How hyped are you for Kingdom Hearts 3 Sup Forums? I'm a solid 10/10. This is the most hyped I have ever been for a game. Also, how in the fuck is Nomura going to wrap all this shit up with KH 3 and have it make a lick of sense? For fuck sakes, Ven is CANON to have been alive during the Keyblade War hundreds of years ago
I was excited for it 10 years ago. Not so much these days, but I'm going in with low expectations.

4/10

Just about the only thing I care about in KH is whether Kairi will take Sora or Riku's cock up her ass.
Andrew Gray
>implying it won't be both
Nathaniel Garcia
>implying Kairi won't take Sora's while he takes Riku
Jeremiah Rivera
Slightly lost hype over time. Famitsu said that the D23 announcement will be a big surpirse though so i expect a lot
Easton Sanders
>Nomura is now the character designer for Xenoblade Chronicles 2
SOMEBODY FUCKING TELL HIM TO STOP WORKING ON SO MANY FUCKING GAMES AT ONE TIME AND FINISH KH 3 ALREADY FUCK
Ayden Watson
>the character designer a character designer
Sebastian Harris
>Ven is CANON to have been alive during the Keyblade War hundreds of years ago
The fuck?
Justin Brooks
Learn to fucking read. He literally designed one character and he already looks more interesting than the other characters
Michael Green
will the story be so bad its good?
Luis Perez
You bet it will be
Jaxon Perez
>Learn to fucking read he's designing an entire organisation called "Torna"
come on guys it's not hard
Robert Bailey
>the character designer Are you dumb, he's one of them >TELL HIM TO STOP WORKING ON SO How long do you think it takes to draw characters? Do you also think nomura works on a computer all day long making kh3 and 7re by himself?
Sebastian Martin
The phone game which is 100% canon
Gavin Jackson
>Press X to look AWESOME and do BIG AOE DAMAGE
No thanks
Zachary Myers
>press button to do something Yes that's how videogames work wojack
Matthew Butler
Not that guy but knowing Nomura designing and drawing a character can take some time. He draws for Kh, 7R, drew and designed the character for XB2, designs some weird DC figure shit, draws the art for dissidia and dissidia opera etc. while being the director of two games youtube.com/watch?v=5JVQzbY1QfE This shit took him two weeks
Colton Thomas
This trailer actually hurt my hype somewhat
A lot of those special moves they showed off look like what I hated about FFXV; flashy cutscene based moves that exist for the purpose of looking cinematic and take control away from the player and interrupt the flow of gameplay.
Michael Bennett
>This shit took him two weeks u wot
Zachary Thomas
He said himself that Square gives him way too much work and thinks he's still the young guy from 10 years ago. Back when KH2 came out that's basicly all he had to work on and he drew every character, heartless, nobody, every ingame portrait etc. by himself. But now he has to direct multiple games, that have development teams in two different cities in japan, while being the artist on like 5-6 games
Bentley Myers
>Back when KH2 came out that's basically all he had to work He was directing COM and Advent Children at the same time, among other things I'll ask again How long do you think it takes to draw characters? Do you also think nomura works on a computer all day long making kh3 and 7re by himself?
