He or Cecil should have helped Riku find his path within the Twilight, not D*Z
We are never seeing pre-7 FF characters in Kingdom Hearts. Ever.>but SetzerDesigned by Nomura. Special treatment.
>>736332356Did he design Vivi or the faggot fairies in kh2? Surely KH4 will introduce more FF characters
There will never be a real Dissidia game ever again.
>>736332423You'll get Lightning or Snow, maybe even Noctis. That's it.
Onion Knight(s) cameo when?
>>736332245>Cecil is a Dark Knight>Kain is a Dragoon, but looks like BatmanExplain.
>>736332796I haven't played FF4 in a while, but doesn't Cecil literally fight a dark version of himself to become a Paladin? And Kain was a character that served the antagonist and was on the "dark side" but had a redemption arc like Riku. You could tweak their story for KH to have Cecil/Kain use light and darkness
>>736332423>ViviNo, but his design is based on the Black Mage which is a Final Fantasy staple, so he too gets special treatment. Nomura had zero involvement in FF9 so nobody else from there will be seen. Vivi's inclusion was probably just an excuse to get a Black Mage into KH.>fairiesThe Gullwings from X-2, yeah? Yes, he designed them. He also redesigned them for their KH2 appearances.Nomura didn't get involved in the series until FF4, but also didn't start designing characters until FF6. So anything before FF7 is basically never showing up in Kingdom Hearts. As I said, Setzer gets special privilege due to him being designed by Nomura (Shadow was too, so there's a non-zero chance he could appear).
>>736333024It's just not fair. We get TWEWY advertisements but no Terra cameo? You can make Disney and Final Fantasy collab, but you can't get us a Cloud of Darkness secret boss? You can make a heartless inspired by Kefka for your shitty mobile game, but you can't even incorporate that into a REAL kingdom hearts game to at least to show respect for the older titles? And why the FUCK haven't you explained what happened to Zack at the end of BBS? Who is Zack to Cloud, and why did Sephiroth kill him?
>>736332423>Surely KH4 will introduce more FF charactersthey weren't even in 3 until the DLC, what makes you think there's going to be any FF characters in 4you'll get the TWEWY faggots and that'll be it
>>736333370New chapter brah. We'll finally elaborate on Cloud, Sephiroth, and Zack. Trust me
>>736332245>D*ZCounterpoint; we got Christopher Lee arguing with Paul St. Peter, and that makes DiZ worth it.
>>736333284>You can make a heartless inspired by Kefka for your shitty mobile game, but you can't even incorporate that into a REAL kingdom hearts game to at least to show respect for the older titles?The fact we didn't get this fucker on the Big Bridge in San Fransokyo is legitimately insane>Oh you want a superboss? Here's a slightly reskinned Invisible with a scarf, lmao fuck you
>>736333284The answer is Nomura. Kingdom Hearts is his series, so he plays a big part in what gets in and what doesn't. As for his decisions, it's mostly down to classic Japanese pride, wanting to stick to stuff that he, himself, has either made or worked on.>TWEWY advertisements but no Terra cameo?Nomura made TWEWY and all the characters therein. Terra is a never ever because, one, the only FF6 characters Nomura designed were Shadow and Setzer, and, two, Kingdom Hearts already has a character named Terra. If you don't think that's a big deal, remember that Rikku (FFX) was intended to be with Leon in KH1 Traverse Town, but we already have a Riku, so she was replaced with Yuffie.>Cloud of Darkness secret bossFF3 predates Nomura's tenure, so never ever.>You can make a heartless inspired by Kefka for your shitty mobile game, but you can't even incorporate that into a REAL kingdom hearts game to at least to show respect for the older titles? Kefka's great but let's not pretend he's THAT impactful on the franchise.>And why the FUCK haven't you explained what happened to Zack at the end of BBS? Who is Zack to Cloud, and why did Sephiroth kill him?They're not the focus of Kingdom Hearts. You care/thought about this way more about this than Nomura has. Only reason he focused so hard on Cloud and Sephiroth is because Nomuri is a chuni deviantart teenager at heart, for better or worse.tl;dr as long as Nomura runs KH, we're only going to be seeing things he's either personally involved in or things he really really really likes
>>736333606I haven't even played KH3 yet but man... An invisible reskin for a superboss. What if this, 358? What happened to Kurt Zisa? Gimme those guys again
>>736333712We have to kill Nomura
>>736333718you'll pay for data fights and like it
>>736332245It would've been interesting to have Cecil coach Riku on switching from the dark side, but Ansem doing it gives him something useful to do instead of being a dumb failure the whole time.
>>736333919Again, haven't played KH3 yet, but the fact that you fight, say, Larxene, FIVE FUCKING TIMES in the series (7 if you count original COM) is crazy. We could have gotten more heartless secret bosses, but we got the poorganization again? Idk, maybe it fits the story
>>736334026It also makes Mickey go through some character development and gives Ansem a comfortable slide into the plot
>>736334097The emperor looks so good when Nomura draws him. Man be would've been so cool. Imagine some FF2 representation in Kingdom Hearts?
>>736334097>>736334218Emperor would fit perfectly in Quadratum.
>>736333780You joke, but I genuinely don't think there's anyone at Square right now who is nearly autistic enough to handle Kingdom Hearts in his place.
So, how's the inevitable XIV collab going to look like? XIV is going to get like, a Xehanort Trial that's a reskin of the Hades fight with recolor armors as rewards, of course. But what is KH4.2 getting?
>>736334730lmao imagine believing KH4 is coming out any time this decadeSquare is too busy with FF7 to care about anything else.
>Trust me, Donald. I've been where you are. But going all out is not the solution! You wish to protect your nephews, don't you? Then you must live!
>>736335176We missed out on peak
>>736334639Masaru Oka could probably handle it at this pointIf not him just grab any of the KH fujos working at Square
>>736334483>Emperor post-SoP DLC gets sent to Quadratum and has to work to regain his power>Acts all buddy-buddy with Sora at first only to betray him later, maybe trying to claim his keyblade (or another) for himself>Boss fight against keyblade armor emperor
Was it true Rydia was supposed to be in KH1 to be a summons tutorial but got nixxed because she wasnt a Nomura design?
>>736337803Never heard of such a thing. And if they wanted a FF character giving a Summon tutorial, Yuna is right there.
