I'm sure this get's asked a million times, but I didn't see anything specifically about it in the OP. I played KH1 & 2 at release. I was one of the many who was confused as gently caress at release of 2, having no idea what happened because I didn't play Chain of Memories. I want my wife to be able to experience KH, as I feel she would really like the games. I'm thinking of getting that 1.5+2.5 PS4 release. So a few questions - I know a couple of the game are just movies. Are any of the non KH 1/2 games worth dumping a bunch of time into or can I find "movie" versions of those games out there somewhere? Apparently there's a 2.8 something? How does that fit into this all? If I get this: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/kingdom-hearts-hd-15-25-remix-ps4/ - am I still missing out on some content?

Bust Rodd posted:Unless your wife really likes watching incredibly stupid people do stupid things I recommend play 1, watch COM on youtube, play 2, then watch the rest. Yeah, I guess a lot just depends on how long these games are. If stuff like DDD and BBS are 8-10 hour experiences, then cool. However, if they are 40 hour games, no thanks.

Larryb posted:Wait, there was a planned Gargoyles world? For which game? I know there was going to be a Jungle Book world in BBS and a Pinocchio world in Days (assets from both have been found if you feel like looking them up) at any rate. gently caress I loved Gargoyles as a kid. I was thinking recently, it's really odd that Disney has never gone ahead with a live action Gargoyles film. A shame that Jonathan Frakes would be too old for the role now. But you could still get Keith David for Goliath.

So I just picked up the 1.5+2.5 Remix. My wife is going planning on playing through KH1. She has never played a KH game (I played 1 & 2 when I was a teenager). Is standard difficulty fine for a newcomer? Also, what was the best choice for the starting questions? (Sword/Shield/Staff) I can't remember what the benefits were. Does it even master if she's not going for any sort of completionist run?

TheGamerGuy23 posted:The Sword/Shield/Staff determine how each three major stat performs and what abilities are given in what order. Picking the shield gives a boost for defense, giving up the sword weakens attack and so on. I say ditch the staff because magic spells aside form Cure are completely loving worthless aside from two optional bosses anyway. Have her pick the shield and give up the staff. The game is extremely easy, so Standard should be fine. Good idea. Upping her defense with shield will probably up the ease for her.

Is Chain of Memories any fun to actually play or if I'm only in it for story, should I just go watch the 3 hour cutscene compilation?

Burkion posted:Give it a shot, whichever version you have I have the PS4 compilation. My wife is starting KH1. I remember back when I played the first game, I did not play chain of memories and was really loving confused at the start of Kingdom Hearts 2. I told her that, if anything, I would play through Chain of Memories and then she could pick up again on the second game; otherwise, we can just watch the cut scenes for Chain of Memories.

So, luckily through the 1.5/2.5 remix, Days and Re:coded are just cinematics. How is Birth by Sleep to play? Also - which order should I be playing these? Or just in release order?

So I’ve been watching my wife play through KH1, and I’ve come to a realization. Although I loved it as a teenager... I think it might be kind of a bad game. The controls are hot garbage and half of the worlds are straight trash as well. She just got through the 1-2 punch of Monstro and Atlantica and goddamn those two places are garbage. She’s really bad with directions in games and KH1 is really bad about not telegraphing where you should be going and most of the worlds are filled with areas that are not visually diverse enough.

Shoren posted:Atlantica isn't really any worse than the other worlds in KH1, but Monstro is hands down the worst world in the series. Every room looks basically the same and there's no telling where one door will lead. In fact, some doors drop you right back into the starting room with no way back to where you were without trudging through the path you just took. It's a whole lot of bullshit even for people with really good senses of direction. Swimming controls are never good in video games. Swimming + combat is a bad time.

And play in release order! Not disc order. On the disc, they want you to see 358/2 days before KH2 which is baffling.

It's amazing how much better KH2 is to KH1 though. I'll take Atlantica 2: The Musicial to Atlantica 1: Swimming Controls for Combat Suck and the Camera is Terrible.

Kheldarn posted:Well that's too bad, because swimming and underwater combat are back for KH3. Yeah and I bet it won’t play like poo poo like KH1 does. KH1 is just all around kinda a bad game that plays like poo poo in all possible ways. The gap in playability between KH1 and KH2 is like the grand loving canyon.

I’m of the mind that 75% of the way through the game, we’re going to purify Xehanort’s heart and take the fight to the Master of Masters. Xehanort will become Nathore.

Nomura has said that KH3 is the end of the "Dark Seeker Saga." And that more stories can come after. Also, he has said that so long as there are Kingdom Hearts games, Sora will be the protagonist.
