Wait until you get to the hundreds
I wouldn’t say the combat is really bad, but it doesn’t seem very responsive. I also choose to start on Proud mode, and I found that I would die in just a few hits. Some of the weaker enemies have a very large amount of HP, amking it difficult to multi-task, especially when it’s just you fighting.
I thought there would be a lot of added replayablility, seeing as you can play as the Organization, but it feels like too much of a chore to go back, complete the same mission just so I can do it again and unlock stuff for Roxas. I will like I’m forced to do it, but not in a good way. The other members lack depth, from what I can see.
I was really expecting a lot of development from the other organization members. While there have been some great conversations between Xion and Axel, there too few and far between. Instead, they introduce a character never mentioned in any previous Kingdom Hearts and develop her, only to kill her off (although I’ve read that there is relevence to that, so we’ll see).
Like I said, I’m not giving up on this game, but I refuse to give it a passing grade because of the ‘Kingdom Hearts’ monacher.
Hey, when someone as hot as Mandy Moore isn’t voicing Aerith anymore…wait, that wasn’t that they meant? 
But seriously, Mandy did a way better job, although Mena wasn’t bad in AC. I hear the person doing Aerith’s voice in Crisis Core (yes, they changed again) is actually pretty good too, never played it though so I wouldn’t know.
She was alright in AC. But fuck that bitch for thinking she can slack off and do a piss poor job just because it was for a video game. Grr.
And Mandy Moore is hotsex, to be sure.
Almost in the 300’s now and more detail are coming out. Plus I think they are hinting at Axel and Saix being gay lovers in the past? It would explain the stupid pedo laugh they gave Axel every time he sees Roxas, who is always sexually moaning for whatever reason… 
Agreed. “Nobody says no to the Phantom!” :lol:
Everyone here (for the most part) has pretty much said what I’ve read on review sites: Boring and repetitive. (I still haven’t had time to play it yet.)
I did see the commercial for it this morning though, kind of stunned me that they even bothered with making one.
I personally liked Mandy Moore better; she had a lot of personality that Aeris exhibited on Final Fantasy 7 and Crisis Core. Suveri’s Aeris sounded to etherial, and she had the emotional display of a sock full of batteries.
And you called me a troll for saying its unoriginal. Told you guys its boring. I still managed to finish it just so I can know the story but it wasn’t worth it.
That’s exactly what I needed to hear.
Dude, I didn’t know you were from Canada; we’re practially neighbours.
SRK canada represent lol
edit: Except the cold weather. I don’t represent that.
Nomura has a zipper fetish I swear. Go back and look at the costumes.
We already knew he had a zipper fetish…
He should design clothes on the side. I’d rock some DOG STREET brand gear. KH needs more Bouncer yo.
About time someone said this…
I was only half joking about the Saix and Axel gay lovers things, but uh…
OH SNAP!
Spoiler
Saix called Axel by his real name, Lea! Shit just got real!
Must be getting pretty close to the end. I can say I’ve enjoyed it so far, despite a few frustrations. (Fuck you Demyx, there aren’t anymore goddamn Heartless to be found in Mission 62 I don’t want your gift anyways!)
I’d rock some Dog Street accessories. Some of that stuff was sweet.
So I found great deal on eBay for KH1 & 2 black label; they’re both in great condition. Brings back a lot of memories playing KH1 again. Can’t wait until I can fight Sephiroth again.
Ven, Aqua, and Terra’s master revealed:
Click the link below. His name is Master Eraqus.
Other new info is the new starting world in this game will be called The Land Of Departure.
Oh shit! That’s the master? He looks badass. So I guess there’s Disney and FF chars who can be Keyblade masters.
on an other note this is my 3000th post yayyyyyyy!
Just finished 358/2 today. I enjoyed it. Goddamn Utada always making me get teary eyed during cutscenes!
This article about Axel may help people feel a little better about the constant ice cream scenes. Probably some spoilers depending on how far you are, so read with caution if you haven’t finished.
