>Yozora vs Terra Terra mogs easily. Faster fight (despite being invulenrable during attacks), better defined openings better desperation move, more dangerous mixups and significantly more complex a.i patterns.The command sealing is more interesting than Yozora's keyblade steal (just dodging around for an overly long time until he gives it back to you). I do enjoy that he can steal Kupo coins and revive himself tho(funny way to shit on casuals that bank on that to win). Terra's only issues are that he is a bit too easily loopable especially at DM phase (a problem some of KH2's superbosses have). He also is probably too close to Sora at the start of the fight(opening with potential immediate punch combo that close is a bit crazy) and avoiding Blizzard Bike is kinda bullshit without limits. Its a rare attack tho so not that big of a deal.

Thanks for the detailed breakdown. Saw Bizkit defending Yozora on the grounds that Terra was 'more' predictable and thus 'less dangerous', because out of all of his moveset, he can only use a set number of moves per phase (the DM doesn't count for this for obvious reasons) each time you fight him (but IIRC you won't know the exact moves he will choose until you get to see all of them for each phase). I think what he fails to understand (despite being a vet for far longer) is that Terra is more dangerous if you don't actively know how to effectively loop him (allow him to have his way, and you're very likely to be in for a world of hurt). He acts as if Yozora doesn't job to the same antics. Not sure if the same applies to Yozora (being dangerous if you don't loop him). That's where your first-hand knowledge comes in (since I lack that, as I keep losing interest in playing KH3 the more I hear about how Osaka butchered/watered down pretty much everything that made KH2 great).

@@MrWright >Bizzy Is he still peddling this bullshit? One cursory glance at the a.i. pattern charts for both fights would quickly render that statement false. Besides DM looping, Terra is only 'predictable' with the Explosion loop setup. Without the loop he is far more chaotic than any boss in 3 let alone Yozora. Same shit with fights like Data Roxas (most opt to loop him with Limit Form Ars combo after stealing his keyblades cuz his last phase moveset is ridiculous, namely the keyblade buzzsaw attacks) >Yozora looping You cannot loop him at all to my knowledge (unless Denny or somebody found some way.) You can 'reset' his RV before it hits the threshold to maximize damage per opening but thats it.

@@UncPhilly88 >still peddling this bullshit Pretty much. >pattern charts Oh yeah, didn't someone reveal that he goes through a list of attacks in rotation? Kind of like a FF enemy. And once you get used to it, he can't really catch you off-guard, from the looks of it. In contrast to Terra, where at least the moves he chooses to use per phase are chosen at random (making the fight more dynamic). >Data Roxas How could I forget about him. >can't loop Yozora There's a certain video which I think it counts as looping. But since RUclips despises links (comments with them get deleted), here's what we'll do. I'll create a public playlist (called Yozora Loop) temporarily on my channel, and I'll put the video there, so you can see what I mean.

@@MrWright >didn't someone reveal that he goes through a list of attacks in rotation? Yeah. It was a reddit post called the Yozora flowchart IIRC >Linked vid Really nice strat (wish I had seen this before making my vid) but I wouldn't call this a loop. It looks like he is still going through his movelist like normal and not repeating the same action.

Scout: Bonk!

I can't speak for everyone, but I got so used to status affects not working on bosses in JRPG's that I rarely even bother to try.

@@devildogwhite Too true, JRPGs, Wow or MMOS etc all find it easier to make bosses easier to manage mathematically by not allowing stuns, debuffs and buffs. Laziness. But now some RPGs lovingly want you to have a few ways to skin a cat. FF7 is one of these. They encourage scans, investigation, and us exploiting weaknesses.

