Well, now that the KBash Kingdom Hearts marathon II.9 is complete, I will present my findings in video form. Kingdom Hearts was awesome. I don't think there'll be another series quite like it.
Dream Drop surprised me, 0.2 served its purpose, and 3 got me. Still hoping for Drive Forms in KH4, but I'll take what we got in KH3. I've got a little more to cover, but you'll see it soon enough.
**about the 0.2 not delving into Xehanort - I know Union X exists, I just wanted it to be more, uhh, grandiose maybe? a little more comprehensive and elegant at showing how Xehanort got to be the big bad? and maybe not locked on mobile...

“Dream Eaters are like the third enemy type now”
Unversed: “Third type? Excuse me?”
LOL I forgot about the Unversed too
Unversed are just Dollar Store Heartless.
@@lindblumpickles3407 It makes me sad that there were only a small handful of Unversed in Kh3.
At first they're just whatever.
They needed a new enemy archetype because they explained that the heartless didn't exist (pure bloods are the exception) until "Ansem's research of the heart and created them.
But when you go against Vanitas for the last time and find out that they're literally emotional extensions of him, I don't know... I thought it was kind of badass as a concept. Vanitas can just create countless stans that do whatever and represent different emotions of the heart. It was cool as a plot point when you realized killing them did absolutely nothing but feed directly into Vanitas.
@@Zayindjejfj And then they made it pointless by putting Emblem Heartless in χ and Dark Road, explaining it by claiming that they exist because the Master of Masters basically doing Time Travel with the Book of Prophecies.
@@TLG_Luke yeah that was kind of shitty.
Kingdom Hearts is the fun we allowed ourself to have along the way.
This is exactly correct
Dance water dance
Anger and Hate are supreme
Ew.
@@Synathidy OH YOU THINK THATS _"GROSS"_ *DO YA??*
"My guess is no one's ever loved you before. Because you know nothing about hearts and love."
Woody over here spitting straight fire.
But after you know Xehanorts backstory, his motivations (through a shitty mobile game) only then can you grasps, how much of an asshole Woody was than and there and you felt guilty for not stopping Woody saying those words.
@@15Seili Uh no, going through tragedy doesn't mean you get the right to harm and murder others. Xehanort desevered that.
@@15Seili Young Xehanort hasn't even been through those events yet.
I'm still leaning towards Woody.😔

"Kingdom Hearts will never happen again"
Why did I start crying at that sentence...
its true you know
There's never going to be a game like this, y'know.
Unless someone does some gold with another company or whatever we're so not seeing something like this for decades.
"Why didn't we get to see Xehanort seeing all this darkness? Maybe it'll come in a spin-off in a few years."
The mobile game from 2020:
Nomura actually wanted it to be a console game, but he changed his mind when he saw his team go "white in the face in dread" when he proposed the idea.
He wrote this as an announcement in Dark Road when it released.
@@chrisdaughen5257 OH ARE YOU KIDDING ME????
@@ahli64 He then said his phone battery was dying as he wrote that announcement. A bit unnecessary to include that statement.
@@ahli64 no, he said it was going to before 3 but KH3 had terrible development cycle cause disney. Hence, remind was made and dark road was cancelled, later into mobile which should turn into movie or game alongside Union when it get's to PS5. You can read pre kh3 release interview with him and he just basses disney to the ground LOL.
@@sarthakarora3212 Disney is why KH3's Frozen level was so bad, and why friggin' Marshmallow was the party member (Which I honestly approve of in that case, Marshmallow is my dawg.).
Disney didn't want him touching SHIT with Frozen, so he had to finagle something out of it.

Who would've thought a Final Fantasy and Disney crossover would do so well. Now all we need is a Dragon Quest and Dreamworks crossover.
Pardon me for being a huge A-hole but...
