well, folks, we're almost there.

Time to dust off the cobwebs and shake the ol' place around, I'd wager.

So, in the spirit of kicking off conversation, a question:


What are you most hoping for from Kingdom Hearts 3? Big or small, doesn't matter, as long as you really would like it.

For me?

In all honesty, I feel like the trailer glimpses have actually given me more or less what I'd want -- Vanitas is running around, the last trailer suggests something may happen with Terra/Lingering Will, and most important of all, looks like my stubbornness for a decade-plus over Riku II/Riku Replica bore fruit. (muahahahaha.)

Whatever else comes out of KH3, and I expect to be both likely entertained and probably ranting because I'm ornery like that, I've got what I came for.

that bloody box will still be the death of me, though.

Man, I'm so hyped for this game in general. Lingering Will! Xion's on the box art at least so she's probably in the game! Riku Replica! Ienzo!

I'm really hoping we get to Save All My Children, including my awful son who's older than me (Even). I'm very stressed that it looks like he may have been Norted - I just want Apprentices redemption stuff! mutter mutter gonna have to write it myself mutter

Also, PLAYABLE KAIRI OR WE RIOT.

I'm extremely irked about Even -- and a number of other bodies -- personally, not the least of reasons being that it all seems to be undermining the claim in DDD that so many of the Org were actually unsuitable for Xehanort's plan to begin with.

But Nomura and consist writing haven't been a thing so far, so welp ~

[cygna_hime]

Nomura and plot consistency...

Yeah, I was really enjoying the concept that Xehanort went to all that trouble and it turned out like two of his Org guys were suitable, because people with strong wills and senses of identity are harder to Nort. But I guess he got them all after all...

My dearest, secretest hope is that there's just a subplot with Even, Demyx (Emyd?), and Ienzo pretending to have been Norted for Sneak Purposes. Let my terrible children be redeemed!!

Man, I would love playable Kairi, but I'm not going to get my hopes up. From the trailers, it looks like the main seven are in three groups throughout the game (Sora/Donald/Goofy, Riku/Mickey, Kairi/Lea) and only meet up at the end. So not many opportunities for Kairi or Riku to be playable at all.

[cygna_hime]

I'm hoping there's at least a chunk - Kairi would be great for a tutorial level, if nothing else - where we can play as non-Sora people. Integrate their plot lines with gameplay rather than just cutscenes, and all that. I have been waiting for Kairi to at least be a bonus party member for fifteen years.

Agreed so much, at least one Kairi level, even if it isn't the whole thing, would be so great lol.
