I wasn't sure where to post this since it's just a general Kingdom Hearts topic. Mods feel free to move it if there's a better location. Do you all like the similarities between various characters throughout the series? Here's some examples I thought of off the top of my head. (Spoilers from basically every game btw) Spoiler Similar Name: Master Xehanort, Xehanort the apprentice Ansem the wise, Ansem (Heartless), Riku (as Ansem) Riku, Riku Replica Terra, Terranort Ventus, Vanitas x-blade, Keyblade --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Similar appearance: Sora, Vanitas Roxas, Ventus Riku, Riku Replica Organization XIII and their former selves Terra, Terranort, Xehanort the apprentice, Xemnas Master Xehanort, Terranort, Xehanort the apprentice, Xemnas, Ansem (heartless), Riku (as Ansem) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Similar connections: Sora, Vanitas, Ventus, Roxas, Xion, Namine, Kairi Riku, Riku Replica, Riku (as Ansem), Ansem (heartless) Terra, Master Xehanort, Terranort, Xehanort the apprentice, Xemnas, Ansem (heartless) Normal worlds, Worlds in Sora's memory, Worlds coded into data, Sleeping worlds I've heard a lot of people say they like the plot of KH1 the most because the sequels can get pretty confusing for your average player. Do you think these character parallels add depth to the series and make it more interesting, or would you rather everything be more clearly laid out?
Tangled would be a perfect world for the series. I haven't seen Brave yet so I can't see anything about that one. The Jungle Book will probably be added eventually since it was created but unused in BBS. (A boss fight against Shere Kahn could be awesome). I think it would be really cool to have a world based on the movie Mickey and the Beanstalk...I think this could be set up as a sort of atypical world similar to Timeless River. Some other worlds I hope return for KH3 are Pinochio's world (not Monstro), Neverland (not on Hook's ship), Enchanted Dominion (for a final showdown with Malificent), and Snow White's world. Sorry that's kind of a long list lol.
I think I was around level 50 when I beat him. I just started a level 1 CM game though, so that will change pretty soon :)
Yeahh I went there. This is the game to end all boredom :D It can get pretty addictive when there's nothing else to do. What are some of your high scores? Right now mine is at 62,140,272 (about 20 million without second shot bonuses). Spoiler Here's a small guide I put together after figuring things out along the way. I think there are ways to hack the game to make your score go through the roof, but this obviously won't be using anything like that. Anyway, I hope it's helpful :) Basic Tips:-Fully upgrade all of your power ups. That's a no brainer :p -Focus more on surviving than grabbing every coin on the course. -There are basically three motions in the game: jumping, ducking & turning. You can cancel any motion into any other motion. You can even cancel a jump into another jump as soon as you hit the ground. This can make reacting to obstacles much easier once you're running at full speed. Bonus Targets:-You will come across at least one bonus area every time you enter the part of the course that you started on.-Shooting targets is extremely easy once you get the hang of it. You don't have to aim, swipe or anything fancy. Just tap the side of the screen that the target is on. -There will never be obstacles in the bonus area. -Try to get good at shooting targets on reaction while using the speed boost power up. -Sometimes you'll come across a power up while in the middle of a bonus area. If this happens you can do a "jump shot" in order to grab the power up and shoot a target at the same time. This is done by swiping up and either right or left depending on which side the target is on. -To get the "Sharpshooter" achievement, you will probably have to run about 40,000 meters. (Good luck!) Resurrects:-Resurrects are the #1 key to success. They're cheap and you can hold a maximum of 99 at a time. Keep one of these active at all times and you will be nearly invincible.-Resurrects have a cooldown time of about 15 seconds. Wisp World:-You are sent into Wisp World for about 10 seconds after obtaining the wisp power up. -Wisp World is no different than the regular world except that it is night time, there are no power ups, and you collect wisps instead of coins. -After collecting a certain number of wisps you will be given a wisp boost that slows down your movement speed for about 6 seconds. This boost can be activated whenever you choose. -The best time to activate the wisp boost is while your resurrect is on cooldown. Second Shot:-Second shot is a new power up that was added in the lastest update of the game. You don't have to buy this power up from the store and it can't be upgraded.-Second shot is by far the best powerup in the game. It's really overpowered right now so I hope it gets fixed eventually. For every one of these you collect, you receive a random bonus at the end of your run. The bonus can range from absolutely nothing to adding lots of points to your score, or even making it easier to gain points on your next run. Other Power Ups:-Coin magnet is the second best power up you can get. It triples the value of all coins, making blue coins 6 times the normal coin value.-Speed boost is another great power up as it puts the game on auto pilot and sends you 600 meters further. -Head start boosts are only worth using if you have extra coins to spend. I'd suggest holding off on these until you've bought and upgraded everything else in the store. King Fergus:-King Fergus is a new character that can be played in the latest version of the game. It costs 500,000 points to unlock him. I haven't unlocked him yet, but I'll update this section once I do.
