Title: Phayre has fallen into a pit of video game despair!!!!
Post by: Phayre on August 22, 2007, 05:41:53 PM
...in other words, Phayre is playing a game in her #1 enemy franchise....KH. Namely, KH2.
Now, the thing is, I'd played this before, a little, and it was "eh, KH, excuse me while I barf". And now I'm suddenly caught up in stuff. I think I may be very ill. It's unnerving....
On a happier video game topic, my sister made Ember Sky characters in Soul Calibur 3. It's wondrous. I'm gonna go kick the crap out of Caolan now.

I really like the KH games. The downside is that I never managed to beat either one because I don't own a PS2, and because my little brother decided to play on my game file on KH 1, and saved. I deleted it, and never really got back to playing it again...

I really don't see why so many people hate the games; it's not like there's anything bad about them.

Amalgamations are effing fun. I mean, the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen? Wtf kind of comic is that? THE BEST DAMN COMIC EVER, MORTAL. Didnt much care for the movie though.
I've never played KH. Whats it like?

 I made Leonidas and the whole cast of Phoenix Wright.

 It's fun to finally be able to punc Edgeworth in the face.

Not many people seem to realize that Kingdom Hearts has an excellent, philosophical storyline. It was even analyzed by a few religious organizations and applauded. If you can get past the pre-teen anime atmosphere, the button mashing, and the Disney characters (which I personally love), you will enjoy it.

Post by: Phayre on August 22, 2007, 09:09:37 PM
I did all the Phoenix Wright people too. Phoenix, in an amazing turn of events, beat everyone else in a tournament. Even Franziska.... who was amazingly accurate. Although, she was pwned by her father, who was in turn pwned by Edgeworth.... so awesome. SO awesome.
I've watched KH played through, can't say I was impressed. Its storyline seemed too tied up in the amalgamation, not enough standalone. Having seen a lot of KH2, I like it better, and am enjoying it more.
Why do I dislike KH? It's not, believe it or not, because I hate the idea of Disney and FF together. I find the story good, but at a lot of points I think the morals are overly shoved in the face of the player. After a couple of hours, you want to punch the next person who talks about the power of friendship and stuff. I have a lot of trouble getting past the idea of taking Donald and Goofy seriously, as well. I don't know. It could be an incredible game.... without some of the elements that make it what it currently is.
Also.... why does Roxas have to stop being the hero? He and Reks from FFXII should have an "If I were the hero, you might not hate the hero's guts" party.

 Really? I don't think the first game was that deep. The second one seemed more phylosophical and less "Light=good, darkness=evil=bad" as for start, at the end of KH2, Sora and Riku consider becoming soldier of dark in order to keep balance in the world. (Or that's what I understood from that conversation.)




 Also, Phayre, as much as I don't take them seriously, you have to agree that (OMG SPOILERS)



































Goofy's death was awesome.

































(OMG NO SPOILERS)

Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 22, 2007, 10:47:02 PM
I played KH2.  The whole way through.

I never saw this:

(FAKE SPOILERS)














































Goofy's death was awesome.















































(END FAKE SPOLIERS)












If fact, I never saw any of the Disney characters
(More stuf you shouldn't read)

















































die.  At all.

























































(You can read now.)















Where was that?  I thought I saw Goofy, Mickey, and Donald in the ending.

After I beat Sephiroth, i never played it again. I sincerely just played the game for that. TO beat the **** out of that long hair mommy's boy fag.

I admit; he was quite stubborn.

Kingdom hearts itself is a great game. But sure, some worlds are jsut boring as they resemble the movies too much. You already know what is going to happen because you've seen it before.

But I don't have a problem with the disney characters, I only use Donald, Goofy and Auron either way. Conversations can be skipped when you've heard them once already and there is no bizzare suffering of the Wonderland.

I've always though of donald as a black mage, I'm not actually looking at him while I play so... Just a blue robe and a yellow hat that does squeaking sounds. And Goofy is just another goon of mine, simply dying in my place and trying to do any damage.

