So hold on, if all these worlds are lost in sleep then how did Traverse Town get there? Did it just sort of happen to go there after most of the worlds were restored in KH1?
Considering it was a refugee world, after the inhabitants returned to their home worlds, it probably disappeared.
Still, one thing I'm curious about:
[*]All the Disney worlds appearing wil be new, and there will be new areas in existing worlds.
Existing WORLDS.
Existing non-Disney worlds besides Traverse Town include:
- Destiny Islands
- Radiant Garden
- Twilight Town
- Land of Departure/Castle Oblivion
- End of the World
- The World that Never Was
- Keyblade Graveyard
Destiny Islands is almost confirmed based on that quick cutscene, but I'm hesitant to say it's playable. Maybe we could finally go on the mainland? But what I don't understand is why DI appears when it is not in a state of sleep. Maybe, as I was talking about earlier, it's more like there's a dream world version of each world, and by unlocking their keyhole to sleep, it frees the inhabitants? Since DI isn't sleeping, there would be no inhabitants to rescue. There's a similar issue with Radiant Garden, though the scene we observed is clearly in the past. For some reason, I just don't want to visit Radiant Garden.
So the problem is we could look at that list and eliminate any world that isn't potentially sleeping, but with DI in the game, that might not be the case.
I would place my bets on Land of Departure making an appearance with new areas, because that place has a lot of untapped potential and we may even meet Eraqus. I'd also want Twilight Town for some new areas (and seeing Roxas and Axel), but I don't know how possible that would be.
I'm not inclined to say any of the end worlds will make an appearance, though I wouldn't throw Keyblade Graveyard completely out of the picture. Perhaps it was an actual world rather than a desolate wasteland prior to the Keyblade War.
EDIT:
The Dream Eaters were designed not to be traditionally cute, but to have charm that couldn’t be disliked. Wonder Cat was drawn to share that idea.
The color scheme is new this time; it’s more pastel unlike what we’ve done before.
I did pick up on that, and I'm glad they're using pastel/lighter shades as a motif. I felt like the Unversed were not different enough from the Heartless. A different color scheme goes a long way.
I want to see some legitimate Nightmares though. I do think a "charming" style is appropriate for dream creatures, but we still should be intimidated by some.