Have any other Kingdom Hearts games been announced only for Japan at first? I'm just wondering if this is a common trend with the series.
This is the only game I'm looking forward to more than the Kingdom Hearts HD remix. It seems like Injustice will keep a lot of the system mechanics from Mortal Kombat, with some added elements from Capcom games that will hopefully give it more depth. (No block button for example). This game will be nothing like MK vs DC by the way :) A few MK9 tournament players have already played beta versions of the game, and the reviews are really positive.
I found "movie" versions of every Kingdom Hearts game on youtube (except Dream Drop Distance). Most of the movies also include the text cutscenes as well as boss fights. This is definitely how I'll be watching the games I haven't played. Huge credits to the guys who took time to edit all this stuff together :D If anyone's interested, I put all the movies into one playlist for myself on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuvwJkz0Nv_wBGl7yFzZX60KzVZvUmMW-&feature=view_all
Going with 625 on this one
Hmmmm, I'll go with 936
Awesome man I'm looking forward to it :D
Yeah my main concern was missing parts of the story that happen through text. I'll probably watch BBS and 3D first since I can compile the cutscenes all together like a movie instead of clicking from one to the next. Then for the other games I'll either wait for the HD remix (in America of course :)) or watch a walkthrough. Thanks for the advice everybody
Thanks. Chain of Memories had such a good story, its a shame it didn't get as much attention as KH1 and KH2. I'm hoping the others will be just as good :)
Hey guys. I don't own a psp or nintendo DS so I haven't been able to play Days, BBS, Re:Coded or Dream Drop Distance. I was just wondering if I would be able to follow the plot to any of these four titles just by watching the cutscene archives on this site. Thanks for the help.
That helps a ton, thanks. I had been using more than 1 enemy card at a time so that was my problem. I meant to post this thread in the Re:Com section but I guess it doesnt make a difference :p
What is the duration time of enemy cards? For example, when i use vexen's card at the beginning of the match it wont revive me if i have been fighting for a long period of time. Do enemy cards like this one only stay active for a limited time? How do i use 0 cards effectively? I know its a dumb question lol. I remember at the beginning of the game it explains that 0 cards are the most powerful cards when used at the end of your deck and the least powerful when used earlier. Does that mean I need to only use 0 cards after using all other cards? Thanks in advance for the help :)
Oh ok, well i only own kh2fm+ so i just assumed. But my point is still the same that they released english voice acting on japanese games in the past, so maybe it will be possible in the future.
Even if the HD remix is a Japanese release only, I wonder if it might have the option to choose between English & Japanese voices similar to the final mix games. If that's the case I will definitely be buying it.
That theory makes a lot of sense, thanks for clearing that up
Since anytime a nobody is created its heartless is also created, who are the heartless of the Organization members & what happened to them? I've never played any of the handheld games so I might be missing something here. We know who Xemnas' heartless is (Ansem) as well as Roxas' heartless (heartless-Sora). What about the others?
Axel data is by far my favorite but since this isnt final mix I went with Xigbar. The first fight against Axel is at too low level to be really fun imo
