Ok I'm dumb as hell, where do I go with Sora after Neku and cloak guy run off? I remember hitting some electric thing on the wall and that did something but uuuh I wasn't really paying attention.

Also I agree with the complaint that the camera is zoomed in way too close. KH's combat is chaotic enough when you can actually see poo poo.

It opened a door nearby. look for the glowing pink line on the minimap. If you can't see it, try zooming out. (The minus icon on the minimap)

Actually the camera is just as close as it ever was. It's just that at a lower resolution, the HUD elements remaining the same size make the screen feel a bit cramped.

For the cramped screen just make liberal use of lock-on to keep the camera at a distance in battle, helps lots.

This game is charming as hell and I'm loving the mechanics, can't wait to see how the story goes.

The camera is close but the areas are much larger and there's a greater emphasis on movement which hurts it a lot more than 385/2 Days or Re:Coded. I appreciate the large areas but keeping the camera that close in them is a pain in the rear end.

gently caress I just finished Hunchback world and something in the journal reminded me of a spoiler I read. "His condition remains unstable" with the now human Org members

And now I remember why I was really mad at the plot even before I started this game. Of course, maybe it will play out a lot less retarded than I think.

EDIT: I liked that they used the CAT mural in Traverse Town, I with they had done something with it, though. Unless you go back later and there's more TWEWY stuff! :haw:

I just finished Traverse Town with Riku and I'm currently at Sora's Traverse Town boss. I'm really enjoying it so far but I'm kind of dissapointed in how little the World Ends With You characters were used.

Funny, I was getting irritated with how much they were used :v:

I have to say that I'm guessing quite a few people who play this who never played The World Ends With You will either burst out laughing or have a very confused look when Joshua sprouts angel wings out of nowhere and flies away.

Yeah, I didn't know what the gently caress but I put it down to Square being Square and forgot about it.

Does the North American version of KH3D push a system update? If so, what version does it push? I'm interested in the game, but less interested in losing the ability to read PDFs on my 3DS and so on.

I picked it up yesterday and just in case anyone else was wondering, it doesn't push anything so your firmware is safe.

It's also amazing and if you own a 3DS and enjoy RPGs at all you should probably just grab it.

It's your choice. The secret ending implies that something will happen in KHIII that I know some fans have been waiting for.

The requirements are piss easy compared to the last games' secret ending requirements this time around, so you may as well make the extra effort. Youtubing it is fine too.

Honestly, my favorite part of watching the playthroughs on YouTube has been seeing the TWEWY kids in fully rendered models and they look (and sound) fantastic. I kinda just want a sequel with just them in 3D, none of this KH kerfuffle of a plot that makes no sense.

I've never understood this. They've released several games since KHII, including two (this and BBS) which Nomura has said are as important as numbered titles. Who cares if it has a III at the end? Also, he has said that III is gonna end this plot cycle.

This almost feels like a given. It and Princess and the Frog (Which I'm betting on appearing in some way as well) are the most "traditional" Disney films of the past decade, and I read it was their most successful animated film since The Lion King. They'd be nuts not to include it.

Every single Disney world is new, though we go to new locations in both Traverse Town and The World That Never Was. Makes me want a game where you can go into Hollow Bastion with Flowmotion. :allears:

While Tron appeared in KHII, the world itself is new, since Tron in KHII is a copy of the original who appears in this as Rinzler. Not to mention that The Grid is canonically different from the original Space Paranoids, sharing only Tron and Kevin Flynn, as well as a successor to CLU.

Prankster's Paradise is new. The Monstro part is not. However, Monstro itself has gotten all-new areas that you can explore. Additionally, Monstro is not nearly as overused as other Disney Worlds are (*cough* Olympus Coliseum *cough*).

Basically, if something's not new, it will at least not intentionally feel stale.

Support and Spirit Abilities are permanent. Stat Abilities are not. Second Chance and Once More belong to the Support Ability category so no worries there.
