It's Here At Last

[Sakide]

Ohh yass... Finally my HD II.5 ReMIX + 358/2 Days + Re:coded import arrived. Time to continue playing.
Two months waiting I have been. :3

(Just look at this beauty, would you?)
1.5 ReMIX is from earlier.
Now the series is complete! (At least until HD II.8 Final Chapter Prologue is released.)

... Now, what should I start with? ._.
Already played the 1.5 ReMIX minus the 358/2 Days cutscenes.

Start with 1.5 and work your way through~

358/2 Days before or after Kingdom Hearts II​?

 

[BufferAqua]

358/2 Days before or after Kingdom Hearts II​?

I say before.

 

[FudgemintGuardian]

358/2 Days before or after Kingdom Hearts II​?

After. Days contains KHII spoilers. (The games work best in order of release due to each game giving spoilers of the previous ones.)

 

[BlackOsprey]

It kind of depends. If you're playing completely blind to the story, I'd recommend playing II, then Days, for the sake of spoilers. (Thing is, after ten years, most of those twists and spoilers have become common knowledge, so make of that as you will.) If you already know II's plot, then I'd do Days first.

You definitely need to know KH1's and CoM's stories before getting into Days, though. Otherwise, you will be completely lost.

So, what would you play first if the first thing you saw about Kingdom Hearts is the ending of Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, and then years later you played through Kingdom Hearts Final Mix and Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories?

Cuz that's what kinda happened... lol

I used to watch a friend of mine play Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, and I also saw the ending, at least part of it... I don't know what Xion is supposed to be exactly, only that she turns into some ugly creature in the end... Then Riku apparently turns into Ansem and kills Roxas or something. Now I recently decided I had to play this for myself, so I finished the first two games of the 1.5 ReMIX.

So, with this in mind, which should I play next? 358/2 Days or II?

Intended order, KHII. only scrubs say 358 first. that's like that bullshit with star wars, 451236. stupid

Too bad, I don't watch Star Wars. I'm no scrub.

But it seems that the intent is that newcomers who play the ReMIXes actually play, or at least watch, 358/2 Days before II​.

 

[Sakide]

Never mind, just finished 358/2 Days. lel

Starting with Kingdom Hearts II in two weeks. ಥ‿ಥ