Anthony Reyes
What the fuck are you talking about? KH is always been known for flashy, cinematic CUHRAZY gameplay
Gavin Phillips
>I'll ask again >How long do you think it takes to draw characters? Knowing Nomura's perfectionist mind it probably takes him a week or two per character and as other guy said he draws shit for multiple games more than just 7R and KH3 and the teams are in different cities for those games and he literally takes multiple trains a week/day to switch between them and shit. Stop bringing up your random sitting on computer shit. By your logic they don't need a director, character designer and artist to make the games. He also plays a big part in creating the music with Shimomura if you ever read any of the interviews He listens to every single track multiple time with Shimomura in the studio until they both thing it's perfect
Jason Hernandez
Most of that shit was basicly just limits and transformation, but with different camera angles. Most of the trailer were just a lot of finsihers and shit. It's hard to judge until we actualyl see a minute or so of straight combos without cuts
Blake Price
You think Nomura wants to distance himself from Final Fantasy XV after seeing his creations get raped beyond belief? I wouldn't be surprised if they don't get it. Before he was kicked off FF XV, he would gush about Noctis and saying Noctis and Sora were like his children. Since Tabata took over, Nomura has literally said nothing about Noctis or FF XV as a whole
Daniel Wilson
>Press X to look AWESOME You got the wrong game bro. A thread about pic related is where your post belongs
Wyatt Powell
>he literally takes multiple trains a week/day to switch between them and shit. what >Stop bringing up your random sitting on computer shit. It's not random, the original post was saying >STOP WORKING ON SO MANY FUCKING GAMES AT ONE TIME AND FINISH KH 3 ALREADY When there is more than one person who is actually working on it. Nomura doesn't make the games by himself and it's childish to think he does. Him drawing characters in his spare time is a big "who fucking cares"
Jordan Reed
so every game ever you stupid fuck?
Jace Campbell
I feel bad for Nomura honestly.
>Hate the direction Final Fantasy XIII was going >Wants to create your own Final Fantasy XIII >Makes the concept for arguably the most original, unique and interesting Final Fantasy ever >Spend a couple of years laying the groundwork >Suddenly, your retarded company makes one bonehead decision after another >Creates the worst MMO ever created >It's so horrible that it literally was on the verge to killing the company >Meanwhile, FF 13 is in development hell >Nomura's team now has to split up to help fix Square's shit >Finally fix everything and now Nomura can finally finish his dream project >Gets kicked off the project so he can make KH 3 >"Hey Nomura-san, while you're at, we want to make Final Fantasy VII Remake too" >All while watching everything he built for FF Versus XIII/FF 15 go to utter shit and be nothing more than mediocre and completely forgettable
Honestly surprised Nomura hasn't killed himself from depression, stress and over working
Julian Hernandez
>every game Nomura has directed to the end is amazing
I lost nearly all my hype and interest in versus xiii and xv when they brough Tabata in
Logan Mitchell
The KH story since 2010 is probably how Nomura feels: everything steadily getting more depressing, but we'll soldier on and maybe find a way out someday.
Wyatt Bennett
S-Shibuya will be in right? It's not just a cock tease r-right?
Parker Jackson
What's the context?
Robert Perry
I'm still so fucking mad. Fuck that con man Tabata
Carson Thomas
FF7Re and KH3 are developed by different teams in different parts of the country, he has to travel between Osaka and Tokyo constantly.
Jason Diaz
It's from Union X. After the Keyblade War and the death of thousands of Keyblade Wielders. One of the Foretellers made 5 more Keyblade Wielders the new leaders. It's revealed that the real Ven is one of those new leaders. Also, there's some fag that looks like Zexion wearing a fedora who is also a new leader. The 5th leader has not been revealed yet
Luis Allen
I don't think it's popular enough to get it's own world. Even the FF characters have to share their world with KH characters.
Jaxson Allen
Any pictures of the Zexion guy?
Jaxson Price
>Hate the direction Final Fantasy XIII was going >Wants to create your own Final Fantasy XIII XIII was only a ps2 game at the time and it's troubles didn't really start until after the FNC brand was announced >Spend a couple of years laying the groundwork Versus wasn't a priority that you think it was and was always on the backburner. They also had to wait for Crystal tools to be finished >Creates the worst MMO ever created >Meanwhile, FF 13 is in development hell XIV 1.0 came out after 13 released >Nomura's team now has to split up to help fix Square's shit While definitely true for 13, 14 is only rumors. Ferrari's comments awhile back mentioned that might've actually happened, but he deleted them. The only surviving proof is two conflicting translations from an italian guy on neogaf and resident fuckface xv-kun. While I want to believe the neogaf guy, I want absolute proof >Finally fix everything and now Nomura can finally finish his dream project They had a lot of problems working with crystal tools and a had to make a custom engine to get what they wanted. Nomura and Nojima deciding to make a trilogy while the game was in development hell also wasn't a good idea.
also i'm still pissed about the movie included in 2.8 it did absolutely nothing but confirm theories and concepts that fans have been passing around for a while now
Landon Torres

Jayden Anderson
This is still perfect
Isaiah Rogers
Nomura really wanted Ardyn back. Also that's 100% Zexion and Luxu. Look at his boots, they're the Org coat ones.
