If you could ask Tetsuya Nomura anything regarding the development of Kingdom Hearts 3, what would you ask?
"Why do you always associate the enemies with Darkness, yet keep insisting it's not really evil?" "What were you smoking when you gave MX time-travel powers and Aizen-like omniscience over the series?"

Who Xehanort Really is (theory!)
Since he already pulled an Aizen over decades of canon in DDD, this would be my reaction if he did the same over the entire mythos like that:
- New Character we haven't know yet?
- Why didn't Sora ask Genie for help?
-
Pick one character who you can't wait to see again in Kingdom Hearts III
Why? So they can just lose even more of their character-development to Aizen's MX's "seeds"?

Birth By Sleep vs Dream Drop Distance Debate
BBS: Main Pro: A bunch of new and interesting characters. Main Con: Questionable executions of said characters at times. DDD: Main Pro: Flowmotion. Main Con: Beyond-convoluted plot twists that only seem to derail most of the aforementioned BBS characters.

The Kingdom Hearts series has become a joke
The multiple-consoles thing has been most unpragmatic (though they've finally realized this and remedied it with 1.5, 2.5, and 2.8, so points for that), and the writing just won't stop going all over the place. As a fanboy (albeit a greatly jaded one), even I can admit that.

Something i never understood about Xehanort becoming Terra/Xehanort
Actually, you're the one ignoring the fact that Nomura was only explicit about Xemnas's memories, but only said that "Ansem" MIGHT have had Terra parts---and only because of that one speculation about Destiny Islands, and even that was strongly suggested to be because it was MX's homeworld anyway. Furthermore, it was confirmed that DIZ experimented on Terranort, leaving the possibility of the heart-division being affected.

Something i never understood about Xehanort becoming Terra/Xehanort
I've never once seen anything confirming that as canon, and MX obviously would've been the one forcibly removing them (just like "Ansem" did Riku, creating yet another parallel between him and Terra). Plus, it would make sense for that to be the start of him trying to create empty husks. Unless you honestly expect me to believe that he has to go through all of that trouble to make the others empty, yet is perfectly okay being stuck with both Mr. Lingering Will and Mr. "Light Is Absolute."

Something i never understood about Xehanort becoming Terra/Xehanort
There's an easy explanation that can both make ^that perfectly plausible and not render the "Blank Points + Eraqus" business a complete waste of writing: Terra's and Eraqus's hearts went elsewhere entirely at some point. It would also fit Nomura's hints in the Ultimania, and it would also make sense for MX to remove resistance entirely instead of struggling against it (like when he knocked Sora out before trying to possess him).

Petty Things That Bug You About KH
MX being the most convoluted villain I've ever seen (and I've seen my fair share of anime and JRPGs), and the complete lack of clarification about Terra's and Eraqus's hearts.

Where did MX's body go?
In stasis somewhere until DDD. And yes, the Ultimania confirms that's his original body.

The Kingdom Hearts series after Xehanort's Saga
Provided I don't jump ship after KH3 -- thanks, convoluted and depressing storyline -- I would love something without any retcons, Villain Sues, etc., for once.

2.8 gets unnecessary hate. Relax guys. Seriously.
A Fragmentary Passage wasn't canceled. What's to hate?

Unsolved questions that will be solved in KH3
Because the Darkness has a s****y track record. Just because it's paranoia doesn't automatically make it wrong. Sora was also unconscious, so willpower was irrelevant.