@@rwhite9994 It's only really FF that has traditionally disabled all status effects and debuffs on all bosses, most other JRPGs are balanced around it

I did not buy the DLC, it was gifted to me by a good friend. I would have most likely never gotten it if not for that lol. >KH2 Datas vs KH3 Datas KH3's are very much inferior for a myriad of reasons. No boss variety ( every boss teleports and every fight consists of Teleport->Melee->Teleport->Melee->Teleport->Projectile, borringg), too restrictive in how you can approach them (owed to overabundance of superarmor attacks and KH3's system mechanics being dogshit in general.), DMs last way too long and kill the pacing of fights and overly straightfoward (i.e. dumbed down) bosses AI patterns with little to no variation ( limit cut bosses in 3 literally are hard coded to run down a fuckin unbreakable list of attacks in rotation instead of randomly picking from a pool of attacks each phase like KH1 and 2 did keeping the action reactive/interesting) and their revenge counters are god awful. They are essentially watered down version of the KH2 datas. KH3 dlc and all is still a very mediocre action game.

>no plans to support a watered down version of something that was supposed to expand upon its predecessor A wise choice. >problems That's a lot of stuff compared to what I was expecting. You would think that, given that the issues are rather numerous, people wouldn't even think about comparing 2's Datas with these. But I guess since they dumbed it down for casuals (like people thinking 3's or even 0.2's Magic can hold a candle to 2's as a whole), they think they're better bosses. Not like casual players have a keen eye for nuances and smart design. Take it that not-Noctis is nowhere close to Terra's level.

Not sure about Air Step, but hey, I haven't played the game yet. Also, based on your wording, are you also a fan of the Action genre?

I see where you're coming from. I also agree that KH should be about commitment (instead of it being a cancel heavy game like DMC, if you wanted cancels in KH2, you had to spend meter for it **which I hear KH3 threw out of the window**). >fan of anything with good gameplay Nice to hear. Also surprised to see another person using that one symbol (>) to specify which point they're replying to.

Yeah. I did manage to best her using mainly Valor (Not in the attempt that this clip was made). Requires alot of parrying and stalling in the air via Combo Master to not die. Also hitting her RV with Valor is generally very bad. This was at Lvl 1 in case your wondering.

Amazing, thought you needed i-frames to win this fight, but I'm happy to be proven wrong. This is a testament for how open ended and well designed this game is. Congratulations man.

Haha thanks man

Yep, this is about the only non Tokyo Team game that I like. To answer your question, HP ups are allowed as I don't believe this type of run would be possible without them. I will still be able to use some useful Sleights too even with the starting deck (party/team attacks, Ragnarok and Ars Arcanum IIRC).

So I take it that you don't like KH3? I wouldn't blame you, I myself am hesitant to even touch it or any future KH game, for that matter, as it would be near impossible for Osaka to surpass Tokyo. As for Ars and Ragnarok, doesn't it concern you that they might be easily broken, or is there some workaround for it (that doesn't break the rules you're playing by) that I'm missing?

@@MrWright >KH3 It's got some good things in it (Air Step, Air Guarding) but the whole game is just a shameless imitation of KH2 that got bogged down futher by its core mechanic being heavily RNG based (which is horrid in Action) among other things. >Ars and Rag IIRC, I can safely squeeze those Sleights in when a boss is reloading their cards.

Thanks brew.

IIRC, luck. Though at the time I did find a somewhat reasonable way to deal with blue laser without expending any meter or RC use.

Main game? Yes. Post game? Not quite yet.

So far, what do you think of it in comparison to the good games in the series?

You just have to try and angle Sora so that your combo pushes you and Vexen as far away as possible from the data circle. You can also move back and wait abit to lead the circle away from Vexen if its to close to him. He stays stunned for a very generous amount of time thankfully so this works well. Also, protip is to always try to Slide Dash into Vex to start your combo. The reason is that usually when you do a Slide Dash Sora's next attack should be a Slapshot(if you mash it out fast), if you equip it of course. Ground combos with Slapshot end faster than ones that don't, this is important if you want to make this slightly easier for yourself. Also Slide Dashing into him is faster than running up and comboing him (so it takes longer for the data circle to catch up to you). This is basically everything I did in the vid. Sorry for the lenghty post, just wanted to be as through as possible. Good Luck.
