KINGDOM HEARTS 3 HYPE THREAD

>The worlds in Kingdom Hearts 3 will be filled with NPCs

Game of the fucking year. Release date will be revealed at E3. What month will it be? I'm guessing a worldwide release in November just like FF XV was. And what world will be revealed at E3?

>same NPCs different sizes and colors
>game of the fucking year

I'd have to hear the remix for the opening to have an opinion on Oath.

I'm glad there's gonna be more NPCs though.

Reminder that the release date they announce at E3 is going to be 7/13.
Screencap this.

...

Why is this game series so goddamn fucking popular, especially with twinks and the same faggots who think Smash is the most hardcore game ever?

>And what world will be revealed at E3?
It's inevitable. I honestly wouldn't mind just as long as its not a fucking musical world like Atlantica in KH 2. I know Nomura has a hard on for musicals but my god I can't believe nobody told him that would be a horrible idea. I love Nomura I truly do. He's a great guy and actually cares about making quality games but someone seriously needs to put Nomura on a leash at times

>consistently decent/great ARPG series with crossover elements and a plot that, while more than a little stupid at times, remains fairly entertaining and a last bastion of the dumb indulgent fun that died post-early 2000s
gee i wonder why

For the character design, art dirextion, disney and gameplay. its not rocket science my friend.

God, these threads get infinity better when you stub out the stupid posts.

It won't sell.

Series is dated and old, fans have matured and the current titles are just too mediocre by today's standards to pull in younger fans.

>game of the year

What year? 2019? 2020?

For me, 1 was because Disney+FF+action shit. 2 was that damn gameplay and amazing soundtrack in the Mix versions.
Dont care about the 13 Xs of Norths, or the other random shit in the other games.

I will never in a fucking million years understand people like you. Who gives a shit what everyone else likes

Aw, fuck. Thought that was Hunchback of Notre Dam for a minute.

>source: my ass
You know what they say about assumptions right?
I'm 28 and grew up with KH as my favorite ARPG and my kids love it also and their friends love it as well I'm sure it'll be marketed well enough that it'll turn out big numbers

>It won't sell.
I can't believe you actually believe this. KH is more popular now than it has ever been. KH 3 was trending worldwide on Twitter during the fan event. Each new trailer literally gets millions of views. Hell the Toy Story trailer alone has gotten 5.3 million views. The two latest ones both have 1 million views each and it was just released. KH has reached an even bigger mainstream popularity than it did during the PS2 years

Hunchback deserves a second chance.

>anything disney related
>flopping unless the mouse explicitly wants it to

True, but on the other hand Tony is gone. So it won't be the same.

They still sell a shit ton of KH stuff at Hot topic

It wasn't the same in 3D. But 3D's Hunchback of Notre Dame sucked shit.

Will there be any Final Fantasy Worlds? Are there every any? I feel like it's just Disney worlds but I only played the first game.

Good thing that is not the main selling point and just some cool extra

It only ever has FF characters, not worlds.

There are some worlds original to the game, usually the final fantasy characters are in these

Well that sucks dick.

Kingdom Hearts 3 will remain that game that every kid "wants" but his parents think it's too expensive and so does he because if he brings it up his father will beat/shout at him because his father is reminded that he can barely afford the basic necessities to feed his family and of the general state of hardship most others in his neighborhood never had to face

Noruma said 7 Disney worlds
>Hercules
>Tangled
>Toy Story
>Monsters Inc
>Big Hero 6

Bet for the last two are Jungle Book and Frozen.

It's gay and offends me

Watch Insomnia actually show up as it should have been in FFXV.

KH 3 is literally one of the most anticipated and most highly requested game of all time. Literally millions upon millions of people have been bitching to Square for over a decade for KH 3. Even if KH 3 does somehow ends up being a pile of shit, it will sell like fucking hotcakes.

>hot topic

>Toy Story

What the fuck kind of villain can they have in that? Zurg isn't enough of a threat. Lotso?

>Noruma said 7 Disney worlds
When did he say this?

Oh look, its the millions of posts that led to the creation of /vp/.

They should include a world of this

>Zurg isn't enough of a threat
The one in 2 had brain damage, not his fault. Though maybe Al?

There are no Final Fantasy worlds because the FF characters are citizens of the established worlds. How is this still a question?
I believe the cutoff in terms of dates was Big Hero 6.

