I Played Kingdom Hearts 2 Entirely in First Person Mode - No Reaction Commands or Lock On

KH2 has a built in First Person mode that allows you to preform most functions in the game, so I thought it would be interesting to do a whole playthrough using it!

I only ever do massive long form videos like this for certain features once in a blue moon but might consider doing more with other play throughs/challenges like randomizers/overhauls depending on what you guys seem to prefer. These videos take a lot longer to edit so we’ll see 🤔

[@misterfevillord1588]

If they are good for the channel, do them

[@parkerheal7049]

I’ll be honest I love the longer form videos, I know you stream consistently on twitch and it lets people like me who can’t always catch the streams watch a video of highlights

[@samex8275]

Whatever you wanna do. Even if the videos are short, they’re still entertaining as shit.

[@QTHuji]

ok but a VOD Channel? exceptional.

[@DawnOfFate]

you should check out the Ultimate Form/Final Form Overhaul Mod by Sora101Ven on nexus for KH3 its a really well done mod that brings final form back its still in its infancy and looks like it'll only get better with time

[@DANtheMANofSIPA]

Fans: “The camera is still too close to Sora!!!” Square Enix in KH4:

Kingdom Hearts 2: *gives Cynical a new keyblade for all his suffering* Cynical: "The fact you gave me a keyblade when I have the chicken slapper is extremely offensive."

[@zakariaradoine625]

9:43 legit one off the coolest ways to finish up a boss

[@MacGhillie-h3z]

Hey Cynical! Thanks for making my mornings better pretty much everyday. I’ve been lurking since KH3 came out. Keep it up homie! May your heart be your guiding key. 💗

[@TheGamersJoint]

Yo thanks for the heart felt message Wyatt, appreciate ya 💚

[@JeffCournoyerATC]

1:02:33 In all my years of playing this game, I never realized that you can wait and get a different reaction command on this damn fight. So many years of awkwardly falling and having NO IDEA WHY!!!

[@edgeofultima7483]

There's actually a third one that shows up for a Split Second and I think it automatically brings him to 1hp

[@blackliquidsorrow8249]

@@edgeofultima7483 it doesn’t to 1 hp but it does do a lot

[@frokydafroakie]

figured it out the 2nd time i used it

[@JayboCorp.2014]

I'm surprised; even without my current friend explaining to it, I still figured that's how it worked, when a friend first showed me that fight to me on PS2, _years ago._

[@RoseMultiverse]

There should be a mod that forces you to stay in first person no matter what. Also if someone did this in VR would be so fun to see! Lol

[@yvue1242]

58:03 Sora: "this is it!" "I told ya I don't have time to do this all DAY!"

[@xbolt678]

Just wanted to say thanks for all of the hardwork Jared! I wasn't able to catch all of this live, so I'll be enjoying the highlights 😁

[@13thNobodyprod.]

9:44 That reaction command is so cool! looks like Flowmotion

[@WarriorofRed]

I do agree it is kind of dumb and really annoying that you need to kill bosses and special enemies with a finisher

[@Lingeringwill4784]

Agreed. One time I almost kill data saix but then boom the bs and I died

[@86fifty]

phew, the whole thing in one video??? That IS a lotta editing! Great work on this, man!

[@Splunkmastah]

1:01:44 Oh my good the genuine panic never fails to make me laugh

if there we’re animations for first person it would be sick

Kingdom Hearts VR: View of Reality - Assault Heartless, and Nobodies with a giant key in high definition! 60fps! - Play as Sora (Cus f🦆k the rest) - 16x the FRIENDSHIP and QUESTIONS! - Seizures approved by DISNEY! - This might be a good spot to find INGREDIENTS!

or Virtual Reality VR not VOR

[@alucardavathorn8930]

now imagine doing a magic-only build

[@xXLunatikxXlul]

Super fun tbh

[@indrakasim505]

This is crazy man, this man deserves to be a real Keyblade Master👍

[@Rellik52o]

I just wish they made the key place visible in first person when swinging it

[@delaneyvandenbossche7913]

Your videos have always weirdly relaxed me, despite your screaming and raging! 🤣😤😎 Thank you for your constant innovation to KH and general fun! ❤️

[@theultimatefrozenfan]

51:45-58:04 that is why Roxas is the best, most badass character in Kingdom Hearts!!! Also he's my favorite!

[@MrKeyblademaster1992]

once you put the makeup on, had you given yourself a topknot instead of the pigtails, you'd have looked like Shadow Madarame from Persona 5

[@0MidnighttheDragon0]

6:30 after all these years I never knew that having Micky show up makes him less likely to do so going forward. now there actually being a choice to say no makes more sense

[@LePipsOG]

I remember I used to go through levels in fp for fun as a kid 🤣

Seeing those 7 year old clips were a real throwback.

Yo this is AWESOME! Some dude made an article about you completing kh2 in first person. Very nice indeed.

[@TylerHarff]

I remember joining this stream thinking this was impossible. I must admit you proved me wrong. Guess I’m gonna have to play through KH2 again for the millionth time just to attempt this.

[@mechashadow]

Times like these make me think a VOD channel would be fun to look back on

[@Official_MikeyT]

To this day the best KH Flex is Luke mSL beating Lingering Will, no damage in 1st person.

[@stonedmelodic7918]

Dude that roxas match must’ve been torture. Good job 👍

[@MusicalLoveAMV]

Seeing things from Sora's perspective is just plain terrifying, lolol!! 😂

[@HyrulianBeast]

POV: You're Sora trying to stop Organzation XIII while fighting many heartless at once.

[@Blizwolf]

It's funny, found this video on a random news article and was not at all surprised when I saw it was you. 😂

[@sodathejunker]

No wonder Sora’s an idiot, he’s suffering eternal whiplash and vertigo every moment of the day.

[@painfulgames9796]

What an amazing playthrough. I cant believe I havent seen this done before. Thank you! Also, Its actually very possible to skip xigbars special move mode or whatever that you refer to as DM. I dont quite remember how but I think all it takes is one well timed drive form or reload cancel. And you can command your allies to heal you using triangle actually (as long as they have the capacity to, and another party member doesnt need it more).

[@painfulgames9796]

@TheGamersJoint it looks like someone is pretending to be you and trying to scam me/others? No mention of a giveaway anywhere so I thought I would let you know

So I think the biggest strength of an anime protagonist is not getting motion sick. Holy shit, how do you vomit from all the crazy flips and dips you do!?

Dude this was so dope to watch. I didn’t even know you could go first person, let alone play the majority of the game that way. Major props, definitely worth some smooth turkey legs

Now imagine if Square Enix took this concept and decided expand upon it by making Kingdom Hearts compatible with VR. I know they have the free PSVR experience, but that's barely a taste of the true potential of what KH VR could be.

I just thought about this I would love to see Sora boxing, like some Taiju Tsu or something. I like seeing characters fighting without their weapons, like Xemnas at 1:04:20 and Elrena (Larxene) in CoM. I'd Like to playthrough Kingdom Hearts Being able to unequip my Keyblade. Like how you can switch Keyblades mid-fight in three, Maybe you hold the button to unequip and press for Keyblade.
