Dream Drop Distance I want to hear some opinions on something...

Ok so my Idea behind my latest Keyblade was a fusion between 2 other keyblades. It turned out great and I coined the term 'Keyfuse' but what I want to know is do you think the idea of fusing things together to make something more powerful is overrated?

I think it is a matter of how often it is used. If it's used too much then i would say yes but if not then no. What are your thoughts?

(for those of you who want to see the result of the keyblade: http://www.kh-vids.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=29309&d=1320690724 )

 

Neat! What two Keyblades?

It doesn't seem overrated to me. Sure, it gets used a LOT these days, but it would still be neat in a KH game. It would have to use a different format than other games though.

 

Sounds like the next step of Drive gauges to me. The idea of fusing keyblades...little shaky on it to be honest. It COULD be good if it's done right, but..yeah fusions tend to have a habit of becoming overpopulated and ruin the game/show (yes i'm referring to DBZ).

 

Keyfuses sound's really good. It sounds like it would add some more customization. Knowing Square-Enix, if they do take this idea to mind, they wouldn't go overboard.

 

Sounds cool, it would add to the RPG feel as you're bound to find fusion of weapons or some such in a SE RPG, like Final Fantasy.

 

If this idea is used, it makes me think if they could do something similar to the Materia system in FFVII or the customization in FFX. Like the command system in BBS, we could meld spells and attacks together into the Keyblade. Hm.

 

I'm gonig to move this to Kingdom hearts 3D as it's main discussion is about future games.

I do quite like this idea though, it kind of reminds me of how you can attach upgrades to the keyblades in KH Days to possibly change the blade's appearance. I think being able to merge keyblades would take up a lot of memory and it may not be needed although it does seem like a very interesting aspect to add to the game as it doesn't make it so monotonous.

 

It is a concept I've used in RPs a couple of times with mixed results. I personally think it could work if designed by someone more skilled than me.

We see the χ-blade has two link points. It just also has a special keychain that used both. Potentially if the blade ever became playable then that could be the key fuse medium. But that seems like it would have to be late game KH3 so that makes it a bit harder to justify.

 

Well, it all depends on how realistic the fusion would be.

If the power level increases a bit then I think it's fine. If you fuse the Ultima Weapon with another Keyblade and say that it has infinite power, then it becomes a bit annoying.

Also, I can see a bit of the Oblivion in your fusion but which other Keyblade did you use...? I can't tell.

 

First off, I want to say how surprised i was at the feedback. Second, this isn't a keyfuse of ANY Keyblade in a game to date. It was a keyfuse between two of my other created keyblades:

Cosmic Warrior
and
Universal Conquest

It does kinda look like oblivion though...

 

Eh, I guess. Not really something you'd expect. Like the others said, it's cool, but unnecessary.

 

I honestly don't have a problem with it at all
Just as long it doesn't look to familiar as the original two items

 

Fusing two keyblades together...
Oblivion and Oathkeeper...
I shall call it... Oathlivion.
Oblivion's Oath?
Yep.

I think it would be a pretty good idea, actually. But used only like a Drive Form. Where you have one certain moment you can do that sort of thing.

 

Given that we have the command fusion systems in BBS and Re:Coded as well as the panel...connection...things in Days, this seems like the logical next step to customizing your character. It would have to work similarly to the command fusion system in Re:Coded though. Level them up properly, and then be allowed to have them both equipped at the same time to allow new/shared abilities. It would also have to be not so much "fusion" and more "stat/ability combination." They'd have their abilities combined or active at the same time and the "top" Keyblade would be what you see in the field, possibly with both keychains to signify that they were combined. If they do it like that, I'm all for it.

 

So, in essence and in short, this is a good idea. So it could be done and be done right, considering this is Square Enix. But then again it is indeed an unnecessary feature and the series could go on without. However, it could be added to make things a bit more interesting.

I specially like the "Keyfusing" term you came up with. Moreover, the notion of finding fragments of a keyblade to build a keyblade itself seems a bit more interesting to me at least; more like I prefer "Keycrafting" to "Keyfusing".

 

maybe you could make your own keys and that shizz,

it would be cool, the keys with more advantages and more power, i made on my self

but yhea it would be cool.

 

MAN! Keycrafting would be awesome! I think it would be great if there was something like a special slot, where you can create a keyblade, and depending how you build it, it would have a different range/power/speed/ability (like re:coded), but you could only have one, and for you to make another, you would have to break the previous one, and the ultimate combination would make the ultima key.

 

Custom Keyblade

that would actually be pretty damn cool. i mean it could be pretty damn good feature to make an custom keyblade. imagine you can pick one keyblade effect (finishing plus, ground combo boost, etc) and merge magic boost and drive boost to it. im sure if we are talking about kh Nomura would do it perfectly.
