You can hold that opinion if you want to. I don't agree with it at all. I think it's hypocritical to go hard for one side of the equation and just shrug at the absence of the other. Other than KH1, the Disney characters could be cut wholesale and the original story would be entirely unaffected. But I don't want the games to be without Disney any more than I wanted them to be without FF. And, speaking for myself, the original characters do not fill the void of Final Fantasy.
I mean, am I the only one who thinks the KH charactershave very little in common with FF characters? They have weird clothes, yes, but they act like something out of an anime and most of the protagonists are childish and immature. Xehanort, Larxene, and Vexen ham it up like Disney villains. The inane storyline is definitely a KH-only thing. FF games have never had a problem making sense.
Spoiler ShowAlso, I'm a bigger fan of The World Ends With You, so seeing that Nomura might be heading in that direction makes me happy. Their world and plot actually will have a purpose for Sora besides just being cameos. If Sora woke up in any Final Fantasy world in the secret video - I doubt it would have had the same effect that waking up in Shibuya did. Most people probably would have been "where is this random place?"
At the end of the day, KH was NEVER 50% Disney and 50% Final Fantasy.
Are we going in circles in here? This is the point I responded to in the first place--saying that, yes, you could rip out the FF characters and the story would mostly be fine, but the exact same thing could be said for the Disney characters in any game but KH1?You want to talk about how the Disney characters could be completely cut from KH2 and the main story would be unaffected?
The Disney characters are no longer "needed" either, but they will always be wanted and the same goes for the FF characters. Maleficent does nothing relevant in KH3. The talk about PoHs is superficial; they are not important. Mickey doesn't even have a substantial role like 2 and 1, except to fill a quota.I just said that they are no longer needed.
I never said it was. Jesus, take a break from the caps.

I like the TWEWY characters, too; I include them under the FF umbrella (which should really be "the Square characters."). I definitely hope the Secret Ending means Riku and Sora end up in some kind of TWEWY locale and/or plot.
