Hey everyone,
since Covid I played all KH titels and want to share my thoughts. And of course, I'm playing Union X and Dark Road. I grow up with Kingdom Hearts since 2002 but since DDD, Kingdom Hearts felt wrong and first I don't know why. After KH3 launch many of my friends were disappointed, in the first moment me too. After all the patches and ReMind, gameplay wise it's for me now the best KH titel. Maybe you all know Kazushige Nojima or Daisuke Watanabe, they are scenario writer of many popular JRPG' like FFVII, FFX, KH1, KH2, FFXII, FFXIII, Original FFversusXIII. We know KH that DDD and KH3 was written by Nomura and Masaru Oka and after I played all the games again I noticed something.
KH1 story is amazing! How the Villains work together, the rivalry of Sora and Riku, the childish love of Sora and Kairi, the unique story, the mystery of the Keyblade, the mix between FF and Disney Character and they are all lovely. It's really great written for me. KH2, ReCoM, Days and BBS are great. In all this titles have Kazushige Nojima or Daisuke Watanabe a writer position. The writing is not perfect, like KH1 Deus ex moment with Kairi and Sora or KH2 when Kairi got her Keyblade but they are all well written and fun to play. KH2 has strong moments like KH1, like Roxas and Axels last talk or the ending with Sora and Riku where they admire each other. BBS have with Blank Points the best secret ending ever. And because of all the great writing I love many characters.
Sora, Aqua and Riku where my favorites. but since DDD... ohh boy. Riku is no more the cool guy who walks his own path, Aqua got tearful and weak and no one respects Sora. I know the situation of Kairi is worse. King Mickey and Yen Sid are one of the worst characters, they literally do nothing. One moment what pisses me really of is, is the moment when Riku and Mickey are in KH3 in the realm of darkness and when Mickey said Aqua is like Sora. The moment when Riku frightened is a complete disrespect and shows, that the writers forgot the ending of KH2 where Sora and Riku talk. Since KH1 Sora, Donald, Goofy deafeated everyone, beside Xemnas, that was a cool Riku and Sora moment, my favorite final boss in the series. And what they say to Sora, he is too weak! Sora, recuse everyone, makes a new timeline, the other fails in every task they have to do and no one respects Sora. He NeEdS tHe PoWeR oF wAkEnInG. He does literally anything. Story wise DDD and KH3 damaged the series. it has too many retcons, plot holes, weird and bad character writing.
I really hope for Phase 2 that one of the old writers comes back, when Kingdom Hearts was really special with great characters and an amazing story. Kazushige Nojima worked on FFversusXIII, maybe after the secret ending of ReMind and MoM he will help out Nomura. I really hope so. What are your thoughts? How do you like the story? Are you satisfied with the current sate of the series?
I wish everyone a Merry Christmas
