Post yfw finally KH news
>>570086872those forms were interesting, but i think the implication that the triggers come from the sealed demons and not dante himself puts a dent in the presentation
>>570087061NOMURAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I’m done with this series after the Xehanort inclusion. It’s the most fairy tail shonen bullshit. Why can’t that man just die already Nomura you blubbering retard
>>570087290he did diesora died toothey're on the same side of the afterlife now
>>570087290Ok
>>570087182Well they're still mostly Dante, like his power fuses with theirs.
>>570087321In other words >im too much. If a god damn pussy to kill off the main villain that ruined the last saga FUCK YOU NOMURA
Since we probably won't get a PS6 re-release for a VERY long time. I wish they would have done a bit more work on KH1 and 2 and given us the original Heartless colors again.
There are apparently visual differences between the switch 2 trailer and the trailer at Square Enix YouTube account but I'm blind as fuck and tej only difference I saw was with Luxord
>>570087321But then shouldn't that be old man Master Xehanort in the afterlife? Young Xehanort didn't 'die', after his defeat he was sent back to his place in time.
>>570087061Today is legit a fever dream. I knew we might get the collection because of the previous removal of the cloud demos, but when that fade out happened and the screen stayed black, holy shit I couldn't believe it was about to happen. After the FF7 reveal last week I pretty much assumed we wouldn't get any KH4 news until a year from now.
>>570087502
>>570087502Okay that makes sense. But I still wonder why he looks so different.
>>570087625
This game already destroys. zkh3 (besides remind))
>>570087061I have never been so excited to see the fucking black cloak again
>>570087691
>>570087725KH3*
I realized that there's a non-zero chance a moana world could be part of the weird shit the rock is going through and he'd insist on voicing his character in game.
>>570087882What can he say except your welcome
>>570086901Wait did we get news? Like actual news? At the Nintendo direct?
Seething 2fags is always the sign of a great game. KH domination is 2027. I will personally kill the speedrunners live on air. Heil Nomura!
>>570087290>>570087450>>570087604
>>570088169How are 2fags seething? They said a long time ago they're gonna pander to 2fmchads in this game.Seriously, get killed irl. Retard.
>>570088381Lmao fucking saved
>>570088381KEK
How relevant will the extended Realm of Light cast be in KH4? Quadratum already seems packed with several characters, so I don't think KH4 will be a full ensemble game the way KH3 tried to be. It could end up feeling too crowded if everyone is included. So far, we know that Mickey is on his own adventure. Donald and Goofy are searching for Sora(and will probably enter Quadratum from being ‘killed’ by Hades). Riku is already in Unreality, although it's still unclear what exactly he's doing there. What about the others? Ventus has a connection to Strelitzia and the old world drama that's unfolding in Quadratum. Aqua is training Kairi, who is desperate to follow Sora into Quadratum. Terra has ties to Xehanort who was seen holding an umbrella for Sora. So, I think that TAV will probably have some sort of role to play in KH4. I don't expect them to be playable, but could they still have significant story or cutscene importance. And what about the Sea Salt Trio? If anyone is absent from this title I’m expecting it to be them. I like them and I’d be happy if they did show up, but they’re not connected to stuff that’s going on like the characters I listed above.
people already theorizing about the keyblade and abilities like lava strike or whatever. people saying elemental or moana.both would be disappointing world choices imo.i dont want any nu disney crap. coco is the only one id appreciate for being a good film and interesting game level setting
>>570087061
>>570088169Sorry but nobody with even the smallest/lowest standards thinks KH3 is a good game . 2fm is universally agreed upon as the best KH game. >Random malding about gameplay chadsYou're so pathetic
>mfw Strelitzia shows up
I'm maintaining that time in Quadratum operates differently.This is the only way Vali can't have aged, Sigurd is still alive, and Xehanort is even there at all. Also how the Master and the Foretellers have managed to stay alive and not aged in all this time.This Xehanort is him from earlier in his life, I don't think this is him post-KHIII.Since Verum Rex is a video game, maybe Quadratum loops like a Sleeping World? The story of the game plays out, and then it starts over? But because Sora and the others aren't part of the game, the progression of time doesn't affect them?
I hope Sora gets to wear a nice suit like Luxord
>the nigger is still trying to get (You) with his low quality baitNow THIS is so pathetic to watch lmao
KH 2029
>>570088885>Since Verum Rex is a video game, maybe Quadratum loops like a Sleeping World? The story of the game plays out, and then it starts over? But because Sora and the others aren't part of the game, the progression of time doesn't affect them?That's interesting to think about. Kind of like how Chi was on a digital loop.
>>570087061See >>570088770
>>570089203I got so hard when I found out she's 6ft1 the other day
I really hope the minigames in IV are more thoughtful and actually fun. Most of the ones in III are awful especially the cooking and snowboarding. Those gave me PTSD. I never want to see them again.
>>570089303Tsum Tsum minigame in KH4 soon
>>570089508Literally everything in KH3 except remind was awful It's why I'm going into kh4 with low as fuck expectations
>>570089621I’d say the graphics were pretty good but I agree with everything else.I think 4 will be better because it’s a clean slate and Nomura is FORCED to have better pacing because he can’t rely on handheld games to tell his story.
>>570088381LMAO
>>570089827They have more chemistry than Sora-Kairi already.
What KH game are you playing tonight to celebrate?
>>570088381fucking based. gonna save this one for reaction images
>>570089621I hate how doll-like the character models look in kh3 and how stiff they act in cutscenes like puppets. Thankfully, kh4 seems to be fixing that.
>>570089921Final fantasy 15. Aka Veruss 13. Aka Verum Rex. Spoiler alert>it’s shit
>>570089921Well I guess I oughta get my ass in gear and finish the Steam achievements for BbS
>>570090012But Riku said 15 is better than Rebrth
>>570089921Still doing my casual 2fm run.I like fighting sephiroth over and over styling on him lol
>>570087290He did die. If you didn't know KH4 happens in the afterlife
>>570090361Except Quadratum isn't meant to be an actual afterlife, it's meant to be a kind of afterlife to Sora and Strelitzia because of their circumstances while for everyone else it's reality.
>>570090481>>570088381
And of course here comes the spam bot
Canonical couple
Nomura can’t write a game without Xehanort in it. That’s unironically pathetic.
>>570090631Why are you mad that I paid attention to what Quadratum is?
>>570087061>me when elementals keyblade and seeing this image >>570088381
>>570089921I'm going to replay Fragmentary Passage.
>Stealth revive>Literally copies scene 1:1
I have 0 idea why I'm so glad that Sora is already doing some bullshit in quadratum like jumping from building to buildings /cars to cars just to reach neo darkside
>>570087346right, but again, i wish the styles themselves got individual trigger forms, not the weaponsi think it'd be cooler to see the trigger manifest to reflect dante's approach to combat a la pic related>>570087604but nort took his young form when he went to the afterlife with eraqus at the end of 3
I want to see Baldr in KH4 if that's really Vali.
