IGN , you have no right to talk about kingdom hearts , at all , especially after your kingdom hearts 2 review

[@skybattle1184]

You tell ‘em bud they all of a sudden kingdom hearts fans🤣

[@bobafett6174]

thank you you cant jump on board now that the game is relevant in the media again

[@Samurai-no4wu]

Kingdom hearts will not tell that 70% of its gameplay is all a trick. They make you think it's easy and then the difficulty ramps to obsurd levels at the end with multiple bosses that get increasinly stronger and now you're playing dark souls. Kingdom hearts 1 is the hardest with the checkpoints being laid out hella far

[@xSavedSoulx]

Kingdom Souls

[@feverdream6826]

honestly as an avid souls fan, ts is harder than dark souls

[@Clifton7191]

Final Mix was literally the best one new dialogue, new cutscenes, new weapons and ability and new secret boss fights they did the same thing with Persona 5 royal

[@0twaster0i02]

important for the initial weapon choice in the awakening. As a first choice, only the Rod(staff) will allow you to go up to 10MP once you're leveled up enough. MP is a stat that can't be increased in any other way so it's arguably the most important. Choosing the shield/sword first would result in 2 less MP by the endgame, 8MP instead of 10MP.

[@DAZ1337]

But two less item slots.

[@0twaster0i02]

@@DAZ1337 IMO, those aren't as important as that only means that you can equip 2 less potions/elixirs/ethers which aren't nearly as important.

[@blutomindpretzel1735]

as great as Final Mix was, the final mix for KHII was absolutely glorious. First game is still the best of the bunch though

[@TYfariguy]

Anyone else got lost in *MONSTRO* first time around 🙋🏾‍♂️ that damn whale😅

[@yveltal1071]

The trick for monstro is to just go in the door that is flashing green. That always takes you the right way

[@dekuvisuals9847]

One of thee greatest games ever created

[@juancena6909]

4:35 & 5:04 Absolutely wrong. The game did tell you to customise shortcuts for magic and equip abilities from the menu after you obtained fire and dodge roll from Donald and Goofy.

[@Snickritz]

They mustve been mashing through the dialogue.

[@coreyboyd28]

The fact this video is coming out over a decade since Final Mix came is really strange....

[@TheRealFenwick]

The first 2 games in the main series are amazing

[@Calypso694]

Remember people IGN gave Prey 2017 a 4 even though the bug they complained about wasn’t in final release and that score is still there.

[@IGN]

Not sure how this relates to Kingdom Hearts, but what you typed there is factually incorrect. The game-breaking bug reported in the initial review was present in the final release version of Prey. The reviewer flagged it to the development team but it didn't get patched until after release and after the review was posted. The IGN reviewer revisited the game when it was patched and rated it an 8/10. Saying that "the score is still there" is nonsense. The updated review is plainly visible on IGN.

Okay Riku

Do not bother healing donald and goofy like they say in this video. They revieve on their own. And they are pretty useless anyway.

Keep console exclusives exclusive to consoles. Pc is a dying gaming platform.

[@Imsleepybro]

No, it's not haha. Final Fantasy is next

[@Amfneey]

Not even close. More people are actually switching to PC because they realize that in all reality console gaming is inferior in pretty much every way, besides physical games. That's the only upside to console gaming.

[@ChrisHughes89]

What are you smoking brev? Lmao😂

[@tommyevanspk]

Someone can’t afford a pc😂😂

How exactly is PC a dying Gaming platform?
