Waving at the human to get his attention, a cheerful expression came on the knight's face at meeting someone new. "It's super swell to meet ya, I'm Goofy!

The wave got his attention as Terra stopped whatever he was doing and responded to the wave and the greeting with his out, yet also a question. "Name's Terra. What brings you to the land of departure?" It was uncommon to get surprise visitors, but not unusual so Terra didn't ask anything more. "If you are looking for master Eraquis he's away at the moment." His best guess for Goofy being here.

What hairstyle is better?

Pre-Heartless/DDD cut or Heartless cut

The bottom one looks way better on the model, like it looks more natural and blends in better.

Then on the heartless cut, it is all choppy and you can pick out each hair layer which isn't a good thing. It looks like sticks and it looks odd on him. The top one is just off in general.

I mean the heartless did get him a haircut so that's probably why he looks choppy but still... Maybe that's why in the secret ending Riku hair looks way better and smoother because he actually did something to his hair.

He probably was distracted with the ending battle with Xehanort not to care and finally fixed it or while Sora's disappearance FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR sadden him, his hair grew on its own and did something to look a bit better.

Having recently finished KH3 and currently getting destroyed in the ReMind DLC, I can say Kingdom Hearts has been a wonderful journey so far. There has been some good and bad, but I have genuinely enjoyed this series for what it is.

[teecupangel]

I just had a random plot bunny attack me at work. What if Desmond Miles was reborn as Sora from Kingdom Hearts with no memories of his former life? He goes through Kingdom Hearts (the first game) as normal but once we hit Chain of Memories things start to change. The plot of CoM is Memories and what is and isn't real. As Marluxia (or was it Axel) put it, "To lose is to find, and to find is to lose." Rather than Namine, Sora begins to remember his life as Desmond Miles. Kinda scaring Donald and Goofy. However it kinda goes away for a bit when Namine restores Sora's memories, for Kingdom Hearts 2 and Dream Drop. Yet Kingdom Hearts 3 is where it can get interesting again. Change out one of the 13 vessels for either Clay or Lucy and have Sora start to have an existential crisis and by the time of the Remind DLC when Sora uses the power of waking to save his friends, it's such a Desmond move that both parts of him are at peace.

Then he wakes up back on earth near the Grand Temple 11 years later, as the sixteen or seventeen year old Sora, or is it Desmond?

I’m gonna be honest with you, my highschool crush was Roxas so I wanna keep him in this idea but, my god, it would be so fun if Sora’s ‘nobody’ turns out to be one of his Bleeds.

But… we can actually keep Roxas since his looks is based on Ventus who was resting in Sora’s heart but we hint at his connection with Desmond Miles by making the prologue of KH2 dwell on his family and it’s talked about how he has an older brother, younger sister and younger brother. Namine later admitted that she wasn’t the one who wrote that in. It was Roxas himself who added that ‘detail’. ‘DiZ’ suggested that it was Roxas’ subconscious taking a bit of ‘memory’ from Sora but that doesn’t make sense when Riku tells him that Sora was an only child.

The real reason why they needed Roxas to merge with Sora is because Sora’s memories and Desmond Miles’ memories are not stable. His experience in Castle Oblivion and Namine’s powers only served to widen the gap between the two sets of memories.

Roxas, being both Sora and Desmond as his nobody, is meant to cover the gaps to stabilize him.

When the time came when Roxas and Sora became one, Desmond Miles’ memories go to sleep to stabilize Sora.

It wasn’t what DiZ wanted. He believed Desmond Miles’ memories was necessary for Sora to grow and defeat Organization 13 but they have no idea why Desmond Miles’ memories refused to resurface.

Until…

KH3 happens and everyone remembers Xion.

Because sure, one of the 13 vessels turn out to be Lucy or Clay (or maybe even Cross) but the most they were able to do was tell Sora that he wasn’t the chosen one. Desmond Miles was the chosen one. He just so happened to be a vessel to the real chosen one and Xehanort’s goal had been to awaken Desmond Miles to control Kingdom Hearts because Kingdom Hearts was an ‘artifact’ from another dimension that appeared in their dimension.

And Desmond Miles was an otherwordly soul, the only being that can control Kingdom Hearts.

And the reason why Sora can’t fully remember his life as Desmond Miles?

Because he wasn’t the true vessel.

See…

Desmond’s true vessel wasn’t actually Sora.

It was Ventus.

