Kingdom Hearts 3: Reverse/Rebirth

[@samflood5631]

There should have been a Kingdom Hearts 2 Reverse/Rebirth where you play as Riku. That final boss fight with Xemnas wasn’t enough for me to play as Riku, same goes for the prologue where you play as Roxas before he merges with Sora to help wake him up from his one year coma.

[@dawsensmith360]

@@samflood5631KH2 has the Nobody May Cry mod for PCSX2 on PC now. Which is absolutely INCREDIBLE.

[@Deoxys_Used_Mimic]

The reason why you don’t get a Monster Riku is because Riku is his own Monster.

[@dustin202]

Yeah

[@HappleProductions]

Riku poses for a selfie. Axel: "JUST STOP!"

[@darienb1127]

Man, I was expecting this to just be just a port of Riku from Re:Mind, but they went above and beyond with it! They added new forms and everything, that's so cool!

[@TheeGlobFather]

while watching this, i realized something. in my playthroughs of this game, i almost never used the summons aside from when i first got them in my first playthrough.

[@azureflair3175]

15:41 i would have died laughing if Riku 2 T-posed here homie has too much power

[@revan8795]

Alternate universe where the original Riku rep didn’t fade out lol.

[@givo8637]

This is the timeline where riku got the keyblade in kh1

[@roccosmos1913]

riku fights xemnas riku slides into the scene

[@dustin202]

Would have been cool if they replaced original riku with sora. Although I suppose you could say that the second riku is repliku with a Body

[@lpfan4491]

KH3 is always kinda broken, but that dark mirage staff is just absolutely bananas. I love it.

[@darienb1127]

I feel like this could be the alternate universe where Riku didn't jump into the Darkness in KH1. He would have got the keyblade instead.

[@somerandomacount]

Fun facts: This mod isnt just a universe where sora and riku have been swapped, as they LITERALLY got swapped somewhere before the start of the game the only problem: the other riku is still here for some reason

[@rikukeyblademaster1575]

Here's to hoping Rick gets his own title centered around him for once, I'd like to see what they do with it and I hope they actually make it worth it instead of just being a short game for crying out loud because each time we went into the dark realm that's really all I wanted to do was play as him to be honest because I knew some of the world's in Kingdom hearts 3 were going to be a little bit underwhelming.

[@rikukeyblademaster1575]

@Sky Flame Tendou Yeah they could’ve done something with that there but nope.

[@theparagon1464]

I love at the last part when Riku shoots his keyblade beam it goes in the complete wrong direction xD

[@Zyuusouken]

"He has 360 guard!" Me: ITS CALLED BARRIER!

[@LaCazaLP]

I just finished this mod lmao. Absolut blast.

[@fink_rat]

24:25 This mod made me learn that the beam really does come from the keyblade. You can see it is no where near Xehanort due to how Riku is stanced up

[@StillND]

Nomura needs to hire some of these modders.

[@KevX36]

My head cannon is thst somehow riku did something to send himself back in time in a way that he was perceived as sora in order to find out what happened to him

[@infernape100]

riku running to the ansem xehanort young xehanort fight, heelies were used to slide

[@leahcim6941]

oh my god that title screen art is amazing

[@eereree]

They needed to switch Riku’s and Sora’s sprites, tbh-

[@andreashajidimitri8690]

Finaly kh3 gets the love it diserves kh2 mods stand no chance now(aside from terra becoming elmo)

[@randallmart92]

This is why i need a gaming Pc right now...these mods for all my favorite series are insane.

[@poopuswoopus35]

I felt the same way but I'm too lazy to install them now that I have a gaming PC lmao

[@VitorKujo2410]

they really should just replace the story riku for sora, then im gonna see sora and mickey in the realm of darkness, real.

[@devonm042690]

Did he use all the Keyblades and their forms in the full stream? Some of the Formchanges were renamed, and at least in this highlight reel he didn't bring that up. He certainly didn't call the Formchanges by their new names. Counter Shield was renamed to Thunderstorm, Hyper Hammer to Shadow Bringer, and Drill Claw to Umbral Claw. Double Arrowguns wasn't renamed, but that Formchange seems like a work-in-progress anyway. Mystic Staff wasn't renamed either. Pretty sure no others were shown in the highlights. Seems like once he got Ever After he steamrolled the rest of the game with that buffed-to-hell-and-back Mystic Staff.

[@rikukeyblademaster1575]

I like your headphones too especially the little ears at the top :-)

[@joshuajones4284]

that riku mod looks fun

[@Marvin-zs1oo]

I love that title screen

[@EddiePReacts]

Riku Couldve been in the NBA

[@ZKtheMAN]

Dude's like fuckin _Vergil._

[@vibesmagma8451]

I downloaded this mod and right as I was about to play it i see this was uploaded, good timing

[@meevil24]

Gotta love the new title screen

[@luckyinugirl1816]

Riku looks so freaking awesome 😊

[@BullShitTron]

I've been playing the Xion version, it's fantastic.

