    New character, new tests! Managed to get a pretty big video in for them, too. I hope you enjoy this final DLC-focused Random Facts video, and continue to support me going forward with more content :)
    Also I apologize if there’s anything slightly off in the video, testing-wise or just explanation-wise, as I’ve never touched a Kingdom Hearts game, so I don’t know much about the lore. I tried to keep things based around the mechanics found in Smash and whatnot, but if there’s anything I need to correct (about ANYTHING, really), I’ll edit the pinned comment with it

      In a similar vein, dive to the heart will not trigger if 1 player in a 3 player match is on 1 stock and the other two are not, if the match is a free for all without teams. At least two players must have one stock left in order to trigger the effect.

    As a modder, I can tell you why the pitch changes for the stamina kill sound based on Sora’s size. The stamina kill sound is stored with the rest of Sora’s SFX instead of something like the common SFX, and the size affects the pitches of all character SFX.

      Unfortunately, the "boost" was pathetic and wasn't even remotely worth sacrificing an entire partner for. They did try to buff it in a later patch but overall it was a wasted feature.

    14:45 MAYBE the slowdown checks if the stocks are equal to 1 when the opponent dies, but in squad strike it sets the stocks to one earlier than a normal match, so the game thinks the match is ending since hp=0 and stocks=1 but then the last character spawning in cancels that

      It takes a sec to load the next char. When second to last is ko'd, it may look ahead to see that no characters remain, maybe not considering one thats loading for some reason, then getting canceled. Might be because since it tries to load the next one the moment one is knocked out, some different property with sora's effect rather than the norm, the effect sees the game is over for just that simultaneous moment, plays the first bit, then corrects. idk tho just came up with this havent done any research

    A quick lore note: Drive Forms having Sora "absorb" a certain party member is strictly a gameplay mechanic implemented for game balance as evidenced by the cutscene that introduces Drive Forms via Valor Form as well as every later cutscene where Sora remains in his Form if he was in one when the scene started yet Donald and/or Goofy are still there. What is actually happening is that Sora is drawing more power then usual from the respective ally's Heart to access and maintain the Form.
    Also it's definitely as much of a sword as it is a magic skeleton key. It's been used to perform some seriously impressive slicing feats just as often as it's been used to seal/unseal something.

These Drives could be accessed through the command menu once a gauge was at a certain point and gave Sora increased power, but at the cost of a party member. So Valor form would cost Goofy, Wisdom form would cost Donald, and more powerful forms would cost both.

    I don't know if you've already covered this, but here's a fun fact about Spirits:
    The Azura Spirit increases Weapon damage output and movement speed, and takes two slots. However, both of her effects are worse than those provided by Spirits that give only one of them and take just 1 slot each. That means you're better off equipping a Speed-increasing Spirit and a Weapon-boosting Spirit than equipping Azura, both because you get better effects from them AND because Azura's Spirit inflates your Spirit Power way more (which makes you potentially get worse rewards).

    I guess the reason the final hit's sound effect scales with size is because it's one of Sora's "personal" sound effects (presumably coded as one of his "voicelines"), and therefore scales like the rest of them and the developers just forgot to make it an exception, idk

    The way the forms worked in the second game is you are borrowing the power of your friends in order to dual wield. In doing so it dismisses the friend who you are borrowing the power from, Valor (the first form you get after the intro) borrows from goofy thus he disappears from battle until the duration of the form runs out (which increases by leveling the form and obtaining more drive gauges).

  • @TrueReverse74
    @TrueReverse74 2 года назад +1

    I'm gonna try and explain just for fun. The "sacrificing" of goofy just means he's not available as a party member, he's not dead. regarding the keyblade being a sword, it can certainly function as a sword but it's really not. it's main purpose is about opening and closing things, although it can cut, not everything that cuts is a sword. Sakurai could've included much more if he wanted to like reflect, the beam (as a regular attack), or maybe even a limit system with ars, giga impact, etc. the magic in kh shouldn't be understated, anyway I hoped that cleared up somethings.

