Like Barry said, pre-production began in 2010, but that only involved putting the framework together, things like scenario planning, script writing and storyboarding. The actual coding and model work didn't begin until 2013.

It's gonna get even worse now that we know Aqua visits Destiny Islands in the RoD. People are gonna start saying she lost or left the Masters Defender there and Sora took a detour back home before returning to Mysterious Tower and then that scene happens.

It wouldn't matter if they did, she'd be under NDA.

Probably to fit the lip-synching better. Not that we actually see their lips, but that's usually the case when these things happen and they may no be the only ones to say it. Maybe someone else says it and we actually can see their lips move. No, it's the Master, he's the laid back, eccentic one, Luxu is the more serious one and sounds kinda like Ven. Look at the previous trailer, the one before the opening. Also, di danyoen else think Invi looke younger when she was talkign to the master? And the fact that both the Master and Mickey say the same thing to Invi and Aqua, they re definintly tryign to parrallel our two ladies in blue.

I hope not. Then we'd need a whole other game explaining HOW he found her

DUN DAH DAH, DAH DAH DUN DAH DAH! dun dun dun dun, dun dah dah dah dah dah, dun dah dah dah daaaaaaah.

Well, I've only been a member since 2010, so I wouldn't know about any news that came to the site before then.

Well, we saw in trailers that Sora can use Keybalde Transformation outside of Drive Forms, so I think it's actually the reverse, the Transformation determines the form.I really don't see Synch Blade returning, because then they'd have to code 2 Keyblade Transformations at once, because it was stated early on that each keychain will have its own set. Then throw Drive Forms on top of that and it's a lot going on, and if Form is determined by Transformation, then they'll have trouble determining which form Sora is supposed to into.

Unfortunately I can't, it was all the way back in 2008 or 9 and I'm pretty sure I didn't see it here. I think it was in Game Informer or something.

So... anyone else think Zexions VA is kinda cute? No? Just me? Okay then. *goes to shame corner and hangs head*

They're really going all-out with the alien thing, huh?

I tried for hours...

Seriously though, I could really use help with Costlemark. I'd like to clear it before moving on the the linear portion of the game.

This is pretty solid, I can't see any holes. I like it. As for Keyblade Transformations, yes they where indeed supposed to have access to more, similar to the KH3 ones as in one of the earliest scans Aqua was seen weilding a bow-like keyblade, similar to the Lingering Will. The design would later be the inspiration for her glider, but the scan had her using it as a weapon. It's likely that they, like the capes, where cut from the final game due to the hardware limitations of the PSP.

Like KH3 and Trancendent said, the true Kingdom Hearts and x-blade can't be formed, they just are, they exist as part of the natural world, Kingdom Hearts is where Lux comes from and Keyblades where modled after the x-blade. The Kingdom Hearts in KH, KH2 and BbS as well as all they Keyblades used throughout the series and the x-blade in BbS are all imitations of the real thing, like an in-ground pool compared to a natural lake. Now it could be the Lux, Guilt and the Keyblade War may call the real x-blade and Kingdom Hearts from wherever the where hiding, as that seems to be Xehanort's plan for KH3, but they didn't create them. Still wondering how exactly Xehanort plans to re-forge the true x-blade without the original 13 shards of Darkness, who knows, maybe just having the right ratio is close enough, but that's not really the point here.

The anime is free on their official YouTube channels, and both the anime and movie where made in such a way so as to not spoil anything in the game, you don't have to worry about that. They even put one of the most important and relevent scenes from Kingsglaive in the game itself as early as chapter 3, and Ignis explains what the empire was after.

"You realize I'm a guy, right?"

I need help with Costlemark Tower.

Seeing as how the game is already up for pre-order on the PSN, I seriously doubt we're getting a demo. Those usually come before digital pre-orders.

Well, we definitely know we get to see Aced and Invi fight. Maybe Aced and Gula too.

I heard if from you. (the news team) According to the timestamp, you posted it on April 7th. It says right in the interview I linked "approximately one hour". Turns out it's closer to an hour and a half. BTW I watched your 0.2 opening cinematic reaction. Had no idea you where a member here when I watched, much less part of the news team. Kinda cool to see someone from here post a reaction.

Here you go. http://kh13.com/news/kingdom-hearts-unchained-%CF%87-coming-to-north-america-on-april-7th But we just got new information that it will be 80 minutes long. The one hour thing was just an estimate but it's a moot point now

Oh, wow, this is great! It might not be as long as Days or Re:coded, but iirc BC was initially stated to only be about an hour long. We just got an extra 20 minutes! Now, how about 0.2?
