lezard_valeth posted:I am curious as to how Back Cover will play into all of this. God I hope they connect it to the main plot somehow. One of the points I'm most eager to get to explain to friends who are coming new into the franchise is that there is a character called Master of Masters. So far the reaction of every single one of them was that either I was trolling them or Nomura was, followed up by a quick google search to confirm that yes, Nomura was the one trolling. I'm pretty sure Nomura said the MoM wouldn't be appearing in KH3 so it's possible they're saving him for the next arc (then again, the mobile game still isn't done with its story yet so maybe he dies at the end of that).

I think Xigbar and Master of Masters have some sort of connection, maybe reincarnation or something. Dumber stuff has happened...

Well the mobile game does suggest that Marluxia's human form was apparently around back then so who knows, Xigbar and the Master could literally turn out to be the same person pulling a long con (he's already got some Revolver Ocelot vibes to him so you might as well just go all the way).

I halfway expect Braig to have actually been working to free Terra since BBS because he fell in love with Terra after their fight.

To be honest, I don't know if we can say anything about the plot of the mobile and browser games with much confidence. They're the biggest enigma so far, by an order of magnitude. The best theories I've seen are that there's some sleeping world fuckery going on given the presence of Chirithy spirits and the secret ending to the browser game. It's certain that the Book of Prophecies and other things from that time are relics that exist, so the events probably transpired somewhat as depicted, but it's in no way clear to what degree of fidelity. From everything I can tell, the least likely thing is that Union Cross and X represent the story as it actually happened, verbatim.

Braig is a weird entity in the series. He was completely on board with Master Xehanort and his plans, possibly knowing how things would end up, but we don't know why. He's just some punk with space powers (despite no other Organization members having their powers before being turned into Nobodies) that works with this creepy goblin man for no known reason. We never even see or hear about how they met. There's more to this guy than what's on the surface.

I get the sense that Braig is the vessel with more autonomy than the others. He basically has a subtle freakout over the course of 3D's climax while the rest of the Cohort are just passively taking their plan being literally burned to bits.

There's a vague implication that he originally signed on with Xeh to become a Keyblade wielder, and things sort of spiraled from there.

I had a weird Kingdom Hearts related dream last night, where I dreamt that there is only one keyblade master, Xehanort and all of the other keyblade wielders are actually Xehanort too and can only wield them because they're in the process of being Norted through contact with Xehanort, Ansem seeker of darkness or Xemnas. I used the justification that Sora didn't get to use a keyblade until after meeting Xehanort's heartless in my dream. Now I'm worried I spoiled the drat twist of KH 3 for myself.

I mean, it would explain them sticking to their guns about "the Keyblade's chosen" like it's a unique object only one person can wield up until the last hour of KH2 where it became too ridiculous to keep saying.

Serious question: Should I make a new thread titled KHIII and have the first post be about KHIII and the second post about the previous games and how to get back into the series? And if so, what should the thread title be? Also I am going to change my username back to Blackbelt Bobman (finally) but I need a good KH avatar. Help!

I figured he was just some shady guy that saw the slippery slope of poo poo and decided to grab a sled. Really early on it seems like he might be in it for a quick buck, but after Terra starts playing with Darkness and takes out his eye, he pretty much just says gently caress it and goes all in. As far as how he knows how to do that stuff, eh, people can use magic and stuff in that universe without a whole lot of fuss so I don't know if that's a huge deal.

Aqua is apparently not norted, just a Darkling, whatever that is

Someone earlier in this thread said Darklings come up in the mobile game, they're keyblade users who submitted to darkness in exchange for power, which apparently warp their bodies into sort of looking like Heartless? It was in response to seeing the boxart for KH3 and someone was wondering what that Heartless was doing on the cover and someone else said it was a Darkling.

The TGS stream presentation showed a boss fight of Sora vs Aqua, not Riku vs Aqua like a lot of people expected and it looks rad as gently caress.

Apparently, Nomura, while describing the plot of Kingdom Hearts, failed to properly recite it and just declared the whole mess completely impossible to explain, and that one would have to play all the games to get it. He also apparently said that if KH ever got to a point where it was understandable, he'd make it more complex again.