*Square and Disney crossover
@@Redxan600 especially considering that the new saga may be going to Square Enix worlds with Disney characters making an appearance, a reverse to the series so far
No qe don't:)
@@christonadams9046 I highly doubt that's going to happen. So far, we've been going through Disney worlds throughout the Kingdom Hearts series. Just going through Square Enix's worlds just may be a a weird idea and it breaks the continuity of visiting Disney worlds.
@@Redxan600 consider the ending to Re:Mind's DLC and Melody of Memory. It feels like it's teasing at it and seems a bit more likely than you think
Originally the story for 3 was gonna be about Xehanort, but Nomura said it needed to be shelved at the time. Then the Union X team wanted to make it, and they were given a green light, and that's how we got Dark Road. It's actually really good story wise. So far uses disney worlds best in the series.
Hope it gets a remake
Actually Xehanort was gonna have his own game before 3, but like you said it got shelved.
@@cillbipher2613 No. Nomura said he was thinking about 3 being about Xehanort in his younger days and how he became the man he is.
It does feels obvious that in Nomura’s original draft of the script there was a Xehanort prologue. There’s little reason for the game to open with his and Eraqus’ cutscene otherwise. When you consider that Scala ad Caelum was also supposed to be a hub world and Sora is in the Final World in KH3’s tutorial, I get the feeling Nomura was originally going for a Harry Potter 6 scenario where Sora sees the “memories of Xehanort” (which have been hinted since KH2’s Secret Ending). Dark Road is a shame. For who Master Xehanort was as a character and what he represents for the series, his story deserved much better treatment (either a cutscene movie or 0.2 style short game).
@@iggyp4390 Well, when they were still making the game with Luminous engine there was a scene they showed behind the closed doors where Sora would walk into that room where they were playing chess. Idon't think Xehanort went out bad. Sure it would be cool to get dark road as a big game, but that's gonna happen after Union X and DR are done. I don't undertsand why people say they redemed him, tho.
When I first played 3d I thought the dreameater-mon thing was a stupid gimmick so I ignored it entirely. I proceeded to have a shit time with the game right up until I think the first young xehanort fight with riku and it was just impossible. I then learned that leveling up the dreameater-mon is literally how you get new commands and abilities... So yeah, they are actually pretty important.
Thats one of the reasons I don't really want to replay it any time soon. The combat and flowmotion is so good, but then anytime you want to try new moves you gotta grind minigames hard to raise the Dream Eaters affection
Kingdom Hearts is just personified fun. It asks you to just let go and have fun with the journey, rather then worry about the destination. I feel like people forget that too much nowadays when it comes to games. Sometimes, letting go and just having fun with the experience, no matter how dumb or campy or ridiculous it may get is the best part. Some of my favourite games are just that - dumb fun.
Wish people thought that for the sonic series. P A I N.
This way of describing KH helps make it feel more Disney since that's also what Disney's about
"kingdom hearts will never happen again"
good thing it's not over then, eh? we only just finished the xehanort saga. there's still story to tell.
Nomura: ITS OVER WHEN I WANT IT TO BE OVER KBASH
There’s a LOT.
Ventus, Marluxia, & Saix backstory. The Verum Rex/Yozora stuff. Union Cross stuff. Dark Road. Kairi & Aqua doing stuff together. The foretellers & Master of Masters returning. Malicifent and Pete potentially actually doing things now.
Like god dang. I’m super excited
@@BobbyTheGamerOfJUSTICE I just wanna see MoM and Braig's story finished out, every other plot thread can be left dangling for all I care.
The Xehanort Saga ending felt like such a massive cop-out, especially after getting invested in Unchained X/Union Cross.
Just give me the end of the story for the love of all that is holy
@@SallionMang Tbf the Union Cross stuff has always felt like future saga stuff to me anyways. So it wasn’t surprising to me that it wasn’t too important in regards to KH3.