They're saying that Square and Disney executed anyone who tried to leak the KH4 trailer
>>570092472Man I hope you get costumes in KH4, i really loved that outfit collab they did>>570092775Sora loses his powers all the time but constantly grows stronger, gets it back faster, and keeps some of his skills. Just compare his self from KH1 to KH2 and then from KH2 to DDd and then from DDD to KH3. It's like level prestiging in call of duty.
coming from this framing, i wonder if xehanort is going to see sora as a kind of successor to his mission of properly balancing the worldssora would almost certainly still hold a grudge for everything nort did, but after his defeat, nort would see sora's ideals as more worthy than his own, and become sora's first companion to see where they leadi mean, after everything, nort was the one who handed the x-blade to sora after his loss, conceding that he had earned it.
As if.
>>570094439I dont think He's giving up you know who. Plus if this guy is Sigurd then that mean more that likely he is working for Picrel. And hopefully with this cute girl too.
>>570092775He's not completely resetting to 0It's actually even worse(better), he's already doing some fuckass stuff like the chains and even summoning keyblades/light of the past to ride for free, in normal combatSomeone stop that boy, he's getting too strong
>>570094413Depends on the conditions of Xehanort being in Quadratum. If he only recently reincarnated he probably wouldn't have his memories or at least all of them.
What the fuck bruh
>>570026203Luke, did I ever tell you about Sora, Donald and Goofy? Sora is a young man much like yourself who wields a giant key called the Keyblade which has many mysterious powers and Donald and Goofy are his companions, a talking duck and a dog respectively. Many years ago I encountered them and they joined me on my mission with my master Qui Gon Jinn and assisted us in saving your father from being a child slave and fighting the Sith known as Darth Maul before continuing on their own journey. During the Clone Wars, they appeared yet again, seemingly not aging a day while it had been over ten years since we last met, while I and your father Anakin Skywalker were rescuing Chancellor Sheev Palpatine from Count Dooku and fought with us against the Confederacy of Independent Systems until Anakin fell to the dark side. Sora and I chopped off all of Anakin's limbs and left him to die on a molten lava planet that had the Keyhole that they were searching for which Sora sealed with a beam of light from his keyblade over the charred body of your father. Sora, Donald and Goofy were there on the ship where you and your twin sister Leia was born as I pleaded for their help in saving the Republic but master Yoda said that they could not meddle in the affairs of other worlds even after they had already helped me in killing many people. They then proceeded to wish us luck and then left the system in their space ship made out of gummy candy. And they were good friends.There they are now walking into my hut.Sora! Donald! Goofy!
>>570096881did sora have his memories when he woke up?
>>570094413He’ll remember player’s words about the child of destiny
I predict a 2030 release date.
I hope my nigga Vidar makes it in the game
What role will Lauriam play
Kingdom Hearts IV will only feature 4 Disney World but each of them is an extensive 10 hours long campaign. Which worlds do you choose?
>>570087604He and Eraqus became young again at the end of KH3
>>570097037It's a different situation. The world rejected Sora, whereas Xehanort died. Pretty sure Player is supposed to have no memories in Missing Link, and he would be closer to a Xehanort scenario.
>>570097629Olympus, Endor, Manhattan, Moana
>>570098005What's in Manhattan?
>>570098187Avengers, Spiderman, Gargoyle, Aya Brea My NYPD wife, the list goes on.
>>570098005>>570098187nta but if it were me
>>570098547Muppets could work as a musical world like KH2's Atlantica and/or the funny mini games like in Hundred Acre Woods
Halloweentown coming back as a parallel to Quadratum. Even though the Heartless came there, they weren’t violent until Sora helped create an artificial heart.
>>570088963pit
>>570099346Halloweentown will be in Kingdom Hearts 4 alright.
I hope sora's non-quadratum appearance has a very spiky hair again
>>570100381He probably won't. They want to take Sora's spikes away.
>>570100381who said we were leaving quadratum?
Off screen damage indicator discourse in Kingdom HeartsWe truly are modern now
KH4 will be so good it'll make the rest of the series seem like garbage by comparison. People will do KH4 replays only while waiting for KH5.
>>570100935Nomura. Do your required reading secondary.
>KH4 trailer>Peopl actively talking about KH for once>Spammy bot still shitting the thread upTurbo cringe
What's the deal with these black feathers? I thought it was Sephiroth for a moment.
>>570103180Just another Missing Link reference
>>570088651Lea and Isa might be semi-relevant because of Skuld, though all three will probably play a minor role. Pretty sure Skuld will appear this time around since the cast is full of mobile game characters, that and Nomura keeps designing female characters that look like Skuld these days.
>>570103365How am I supposed to know that reference when I didn't get to play it?
>>570103473
>>570099979Can we please not do this "I miss [attentionseeking namefag from decades ago]" thing again?
Fuck why did I even give that idiot a (You)? Why won't my post delete?
KH4 is coming out for the 25th anniversary
>>570104056>Nomura, march 2026: i know we don't have much news to share, but there will be more news next year!>by which i mean, the fucking game will be out
>>570104427It would be a very Nomura thing to do
>>570104427Truly beyond our comprehension
The build commnad menu is kind of like what you get when using Links in KH3.
>The build menu is ???So it's safe to assume this fight is the end of the tutorial right? Standard KH game to end the start of the opening with a Darkside fight. Sora probably meets Strelitzia after this fight.
>>570104761He might get Build mid-fight as the tutorial.
>>570104427News was quiet but powerful.
>>570103473In the datamines there were two characters named after Odin's Ravens in real mythology
>>570103447Nomura has a crush on a dating game character from the 80s and has been using her for a muse for all his black haired girls. I had proof at one point. In FF7 remake Tifa has her earings and they talked about it in interviews
>>570103180Black feathers = ScaryThis character is probably MoM who is the antagonist of the game and we are supposed to be intimidated by him
>>570092439I never got why this makes people so mad. Ive ironically seen people saying Nomura should let go of Versus 13 for 7 years.
>>570105935>You can't include references to your work because that's like bad or something like that
>>570103180Wait hold up. Odin plucked out an eye and uses ravens to see whats going on in the world. People have mentioned a possible cinnection to MoM before, but now we see him with feathers... which are probably a reference to those two characters who were probably in cahoots with odin... The ravens have a similar pupose in real life to the gazing eye. I need more news before I get schizophrenic
>>570105994I actually have no idea what the reason could be all these years. Im not sure they would know if I asked.
>>570094439jwu. what the fuck is my man kenshi yonezu doing out here in KH. is he gonna sing the opening for kh4 lmao. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJ70B_cwnPk
>>570088685>people saying elemental or moana.>both would be disappointing world choices imo.>i dont want any nu disney crapquality of the movie aside Moana has potential to be a pretty good world if it's mostly the realm of monsters area
Coolest thing about Build so far is how Sora can just swap between the mechanic and his base form without losing it or switching keyblades
>>570105630>dating game character*a 1993(=97-4) eroge (porn game) character Aoyama Misao >>>/v/740498989from CanCanBunnyExtra, where he 1:1 plagiarized "Tifa" from.
