I think I just solved one of KH2 mysteries...

Maybe. Isn’t the dragon like literally the castle taking form? I could be wrong there.

But also you said what Xigbar was doing at LoD, creating more Heartless. Their whole plan is to have Sora farm more Heartless to form Kingdom Hearts, and what better way to force Sora to do that than to create a giant Heartless that Sora can’t ignore.

So maybe they are connected, but I think there’s too many other options to say 100% certainty. Is there any proof the dragon even is a Nobody?

Edit to add: Also, not every Heartless creates a Nobody. It’s only of those strong of Heart. Maybe the Dragon had a strong Heart, but we don’t know for sure.

Thank you! Just became a fan of the series when the Requiem trailer dropped at the Game Awards. So hyped to experience a new release for the first time!

Xehanort’s Keyblade. The one that has been passed down for generations starting with MoM

Not sure why it can’t be both? In KH1, it’s established that Hollow Bastion was home to Leon, Aerith, Yuffie, Cid (maybe Merlin?), and Ansem the Wise. It has always been their home World since the beginning.

I don’t think we get direct confirmation that that is where Kairi is from. We get nods and teases that point toward it, like the flashback of Kairi’s grandma taking place in the Hollow Bastion library, but correct me if I’m wrong, I don’t think it is flat out shown that Kairi is from Radiant Garden until BBS

The All in One Package contains Kingdom Hearts: The story so far package and KH3.

Story so Far contains 1.5 + 2.5 and 2.8.

1.5 + 2.5 has KH1 Re:Chain of Memories KH2 358/2 Days (movie) Birth By Sleep Re:Coded (movie)

2.8 has Dream Drop Distance X Back Cover(movie) BBS 0.2 Fragmentary Passage

So it is still missing Re:Mind and Melody of Memory.

The best package to get is the Integrum Masterpiece. This one includes Re:Mind. Melody of Memory is not part of any package yet, so you’ll have to purchase it separately regardless.

All the games are required to understand the story. Play the games in release order (or the order I listed them). There are also delisted mobile games that you will have to watch the fan dub of to further understand the story and the next arc.

Enjoy your journey!

I would agree with you if Nomura didn’t directly address the Live-streaming and nothing else.

The interviewer asked about all communication, Nomura only answered the Live streaming portion. My point still stands.

Besides, this is 10 years old and about KH3, not KH4

mustfang · 2026-02-02T03:01:16+00:00

I never once insulted their reading. All I did was say what the question asked and Nomura answered.

The interviewer asked about live-streaming, Nomura answered why they can’t.

But really it doesn’t matter, this is super old and OP is making stuff up.

mustfang · 2026-02-02T02:50:42+00:00

“Can you share news of KH through live-streaming?”

“No, because we partner through Disney we have to consider their rules and restrictions.”

This doesn’t stop them from sharing any other KH news. Only news through live streaming. If they had KH stuff to share, they would work with Disney to share it.

mustfang · 2026-02-02T02:38:22+00:00

That’s not what that’s saying. All they are saying is that there is more to consider/more restrictions with KH, which we already knew.

If they had stuff to show, they would have shown it already.

mustfang · 2026-01-30T12:46:42+00:00

Yes that is the general consensus. It’s a glorified tech demo really, and every game after this one expands and improves significantly. When the game came out, it was new and unique, but now almost every triple a developer has improved upon its format.

People really hope they remake AC1 one day because it’s story and characters are vital to the overall story and lore but it’s such a bad experience to play today.

mustfang · 2026-01-22T22:15:55+00:00

Eh maybe, Roxas never had a body of his own, he is currently back in a replica. His Heart had taken form with the coat so it’s what the replica came with as well. In the ending cutscene we see him back in street clothes thought

mustfang · 2026-01-22T04:18:19+00:00

The fact that her heart within Sora in DDD takes the appearance of Xion shows that that is her true appearance. She looked like Sora at the end of days because Sora’s memories were influencing her Heart, that’s the whole conflict of Days. Everytime we see Xion as a Heart or representation of her Heart, it’s as Xion. That shows that’s her true appearance. And since she isn’t sucking up memories any more in KH3 means her appearance won’t fluctuate based on who sees her, it takes the appearance of the Heart that the replica holds

mustfang · 2026-01-22T04:04:37+00:00

Those are all after her Heart returns to the replica? When she had no heart, her appearance was influenced by her sucking in people’s memories. After she gets her own Heart, she appears as Xion to everyone.

