Since we know the worlds already, who do you think is going to be repped via summons in KH4?

Troy Bolton

AVERAGE AGE OF DISNEY MOVIES AT THE TIME OF THE GAMES' RELEASE:
KH1: 26
KH2:: 15
BBS: 43
DDD: 34
KH3: 18
KH4: 30

A couple of notes. I did not count Timeless River as Steamboat Willie adaptation because it was just vaguely inspired by the cartoons of that era. Also I found out that the first Winnie The Pooh by Disney is from 1966 and not 1968 as counted by the image that has all the ages of Disney movies, it's not really important so I just used the 1968 release date

So that they can do a callback in a future game like Mushu and Simba.
>Jack Skellington
If they do the KH3 thing and have past party members be summons again. Would be a cute reward in Haunted Mansion.
>Hercules
The above point, plus he's been strangely from trailers despite seeing so much of Hades. Or maybe Zeus or Pegasus.
>Spider-Man, Thor, Iron-Man, Dr. Strange, etc.
They have Marvel at their disposal, why not go all out.
>The Incredibles, The Emotions, Lightning McQueen, Dante, etc.
Bit strange that despite all the Pixar representation, we haven't had a Pixar summon yet. Should've happened in KH3 rather than reusing Simba and Stitch.
>Bahamut
Let's go full circle.

This all hinges on summoning working like past games, but I think it may undergo a revamp.

If there's anything I learned through being in various KH fandom spaces, it's that everyone openly hates the KH subreddit. Except for YouTubers who have to rely on them for views and subscriptions.

I personally find KH Twitter to be more annoying. It has better fanart however.

To put it simply, the subreddit is stupid. The biggest perpetuators of the KH jokes and takes that make your eyes roll. Sometimes they'll try to reject it in the replies, but the upvote system works against them.

So as we all know KH4 is seemingly gonna have sidequests in teh form of "requests", what kind do you think they're gonna have? Obviously some basic "kill these enemies" and "find this object" but is there any potential for any other kind?

I can already imagine it being used in a trailer, the world's intro cutscene, or as the field theme to the Tatooine planet portion.

If they waste vader on some absolute jabroni bossfight like shan yu or clayton i’m gonna shit a brick

I don't think Darth Vader's going to be the boss of the first visit, probably just some mech, a worm Heartless, or Boba Fett at best.

>>586965442
I can see these picks being reasonably likely all things considered

>>587013980
Vadar isn't going to be a boss fight.

Even if Vader is a boss there's no real reason to gove him some muh epic secret boss status.
There's a Star wars world but him in there if you think that's jabroni you got problems

>>587010990
years ago imagined the announcement trailer being something like they eventually did for coco, something that looks like it's just the movie and then Sora shows up. It would be like

>voice overs of idk Luke telling Leia about the force, aka dialogue from ep6
>someone walking from behind the foliage
>this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eb2zuegwcwk&t=241s plays, with the music swelling into the main theme when the someone walking emerges from the bushes and it's Sora

>some muh epic secret boss status.
That became an idea in the casual fandom because it spawned from people either thinking a whole world wouldn't happen, or believing Vader has "too much aura" to be taken down in the main story. They did the same with MCU Thanos.
In reality, pic related is made to be mandatory boss, twice, while a monster from an obscure Mickey Mouse short got secret boss status.

>>586998967
Destiny Islands should be the hub world for KH5

"But Aqua, she likes Sora"
"WHAT?!"
"No no no no, STRONG like Sora!"

I dunno why but I feel like the thought through Riku's head was like "Holy shit, Kairi's gonna commit murder!" then again doesn't Namine also like Sora? a small bit of her motivations in chain of memories was her attachment to Sora in particular and how she wanted him to like her like he likes Kairi,

sorry for dragging up old stuff I'm playing the game for the first time and just go through Riku jobbing to the demon tower boss, at least Mickey didn't this time, RIP way to dawn, Riku's coolest keyblade

Lethal Frame and Time Splicer should appear in another KH game

>>587085680
Apparently that's never actually been confirmed. It was supposed to be mentioned in some Ultimania but people actually checked it and it's never brought up so it's a case of someone confidentially stating something and tricking the internet for years.
What we do know is that he was planned to be in KH1 very early on back in the Lion Sora days.

There isn't much to get from here without an official reveal, but I'm guessing the first visit is based on the movie and the second visit is original? Or maybe both are original.

>>587113157
I hope the foretellers arent lame like Org13 and don't do world transformations. They're already animals it would be perfect.

It's not a KH game.

But I picked if because people were saying it doesn't make sense and no one can make sense of itbecause it's too convoluted and weird.

