and co. tear him a new one.
It would work for the storylines of each individual worlds. Like in many KH games, it feels like the main characters just go to the Disney worlds, learn a lesson of friendship or some crap that has little to do with the actual story, and then go on with their business. It would work here as each world Sora visits would need his help to undo the damage and regain control. It would be so much more than just "oh hi..... okay see ya later". And once he finishes this, there can be one huge final confrontation with Xehanort.
Gameplay wise, it would work as it would explain the game getting more difficult as you went on. I want a challenge in KH3, and this is a perfect opportunity for them to make the gameplay challenging in a way that works with the story.
So do you guys think this would work? I'm interested to hear your thoughts.
