Square removed it! D= Dammit!

 

Also, I have a question for the site's team. Why isn't the trailer from the English site on here? It has some scenes we haven't seen.

 

because there is no English trailers yet.

 

CONFIRMED: Cyberman65 said on Friday he will livestream the game and the unboxing on Friday afternoon live on Justin.tv. I would follow his channel for updates, as he was the first one to do the BBS, Days, and Re: coded playthroughs online. If you don't believe me, then it's your loss not mine. I can't wait, hopefully it'll be high quality like always! :)

 

That doesn't mean there won't be videos, but they won't be HQ or playthroughs. He's doing the whole thing. Usually after he's done with the playthroughs he puts them on YouTube. Be prepared!

 

i want to watch the unboxing lol so im guessing you are gonna make a thread or give the link to it in a status update or something on that day when its close to it lol

Will you be able to trade your current 3ds for the one in the bundle if you get the bundle?

 

You'll probably just have to trade it in unfortunately and buy the new one and spend a little more money

Hakuna Matata, its no big, I'm a patient person. So why are we bein forced to switch between Riku/Sora? it doesn't acomplish anythin, they should've allowed us to fully alternate between Riku/Sora like we did in BBS with Aqua/Terra/Ven.

Fine! Wait until tomorrow. You also have to give him time. LOL! It's fine though.

ill find it a lot more challanging, plus as i see you can upgrade your character during those drops(switch), i personally loved BBS but i think i'd love this too, as it s makes every single KH game unique.

Well I'll try anything once, I've yet to purchase a 3ds, perhaps once I start working I'll trade my DS in at Game Stop, once I hear a release date though.

...um, b/c nothing new has been....uploaded or said yet?

 

because there is no English trailers yet.

I know there are no English trailers yet, but if you click for any European country on the site, there's a trailer that has many scenes we've seen but also some that we haven't.

Like what? And are they in Japanese?

Yeah they are in japanese but in the beginning of the trailer it says something along the lines of "The following game will have text in the English language" (for the UK version of the site) And one example is Sora possibly meeting Rhyme for the first time and she just says "Huh?" A lot of the scenes we've seen, but I think it's an interesting trailer. Oh, and the UK trailer has the rating of it being Pegi 12

Sorry to ruin it for you. But every trailer on the site said that it would have English text in the final version and I think in the short JF trailer Rhyme says the same thing. The PEGI 12 thing isn't new either...

In this time of information gathering, especially from a variety of sources, many KH sites (okay, I'm going to be honest, this is directed right at KH13 and KHInsider) will leech information off one another and 'demand' credit when they themselves found the information from a third party. Best practice is still to site from the source - not from where or who you heard it from, but from where -they- heard it from, if they are not the source. (I'm going to admit, sometimes the source -is- a member on one of these sites, and they're either or translator, in some cases, or just recently a friend of another fan, passing out information such as when their friend is going to be streaming.) But if this information can be found OUTSIDE your fan site PRIOR to your posting it, do not be so arrogant to treat yourself as the source when you are, in fact, not.

 

That said, just be mature guys. We all just want information. Many of us have several tabs open that we're refreshing. Many of us will find news within seconds of each other. We're all capable of using Google and stalking forums of other sites we're not members of (or no longer members of). It is not such a terribly large deal to me where information comes from and they last thing we need is a 'he said she said that he over there said that him over there found this information from such and such's twitter'. Just site the original person's twitter, for crying out loud. The middlemen do not need credit. Stop being so big of yourself to think that you do if you are a middleman. If you aren't sure of the source of information, and all you have is another person's mention of it, then cite the person who mentioned the information - who from what site.

 

I am not -personally- a member on KHInsider, because back in the day that I was, I was constantly getting my theories trashed and some of them ended up legit and I laughed it off. But the damage was done. A small handful of people ruined the whole site for me. It's a different community with different leaders with slightly different perspectives and levels of rule enforcement. But I still respect KHInsider, and I was using it as my main source of information long before KH13 existed. But I am no longer a member and when the site was changing hands among the staff, that's when I found out about KH13 and began using KH13 instead ever since. Whatever your reasoning for not being an active member on both forums, remember that if you have a 'problem' with the other site, you really just have a problem with an individual or a group of individuals and there are a LARGE number of other innocent forum goes that you do not need to disrespect in the process of having an apparent 'issue' with the other site. Just be respectful of the other fan sites and eventually they'll do it back, one member at a time.

 

In summary: Cite your sources, not who brought it to your attention. If you can't trace it back to the origin, it is OKAY to cite another forum as a source:

 

Who from where said 'such and such' - isn't that cool? I hope so.

 

But stop with the snark about needing credit if you are NOT the only possible source of information. So what if you are the friend of your source? Are you the only friend your source has? The only friend your source has told this information? And so, yes, we may have gotten information from you or we may have gotten it from our mutual friendship with said source. We'll be sure to specify from now on. Thanks for being mature and not assuming things. A friendly reminder is not a snarky one.

 

I'm not here nor there about any specific incident. It just needs to stop happening. Our relationship with other forums is kind of tenuous and it doesn't need to be.

Dang it, the video I linked to (that was definitely not my doing, by the way) got removed. So, even though it might well have been fake, it was "close enough" to the real deal to make SquareEnix upset enough to remove the video. Hm, nice. I wonder what they'll do once EVERYONE gets their hands on the game. Surely, the outstanding amount of videos uploaded will be nearly impossible to stop.

is this the one you are referring too?

anyone know why theres no video on youtube

 

I don't think they're allowed to. I mean I guess they're not allowed to in the first place but I'm pretty sure I heard somewhere that if you're caught uploading videos/streaming before the official release date you get in big trouble.