I havent seen anything from Star Wars except a few random shorts from visions in 15+ years I somehow forgot how amazing the music was. I cant believe we might get its music with Yoko Shimomura's music in the same game. (I'm not sure what to expect it's not like we get more than a few official songs but its Star Wars music so they have to right?)

The worst gameplay autists of this fandom will praise Yozora yet shit on the same team that made his boss fight, and not realize the contradiction.

>>587119814
I doubt the teams from 20 to 25 years ago are even the same at this point? I never got the weird console warring shit.

Speaking of gameplay autists it's pretty unfortunate that the vast majority of people who seem to make mods are only combo MAD/"DMC combat" autists with even worse sense of balancing than BBS or DDD. They seem to love making mods with screen nukes. Very little creativity in the modding scene outside of cosmetics.

People overrate the difficulty of grinding the special heartless in KH1. It's tedious to synth everything but it really isn't hard to fight the likes of Sniperwilds.

I'm surprised no one has pointed this out but KH4 has 5 Disney worlds and there are 5 Foretellers

>>587159956
It has 6 excluding Pooh.
>Star Wars
>Haunted Mansion
>Coco
>Monochrome Origin
>Toy Story
>Zootopia

>>587160260
I don't count Monochrome because it's basically an original KH world like Timeless River

>>587160479
We don't know that at all

>>587160479
Doesn't matter what you count.

>>587160479
I think even if you (wrongly) don't count Monochrome Origin, I find it hard to believe that Haunted Mansion is going to have a foreteller running around. It's the only world pre-Sora returning that won't be revisited in the story and the focus will probably be more on Sora trying to get home.

>>587161468
NTA, but if Luxu+MoM are in Quadratum, and the Japanese are right about Ava also being there as the hooded figure from the June trailer, what's stopping the other four lost masters? Aside from having new roles that dictate they must stay in reality to accomplish them, they may not be limited to one plane.

think Isabela Moner will come back as Ava?

I have to preface what I'm about to say with a disclaimer: I grew up with Kingdom Hearts. It has a special place in my heart, as my brothers and I all love it and we've made great memories playing these games, particularly 1, 2, and Chain of Memories (GBA). I've went back and replayed the whole series at least twice: once before KH3 dropped, and another after. Only one I haven't played as Coded, and if you wanna count the fringe online browser spinoffs, then I haven't played those either.

That being said, after KH3, I genuinely think the series is just simply done. No doomposting, I loved a lot of parts of 3: Athens, Toy Box, Pirates, Gummi, the DLC, and most of all the combat, it's actually my favorite out of the whole franchise, especially the DLC.

But, despite all that, my interest in the series has been nuked down to nothing. I even had a friend of mine practically begging me and tricking me into swearing I'd play KH4 lol. I'm just really done with it. And learning that the new saga revolves entirely around the aforementioned fringe browser game, and the tired "it was all simulation" twist, AND Xehanort is back AGAIN... like, Jesus Christ how are you all still interested in this? If you're new to the series I get the excitement, but if you're an oldfag... why?

TL;DR

>>587169141

>>587184092
think he's a fan?

>>587161468
There's no reason a one and done world can't have a foreteller but it could easily go either way.

I mean Ava and Luxu are in Quad do we even expect them to appear elsewhere

>>587169141
If you like the worlds and combat why wouldn't you be excited for more

>>587169141

Apparently not THAT special of a place.

is the kh2 level 1 anon still going? Is it still suffering?

>>587190717
I am the 2nd half of kh2 just didn't get me tilted enough to complain much.
Maybe I finally got mindbroken enough to get into the mindset to play a level 1 playthrough.
Though I did get close with the fucking conveyer belt room and the final nobody wave in the cavern of remembrance, but I don't think anyone actually enjoys those part.
Only need to do the last 2 cups of olympos and beat xemnas before tackling the data fights and LW.
I will never do this again once I'm done.

Yeah those parts suck, especially without second chance or once more. Just complete ass.

Good luck. I'm halfway through the data fights in my replay. Though it's not a level 1 run I'm not fighting them at 99 this time.

