I want things to be more intense and in stakes I mean.....Xehanort(and his new Organization) needs to be more sinister and evil than he already is and I want him to cause a huge loss to Sora and his friends so  the player will be even more motivated to kill him

 

Y'know...an act that makes you say "This son of a bitch needs to die"....the things that made us love to hate villains like Kefka,Golbez(when he was evil before Zeromus appeared) and other great villains

 

 

like destroying a world or two and make them fall into the darkness halfway through the game....or killing a character..(how about having Saix destroy his friend LeaAxel before you fight him),I want something that makes me look forward to fight the main villains and destroy them

 

 

and inb4 comments like "eww you cruel bloodthrust KH doesn't need death every character should live",give me a freakin break and please for the love of God try to play some other RPGs.Storytelling doesn't always work like this.This isn't Dragonball Z this is Kingdom Hearts.Even Disney movies have some of their characters die like Mufasa from Lion King.

 

Why should feel intimidated by Xehanort when the only dude on his small killstreak is ONE GUY(and no he is dead and he should stay dead not be brought back to life ....EVER) in terms of what he's done to the main characters

 

 

 

The only character that has an actual reason to destroy Xehanort outside the usual(save the worlduniverse) goal is Terra

 

I want Xehanort to hurt Sora and Riku,to give them another reason to destroy him and his new reformed Organization XIII.

 

Sora in particular needs to feel pain,which is why I loved the scenes in KH3D's version of the World That Never Was,where Roxas shared his pain and memories with Sora and when Sora saw Xion,Terra and Aqua....etc.Y'know....that thing that's called CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!Cuz really Nomura didn't give us enough time to spend with Sora as we didn't even see his full story while we saw the full stories of supporting characters like the BBS trio,Roxas,Axel and Xion, the BBS trio in particular got waaay more attention and importance than necessary as if their actions and accomplishments are way more important than main characters like sora and riku.

 

 

It's time for the KH series to evolve and learn from the story telling of other JRPGs around it.Look I love and adore this series to death I really do,but it's not what I can call the best plot in a video game like what I used to say years ago

 

I've played a lot of other JRPGs,both ones made by Square and ones not made by Square,and learned more about how a story can be told in a JRPG.Nomura should really try and play other RPGs like Shin Megami Tensei,Xenoblade,Fire Emblem,heck even the series he designed characters for which is Final Fantasy like FFVI,FFVII.....etc,see what those games did right,avoid the things they did wrong.Take the good things you found from them and apply it to KH in your style.

 

When I mention death I don't mean "gory mortal kombatAttack on Titan" type of death.I mean one of the many basics of writing an epic.

 

A story should have a character feels the weight of his losses(with good writing not emoing and mopping),have the character feels the big responsibility of his mission,and should have a motivation for said character to oppose the villain more than just your basic(he's evil,defeat him and save the world...BAM PEACE)

 

 

oh boy I can already sense the upcoming rants in the posts but hey at least I managed to get my thoughts out after keeping them for so long.

 

Also,please do yourself a favor and don't miss out on other great RPGs out there like the main Shin Megami Tensei series,Persona,Xenoblade,Skies of Arcadia,Fire Emblem,Chrono Trigger,Secret of Mana,Earthbound,Suikoden ,Breath of Fire,Bravely Default,Terranigma,Illusion of Gaia heck even things like the Paper Mario series and the Mario & Luigi RPG series :smile:.Expose yourself to as many kinds of story telling in JRPGs and trust me you'll find something among those that's as awesome as KH if not maybe more.

 

 

Aand with that I end my long rambling.....

Did YOU read everything I said? Where did I imply that you were saying everyone should die or shouldn't interact?

 

Anyway, I'm agreeing that death could work in KH3. What I'm saying is that the characters need to interact a lot more than they have in past games for a death told be truly meaningful and even then if it happens too late in the KH3 it won't gives us enough time to really grieve WHILE we're still playing the game. Otherwise, they might as well use something other than death.

That's what I meant from the beginning and I agree with you here

By they you mean who?the BBS trio?No I mean Sora and Riku,the BBS trio can go and f*** themselves I'm not focusing on them

 

So.....you want the series to be Disney's version of Dragon Ball Z where characters death means jackshit?Look I love DBZ but even that had it's share of bullshit and this is one of them

 

No matter how many times I explain you'll never understand me but rather understand an incorrect interpetation of what I want to say

 

Kingdom Hearts isn't just Disney.....it's Disney AND Square Enix.....I want the Square stuff to be more than just cameos,I want it be part of the writing and I also want FF characters to do something rather than just standing there and being a pretty cameo

 

 

All of what I've said are basics of story-telling in almost every JRPG......Nomura when he ignored those basics the series has suffered as a result,look no matter how much we love the series we have to admit that the plot suffers from some flaws that caused by some of the unnecessary rules

 

I don't care if Disney doesn't do death anymore,it was part of their old fairy tales and it's a basic when telling an epic.

 

Why should I fear Xehanort when he can't kill a single person or make sacrifices for his goal?As diabolical as he is.Xehanort is low tier compared to someone like Kefka or Golbez

I also mention Sora, Riku, and Lea's reasons Seems like you're the one only seeing what they want to. I've played other JRPG's, in fact they make of the majority of my collection and major heroes rarely die.It's more common with Square, but it's not all that common across the board. Disney owns 70% of KH, the only thing Square own are the FF characters, and possibly original world and it's modern Disney that tells Square what they can and can't do with their contends in KH.  Fear and hate are two different emotions, you don't have to fear someone tho hate them. Yeah there are some unnecessary rules, but a character's death isn't going to cancel them out. If a character is going to die, it needs to be imperative to the story, not just for shock value or to make the characters want revenge. If it's going to happen it needs to be in a situation where  the groups only way out is for one of them to die.
