    Having met Bret Iwan (the voice of Mickey Mouse), I think I know why the voice acting sounds so bad. One of my friends asked him about his opinion on the Kingdom Hearts games, and he said he doesn’t really know much about the story, and the voice actors don’t get much context for their lines.

      Hi i’m french and i wanted to say that this problem was also for the french counterpart because for kingdom hearts 1, when the cast ask how they portrayed the characters and how they would dub, they say that they just had the concept art (so not even the final version of the characters) and the script with no context at all and they just had to imagine what to do for the rest of the game

    • @sackofpeas2470
      @sackofpeas2470 5 лет назад +35

      That's one of the big issues with KH and why there is this split in the fanbase. Sure you have those that played the games on the various platforms, but there's also a sizable portion that only played the main titled games on PS2. The other games with their specific names come off as side-games, as we had KH then KH: Chain of Memories , followed by KH2. So for many, myself included, the portable games seemed more like their own separate entities that took place in the KH world.
      It's like with Star Wars. The main series are the trilogies, 1-3, 4-6, and 7-9. There are films/shows that take place in-between these films, but you don't need to watch those to be able to follow and understand the plot of the main trilogy.
      With KH, you could play 1 then 2 and have a pretty good understanding of what's going on. However with KH3, you need to have played the other games to understand all the lore/story connections that occur in that game.

They usually just add context or flesh something out for those that want more. KH doesn't have this. EVERY game is needed because the main story is stretched over them all. Its not a case of just getting some cool information, its actual plot and main story stuff. It was bad back when most people had no idea why KH2 started like it did but now there are half a dozen games not on the main consoles that you also need to play if you want the entire story. When a mobile game has plot relevant information, something has been fucked up.

      It’s because in order to access the sleeping realm, Sora needed to be present on a world that was currently falling to darkness. So Yen Sid used time travel to send Sora and Riku back in time to the Destiny Islands. Or rather, the time during KH1 where it fell to Darkness. Because of this, Sora and Riku were stuck in their younger selves bodies.

      The Brown Cloak Guy from 1 was Ansem, but Dream Drop says nah m8 that was time traveling Xehanort the whole time. My main point is that things can up and change like that. I know all the games happened but to which extent is questionable. Like how Nomura said that all side bosses are Canon. It doesn't take long to realize how strange that is. Like, Sora just said "Yo, let's check this weird orb out" and fought Lingering Will, and one. And then fought the entire organization but better in the Hall Of Rememberance

    • @BobbyTheGamerOfJUSTICE
      @BobbyTheGamerOfJUSTICE 5 лет назад +7

      @buisness the brown cloak guy in KH1 has ALWAYS been Ansem. Or rather, just his heart in a sack. That is why Ansem possessed Riku back in KH1 in the first place. That allowed him to gain a physical form which was basically a body that was morphed between both Riku and Terra-Nort. At least that’s how I always saw it as lol.
      Also remember what Young Xehanort said in DDD. In order to time travel, you must leave your body behind. Meaning your being has to ONLY be a Heart. In Ansem’s case before he possessed Riku, he was exactly that. A heart floating in a cloak. That is what allowed him to Time travel and recruit his younger self to bring back everyone for the final showdown in KH3.

    I thought people who enjoyed the series were at least past the whole “It’s soooo confusing” thing. While KH3 and DDD’s stories certainly are strange and had me scratching my head, all the other games make perfect sense. Never understood what was so hard for people to understand about them. Then again, from what I gathered from this video, he only really cares for the gameplay.
    I thought the some of the voices were fine. Sora sounds lightyears better than he did in DDD. Xigbar still sounds like a god. And side note: they cut him off because it was something of a tease. It’s related to the mobile game.

      Right? RUclipsrs such as Superbutterbuns have commented on this topic of people saying "KH is so confusing" and classifies that category of people as just one big meme. And plus, there was a hecc ton of time to go back and review what happened until the release of KH3. And to go further, KH3 makes the extra mile to include a summary of what goes on in each past title. There really is not much of an excuse at this point to say it is confusing.
      And the voice-acting didn't sound off or anything. Times change, things happen and whatnot. And yeah, the thing with Xiggy was just a big eye-opener for those who played KHUx. =) It's like, "Wait....HOW DOES HE KNOW THAT??? WHAT???" moment, lol.

      That being said, they could have had individual fights at certain parts of the story without one of them getting killed.
      The members could have been done something like testing Sora to see if he would survive the war and Sora wasn't strong enough to be a threat to them.
      Fighting multiple Organization members at the same time THE FIRST TIME you fight them just lowers their impact for me especially when there are gaps in the boss fights as you take them down. It should get harder not easier (look to Orenstein and Smogh as an example of it being done right)
      Veterans of the series won't have this problem since to them because they're reminded of the times they fought them in older games.

      They just didn't use the KH2 version of Sora to fight because they didn't wanted to.

