I think it's safe to say we'll see a Frozen world, unless he just loves rehashing how much he loves the world. I enjoyed the interview, but the moment it got to the questions about KHIII worlds, I felt like I knew exactly what he would say there.

 

 

I just realised there's probably going to be a trophy for S-ranking all the gummi missions.

 

Shit.

 

 

Have you ever seen any of the videos with the ultimate gummi ships? It takes a little work still, but that shouldn't be a problem as long as the mechanics still work around the same.

Right? In every interview I've read/watched with the Yasue, he always mentions Frozen.

Did they not receive any feedback for the difficulty trophies not stacking? I really hope they would change that in 2.5. :P

Loved this interview :) I just hate when they ask him if they're going to make an HD version of DDD when like few paragraphs later they ask about the development of KH3 and it not being shown at this year's E3. He must feel so pressured. The fans are real hypocrites. I don't mind what they decide to do. If they want to go with a certain thing then let them. I wouldn't mind if they made the HD version or not- all I have to say is that they are doing a fantastic job. 1.5 came out really good and I know 2.5 is going to be even greater. The KH3 trailer made me go berserk (in a positive way lol) and am happy enough for them making all the old KH games remade in HD just for Playstation 3. We don't need a PS4/Xbox/Vita re-release. What's done is done and re-releasing the games wouldn't make much of a difference. If you want to play them, get a PS3. You have plenty of time. But ya, hope they don't rush. Rushing alone could put 2.5 and 3 in a bad state D: I'm glad they made 2.5 a later date- it tells you they're doing they best they can to make the HD bundle a great experience. Same for 3. :) Those trophies though... Trophy for being Anti-Sora certain amount of times? AHHH

I do agree for the most part, but I will say that the reason they are on PS3 currently is that many people have one. Personally, wouldn't mind a Vita version though as it may possibly be easier than PS4 (plus portable). The biggest problem is that there are a few people such as myself who can't exactly afford to get both a PS3 and PS4, as there are other things that money could go towards. Personally, I'm in a weird transitioning point in my life. Now, I'm not upset if it never comes past PS3, but it sure would be nice! It'll just take me longer to get to KH3

Hmm. Development on Kingdom Hearts III has to move quickly huh? Seems like they at least have an internal goal as to when they want it released.

Re:DDD is actually very possible. They need to put the mark of mastery scene in it.

I highly doubt they will leave this out. Or it could just link then to 3DS

 

I think what's most exciting here is the amount of trophies. I just hope difficulty trophies stack.

I actually don't think so even for BBS they need to change there something about difficulties.

I think Nomura want to replay us the stories after a time.

PS3 last gen entitled owner much? PS3 is nearing it's last leg of life. Square is only releasing the HD collections on there because they had planned way before Sony started sending out sdks for PS4.

 

All signs point to a DDD HD release. All signs point to PS4/Vita re-release. Maybe an Xbox/PC as well. And no PS Now is NOT a good alternative for many reasons. (That and the Utada songs restrict it from being a PSN title anyway)

I know how to make those; it's the EX missions (FM-exclusive) I'm talking about. Specifically the ones that force you to use one of the pre-made ships (like the one I linked to) - those took me hours to do, considering said ships generally aren't optimised for shooting the crap out of everything.

Ohhh, I totally didn't realize there were FM missions that were even harder. Crap -_-

Basically, you've no doubts the difficult stack won't be there. It's a bit ridiculous if you ask me. I dun mind replaying the games, but dun force me to play every difficulty.

Yep indeed. I'm just saying that Nomura probably want us to play the games again and again after a time.

At least for KH2. it is ridiculous ye but a story isn't that long as KH2.

It may show there. Keep your fingers crossed if it's actually makes it in there.  :wink:

:T Yasue and Nomura = A Tie Between Who is the Biggest Troll

We're definitely going to consider [Dream Drop Distance], but we just made it, right? Two years ago. So I don't know.

I can't really say at this moment. For Kingdom Hearts 2.5, I think everything has to do with Kingdom Hearts III. It will connect. The whole experience, the theater and the story, will all connect to Kingdom Hearts III. I'm not being specific on purpose. [laughs]([laughs][laughs][laughs][laughs][laughs])

Actually, not the secret...Well, there's actually a secret event at the end, right? But that doesn't transition - well, actually - how do you know that? 

*I'm sorry, couldn't hear you. Can you speak more into the mic and be less cryptic?

We are planning. We're coming up with ideas for game shows and etc. I can't really say which ones at this moment.
*I don't think he heard me.

That reaction? That's why we're making Kingdom Hearts III. That's the main reason. That's most important to us. (*Internal screaming*)

Sorry, for this semi-confusing rant, but can SE stop toying with my emotions? ;_;

I'm sorry but how Square is going about 2.5 & 3 is really starting to piss me off. Now I can't play KH with my friends just because you want to rush KH3 out the door. Yes KH3 is very highly anticipated, but that doesn't mean ever single 2.5 interview has to do with KH3. Not everyone has a PS4/XB1 Square.

 

Also you claim to listen to player feedback. From what I saw here in America, we REALLY wanted Multiplayer. Oh but you never heard that from your JAPANESE fans. Well no shit Sherlock, if the Japanese community wanted Multiplayer wouldn't you think the Xbox (which btw is a heavily multiplayer based console) wouldn't sell like crap. It's sad to know all the feedback I gave for this and 1.5 was shunned because I'm not Japanese.
