Thoughts on Kingdom Hearts?

>>12688489I dunno why SE didn't published it on GCN/Wii. They fucked up big time, like, seriously, it is so Nintendo coded.
KH1 is good because it's like a disney gamethe others ... not so much...because of squeenix faggotry
>>12688489Cringe ass faggot bullshit that poisoned Final Fantasy and Square Enix forever
>>12688489KH1 is fun but runs a little longKH2 is one of the best action games I ever playedthe aesthetic, plot, and Disney characters are what they are.Hollow Bastion music from KH1 is sublime.
>>12688546>Hollow Bastion music from KH1 is sublime.the gummi ship music hits me in the feels. reminds me of a disney snes game, like snes aladdin cave of wonders
>>12688489darkness
>>12688489I loved the first one. Second one I hated. A lot of people seem to like it for the battle system but I did not enjoy the change at all. Only bad thing about KH1 is the gummy ship shit.
>>12688489Really wanted to play KH1 but the zoomed-in camera gave me some insane motion sickness.
>>12688489Why does he have vagina bones?
Objectively speaking, the games are very flawed in terms of both gameplay and story.Subjectively speaking, the guy who modeled Tinker Bell in the game gave her a pair of incredibly cute pink panties under her skirt, and she flashes the camera every time you summon her. Also, her idle animation is her shaking her hips side to side.I am therefore forced to conclude that they are among the greatest games of all time.
>>12688489Nice tits
>>12688650this post convinced me that i like kingdom hearts now
you guys ever just let the darkness consume you
>>12688563I miss Billy Zane Ansem so much.
I liked FF as a teenager. I did not like Disney.I like FF even more now. I like Disney even less.So I didn't get them, won't emulate them, and refuse to to this day.Just the gay Disney shit and it being action instead of turn-based.I usually don't go into threads to dump on something, especially something I've never played, but you asked.
>>12688506>nintendo out of nowhere
>>12688713To be fair, a mother would rather buy a wholesome-looking Disney game for their kid than Call of Duty. Do you think most GameCube players were buying their own games? He might be onto something. But they had contract deals with Sony iirc.
>>12688489Game made for and by Disney adults, furries and kid diddlers.
>>12688680whenever i play video games
It's weird. And it's weirder still how much people would get into it. And that it took hold with the, let's politely call them, hot topic scene kids. Like I only take a game with Donald and Goofy so seriously and yet here we are screaming about dark and light.
>>12688506How? It was a massive success on the PS2, one of the best selling games.
The games are in an odd spot. They divulge from the JRPG formula that fans of say, FF aren't going to be into them other than the cameos. The premise makes it too kiddish for several there. And the action/movement is too far from Tales or other 6th gen RPGs for it to fit in. It and its sequel are closer to DMC/Ninja Gaiden. But that crowd is not going to play KH so it's off being its own thing. Stranger too is despite its popularity, there wasn't a KH-like. So not much of a lineage. I think both 1 and 2are excellent games.
>>12688489It's an extremely interesting premise to me and i enjoy the game play (of the first game) but i absolutely hate 90% of Disney stuff. Despite that, there is a concept under the skin there that i really dig and can appreciate it despite the skin it often wears.
>>12688546Combat felt like a downgrade in 2 with trying to be diet DMC and every enemy having a quick time event attached to it.
>>12688853I always thought it was sick that these games had real-time combat. I always wanted Final Fantasy to have that. I imagined playing FFVII but you're running around as Cloud swinging his big ass sword around. I would have given both of my testicles for that at the time.
>>12688489dad walks in-core
>>12688862>I imagined playing FFVII but you're running around as Cloud swinging his big ass sword aroundunfortunately, this wasn't the only thing the demake took from kingdom hearts.
>>12688825I think the contrasts prevalent throughout the franchise are a big part of the appeal for a lot of fans. Anime-ish Final Fantasy designs contrasted with traditional Disney character designs, Final Fantasy style worlds contrasted with cartoony Disney worlds, you'd assume they'd all have baby-tier gameplay but some of the bosses particularly the bonus bosses can be very difficult, you'd assume that a game where you visit seemingly disconnected Disney settings alongside Donald and Goofy would have basically no plot yet the franchise has an intentionally convoluted and ever-expanding plot. Like that period of time in the 90s when urban Looney Tunes were a thing.
>>12688870it creates a very specific feel you can't get anywhere else.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-zuFjI-YnU
>>12688870I just really love the concept of a game where each world is inspired by classic literature and fairy tales. I would like it more though if it was Square's interpretation of them instead of Disney's sanitized versions. Like imagine the original plot of the Little Mermaid in the hands of an eccentric jap game story director.
>>12688872Donald Duck should never say the word Sephiroth
>>12688884I was obsessed with this idea as a kid. I used to create my own roleplaying games where I'd get my friends to pretend we were traveling to different worlds based on different movies and games and teaming up with the characters. Probably the most autistic I ever was as kid.
>>12688713Chain of Memories was a GBA exclusive literally because Square and Disney both said "we want the Nintendo audience" with their new hit franchise. Nomura wanted the KH series to be a Playstation exclusive.
>>12688893Imagine Sora teaming up with Tony Montana to kill cockroach heartless
>>12688680You know, the talk of light and darkness is just classic NES FF jargon.
>>12688489This has to be the gayest image humanly conceivable.
>>12688489i liked 1 + 2 when i was a kid because there wasnt many/any good 3D ARPGs yet. i havent even thought about trying to replay either since demon souls came out tho. i feel like that game basically did what i wanted KH to do anyways aka be a gud ARPG with no 10min unskippable cutscenes of disney/FF stupidity, so i just played the souls games as they came out instead and forgot about the KH series entirely.whenever i think back on it too hard, the first thing that comes to mind is an evanesence FMV intro, and i shove that memory back where it belongsboth were rly well designed action games for when they came out tho. thats undeniable
>>12688489Unironically a lightning in a bottle.
>>12689698Most SE shit is like that.