Sora was a ‘replacement’ because of what happened to Ventus.

And that was why Xion doesn’t have any of Desmond Miles’ memories nor did she ever take his face. She was an imperfect replica so she wasn’t capable of even trying to hold Desmond’s memories in the first place.

Cue Sora having an existential crisis of who he truly was because he was honestly getting on board with the whole idea of being Desmond Miles as well.

As much as I, um, dislike Lea, I think it's so cute how Saïx brought Roxas and Xion back specifically for him.

He made sure that Lea still had friends just in case he perished indefinitely. He was willing to lose himself into darkness forever for Lea, but before that, he hatched a plan with Vexen and Demyx to make sure Roxas and Xion got their bodies back. Like wow babe you really brought back my favs.

And in the Re:mind DLC, he kept reminding (😏) Xion who she was which ultimately made her lose it. Probably made her gain back all those memories she had, and forced her to remember who she was and what her purpose was. Even when he didn't get the whole deal about Xion, he still wanted her around Lea.

He had the most subtle redemption arc in KH3, and his shit was more believable than what the fuck Xehanort had going on 😒

I still feel like they should've shot that nigga Xehanort dead in his face.

But yeah, like sure he didn't apologize (apologies in Japanese games are like,, non-existent), but he did it in his own way.

Like "Hey, I was mean to y'all before and you hated me, but I need you to be there for Lea... So he doesn't cry like a bitch. K thanks. Here's y'all's bodies back."

And Roxas saying something along the lines of "I owe my return to many" and "The people's hearts you think you've won over aren't really on your side" to Xemnas, like sure he could've been talking about the BULK of the real OG13, but his keyblade was pointed DIRECTLY at Saïx.

Ugh it was so subtle.

Anyways, love KH3. Good game :)

Also I love my husband 🥰🥰😘😘

HOLY FUCK (slay the princess spoilers!!)

The Narrator explains that the more you walk away from the cabin the more paths appear that lead to the cabin until its all laid out before you that everywhere you go leads to the cabin its impossible to not get to the cabin (at least as far as you know...) and this visual representation of the meta presence of every possible branching path in slay the princess drawn so clearly is BLOWING MY MIND!!!!

usually with meta it stays purely of the mind in video games its kind of hard to portray the eldritch horror of a consciousness of the "rules" of this universe, everything to do with being 'unchained' in kh, the matrix, the good place does this, cartoons like adventure time do this, a wrinkle in time does this, a game that i can think of that actually does do this is life is strange the ability to time travel and realm jump and if i remember correctly seeing the butterfly itself is showing tangible proof of the butterfly effect and it truly is almost some like deific being exacting these events and forming a connection with max (god that reminds me life is strange is so good i was OBSESSED with it) but with video games its not usually tangible its not a place you can go and see and live in because of modeling and this shows how much being 2d really helps slay the princess in portraying the multiverse the multiselves theuniverse shattering reality bending stuff that is going on and it is SO WELL DONE every piece of art is so beautiful and breathtaking god i love this GAME!!!! (kh has also done this with 2d they established it in khux and worked it out in kh3/the dlc!! 2d rules theres so many anime movies that are "trippy" but its this god i love meta so so much it makes my mind feel good mmm i love stp so much

[hyouta]

I have completed KH3 + ReMind

(Just to be clear, I have watched the Limit Cut episode but I haven't fought any data boss or Yozora - not sure when I plan to because I haven't tackled many secret bosses in the series yet...)

So, everyone was just mean about this game then. I don't remember how well it was received by fans at launch but I wonder if it's just the trend of hating on a game a few weeks after most people have played. (I don't care I will defend TOTK until I'm dead lmao). Though also, people have just gotten a lot meaner about things these days...

I'm not sure how I would rank the series overall because I didn't really dislike anything in the end (*cough* ReCom *cough* -- even that I enjoyed by the end)... maybe it's also recency bias again but...

358/2 days

Dream Drop Distance

Kingdom Hearts 3

I said what I said. (Actually, can it even be recency bias if I played the series basically back to back for the past few months?).

My opinion is subject to change... but right now, even though I do see the flaws, these are my favs. I don't think it's a perfect story and there's definitely things I would prefer to be different but it honestly earns number 3 for sea salt fam being united by the end of it lol... I'm a simple person.

