DDD HD Added Content Possibilities Discussion ( cutscenes)

[HarLea Quinn 26,501]

As some of you may know I made a thread when 2.8 was first announced regarding the possibility of finally getting the backstory in detail of the fall of the apprentices and how Isa and Lea fell . Since this backstory is in direct parallel to the events in 0.2 it made sense to suggest these cutscenes might be shown there. Now that we know the length of this is gonna be equivalent to one world this seems less likely even though it's still possible. We don't know if this one world length is referring to gameplay only or gameplay plus cutscenes. However, regardless this is disappointing.

 

Pondering this, another thought occurred to me. It's also been confirmed there is a possibility of new added extra content to DDDHD in 2.8. If this happens there could also be the possibility of added cutscenes similar to previous final mix versions since if there is gonna be a "final mix" version of DDD it only makes sense to add it to 2.8 whether they actually call it a final mix version or not.

 

If this happens, it is also possible to show these org members backstory flashbacks here. It's also possible we will have to wait until KH3 for this. It's also possible that this part of the story will never be shown and that's my biggest fear. It's one of the most asked questions fans still have. We deserve to know dammit! What are your thoughts on this?

I kinda hope they at the very least add contents to DDD because right now this title does not look very promising.

i hope HD is 3D's final mix so i hope they do add a cutscene and i hope they add new dream eaters like something similar to what they did for RE:com in 1.5 where if you watch all of the cutscenes in days it will add new keyblades and enemy cards. so for HD if you watch all of X back cover you can get chrithy in HD.

Yeah I really really hope they will make that $60.00 worth it.

I would be pissed too if they don't show this somewhere along the ways.

[Connected 978]

I hope they will add some new Cutscene's in. Like they did with ReMix Coded.

I personally don't think we'll be getting anything new in the game, it's just that the battle systems and gameplay itself need reworking. Since the game is being made by the KH3 team, it makes less sense to go back to an older engine for new cutscenes, but rather find a way to work them into the new games.

It's already been confirmed they might be adding new things. It's just a matter of what that might be. In regards to this whole question it's a matter of what do you feel is the most probable situation.

"Confirmed" and "might" basically cancel each other out =P. They might add new things, they might not. I'm thinking that since the gameplay overhaul is already intensive enough, anything new will be included in one of the other two games.Look at 2.5; even though some of those new scenes were only loosely connected to Re:Coded (like the scene with Young Xehanort and Braig), that's still where they were included because that's what they were using the engine for at the time.

I think that if they are going to do it, it will be in KH3.  It just makes sense that they would reveal big information in a numbered title.

I meant that they are confirming the possibility is there just to make that clear.They will already have to modify the cutscenes from the 3DS to a PS4 anyways so there's gonna be work regardless.

 

So basically you feel it will be in Kh3? Or possibly not at all ?

If there's anything at all to add, I feel like it would be in either X Back Cover or BBS 0.2, which are already going to be new anyway. I don't think there's any content they would feel like specifically including in DDD.And the 3DS to PS4 conversion might not be so bad; they actually used the same character models from the 3DS version for the HD Remixes on the PS3, so it's less of a step up.

I guess we shall see. So much is up in the air regarding this and I just hope we get to see something about this sooner than later. I would love if it was in 0.2.

[Tails 6,690]

Well, from a story standpoint I guess a few extra cutscenes would be nice. But from a gameplay standpoint, I honestly think they should add in more extra  optional bosses.  I'm sorry but as much as I loved how Square finally added in a optional boss that was a Disney character into th series, KH: DDD has to have the least amount of post game content out of all the KH games. And this would be a perfect, and I mean PERFECT opportunity to add in some extra bosses that weren't in the original 3DS version.

[Hero of Light XIV 2,381]

I'm definitely hoping for at least SOME new content in Dream Drop Distance HD. Be it through any cutscenes (doubtful at this point considering how Nomura said that there wouldn't really be anything different story wise), gameplay additions (hidden bosses, new minigames, new challenges, new commands, new abilities, ANYTHING!!), or additional cross content (unlocking a Chirity Dream Eater recipe after watching X Back Cover maybe? X exclusive Keyblades? An additional ending?). If anything though, I would be at the very least...content with DDD as it is but in HD, so long as it had reorchestrated music like KH1 and KH2 HD had, AND if DDD HD (HDDDD?) supported 3D TVs, I mean, it would make sense to have that option available. Despite what everyone is fretting over, I don't think this title will disappoint. 75% of it is new content, who cares how relatively short it is? It's enough to keep us busy for the year between it's release and KH3's, and Unchained X will help fill the void too.

Thing is - when it comes to what's going on with possible releases or titles Nomura is known to be vague or outright dubious lol. They said they weren't working on remaking what would turn out to be 1.5 and 2.5 either If whether he's possibly planning on surprising us again this time through a final mix version is kinda what I am talking about. Heck he said they didn't have plans to do what is now 0.2 and now look. Perfect example of what I mean. He loves to keep projects underwraps lol

I guess if nothing else, you can always rely on Nomura to be all flip-flopity when it comes to things he says. No eventually means yes, and if not, then it means maybe, which will eventually means yes, but not what you were expecting, lol.

 

Well, at the very least I hope it really does feel like a 3D Final Mix, because I have to admit once I completed the story and all the beefed up revived bosses and Julius, there wasn't much left for me. Hopefully they add some additional content that can beef the experience up by at least 1-3 hours. And like I said, REORCHESTRATED MUSIC PLEASE! O3O

I don't think they will add anything new in Dream Drop Distance, as much as I would love to get like an extra boss and some new cutscenes and have the enemy Dream Eaters re-colored like the Heartless and Unverised where in the Final Mixs of those games, I think this is going to be just a straight port style where they fix the gameplay up to work with the PS4 instead of a 3DS and maybe up the models and such.  As much as I would love to get an explanation on how they did become a part of all of this I don't think it would be in Dream Drop Distance, even though that would be the perfect place to put it, I think they will either put it in A Fragmentary Passage, or it could be included somewhat in Kingdom Hearts 3 with what Nomura said in a recent interview about 2.9 being a possibility, I would also like to know more about that Nightmare that came from Sora, even though there might not be that much more to say but still give us answer dammit!

 I would prefer it myself to be in 0.2

Hey if it being as long as a Disney world doesn't include the cutscenes then by all means at the sucker in

 

you just want to see Lea in the Kingdom Hearts 3 engine sooner then later don't you lol

Of course bwahaha!

Most of the money for 2.8 actually seems to be the KHChi Back Cover cutscenes. When Nomura said that 0.2 would be the length of one Disney world he did not say that "cutscenes" were in that equation. Lea and Isa backstories can easily transpire during Birth By Sleep Volume 2.

[Karasu3 135]

Yeah I really really hope they will make that $60.00 worth it.

[Henne 150]

They should try to explain a bit of DDD's stuff better. Yen Sid could tell us a bit more or something like that.
