I have a feeling that while the secret ending will lead to KhIII directly, the next game won't be kingdom hearts III itself but rather something based on Sora's Journey, maybe even become a Keyblade master in the mean time. Hopefully they'll show more of saving Xion and the others, leaving Aqua, Ven and Terra for Kh III if they must.

btw sora doesn't have darkness in his heart

 

Yeah he does, those are the Princesses of Hearts you are thinking of. Squall (Leon) even says that there is darkness within every heart. Sora also states in KHII something along the lines of maybe the darkness is inside me. And in 3D there are scenes where Sora is almost taken by darkness. Ventus on the otherhand didn't have darkness in his heart when his heart was seperated into him and Vanitas but it has darkness in it again since Vanitas and Ventus joined together again I believe at the end of BBS.

 

Zack getting a bigger role would be, seeing any of that would be pretty awesome, really! But it's hard to say how Nomura will handle the Final Fantasy cast in the future... Especially now that we've been introduced to characters from another series of his. o.o

 

Well I think Zack might get a larger role due to the popularity of Crisis Core which was the highest selling PSP title for a bit. But I'm going to take a hunch and say Lightning from FFXIII or Nox will be in it due to him previously working on FFXIII Versus and he stated that he will use unused story ideas and game mechanics from that game for Kingdom Hearts. I think Star Ocean might be a good title to add if we are just going by Square Enix. Dragon Quest would stick more to old school tradition but I can't see many of those characters working in that universe. For comedy purposes Barrett would be a good choice. I also think The Warrior of Light would be a great choice story wise. Sephiroth and Cloud's relationship could be built upon. And Chaos the main antagonist of the first Final Fantasy would be a great villian to have as the orchestrator of everything.

I kind of agree with this because at the end of KHII and KHII FInal Mix we got Birth by Sleep secret endings yet, 358/2 Days and Coded came out before it.

Kairi's letter opened the door to light in the second game. Kairi has no darkness in her heart but remember Sora and Riku were trapped in the World of Darkness until they got her letter.

but the voiceover (who ever that is) said sora is the only person who can open the door to light

He just said open the door, he didn't say door to light though. He said, "You're the only one who can open the door." as Sora was being swallowed up by that black ooze stuff. It probably refered to the Door to Darkness within Kingdom Hearts in the first game since the Door to Light wasn't shown. Or it could be refering to something in the future. But eh time will tell.

Hmm... but now we have to make sure it's at least subtle, like in Kingdom Hearts II, there is clearly a story going on between Tifa, Sephiroth and Cloud, but it's not looked into very much, and kept very subtle until you fight Sephiroth yourself, because Kingdom Heart's main plot is generally the player's main concern, so they can't pack too much Final Fantasy/Star Ocean awesome into one KH game.. though I can see them continuing to expand on the cameo/ side story stuff in future titles!

I think they need to focus more on Square Enix titles now actually. I love the Disney Worlds but the story lines for the original movies have all pretty much been used. And they are running out of worlds of well known Disney movies to use. Almost all the classic Disney movies have been used and taken through all their movies. Unless you want to do Lion King 2 or Nightmare Before Christmas Oogie's Revenge. And we definitly can't go by Disney now except maybe Tangled. Who really wants a Good Luck Charlie world? I think they might need to expand on Square Enix's titles for new worlds as a lot of the Disney worlds have been used and they are running out of well known movies to use and part of the popularity of Kingdom Hearts was their use of well known movies. But who knows, they could create new stories for past Disney movies or something. Just NO. MORE. AGRAHBA.

He just said open the door, he didn't say door to light though. He said, "You're the only one who can open the door." as Sora was being swallowed up by that black ooze stuff.

Would be nice if they went back to their Jungle Book idea, and Tangled and The Princess and the Frog worlds would be absolutely wonderful if you ask me! What about Robin hood? Hmmm, Nomura did say he would consider Pixar movies, but he didn't really say much past that. Though, I do recall someone finding Woody and Buzz models from Kingdom Hearts II's garbage files, so they at least had some sort of plans to throw in Toy Story..

Jungle book was also a world in the coding of BBS. So you might be right. I think he will make new stories for Disney Worlds because Ursula is a boss in Destiny Islands in 3D and who the heck knows how she got there.

at the end of kingdom hearts 1 when he was running on the road.

 

I can't go my a forum thread but if you send me a video I'll check it out. You might be right man just hit me up with the URL.

Bah, I'm sure she was just a dream image of some sort, I mean, she is really random for the very first boss you fight but, the only explanation I have for her is that.. she's just another piece of the nightmare they start out on..

I don't know, the whole intro played out like a dream and nightmare, so seeing Ursula pop up suddenly is kind of fitting in that context...

plus I kinda of enjoyed her silly expressions in that battle.

Haha Ursula always just seems like an evil grandmother to me. I think its real because they don't enter the Realm of Sleep until Traverse Town I believe. Destiny Islands picks up from where Blank Points left off I believe. But Ursula did manage to go to Hollow Bastion so she might still be able to teleport to worlds. Idk this whole new game is confusing as anything.

Well I meant confusing in how the plot works exactly, there seems to be a lot of plot holes and things that go unexplained. But I won't know until a translation.

 

 

At the end of the game

YenSid: Yo Riku, you're a keyblade master

Sora: Dude that's awesome

Sora's head: " Gawd dammit! > http://kh13.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/smiley-neutral.png"

 

 

^ Actual Dialogue

They decided to add hip dialect to make them appeal to young people.

Alright man you're right I didn't remember that. I forgot about KH's Secret Ending. Then I'm not sure exactly because there are multiple instances when Sora shows darkness in his heart. He also has Vanitas in him and he is almost overtaken by Darkness in 3DDD so couldn't tell ya.

I hope the secret ending explains how xehanort remade the org in his image.

Like I said 3DDD seems to have a lot of plot holes and stuff but I haven't seen the game translated so I couldn't tell you. But if I know Nomora he isn't going to let us down.

yea and to me i think everyone from square-enix have completely forgotten about what that and this secret ending too. also to me i think they waited too long to make a kingdom hearts games because kingdom hearts 1 (2002) and it took them 3 or 4 years to make kingdom hearts2(2005 or 2006) then it took them another 2 or 3 years to remake kingdom hearts 1.5 or chain of membories to be on the PS2 (2008) etc...

so MX use sora's pride against him?

 

No, that's not what I meant. I meant during Terra's original exam at the beginning of the game. The blast of darkness from his hand? Not his. That was Xehanort.
