Is it finally time to appreciate Ansem SOD's performances in this game? Like holy cow

Like his "Nononono don't make another step" to Pence in a perfect "Dang kid, get off my Mansion" tone

OR HIS FLIPPIN FINGER MOTION WHEN HE SAYS "YOU'RE WISE" TO ANSEM THE WISE
He made a joke AND did the finger gun

I'm seriously starting to doubt he's a Heartless at all
That shit was so good

My feelings on that first scene has just went back to loving it.

He really deserves more screentime.

This might be a good spot to find some praises!

I just beat the game.
Perhaps I'll have more thoughts later. But for now....
Remember when I was really sad because I kept assuming the final boss would be confronted all alone? And I was always whining and lamenting how much I hate fighting alone in this series, and how much I wish I got to fight all of KH1's final boss with Donald and Goofy at my side? Or KH2, having to put up with Riku while D&G only get to hang with you for the first part of the battle?
KH3's final battle says phooey on that.

And I was in tears throughout the entire playthrough of the battle against Xehanort. It was literally my ultimate dream KH final battle. A dream of which I long assumed would only come true if I wrote stupid fanfics about it.

Woah! I had NO idea Olympus is restored after you beat it! I only first came back there today, after beating the final boss! I assume this happens after you merely finish the chapter rather than the whole game, but either way, wow! That's pretty sweet! I assumed coming back it'd still be in flames and such! And hey, some kid wants golden statues or something. Sure, whatever kid, I'll get right on that.

Remember that bit in BBS where Donald and Goofy are volunteering themselves to go help a stranded Mickey, and Yen Sid dismisses them with that "may not be adequate" nonsense?
I didn't realize until now, that it's hilarious he (along with Riku and Mickey) dismisses Sora's volunteering to help save Aqua pretty much the same way.
Yeah, uh, Riku and Mickey sure did a great job on that, didn't they?
And who was it that ultimately gave Xehanort a much-needed pummeling?

This sounds like griping, but I actually feel quite the opposite. It really makes KH3 out to be a bit of an 'underdog' narrative, with everyone condescendingly dismissing our trio before they ultimately turn out to be the most capable. I was worried KH3 would do a "Sora is the chosen messiah and will save us all", but it turns out, KH3 did precisely the opposite throughout! I dig it.

I can't stop laughing HAHAHA

 

[kaseykockroach]

I love how most of the special attacks or mini-games in KH3 revolve around your teammates. I felt like too much of KH2 pandered to you being on your own.

 

[Perkilator]

The Unversed were a good enemy pick for Monsters Inc.

 

[kaseykockroach]

I cannot get enough of sliding on Goofy's shield. I'm sad there's only three worlds where you can do such (Olympus, Arendelle and The Caribbean)! I think these segments are a blast! Every time I play one, the SM64 slide music plays in my head. I'm not even trying to find treasures in Arendelle, I'm just sliding here for the fun of it!

KH3's final boss is my favorite, as far as numbered titles' final bosses go, but if there's one change I'd make, it's having a segment where you with D&G slide on the shield to dodge Xehanort's attacks as he distorts the world around like earlier.

 

[FudgemintGuardian]

I love that KH3 remembers Jiminy exists.

 

[kaseykockroach]

Does it amount to having even more screentime than Chain of Memories, or is CoM still the king of cricketness?

 

[Alpha Baymax]

Dark Riku referencing Merlin in San Fransokyo ("Unlike a certain wizard you know") acknowledges that Merlin's time travel magic is a viable loophole that doesn't screw with time travel rules.

 

[Askelon]

The Skoll boss fight, from the design to the battle it is one enjoyable moment. I really like the part where he basically "swallow" the sun, that's a nice touch.

 

[kaseykockroach]

You know what I love? In KH2? Yes, here we go, a moment I love in KH2. You won't witness me say that often!
When Goofy's telling Beast "That's right! They were gonna make you into a Heartless! That way they could get that Nobody of yers and have control over it!" and Sora just makes the goshdamn funniest pose I've ever seen in my life.
I can't describe the pose Sora makes in that bit. You all remember that, right?
It's like Sora's saying "Preach it, brother Goof!".

This. This so much. It was everything I wanted and actually even more. I still can't believe how awesome it was.

I see this thread's kicked the bucket in favor of the Nitpicks thread.
I like that the games have different battle music for each world and am baffled that's not the norm for other RPG's.

- I love that the hunt for the Lich is similar to going through the portals in End of the World.

- I love that Nort Repliku’s dialogue in San Fransokyo (I believe it’s the scene where he reveals Dark Baymax) is so reminiscent to Riku's dialogue in the Monstro scenes from KH1. I wish GameFAQs had a Game Script up for KH3 for me to compare the two.

- I love that the minigames are actually fun in this game. I like the flan, love the dancing / sledding, the courses in San Fransokyo are okay, too. Verum Rex is probably my least favorite for taking so long. Either way, nothing’s awful like many are in BbS or KH2, and I don’t feel like I’m only doing them to tick off a box in Jiminy's journal.

- I like that the Heartless boss for Arendelle is inspired by Norse mythology.

- I love the hill where you slide through flowers in Corona.

- I’m glad that all the Darknesses get a farewell scene when they’re defeated and they’re all well-written, imo. I think the only scene I was disappointed with was Young Xehanort’s because it was more about setting up the ending with Sora disappearing rather than being a resolution to the character himself.

- The FF-inspired Gummi ships are cute. I love flying around in the Airship.

- I’m happy that the Sorcerer and Berserker appear as super-enemies in the battlegates. I only wish they’d had Nobodies for all KH2’s XIII in the game.

- I like that when you go back to the worlds to farm for synthesis materials, level up, or whatever, you sometimes get dialogue from the characters about what happened. Like when you go past the spot where you knocked the Rock Titan down the mountain, Donald and Goofy bring it up and Hercules is shocked that they managed to do that (not having known about it before).

- Donald and Goofy coming up behind Sora after Kairi’s killed and picking him up was really sweet. SDG are definitely the best trio and I’m glad they got better dialogue.

 

[Zettaflare]

I like that Donald and Goofy didn't get keyblades in KH3. I was somewhat expecting it since there were times in the game were they pointed out they lacked them.

 

[FudgemintGuardian]

Rapunzel in awe of everything during her little detours is adorable as FRICK!

Not a single character gained one and that feels great! Please keep it that way Nomura! ;A;

 

[kaseykockroach]

I just want to declare that I love Toy Box’s battle music so much.
In general, I think KH3 has my favorite level themes for Disney worlds. Pretty much every Disney world tune gets stuck in my head. I gather I’m in the minority, but Carribean’s battle music is SO much better to me than just using “He’s a Pirate” again.