>Just complete ass.
To be honest I think every mob fight is fucking ass.
You either stunlock them to death with magnet or chicken little or you I-frame your way through their bullshit.
The final nobody wave in the corridor is just the epitome of that.
You stunlock everything and then spam I-frames when the magicians show up.
Playing the goddes of fate cup right now and it is a relatively smooth experience(when that fucker stitch doesn't randomly decide to fuck you over by refusing to refill your mp) untill in one wave 4 of these fuckers spawn in and bum rush your ass while being immune to magnet.
I have seen many videos of speedrun troons complaining about links.
Funny thing is first they complained that links are shit, but then later on they complained that links are too strong.
But I think their real issue is that links make it way more obvious that they are using a move to get through a bullshit attack or mob unlike duckflare which let's them pretend you're doing some skillfull shit with base sora while they're actually just abusing I-frames/stunlocking shit.
I find the links being too OP argument also extremely funny when they love using duck flare+elixir spam.
With links atleast you still take damage even if you cannot die and you need a full mp bar to even use it.
Same with the datafights.
I have seen some people say that the kh3 data fights are like simon says that, because they basically go through a patern and that 2s boss AI is more dynamic.
Which is a fair argument, but what do you do with those bosses with dynamic and less predictable AI?
You either fucking loop their AI so it still becomes simon says or you fucking I-frame/stunlock you way through their unpredictable bullshit.
They also ignore the fact that LW acts much the same way as most datafights in 3, but will praise that to hell and back.
That being said I will still rank them 2>1>3, but 2 glazers are knuckledragging retards without a single original thought in their head.

>>587209114
You can rank the games any way you want; I have 3 as my first and DDD as my second favorite game, but I think people who jack 2 off as some masterpiece or above other Kh games really need to take a step back. Just looking at the mechanics, duckflare is a good example; it's just completely broken. You're a god during it, and the damage it shits out is OP, and the data fight argument is funny to me. LW is Simon says too; he's not more or less obvious. The only secret fight I've felt was a real back and forth was Xemnas in KH1; that was a high for that type of fight in the series that hasn't been reached since. Summons really were at their best in 1 too; they felt more dynamic in a way summons in 2 and 3 lacked, and 3 was closer to 1 in that respect. If we count D-Links, I'd consider those second best too.

Has anyone run Melon Mix on their Ayn Thor?

>>587159956
IF they're smart they're not gonna be fucking a autistic and go back to the 1 oc villain per world shit. That's part of the reason Disney worlds are so fillery a lot of the time. They're not gonna but it would be nice of they had other OC characters go into the disney world too, like Dark Road. At least they're not doing the bulllshit KH2 did which was dividing every world into two visits even when they really didn't need to. Not every world has two visits so i'm more optimisitc that they'll have slighty better pacing.

>>587221870
I wonder how long the visits of the worlds with two visits will be. I can see Star Wars having the longest if they're doing both Tatooine and Endor, and something like Zootopia being shorter by comparison since both visits will be closer to each other.

>almost lost my winning sephiroth run, because only combo finishers can kill bosses.
It makes the end of the fights look cool, but I'm glad they did away with it.

>>587253314
I think the Disney villains we're getting are a strong roster aside from the sheep lady from Zootopia.

The best thing SE and Nomura can do with KH fans with KH4 is not bother appealing to them at all, and just doing what they want creatively. And judging by the achievement list, they may be doing just that.
No need to force Radiant Garden, Olympus Coliseum cups, a Sephiroth boss fight, and EVERY Disney world having a second visit if it doesn't fit the vision.

>>587275948
They're forcing the Keyblade Graveyard though. At this point it might be the worst OC world.

I'm going to go play Kingdom Hearts Union Cross

I always found it really funny how Ultima had Combo Boost and Air Combo Boost in KH3. I mean, it makes perfect sense, but it really felt like they were saying
>Yes, THIS keyblade is the strongest, you better use this one
After what happened with Decisive Pumpkin in 2.

>>587275948
I don't need a mandatory 2nd visit per se, but I do like having a reason to go back to older worlds.
I really loved going back to older worlds with high jump or glide and get chests that weren't reachable before.

This was already resolved in the same game it got brought up in.

You need a whole world visit for that when there's already an entire section dedicated to Mickey learning about that era?
>Subject X, who is connected to Lea/Isa and AtW needs an explanation.
Subject X left a decade ago, before Radiant Garden even fell to darkness. And as KH3 both showed and introduced with this plot point, a visit to RG is not needed to expand it.
>Leon and Rinoa’s letter. Not mandatory but is a dangling thread.
>The Restoration Committee were heavily involved in the search for Sora. So, they will need to be informed when Sora returns.

This is just thinly veiled begging for the same old FF fanservice. You're not even wanting resolved plot points at this point, you're asking for pic related.

Data axel would be doable if it weren't for the fact he can bust out the GET BURNED attack when he hides inside the flame.
It is fucking impossible to react to and using reflect fucks up the dash and stomp you can use burst frontier on.
The fact that the dash can just kill you without being able to react depending on axel's positioning doesn't help either.

KH4 has three so far
KH3 had about 12, not counting commercials or barely changed repeats
Or maybe they'll reveal some worlds together

How long ago was the Age of Fairy Tales?

It was THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO

>>587348852
But was it also in the future?

I heard they are revealing Haunted Mansion in a Nintendo Direct alongside Luigi's Mansion 4

>>587352994
Well depending on what theories you believe in, Sora's and/or Vanitas's future.

