MrDylanHM it’s definitely a way to sell to the maximum amount of fans possible. Excuses to have Cloud, Sephiroth, Aerith, FF8, Disney, and so many other characters that the ads will show as having a huge presence (they did on the first one at least), and then you realize they basically are minor characters, one time boss battles, and basically just to essentially name drop. That said, I still love this and will keep playing and buying. I like that it usually doesn’t take itself so seriously unless you do a breakdown like this. ‘Contrivance Tornado,’ is perfect though.

I was a junior in high school when KH2 came out. I graduated high school, went to college, did 6 years in the military, started a career, got married, and had a child. I'm almost 30 and I still haven't played KH3. At this rate, if they ever do make a KH4, my grand kids will be lucky if they get to play it.

[@KlausiboyZ]

It has been stated that Kingdom Hearts 3 will be the last of what they call "The Xehanort Saga", and that they do indeed intend to make more games in the series beyond this saga. So there will be another game, but I doubt it will be called kingdom hearts 4, since to many would expect it to be a continuation of the Xehanort saga

[@whattheheckification]

klausiboy kristensen Why would anyone expect a game called kingdom hearts 4 to follow the xehanort saga? The creators have already stated that Sora will remain the main character of kingdom hearts after kh3. So it makes sense to continue the numerical titles.

[@KlausiboyZ]

Well, I just figured, that since Kingdom hearts 1-3 had covered the Xehanort saga, they might want to kinda make a reset on the titling or something like that. Basically, Square has been so all over the place with their titles, that I just half expect them to start naming their games like "Kingdom Hearts, A new light saga part 1: Next frontier" or some crazy stuff like that xD I honestly feel like it's misleading in the first place to have numerical naming for the Kingdom hearts games in the first place, since a lot of softcore fans will guess that the only games that matter are the main titles, which couldn't be further from the truth, so it might be wishful thinking, but I hope they drop the numerical naming

[@whattheheckification]

klausiboy kristensen I hope they don’t drop the numerical naming, unless sora stops being the main character at some point.

Considering where Kingdom Hearts the original starts you really gotta wonder how much of this story was planned out and how much was hastily thrown together and hoped would make sense eventually

[@alejandroserrano7755]

yeah, it seems forced. Prequels are usually less complicated and used to explain.

[@tyriwilliams1939]

Based on how Mickey didn’t recognize Terra when the met up in the lab after he was possessed, I’m going to go with the assumption they just threw a lot of stuff together and hoped for the best

[@Purplepenguinguy]

Very little was planned out before clearly. Even post KH2 it's been game by game story writing. Gotta give Birth By Sleep credit though, it's a really solid prequel to KH1,2,and sorta Chain of memories, and it is a total retconn. KH1 and 2 weren't originally written with much space for a prequel story, and the game actually tells a compelling story that explains some things about KH1 and 2 to those who have paid attention the the overarching story.

[@Junosensei]

The way I see it, it was probably written in three or more waves. 1) Kingdom Hearts is its own story, written with an open-ended conclusion, but no exact direction yet. 2) Chain of Memories was written with KHII in mind for sure, since it introduced the first seen members of Organization XIII. Kingdom Hearts II concludes itself, with hints of a future. 3) With little hope for a KHIII anytime soon, three games were announced in close proximity, but far apart in release: 358/2 Days, Birth By Sleep, and Coded (eventually Re:Coded for the West). These were obviously written together, but some MAJOR hints in BBS indicate to me that the plot twists in Dream Drop Distance were conceived ahead of time: Braig's and Isa's eyes are brown and blue respectively in BBS, but after Terra wipes out one of his eyes, Braig appears again... with gold eyes. Isa (or rather, Saix) has gold eyes in KHII, meaning the choice to give his BBS self blue eyes had to be consciously hinting the same twist. ???) I don't know if KHIII is still part of wave 3 or if it's in a post-wave 3 era of storytelling. Wave 3 seems to be about setting up the premise of KHIII, but the plot of KHIII may have been written and developed after this setup was finished, starting a potential wave 4. Either way, whatever KHIII is, we know that 2.8's BBS side story with Aqua (BBS 0.2) was originally supposed to be the intro to KHIII, so it probably belongs to whatever wave KHIII is in. But that's just how I see it. A lot of each game is likely written as it goes (like most stories), but you can at least tell that most of the major plot elements and twists after KHII were planned ahead to a significant extent.