    Been playing since KH 1. It was great back in the day as a kid. Didn't actually finish it until my second play through due to the last boss fight with the ten minute unskippable cut scene. Played KH 2 and loved it. It have what was great about the first one and made it better. The unknown were good new enemies, drive powers were good but didn't break the game. With 3 though I was SO hype. Had been waiting for a new game since 2 and brought a ps4 basically so I could play it. I got through Tangled and made it to Toy story and the was it. The game took too long to start and that's coming from a guy that loved the cut scenes in the first 2. The combat that I was so used to had changed to something that felt awkward now. It was too easy even for the start of the game. It also didn't feel like the start of the game honestly. So much shit had happened off screen or in side games that are also very different from the main ones. My excitement soon turned into boredom. You barely play the game in the first hour.
    In 2 they started adding more double attacks or reaction moves. These were either dodge based or you had to work for them in battle with decent sized wait times. 3 turns your battles into a non stop circus of flashy moves or things that should be saved for summons or something of those natures. Kingdom hearts is/was probably my favorite game series of all time. Having played through 1 and 2 two times with a third time being a guide to a friend I got into the series. I dropped it after like 2 hours. I feel they could have just kept 2's combat system and focused on graphics/animation. The new mechanics should compliment the old not replace them. I also didn't like how they changed interworld travel. It took me like 10 minutes to get to the next world. Rant over

    1. 6:49 You complain about twitter page loading screans? Why? it's funny!
    2. 11:23 Sora could run on walls before but only in cutscenes so now you can play it and you complain for more gameplay and less cutscenes?
    3. 12:25 His stats are low again, he is just LV1, he didn't forget to how to climb cliffs.
    4. 15:53 Each party member has an in-game meter constantly filling as you're in battles and when they are alive. When the meter is filled than you'll get a team-up attack for that character. If Sora does certain actions it will fill up their meters faster. If you dodge and guard a lot than you'll fill Goofy's meter. If you attack and use magic a lot than you'll fill Donald's meter. If you activate the ability Team Effort you'll begin the fight with a Disney partner's team-up attack.
    5. 16:18 You have subtitles at the bottom of the screen so whatever, I just want to hear the music.
    6. 16:30 It's just a joke man. Besides, for every joke the game tries you say ain't a nitpick, but how can you take seriously a series with an anime Mickey? Just accept the wierdness of it.
    7. Critical mode makes the special attacks much less frequent, and you can completely disable attractions from ever appearing (except for the Rock Titan and the 10000 heartless fight) thanks to the ability Critical Converter. If you activate this ability than you are always promised to get a transformation, even if you relied more on spells.
    8. 19:37 No, it's not pointless, it's for the next game.
    9. 20:24 Are... you... really... searching... for... realizm... in Kingdom fucking Hearts??????
    10. 20:38 What's bad about wall running? What's bad about formchanges (you just said they aren't drive forms, you didn't say what you dislike about transformations)? What's bad about the new water spell and the stronger spells?
    11. 27:14 That is only a problem if the things it introduces are badly implemented. Look at BoTW, you could do a lot of things but they all complement Link and are easy to understand. All the tools in KH3 are very simple (seeing that you only need to press tringle for most of them) and therefore it's easy to understand. And besides, you aren't forced to use everything, it's just that the game rewards you for understanding the mechanics and using all the tools at your disposal.
    Play on critical and I swear you will feel better with yourself.

Then he gets 0.2 seconds of screentime, right at the very end. Cool. I also wanted more playable keyblade weilders. We've got them all here, why can't I play as any of them? Imagine that instead of Keyblades for Sora, you would go on a mission after clearing a Disney world to help a companion, unlocking more as you went, but still having a slight choice. (You'd perhaps start with the ability to go after Lea, Kairi, or Aqua, going after Lea unlocks Roxas, then Xion, and going after Aqua would unlock Ventus, then Terra) You could've left Shotlock for the BBS trio, Shifted Forms onto the Days Trio, and left Drives for Sora.

Some people came to this game expecting it to beKingdom Hearts 2 upgraded, but if everyone looked at it for what it is, there wouldn't be as many complaints. I thought the game was great and I've played all the games up to this point.

      Totally with you. I played every game and after 3D the series took a dive into the trash. I sold my copy after playing through this crap. The dissapointment was just crushing

    It just didn’t feel right, the Disney worlds felt pointless and removing all square Enix character cameos felt like a big mistake, plus no type of tournament mode and only 1 relatively easy initial optional boss. And the rides suck

    It also doesn't help that the best keyblade in the game, besides the Ultima keyblade, is the 1st one you earn, Hero's Origin.

    I love this game, but that’s only because if this game was the series slapping me across the face and spitting on me I’d still love it.

    Would love see you coming back to this and trying out the dlc. I really believe they fixed the combat and made feel much more like KH2. I think the fixed combat system doesn't even need the dlc if you don't want to buy it.