Christopher Thomas
Nomura didn't design Ardyn, so probably not And those are just Cowboy boots
Jordan Campbell
>Nomura keeps shitting out MORE original characters that will further confuse everybody
STOP PLEASE JUST STOP. I understand why there were so many Final Fantasy and Disney characters in KH 1 and 2 that mattered to the story because the series was low on OC but my god this is insane now.
James Robinson
I think you mean triangle, user.
Brody Carter
Is this the last one?
Owen Gutierrez
user, drawing a character takes a lot of time. You have to draw MANY "rough sketches" of character, then go through a lot of REVISIONS after which. You might even draw different things like how he looks when there's an action sequence and the likes
Matthew Barnes
No
Logan Hall
Are the Foretellers aside from Fox kill?
Matthew Sanders
Zexion hair yes
Luxu no
Ryder Ortiz
I know there is an updated version of the phone game, but what about the old one? Is the story the same?
I heard the foretellers story movie thing doesn't fully explain the phone game, so I'll need to play it anyway right?
Nathaniel Roberts
They all kill each other in the war, this was established in kh1. That fairytale kairi's grandma is telling is the keyblade war in X
Zachary Ross
Fucking this desu. Riku is on a Sora cucking spree.
Jackson Lewis
5/10. I'll buy it but I don't really care. The trailer was flashy but there was no substance
Jonathan Cook
>Nomura >perfectionist If that was the case he wouldn't ever finish making a game
Jacob Nelson
>Pretending Versus XIII would have good I wish people would stop doing this
Nicholas Campbell
Im not because I'm going to have to wait until Kh3 final mix comes out because I don't want to play the whole game twice
Daniel Rivera
Kingdom Hearts is a subpar series so no. KH2 was a 8/10, KH1 was a 7/10, CoM was a 7/10, Days was a 3/10, BBS was a 6/10, DDD was a 5/10, Re:Coded was a 6/10, and KH0.2 was a 6/10
Zachary Reyes
>Not the first IP from this post hmm
Asher Phillips
Why is that a problem? I replied to someone's post before posting my own. Stop being an autist
Jayden Carter
As much as I want to tolerate and stomach even the worst KH game, I just couldn't deal with terrible momentum KHX has
Grayson Baker
Ok user
Evan Scott
I still wanna get through the story though. The two phone games are the same right? One is jut enhanced?
Kayden Long
There's only on UX. Union X is the continuation of Unchained X. Everything that was in Unchained is in Union
Kayden Garcia
>Donald >Goofy >AND Herc Are we finally able to have extra party members without sacrificing a slot for Donald and Goofy?
>The two other keyblades have animations to coincide with the limit form abilities
Christian Hill
From what I told, they're the same. Like this user saidImagine Union X is the Season 2 of Unchained X
Nathaniel Bell
>Are we finally able to have extra party members They were all shown on the field at the same time, so looks like it
Nolan Peterson
Gotcha. Should I play those then watch the movie? Or watch it first? Or it doesn't matter?
All I need to complete my knowledge on the story are these 3 things.
Jack Anderson
Whichever floats your boat. Honestly, aside from making the Bears actually look good, watching the movie only raises more questions than explain everything, mfw someone saved my image
Samuel Smith
And KH 2 FM is a legit 10/10
Xavier Williams
Can somebody summarize what's going on with Union x? Has anything significant happen in the story so far besides Ven and Blaine being revelaed?
