Kingdom Hearts III Pre-Release Spoiler Discussion Thread

Yeah I still want to see a source if Louis is in the Booklet. Emer94 didnt tell us where he heard from.

Well, to answer your question... After I type a few sentences, obviously, to avoid spoilers on the main tab.

It's pretty much entirely black/dark purple, with Sora having glowing red eyes. He keeps his keyblade this time around but it seems to be black too.

Sweet that's about what I expected. Thank you

The funny thing is, I legit had people losing their minds and telling me I was stupid for wanting to see the menus. I was in a massive argument the other day cause this dude kept calling names and saying I wasn't thinking because "All the KH menus look practically the same and they aren't gonna switch it up in any significant way."

And yet, here we are.

Rage Form is VERY interesting mechanically speaking

Spoiler Show

It's not forced on you like a punishment like anti-form was. It doesn't take away your keyblade, it doesn't seem to eliminate any of your options....it seems to just be a powerful form whose downside may just be you can't control when it appears. I'm guessing you can't use keyblade transformations during it to since you're technically already IN a form so that is probably another downside. But looking at those combos it seems to make up for it with the movement and range.

That menu is so totally gorgeous.

Huh. That IS very interesting! And yeah the menu is beautiful.

It's weird that people would get on you for that. They've completely avoided showing us the menus this entire time so obviously something was up, and even if there was no visual change the fact is the menus inherently tell us a lot about what mechanics and things are in the game and what aren't.

Hope the guy enjoys the game.

Louis on the instruction manual seems to be just like that gummi ship footage with the "water ruins" world.

Something said with no evidence at all.

He seems to be skipping the cutscenes, so he's going to be very, very, very confused.

Did he say that or is he just watching the cutscenes off camera?

I caught him say something like " I don't know where to go, I skipped the cutscene lol !"

Well if that film is part of the world roster we should find out as he goes through the game.

 

[Leaferian]

Okay, so. Yes, another thing. Quite interesting in fact. It has to do with the available worlds, based in that guy's playing.

Spoiler Show

He showed off the gummi ship world map thing, and I took an HD screenshot. Based on what I can see, Twilight Town does appear to be on the map and it sure looks selectable.

How is Twilight Town being selectable interesting again? If anything it makes me worried that the 4chan leak is actually real.

Regarding Critical Mode:

Apparently it's not selectable at the start...

Yeah I just saw that myself. I really like the look for

the world planets. Corona's even has the tower with Rap's hair coming from it

Because I'm interested lmfao. If Yen Sid's tower was a separate world, which I didn't see on the map for the record, then Sora going to get his KH3 clothes wouldn't have granted access to Twilight Town necessarily. Since Yen Sid's Tower has its own world logo, some believed we wouldn't visit proper Twilight Town till later in the story. I fond it interesting that doesn't seem to be the case. I'm also super glad we don't get blocked off from it right after we leave like KH2 lol.

Not entirely true. The leak had Tangled after Monsters Inc and Frozen

 

[Zettaflare]

He just posted part of the opening and extended theme song.

Spoiler Show

after Sora's speech the song officially starts with Xehanort staring at the sky. It shows Ventus falling to Destiny Islands to symbolize joining Sora's heart. After Ansem's piece is set Sora floats through the board and it shifts to Roxas

Wait a sec. Time out.

Spoiler Show

There's no CoM portion? What's the deal with that?

 

[Leaferian]

Second part was posted just now. Won't mention what it consists of.

 

[Insomniac]

Spoiler Show

Oddly enough, Namine isn’t shown at the end with the group pose either. They chose to neglect some story aspects in the intro for sure.

You could probably consider the Sora vs. Marluxia poortion a tribute to CoM.