NOTES (Again, I made quite a few but I'll pick a small handful -- I wanna say more but my original notes are like 9 pages long):

Got super teary eyed and emotional watching the Don't Think Twice orchestral opening movie... this was an incredible experience.

The graphical upgrade is cool but sometimes the lighting really makes the gameplay models look weird. Especially in the mysterious tower.

"Darkness from being alone is even stronger" ow.

I would not recommend playing the dlc DIRECTLY after the main campaign, it was weird having the cutscenes repeated at me even with the slight changes.

Admittedly even with the dlc I'm still not sure I fully understand how Xion came to be again; not the replica part, but the heart part. She was created from memories to begin with but then returned to Sora's heart... but unlike Ventus and Roxas, was never shown leaving? Like, the memories did, but I had to read the wiki (which I still take with a grain of salt) to understand how she got her heart back from Sora.

Despite my love for the reunions I think the keyblade graveyard had a lot of weak parts, in terms of storyboarding/direction. It just bothered me how much standing around and not reacting there was. It was high tension but then that'd get yanked away by characters just standing still or walking slowly.

(It was funnier than it needed to be imagining each boss wait for others to have their death cutscene before fighting me again).

The Terranort scene bothered me the most, and it's a shame because of how often you have to watch that scene. Though I did see a post on my fyp literally today about how characters like Kairi would have been frozen from trauma and YOU KNOW I forgive that scene a bit, but wish it actually showed that more.

Speaking of showing more. I think way back when before I played it myself I complained saying Re Mind should have been a part of the main game (and I don't mean an episode, post-game). Now that I've actually played it, I only half agree. I think there was still huge plot points that should've been main game, but I understand how the saving Kairi sequence wouldn't fit, in the way it is written.

Leave the disney worlds alone. They're actually so good in this game, I love the size of them! I wish there was more to explore but they've really stepped it up. This should be the standard of how big worlds should be at the MINIMUM.

My biggest complaint about KH3 is actually what they did to 100 acre wood, how we got the same minigame 3 times... besides torn pages there surely could have been a better way to give us more.

Fuck the cherry flan in particular (the others are fine/fun).

KH3 is so funny actually, one of the funniest in the series.

Lucky emblems and classic kingdom were really fun collectables, I managed to find everything before I did the endgame. More like that, please.

--Actually, I have too many notes for real and though I don't think they're that big I can't pick what to add without making this too long so I'll skip.

Keeping in mind that I really loved KH3 and it's my number 3, I think it's biggest problem is having too many characters to juggle and too many arcs to wrap up. I honestly think this game would have benefitted more from being longer, and/or having a bunch of mini episodic games to occur before it (like 0.2 length).

I loved loved loved getting to play as other characters here and there, especially in the DLC (Kairi's play style is so fun? hello? - but also Saïx almost ended me as Roxas). I wish there were more instances of this, and hope we have more in the future.

This was probably one of the easiest games (I died ONCE and that was against a heartless ship I was too slow to escape from) but I think that's more to do with how much freedom you have in terms of battle options. I don't know why people complained about the attractions because I swear besides 2 instances they were optional (and shut up, they were so fun and whimsical, I only didn't use them in the keyblade graveyard/scala ad caelum).

I don't necessarily agree with some of the takes I've seen regarding characterisation, usefullness etc but again, don't want this to be too long. I will say probably the bit I was most ? about was Xemnas' death and what he had to say, but maybe that's just me.

I actually finished on Friday, found out it was the 6th anniversary Saturday and wanted to post for then, but honestly I needed time to think on my feelings. I need to find a way to get them out but I'm not sure how in a way that is not too text heavy and boring.

tl;dr KH3 really good cause now I have these:

2020 Memories: Kingdom Hearts III ReMIND DLC

AKA the real finale to the Dark Seeker Saga, and to Kingdom Hearts as a whole as far as I'm gonna be concerned. And I was actually skeptical about this DLC when it was first announced and showcased to us in teasers, feeling like it was just set to add insult on top of injury to a perfectly alright game that was also an underwhelming and massively disappointing concluding chapter to a story that had already become a massive disappointment for a whole ass decade.

