Ever since Critical Mode was introduced in KH2FM, it has been a difficulty setting in every new KH game to be released. I am hoping that Square Enix introduces a new difficulty setting in KH3 that is much harder than critical mode but i don't know how this would be implemented. Any thoughts?

It wasn't a difficulty setting in Re:CoM, the original version of BBS, or 358/2 Days

But I'm guessing Beginner Standard Proud and Critical will be there as usual. Not much point in having a new difficulty setting, unless it's going to be a weird one like Heaven and Hell from DMC

Kingdom Hearts III Leaked Difficulty List

 

Beginner: "Come on, Sora. I thought you were stronger than that."

Standard: "This boat runs on happy faces."

Proud: "We may never meet again, but we'll never forget each other."

Critical: "Who else will I have ice cream with?"

Severe: "Roxas, that's a stick."

The only thing I ever want is that Critical difficulty is unlocked since the beggining of the game. It's not like I won't play it more than one time (I will probably play it until the disc burns) But I find ridiculous that in 3D you had to complete it once to unlock Critical....

 

Since I first played 2FM long ago, I only play kh games in Critical, to the point that anything below that looks pathetically insulting from me (''Did I just survive a single attack from Xemnas with more than 1HP?? What kind o bull**** is this???'') so I really expect I am not ''forced'' to play kh in a way i strongly dislike

Well, I don't know about a higher difficulty, I'm not opposed to one, but it won't affect me since I only play Standard (having to do so much to unlock a secret ending is quite fulfilling, if a bit frustrating at times) But I did like the difficulty spinner in Re:Coded, I'd like to see something similar implemented in KH III somehow.

A mode higher than Critical sounds...like overdoing it. I already have enough trouble with Standard in some games and even Easy catches me offguard. I mean, its not like I ever PLAY the hardest modes. But that's just overdoing it a wee bit since it really isn't that easy of a video game series. 

 

Plus, this is the end of the saga. It has to be the most difficult adventure yet. The most difficult KH game on a difficulty mode higher than Critical? Yeah no thank you. 

they should do a demyx mode where it's all chill and you're like 10/10 for relaxing vibes

OMG... SEVERE KILLED ME XDDDDD

Well it is the most challenging difficulty after all

How about a new difficulty mode called Baby?  Whatever amount of damage Sora receives from any enemy, it's always 1 HP!  And the amount of damage Sora gives out is always instant kill, except for bosses, who require a whopping 5 hits to defeat!

i played kingdom hearts 2.5 critical and everything kills you one hit and what doesn't kills you in two a harder having a harder difficult will do what? let them kill you with there minds

So what would a difficulty beyond Critical even be?

A quarter of the normal health you get, you deal half as much damage, and take eight times as much?

No need to add another difficulty level just don't make critical mode an unlockable thing like they did with 3D
