Kingdom Hearts is a series that started with a small conversation on an elevator and now has bloomed to one of Square-Enix's biggest franchises, with almost a dozen full games available, not including the remixed versions as well. Who knew a game about swinging keys with Disney and Final Fantasy characters would be so engaging?

Final Mix ended up adding several new abilities, a brand new difficulty, couple of new weapons and several new Heartless. And for whatever reason, some existing heartless got new color schemes.



I'll be going for a Proud mode run. The current plan is to beat the game, beat the optional bosses, find all the dalmatians and get the ultima keyblade. Maybe adding more as I go along. I'm also trying to keep the video to around 30 minutes or less, since the files are gonna be a little bigger than I've ever messed with before. Gonna try to stick to about three-four people to a call total since the screw ups in the beginning certainly didn't help me in the long run! With school, it's gonna be rough finding time to get all the recording and editing I need but I'll try to get two-three updates a week whenever I got some ready to go. You can keep up with updates through my twitter.

Also for the sake of things, let's keep spoiler talk to a minimum, or at the very least try not to mention anything past Hollow Bastion first trip. Most of the Disney Worlds don't really bring much so they're all free game. If you wanna talk about the series where it's at now, check out the Kingdom Hearts General in games. If you wanna see how far your wallet can take you, there's also the Kingdom Hearts Unchained X thread as well.

Honestly I'm hoping to get each world done in each video but later ones do get more confusing, even with editing. Let's see how that ends up in the long run.

I've been upgrading the ship in between episodes so maybe??? I mean I've played worse for the sake of an LP in the past before.

Finishing up Tarzan boy by saving a bunch of gorillas and giving Clayton a less brutal death. Also learning just how good the Keyblade abilities are in KH1.

For that chest in the hanging boat I've always just climbed up to the top of the house and done three or four air attacks after jumping towards it, you can usually land in the boat.

I feel the early worlds are kind of lackluster (and it took me a while to adjust to flowmotion as a mechanic) but I thought it was okay by the end of it. Didn't do the optional bosses so I don't know how they fight. Just remember to cycle between your Spirits to get good abilities and not be stuck with crummy ones like I did early on in my run.

Also I haven't forgotten about the LP, just been real busy with classes as well as personal things. I got the files ready for the next several updates, just need time to put it together.

Got some updates readied up. Still need to encode one more video but I'll finally have some time later in the week to get more in. Enjoy some Riku time.

here's a second TIPZ N TRIX! The monkey statues in the treasure room become activated after you drop the door to Jafar open and let you get blasted up to the remaining chests in that room. Also I have no idea if the category of keyblade the three wishes falls into exists for final mix but with Counterattack you can turn Sora into a spaz if you're whackin the fat heartless on the belly for a ton of iframes.

I checked the treasure room to see if I could and so far nothing. Even with Aladdin. I did get the rest of the chest that were in there so I'm mostly done with Agrabah (just have a few more trinities left). Also no idea about Keyblade catagorties in the first game but if I'm reading up right, I should be getting counter attack pretty soon, which should help a lot in Hollow Bastion.

So now we return to the adventure of Sora and pals. End up doing a lot of menu management as well as synthesis. Plus there's a giant whale too!

Checkin out a video or two to reinforce 14 year old memories looks like you had to stand on top of the heads to get the Aladdin prompt, although with High Jump you can get to the chests anyway.

As for the Keyblades I checked out the wikis and looks like it's got to do with the recoil stat, which is invisible on the equip screen. Recoil values above 60 let you do the counterattack spamming, almost every magic focused keychain's got a recoil of 1 along with most of the stubby Keyblades. Olympia's got a high recoil and you can get it right before Hollow Bastion at least, can give it a shot there.

Huh, then again since you said it's an invisible stat, it's just something I never considered. I did get Olympia before Hollow Bastion so once I'm clear with the sewer portions of it (stuck with wooden sword at the moment), I should find out for sure.

Yeah same when I found it out, you kind of just end up whacking either a guarding enemy or a large body at some point especially in the Colosseum. By eyesight usually if the Keyblade's big and honkin it's got a high recoil.

The stat apparently affects how long your animation is when hitting a guard, with more frames the lower it is, I guess 60+ gives you 0 to recover out of with Counterattack.

So stuff's been keeping me busy but I found some time to get these edited. So to make up for the delay, I got two updates today. Also learned that, like with Tarzan, Halloween Town isn't covered in the manga. So have some extra Cid.
