So, a while back, I spotted a playthrough journal for Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix and decided to make a playthrough journal for Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories. This time around, now that I finally have a chance to play my copy of Kingdom Hearts II.5 ReMIX due to most of my projects/tests being finished, I can start my journey here for Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix.
As with the last journal, this isn't just for me. Anyone and everyone can pitch in and give out their own logs. No one has to follow the formula that I will lay out, just pop in whenever you guys feel like it and want to keep a log on where you are at thus far.
So, without further ado...
STATUS REPORT:
Player Character: Roxas
Difficulty Level: Critical Mode
Current Level: 6
Location: Digital Twilight Town
Day: Day 5
So, I have to admit I was mostly skipping the cutscenes since I had already played through vanilla II over the summer to prepare myself for this game. Anyway, I managed to get to Day 3 pretty easily in less than half an hour since the only parts that I really watched were the CG intro as well as the part with Namine.
Anyway, I level grinded over here for a little while until I reached level 6 (the awesome music definitely helped). The Twilight Thorn hits MUCH harder than I remembered this time around (though this is probably due to the fact that I was playing on Critical Mode). Those extra abilities you gain on Day 3 and damn useful.
So, after all of that, we get to Day 4 for we get to fight one of our best friends ZellHayner as well as a surprisingly competent "Vivi."
But soft! What yonder illusion breaks! "Vivi" was actually a Nobody the entire time!
After the dust up with the Nobodies, we finally get to one of the few cutscenes that I actually looked forward to: the return of everyone's favorite lovable traitor: Axel. His fight was...as pathetically easy as I remembered, but eh. It's the tutorial level, so yeah.
Anyway, after all of these shenanigans, I squared off with Setzer who was actually easier than I remembered. I even manged to get all of the orbs from him before time ran out (1 second left, mind you, but still).
So after all of that, we get to the tower, Roxas falls, Kairi talks to him by mistake because he tried to contact Namine but came across Kairi instead and "Ansem" and DiZ save the day! Also, I was glad to finally have my first Final Mix exclusive cutscene play on my TV for the first time.
Anyway, as I mentioned earlier, this is journal is meant for everyone. Feel free to type in your own experiences for this game if you want to.