Eli Robinson
>The evil queen gave snow white an apple >Heartless are attacking Agrabah >Gaston is raiding the beast Castle >Oh noes, the dear White Wabbit got wate for the Red Queen's Coronation or something This is the only fillers I know. Care to fill me up on the rest of the fillers?
Colton Nelson
something tells me the game is more cinematic than gameplay if it is, ill rather watch a stream of a let's play than paying a single cent for the game
Xavier Gomez
Have guys actually ever played a Kingdom Hearts game to say this?
No shit they want to male a TRAILER for game they're trying to SELL flashy. Everyone either does that or aims minimalism in their trailers. Even KH2 did that with its trailers.
Owen Perry
>Have guys actually ever played a Kingdom Hearts game to say this? Yeah I played the fucking games. On hand. On the fucking Ps2. before you were born. Not Lets play bullshit. The 2 original games had ZERO cinematic, its all fucking gameplay. A boss punches the earth and the earth didnt cutscene to break apart like the Titan battle in the trailer. You beat the shit out of the boss using all the mechanics of the game.
Ingame cutscene shit in the trailer worried the fuck outta me that this game is gonna be some GOW3 you didnt tap triangle hard enough shit.
Owen Moore
>had ZERO cinematic m8
Logan Gonzalez
I hope he makes more just to piss you off
Isaiah Barnes
kek, it's a shit game
Eli Watson
>t.Hasn't played it on critical mode
Isaac Parker
>ZERO cinematic
ISHYGDBT
Ian Thompson
YFW Xehanorth may be dead, but there's still gonna be a 2b continued at the end
Isaac Rogers
>The 2 original games had ZERO cinematic
I want you to tell me what were the summon animations and finishers, the limits, and reaction commands were in KH2.
Owen Bailey
I think what you're saying is that the cinematic in the games aren't overbearing, and this is true for every single KH game, but there are plenty of them.
Oliver Robinson
It's already confirmed that 3 is the last one in the xehanort saga but not the last kingdom hearts game
Elijah Reed
I'd be more impressed with an actual release date.
William Bennett
Can someone explain the appeal of Kingdom Hearts? I really just don't get why people go apeshit over a JRPG with Disney characters.
Nathaniel Diaz
this beat KH2 and was hyped for KH3 that was in 2005 so anything square releases on KH3 that isn't a release date pisses me off at this point
Jonathan Hall
Eh modern gaming spends way too much time on flashy and rendering shit. I bet this game is moulded for modern kids that wants everything spoonfed to them.
Here are my bets on KH3: -forgettable fights -no secret bosses (sephi, kurt Zisa, ice titan etc) -no optional bosses (wakka, selphie, colleseum bosses) -literally, you cant possibly die the game -shit ass challenges, shit ass puzzles (game devs gave up wasting their time coming up with complex and interesting puzzles after the internet got popular and everyone can just watch a playtrough to crack them) -at least 6 20 dollar DLCs -little to no secrets, everything is like a corridor
Shit like this is the reason why game devs want Let's play to be outlawed on YT because their game is literally a fucking tv show. And its no surprise why they want to kill net neutrality to make their products good again like back in the PS2 times where people spend money on game magazines and guides.
John Long
They are fun games
Aaron Gutierrez
>Here are my bets on KH3: Why would you think any of this would happen
Hudson Flores
Can you explain without buzzwords?
Xavier Murphy
>Drive forms >Shotlocks >Flowmotion >skills activated via KH1's method like Sonic Blade and Ars Arcanum >Who knows maybe reaction commands too Jesus this game's combat is a Frankenstein monster from the entire series. Next trailer I'm expecting CoM cards to show up too.
Josiah Johnson
The 0.2 demo for KH3 is the exact opposite of all the autistic shit you listed. You're an idiot.
Andrew Sanchez

Cooper Brown
I have no hype left, gonna check it out whenever it releases in a few years, but I've got no expextations, no hype, a d honestly sort of expect it to be a bad game, just like any other development hell game. Name one game that took over a facade to release that was good, honestly. They still javent shown any decent gameplay for it, just a bunch of flashy junk I don't care about.
