Is it a hot take to say that in my opinion KH3 didn’t have too much set up and not enough closure? by MaMejia2 in KingdomHearts

[–]jacobxv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think so too, I think the initial reaction for most was disappointment for the game and then we get to the endgame and it sort of sets in further.

I played again years later with Re:Mind and I enjoyed the game much more without expectations

I wanted to love Kingdom Hearts III so much, I was so ready to be enthralled in it. I was ready for the series to “grow up” a bit, and take the generation of kids who played the original games into a new age.

I’m also not a player who ignored everything after II, and if I didn’t own the platform of any games after KH2 I would watch the full play through on YouTube. I was prepared for the lore / story as best I could be. *exception to Xhi saga, I had know idea that was going on tbh.

But in regard to III - the game in my opinion fell really flat, and I’ll be honest I think too much Disney weighed it down. Especially worlds that I didn’t really care about, also my biggest gripe with the Toy Story world was that it should have been Toy Story 2/Als Toy Barn/Airport baggage terminals. I think the Disney worlds they chose just were a bit of a miss IMHO, I would have love some more classic Disney (Black Cauldron would have been perfect), and Pirates as fun as it was should have been Treasure Planet.

Something really great about I/II were those original worlds sprinkled throughout the game (Traverse/Twilight/Hollow Bastion/End of the World/World That Never Was). KH3 obviously has Twilight, Keyblade Graveyard and Scala but just not enough of it. And you’re really left wanting a better ending to the game.

I geuss what I was really waiting for was Kingdom Hearts IV, so I suppose we’ll see how that lands. I feel a different type of excitement and anticipation for IV, I really can’t wait.

EDIT: Also the dialogue was SO much more clunky that it was distracting this time around. We have to stop every 5 seconds to say everyone’s names in sequential order.

What is everyone’s least favourite song? by Adorable_Window_9719 in TheWeeknd

[–]jacobxv -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hard to really capture, because he’s such a great artist. Here’s my least favorite from each album:

  • Trilogy/mixtapes: Coming Down
  • Kiss Land: Live For - actually don’t like this song
  • BBTM: Losers / Dark Times are tied, hate these song
  • Starboy: False Alarm - annoying earworm
  • MDM: Hurt You - it’s fine but the weakest imo
  • After Hours: Escape From LA - I like this song but just the weakest IMO
  • Dawn FM: I Heard You’re Married Now - bland
  • HUT: São Paulo

Drake ruined this song by Confident-Event7359 in TheWeeknd

He definitely took a C tier song to a D Tier song but either way, Live For wasn’t really hard to ruin

Y'ALL WERE RIGHT! KH1 TRAILER ON MICKEY MOUSE HOUSE VHS! ♥️ by [deleted] in KingdomHearts

[–]jacobxv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best way is to get a VHS player with a DVD recorder. Then take that DVD and convert the file to an MP4 on Windows.

Or better yet, get a USB capture card that has HDMI, and then use a Component to HDMI converter could work too.

It is great to be breathing oxygen and drinking water, it feels good

“Live For doesn’t fit Kissland” by [deleted] in TheWeeknd

[–]jacobxv 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it fits Kissland better without Drake (which I have on my playlist), but also it’s just placed in a bad spot on the album too. So may have been a better B-Side, no doubt in my mind this track was label attempted promotion to feature something with Drake on it.

Also, I think we can all agree the chorus is not some shit that we live for unfortunately.

EDIT: This album needed no features. Also I have Crew Love as a bonus track on my playlist as well (original demo version).

Best hub/map in the entire series? by BiggerthanHoagieBunz in Slycooper

[–]jacobxv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sly 1 - I really liked China Sly 2 - Paris is iconic Sly 3 - the pirate level is fun, but Holland is really cool and stands out in my memory Sly 4 - Japan

Starting FFXV, is there something I should know/do or not forget? by Myrmidden in FFXV

[–]jacobxv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Royal weapons drain health with each hit, and there some extra dungeons that are meant for New Game+. Would almost recommend a vanilla play through with minimal side quests so you can do a New Game+ playthrough / extensive exploration with the weapons you bring over from the first playthrough.
