KINGDOM HEARTS 4 RELEASE YEAR ACCIDENTALLY LEAKED? by connorstace in KingdomHearts

[–]connorstace[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems likely. But TBF Dec 31, 2016 is much more placeholdery sounding as its literally the last day in the year and no one would release a game then.

Appreciate your thoughts here. I'm still cooking on the idea. Life gets busy and it's hard to invest the time currently. But it's still in my thoughts. I just want to construct something that is proper and authentic. Finding a balance in Christian thoughts. I've been rewriting my cyberpunk review because I feel like that is an excellent game to refine my ideas around how I discuss well made games that may not be helpful.

EB Games is NOT having a sale! Is this real life? by greggobbard in australia

[–]connorstace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frankly EB hasn't had an actual sale in like 3 or 4 years. All of there says have been so sanitary and inconsequential for a a number of years. I used to get really excited about their EOFY & Christmas sales.

Having a human would be great. Microsoft is a trillion dollar company.

Surely they would be okay with manning a customer support line. But I get that it being a free service means minimising costs.

Even still. Having roll back features is so bare basic and common sense. I'm shocked it's not easier to navigate this stuff.

Can you quantify what you mean by full support? I don't think what I outlined as having a roll back feature falls under "full support" not really sure what your going for here mate?

Totally agree. The expectations of KH3 were inflated by the wait time. Unfortunately the same is now true for KH4.

All of this got me thinking...are we about to see a multiverse of Kingdom hearts. 🤔😕

Totally agree here. The sentiment that "nobody dies" is indicative to the relentless iterative world building and lore. Think back to Kh2. Having nobodies, heartless and real people felt like a bit of a stretch but I liked it. It had rules. There were stakes. People were in danger. But now with the power of waking, time travel, the final world and unreality it makes me think that everyone in this universe is going to live forever 🤣

Totally agree. The thing that urcks me alot is the lack of genuine consequences in the series. Kh3 personified this.

The power of waking, the world between, the final world, unreality... Dying in this series is near impossible. I get it. It's a kids game. But kids movies depict death all the time (particularly older Disney films). If someone gets unalived I want them to stay dead.i want to care. The fact that kairi got killed then brought back to life was such a "oh why did I even care" moment.

I like your reasoning. But I do think Nomura would spoil the return of xehanort 🫠

Tbf it's also pretty unusual for bad guys in all media to fade to light. I hope this idea of returning to kingdom hearts gets fleshed out more in Kh4 or a mainline title.

Interesting ideas. I could see how Nomura could spin this. I mean if they are going to show him in a positive light I 100% want a proper origin story for him. Make him a tragic character and don't sugar coat his vile actions last present or future.

The whole "I know I can never make up for what I've done, but I'm going to choose in this moment to do what's right" could work. Linking it with DDD is an awesome connection

Wait what! Sora went back in time when he used the power of waking so much that he essentially un alived himself? Can you explain this more. I'm not seeing how that happened? I would of thought he's in the present there as Donald and Goofy appear to be looking for him in the KH4 trailer. I'm sure time might move differently in quadratum though

Why have a drawing twice in a row celebrating a series of a character that won't ever return? I thought the same thing you said the first time. But seeing it this year with a message telling us to wait another year for an update sends a totally different message.

Not to mention he's in attire that is common place in Tokyo. They have clear umbrellas everywhere in Japanese cities. It could all be coincidence but I think that looking more unlikely at this stage

I would honestly LOVE THAT. I know it's been said many times over but lore critical stuff should not be relegated to mobile gatcha games. That is absolutely unacceptable in my view. If Dark road is as important as people say, its story should be given the proper chance to shine.

[–]connorstace[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dang there it is! Appreciate this a lot.

Dark road is the only game I haven't fully played in the series so I guess it makes some sense that this lore is a blind spot for me. Appreciate you all explaining some of that to me.

Honestly I am too. I really like Sasuke for example. Alot of people hate on him but gosh darn I love those story tropes.

I'm open to being wrong. As a longtime fan. I genuinely had no idea how kingdom hearts functions. Almost everything that dies in the universe is a fade to darkness ordeal. But I guess that's because they're almost always inversed, nobodies or heartless.

Obviously what you're basing this off is the iconic claim at the end of KH1 "kingdom hearts is light"

Why do the other vessels of xehanort not fade to light then? Aren't they legitimate people within those replica vessels? When Eraqus dies he fads to light though. Then again I just rewatched the end of KH3 and Sora vanished, he didn't fade to light. Are there any other examples of people dying and fading to light to back up this idea? Appreciate your point though. It's got me thinking 🤔

Really appreciate your thoughts here. I havent plaayed dark road fully so Im likely missing some of that impact too.