What he meant is that nothing's ever gonna be like Kingdom Hearts is. Like, we'll never again get a videogame so pure with such grandiose, so sincere in just wanting to be fun
That final shot in 3 perfectly summarizes my feelings on the ending of this series.
"The suffering (wait) is over, but now something important to me is gone."
I mean tbf the series is far from over lol
Im so glad I watched this. It was really nice to see someone just have fun with the game.
Kingdom hearts 3 was my favorite of the series because i went in thinking of it as a disney park ride. Yeah, i waited long in the lines and that sucked but damn it, that rollercoaster was so freaking amazing.
Its a game about being hopeful and playing around. Its not a children's game, its childs wonderment personified into a game. It was fun. :)
Yes
That was probably the most beautiful way to describe Kingdom Hearts 3.
Yeah, the game was fun. The narrative left a lot to be desired though
“Damn Donald, DAMN.”
As a fan of Kingdom hearts, I've enjoyed all of it. Yes, it certainly has faults from a critical point of view and it's not for everyone.. But I just love it. A franchise that will make me buy their games as soon as possible. It's just.. So fun, so weird and so nostalgic. The fact that it even exists is.. Magical.
And I will say that critical mode in KH3 is actually pretty fantastic and well made.
Sorry, the Xehanort game is in the gacha dimension.
garbage dimension, the mobile games need HD cutscene remakes
@@8bitmagic they need either whole movies or just straight up mmorpgs. I can't fuckin stand the fact that they'd put a good story with potential with decent characters on a goddamn mobile game...but it's not like they haven't done that before
@@m0ckyzo185 I just hope that UnionX and DarkRoad get the Re:Coded treatment, a full remake. maybe one day
@@FreyOdyssey you know, they could make an Kh MMO with union as the basis.
@@Zayindjejfj yea, too bad I don't enjoy MMO's
best hype moments in gaming:
- 1k heartless solo in kingdom hearts 2
- previous keyblade wielders help you vs heartless storm in kingdom hearts 3
place these wherever on the list you like. as long as there on the list, we good.
I have a severe love/hate relationship with KH. It's so campy and sweet and it fills my stomach with Disney cheese and nostalgia that I can't help but smile. The combat in KH2 is still something I always go back to just because of how snappy and satisfying it is. And as much of a disappointment KH3 was to me personally, I don't think it's a bad game, and I would be lying if I said I didn't cry like a baby from start to finish.
Thanks for this series retrospect, it pretty much captured why this franchise is so unique and special to a lot of people. Hope to continue seeing more of your content.
Kh3 dissapointment? Nice lie dude
Not a single mention of Remy and the cooking SMH my head so hard
The bit about gummyships had me cracking lmao “i dont know where to start!” *moves on to something else*
You convinced me to give kh3 another try, I gave up in the frozen world but I realized I just wasnt allowing myself to have fun with it and was in too much of a serious mindset. Gonna give it another shot once I'm done with a few other games
I feel like gaming culture nowadays willingly sets itself up for disappointment. Like years of unreasonable hype followed by swift and noisy complaint is practically incentivised. KH3 has its flaws, and I'd even agree it was weaker than KH2. Did it take too long to come out? Yes, but that's also a matter of perspective since some people had the wacky belief that the game was in active development as far back as 2006. I'm sorry for anyone who had all their expectations crushed with disappointment, but Kingdom Hearts 3 was still a pretty satisfying finale to the saga on its own merits, even if it doesn't have the same highs as KH2.
Finally I thought I was the only one that felt like this
We live in a sad time where cynicism and irony is what sells. It might be good for a few laughs but in the end it hurts us.
It’s square’s fault they shouldn’t have announced the game in 2013 Only to then push the game back, switch engines which means they had to start from scratch, then delay the game like 2 more times. Kh3 was a long awaited game from Long times fans and newcomers who kept hearing about and after all that hype it really didn’t deliver. To an even worser and grander extent something like cyberpunk2077 fail victim to.
