The Kingdom Hearts chat has been growing around here because some how the third (read ACTUALLY 9th or 10th) game is finally coming out, and even the theme song for the new one is a silly crossover:
Music for the trailer featured excerpts of the brand-new original Kingdom Hearts III opening theme song, titled, “Face My Fears,” produced in collaboration with internationally renowned singer-songwriter Hikaru Utada, eight-time Grammy Award winning artist Skrillex and acclaimed record producer Poo Bear. The song will be available on Jan. 18, 2019.
But yeah, I am just starting this thread to coral KH shit as much as possible, because otherwise it will infect everything. KH is a virus.
Chi (the upside-down X one) (One could argue that Chi Back Cover is separate as apparente it adds some stuff , but.)
0.2: Birth by Sleep – A Fragmentary Passage
which is 9 (with the last being debatable because it is basically a demo). Sure there are remakes and movie versions, but I don’t tend to count those as separate games, so what are you adding to the list?
There’s an old Disney-made mobile KH that everyone has forgotten because it was crap and not part of continuity, and Kingdom Hearts Mobile, a social oriented game. You’re right that 0.2 is debatable, though.
I’ll certainly watch some parts of Let’s Plays of this game just to get a feel for it and see some wacky stuff. So if anyone here wants to do that I’ll gladly watch your stream/videos
Mobile doesn’t really have any story stuff in it, and launched along with Coded, which is where the story stuff is. This probably explains why everyone (self-included) doesn’t bother with it, but you are right, it does exist.
Man, that VCAST Disney-made mobile game sounds weird as hell, as it takes place in a nightmare Sora caused by Maleficent, but like Mobile, this story never gets referenced in the other games, which sure seems like a good idea.
The problem is that the wacky stuff often isn’t in the actual playing parts of the game, but really in the beginning and end of the games. The middle tends to be a lot of replaying Disney movie plots, only by hitting things with a giant key.
I can plug my own podcast here,Labyrinth of Worlds, or the episode of Hinge Problems that Rudie linked above. Honestly, I don’t know how much extra plot you are going to need for 3 except maybe the understanding of the existence of the 3 characters in Birth by Sleep (who are the knights from the secret ending to KH2). I can try to write a recap of it so far here later, but that is going to be…complicated.
huh, OK.
i loved the DS version of this game for its approach, but never looked back, even though i technically could play it now, no longer win phone et al… but somehow, i hsve seen all there was, and don’t feel the urge to go back.
reKH3:
Nomura X Disney X SQEX2018 sounds like you never can be sure what you’ll be encountering, so i will be sitting on my fence and wait for a good while…