Ah fuck not these threads too
2026... I am forgotten.
KH4 being on the Switch 2 sort of worries me. Isn't the Switch 2 weak as fuck? Does that mean they're going to have to gimp KH4 so it can run on it?
>>570108752You are aware that FF7 Rebirth is on Switch 2, right?
>>570107623No one cares blud Tifa mogs that bitch
>>570109341I suppose so
Rip Ava being Kairi's grandmother theory. Makes wonder how she knew about the keyblade war and the foretellers.
>>570109341>540p internallmao
>>570110213I’m sure it’ll never be explained
>>570108752it's significantly weaker than the ps5/xbox series x but not that much weaker than the xbox series s which the game also has to support
>>570110672it's also more or less on par with the steam deck, which SE already strived to support with FFVIIRebirth (and i'm assuming Revelation too)
>KH4 trailer >/khg/ dead again not even 24 hours later
>>570112459the fact that you have nothing to add yourself should be the answer: we already talked about everything there was to talk about, it's a one minute trailer after alllike, what are we supposed to do 24 hours later? Repeat what has already been said? Make stuff up just to say something?
do you think the strange world world will have a caravan palace dance minigame?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikh0bUNoRik

>>570113839strange world is one i'd very much be "SDG only stroll through the world, never interact with the main cast and just basically defeat enemies and shit", cause i bet the setting would make a cool world to explore but that whole plot is ass and the characters are even more ass. In addition to the main kid being also ugly

Excusing Lea and Saix since they're associated with Subject X I can agree with this
>>570121170This is my list. Also shouldn't Mickey be moved to confirmed and Larxene be on here next to Marluxia.
>>570121170Elrena...
>>570121170Call me crazy but I don't think its possible for anyone in the genuinely might not show up category won't in fact show up.
>>570122284You really see Tidus and Wakka appearing?
Why did these regard developers remove attractions? At least make them optional
>>570119347i did and that scene is the only thing i remember because it caught me so off guard
Oh, it comes with a double-sided poster.
>>570087290He made 14 clones of himself, he used 13 on the Keyblade War and sent one to Quadratum, the Quadratum one never returned, that's why YX told Sora that he was going to suck dick anyways.
Can Nomura actually balance all these characters? Which characters are getting the background character treatment?
>>570103180I would love a new Sephiroth fight with the current developers. It was tradition.

Reset the calendar
>>570141530news on day 66, screencap this post
Our hero
so KH content in both Rocket League and Fortnite is unofficially confirmed, likely coming in 1-2 updates. this is a long shot but does anyone here know how long between updates for those games i have have a sneaking suspicion it'll coincide with D23 in August but need confirmation as i don't play those games.
i still can't imagine what's the context for this>Sora is in shambles>it's rainingprobably something sad, but what could it be? Is someone dying? It's in quadratum though, so someone is double dying? You die in the game you die for real?But also, does it happen early in the game or later on? Cause everything they showed in these years is seemingly about what happens right at the start of the game, so this scene might really be the only scene that is not from that (at least for the events that also have Sora in it)
Has anyone translated scalan on the buildings in the trailer?
>>570144109He has no idea where he is until he merts stelitzia cant leave and hasnt seen his friends in a year
>>570144109It could be a memory, dream or metaphysical encounter and not literally young xehanort
>>570125660He appearantly taskes the woman that wrote neo twewy to be the main writer of kh4 and neo twewy was bretty decent
>>570144109Strelitzia kicked him out onto the streets.
>>570145815>sora you have to pay rent here
>>570145815She found out he killed her brother? Twice?
>>570144109Sora realizes he's probably not gonna make it out on Quadratum so he's sulking in the rain but then Xehanort shows up
>>570143621That's a 90 year old man
Do you think Strelitzia is gonna ever leave Quadratum with Sora and Lauriam or will they leave her there since she's dead?
>>570144109I'm not caught on the UX story outside of back cover but this Xehanort is from dark road not from 3D right?
>>570147832We have no clue but I'm willing to bet it's post KH3 Xehanort
why is nomura nerfing sora's spikyness
>>570147832in dark road Xehanort had only mentioned he wanted to live 14 lives, with the 14th being the one for the new world. As the other anon said we don't know, especially since afaik the rules for KH clones and shit mean you can't really make a clone of yourself from nothing, and this one looks like literally Xehanort himself. So either it's another (eh) past version of him, though again how that past version can go to unreality is unclear, or it's some new thing imo
>>570147832This is the Xehanort who died in 3
>>570144109Looks like he's outside the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building where Yozora was perched in the KH3 secret ending. Maybe he sees Riku's spirit or something like he sees him in Traverse Town in DDD and gets sad because he can't see or reach him. Riku walked around that area in the trailer.
>>570148523Xehanort might've made some kind of data copy of himself when he was young or sent a fragment of his heart to Unreality in order to discovery that mystery. His 14th life. Alternatively he has just been reincarnated but looks young for some reason. He did revert to his 16 year old self when he died after all.It makes more sense why the other keyblade wielders look the way they do since Strelitizia and Vali both died young. Although in Streli's case we don't know for sure if she is the real one since we had that white coat version of her in Daybreak Town recreated from data. There might be two Strelitizias.
I hope my wife Vala gets in.
Is this Kingdom Hearts [Versus XIII] Edition?
Will characters be able to dress in something besides black again?
>>570137062would
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcHdUm_3Bx4Submit
>>570144109Considering Strelitzia and that Dark Road guy are here, maybe it's some kind of afterlife for keyblade wielders. This could just be like, Force Ghost Xehanort who is choosing to appear as his younger version. Also his proportions here seem more like the ones we saw in the opening of BBS.
I still believe.
>>570156661>Force Ghost Xehanorti guess it could happen. Like a Xehanort that is literally the one defeated in KH3, and it's like "i'm here cause i know of this place, i can stay for a while but not for long", unlike the other characters that look actually stuck there
>>570144109first keychain of the game
>>570156661I don't get it. Ava said in the trailer that Quadratum has no concept of light and dark but Sora and other keyblade wielders' arrival somehow brought the concept with them and spawned Heartless? How does this work for the afterlife exactly?
>>570160097Something is drawing them to the world. Maybe MoM showed up and either they all started showing up too, or MoM showing up allowed for the concept of Light and Dark.
>>570160097they already said Quadratum/unreality had no concept of light and darkness (cause it's like the real world get it), but they do. And given believing it makes it happen then the same happened to darkness, cause "it has no light or darkness" doesn't mean there's nothing like it just waiting there to be used by it. Like if it's just a normal place with normal people for those that live there i would assume those people also have darkness in their heart, but given they have no concept of darkness as something that literally comes out of you and kills you then it never happened until the keykids got there.Plus, by virtue of the heartless going after the keyblade (as KH1 says) their presence there enabled darkness to take form and hunt them down, destroying shit in the process (as seen in the trailer, the darkside very likely shot a mega destruction dark ball of darkness that destroyed multiple buildings)
Xehanort will go by a new name, and it's going to be an anagram on Enix
does anyone have the original key art image of the collection before it was AI upscaled?