It will sell a lot but not crazy numbers, probably round 3-4M

>Populated worlds in KH 3
NOW I WANT SHIBUYA EVEN FUCKING MORE PLEASE NOMURA PLEASE

Is this game the best thing came out of nomura?

user they're going to be in the Big Hero 6 world. Shibuya is part of Tokyo, BH6 takes place in Tokyo/San Francisco blended.

You haven't been watching the trailers, have you?
Young Xehanort is the main baddie of that world.

It's also canon to the Toy Story movie canon

KH 2 Final Mix then TWEWY then Dissidia

Yeah, fucking npcs is what we wanted.

I have high hopes for the game and I will buy it day one, but the trailer looks like theres alot of scripted stuff going on and personally I don't like it. Flowmotion looks cool but in some places it actually limits the gameplay.

Else it really looks good, seems like its going to be alot of fun.

The new song is alright, but nothings going to beat simple and clean.

Can we please get a character from ff6 already? Seltzer is the only reference in Kingdom hearts.

Setzer was there because Nomura helped make him. Nomura generally doesn't want to use creations he didn't make, because he doesn't want to portray them in a way, the original creators may not approve of. Using his own creations, he doesn't have as much of an issue.

No but prepare for alot of Noctis and Lightning

>Series is dated and old
You know this series went to the PSP and the 3DS and still survived right?

>millions of people not buying a game that will symbolize the conclusion of their childhoods

Most of Samurai Jack season 5 was pretty bad, but it was still well received, and i'm still really fucking glad it happened.

Kingdom hearts 3 could be a 7/10 and I would at least be happy that I got to see the end of something that played a good part in my life, sentimentality is real.

Uhh, I wouldn't hold your breath. This first link is the Famitsu fan poll:
>Q13. Which Final Fantasy character would you like to appear in the series?
>1. [FFXV] Noctis (237 votes)
>2. [FFXIII] Lightning (201 votes)
>khinsider.com/news/KINGDOM-HEARTS-15th-Anniversary-Feature-in-Famitsu-9005

And here's Nomura's reaction to that:
>5. As for guest characters that fans would like to see the most, I'm a little worried. In the current state of the main story, it would be difficult to incorporate these characters. However, even in the responses regarding what fans are looking forward to most in the future of the series, numerous voices are heard expecting these guest characters to appear. I'll consider the voices of these fans very carefully and do my very best to meet the expectations of all other fans. As for the final messages received by fans, I can feel the same feelings and fond memories of the series that sprout forth from our overseas fans in our Japanese fans, however they are also patient. I could really feel the fire burning inside them.

>Riku says he's leaving his keyblade for the other him
>Marluxia, Vanatis are both totally fine
Please give me a quick rundown I have no idea what's happening here.

I wouldn't care if its just in there for a split second, just something you know? Like Locke and Celes in the background sharing a Parfait. They don't even have to speak.

CoM has replica Riku
3DS has established that if your nobody and heartless are destroyed, the somebody can come back. Why Marluxia is specifically back? No idea.
KH3 will be the MGS4 of KH where Nomura brings back everyone and tries to tie it all up.

Well we don't really know about the "other me" shit or how Riku's keyblade even got broke thought there are theories.

Marluxia was speculated to come back as a couple of years ago there were Nobodies that fit his theme in one of the trailers and KHUx reveals that his Somebody was alive during the Keyblade War.

Vanitas has been speculated to be a Nort for years now and technically he appeared in Dream Drop Distance.

That's false.

He said 9 worlds comprise the main story *so far*, and that there could be more.
He also said they're doing something unprecidented and surprising for the endgame and postgame. Also KH games are very well known for their post-game and optional mid-game content, so anything's possible.

>Riku says he's leaving his keyblade for the other him
Riku Replica in Re:COM. He returned to darkness after losing, so it can be assumed he didn't actually die but go to the Realm of Darkness.
>Marluxia, Vanatis are both totally fine
Either time travel or Xehanort shenanigans. Marluxia's real self should be back since his nobody and heartless are back, but if he's Lariam, or whatever his name is, then I don't know why he's still calling himself Marluxia, probably because he works for Org 13. As for Vanitas, who knows.

