    Deathscythe reacted to Darkfire1408 in Yoko Shimomura might've Referenced Back To the Future 2's OST!   
    They're not really even close. I believe the term you're looking for is arpeggio? A crescendo is a gradual increase in volume, while an arpeggio is the notes in a chord played one after the other ascending or descending. The only similarity is that they both contain a descending arpeggio. The BTTF2 track has three notes while the KH3 track has four. The steps are also differently spaced. If you notice, while it seems to be a different key, the arpeggio in the KH3 track has steps the same distance apart as the arpeggio in dearly beloved, with the final note continuing down rather than being raised an octave. In a way, it helps to thematically tie the end of the Xehanort saga with the beginning.

    That hardly looks like a swastika at all. You probably might be overthinking it a little.

    Deathscythe reacted to Regular Pat in A Complete Guide to Every Treasure in Kingdom Hearts 1   
    Yo, guys! Just wanted to share another project I've been working on. (I've been sharing some videos I've made here for the past month or so; hopefully it's not too overbearing.) A while back I compiled a list of obscure aspects of KH1, and part of that video dealt with the more out-of-the-way treasures and items. Afterwards it came to my attention that there isn't really a video guide out there for getting every item in the game. Well, there may be one somewhere out there, but I'm fairly confident mine is where comprehensiveness and relative succinctness meets. Of course, there's less of an incentive to do this in KH1 as opposed to any of the other KH games, but ironically, KH1's treasures arguably require the most effort to track down. 
    I realize that people like us who are invested enough in KH to be visiting its dedicated forums are less likely to have any need for this sort of guide, 17 years after the game released, but hey. It's possible you might pick up on at least one new thing, and at the very least, I showed off a handful of ways to access some stuff earlier than normal. And at the very very leastest, I tell some stupid jokes here and there.

    Yeah I totally agree. I just played Days for the first time a couple months ago (before I had only seen the story cutscenes on 1.5). I went from not thinking much of the game, to it being like my second or third favourite in the series. Also Xion is best girl.

    Deathscythe reacted to SweetYetSalty in Roxas's Charcter Evolution Through Disney Worlds   
    I've been replaying 358/2 Days and I'm started to appreciate the little things the game added to the Disney worlds to not make them feel 100% filler when focused on Roxas and his daily life.
     
    Agrabah: Roxas learns about friendship from watching Genie and Aladdin. I believe this is where he hears the term "best friend" which later comes into play for him with Axel and Xion. Roxas learns of the different tiers of friendships and when Axel first states he doesn't have a best friend when first asked, Roxas's portrait is sad. He might see this as his friendship with Axel is not that strong. But this of course changes after a trio mission in Twilight Town, where he and Xion earn the "best friend" trophy.
     
    Beast Castle: Roxas learns a lot during his missions there with Xion and Xaldin. Not just about the castle's story but about love. Watching Belle and Beast also foreshadows Roxas's own struggles for the future when he himself loses something important to him (Xion) which is a big part of his story.
     
    Olympus Coliseum: In addition to Roxas interacting with Phil (one of my favorite og/Disney interactions) Roxas learns that he is special and that he has expectations to meet from both the Organization and those that put their trust in him (Phil) I believe this is another reason Roxas continues to train with Phil even though he doesn't have to to slay the Heartless.
     
    Wonderland: Roxas learns to trust his instincts and follow the White Rabbit as well as interact with the Cheshire Cat. It always pays off because whenever he does he is able to find the Heartless he is after. This helps Roxas grow as a character, so in the future when he is second guessing something he can always trust his instincts. This comes into play later in another Disney world.
     
    Halloween Town: This world didn't do much for Roxas personal growth that I can think of. But there is more subtle foreshadowing here. The Leechgrave storyline is Xion's. Xion starts off small and cute, harmless right? Just like the Leechgrave. Lock, Shock, and Barrel can represent the Organization in that they take in the small Leechgrave just as the Organization take in Xion. In both cases they lose control of their small pets. The Leechgrave grows big and consumes it's fellow Heartless. By the end of Days Xion is "trying" to consume her BFF Roxas and becomes a giant armored monster. But in reality she wants Roxas to defeat her which is not what Xemnas wants and thus he has lost control over her. Not sure if this was intentional or not but the similarities were quite interesting. Also Roxas and Xion fought here for the first time too.
     
    Neverland: This is the world where Roxas really starts to do what he wants even if it doesn't benefit his mission. He wanted to help Tinkerbell and decided to do so. Even though it had nothing to do with his mission and would not help him accomplish his Organization goal. It is here Roxas fully thinks for himself and where his rebellious attitude really starts to grow and take shape.
     
    Twilight Town needs no explanation I think, but I do want to touch on the dropped world that didn't make it into the game which is Pinocchio's world. It was said that this world would have been a story for Roxas and Xion to want to gain hearts after hearing about Pinocchio, the puppet who became real. This would have been a beautiful story and really touch on the aspect of Nobodies wanting a heart by watching others gain a heart. Also would have been great for Xion's replica/puppet storyline too.
     
    Anyway those are my thoughts on 358/2 Days Disney worlds. While the Disney worlds in this game did nothing to advance their own storylines or Kingdom Heart's overall big plot, I think they did a great job in building Roxas's character and his friendships as well as future events for him, shaping him into the powerful and confident young man he is today. It is because of this game Roxas became my number one favorite character in the series and his character growth is my favorite story of Kingdom Hearts.

    Deathscythe reacted to Darkfire1408 in Moogle Origins.   
    I was just reading about the Mughal or Mogal empire. Having heard the name, pronounced exactly like Moogle, I wondered if that's where the idea for moogles came from. Looking into it, the Mughal empire was responsible for about 22% of the world economy, with the only country ahead of it being China. So i think it's pretty clear that the moogles were based on this ancient economic superpower.
    Anyways, thought that was pretty cool and decided to share it with you.

    Deathscythe reacted to Tails in New Final Fantasy VII Remake Trailer!   
    Yeah, to be honest, I'm not too hyped about the combat. Not because of the fact that it will be in real time as where in the original the combat was turn based. But because of my experience with Final Fantasy XV's real time combat. It was very clunky and just felt a bit decent. It looks like they are using similar ideas for FF7 remake's combat and perhaps (hopefully) improving it to make it more enjoyable. What really makes me hyped about the FF7 remake are the remade scenes from the original game. It will be good to see all these memorable scenes in HD and voiced.

    i don't think that's a good idea. Part of the charm of the kh series (for me at least) is Nomura's weirdo stuff. Letting fans run the series would lead to no one really being surprised or intrigued anymore because we'd know where everything is going. I think it would make everyone happy, but only on a very surface level, y'know?