>KH gameplay analysts>KH story theoristsI joke, it's a hell of a lot easier to predict how these games play compared to how these stories progress.
>>570157189I think she's in Scala, mostly because where else would she go.
So who stole Yozora’s body?
>>570156661I wonder instead if he somehow found a way to actually reach unreality when he was Ansem's apprentice and experimented on Kairi but then he discovered he was a keyblade wielder and became Xemnas and summarily dropped the whole project. Maybe it was somewhat successful though?
Lmao, at the part where Sora gets slapped aside by the dark side and gets knocked through the windows there's an error where the glass particles don't load until after he alread gets up, hope they catch that in the final game
In the Japanese direct those big armored heartless do an attck, they use dash forward like and their arms are like rockets
The trailer showed nothing we still got nothing for years.
I keep trying to buy the Nintendo bundle at a discounted price and it keeps looping to >Error Code 9001-1676 This item's price has changed. Please return to the previous page, reload to see the updated price, and then try again.
>>570172602Sora also pops out of existence when he runs towards to save those people in the Darkside fight. I wager they'll clean this stuff up.
I really hope the PS5 collection opts to put KH3+Remind on the disc. right now there's no way have to Remind in any physical capacity. Very curious about any potential upgrades too, because apparently the PC versions hate being run at frame rates above 60fps. They also introduced new bugs, which could end up making the PS4 versions the optimal way to play.
There are airships in quadratum btw, very similar to the old versus/xv ones. In case you missed it. Nomura is barely hiding it. Considering that Luxord may be Yozora's driver (assuming it's not some lookalike/twin brother), then him saying something is "impressive" may be him seeing sora take on the heartless. As a continuation of the Versus trailer where noctis watches Insomnia with airships in the sky. I wonder if Nomura is incorporating ideas from ONLY Versus or if he's doing FNC stuff too,
Get rid of gummi missions
>>570184283Fuggin forgot the image
>>570184457Also goes to show that Quadratum isn't JUST the real world. Pretty sure that's a common misconception that'll blow the casual observers when they see Gigas again. Also Bahamut may be around.
Now everything has calmed down, I have to say I'm a bit disappointed we don't seem to be getting any kind of KHUX/DR recap thing with scrapped ML plot. As important as it'll be to KH4, you'd think they would include a cutscene viewer for at least KHUX/DR in the new collections (KH2.8 specifically)
What would your thoughts be if Ansem and Xemnas were in Quadratum. They died, and the lore reason was because "they grew their own heart/ formed their own identity" before death.
>>570187996All ML plot will be in the kh4 tutorial.
>>570101424Nomura never said that Sora would leave Quadratum.He said that there would be other worlds.Two very different statements.
>>570187996How do you know they won't? We've seen like two trailers of about the same section of the game. I personally pray they remake KHUX/Dark Road and Missing link into console games. Like they're doing for Brave Exvius with Resonance. Hope they do that for Opera Omnia and Record Keeper . Hell all the other shit mobile games that died too fast.
>>570113839I have never even heard of this movie
>>570116020Dr. Lou is the patrician's choiceUnfortunately his name is actually Ludor (like "ludo," Latin for "play (a game or sport)")
>>570156661Strelitzia says its a world of the dead (in Japanese) or afterworld (play on afterlife) for people like Sora and herself. So I have no idea but maybe it could mean keyblade weilders. But, Master of Master disappeared into nothingness and then Quadratum but he didn't have a keyblade at the time. But maybe that was enough to count. But then there is the mystery of how Apprentice Xehanort found out and how he knew the Ark/Lifeboat could send someone to Quadratum. But those two were also latent keyblade weilders. Luxord and nameless star probably arent keyblade weilders but somehow ended up in Kingdom Hearts. If that means anything. I dont know if that's just the result of there being so many keyblade weilders or if it really matters. I get the feeling that unreality is some sort of place you go when you fucked up and broke the laws of reality so hard you can't exist in the Kingdom Hearts one anymore. Or just fucking with the ark you just slip away and disappear into nothing (which brings you to the Quadratum side.)I always think of that old KH1 trailer dialogue where Riku says Sora is going ti disappear. The astral plane shit must tie into this somehow too.Tldr: I dont know anything
>>570190805I only kind of have Moana, Frozen, Tangled, Wish, the shitty Toy story sequels, the shitty Chip and Dale Sequel, Wish, the shitty live action remakes in my mind for modern disney shit. And that's pretty tenuous. If I think REALLY hard I remember some movie avout kids going to an alien planet, orc(?) kids, that red panda movie about growing up chinese and peroids , that movie about fire and water growing up chinese, I just got an ad for a beaver movie that is apparently pixar? Coco was the spanish day of the dead movie and there was some spanish(?) movie about a magic house. I only watched one of these movies... Disney itself is whats going to ruin KH for me one day.
>>570169980Everyone new we saw in Quadratum is an equivalent to someone from the first Kingdom Hearts so we have a few possibilities.Yozora=SoraNameless Star=Kairi Magia=DonaldAegis=GoofyA Quadratum equivalent Riku seems like an obvious choice because Sora thinks Yozora looks more like Riku which brings attrntion to it. Sora and Riku were rivals who were jealous of eachother in some ways so the new story might be a weird version on that. Imagine if it was some sort of anime Mickey though. He's an actual King (Verum Rex)
>>570190594you really believe there won’t be any SDG in a main title
>>570197426That's not what I said
>>570197559so then sora is leaving quadratum
>>570197426I'll bet on it>We saw Donald and Goofy in the Kingdom Hearts IV reveal, but one question a lot of fans have is how much will Disney still be integral to the series?>With regards to Kingdom Hearts IV, players are definitely going to see a few Disney worlds in there. I just want to mention that they don't need to worry so much about this aspect of the game. It might feel slightly different from previous Kingdom Hearts titles, but once players have had a chance to play the game, I'm sure they'll be relieved to find that it is definitely a Kingdom Hearts title. It’s the game series that they've come to know and love.
>>570198791We have nothing suggesting that
>>570198878who are you quoting
>>570199501Nomurahttps://gameinformer.com/exclusive-interview/2022/06/14/nomura-reveals-more-on-kingdom-hearts-iv-and-the-series-future-with
I’m just afraid that any cool implications and plots will be undermined by the fact we have to go traipsing through Disney worlds. It’s not like I hate them no matter what, but the ones where you retread movie plots just take me out of the game.
DESU i'd be super duper bummed if keyblade transformations don't come out. Like build seems neat but keyblade transformations just seem like something that you have to have come back, but maybe that was just me
>>570201968Some feel like the transformations were why so many of the keyblades were just ugly looking. Like they were trying to make sense of how they became the weapons they did, but in doing so the actual keyblades suffered for it. It does seem like a mechanic that should stay around though, and I never had the impression people hated them, but perhaps they’re trying to implement them in a way that feels less “broken”, like how the KK seems to become a whip under certain circumstances.