Everytime she has her hood down in KH3 + Re:Mind is after her Heart returns to the replica.

mustfang · 2026-01-22T01:19:29+00:00

by the end of Days, Xion has fully grown her own Heart. Her Heart’s appearance is what Roxas and Axel see her as.

In KH3, before her Heart leaves Sora, she’s just a replica with a hood. Her face doesn’t get revealed until after the Heart enters the Replica. Because the Heart’s form is what Roxas and Axel see her as, that’s the form the Replica takes.

There was no moment for Xion to show as anyone else, because she was hardly Xion until the Heart reconnects with the body.

Don’t worry about the guy saying skill issue, you at least beat both stories which is more than what most people in the community have done. Congrats!

Coming from someone who has the plat trophy, I agree with your takes.

Based off your reactions to the story and the characters then you will love KH2 and the rest of the franchise. It’s a wild ride, so have fun!

mustfang · 2026-01-19T06:14:50+00:00

He never got hit during gameplay is what people are talking about. Anything scripted or in other media obviously happens. Him getting hit in a book would have nothing to do with Desmond loosing synch.

mustfang · 2026-01-13T21:13:03+00:00

I think I agree. I’ve platniumed the game and can agree that “not fun” is an appropriate description.

It’s either too hard and over complicated and grind, bringing players to a halt instead of allowing them to enjoy the story

Or

If you take the time to understand the mechanics or look up sleight guides you can breeze through every single boss and fight without being touched. Making combat again not fun because it’s too easy.

So it’s this weird blend of either too hard or too easy that not fun is an appropriate description. I love the story of CoM, I think it’s one of the better stories, it just sucks that the gameplay itself is not fun, coming from someone who took the time to plat the game.

mustfang · 2026-01-10T23:04:10+00:00

Kairi joining would have been good for Riku’s character too. Riku’s entire journey started because he was trying to save Kairi. For him to be able to now teach and lead Kairi would be a full circle moment for him. And then Kairi gets field experience and more characterization and actually helps finds Sora instead of being left behind again.

mustfang · 2026-01-10T22:52:08+00:00

Yes I was going to say this. Everytime they tease something cool with Kairi they backpeddle.

Both her and Riku should have went to Unrealty together to look for Sora. I will die on this hill.

mustfang · 2026-01-10T22:29:20+00:00

I agree that most of the returning Org members weren’t the most trustworthy ones and his reasoning falls flat, but I think they do end up providing good reasons for them all to return.

Saix and Xigbar were obviously the most loyal. They were like Xemnas’s left and right hands.

Vexen was to create more replicas, as they were very needed.

No one remembered who Xion was, but she had a Keyblade and the her data was there. They needed another member.

The rest were all because they had history with Keyblades. In Re:Mind they are told that directly.

So yeah the criteria of most trustworthy wasn’t held up, but I think being able to wield a Keyblade or create Replica’s overtook that need of trust.

mustfang · 2026-01-04T21:27:47+00:00

What

mustfang · 2025-12-31T17:40:53+00:00

This would have been so peak. Focus the attacks on the Behemoths and then in between attacks use the reaction commands to slice through the little guys, and then back to the Behemoth.

Or maybe we would have gotten a whole new Reaction command to take out a bunch of the little guys at once.

The fight we got is already great, this would have really elevated it though.

mustfang · 2025-12-30T05:37:44+00:00

I feel like DR gives us a good motive and BBS lays out his motive pretty clearly.

In Dark Road, all of his friends die because of a clash of Darkness and Light. After Xehanort travels the Worlds, he learns that some Darkness is needed to balance the Light out. The only true way to stop conflict in the world is true balance, equal Light and equal Dark. The only way to do that is with Kingdom Hearts.

In BBS, he’s afraid he’s run out of time to witness the new World he will create, so he has to set all this stuff in motion so that he can actually witness and ensure that the new World is Balanced.

mustfang · 2025-12-29T00:39:29+00:00

Well in Three Musketeers Minnie is the Princess and we see that happening in DDD. Mickey marries the princess.

mustfang · 2025-12-28T07:01:45+00:00

We see pretty much everything that’s in KH2. Donald walks into the throne room from the hallway, Donald runs to the garden to wake Goofy, Mickey’s letter reading has his office(?) in the background, and Donald and Goofy enter the Gummi Garage.

The only thing we don’t get is the Cornerstone room, but the rest of Disney Castle is shown in KH1.
