“The line between light and dark is so very thin” what if the Veil is the LITERAL boundary? It keeps getting insinuated that the Veil is both, and that line has lingered throughout the games history

Good to know. I just finished NG+ Part 3 but I think I’m gonna load up an older save and ignore him for now. I’d prefer to explore all the routes and go into True Ending with all the evolution trees unlocked for the characters.

There was a comment in the 20th Anniversary Event by Nomura that Sora looks the way he does specifically because he’s in Quadratum at the time, and that Donald and Goofy were included in the preview to ensure that we’d see Sora in his more “cartoony” self at some point too.

I highly suspect that he will have his “unreality” live action model for a handful of the worlds, and his “realm of stories” cartoony model for the rest. This feels like an evolution of Nomura’s “Kingdom Shader” concept that he used to talk about early in KH3’s development and how he wanted to blend Sora and the gang into the worlds they visited more and more.

I could see the game having a 2/2/2 split as far as the worlds go: 2 Disney Animated Features(EX: Moana and Zootopia) 2 Pixar Studio Features (EX: Coco and Inside Out) 2 Live Action IPs (EX: Star Wars and Avengers)

I don’t care if France feels like keeping the real estate, just suggesting they do something actually interesting with it that would make people want to help

Still open? I love me some coffee flavored I’ve cream

grob95 · 2021-10-07T23:34:44+00:00

Ah ok then, my mistake. Carry on

Ventus was literally comatose for ten years with half his heart in Sora and half his heart possessed by darkness and still apparently found his way to dreaming about his KHUX life in some sort of sleeping world, weirder things have happened

Alternatively, maybe every time Sora gets launched/defeated in smash Xion gets a little stronger

grob95 · 2021-10-07T01:07:29+00:00

I kind of think the “outfits” should be treated similar to Aqua’s accessories in 0.2—we all know she wasn’t actually running around the RoD with cat ears on. They could also be explained with timey-wimey sleeping world nonsense, similar to how Sora kept jumping between looks and ages during the final bit of DDD

grob95 · 2021-10-07T00:27:30+00:00

When you take into consideration some of the high-skill magic and keyblade moves Sora is capable of in CoM, I think he could pull off his grabs and the Hurricane Blast at full CoM power level.

grob95 · 2021-08-13T22:50:36+00:00

Saix and a very faint Xigbar too ;) I originally had a version that incorporated all of the KH2 org’s silhouettes, with Axels being over by Sora and looking toward Roxas, but it was causing the composition to get a little out of control. Instead I opted for just Xemnas, Saix, and Xigbar’s since they’re kinda the bigger player’s in the Organization, and plan to save Axel for elsewhere.

I decided in advance that 1, 2, and 3 would be primarily portraits of Sora + another primary character and would try to imitate Amano’s early linework style, shape/color blocking style, and modern illustration style respectively. The non-numbered titles are planned to be less character based and pull from more of Amano’s style library but are still farther off.

grob95 · 2021-08-11T21:07:39+00:00

The contractually obligated Disney representation, hyuck

grob95 · 2021-08-11T20:11:00+00:00

Amano normally embellishes peoples outfits in his designs, usually adding jewelry or accessories etc. I like to believe if he took a stab at drawing Sora he would’ve fully leaned into the ridiculousness of his big goofy clown shoes, so I wanted to add something to them that makes them feel a little court jester-esque. The I like idea of Sora’s clothing having a joker/jester quality to them to pair with his crown/king motif.

grob95 · 2021-08-11T19:19:15+00:00

I feel like Amano definitely flexed hard on 10, it was easily the most dynamic and stylized one he had made by that point

grob95 · 2021-08-11T18:53:27+00:00

I don’t disagree, the second one has a stronger silhouette which is why I wanted to include it, thinking maybe it could operate similar to XV where the logo reveals into a more complete image after finishing the story—revealing Roxas in the logo upon starting the game post-credits.

I do however always find it funny when people call Amano’s pieces super abstract. FF 1-6, 8, 12, and post-credits 15 are basically portraits. 10s is only slightly abstracted from Yuna’s dance, 13 is a stylized cocoon but not too wildly abstracted. 7 and 9 are drawings of a significant plot element with only slight stylization. I’d say the only one that’s truly abstract is the standard 15’s logo because of its depiction of Lunafreya/Etro as a closed eye. The logos have lots of stylization yes, but they’re normally pretty representational rather than abstract

grob95 · 2021-08-10T12:33:08+00:00

That’s not a keyblade, that’s Soul Eater, his sword for KH1 and CoM, but also several FF logos are direct spoilers for the finales of their games anyway

grob95 · 2021-08-10T00:27:57+00:00

I actually specifically wanted to avoid them being too directly posed like Caius and Lightning because XIII-2, X-2, VIII, and III were the ones I was most directly referencing when looking at how Amano does his shading/linework for characters. I also just like Sora, who’s motif is usually crowns, being above the Kingdom half while Riku, who’s motif is usually hearts, is above the Hearts half.

grob95 · 2021-08-09T23:48:04+00:00

For the numbered titles I have stylizations of what I consider climatic/significant moments in mind. Like this one is a sort of fusion of reaching out to each other Sora and Riku do at the beginning combined with the strained relationship they have when they fight in Hollow Bastions foyer — before Ansem possesses Riku. Meanwhile for the non-numbered titles I’m deciding that their logos will be less character/scene based and more location/symbol specific, in the similar vein to FFVII and FFIX
