5. This just doesn't add up to me unless said person made the art.

6. It was Ven, not Roxas? Yeah, because there's such a big difference there. I'll probably get stoned for saying this, and I am aware Roxas and Ven are not the same person (yet), but I'm not really impressed with how much he resembles Roxas. In the secret ending you could at least see a definite difference. Now it just looks like Roxas in different clothes, and that annoys me. I'm sure Nomura will be pulling a mindfuck on us that somehow attempts to explain everything, but that doesn't change that I'm a bit stingy after he decided to milk the KH franchise with games we don't really need (the ones on portable), like it's a new FF7. Now commence shitstorm.

"Roxas and Ven are not the same person (yet)"

I laughed because it's so true. It's probably gonna be like ROXAS "DIED" AND TELEPORTED BACK TO VEN!!1 THE SHADOW ON THE BEACH IS AXEL!!1

oh god, PLEASE NO.

if it turns out to be another game to feed the fangirls, i will personally assassinate nomura.

[moving.livejournal.com]

I'm with you on that.

[infringe.livejournal.com]

seriously! kh2 final mix was bad enough (made it worse than the original game). i hope they like, at least bring back some dignity with kh3.

[moving.livejournal.com]

I liked the first two games, but the second game and the additions to its cast really made the fanbase go batshit crazy.

[infringe.livejournal.com]

i fell in love with kh & com. but that's about it. i think i'm not as fond of kh2 'cause the beginning was way too slow for me and axel did a complete turn-around. and oh, man. blame it on that sea salt ice cream scene. D:

[moving.livejournal.com]

I only liked and played KH2 because of the characters I'd already seen in the previous games. Anyone who played KH2 first, or just never played KH1 or CoM, will of course disagree with me.

[parametric.livejournal.com]

Not necessarily. :/ I played 1 and CoM before 2 and I still love KH2.

[moving.livejournal.com]

I was talking about those who played KH2 first and ignored CoM.

Never said I didn't love it. I definitely wouldn't have spent money on KH2:FM+ if that was the case - I actually enjoy the gameplay. But I didn't play it to see more of Axel or Roxas, and I don't think the new plots and characters are superior to the previous games', even if the graphics and overall entertainment value did increase.

[parametric.livejournal.com]

Mmm, sorry, I mistook your words then.

Personally, I love all the characters and plots, but the gameplay itself had improved enough that I tend to like playing KH2 more, aside from the looooong intro. I agree, though, that in and of itself the plot and characters aren't superior.

[held.livejournal.com]

i agree with this comment. sign me up for the assassination team.

[infringe.livejournal.com]

do you want to be the sniper or the getaway driver? ♥

[held.livejournal.com]

well, i can't drive. unless you want me to run over innocent bystanders!

[powercorrupts.livejournal.com]

They're barely different clothes at that! They just look like Nomura recycled the Twilight Town outfit and changes parts.

[moving.livejournal.com]

Now watch Terra/Ven replace Axel/Roxas just like they replaced Riku/Sora.

[burningvigor.livejournal.com]

I think you just called it.

[moving.livejournal.com]

This fandom is so predictable.

[powercorrupts.livejournal.com]

When I saw the screencaps of Terra with Ven I seriously went "oh shit not again." There are fics already for it, and no one even knows who they are yet

[aishiteru.livejournal.com]

I'd be surprised if there was a shitstorm. I completely agree with this. I honestly DID think it was Roxas for a while, until someone said "hey look at this screen of Ven" and I was like .. ohhh.

I've got a love/hate thing going with Nomura. He's turning KH into another FFVII milk-it-for-all-it's-worth sequel fest, and I hate it. I hate it a lot. The man can't even keep his own canon straight, which KHII more than amply shows. I wish he'd figure out his own plot lines before going and making like four more games.

If he can somehow salvage all this, I will bow down and worship, seriously. But I am just oh so slightly doubtful.

Re: 6

[powercorrupts.livejournal.com]

Nomura is a serial canon rapist. =( He got tired of raping FFVII canon and now he's directing his full attentions to KH. The KH fandom needs to be very afraid. If they're not lucky, they too might end up with a canon-raping gary stu popstar villain.

To me the thing that concerns me most about the KH plot is that it seems like it's modular. Like... they've got about half of a next game planned after the end of one, but they don't have any real idea where they're going in the long run. (I'd like to cite the multiple Ansems as proof of this - and now the other Xehanort. DX Name changes FOR THE LOSE)

[asdhjfbciwu3487.livejournal.com]

In the secret ending you could at least see a definite difference.

Really? I don't see it.
