Honest question... Why do you lot care so much about Final Fantasy characters in a Kingdom Hearts game? Seriously, I need to know... Am I missing something? These characters are not vital in the story and most people new to the game would not know who they are, why is their inclusion important? I'm not saying this to be quarrelsome, I just don't get it... At all. I need someone to explain it to me.
I never watched any of the Disney movies featured in Kingdom Hearts besides The Nightmare before Christmas and Pirates. As more of a gamer than a Disney fan growing up I didn't care at all about the worlds but really got into the Final Fantasy series because of their inclusion. I'd rather they take all the Disney out before they take all the Final Fantasy out. The best thing about these games are that they are the best of both worlds. There's Square reps, Disney reps and the OCs - who I'd say are right in the middle.
