Meant part 2.
I’m assuming that most of the VA’s from part one will return.
Keeping the seiyuus the same for KH2 would only be smart. Haley Joan Osment was a perfect Sora IMO, in addition to all of the voices. Although, I’m not sure how Sora is going to sound now, seeing as Haley’s 17 years old. But I guess we’ll see. I can’t wait to see the other “Fusions” with the characters. Auron’s, Mulan’s, and Captain Jack Sparrow’s are going to be interesting.
That’s what I hear (and what I hope), but nothing’s been announced yet.
Square Enix needs to up the heat for this game before it gets released by announcing some more cameo characters. Everyone shat their pants when Jack Sparrow was announced, but now they need to one up that shit with Con Air and Chrono Trigger worlds. They announced this game about half a year too early.
Agreed; a Chrono Trigger-themed world (complete with “silent” Crono as a party member) would kick all levels of ass.
Supposedly, the storyline of each world in KH2 is more meant to further Sora’s story, as opposed to being a sorta re-telling of the movie’s story with Sora just “happening by.”
This happened a couple of times in KH1:
One example of this is Atlantica in the first game; they didn’t really follow the plot in The Little Mermaid (hell, Ariel was a PARTY MEMBER who wasn’t half-bad). The storyline in that world had a segment between Sora and King Triton where Triton knew that Sora was the keyblade master and from another world to boot, and I think there were a couple of other segments that were more about Sora’s quest in general than the happenings in Atlantica.
Another obvious example is, of course, Hollow Bastion.
While on that topic, what worlds have been seen in preview vids or otherwise confirmed? I know of:
- Twilight Town (where the other playable keyblade master is from)
- Christmas Town (the opposite of Holloween Town)
- Mulan’s World
- Hercules’s World (including the “main” world and the Underworld)
- Enchanted Countryside (Beast’s world; wonder if he’ll remember Sora from Hollow Bastion…?)
- Disney Castle
- Agrabah (again; no real change, seemingly, except for a new scene in some ruins with some funky statues, plus Jafar’s lamp that Big Bad Pete got a hold of)
- Castle Oblivion (from CoM; Namine and the new kid talk there)
- Hollow Bastion (where the big “army of Heartless” scene seems to be happening)
- Destiny Islands (shows Kairi and Selphie there)
Am I missing any?
One thing I’m hearing that I DON’T like is supposedly introducing a ranking system to each world; apparently, finishing each world with high kills and a quick time will earn you better rewards.
I’m hoping this is either not what I’m thinking it is (a Megaman Zero-type reward system, which is fine for Megaman Zero but not, IMO, something like KH) and/or it doesn’t impact exploration.
I’m out for now!
-The “Deep Dive” world, as seen in the secret endings (big building with huge TV screen…).
-Pirates O.T.C. world.
I think that’s Twilight Town and “Oh, yeah!” respectively. :tup:
I’m not sure where I remember this from, but I heard that Nomura mentioned he might be using FF characters he didn’t design in this game.
Cecil and Kain, gogogogogo
I’m hopin’ for Terra myself.

(2nd to last question)
I was under the impression that TT was in a constant state of Twilight…the Deep Dive world is always shown to be at night? DD looks to be alot more advanced than TT from the previews I’ve seen. We’ll just have to see I guess. Damn it’s taking WAY too long for this damned game to come out!
Damn, thats really respectful of him. But I still hope he’s able to bring in characters from other games, Id love to see some of the 2D characters in a 3D environment. Im sure he’d do a good job of it too.
New news from http://www.sd.cubicnetwork.net/; new videos of combat, and the guy who played the Cerberus fight sez Auron’s voice is the same one as in FFX.
Yeah, I’m thinking you’re right; my bad!
A Nomura-designed Terra would be godly. But only if her outfit was completely different like Squall and Cloud’s. She’d be way dated rocking the old-school FF bodysuit.
Here’s to hoping.
Agreed, but she still better have the green hair. I know Amano wanted her blonde and whatnot, but I grew to love the look of the little green-haired SNES sprite. :tup:
A little late by now, but:
Seifer/Raijin/Fujin.
Minnie Mouse in your party.
Steamboat Willy confirmed from the Beuna Vista site.
Advent Children Cloud.
Square-Enix hopes for a Winter release in Japan and the US.
Word, Amano was on crack when he made Terra blonde. Hell, he makes half his incarnations of FF characters blonde, with the noted exception of FFX illustrations of Yuna.
But yeah, they should put in Terra. And cross her character like they did with Cloud with someone frickin’ insane, like I don’t know…Gilgamesh. Red would still remain her dominant color that way, but with a bigass scarf over the bodysuit and like, 6 concealed swords. 
Now that would rock.
EDIT: HOLY GOOD GOD. AC Cloud?! This game is mine.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh shit :wow:
