I never played any of these games, but I figured you'd like to hear Sora sing the original theme:

This is from a medley, so there's no full version, but Miyu-kun is such a good singer.
 

DLC for Kingdom Hearts III that seems to help explained some of the story will be released this winter. Story is still convoluted as fuck.
 
The second trailer for Kingdom Hearts 3: ReMind DLC has been released. I make it clean and short. It shows :
  • More cutscenes to Re:Mind: The Real Story of the Keyblade Graveyard War + additional scenes to the main story
  • Every character is playable in boss battles (I think you choose which one you want to play with)
  • Final Fantasy characters (Squall, Aerith and Yuffie) finally make their comeback
  • 1v1 fights against the Organisation including Ansem, Dark Riku and Terra-Xehanort (Data Fights? Rematches?)
  • Scala ad Caelum (before just used for the Final battle) is now explorable
  • Yozora (literally Kingdom Hearts' version of Noctis) makes a story encounter with Sora

Miscellaneous (not in the trailer but related):
  • Photo Mode + Slideshow Mode
  • Fast Pass Mode: A debug mode that gives you the tools to kills enemies in one hit or often appearing situation commands, etc.
  • Black Code Mode: Its the same as the above but in settings the absolute opposite. You can manually scale your HP meter in many ways and downgrade/or outright block your abilities, etc.
  • New Keyblades with Transformations (of course)
  • Secret and Limit Episode (I don't really know. Many news outlets seem to get this info, so I include it here as well)
Well, it sounds and looks all good and nice but... why the fuck is this a DLC? Its all very essential to the story and it had already many plot points missing.
Okay, let's say what this all actually is: Finishing the game. Like Final Fantasy 15, Square couldn't hold the fingers still and played the same game with KH. Many people said they regretting the 50-90 bucks they've spent on the game because the story pacing was mostly awful, the battle system is less skillful and all the good shit happens in the last 2-4 hours of the game. If Nomura and the team could've included all this what they had shown in this trailer, spreading these types of fights and cutscenes throughout the different worlds and intersection it to the final clash in the last world on the main game, then this KH would be sitting high and had more praise.
Heck, the debug modes and secret boss fight/special fights could be just released as a "Final Mix" DLC (if they need money so much~), there would be fewer problems with it but expecting people to pay like 20-25 bucks for something that was crucial and needed all the time but just pushed away to earn more revenue on a single-player game is dumb as shit.
I'm not really mad about this, just disappointed. My money was well spent, I guess.
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

What's insane is how much story is there. It's like if MGSV suddenly got Chapter 3 as DLC. It's basically all the plotholes and unexplained shit finally getting an explanation.

I have to wonder how much of a shitshow KH3's development cycle was towards the end (and I mean specifically towards the end given how many delays this game went through). Most of this really should have been in the base game, but instead it gets cleaved off to be added back as DLC. At the very least we are at least getting something which is much more than can be said about other games coughMGSVcough.

With how much the DLC has it might as well be Kingdom Hearts III Final Mix or Kingdom Hearts III.5.

its one of the first thing they did on their first patch with puttning in critical mode.

i thought kingdom hearts three was OK but i did expect more from it. it just feels cheap i should have to pay for things that should have been part of the vanilla game. i doubt i buy it. im tired of the series for now.

did anyone buy the dlc? the data battle looks sick but not worth spending 30 dollars over i think.

i do like the entire dlc is nomura telling us how butthurt he was about versus XIII and how his gonna turn kingdom hearts into the game he wanted to make all those years ago.
 
I tried liking this series. But I should have started with the first and not the Second.

I thought i’d Love it being a Disney fan but I wasn’t well on Final Fantasy lore. The first time I ever knew of Sephiroth was in Kingdom Hearts 2 and before I heard his name said out, I pronounced it as “Sep-Hih-Roth”, ignoring the F sound when words has “ph”

The prologue of Kingdom Hearts 2 confused me. Where are the Disney characters? Though I did get a good laugh when I found the answer. Seeing Donald and Goofy cryogenically frozen brought visions of Austin Powers to my mind.

The Battle system was alright but as usual for RPG elements I couldn’t tell a silver speck from an FP boost. Melee combat was where it was at. I never thought Donald and Goofy would be such badass warriors. King Mickey was the best. Wayne Allwine did a damn good job voicing Mickey Mouse into a Final Fantasy Hero.

I didn’t finish the game because it got too complicated but I watched the end cinematic. It was so touching when Mickey, Donald and Goofy just showed back up, and everything was okay.

Im retarded and bought it. Will try and burn thru it tomorrow after work.

Edit-decided to get some in before heading to sleep. It took about 25 minutes before I got control in a menu, only to be thrown back into cutscenes for another almost 10 minutes.

I got it recently. Maybe I'll post my impressions about it soon when I have a clearer view on the DLC and stuff
 
lot of opening filler so far, but its doing a good job explaining loose ends.

KH1 would have probably been better for you as more of a Disney fan then a FF fan. It really takes advantage of its Disney source material and does some neat things with the villains forming some evil council of doom, it is very dated to play (Sora feels like he wears a suit of bricks at times) and the platforming is kind of shit, but you'll like the Disney aspects a lot more. It stays somewhat faithful to the movies, to some extent, without directly copying them like KH2 does a lot. After that I'd just drop the series as the Disney worlds start to become filler garbage for Nomura's stupid plot bullshit and if you think KH2 is too complicated oh boy you haven't seen anything yet.
 
Alright here's a warning. If your playing on critical mode, level up in the base game before you start remind and get to the data fights. You wont have any chances to do so when you arrive.

Ironically KH1 was what introduced me to Final Fantasy. I was confused by all these characters that the journal kept saying were from Final Fantasy and I was pretty sure it had nothing to do with Disney. Didn't find out that Final Fantasy was Square's other big series until a few years later (I was really young when I played KH1).

That is not new for the series though, many of the Uber Bosses are just strait horseshit.
 
No, but at least KH 1-2 let you visit the worlds when you beat the base game and fight the bonus bosses whenever. These data fights lock you in and are NOT optional to fight the final boss and get the endings.
 
The DLC is horribly overpriced. I finished it, and thought "I paid $30 for this?" Half the content is you repeating the bosses and cutscenes from the final world, no joke. No new Keybaldes (outside of the free ones), the Final Fantasy characters are glorified cameos, and it's incredibly short. Avoid unless you really like Data fights, because they're pretty good here.