Isn't it weird how 4 years later, they still haven't shown any worlds outside of Olympus and maybe Star Wars in the first trailer?
>>570203985Within KH, yeah. By 2017 we knew of four worlds, with a fifth reveal on the way for KH3.When you consider how Square Enix is now, not really. They do not want to market until close to release, and copying the KH3 marketing would go against that. If you're the hopeful sort, that time seems like now.
>>570203985No, same happened with KH3. We're pretty much following Nomura's schedule perfectly, he did the same for FF7 Remake too. Only show the first hour of the game in the first glimpse, and then again for the real trailer. Then once marketing ramps up, you start showing the rest.
>>570203985Not really, I'm glad for it honestly, the KH3 advertisement trailer spoiled every single world and just about every single moment of the story with just a few exceptions.
>>570203985It's good that they are not spoiling worlds. The reason why they've shown Hades is because he's plot relevant. Star Wars is speculation
>>570188497Would make 0 sense for them to be there
Speaking of trailers, it's been... 9 years.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaHSpUZgW24
>>570206882I remember that instead of finishing my thesis I spend the whole night watching this trailer on loop analysing every detail possible
>>570206723Oh they're going to spoil worlds. They have to for marketing. Just not early as fuck like with Hercules, Tangled, and Big Hero 6 for III.
was twilight town NOT based on san francisco?
>>570206882That reminds me. They removed lock on feature right?
>>570206723Star Wars isn't just speculation it's basically guaranteed at this point. It fits perfectly with the whole light vs. dark theme and since it's one of Disney's biggest IP, you've gotta expect it in IV. If they're not gonna include Star Wars, they might as well just drop the Disney shit altogether.
I wonder if Sora will be a bit snarky in 4 if not a bit jadedI guess he won't be because he's Sora
>>570207402>it's basically guaranteed at this point"basically guaranteed" = speculationDo you know what the word "speculation" means?
>>570209470It's not speculation. It's right there in the trailer. Every detail matches, none of the other rocks in the scene have any kind of similar greeble.
>>570203985>same happened with KH3It took less than a year to get a playable Olympus reveal and only two years to get Tangled and Big Hero 6 reveals. Four years later for KH4, and it doesn't feel like we've gotten anything on the level of the E3 2015 Rage Awakened trailer.
>>570210598>the E3 2015 Rage Awakened trailerThe trailer without a functioning UI, and just the literal first cutscene of the game?
>>570209897>Knows Excalibur >Doesnt know who Merlin is>Thinks he's a fucking heartless Sora what the fuck
>>570210372It hasnt hit me how absolute insane that Ewok battle is going to be in the style of KH4. Ewoks will be doing goofy caveman shit, and exploding and dying, while Donald Duck shoots magic and Sora does insane parkour anime bullshit and god knows what else.
>>570212753he only watched fate stay night
He looks angry exhausted confused and annoyed all at the same time
>>570215508and asian
>>570215508>>570215545i hope realistic sora only last for the tuto world
Yeah but is kh4 sora going to talk shit like kh1 early sora and kh2 sora
>>570215482He's not going to wear the cloakSame as Luxord
>>570086901Was expecting Sora to sound like an in-between Miyu Irino's KH3 Sora and VanitasWell it's not like Sora got any older so I guess that's on me
I'm not a fan of KH4 Sora's design in general. I don't care if it makes sense lore wise, he looks way worse than ReMind Sora. Maybe it'll grow on me but right now it's clearly a downgrade.
>>570216069Brother
>>570216069I really hate small brains like you. His look is specific to Quadratum and the entire thing about Quadratum is that it is more realistic than any world we have seen so far. Nomura has literally stated that Sora only looks that way IN QUADRATUM and will like normal Sora in other worlds aka Disney and Pixar worlds.
>>570216163I hate how bird brained retards like you fail to see that KH3 Sora would look just fine in Quadratum without changing anything.
>>570216427But why would Sora looks the same in Quadratum? Have you even played the KH games?
this probably isn't the name but I think that place is Miyashita Park, right? I specifically remember it because it's where you face down Shoka's sis in Neo the world ends with you, it's a pretty story heavy moment so the place stuck with me>>570216069Is it weird to anyone else how it seems like Sora's struggling here so much? Just like that old trailer where he's running towards darkside while everyone else is fleeing form it and it looks like he's struggling to summon his keybladeSpeaking of keyblades, Strelitzia is a wielder as well right?
>>570216498Then why doesn't Sora look realistic like in KH4 when he fought Yozora? See? You can't answer without sounding retarded because the design didn't exist at the time. You lorefags are pathetic.
>>570216743You really are a peak retard, holy moly.
>>570216820Cope and seethe, retard.
So they leaked that KH4 is coming out next year, WE WON!
>shows sora having a chain grappling hook>gameplay shows sora about to us chain grappling hook to the darkness golem>>>>>>fucking shots chains, leaves it suspended in the air, uses it as a railThat is fucking stupid and retarded JUST LET HIM GRAPPLE TO THE ENEMY INSTEAD OF MAKING IT A RAIL TO MOTION FLOW WITHIT'S RETARDED, HAS MORE UNNECESSARY ANIMATIONS THAT WOULD GET YOU HIT MIDCOMBAT AND MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL, IT LOOKS REALLY REALLY FUCKING LAME COMPARED TO GRAPPLING
>>570217321Nah, it is cool.
>>570217321kh2 sora would've used the chains to bind enemies then flail them around like a toywe're never getting a cool sora ever again
>>570217321aww yeah, we have stupid complaints like thiswe are so back
This is KH, not DMC/Ninja Gaiden you fucking retard, go play those
Still wondering why they'd release a trailer at a nintendo direct and NOW of all times
>>570218265To show taht it will release on NS2. The console that sold 6 mil copies in a year
>>570217321there's probably two different uses, one is a grappling hook the other is the chains that, imo, are very likely completely dynamic. Like you press the "shoot chain" button and then use the left stick to make your own chain shape (there's also a scene where it looks like no input was given, so the chain simply shoots downward, hits the floor and jumps back up for a short final segment)
>>570218265Nintendo paid billions for it.
i can see it>D23 trailer - Moana world reveal (could also not be a trailer, but just an artwork or a "beach scene, moana music plays, Sora walks in, end of scene - magic in the making an oath to return now in development)>TGA trailer - SW world revealand that's it for 2026
>>570217321Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if the grapple ended up being a closing ability for base. I expect context sensitive traversal at the very least. It could also be a higher tier build command.
>>570217321Kinda agreeing with this anon >>570218617Probably a combo modifier or press X or square mid combo thing since sora still has flow motion, that's the ultimate gap closer Actually wait, why was sora not using flow motion to travel distances when he tried to go for the neo darkside's face, is he stupid?
>>570217845>telling KH2 fans to play a real action gameSlow down there, buddy, they need their QTEs
>>570218851>is he stupid?