[@apathy2454]

RIKU & NAMINE on the title screen 🥺🥺🥺

[@theofficialchannelofoffici7962]

Never been this early for anything since i was the first to preorder slime rancher on ps4

[@julianmuscat9495]

People have to use mods to play as Riku. Just shows how much Square rushed making the game. (Besides a couple of fight scenes)

[@TheSCPStudio]

Lol? Just because it doesn’t have something you want doesn’t mean it was rushed in any way shape or form and that’s, quite frankly, moronic logic.

[@julianmuscat9495]

@@TheSCPStudio It's a PS4 game. The cutscenes were longer than the gameplay. The DLC was better than the main game. Riku is a huge character in the series, only playing him twice in the main game for 2 fight scenes was a joke. He should've been a proper playable character in atleast some parts of the game. Again, it's a PS4 game ffs. Where's the intuition?

[@moisesmartinezmorales5885]

I don't see how this game was rushed like yeah riku is barely playable but that doesn't means its rushed it simply means there wasn't that much of an intention to make him playable as for the dlc being better than the main story that also is not an example of the game being rushed its just an example about bad writing vs good writing

[@TimothyGod]

​@@julianmuscat9495its the opposite, hes a fully playable character, just not made into more of a section for 1 reasom or another. The modders didn't "make" a new character. Don't give them THAT much credit

[@That1Smug]

Sora at the begining: I’m half Me riku

[@stephenfiler3204]

This is a great mod. Very impressive.

[@mikashi1593]

Yep. We have another tall characters who wall running speed like Sanic

[@TheAnimatedGamer]

I highly suggest trying re style and improved movement next

[@Quintessence4444]

I'm not Sora, i'm Riku. Why does everyone keep calling me Sora?

[@kobayashitoruktch5807]

4:34 I think is look like Sonic Shadow Shotlocck .

[@FFKING1140]

I got that mod, but none of the mods worked for me when I tried to play them, I had a bunch of keyblade replacers and form replacers to go with it

[@TainaElisabeth]

mods conflicting with each other? just try one at a time

[@kenjikune2565]

The mod force changes a couple keyblades & some formchanges simply don't work at all, like Wheel of Fate. Reach out more to the Nexus community, people have been generally helpful.

[@joshuamoore3749]

Is Riku considered a mystic, guardian or warrior?

[@rikukeyblademaster1575]

Some new I might be able to clear it up for you, just so there's no worries or questions I'm a 27 year old girl who was born with a multitude of disabilities such as hydrocephalus and LMC as well as multiple sclerosis and I've been a huge Kingdom hearts fan ever since I was little but I actually wasn't really allowed to get into it until I was about 8th grade because let's just say that my mom's first husband liked to stifle my imagination when I was a kid and it was irritating. But when it came to my four younger brothers he had no problem with theirs which is completely stupid and it made literally no sense into this day I still can't figure out why. That is until I came up with a name for a dog that we ended up getting a couple years shortly after when I was about 7 years old but regardless while my brother has got to play video games I got stuck reading books and it was totally lame. So finally when I

U have the First version of this mod or the second update One?

2:17 I'm sorry don't you play Kh2 all the time? You don't know the lore?

[@nahshontallent4168]

I was coming here to say that! Yeah what's up with people who play these story-centric games and not know the lore? Seems kinda dumb ya know.

[@allohtoffbaqphat4547]

@@nahshontallent4168 Yeh a little dumb, yeh? I get playing Kh2 cuz it's just fun to play, which it is, but you'd think someone who's got 20 plus videos of Kh2 runs would at least once have played the main story normally, no? Like how did dude even get into Kh2 in the first place to experience the fun gameplay? At least for me, it took me til around the end of my second playthrough to discover all the fun shit, did he just hear how good the randomized game was for this and start playing like that?

Not until the PS5 firmware is broken open to allowed homebrew/modding. So probably not anytime soon.

google the KH3 Pc Specs?

I'm running this on a $200 Lenovo laptop with over 100 mods at the moment, just turn down the resolution & lock in to 60 fps.

Yeah I wasn't even supposed to live past the age of two years old with hydrocephalus and LMC in fact they only gave my mom 5 minutes to decide whether to keep me or abort me she had me when she was about 17 and unfortunately they did a five to one vote like my life was treated like a prize to be one they treated my existence like a game and it was awful! But thank goodness the one vote was the team captain Dr Hutchinson in Iowa City because if not I wouldn't have got to meet awesome people like you :-)
