    The great thing about this game is that it's individual plot is one of the darkest of all the games. The villains are straight up lying and gaslighting the hell out of Sora and the best part is that Marluxia's plan actually worked almost perfectly. Sora was genuinely willing to let Naminé kill him just for her sake. To be willing to let Marluxia puppet him around as a weapon for Naminé's sake.

    • @KitKatNisa

      Namine wasn't going to KILL him, she was going to erase his memories. Sora fully believed that he could still be Marluxia even if Namine did it.

    If you really wanna break your brain on this plot, its implied that the meteor shower memory was actually an event w/Sora and Riku, not Kairi.
    The only meteor shower we know Sora and Riku witniss is the one that brought Kairi to the islands. Kairi's good luck charm: she gave it to Sora during KH1, not during a meteor shower. So 2 big contradictions. Namine cannot create new memories, only remix the memories you already have. So the meteor shower is a shared memory betwen Sora and Riku that Kairi couldn't have been present for.
    If you look into the origin of Oblivion/Passing Memory, it represents Sora's memories of Riku, and the keychain is Sora's crown necklace. Originally, Riku was supposed to give Sora Oblivion's keychain in KH1, like how Kairi gives him Oathkeeper's keychain (her wayfinder charm).
    Altogether, the implication is that Riku swore an oath to protect Sora from a meteor shower and gsve him his crown necklace as part of that promise. When you play BBS, you'll know how far back Riku's devotion to protecting Sora goes

      Yeah, imagine the time gap between 2002 to 2005, PS2 owners who played KH1, then goes straight up to KH2 and immedieately felt that they've missed a ton of things right at the beginning, things like:
      Who's that Roxas? Who's Naminé? Why and when did Sora and the crew got inside on those capsules? Why there only 8 members at the Organization XIII?
      And they found out that they have to buy the GameBoy Advance and play the, at the time, exclusive Chain of Memories to know exactly what really happened between KH1 and KH2.
      Like how anyone would ever know that at the time?
      And it baffles me that Square-Enix did the same thing with the Union X series.

    I'm guessing the reason Nomura is having Riku smell everything is because smell happens to be the number one trigger for memory, and Castle Oblivion is all about memory! Or maybe him saying repeatedly that he is able to "smell the darkness" means that when people use darkness to impersonate other people he can smell it? I dunno, it's always been a question of mine too...these were just something I thought once or twice over the years

    • @anafolie471
      @anafolie471 Год назад +12

      i don't remember from where I got the information, but apparently the smell thing comes from a weird translation decision. apparently in the Japanese version what Riku says is something among the lines of "feel", like "You and Kairi feel the same", which is kinda complicated to translate and apparently makes more sense in Japanese, but deciding to translate it as smell is even more of a weird decision lmao. Could have avoided the weirdness if they just switched it for something like aura lmao

      I... Can't agree with you there chief. I found the cards to be somewhat obnoxious and clunky, destroying the flow of the combat. Making it feel jittery and disjointed. I feel Riku's campaign was better, as the card system felt more complete, but Sora's campaign just felt frustrating and sluggish.
      I can accept that I was just bad at the game, but I still can't recommend it to anyone because of the frustrations I had playing it.

    I think it's unfortunate that they remade CoM for playstation instead of just porting it over. The GBA version is significantly more palatable. The deckbuilding part was actually a fun change of pace (and also made the game SUPER easy if you know anything about deckbuilding). Also, the combat is far simpler when you don't have to worry about 3D environments or camera angles during combat. That inclusion completely ruined the gameplay in my opinion, so I can't blame people for skipping this version.

    This is known as the darkest game in the saga, so I'm writing this in here:
    -There are two crossover fanfics between this saga and "OUAT" (I'm surprised there aren't like hundreds of them). Sora, Kairie and Riku's story was that Kairie was the princess of a kingdom in the Enchanted Forest that swore to protect the world of light, Sora was her Keyblade knight, and Riku was simply a knight. The Dark Curse separated the three of them and made Sora and Riku enemies, Kairie's fate kinda unknown.
    Why am I talking about this ? Ever since I read them and played "Nirvana Initiative", I have been thinking. What if the worlds'saga is meant to suffer a complete reset "Dark Curse" style ? For a new world to be born ? I guess, like Kirari and Yumeko from "Kagegurui", I want to see the universe come to its flashy end, to see its rebirth and what comes out of it.
    Actually...I don't think this is something recent. Ever since the first game, when Ansem talked about death, that I could only wonder how this universe's hidden side is ? What lies beyond lign and darkness ? What happens when the light separating them evaporates ? What is left ? Will the dead rise ? Will people be reborn ? The possibilities are endless. And all it takes is someone to perform the heart surgery without being manipulated by neither the power nor the characters.

    I too just watched it. It’s the only game where the gameplay just turned me off that much.
    The story, though, was great!

      I’ve played it through 2 times. It was a little hard to get through the final bosses though.

    I wish it didn’t have this type of gameplay 🥲. Other than that this storyline was great :)