Oh, and a Secret Ending that completely fucked the lore till BBS. KH2 is my favorite game in the franchise but they really started to mess things up then. The story, as interesting and emotional that it’s been, snowballed into this convoluted and disastrous mess by the finale. It honestly killed a lot of hype I had for KH3, and I’ve been playing this franchise since the beginning. Kingdom Hearts 1 was simple: Sora was the chosen wielder of the keyblade, no one having 738373 identities, no time travel, none of that. Just a simple story of a kid trying to find his friends and save some worlds from the Heartless. Why did they have to go and fuck that all up?

In case you haven't watched it: Yen Sid has been around since 1940 in Fantasia. His name was revealed in the introductory clip before the actual sequence he's in, and I think they even say it's "Disney" backward in that, but It's been a WHILE since I've watched Fantasia, so don't quote me on that. Anyway, the sequence "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" is where he comes from. He's the sorcerer in question, and Mickey is his apprentice. That's why his hat MAY look familiar(all the art and merch of Mickey in the red robe and signature blue, moon-and-star-patterned hat). That's also why they have that connection in Kingdom Hearts. It's just for different reasons.

[@maddie9602]

Aqua, Terra, and Ventus's hearts are linked. Vanitas is Ventus, but not really. Ventus' heart later took refuge in Sora, who is also Roxas and Xion, and linked to Kairi who is also Namine. DiZ is really Ansem, but not the same Ansem who's also Xehanort who is also Xemnas. Then there are the Data versions of everyone. Riku's heart is linked to Sora's, as is Axel's who is also Lea. Xigbar is also Braig and became Xehanort. Oh, and Maleficent also likes to float around and pretend that she's the villain, even though she's totally not. Not convoluted AT ALL. Although it is easier if you keep in mind, as Vaugn Monger's friend said, "Everyone is either Xehanort, or inside Sora's heart," which is actually a pretty accurate summary.

[@Flotsome]

Really great but listed some missed points that are fairly important. -When Ventus and Vanitas merge Ventus and Vanitas have a battle within their own heart. Ventus defeats Vanitas by shatering the X-Blade since it was made from both of them Ventus essentially sacrificed himself to take him out. This act saves Aqua and Mickey and what lead him to a comatosed state -After Terra becomes possessed a piece of his will is salvaged inside his armour bringing it to life as *"Lingering Will"* this form is able to defeat Xehanort possessing Terra's body allowing Terra's heart to gian some ground and weaken Xehanort, partly why hes been dormant all this time. To this date Lingering Will is still wondering and no one knows where it is. -Aqua leaves Ventus's body in their home world *"Land of Departure"* which is transformed into *"Castle Oblivion"* a twisted Labyrinth with the purpose to protect Land of Departure's secrets and now Vantus's body. -Aqua confronts Xehanort possessing Terra's body and does battle, Terra's previous efforts have left Xehanort weakened as Xehanort appears confused and disorientated. Terra is able to briefly take back control to perform a suicide attack which plunges him and Xehanort into darkness, but Aqua chases Terra-Xehanort and sends him back while leaving herself trapped in the darkness. Terra-Xehanort no longer evil or a threat atm is discovered by Ansem the Wise who helps him and eventually makes him one of his many students. -After Sora beats Riku possessed by Ansem Riku is able to regain control and hold back Ansem letting Sora and Kairi escape but Riku is banished to the Realm of Darkness afterward which is how he appeared on the other side of the door to darkness. -When in Castle Oblivion Riku and Sora encounter and fight various members of the organization and *Riku Replica"* a dark counterpart of Riku created to trick Sora as part of the routine to manipulate his memories and to tempt riku to fall back into darkness and be a useful tool to them. Riku's own darkness resurfaces to take the shape of Heartless Ansem who he battles and eventually defeats to gain control of his own Dark Powers. -Its worth noting that Roxas is pretty strong once Xion is no longer siphoning his strength as he is able to wield two keyblades (Sora & Ventus's) and overpower Riku and Sora on separate occasions -In KH2 Riku disguised as a cloaked figure and doesn't meet up with Sora till much later because hes ashamed of himself as hes taken on Ansem's form and using Darkness but hes been leaving clues and a trail on how to reach Organization XIII's stronghold.

Vanitas took on Sora's appearance because when Ventus's heart spit and Sora healed Ventus he supplemented the darkness that was ripped from his heart allowing him to heal. Vanitas and Ventus are connected so Vanitas inherited that appearance. Roxas Sora's nobody looks like Ventus because of how much Ventus has unknowingly had an influence on Sora (its what essentially enabled him to wield a keyblade in the first place).

He's essentially Voldemort if Voldemort was able to master time travel and atcually use it to his advantage to place various Horcruxes throughout time, making it impossible for Harry to destroy any of them by the time the final battle hits.