Who else here bracing for the inevitable announcement that it'll be "PS4 Pro Enhanced", meaning it'll only look the way it does on a PS4 Pro and it'll be severely downgraded for the Vanilla?

>Tfw we literally grew up with Sora and crew
>That new theme
Fuck ALL the heaters. Hold me bros. It's finally coming.

Here's your (You) sweetie ;)

That didnt stop him from ruining clouds character

How can people actually be hyped for this when Kh1 was the only good game in the series?

>Will there be any Final Fantasy Worlds?
No but The World Ends With You has a world. Make of that what you will.

It is still Feb. Can't fuck the heaters yet. I will die of cold.

>Either time travel or Xehanort shenanigans.

Worse. Multiple universes.

They're going to pull a Nier: Automata and state that every copy of the game is a distinct universe of its own, and the big finale will be hundreds of player-controlled Soras in a single arena fighting a Xeonort who's assumed direct control of himself in all universes

>Based Riku Replica coming back
Man I loved that motherfucker, pushed my shit in so much, what a good fight.
But I guess I should probably play DDD, BBS, and figure out what the deal with the phone game is

HOW COULD I LIVE

Yikes. This looks terrible.

Fucking Nomura does it again.

KH2FM
Birth By Sleep
KH1

In that order.

All else is negotiable

BBS is one of the best KH.
DDD is iffy.
Just read up on the phone game.

Ehh, as someone who plays KHUx, there's a tone of filler and it's story won't be wrapped up in 3. So only get into if you really want to be into and need something to kill time.

>Re:Com

Excuse me, (raughs). So what is left is Sora and co regaining their memories of that shitty place.

forced drama

That is oddly specific.

Kingdom hearts brings me joy like few other things in life do and I don't know why.

>Sora/NPC portraits aren't drawn
>just lazy static models
Disgusting

>No but The World Ends With You has a world.

Citation needed

DDD is much better than BBS solely because of the small core gameplay fixes. BBS's gameplay was pretty shit and shallow, even by KH standards. Fuck the pockemons though. They both had equally mediocre stories.

SIMPLE AND CLEAN IS THE WAY YOU'RE MAKING ME FEEL TONIGHT

>implying it's repliku
Did you guys just forget that one of the Xehanort clones is KH1 Riku possessed by Ansem SoD?

crazy as fuck soap opera plot attached to a semi-crazy battle system

I thought Aqua, Ven and Terra's stories was neat even though it was really predictable.

People are going off of a leak that has multiple holes in it. The funny thing is that the guys doing the "leaks" changes them every so often and this last one just happened to pick up steam. And a lot shit is stuff that has been known for years and I guess people just forgot.

Are you retarded?

They had good moments in them, like Terra's final boss and the cum guardian showing up again, but they were pretty bad or meh for most of it.

Pavlovian conditioning, leveraging both your childhood and some of the most pervasive and effective merchandising campaigns in history.

If you're anything like me, you were 13 when you played the first game, and you've watched Disney movies your whole life.
When you really get down to it, the entire series is DISGUSTINGLY cynical about its pandering.
And I love it so

>lazy static models
>implying
They've given them more expressions this time, shitposter-kun. I prefer the drawn portraits myself, but I don't mind it if it means we get more stuff like Woody leaning on the HP bar when he's at low health.

I literally bought KH 1.5+2.5 on PS4 last Wednesday. I beat KH 1 FM Friday night. And I just beat KH 2 FM a hour ago. KH 1 FM did not age well. It's not bad but KH 2 FM is a far superior game.

>That one world only you want
Danville, with Phineas & Ferb as your team against Doof's Heartless-inator. Agent P is rewarded as a summon.

So how old is Sora in the game? 16?

>See you in Shibuya
If Nomura decides that means it exists in the Shibuya of an already established world, then yes, Shibuya itself is its own world.

Unknown exactly. Either late 15 or early 16. With like 2 exceptions the games are pretty much back to back.

>Bet for the last two are Jungle Book and Frozen.
You're forgetting Agrabah. There's ALWAYS Agrabah.

17

pobably, but he's still a super manlet.

Are worlds actually interesting like KH1 or are they still just hallways like KH2?

Toy story 3 surely sold like shit right

Wasn't he already 16 in kh 2?
I thought sora was 16 and riku 17 in 2.

Agrabah and Nightmare Before Christmas were confirmed not returning back when Olympus was announced.
