none of them. those places have way too many disasters 

This is the only correct answer.  
 

But to answer the question Besaid was the first location to pop into my mind sooo Spira I guess? 

My best guess is Daniel was testing out something with the site but let us know if it happens again

Is it still redirecting?

I guess I'll vote in my own poll  But I'd choose Twilight Town, sea salt ice cream and Le Grand Bistro would ensure I don't have to worry about food, I love the golden hour aesthetic, and it seems like it would be relatively peaceful.

What original Kingdom Hearts world would you like to live in?

Thanks a lot for your response! Yeah a lot of thought and effort was put into this, and I've on numerous occasions debated whether I should finish the project. But I always leaned back on the assumption that at least a few people would probably find it interesting/entertaining, so that pushed me to finish it. And it was fun to do!

That is a great question! When drawing I often find the sketching phase to be the most fun; when you're still workshopping the idea. And the Hot Rod redesign was the one I struggled with the most and thus the one which yielded the most different sketches. So I believe in the end - despite the struggle - that one might've been the most fun to do!

Two others I was greatly pleased with were the Morning Star and the Fortuneteller. They saw some of the least drastic changes, but the smaller changes they did receive I felt made a world of difference, so I was quite satisfied with those!  

That's interesting! Based on what you said in the video, I would have thought the Hot Rod might not have been too fun. All the Timeless River heartless did seem challenging, they're so specific to that particular world that I honestly wouldn't know where to start on how to re-design them so they might fit elsewhere. The Fortune Teller was interesting too, I didn't notice that it had a more specifically feminine design until you pointed it out, the re-color on that one looked quite nice too. 

Hope you have as much fun with any future projects that might be in the works!

Some really cool re-designs in here! I think my favorites were the fiery globe and ice cube, they looked a lot cuter with your redraws! Also appreciate you outlining your process and the timeline for the entire project, looks like a lot of thought and effort went into it over quite a bit of time. Also neat that your re-draws match the aesthetic of what we might find in concept art/art books. 

Curious to know if there was one you had the most fun with or were most satisfied with over the others. Thanks for sharing here with us.

I warned him but he didn't want to listen 🤷‍♀️

he gone now though 😏

Thanks for sharing in any case. To me it looks like fan art, which it probably unfortunately trained itself on. 
 

Don’t want to derail the topic too much but GenAI is such an interesting topic to me - crazy to see how good it’s getting in such a short amount of time. But also brings up a lot of talking points around the ethical use/application of it all.

yeah. it's a shame really

Yup, which is sad because I think there is a case and a discussion to be had about how Kairi's been handled as a character through the series so far. Everyone else here has brought up great points regardless of how they personally feel about the character but I guess, like FadedSparkle said, it's all a moot point with certain frames of thinking being brought into here.

so anyone who doesn't agree with your little conspiracy theory must hate her too? you need help

Yes that's exactly what they mean and they'll come back to tell you that's exactly what they mean too.  Logic and rational thinking go right through these types' heads, no room for nuanced discussion just screaming the loudest and labeling anyone who disagrees as wrong.

Yeah...let's not launch personal attacks against other members. This isn't up for debate or argument, and if you put it up for debate, if it happens again, or if you're unable to follow any of our other site rules we'll temporarily revoke posting privileges, that's your final warning.   

1. Games still in very early stages we don’t have enough info on it to even back this claim up.

2. This is the 5th or 6th topic you’ve made on the same issue. You need to just use the original thread that you made (which I’ll be consolidating this one into shortly) instead of turning every little thought about Kairi into a topic.

I like Kairi too (hell I have her as my pfp) and it’d be great if they could do more with her, but getting hysterical about it isn’t going to help people take you seriously. On a fansite dedicated to the series such as this one people are going to buy the game regardless because they’re that dedicated to the series.  

We can hope but it's good to keep expectations low in these types of situations. Like Albert said, it's definitely a possibility, but we don't necessarily have any indications that it will be. I haven't personally kept up with other Square Enix titles all too much lately so hard to say on that front as well. A trailer would be nice and would keep the momentum going though. 

I still stand by that the reason we got those screenshots was to soften the blow about Missing-Link, I think without that we probably would have seen them at a later time. 

It's definitely possible! Summer Game Fest is right around the corner. Though, I'm actually not expecting anything and would only want them to show case trailers when they're ready. To me, releasing these screenshots felt more like a way to offset the news about Missing-Link's cancellation, and to keep fans' minds at ease that KH IV wouldn't meet the same fate. 

I'm sure in time we'll get a trailer, and get to see other characters as well. As for multiplayer, also definitely possible, but we know so little about the game right now it's hard to say. 

It's hard to tell, since we have very limited info on the game so far but if I had to take a guess it would probably just be a small segment of the game. The screenshot only shows one option on the command menu so there's that too.