    Hi, I only started watching Sora stuff today and don't own the character (been busy), but from your overview, here's how I think it works?
    If a non-projectile attack hits Sora's counter, the opponent will have their state forced to be an animation cycle like if they had clashed with an attack (the timing seems static). Projectile hits will change the projetile's owner to Sora but not affect them otherwise. TRANSCENDANT hits seem to be what trigger that immediate version where Sora swings, I guess since they can't clash with attacks? I'm also assuming there's a grace period after the activation where Sora will still ATTEMPT to stun the opponent, but if that fails, he'll insta-swing. I say that last part, because I know Charizard's Flare Blitz can just SOMETIMES activate the fast-swing, but maybe it is JUST range or first hitbox, since we see him consistently fast swing against Marth's stepping hitbox on Up-Smash, which can't clank with attacks (unless im dumb oops). As for why this works against Kaclang, I do think the move SPECIFICALLY forces the character's state, which is why Wonderwing also gets hit-- those moves can always clash with attacks, it's just that the properties of them otherwise make it seem pointless.
    'Would love to see someone prove me wrong! I see this move getting portrayed as janky sometimes, but it seems to work in my head. *shrug

    The reason why the special Stamina Mode KO effect has its pitch affected by Sora's size is that the sound effect used is treated as a voice line of Sora's.

  • @dr_ill
    @dr_ill 2 года назад +1

    From some experimenting with the special stamina mode ending, I found the following:
    If you do a team stamina match, with Sora and another character on one team but with team attack on - if you have Sora deal the winning blow, but hit Sora with a final smash from the teammate right around when you hit the final blow, it overrides the special win screen. With cinematic ones like Joker's, you can get sorta weird results - if you don't hit Sora but mash the special button right after Sora hits the final blow, you get Joker's face to appear in the lower corner during the fade out.

  • @Liggliluff
    @Liggliluff 2 года назад +1

    (14:35) My guess: because when they get KOd, there's a final KO happening for that specific character as there's one stock left. Kind of a weird quirk as if every character is it's own player with 1 stock, but the effect only plays when the actually player is on their last stock, which they are when you KO the second to last. It's hard to explain in a way that makes sense.

    In regards to Sora’s stamina finish pitch fact: When sized differently, all voice lines from a character gets pitched according to size. The game probably regards the sound effects in the stamina mode finish as part of Sora’s voice lines since it’s character specific. Thus, they are pitched in the same way a normal voice line would be. Also yes I checked the effect is not in Sora’s list of voice lines in the sounds menu.

    That the pitch for Sora's stamina mode finish changes is probably because it is tied to Sora's other soundeffects. Because the changing of the size of any character changes the pitch of all their soundeffects, it most likely also just applies this pitch change to the finishing effect as well.

    When a character is made larger their voice decreases in pitch. It increases when they're made small. Considering the pitch of the slow down is effected by the size of sora, it implies the sound is technically "given off" or "originated" from sora himself, in the same way his voice would if he spoke, rather than it being a static sound the game plays when conditions are met.

    Okay so for a bit of clarity on the Valor form thing, basically in KH2 Sora’s clothes allow Sora to use Drive Forms and one of the forms uses Goofy’s power to transform into Valor form where your attack and mobility is greatly increased, especially since you get to wield 2 keyblades at the same time (Sora’s 6th costume, the red alt, is actually Valor form), however after Sora runs out of his drive (or if you manually cancel using the form) he will return to his normal form with Goofy returning to the battlefield. The “sacrificing goofy” was a joke that many people do since when you use Valor form Goofy is removed from the party momentarily (as Sora is currently using Goofy’s power).
    Also if you are wondering, Sora’s 7th costume, the blue alt, is actually based on Wisdom form, a Drive Form where Sora instead uses Donald’s power to greatly increase Sora’s mobility and magic. While Sora only wields 1 keyblade unlike Valor form, he instead attacks with mostly magic-based attacks unlike Valor form. The same thing happens with Valor Form where instead Donald is momentarily removed from the party and returns when Wisdom Form has ended.
    Hope this helps for those who are a bit confused after hearing the “sacrificing Goofy” joke
