Kingdom Hearts is going to be a series I will cherish until the very end. It holds a special place in my heart (no pun intended). I've never felt this way about a video game series before. It's amazing. I remember back in 2002, being 11 and seeing this commercial for the first time on TV
I loved Disney as a kid and seeing all the characters together in one game, plus the catchy as fuck Simple and Clean then Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII just blew my fucking mind. Then fast forward 14 years later and I see the new KH 2.8 trailer and I got the same goosebumps I got when I saw the KH 1 commercial back when I was 11.
I know I'm fanboying out and sounding like a major faggot but I can't help it. This series is absolutely magical
Christopher Moore
I'm gonna be sad if there's not a Tron: Uprising world in KH3
Fuck you Disney for murdering this amazing franchise that was just finding its footing in a universe of its own
Lucas Miller
>I'm gonna be sad if there's not a Tron: Uprising world in KH3 Best start getting sad now. Now, I don't mind a KH thread, but is this pasta?
Hudson Taylor
>that Simple and Clean 2.8 remix My fucking heart. Holy shit so good
Joshua Collins
square was extremely timely releasing the game at the crux of many 90s kids entry into adolescence. the series seems to have hooked many players because of that timing, including myself.
not to say that all of the series' appeal is nostalgia, just that it plays a big factor. i go back and play the games time to time and i'm shocked at the mediocrity of the level design the most. but i can basically brush that mediocrity off because the story is compelling, the combat is compelling, and the music is compelling too.
sora is a pretty good shonen protagonist.
Luke Brown
I used to think like you, just let it go and move on
David Cook
FUCK YOU WHY DID YOU REMIND ME
FUCK YOOOOOU
Jonathan Rodriguez
I know, right? I watch the trailer at least 10 times in a day just for that fucking awesome remix
Austin Sullivan
I was a jaded little shit so I generally saw most of Disney as boring formulaic cashgrabs even as a kid. But I still loved the first KH. The subsequent games have unfortunately only gotten progressively further from the feel of childlike wonder, though.
Dylan Howard
You must have not played dream drop distance
Christopher Stewart
I know Black Cauldron would probably never show up in 3, so i'm holding out for Treasure Planet, Atlantis, and maybe a passing reference to Emperor's New Groove but a world would be neat.
Ryan Baker
That was based on Legacy, not Uprising.
Chase Long
Uprising =/= Legacy, my friend
Luis Brown
That's the movie. This is the cartoon, Tron Uprising, possibly the best adaptation of the Tron franchise we have gotten.
Easton Russell
Whoops, my bad. I just did the research. Sorry, but we've gotten a tron in at least two games now. Maybe we can get another.
Daniel Cruz
i don't have much of an issue with that, since i've gotten older too. i appreciate the more mature direction the series has taken.
Robert Sanders
2 intro>1>CoM>rest of 2>>BBS
Havent played Days or DDD BBS has good music, that is about all I can say for the game
Wyatt Sanchez
Every day it still hurts.
I cannot fathom what must have gone on behind the scenes for this to have happened.
This hurts me and continues to hurt me on a level even greater than the loss of Chapter 3 in MGSV.
Why.
When will my suffering end.
David Barnes
...
Austin Mitchell
I swear I remember reading that it might still be a thing.
But really, Disney doesn't need Tron because they own Star Wars, which appeals to the same general audience and has WAY more potential.
Adrian Ward
It may have more potential to line Disney's pockets, but it's just not the same. Tron's world was only just being developed, Star Wars has decades of lore to fall back on.
It's not fair
Brayden Scott
Hurt some more
Jacob Hughes
what the fuck is this
is
is this a storyboard for season 2 I think I'm going to kill myself now.
Landon Howard
WHAT IS THE SOURCE ON THIS
Nolan Sanders
so who is blue girl and why do her friends hate her
Aaron Hughes
i thought this was a KH thread
tronfags go home
Christopher Johnson

Cameron Sanders
her name is anzu
Charles Perez
This one? Her name is Aqua.
Lucas Ward
Will KH 3 be shit?
Cooper Collins
...
Bentley Cooper
What is considered shit? If it's not 1:1 KH2FM people will hate it no matter what
Easton Young
most likely
Eli Brown
Well looks like I'll be getting a PS4
James Martin
More importantly, will it be out by next year? 2018? I'm just glad I haven't played 3D or X yet, at least 2.8 will have a decent amount of content for me.
Brayden Brooks
who is your favorite character OP?
Julian Robinson
I loved the first two but I just couldn't be assed to play Chain of Memories. Fuck putting the games on handheld systems.
Nathan Stewart
But Chain of Memories is the second KH game.
Grayson Walker
hrmm\ any more?
Luke Lee
KH has a fanbase whos autism rivals that of sonic
Joseph Myers
@353222812 We know. You keep saying it in every thread.
Matthew Perez
perhaps
Michael Gutierrez
You can play CoM through the 1.5 HD collection now. It's easy to catch up now with the HD collections.
Nathaniel Lopez
Is there a KH 1 and 2 remaster yet? I can't stand playing them feeling so dated on PS2.
Tyler Wright
1.5 Remix 2.5 Remix Both on PS3
Jeremiah Phillips
You're like a couple years late now. Kingdom Hearts 1.5 and 2.5.
Justin Parker
So if I'm following correctly, I only need to play the three HD Remix's to get the entire story?
Does that mean 2.8, when it comes out in 2017, will only have one new piece of story?
James Phillips
Basically. 2.8 has Dream Drop Distance, which is technically the latest story game, 0.2 which is more of a sequel to BBS, and the movie version of the phone game Unchained [chi].
