Way too many cutscenes and the gameplay is too floaty and not very fun. Dropped at the Mulan section when I realized the entire game was going to be hallways, cutscenes and gimmicks.
>>725999828you aren't worthy
>>725999828based and wise decision.KH1 was similar but at least it didn't force you to float around so much during combat.Also KH1's story, characters and plot made sense in its own world without feeling overly convoluted for the sake of looking "deep."In my headcanon KH series ended at KH1, the secret endings are still an untold tale lost in time that has nothing to do with the actual KH series plot and involves Sora finding his way back to Kairi with the help of heartless and corrupt Riku.In my headcannon the secret ending guy with two keyblades fighting heartless Riku isn't gay faggot, but in fact Sora trying to snap Riku out of his corruption so they can join up and somehow get back to destiny island without the use of a gummi blocks now that all the worlds are restored locked again in the state before gummi blocks fall down to build ships with.
>>726000226gay faggot kys
>>726000226shut the fuck up you retard holy fuck
you don't even know what "floaty" means
>>726000836Press X and the character floats around the screen for you. The first game had actual positioning, not majorly so but it definitely wasn't this braindead.
>KH2 gets love and praise for two decades>KH1fags are mad it gets overshadowed and try to double downIs this what no new game outside MoM and Dark Road is doing to the fanbase?
>>726001024I have zero nostalgia for these games outside of playing the first in 2002 and not getting into it. Thought it was pretty good when I finally played through it last week. The second one though... I'll be 100% honest, I was enjoying Chain of Memories on the GBA more. Fuck cutscenes and hallway levels.
>>726000924makes no sense. the game has aerial combos for you to do. you want to stay in the air if it is safe and half the time it is. you have a wide assortment of movement abilities and your attacks are literally based on positioning, retard
>>726001024>I'm a newfagWe know.If you were actually around /v/ when KH2 came out, you'd know it was far from being universally praised.People criticized it to hell and back for retconning many things from KH1, for introducing lame antagonists akin to a JPOP boy band, for the Tron world, for the voice acting quality decrease, for the retarded plot, for the boring and forced Roxas prelude, etc, etc.
>>726001204your taste is bad you should just get the gun bro. there is a reason why people do kh2fm lvl 1 speedruns. we dont have to get that autistic about it but the fact is it is a combat game, and it is the best one out there out of any action rpg. if you stopped at mulan you literally didn't do shit. didn't unlock shit. you havent played shit so kys
>>726001358It's okay, I know you're a nigger. You can't help it.
>>726001394No amount of unlocking stuff is going to change the fundamental gameplay, what little there is.
>>726001204GBA CoM is overall more enjoyable. It still has some snags but the pixel art and rooms not being stupidly big make it far better.
>>726001358>If you were actually around /v/ when KH2 came out,I wouldn't pride myself on being on here for 20 years if I were you
>>726001448>>726001394>>726001280>>726001024>>726000836>>726000587>>726000271>>725999908This turbo KH2 autist is taking it so personally, it's hilarious.Game is shit, lil bro.>it is the best one out there out of any action rpgKEK
>>725999828It's the best Kingdom Hearts game but that's a super low bar to clear, even more so when the series somehow made the story and gameplay even worse in BBS
>>726001762How though? Getting lost because of the bad pathfinding in KH1 was more fun than cutscene to cutscene slop.
>>726001648ong ong fr bro no cap you tell dat cracka wats up
>>726001762KH1 has more soul than KH2's "durrr Ansem is ackshually not Ansem now for no good reason and we heckin rearranged the letters in your names and put in a heckin epic letter X for no good reason, and nothing makes logical sense"
>>726001943and also everyone and their girlfriend's mother has a keyblade now because... HECKIN EPIIIIIIIIC
>>726002049In the first game alone, we had Riku, Ansem while possessing Riku, Sora, Mickey and Blonde Haired Kid/Roxas from the secret ending using Keyblades. Roxas was even using two of them at once.
>>726001516so you're just a wannabe shitposting faggot with no actual input. great, no need to waste any more time then>>726001648i feel nothing. nothing but pity for your faggot nigger ass lmao. >>726001943kh1 has more "soul" but kh2 has more edge kino soul. thats the truth
>>726002174Nah the game is just slop. If I knew it had 14 fucking hours of cutscenes beforehand I probably wouldn't've even booted it. But hallway levels on top of that? Fucking hell.
I hate they got rid of the drive forms after 2, and no the shit from 3 is not the same
gay thread
>>726002289its okay you would just be trash at the game and you'd pick a baby difficulty anyway. only the big boys do level 1 up in this hood because the combat is perfectly balanced for ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7kXaFyxEiI
>>726001943The only reason people say that is Youtubers basically banded to try and fellate KH1 extra hard. It's still a flawed game and there's a reason 2 rose above it in the social hierarchy once FM was available for everyone. Doesn't help that while Vanilla 1 is better than 2, 2FM beats out 1FM considerably.
>>726002439That looks really gay and floaty.