>>570217576>kh2 sora would've used the chains to bind enemies then flail them around like a toyThis is literally something KH3 Sora does2FM dicksuckers are a plague
I want Maleficent back so she can go through the DR jobbers again
>>570087682Stress.In the organization all he did was play cards, now he actually works
PoC has been in 2 and 3Is it going to be in 4?
>>570219384after disney chose to believe a moid and cutoff depp? lmaoooooo
There's always a chance it's not Xehanort in the body. He left an extra body but we don't know if he managed to us it.And in the long shot we don't know whay Player looks like now
>>570219495Right, what the fuck was Didney smoking
Moana world would be cool
KH4 trailer looks like the FF7Remake reveal one.Square is weird , they usually does the opposite that many other AAA companies and their games looks better sometimes in the release.And anyway, then Ocarina trailer with that shitty link happened and the debate of KH4 looking bad ended
>>570220546Grow up
>>570219662"Everyone" was still high on the whole believe anything a woman says regardless of proof. The second trial was one of the most satisfying about faces that ever happened.
No offense but if you want Pirates for the third fucking time in a row - you are a retard
Are (we) ever going to meet Strelitzia.
>>570207402>the whole light vs. dark themeLight and darkness in KH is treated very differently than in SW (also if we're exploring worlds in unreality, they should not have a concept of light and darkness)>and since it's one of Disney's biggest IP, you've gotta expect it in IVDisney has owned Star Wars since 2012. People were saying "Star Wars HAS to be in Kingdom Hearts III!!!" for years, and do you see Star Wars in KHIII?
>>570216069i like it
>>570216625Keyblades are a function of light so it makes sense that using that power would be more difficult in a world where light doesn't exist.This is probably why we have Build and how Sora gets reset to LV1, because he's in a place where none of his power even exists.Strelitzia WAS a wielder, but because this isn't the original Strelitzia she probably doesn't have a Keyblade.
>>570221978how do you know this isn’t actually strelitzia?
Do the Princesses of Heart still matter to the lore at this point? Xehanort used the PoH as a sort of hostage that if Sora and the other guardians refused to fight, he would target them instead. But all that is over. What would even be the point of the PoH now? And why is Kairi still a PoH? And why do Elsa and Anna both get to hog PoH status? Who are the rest of the new set of PoH? There's too much left unanswered
>>570222152>Do the Princesses of Heart still matter to the lore at this point?Nothing from the previous games matters because KH4 is a new storyline
>>570222075>>570221978Yeah we don't know if it's her or not. Doubly so because we know from Player dying that you aren't even dead the moment you float away you've got some time where dedicated people could get you.>>570222231We all know that's not ture and I don't even know why people shit post it >>570222152Because Kairi is still a virgin
>>570222231sora dying in kh3 matters to 4luxu completing his role and summoning the foretellers matters to 4riku being sent to quadratum matters to 4
>>570222075Because she's fucking deadAnd later we see a redheaded girl in a white cloak in Data Daybreak Town being escorted by a black coat to ???>b-but unreality is the afterlife!Simply put I don't believe that's actually true.This is Data Strelitzia>>570222152The introduction of New Seven Hearts feels like there's probably something for them in the future, it could also just be a lore thing.Rapunzel is also oneIt's speculated that Kairi kept her spot because she's the only Princess who didn't lose her heart to darkness and successfully protected her light.
>>570222482why don’t you believe it’s true?
>>570222374>Because Kairi is still a virginAlice from Wonderland is like 9 or 10 years old when Sora meets her in KH1 and then she loses her PoH status sometime before KH3 which only takes place about two years later. It's can't be, right?
>>570222482It might not be an afterlife but strelitzia's heart could've still been sent there somehow.
surely 4sora won't be as dumb as his 3d or 3 self, right?
>>570222784she shagged alright bruv
>>570223197The smarter a person is, the less they follow their heart(emotions)So no, Sora will never be not dumb
>>570223913>AND PCAHHHHHHHHHH
>>570223995Yeah? We knew that since the trailer from Tuesday was posted outside of the Nintendo Direct, it's coming to Steam/EGS/Xbox on PC at launch.
>>570223913i think Build is like the finishers in BBS, you do different shit and the bar fills until a new build is available that depends on the attacks you did before, except you can probably grind for different combos and chose (as in, from a skill tree in the pause menu) what attacks each "node" of build is gonna give you. And, every keyblade gets its own attacks obviously>>570223995yeah that's not news anon, they confirmed all platforms with the trailer. Same as every other SE game announced/shown lately, they really left console exclusivity (or even PC store exclusivity) in the dumpster
2027
>>570224397yeah right
Sadly "ON PC" doesn't mean "On Steam". Maybe it will be Epic exclusive again
The autism you'd expect from a Disney x Square Enix crossover>omg I hope (character from Disney) interacts with (character from Square Enix)>I would love to play around in a (insert Disney movie) worldThe autism you actually get>off screen attack indicators? I'M GONNA GO BALLISTIC>is that combo sequence not 1:1 with this specific game from 2005? THROW IT ALL AWAY
>>570224449Yeah, right.
>>570224651
>>570224651oh sweet, KH4 is free on pc!
>>570224397We won
>>570224651If square is smart enough to learn not make their games limited exclusives, they're smart enough to put KH4 on steam
It's the least exclusive KH game in existence.
>>570226089SE executive will come in and say "ehrm why is it not on phones???", game will be delayed another 5 years
>>570224651they already said it will be on both steam and epic>>570224761
>>570224765i get all my news and community opinion from here, are people really mad about the off screen indicators? Like, i wouldn't mind the option to turn them off but i also don't mind them being there either
>>570226630I've seen them be complained about a little bit, but it may have more to do with the need for indicators meaning we'll be attacked from off screen more frequently.
>>570226089This screen screams:>WE WANT THIS GAME TO BE SUCCESSFUL
>>570227723Spammy you posted this already >>570224543
Please God when they sell the earphones and watch, please don't let them have shit build qualtiy
>>570222784I mean it's not impossible, but also your can just say Wonderland has a different time axis so more years have passed.
>>570227848FFXVI, and Rebirth didn't exactly do great. So yeah, of course they do. I'm curious what their expectations were. They've been very unrealistic in the past, especially with western IPs.
>>570227370and that's a good thingi swear most of the fandom complaints are basically "the game doesn't make me invincible enough" and/or "the enemies aren't predictable enough"
>>570224397Winter 2027 which includes Jan 2028
The "darkness given physical form after we defined it" is not an indication that it's Ava. She is literally talking of Darkness taking shape in Quadratum/unreality due to people from reality appearing.Like keep in mind Heartless are specifically not among the darkness given form.That said VA is probably Ava unless the real reason everyone kept saying Skuld was like Ava is because they sound the same.
The most upsetting part of the lack of ML is we will never have months/years of going "Charcter did something suspicious they are secretly evil and/or Luxu"
>>570228706Probably.