Thomas Rodriguez
Yes. Finally someone who reads the chart. Though if you don't keep up with Unchained, X Back Cover will be new to you. Hell it will be new to people who currently play as it will be from a different perspective than the one in the game. And Aqua's BbS 0.2 segment is new. 3D came out a couple of years ago, so if you haven't played it, that will be new to you and it's chronologically the latest game.
Easton Bennett
Wiki says that Back Cover and BBS in 2.8 are the "ninth and tenth" installments. What's the one missing from the three remixes?
Jayden Bennett
Don't trust Wiki, that's technically wrong as X Back Cover is supposed to be the film version of the events of X/Unchained and BbS 0.2 is pretty much just a demo/taste of KH3 combat and isn't a full length title. But my guess would be them including X(Chi), which is the browser version of Unchained and has already ended.
Cameron Mitchell
i remember when the disney channel used to do little previews for video games during show breaks and they did one for kingdom hearts. that was pretty cool.
Colton Cox
None of them. 1.5, 2.5 and 2.8 have all the games together and all side stuff as well. 0.2 and Back Cover are new, they're included with 3D in 2.8. So by playing all the remixes, you'll be fully caught up.
Jacob Jenkins
Neat. I'll have to pick them up.
Steam release when? My PS3 yellow-lighted two months ago. ;_;
Sebastian Barnes
>Steam release when?
Cameron Jenkins
I know. I was just being a wishful thinker. Although I never properly sat through the games besides the GBA game when I was much younger, I know how anti-PC the series is. A properly working PS3 emulator is more likely than that.
Alexander Scott
When we get digital versions.
Matthew Morales
>square was extremely timely releasing the game at the crux of many 90s kids entry into adolescence. the series seems to have hooked many players because of that timing, including myself. It came out at the end of the Disney Renaissance and right in the time period before they started sucking (Emperor's New Groove and Atlantis were still good movies) so you're right in that regard. Square should start capitalizing on the second Renaissance now given Disney is on top now.
Justin Morales
I want to protect that smile and kiss those legs
Sebastian James
>yfw Hikari Ray of Hope is designed to mirror Aqua's story >starts off with upbeat high notes >dark, bassy tones creep in and begin overwhelming the track >drops (into the Realm of Darkness) and both tones clash and mix together for the rest of the track
Jack Brown
so what are the chances of that dude with the kh cartoon actually show it?
Thomas Campbell
I'm glad I stopped playing this shortly after KH2!
WHY THE FUCK ARE THERE FURRIES NOW?!
I'd cherish the great times I had with the game up to KH2 but the creators FUCKING RUINED IT!
Jackson Morgan
...
Jose Moore
>WHY THE FUCK ARE THERE FURRIES NOW?! You know that the Disney pantheon is filled with anthropomorphic animals, right?
Christopher Jones
>kh >furries
Adam White
Disney was the baby daddy of furfags. What is the issue here?
Blake Taylor
I really hope we get Robin Hood for 3. I love Zootopia, but RH was OG. And it's a classic so adapting it wouldn't be that hard.
Mason Russell
God damn is Ventus easier to play as than Terra.
Henry Taylor
The only good KH game is the original. Every other one is fucking garbage. KH is a good game but KH as a series is shit.
Jacob Anderson
k
Liam Taylor
why anons go complete gay for this gay-ass series? it's not even good. >insanelly convoluted plot that's ultimately about good vs evil >gameplay is shallow as fuck >13yo ideia of edgy >disney elements are pointless to the plot and only shoved in for nostalgia >squenix
Jason King
I doubt most people in this thread have ever played CoM on GBA or at least never finished it there.
It's a pretty good game on the PS2/1.5 collection. A little repetitive especially if you have to grind, but pretty fun combat system and it's the beginning of the series getting pants-on-head fucking crazy from a story and boss battle point of view.
Kevin Reed
Probably never. I think Tetsuya Nomura said he doesn't want there to be a KH TV series even though the pilot got outstanding feedback. Disney must have a great deal of respect for Nomura because Disney milks the shit out of everything
Michael Carter
I don't ever expect KH to have a show, but I'd love to actually see the damn thing with my own eyes.
Thomas Morris
Yup. Get those three collections and you have everything from a plot point of view.
Of course you're missing quite a bit of content still in the sense that some of the games just got their cutscenes ripped into the collection and nothing else, but whatever.
Colton Johnson
A pilot exists. Maybe it can be our new holy grail?
Lincoln Carter
>Only your heart is hollow enough to be a demons
have they ever mentioned demons at all in kingdom hearts before?
Robert Clark
that's the thing. we just found out that the director of it still has a vhs copy of it. we just don't know how to get him to upload it somewhere, and if disney will ever let him.
Nicholas Cook
Riku playable in KH3 pls
Asher Brooks
>those storyboards Who the fuck wants this?
Ethan Gomez
Just wait for him to die.
Hudson Ross
Demons = corrupted beings
Its basically a metaphor for the Heartless, Nobodies, and whatever else Vanitas pulls out of his body.
Also that line wouldn't work if they substituted that with the actual monsters of the KH universe
John Lopez
>Nomura >Ever dying
Kayden Torres
We know that Roxas is going to be with Xion, so please give Riku Namine at least. Don't let best boy stay alone.
Mason Robinson
I hurt myself today
Cameron Butler
The seven dwarfs thought Unversed were demons.
Luke Morgan
>Roxas absorbed Xion >Namine lies in Kairi How would this work?
Kevin Torres
Sora is definitely going to need therapy after everything's said and done.
Jose Reyes
>not joining team ursus when KHx came out so you can have fun with your bearbros and kill all foxfags