>>726002474>Vanilla 1 is better than 2the only true thing you said.I still own my OG KH1 copy, but after beating KH2 I sold it and considered it and chain of memories to be a blemish on the Kingdom Hearts name.
>>726002572lmao you are gay and retarded. shows over this guy is doing this on purpose
>>726002686Doing what? Stating my opinion that the floaty combat isn't interesting?
There's a literal autist in this thread who takes attacks on KH2 more personally than attacking his family, and thinks KH2 is a difficult game to master.Guess he never played anything remotely challenging like Ninja Gaiden or hell even DMC.Good lord. Some niggers are hopeless.
>>726002751there was nothing even remotely floaty in that video726002784there is always that one faggot who pops in to say "awooga booga a guy is defending kh2 against shitposters call the police he need halp". i hope you die in a fire i play vidya games that includes dmc, ninja fagiden, bayonetta, stellar blade etc. none of those are action rpgs like KH2
>>726002939You're right. They're not like KH2. They're better and leave KH2 looking like the pile of dogshit that it is.Seethe and cope harder, autismo.
>>726002678My whole post was fact. 1FM is a worse game than 1, and 2FM is a better game than 2. The Secret Heartless and the Unknown aren't interesting enough content and the majority of the former are more annoying than anything else, the extra cutscenes are mostly pointless, heartless recolors look dreadful, most of the new abilities are boring or make the already braindead game easier like Leaf Bracer, and most of the new weapons are either obtained too late to be interesting or aren't that good. The only real improvement is skipping cutscenes and Level 1 Proud still being a fun enough challenge.
>>726002939Making KH into just another action game was a mistake with KH2. Nobody should really care that much about the combat being epic juggle slop. It should've stayed a more Zelda style game like the first.
>>726003165Sorry I meant I agree with you that vanilla 1 is better than Final Mix 1.I just also think both are superior to KH2 or KH2FM because that game is soulless slop.
726003034Glad you came to stop by to try and spread awareness to the "cuhrazy" games knowing that KH2FM still sits on the throne, not even being an "action" game but still better at being a "cuhrazy" one than those imperfections with inherent flaws. Sit back down cunt.>>726003192not really. KH1 is there for that. it went in a better direction imo and we got a lot of cool things out of it, and they cooked. KH2FM is a perfect accident. KH3 is a balance of both
>it's another "actually this game was always bad" thread
>>726002335>and no the shit from 3 is not the sameYou're an idiot because Drive Forms are literally in the game. Each Formchange comes with a Drive Form, and some Formchanges share Drive Forms, and so share abilities.
>>726003387Well, at least we agree on that first point. I still prefer 2 out of both FM titles, but to each their own.
>>726003428Your shit taste is very apparent.You view floating around more with a million times more particle effects flashing around the screen as an improvement over the first game.>KH3 being played at all instead of being in the trashEnough said about your taste right there.
>>726002939>>726003428stop replying. your a newfag. ignore that shit or lurk more. do one. no one here gives a shit about you and we arent a group behind you.
yeah I don't care faggot. game sucks balls. the monkey girls in the first game are hot.
>>726003659Nope. Yozora alone destroys any humanoid bossfight from any of those games. https://youtu.be/OvSMpIkGVzI?si=2w-mFDyRdGzbHJcJ>>726003663get the fuck out of here you fucking random ass pussy i been here way longer than your sad crippled ass
>>726003841Calm down, grandpa Nomura.Time to admit your baby only got worse over time, not better.
>>726003841>massive circular arena with nothing in it>boss fight is a clusterfuck of floating and particle spamExciting.
Wish Nobody May Cry would finish up already, the alpha was fun but the dude's taking forever
>>726003726Sniperwilds ruined the good will Bouncywilds had.
>>726003989>a clusterfuck of floating and particle spamThese aspects please the primitive nigger monkey brain.Guarantee'd he loves the FF7 ""remake"" as well for the same reason.
>>726003987yozora boss fight alone and the 13 fights in the dlc say otherwise.>>726003989>ooo particles so many partiklces teehee thats all i can say about anything!>alright lets see what this particle boss is about!>"dies immediately" >w-what i thought it was just partickles??>w-ww-whaaat? how am i supposed to get an opening???>"oh no this is rough i guess im not good at games at all!"
>>726004204I love Rebirth for being a fantastic game yes. All those action games listed also have "particles". You people aren't very self aware, are you? I'm literally mocking you clowns.
>>726004216>>726004285thanks for admitting you have shit taste/thread
>Start>Skip>Start>Skip>Start>Skip
>>726004353fucking retard
I was a KH1 > KH2-er before it turned into this gay little reoccurring slapfight that reads like a Discord filled with Mexican kids that are surgically attached to the YT algorithm
Name a game that did more damage to action games than DMC3. Fuck juggleslop.
>>726004950KH2 easilyThe sheer amount of cringe in KH2 alone is enough for it to claim that title.
