I can’t wait until I can buy Kingdom Hearts The Final Mixed Series in 10yrs will all the games on one disc… though who am I kidding, physical media will be gone by then.
I loved Kingdom Hearts 3 regardless of the masses saying otherwise. It’s my opinion, and I’m sticking to it. I’ve been around since 1, all the way til it’s end.
Nomura should have been allowed to do FFXV without distractions. Now we gotta see his vision through Disney themed lenses. The first few FFXV trailers were very different than the final product we ended up getting.
No thank you.
Nomura was literally the reason that vsXIII never finished, and languished in development hell for years until he was taken off the project and it was rebooted as XV under a new game director who had to salvage and reuse as much as he could from Nomura’s assets and work and put out a game. This is not to trash Nomura, but vs. XIII was a concept of a game, with tech demos, it but never a game built on a solid foundation.
Nomura is talented in many ways, but he has let projects overwhelm him in the past, and seems best positioned as a producer or scenario and art lead rather than the game director.
Good! More franchises should conclude. Give them a proper happy ending and move onto new stories. Instead of milking every last penny and wallowing in franchise rot.
The series died after KH2
I enjoyed 358/2 and Birth By sleep but I agree, KH2 was peak. I couldn’t even play the third one as the stupid Disney park rides annoyed me(even though I heard that it could be disabled)
I also stopped playing after I think the first level because it just became Disney park rides. I’ve heard people say just don’t use it. But I don’t know if the game is built around using them. Like playing a Final Fantasy game without limit breaks. You can skip it, but it gives you a break every once in awhile and keeps up the pacing.
Eh I played through the game with the rides disabled and didn’t find any impact on my experience. It did feel like the only way the combat was fun was on critical mode, despite still being floatier than I’d like.
Dlc content slaps tho
I always considered Birth by Sleep to be the last good entry to the series. Admittedly I never played the actual game of 358/2 and only got the cinematic version from the collection.
I was a massive fan of 1 and 2 as a kid and did a full series playthrough prior to the release of 3. I had a blast through BBS, but my god it was a slough in the later games(including 3).
Doubt
I kinda doubt it. KH3 was meant to be the end, yet it continued.
And so Kingdom Hearts fans can retire too
Nomura is retiring? Holy shit! That is the best news I’ve heard in years! Maybe we can start getting some decent fucking games out of Sqenix now…
No idea why you got downvoted for being so right, the guy makes schlock