>>570211169That trailer had way more polished gameplay than KH4's most recent trailer, confirmation that dubbing started and it showcased multiple Disney worlds for a total of three worlds compared to KH4's one. The Xehanort Eraqus cutscene also looks better than KH4's trailer just having talking over character introductions. We were in a lot better of a position back then.
I wanna fuck Strelitzia in every sex position recorded in the ancient texts
>>570229526That's a child.
We are getting another KH4 trailer at the World Cup
>>570229439You're clearly deluded from some innate desire to want be a "victim". Seen it in some KH fans lately. Too used to dooming at everything as a routine that they're too scared to stop doing it. >Oh well it's still not coming out before 2030>We're not getting a trailer for another three years>I bet nothing there was realFucking exhausting.
>>570229948Wish she kept her long hair
>>570230832she'll have rapunzel's braid in KH4, trust
Are they saving Laurium and Elrena for KH5? It's a bit hard to tell how they'd end up involved in KH4's plot, unless we end up returning to the Realm of Light a lot sooner than we expect. Perhaps they could be involved in some sort of B plot, but I'm not sure there'll be enough room for that. It feels doubtful they'll end up in Quadratum.
>>570228375>I'm curious what their expectations wereMore than KH3 which is like 7 mil if I'm not mistaken
>Lauriam, Elrana or [Character] weren't shown in 2 teaser trailers?.... Holy fuck, they are shelving those beloved characters until KH5!!! Nomura has fallen
>>570232270>It feels doubtful they'll end up in Quadratum.they should be recompleted in the real world, but then again Luxord also should be and yet it looks like he's in Quadratum all the same. You could say he simply recompleted in his original world, but he had already recompleted between KH2 and 3 and that would mean Xehanort went to quadratum to get him each time? Idk
all I want is cool chuuni choreography like 2's RCs, 3 was pretty fun with remind's data bosses but I need that chuuni choreo like sora taking enemies' weapons or attack energy and throwing it back at them, those were really cool
>>570233406i don't, or rather i don't want any "Press △ to win". RCs, situation commands, whatever, should just be finishers you're *rewarded* with for having played well, not just given to you. Especially for mobs rather than bosses i might add, there's some nobodies in KH2 that are basically fodderized by their own RCs, snipers might as well be an environmental hazard for example. On the flipside, samurais and gamblers get cool RCs which make sense to happen on their own, given how they work, but most others are "enemy is jaywalking, press △ to fucking delete them"
>>570232451I guess we'll see what happens. I know they were happy enough with KH3, but that all comes down to how much time and money it all costs.
>>570226089Good for me. I'm still considering buying a collectors version as well
I haven't played KH1 since a whole decade ago. I played vanilla because I didn't know the PS2 version of Final Mix was released at the time so I'm playing Final Mix for the first time. Should I do a Lv1 run or just regular Critical Mode?
THEORY: since quadratum is probably the hub world for kh4 and you get sent there by dying sora will die at the end of every disney world and kept being brought back in different ways by donald and goofy
>>570215482Might be Ava or MoM.
Will they have romance in KH4?

>>570237532Strelizia x Xehanort
>>570236087regular critical, lv1 is for retards
>>570236087you ARE playing the remix version right?
>>570236087Critical Mode isn't in KH1FM anon....
>>570232604That's not what I said. Laurium and Elrena have no real ability or even reason that we know of to appear in Quadratum, and I feel like if they don't have a reason to be there, they might not show up at all.
>>570238109alright>>570238252I'm an original hardware purist so I'll be emulating the PS2 version (I know emulation isn't original hardware but I'm playing for close as the experience)>>570238610ok proud mode then
>>570238761We know that Riku, Donald, Goofy and many other can get there so 0 reason to assume they can't
>>570086901The most patient man on the Nomursverse.

>>570222736>>570222880Basically, four things we know to be true:1) Sora didn't "die," he "vanished" as a consequence of abusing the power of waking, and in a fashion similar to how it's described the Master disappeared (who next chronologically appears either in Data Daybreak Town or with Young Xehanort, then appears again in Quadratum)2) Dying or disappearing is not the only way to enter Quadratum/unreality, exemplified by Riku at minimum, and suggested as a possibility by Xehanort to Kairi when sending her in the ark3) Quadratum has a native population, who live their own lives and can, as shown by Nameless Star, die themselves4) It is established that when someone dies, there are two outcomes: their heart ascends and rejoins Kingdom Hearts, or they are obliterated outright in "the void." Quadratum being a "world of the dead" is a direct retcon of something which was most clearly defined in the very game that introduced Quadratum.Some characters might believe or have been told that Quadratum is a world for the dead, but I think they are mistaken/lied to, and it's true nature/purpose will be revealed later.Or if you played MoM, you already know (a world of fiction).
Couldn't get a webm or mp4 under 4mb for here so I'm just linking this tweetSo far the best quick analysis of Buildhttps://x.com/Mobey3D/status/2064459139313459431Basically Sora creates his own reaction commands
>>570236087KH1 LV1 is for people who hate themselvesPost pic related to trigger LV1 PTSD
>>570239496just know you'd be playing the second best version of the game, instead of the actual best version of the game (aka, the remixes)like i get where you're coming from, but for KH the absolute best experience is with the remixes, except for the games that aren't in there (Days and Re:coded got made into movies for those collections, so the original DS version is the only playable one for them)
>>570239574True, but they also have a reason to want to go over there, to save Sora. If Lauriam knew that Strelitzia was over there, I’m sure he’d want to cross over, but we have no reason to believe he would know that. Possibly if we leave Quadratum and return to the Realm of Light, he could be informed, but that would make the whole buildup of unreality feel cheapened if it happened too early on. Perhaps if that phone theory comes true and Sora contacts someone on the other side, and they tell Lauriam, maybe.
>>570244909to me it feels like BBS' command styles, except attacking seemingly consumes the bar instead of filling it?
>>570247036And it fills up a separate bar over Sora's HP
>>570216162Damn, he cute
>>570217845Nobody May Cry is sick tho
>>570224761Why is Melody of Memory still Epic only and also not included in that new super bundle?
>>570226089Thank Yen Sid.
>>570252912likely a music licensing issue
>>570224765i did notice the discourse has started shifting sligthly from>KH3 bad because floaty KH2 good because not floatyto>ok KH2 does have some floaty elements but that's because it's combat was actually designed to be push and pullat least we're getting somewhere
>>570230541It just doesn't look good. The final game will obviously look better but the game has a long way to go if that's what they're showing us.
>>570224765I would love to play around in a Song of the South world but unironically!
I'm watching the Dark Road cutscenes. Where is Yen Sid? Didn't he train with Eraqus and Xehanort?
>>570254849We don't know but based on the last bit of dialogue in the game I have a couple of ideas.
>>570254849He trained elsewhere, it seems.Or was in a different class.
>>570254849He was trained by the former master of the Land of Departure
>>570226089Now we need is Chain of Memories 2 but with sprites and without the cardslop
>>570228342We got Dark and Rage, what's the next step after Rage Form?
