Sora's Spellican battle (The fist battle, in Traverse Town, which had 3 - or 2, I may be mistaken - battles in a row) was pretty hard for me.
But TWTNW... that was hard. Especially those Aura Lions. I hated those.
NOT A SPOILER, JUST SOMETHING THAT MAY NOT BE RELEVANT >>>
I even found a Battle Spot (where you link with another Spirit) and there was a Blue Aura lion that came out, which was incredibly hard to beat. Even when I did beat it, it respawned a few seconds later! And the worst part was, it said I'd get a prize if I beat it in 20 seconds! It took me about 5-10 minutes just to beat the first one!
Also,
Young Xehanort
battle was quite hard, but I loved it! What's the point in having an easy battle?
Unfortunately though, I found the
Nightmare Ventus Armour
very easy. I only died once, and that was only because I wasn't sure what to do in that final attack moment (I thought I had to block, but I didn't)
Anyway, I just wanted to make a small thread of my notes on the story so far. I'll MOSTLY be talking about the actual Kingdom Hearts part of the story, but may talk about some Disney elements. Some of my notes may be wrong. Like the second one, for example. Confirmed:
[*=left]Most Organization members are back.
[*=left]The scene where Xehanort stabs Braig is after they wake up after being recompleted, turning him into a Heartless, and therefore a Nobody, again.
[*=left]Two Organization members (from Radiant Garden) are not there. Dilan and Isa.
[*=left]Ienzo tells Lea that if the world that the come from is no longer there, they go to Traverse Town.
[*=left]
Stated in game, but may not be true
[*=left]The Grid is not a Dream World. It's a Real World.
My Thoughts:
[*=left]The scene at the beginning with Xehanort stabbing Braig is how Braid turned into a Heartless, and thus creating Xigbar.
[*=left]Something's up with Joshua... I can tell he's up to something...
[*=left]Indeed, something's up with him. I'm on the 2nd visit to Traverse Town with both characters. When Sora gets there, Joshua tells him that Riku's here too. But he says the same to Riku about Sora. Surely, one'd have to come to Traverse Town before the other, yet to both characters, when they join, he says the other is already there. Strange, right? Maybe it has something to do with the "Time" thing that, well, Joshua, was going on about...
[*=left]Ok, maybe not.
[*=left]Riku WASN'T in Sora's dreams in Traverse Town (both visits), but WAS in other worlds.
I thought I might as well make this the Unofficial Official Dive Stage Discussion.
So, yeah. What do you guys think of it? Goes it replace the Gummi Ship levels well, or would you prefer them instead? I love the Dive stages, but I like the Gummi ship stages (mainly the ones in KH2) more.
And what about the attacks in the dive stages? There's only the "Faster! Faster!" dash attack (which I can't remember the name of), and nothing to do with the keyblade, or shooting. I personally think they did that quite well.