Im still mad i can't just play the numbered titles and ignore everything else
@@nathanielhaven3453 I get ya. It was bad enough when character introductions were relegated to a GBA card game, but dropping (pun intended) crucial story developments in a 3DS game was ridiculous. At least they're all on home consoles now, but it feels like recoded and KHUX are the only ones you can safely ignore.
Playing kingdom hearts 3 on ps5 is by FAR the best experience i ever had! I even beat all the dlc bosses and that was a pure joy.
"Don't see no Xigbar sidestory" I mean technically the Sora story is a sidestory to Xigbars bullshit, but sure.
Tbh the only thing about 3 I really disliked was that they, again, didn't do anything with the disney worlds. With all the stuff that fans wanted; Kairi development, Roxas, Xion and Axel reunion, Mickey and Riku to not feel sidelined etc. They coulda done some of it over the Disney worlds to make it not feel super intense at the end. But I guess it wouldn't be Kingdom Hearts without a break neck pace at the end of the game while someone turns into a god or something
I thought the exact opposite??? In KH3 the Disney were the most relevant they’ve been since KH1. They all tied to the narrative in some way shape or form.
@@BobbyTheGamerOfJUSTICE I felt like in this one they were just kinda there, aside from Monsters Inc and Hercules maybe, whereas in KH1 the whole point is the villains of each world are trying to harness the power of darkness. In 2 the Organization is tryna create more heartless to summon kingdom hearts, so they go to each of the worlds to see about stirring up trouble. In KH3 you just kinda go to them to see if you can unlock the power of waking, which you don't.
I feel like they coulda been used better in all the games, but 3 had so much ground people wanted it to cover and not using the disney worlds probably hurt it
Whats most baffling for me is how many scenes we have between worlds where characters talk a lot but accomplish nothing. Axel and Kairi's "training", Riku and Mickey trying to save Aqua, the Organization members discussing about their past lives, the New Princesses of Heart, etc. It all goes nowhere and fails to developt these characters.
The narrative fails to progress and sits still waiting for Sora to unlock the Power of Waking and solve all problems himself.
The DLC , even though it didn't have good reviews, saved Kingdom hearts 3 for me. It has all the things that i felt was missing in KH3. Kairi action, explorable Scala ad Caelum, Quick Time Events Fights, Oblivion and Oathkeeper keyblades, more abilities, critical mode, 1v1 Organisation Boss battles, playable Roxas...It was a love letter to the fans. And not to forget the badassary that is Yozora.
“I know a keyblade combo will get the job done quicker but there’s a merry go round!” I mean...he’s not wrong
I can't explain how much I absolutely loved my first playthrough of KH3 and how confused I was at the dissatisfacation of so many others that played it. The game genuinly lived up to almost all of my expectations, even down to the fact that I predicted the structure of the last act. But as much as I do love the game, the complaints are so insanely justified that I'm not even confused anymore but I still had fun.
Thank you for this wonderful series of videos.
I'm happy that you were able to condense this into words. I've been defending KH3 to people for ages and it's hard not to be frustrated by people's complaints, valid or otherwise, when they are obstinately refusing to enjoy parts of the game that aren't KH2. It's the same complaints over and over, attractions, no FF characters, I don't understand the plot because I didn't play anything after 2, combat is spam x till the thing dies, etc. I'm not saying they're wrong for having certain expectations, but the game doesn't merit the absolute deluge of trash it got for not being the same game over and over again.