>>570258332Esencia
>>570230305Fuck yeah
>>570258712>>570258680
Why is Nomura's art so shit now? He can definitely do better than this.
>>570258940It's AI.
>>570258940Nomura didn't draw that.
>>570258940Nomura only drew the KH1 Sora in black and white, the rest is AI.
>>570259261>Nomura only drew the KH1 Sora in black and whiteHow do we know this
>>570258995>>570258995>>570259261Disappointing to say the least
>>570259527darkness within darkness told him

>>570258332Angry Form or something
>>570258332Wrath
Any possibility of the 358 days and wayfinder crew playing a role in 4? I honestly can't even see Kairi making an appearance until towards the end of the game.
>>570262742I dunno about 4, but there's no way they aren't going to be relevant because of Ven and Lea and Isa's goals.
>>570259527Nomura does barely release any colored images anymore.You can say what you want about him but he knows about image composition. There is no way in hell he made that picture, some intern probably robbed some unfinished sketches from his desk and bin.
>>570263201He's a damn good artist.
>>570263201That and we've seen Nomura draw KH1 and KH2 Sora in modern times and they look nothing like that.
>>570223092>kyaaa onii-chan thinks I like another boy that isn't him...
>>570258995Definitely possible. Especially since none of them have the usual Art Illustrated by Tetsuya Nomura plastered in the corner like we usually see.
>>570273792remember when it said day 1000? haha...
>>570276069Don't worry we'll see it for the third time.
I want to play the first game in Japanese but Final Mix isn't undubbed for PS2. I also want to play it on my CRT, so I want 4:3 support. I think the PS3 version has an undub, can RPCS3 play games in 4:3 and also does it emulate well? Does the PC release for 1.5+2.5 have 4:3 support?
>>570276712>I want to play the first game in Japanese but Final Mix isn't undubbed for PS2.weird, isn't supposed to have dual audio?
>>570276712>I also want to play it on my CRTExtremely based. What's the brand?
>>570276712>playing HD games on a CRT>>570276850Only in Theater Mode
>>570271863This is true. Sora looks completely different. >>570265616This is also true.
>>570277393all these people will be in KH4>butit has been etched
>>570240092PUt a cigarette in his mouth he looks like he needs it
Where is Meow Wow? Is he summonable? Is he OP?
>>570278545it seems in your anger, you had him nerfed
Sora should destroy the Death Star
>>570278786No, that's not possible, he killed Data MX for me with deflate dash, I saw it. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
>>570278786WHAT? No I, I couldn't have... He beat Yozora, I felt it.
it's a rock btw
Data Strelitzia will be given a vessel.
are we ready for the moana world
>>570283015Is this fucking AI, why does he look like that
>>570283846No, it's real.
>>570283846https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEz5xbzYPKI
>>570284091There's no way The Rock's body actually looks like that
>>570284570
>>570284715See that looks normalThe thumbnail looks like a fucked up balloon man
>>570262742>Any possibility of the 358 days and wayfinder crew playing a role in 4?I sincerely hope they don't.
>>570284248Every single live action remake by Disney has been extremely pathetic.
In Dark Road, is it better to focus on deck building or leveling? The BP can only go to one.
>>570286397The BP costs in the card shop are really low, so it shouldn't be difficult at all to clean it out.But I haven't done a new game in the offline version so I don't really know how it balances out earlygame
>>570286807I left the game running all day, I totally didn't notice I was using BP to level up and just spent it all on leveling. I kind of wish I spent it on cards now. I'm just going to keep it running through the night and tomorrow, focus on card collecting. I think you're right to collect them all first.
I want to start playing the series but I heard these two discontinued delisted mobile games have important lore, is this true? Is there any way to play them?
>>570287657
>>570287657>I want to start playing the series but I heard these two discontinued delisted mobile games have important lore, is this true?YesAll entries in this franchise are canon and tie into each other>Is there any way to play them?You can still play Dark Road, but you cannot play Union Cross. Watch a cutscene compilation and ask plenty of questions, as the story is intentionally obtuse to leave players guessing.
>>570287657Union x is unplayable, but there is an English fan dub of the cutscenes you can watch herehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRUt8q2IwR4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKsJRJF20loYou can play Dark Road, but it requires manually installing the files yourself. Guide and files herehttps://archive.org/details/kingdom-hearts-union-X-dark-road-5.0.1?>>570288125>as the story is intentionally obtuse to leave players guessing.Are you retarded?
>>570287657>but I heard these two discontinued delisted mobile games have important lore, is this true? Yes, don't knock it. >Is there any way to play them?Not Uχ but there is this: Part I - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRUt8q2IwR4 and Part II - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKsJRJF20loYou can play Dark Road. Damo is eventually going to release fandub.
oh they're being funny>This game, which depicts the origin story of the "Kingdom Hearts" series, is a must-play for any fan.https://www.jp.square-enix.com/kingdom/25th/timeline/uc.html
I guess..that my power isn't needed yet.
>>570288354I would replay it again, if it was offline. Like I want it to be. I have a lot of fond memories of Uχ.
>>570258995>>570259140>>570259261you should kill yourselves. nomura drew it. they AI upscaled it and used AI to separate the characters for the western boxart
>>570294016>Strelitzia wage slavingShe lives off of her tenants rent.
>>570293372I really hope that the offline χ[chi] project is successfulSurely it can be done for Uχ, too... we have all the assets...
will the PS5 collection do anything different from the ps4 versions? like updated visuals and framerate?
>>570276850Not that I've seen. Even KH2FM's PS2 translation had dual language but I want to replay the games in order.>>570277056RCA TruFlat>>570277109ok, well I'd rather just play the PS2 version if it had JP voices but this is a compromise.
>>570294291There was one for Union, but it looks like they quit working on it.
>>570294464Nomura will come to your house and kill your girl.
>>570294464Should be a port of the PC version so 0.2 and KHIII might be 60fps? Might support 4K?One thing that is definitely changed from the PS4 version is that the opening movie for KH1 is skippable (added in the Xbox One port, never patched into PS4)I hope it carries over the option to swap the functions of X and O.One of the store pages suggests that every game will have dual audio.By the way, I still haven't installed KHIIIRM on PC, does anyone know if it includes the concert recording?Or is that a PS4 exclusive
>>570293372If the new Final Fantasy HD2D game does well, they'll probably consider it
>>570297192Not the first mobile game they've remade.Did Octopath 0 do well?
I bet Olette is an anal slut.
GuysWhy is the Japanese version 10GB bigger?
>>570294016I wonder how much Nomura was involved with WoFF.
>>570293818I did but now Im in Quadratum so I can continue this internet arguement.
Youtube keeps trying to get me to watch this video but its making me too angry to ever click it.
>>570287657there's like a dozen recaps for those games on YouTube, also they're probably gonna make a movie for both like they did for back cover
Imagine if we got the Disney comic Final Fantasy. They actually had talented people on this.
>>570288226>Are you retarded?Do you believe the Master when he said that wielders who fall to darkness cause their Chirithies to transform into Nightmares?
