Re: Media Pet Peeves

[elaminator]

I feel you. I think resentment is an unfortunate and common side effect of escort missions; about the only escort missions I've liked were ones from games like Skyrim when the character can't die and also helps out.

Could Minnie die in KH2? I think she was too badass to die, but I genuinely enjoyed that one. One of the few.

I don't think Minnie could die but there are ways to fail in KH games, I don't recall with Minnie specifically because she's so powerful it's hard to lose that mission.

In birth by sleep I think I failed an escort mission with Snow White because I wasn't paying attention and she is not strong.

Since Square Enix is milking KH for all it's worth, they should create a spinoff where you play as Minnie. Or maybe Minnie could be your cooler-than-I sidekick and you could have joint attacks.

I'm so behind with KH so I didn't play Birth by Sleep, but that sounds pretty awful. (At least make the character able to protect themselves, or have a decent amount of hit points.)

KH2 was always too easy for me. I put it on hard and the only times I ever died were with once with Xaldin and once during the final battle. And for both of those, part of that was because stuff was so easy that I never prepped with attached potions and elixirs. I just stumbled into all the boss battles and stumbled out.

Which is a shame because I kind of want to replay through KH2 again... but the original KH is always just so much more fun gameplay wise.

Kingdom Hearts 2 was easy, yea. I loved it for many reasons (I found it entertaining, liked the cast, storyline, etc), but my biggest complaint wasn't with the battles, it was with the lack of exploration. The maps in the first Kingdom Hearts felt bigger and more open.

I think the only time I failed a boss battle was with Demyx... I'm awful with timed events, so I had to do that one a few times. The only issue I had with the final battle was the damned button mashing, lmao. I hate any hardcore button mashing in games, I feel like my finger is going to fall off.

They're both good games for different reasons imo, but I think now is the time if you want to replay them. (The remix versions are out! I bought the first but haven't played it yet. Need to get the second.)

Re: Media Pet Peeves

[othellia]

OH MY GOD, YES. Alright, well, actually I thought the exactly opposite. I felt the maps in KH2 were bigger and open, but they were also a lot more stark? Like because they were bigger, the detail was stretched thinner and therefore it gave the game more of a cardboard set feeling. I didn't get the same exploratory feel in KH2 that I still get in KH. (And I think I've played through KH about three full times at this point, so way to go KH.)

Oh fuck. Yeah, I failed that one a lot too. But I never counted it as a "death" because of the whole damn timed thing. MY HP METER DIDN'T GO DOWN TO ZERO SO NYAHH.

Ugh, and I totally would except the only console systems I still have are a PS2 and Nintendo Wii. It's really hard for me to justify sitting down and spending so much time and money on games. I figure at least with TV/Movies I can crochet and eat and stuff as I watch. Part of that too is that I think this original fic of mine is finally in a stable enough form to get written/published. I want to finish it so badly... consuming other media vs writing makes me feel a bit guilty, but gaming makes me feel OVER 9000 levels of guilty.

Re: Media Pet Peeves

Well, I did feel like the maps of KH2 looked bigger, but in a superficial way. (If that makes sense, like you said about the backdrops, you can see farther but not necessarily explore it.) KH2 was a lot more linear imo.

Haha, well technically it wasn't a death! Ugh that battle frustrated me a lot.

Games are a time sink, which is one of the reasons I don't replay them as often as I'd like. If you don't have the system and have other things you should be focusing on that's reasonable. (Good luck with your book, btw!)