Agree, a lot of KH2 fans are too much elitist and don't see the flaws of that game (my favourite btw). In the other hand, I had the same problem but with the KH3 fans (and all fandom in general), when I point out the flaws of the series, especially the story, the answers are always like "it's a personal taste" or "for each their own". Fair, but not real arguments. I think most of the fandom don't know to separate the personal taste from the sense of critic, thinking are 2 directly connected things
The game doesnt merit its backlash? Dude, please tell me if you think the story in KH3 is any good and explain to me why, because that was a big factor as far as the feedback this game has received and it definitely wasnt just combat. It's not about KH2. I have played a lot of the other games in the KH series thst I have genuinely enjoyed like 358/2 days and birth by sleep. this game was the worst one by far for me, KH2 being the best as far as combat. But when you have a game whose predecessor (KH2) already has established a high standard of what the game should be and the successor is just not that, then obviously people are going to complain. It's the exact same reason why people complain about how Sega hasnt released a good sonic game in the past 10 years when they have released games in the past that have already established a standard of how far the game could go. Instead of trying build on that, they make lackluster games, and sure, THOSE lackluster games can have elements to be enjoyed just as how you described for KH3, but that doesnt make the game QUALITY. It presents absolute mediocrity. That's why people complain
@@AnEpicFatalityArchives don't know if you are answering to me or caytayori, but agree absolutely for everything you said. Yeah I know I've also agreed to the original post, but only for the elitism. How I've said, KH fans doesn't know distinguish sense of criticism with personal taste (also KH2 fans). KH2 wasn't perfect, but damn have setted an high standard for the combat, never reached from any game in the series. The avarage KH3 fans answer is like "why you didn't complain about the same stuff in previous KH games", my answer is "because I was a kid in 2006, and it was a PS2 games with only 2 previous games. This is a 2019 PS4 game with a lot a previous games, and despite this fact it reatain the same issues..."
@@riccardobortolin4120 it's not about how old or new the game is ? It's either the good or not and kh3 sadly didn't deliver on what makes the previous games had something special in it especially kh2
@@kerozine819 how I've said to ninja it's also about how much old is the game and how many titles were release before. If we count this KH2 did great, 3 did mediocre
thanks for giving kingdom hearts the retrospective it truly deserves. focusing on bad gameplay elements is completely missing the point of what makes kingdom hearts what it is. you've articulated something that i think the actual majority of the fanbase feels. kh2 will always be the masterpiece action rpg, but every game is still fun and beautiful in its own right! keep up the awesome work kbash
In my opinion the series as a whole is a masterpiece. Flawed, but a masterpiece nontheless.
How can be wrong focusing on GAMEplay for a videoGAME retrospective?
@@riccardobortolin4120 Right?? If we can't critique bad gameplay, whats left can't be called a game. Sooner or later devs will realize they don't need to put any intricacies into gameplay elements and that people are happy to watch 60 hours of cutscene 'gameplay'.
Honestly, so glad to hear positive things about KH 3. Kingdom Hearts 3 on critical (post Re-Mind) using only the Kingdom Key is the most fun I've had in the series, mechanically speaking.
Its good to see Kbash had the same reaction i did when Yen Sid actually did something for the first time
It's genuinely amazing how objective Kbash can be. He acknowledges flaws where they are, and it's refreshing.
I just wanted to verbalize that appreciation.
same here, I appreciate a person who can enjoy something in spite of it's flaws. showcases how important the thing is as an experience
I don't understand why others can't understand something like this. It's okay to acknowledge flaws but doesn't mean you can't still enjoy what's good about it.
@@XentusXL i can't say where it comes from but i think at some point people just kind of took up the idea that you need to have objectively good taste for your opinions to have weight. I don't think most people even realize they do it on autopilot tbh
I personally didn't enjoy KH3, and don't think I ever could, but I can see and acknowledge why someone might have fun with it.
I think its perfectly fine if people dont like it but I just think people shouldn't hate or degrade others for enjoying it. I know its popular to shit on certain series like Kingdom Hearts but seems dumb considering if it were reversed they'd find anyway to defend whatever it is they prefer right?
Your explanation of Dante and Ryu's personality being realized in their moveset is exactly why people call the sub-genre "Character Action", because the Action is dictated by the character that is being used because it is supposed to pair with that character's personality and lore.