>>726005294 but people didn't add cringe to their games because of KH2 what are you talking about
>>726005374incorrect
>>726004889I'm a new inductee to the KH1 chad ranks.
IM SO TIRED OF FIGHTING. EVERYTHING IN KINGDOM HEARTS GIVES ME A GIGANTIC MASSIVE CHUUNI BONER AND/OR CHILDHOOD NOSTALGIA BONER. I love it all. I love the cringe because there is none there is no cringe. It's all hammy Disney anime campy bullshit and I love it. I love convulted insane JRPG plots. I love mysteries within riddles within mysteries. I love how Twin Peaks inspired all of Japan to make even more insane shit. I love how they keep approving of these games when by all rights it was a miracle and insane it ever got fucking greenlit. I love KH1. I love KH2. I love every single fucking game. I don't give a fuck anymore. Remember when we used to enjoy things and be happy or did your single mother fuck too many niggers in your childhood so you can't feel anything. Even nobodies can feel things and they don't have hearts. Because it's like pinocchio. Fuck you its kino and not a retcon. Fuck all of you. Kh1 is better than 2 but roxas is my nigga and I love petting dream eaters suck my fucking cock
KH discourse has been "my favorite game is the best game and all the others are dogshit" for close to 10 years now and goddamn am I fucking tired of itEvery KH game has its strengths and weaknesses. That's part of why I like the franchise so much, every game is a unique experience that keeps them worth replaying. Compare to some series where a sequel is an all-out better game that largely invalidates previous entries.Even the best KH games come with significant caveats. Just how this series is, has always been, will always be.There's so much more to talk about with this franchise than this bullshit autism competition.
>>726005754>KH discourse has been "my favorite game is the best game and all the others are dogshit" for close to 10 years nowProbably because it's true.
>>726005628Get out faggot. You have to only like one game and you can't like anything else. If I catch you enjoying things one more time, I'm gonna get angry.
>>726005754>Every KH game has its strengths and weaknesses.Factually not true.Most are utter dogshit with no redeeming qualities.
>>726005451>Every Kingdom Hearts mod now us 10 billion judgement cut slashes with every A press and a billion particle effects>Because action games have to be cuhrazeee or else they're shitDMC3 was a mistake.
>>726006132DMC1 is amazing and spooky.KH1 is soulful and cringekino childhood without being too convoluted.KH2 is a degraded, bastardization from KH1, just as DMC3 is a degraded, bastardization of DMC1
>>726006132>hey look at my cool new combat mod>I made all the animations really long and filled with effects and I amped up the mobility>here's a demo video of me spamming one button while my character flies around the screen in a way that's literally impossible to keep up with for meaningful gameplay>no I didn't touch enemy or boss design at all, why do you ask?
>>726006267Man what the fuck happened in the mid 2000's to make everything so soulless?
>>726006267>KH1 kiddie trying to put his game up with DMC1That's fucking adorable.
>>726006376Both are early PS2 games with inferior sequels. Jak & Daxter can join the club.
>>725999828>the kitsch of disney with the glacial story pacing of final fantasy, together at last!KH4 is gonna be even more of a circular retread than KH3 and I can't wait to see that dumpster fire burn all who dare approach
>>725999828Based. The areas in KH2 are easily the worst in the trilogy. And two command menus is retarded.KH2 is also the game that sent the story of the series off the rails HARD.Some of the only good parts are just the Final Mix bosses.
>>726006459pretty much everything that had a sequel can join the club except not Shadow of the Colossus, because it's better than ICO by a little bit.
I like how some parts of the original PS2 KH1 box art had some reflective/shiney parts on it.That artwork looked cool.
Friendly reminder that Roxas in the bubble of KH2 (no Days) is fucking GAY.
>>726006996he is a little, nothing personality, checker pattern wearing faggot, and he shouldn't even exist as a character.
>>726007676Even just how he is written into the game is gay, as well as his gameplay section. I get why people WERE hyped for him before KH2, but his actual implementation in the game is gay.
>>726006462The insane thing is the story in the gacha games were really good. Miles better than KH3. You will never believe me but it's true. So KH4 might actually be good.
>>726005754>There's so much more to talk about with this franchise than this bullshit autism competitionThere's not much to talk about when there's no news being released besides a black phone and Missing Link died. Even in less shitposty parts of the internet the things to talk about kind of stopped. Shit sucks.
>>726010113Oh I believe you, KH is better explained and presented in literally any other entry except the main ones.
the dialogue in these games are so stilted and in your face so much I can't take it seriously at all, and it genuinely pisses me off how babbyish it all is
>>726010403I'm not saying you're wrong, but I have no idea why you would ever even attempt these games if that kind of thing pisses you off so badly.
>>726006459 Based club. Early PS2 sequels had that energy where they tried so hard to be "mature" and "cool" that they just lost all the charm. Jak went from Saturday morning cartoon to GTA-lite edgelord, DMC got hit with Hot Topic writing, and KH2 thought teenagers wanted 18-hour monologues and anime soap opera. We really let the AMV crowd cook too long.