By the final promotional trailer, I saw enough promising features that made my suck it up and get the thing. And at its start, it's really not very impressive. It immediately throws a bunch of useless, terribly written nonsequiturs at you made for the purpose of "clarification" but in true Nomura fashion only further complicate things, and then takes us back to Sora using the Power of Waking to locate and save Kairi at the end of KH3, leading to more convoluted Power of Waking, The Final World, Time Travelling, Heart Out Of Body Experience bullshit that improves the proceedings in the Keyblade Graveyard in only a few places but is otherwise not much better than what came before, downright nonsensical and contradictory at worst, to the point where you have to fight most of the boss fights from the games' final stretch all over again. Much as I appreciated fixes such as more proactive and useful contributions from the female cast and finally having Christopher Lloyd voicing Master Xehanort like he ought to have been the first KH3 around, it was incredibly awkward and shaky.

But then something happens after Sora finally reaches the point he'd wanted to and follows his past self and past Donald and Goofy through the portal of Master Xehanort's heart to Scala Ad Caelum. From an actually fully playable and explorable Scala Ad Caelum and onward, shit gets good. Like, really genuinely surprisingly good.

Everything in this section of the DLC feels like the big, stupid, over-the-top flashy and even emotionally resonant grand finale we were promised and should have had in the initial rollout of KH3. It's not KH2's finale, it's not even KH1's finale, but it's actually workable, appropriate, and largely satisfying as a final sequence for this story. The playable portion where King Mickey makes his big stand and walks towards the big shiny keyhole even against an all-out assault from the Xehanort Replicas is particularly powerful and memorable, and the final boss battle that soon follows is a perfect counterpart piece to Sora, Donald, and Goofy's big fight going on at the same time, ending on a note where you feel as though the evil that's been plaguing this universe and these characters has been truly, utterly, finally vanquished, and the happy ending everyone gets afterwards sits more right with you when Sora and Kairi are revealed to have been part of it all the entire time. Well, at least until Sora still has to fade from reality, but he's in Smash Bros. Ultimate now, so no biggie!

Ignoring the remaining DLC content of Limit Cut Episode aside from the Data Greeting feature, some returning Final Fantasy characters, and some unwinnable boss fights, it's a fine note to leave KH on.

KINGDOM HEARTS 3 ReMind

Effectively made KH3 classic for me. Better moves, tough superbosses, Playable Kairi, the Guardians team up, Mickey's MGS4 microwave moment, Yozora. I haven't been this catered to since KH2's endgame. There were a few HUGE issues but I mostly enjoyed myself with this dlc.

Luxord subtly hints at Sora’s unavoidable fate. He skillfully foreshadows Sora’s actions both in the later parts of Kingdom Hearts 3 and throughout the KH3 Remind DLC.

🍄 go to a farmer's market (Aqua)

Autumn ask meme The sights and smells of the farmer's market was new to Terra, and not a place he had ever thought of himself going. However, here he was looking at all the produce and walking from stall to stall with Aqua. He was currently at a stall that sold apples, taking a close look at them, they were a bright red in color but there were a few that were green and caught his eye more than the red ones. "Hey Aqua, you interested in an apple if I were to buy a few?" He'd shout towards her, just to make sure she could hear him well.

[empyreasheart]

FOR THE ASKS!!!! 20 and 30!! (axel voice TWO?? (i hope its ok that im asking 2)) (also i know the post came out before kh3 dropped but i see it as what would you change/what were your biggest hopes even after its out)

Hey, you could ask all 40 for all i care. i love you.

20. hopes changes for kingdom hearts 3

HOO BOY. well my FIRST change would be to involve all the girls in the story more - kairi not being pushed to the sidelines and having the same involvement in the story as riku did, anti aqua being a real villain or at least aqua's return being less underwhelming, xion being present in the game before the very end, if not as a familiar hooded figure than at least a ghost that haunts sora and co. and keep naminé influencing the events behind the scenes but actually SHOW her doing so instead of revealing it in a dlc

secondly, id give the former nobodies more depth than just switching to the good side now that theyre people again. i dont think axel & the other nobodies should have lost their old nasty habits or messed up morals just like that. it would be interesting if they all were still grappling with that while trying to readjust to life as a former nobody. i would also particularly adjust saïx's story, because honestly his redemption & change of heart just came out of no where to me. i dont mind him being recompleted but it lacked build up and just feels so different from the saïx we saw in previous games. i think he should of appeared in one of the worlds and foreshadowed his redemption instead of it happening out of no where at the end. (also i would return his hair to light blue)

30. favourite unversed

very basic answer but probably floods. they just have such a satisfying creature design and they remind me of my dear nico <3 i also like shoegazer because its very funny to me that its a shoe