While I wouldn't say it is the core sub-genre of KH, it is definitely one of the sub-genres that apply to it, and your explanation here explains why.
Love the video, might be my favorite on KH so far due to how you explain the experience from different perspectives.
KBash, I don’t always comment, but just wanted to drop one to let ya know I watch and love all of these. Hope you keep doing this for as long as you find it fulfilling, thanks for the great work.
Dream Drop Distance is a game I slowly learned to appreciate. I'm a longtime fan of the series, but DDD was... strange at first. It took me a while to come to terms with it, especially the Dream Eaters, but after more and more playthroughs, it's actually tied with Birth By Sleep as my favorite entry in the entire series. The story's wild, the Dream Eaters are actually pretty fun if you really learn how they work, I can never get enough of the pinball minigame, and the entire ending is like an 8-fight boss rush. It's incredible. And THANK YOU for what you said about the Drop Meter. It really isn't as bad as everyone makes it out to be. You're given so many Drop-Me-Nots that make the meter almost completely irrelevant. It's gotten to the point where I pretty much never drop unless I deliberately choose to, usually because I've already finished a world with one character without dropping once, and now I want to do that world with the other.
Also, thank you for being so positive when it came to KH3. I wish I enjoyed it as much as you seemed like you did. That's not to say I don't like it -- I do. A lot, actually. Pretty much everything after the final Disney world is some of my favorite stuff I've seen in the series, and everything I ever wanted from the game, and I absolutely love it for that. But getting to that point had a lot of ups and downs for me. I need to give it another replay sometime, and look at it with new eyes.
Kingdom hearts is all fun until tetsuya nomura get into his creative mode
Do you think you could give TWEWY a play?
It's got some of the most relatable characters In all of gaming despite their designs and the music is a bop.
The Protag is an ass at the start tho.
I'd love to see him play The World ends with you since it's sequel comes out this year
What you mean despite? They're awesome!
It's really refreshing to see a positive review of KH3. The game has a shit ton of problems, but damn did it make me smile.
Man something about waiting 14ish years just to get a 30 hour Disney commercial with a rushed ending tends to make you a bit salty. Enjoy your content man ready for the next one.
7:53 "I wouldn't be surprised if they made a kh spinoff where you write letters to your friends for powerups" well TECHNICALLY you actually do that in bbs. The d-link gauge's replenishing item is called a balloon letter. The air equivalent of a message in a bottle. Which in this universe are probably all magic to some extent so they always reach their intended recipient considering that shit actually works. Ill be honest though, if they ever bring back the d link system id fucking love a minigame where you can write random dumb shit to Disney characters
I love that he reviewed kh3 so positively. Honestly its as he said, its a game where u just need to have fun! Fuck all that sweaty try hard shit, smile with sora and get in the cup
kbash is setting camps of KH fandom at each other, lets watch
This is the real Keyblade war. Between the purists and the fun havers.
I honestly hope not lmao, cuz his insights and opinions are some of the best I've seen from all the big RUclipsrs who talked about it
Pure poetry, Kbash. I'm so happy you took the chance and dived into this series, and I'm even happier to see much it clicked with you. Subscribed.
Allowing yourself to have fun is something you've got to learn by yourself (?). In any case, is a very important thing to know how to do, it seems.
7:58 "where you write letters to your friends for power ups"
Me looking at Megaman Starforce, form transformation requirments:.......... *huh*
I am quite jealous of you and anyone else that had a great time with kh3. I found most of it a bore because of the lack of difficulty on both proud and critical mode (albeit they actuality made an attempt with critical). Most of my gripes are with Papa Disney because I'm sure they let Nomura only do 10% of what he wanted to do with the Disney worlds, which is why he's shying away from them, I'm sure. I'm hoping I can find the magic you found in the next game.
You know I may think otherwise about certain parts of KH3( I thought on release it was too easy, but that massively changed when the dlc came out) but the times were you werent being funny and giving evidence of your opinion on stuff made me see it in a better light and I greatly respect that.