>>587353859
MoM isn't vanitas you retard
He isn't sora either

>Corey Burton
A name that flies under the radar within the KH voice cast, but his range is pretty damn good. Voiced like 20 characters in this series.

>>587359012
Kinda funny that he based his Shockwave voice off David Warner's Sark performance only to end up voicing Sark himself.

>>587359012
Yeah he's a great VA

>>587359012
Not a KH Disney character but Ludwig Von Drake is based. One of the best ducks.

Why do you think the Days movie removed Xemnas' line of "Sleep has taken you once again, friend" when Saix and Xemnas were in Roxas' room while he slept and Saix left?

Nothingness

SHITPOSTING CONQUERS ALL THREADS

I only play Villains

Ya know considering how fucking overpowered you were compared to the average fodder enemy by like the third world in kh3 they should make enemies that have some real bullshit going, like the sniperwilds and invisible soldiers in kh1, or the possessors in days where just touching them damages you. I think more enemies should explode or poison you when they die. Environmental hazards too, kh3 had a few of those in monsters inc.

>>587401874
i feel like that always come down to tweaking numbers rather than adding shit onto enemies, like if they're too fodder you just jack up their stats. It's pretty much what critical does anyway

>>587401874
Everyone twoshots you at the start, middle and end of KH3 if you are playing on relevant difficulty

>>587412813
I hate those stupid plushies.

>Says this right after Roxas and Namine go back to himself and Kairi
What the ever loving fuck was Sora's problem?

>>587416076
Roxas and Namine are the good ones

Everytime I think naybe I'm too hard on KH2 fans, they'll some shit like
>why does only KH2 have a system for bosses escaping combos in all of gaming
and get 3K likes on Twitter. They genuinely don't think other games exist sometimes.

30 days bros
Keep the hopium/copium high for our final opportunity of 2026 news

>>587432785
i would've doubted it if they hadn't showed anything at d23 (the achievement leak would've been way funnier in that case), but i think it just makes sense for dorito pope show to have a star wars trailer
then a new trailer at the anniversary, and then the barrage of trailers officially starts as by then it'll be 6ish months before release

>>587416076
>What the ever loving fuck was Sora's problem?

He was based af. I guess KH2 was too dark for the overly soft modern audience to handle. Roxas and Namine weren’t considered real people back then. They were disembodied figments of the heart/soul/body of the person they split off from and the game treated them as such. This was too difficult for fans to handle in their babby Disney game so the next 12 games were dedicated to sanding away all the series rough edges that could possibly make anyone uncomfortable or sad.

Anyone playong kh2 on switch 1?
Anyone else feel like there are some inout issues?

>>587436564
KH2 is a teenager's idea of mature
>grr I'm sassy towards everyone
>look at me pose after doing an attack
>wait I don't actually sing with Ariel, play with Pooh, or get excited for Santa, all that's optional!
Like it has something to prove.

>>587438853
You can say it's a baby or an idiot's idea of mature. Won't change the fact that it's better than what we got in KH3. Sora sounds so whiney and in awe of everything. Sora in KH2 is a sassy, serious, happy-go-lucky troll.

>>587442359
I've always really liked Riku and Mickey's friendship, it has a different feel (for want of a better word) to it than SDG but it's no less endearing or heartfelt for it

>>587444523
It also helps because Riku felt like Sora abandoned him and Kairi back in KH1, which helped push him down the road to darkness. Same thing that happened to Isa when Lea became friends with Roxas and Xion.

>>587416076
Yen Sid the exposition man took care of all the plot exposition in KH2, so Sora skipped over having to do any sort of reflection on the character of his enemies. This is because Nomura was fucking high as shit when writing KH2, trying to hastily wrap up the plot threads from CoM and the beginning of the game that also got shoved into the background. He would realize how fucked up teh writing was when FInal Mix came around because he had Sora actually kind of reflect on this right after in the fight with Xemnas, and much later on in DDD wher he actually remembered Sora is supposed to be an empathetic person.

People like to say Sora lost his edge after KH2 but If anything KH2 Sora is out of character and incosistent with basically every other portryal of Sora.

I have a feeling that Zootopia will actually have a strong presence from the foretellers. The basic plot is that the sheep woman is drugging all the predators with drugs to create fear and have a common target to consolidate power. Underlying themes of discrimination, otherness, and conflict between classes, races, etc. If you pay ANY attention to the story these are conflicts born from different perspectives, which is what Nomura said KH4 had a big part of and what Dark Road basically revolved around.

Why can't I use summons against xigbar?

>>587451534
Summons require active party members, so maybe that's your issue?

I think it's time a KH character lost an arm, leg, or went permanently blind.
