like seriously, the more games they put out the more time is taken way from kh3! i remember a special someone saying that they didn't want to put multiplayer in KHBBS because it would take time from kh3.......BULL CRAP, if they could make and new game and a new movie, then they could have done that and we could have played that until KH3. they also could have just put 3D with KH3 in one game, but worked on 3D after KH3 was done. i'm starting to believe 2.9 is a thing now because that would be the next thing: putting all the game on ps4 for 2017. i mean i get that he is trying to keep his promise to us and make a KH game every year but, i want kh3 more and i want to play KH3 before i'm 20

 

#DON'TLETTHEDREAMDROP

If anything this is good news. Don't bash on 2.8. BBSV2 was bound to happen at some stage and this is going to give us a taste of KH3 while we wait. If you really think about it, Kingdom Hearts III will release in 2017, which is just over a year away. It isn't THAT long away. I'm sure you'll survive without it. We have all been doing the same since it was announced. I haven't played Dream Drop Distance though, so my view is slightly biased since I do have something interesting to take aay from this collection. 

Though I would be a little mad if they announce a Kingdom Hearts 2.9 to come out in 2017 we have to remember that they do have an internal release date for Kingdom Hearts 3 that they are trying to get to, now we don't know if that has changed or not. I'm excited for 2.8 getting to play Dream Drop Distance on a TV and for the other stuff in the collection as well.  Don't forget we also have Unchained coming out this year, unless for some reason it doesn't and it releases next year before 2.8 but I don't think that will be the case, it shouldn't be that hard to translate a mobile game.  It doesn't please me that 2.8 is being developed along side Kingdom Hearts 3 but that means that they are working on both tittles and we don't know how they are split up I'm sure the majority of the team is working on Kingdom Hearts 3 while the other team is working on 2.8

Stop making more KH games? Wtf? Have you gone mad?

 

As if any of this would delay KH3, it's just very far away from being finished.

Ah another one of these threads.

 

Honestly, I don't see what the problem is with KH 2.8. Given that KH3D wasn't included in 1.5 or 2.5 and its importance towards the story, we knew it was going to be remastered. This complaint about it also being on the PS4 seems incredibly moot as well, because we know you need a PS4 (or Xbone) for KH3. It's been two years since KH3 was confirmed and 2.8 is out next year so that has been and still is plenty time to save up for a PS4 if you are that desperate to enjoy the games. I've never seen such an outcry towards a Kingdom Hearts game being announced and in all honesty, it is nothing but petty incentive whining. Nomura and his team want to give us a KH game each year and if you think that is milking the series then fine, each to their own, but why feel the need to tell Square to stop making games? Others are quite happy with this, I personally can't wait to play 2.8.

 

I don't believe 2.8 is affecting KH3's development by a lot, we've been told countless times that KH3 is going smoothly. We all know the story of how two programmers pretty much did the work on the previous HD collection (I can't recall if it were 1.5/2.5 or both..). KH3D will have a few control re-mappings like BbS, X Back Cover by the sounds of it is far shorter than Days/Re:coded and Birth by Sleep 0.2 is only the length of a single world so it might as well be a demo for KH3.

And for 2.5 he said 67 people on the KH3 team were working on 2.5. 

 

Back to main topic

 

KH3D, 1.5, 2.5, 2.8 all developed by the KH3 team while KH3 has been in development. Versus XIII started development in 2006 and was cancelled in 2012. Nomura's a poor project manager, plain and simple. Amazing artist, poor project manager.

i'm saying they are having a hard time with the jump too. a LOT of people have ps3 now because they are cheaper and old but the ps4 is still new, so expecting fans to have a ps4 or xbox one because they know kh3 will be on it is a bit much, they should start saving and thinking about it but already having one or easily getting one is a bit much. and it breaks up the 1.5 and 2.5 thing

The series had to move on to the next generation at some point and this is that point. It's been two years since Kingdom Hearts 3 has been announced to release on PS4 and Xbox One. They had plenty of time in those two years to save up money and they still have time to save up since KH3 will undoubtedly release in 2017. What's 'a bit much' with having a PS4 or Xbox One? They're the next generation of game consoles. There's nothing bad with having one or both of them.

 

Kingdom Hearts 3 was announced in 2013, before 1.5 came out. Since 2013, we've known that we were going to get a PS4 anyway. So it doesn't 'break up' the 1.5 and 2.5.