Xemnas never stood a chance against SIMP GOOOOD
That was amazing!!! You showed the while series as it is and I loved it. Can't wait for you next series video! Keep up the great work KBash!!!!
Dawg, I seriously enjoy your content! I had been following your KH retrospectives for a while and it was so interesting to see what you thought without the feelings of nostalgia tainting your experience. I'm very glad you enjoyed the series and appreciated KH3 for what it was. If anything, I see any sequels of old franchises as a way to really reflect on how much I have changed since I first played the original games. All the people complaining about this and that have forgotten what it was like to love a game despite its flaws. I think it is because growing up and dealing with life is a draining process where we are disconnected from the children we all are at heart.
I think Nomura needs a new IP. he can leave all the disney behind and just weave his own complex narratives with characters that relate and grow over multiple games.
the kh Fandom can rip into me for this but the story doesn't matter but it's the journey and saving the worlds
"It's like a unicorn, it shouldn't exidt, but it does."

Kingdom Hearts is the Jojo's of videogames.

My Friend That mode and vergil are the only thing keeping from never playing DMC4 ever again, also its the only mode where vergil finds any chalenge whatsoever
That outro got me. I played maybe half of 3, after having played only 2 and birth by sleep. This series has me wondering if I need to go back and play all the games for what they are.
Good god Kbash, what a great video. Your line about moving past that time in your life when you theft positivity is so true, sometimes you have to just choose to have fun and enjoy things!
I was hoping you'd delve deeper into KH3's DLC, but I'm glad you were able to enjoy these games. KH3 didn't do it for me until the DLC, but this series has always been a blast.
All that being said, the energy displayed in these videos has been infectious. Even before this vid, your opinions got me reinvigorated to the point to give base KH3 another shot, which has been a fun ride thus far. I'm almost sad you're caught up, tbh. Either way, great vid!
I'm kinda sad that there will never be another game franchise like this one... I didn't grow up with Kingdom Hearts, but it feels so nostalgic to me.
I just recently got into the franchise btw. I'm still playing the first game on the XBOX One and I can't wait until I get to play the others.
I was not prepared for devilgaidenetta, now it's all I need
*_Square Enix said there will be a fourth..._*
*_The Kingdom Hearts in the future._*
Once I finished Kh3 , I was felt hollowed. But hollowed In a way of unfulfillment. Kh3 didn't conclude this build up in a way that was satisfying to me the way I finished Kh1 and 2. That whole Union X crap with the black box and what not took away from the Big Xehnort and saving the others plot. Sora's character, felt better than his DDD counterpart but he didn't seem as good as his first two game personalities. He came off as a doof after the intro and kept getting his ass beat. We literally could've just had BBS....then Kh3 right off the bat. No matter what comes after it, I'm closing a book of my childhood and laying it to rest. A bittersweet end.
I disagreed w/ most of what was said in this vid but I’m glad you, and many others, had an amazing ride w/ it. In the end, that’s what videogames should thrive for and if it gave yall that experience, then that’s something to celebrate.
Literally the greatest beginning to any video ever.
God, for as much as I played KH3 I NEVER noticed 5 FPS Hercules what the fuc-
Kingdom hearts 3 was easily my favorite in the series. I don’t think there ever been a game that’s made me feel so complete, yet so hyped for what the future of the series has in store all at the same time.
Another KH3 video popped in my algorithm so I had to return to these KH videos to see an opinion that wasn't blinded by nostalgia. You know to see a dude appreciating the fun & emotional parts of a series...
Goddamn I wish I felt the same, Kbash.
But I played everything (except BBS and 0.2) before KH3, and it was that last game that fucking broke me. I absolutely hated it.
The writing, the combat, the pacing -- it got to me. How the fuck are we so deep into the series and still getting terrible, disconnected Disney worlds that don't do anything beyond recycling better movies? What the fuck am I doing with my life? I got to the Tangled world, played through it for an hour, and completely lost it.