Enough about that, I still think that the Pirate world's graphic should have been altered into the KH style like everything else.
And the new gummiships own it took me weeks to figure out how to get every last piece of gummi during flight and earn my crown.

KH= ****. KH with original characters, enemies and the storyline it has with less gay characters= awesome. To me, while the story is good, a large majority of it seems like a cop out.

Kingdom Hearts 2 had exactly one fun battle - the 1000 heartless fight in like the middle of the game. That was pretty much it. The entire game was pretty much button mashing and involved no strategy whatsover.

Very true. And that one battle was specially fun cause it was massive mashing. However contradicting for me this is.

Yes, they should have more original characters. But having a bunch of unoriginal characters make the original appear better. Kinda.

But with my awsome imagination I am able to ignore the fact that pumba is staring at me *** while I'm talking to the lion king and replace the unoriginal with my own creations. Just in my head tthough...

Still love all the Organization XIII battles on hard mode. Pretty impossible and the Hard-Sephy-battle is just making me furious.

Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 23, 2007, 11:45:28 AM
I can't even beat him on easy.  ...I love how the final battle is easier than him.  Its like WTF?  I beat the final boss at Level 41 on my first try?  WTF!

Post by: Grandy on August 23, 2007, 02:03:40 PM
People who complain about Disney in KH should remember that the whole point of the game was to give orgasms to fanboys and girls who have this world traveling fetish. Like me.

Post by: Phayre on August 23, 2007, 04:56:45 PM
I loved the FF stuff. Why? Because I continue to be a squealing fangirl. The sequence in Hollow Bastion with one FF person kicking booty for you after another is awesome. I will hold to that until the day I die. Of course, there seem to be more similarities to Advent Children than FF7 there..... *glares at Tifa*
But yeah.... darkness/light.... feh. The Organization actually has motive and interesting characters, rather than "I'm evil! Let's make everybody evil! Evil evil evil!" *glares momentarily at Maleficent* The second game's portrayal of even the two groups of bad guys being against each other and Sora having to admit that maaaaaaaaaaybe they have a point is good.
As for button mashing.... it's sooooo refreshing. I can't handle any more turn based for a while, after playing FFVIII (has anyone else noticed the whole Leon contradiction in KH? What if he stumbled into Twilight Town and "OMG Seifer!" or Destiny Islands and "OMG Selphie!", hmmm? Only one left, my ***) and testing battle after battle in Ember Sky..... I was ready to explode. And Tales of Destiny spoiled me rotten on awesome battle systems.

 As for the Seifer/Selphie and Yuna/Rikku/uh... goth girl from X-2/Tidus/Wakka thing, I believe that since they are in other worlds, the usual fanfic rule for worlds to have parallel characters fits in.


 Also, I'm buying a gameshark someday soon.

 Why? Because I just learned it is possible to subistitute Donald and Goofy permanetly for Cloud and Tifa. And that's a win in my book.

 I still like Donald for his abilities, and Goofy because..... no wait I hate Goofy.

I will never understand these kinds of quotes. Kingdom Hearts is a Disney game. They just recognized that they suck at making video games, so they asked Squenix to do it.

If you really want a KH game like this, buy a Playstation 3 and wait for Final Fanatsy vs. XIII. It's designed by the exact same team, it's story will be written by Tetsuya Nomura again but with a more serious atmosphere, and it'll have a similar battle system.

I get what you mean about the "darkness/evil" thing. They made that really cheesy in KH2. It felt much more well done in the first.

I thought that fight was a pain in the ***. I admit the controls were better, but the fights felt no where near as good as the first.

Actually, I didn't buy it.  Our school had a raffle drawing, and my gf bought me a ticket to put it the PS2 one.  I won.  And I had friends that put in 20+ for it.  When I didn't even had to pay anything! Ha.