Worst opinions toward a KH game have occurred. This includes why KH Re:coded was made when people wanted a KH game that wasn't a spin-off.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhh mmmmmmmmmmmyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy GOSH, actually read what is said people! not once did i bash 2.8 nor bbs 0.2 all i said was they could have did it better and i personally do want to play it but like i said they are not giving kh3 their 100%. plus we didn't know that it was going to be remastered, he said he was going to do something but he didn't know what. ok maybe u don't have a hard time making money for a ps4 or xbox one but other people might like i said here " i'm saying they are having a hard time with the jump too. a LOT of people have ps3 now because they are cheaper and old but the ps4 is still new, so expecting fans to have a ps4 or xbox one because they know kh3 will be on it is a bit much, they should start saving and thinking about it but already having one or easily getting one is a bit much. and it breaks up the 1.5 and 2.5 thing" and i doesn't help if some people have to buy a PS3 to play 1.5 and 2,5 then go and buy a $400 console for 2.8 and KH3 which are $60 games (i've seen a lot of that on the forums). never did I ONCE SAY THEY WHERE MILKING THE SERIES i said they where delaying kh3. i know how much time and effort it takes to make a game, i'm going to school for that but what they said was, they weren't going to make a new KH game before 3 and they also said they weren't going to unnecessarily delay 3 with new a multi for BBS, but it if that is going to delay 3 and not 3 new games and a movie i don't know what is. i rather have them focus on KH3 then after release all this stuff so we won't be left to dry then. i'm a patent man but its what they have said and what they have done thats bothers me.

kh3 is not coming out in 2017, i would be on cloud 9 if it did but he said that if it did that would be the earliest

I'm confused; 2.8 has an HD remaster of a game fans have been practically demanding, important story cutscenes from a separate mobile game so you don't have to play it to keep up with the plot, and a brand new level with implied features from the most anticipated game in the franchise starring one of the fan favorite characters (not to mention an actual PS4 exclusive, which are in such short supply).

 

How is this anything but great for the fans?

And for 2.5 he said 67 people on the KH3 team were working on 2.5.

Because once again they didn't outsource the remaster/s and make "movies" that take up a lot of resources for what isn't exactly your typical AAA sized team.

It is BBS Volume 2.

Yeah, but it's for a remaster that most fans have been asking for and a movie that is supposedly integral to the plot, and a lot of people don't want to or can't play a mobile game just for that bit of plot. They wouldn't waste time developing it if there wasn't demand for it.

I'm talking about across all 3 collections. They could easily have outsourced them, additionally putting the first two on PS3 only was stupid when they had the PS4 dev kits before announcement.

Mr. Fantastic and Plastic Man would be proud cause you are just stretching it at this point.

Fair point, but a little off topic- I'm just referring to 2.8.

 

Also, I can see why they wouldn't necessarily want to develop PS4 versions at the same time- it's a new console with new hardware, so maybe they didn't want to risk porting these games to that and instead stick with hardware that they've been used to for years. Plus correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't there licensing issues with the Utada songs that make PS4 versions difficult to make? They may have just not wanted to bother.

None of us know when KH3's coming out, 2017 is pretty much a lot of people's guess, although it looks very likely, and Nomura already has the release date of KH3 decided, so I have no worry.

You must realize that at some point, companies are going to stop making PS3 games, right? The PS4's been out for a while now, and companies likely want to make use of the growing use base for the new console that has a lot more life in it than the older one. I mean, you might as well bitch about KH3 not being on PS3.

Well they were already using PS4 and Xbox One at the time for KH3 and that team hadn't touched PS3 or 360.

Nomura is just releasing these games to keep his promise on releasing a title every year, which is better than having three years of waiting with no KH game whatsoever. Besides, there isn't a new game here in 2.8, it's just a bunch of a remaster with a stupid small episode added with it in addition to a movie.  

Everything got ruined the moment he added Birth by Sleep on II.5, which made the meaning of "two and half meaningless" without 3D but just because 3D was a fresh game back then, he added BBS instead and the whole collection and order of the titles got complexed. We don't have a choice anyways and even if II.9 was real with all the games together in one collection, it would be better than spreading the games to an incorrect order like what happened with II.5 and II.8

boi i know i was there, but i guess i have to get prof. I know they had to stop with the ps3, the ps3 is going to be obsolete in 2 or 3 years and i thought the transition to next gen was going to be 3, but they can't say that they are going to have all the titles on one system to prepare u for 3 and then put KH 2.8 on ps4, they should have just put 1.5 and 2.5 on ps4 anyways.

So what if 2.8 is coming out on PS4 instead of 3? Kingdom Hearts 3, as you said, is releasing on PS4. So again, someone who was going to play KH3 would have a PS4 anyway.

i know that! .................... i think my main problem with this is that they say something and then do the opposite. nomura said the remakes were going to be all on one system, well last time i checked 1.5 and 2.5 are not on ps4 and same goes for 2.8. it makes sense for 2.8 to be on ps4 but he released 1.5 and 2.5 on ps3 then said they were all going to be on it except for KH3.

apparently Sora96 might have said the 2017 thing in the interview