The series finally ran out of the good will it had built up for me. Maybe I just finally fell out of sync with the target audience, maybe I just hate fun? But I'm so bummed all that time I spent on the series turned into ash in my mouth at the last bite.
If it ain't TWEWY, Nomura is dead to me.
Kingdoms Hearts 3, when spamming the ultimate key blade equals winning!
IMO as a KH2FM die hard, 3 with Remind is now my favorite game to play. Critical mode is really fun and pushes out the best the combat system has to offer. Especially the new superbosses.
Unfourtunatley, it seems like the experience for difficulties below critical are still kind of a mess for the more casual players based on your description.
Alright. This was a fun ride.
Thanks for making me realize how much of a KH simp I am.
very refreshing seeing such a positive take on KH3 thank you mr bash
Not only was it positive, it ignored almost every negative. Great.
@@salty_lake I hate KH3, I dislike the series as a whole. was just nice to see someone overlook those things and enjoy a piece of media!
I won't lie. I actually fucking cried at the ending of KH3. Not just cause Sora got Thanos'd, but it felt like I reached the end of a journey. A journey that started for me all the way back in 2001. And some issues aside, KH3 can never take that feeling away from me.
Okay that's the best defense I've seen for Attraction Flows, cheers to you KBash
Great video, glad you liked kh3, it sits weird with me because throughout the series theres a stable bell curve in maturity and intelligence in the characters and then like you said in dream drop it just kinda drops a couple steps and plateaus from there forward.
Your nobody, XbohKs. Lmfao that got me good.
I hate this series, but still watch these videos. Keep doing your thing, Canada King.
15:53 Devilgaidenetta is, in every sense, the gayest, fiercest thing I have ever seen and I AM HERE FOR IT.
I praise all kingdom hearts positivity a true kh fans know the pros out shine the cons
I’m so happpy I’m not the only one who absolutely ADORES FLOWMOTION. They nerfed it in 3 and that made me sad.
imagine if they didn't nerf it. It would be mega ultra op, it would be so fun.
I love kingdom hearts, thank you for this video and the previus one, they are the things i want to see and hear about my favourite game series
Loved your video, man. I, too loved KH3 for the same reasons. Sometimes you just gotta be along for the crazy ride to truly enjoy these games.
In retrospect the ReMind DLC didn't come out far from launch technically. But looking back, yeah the original release of KH3 really did end on a sour note with a full year for them to touch it up while still having us pay for it.
>He liked it
YEAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
no matter what happens to Kingdom Hearts and how much hate it gets, I'll always love it forever and it will be my fav series forever. this series means so much to me and it always will
KBash's character development throughout KH series was top ten anime betrayals. Well done..still won't play it tho but well done
This completely changed my mind on KH3. It is just a fun time and KH2 combat will always be there
When you said kingdom hearts is a contained story I died
I have to give it credit, kh is one of those series i feel like i can't critique without making an essay of it and that often means there was something about it worth exploring at one point or another. I'm just kind of bummed that i think the parts of it I and others resonated with have come and gone.
Sidenote:the heap of issues you mentioned stick out like a sore thumb in critical mode ngl, once I got Oblivion I vowed to never touch critical again
Last time I was this early was the E3 this was announced at.
Even with the whole fun bits, I still can't do the attractions bit. Everything else is awesome, but...just man. It's like "let's stop this entire game so we can ride teacups!"
The first time I've played 0.2 I've said "I really hope KH3 won't use this battle system"...
"Maybe on a later spin-off we will be shown rather than told about Xehanort's reason to follow his plan"
Okay, yeah uhh. . . who is gonna tell him about the mobile game that is doing exactly that.
15:55 Devilgaidenetta needs to be the poster boy (?) of character action spectacle fighters games. Put it on a shirt.
