In-engine probably.
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
This site keeps crashing due to the high traffic volume of pure, unadulterated KH3 hype, so before it crashes on me again, I just wanted to post this lovely and well-informed article a la IGN before they edit their failure lol
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
So many feels T_T
I'm still undecided on Sora's outfit, but I loved the gameplay we saw. I've been fostering a secret hope for the teacups for a while now.

I'm freaking losing it right now, this is way too much ;v;
The combat especially looks damn beautiful
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
No Rapunzel as a party member :(
Everything else looked great though. My favorite parts being the teacups and chariot
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
Young Xehanort looks like a nortified Aqua to me and Young Eraqus looks so FREAKING ADORABLE! ; D ;
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
I'm CALLING IT. Young Eraqus is DRAKE BELL!!

That was refreshing. Still no word on a future remaster or DDD HD. Trailer was awesome though, had story elements and gameplay. The size of the worlds though. Awesome.
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
Was that cutscene pre-rendered or was it in-engine? Because it was absolutely beautiful, and it almost makes up for the fact that KH3 is out on the PS4 instead of the PS3 I bought to play, haha.
This is a pretty small thing, but I really enjoyed the visual metaphor going on in the background with the chess game!
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
SO diddlyING BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE YOU GOD!!!!
LIFE IS SWEET!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU NOMURA AND SQUARE ENIX!!!!!!!
I WANNA WATCH IT AGAIN, I WANNA WATCH IT AGAIN!!!! AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND WHY AM I USING SHIFT STILL, CAPS LOCK! AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
is the site still up?
- No it's not... well I guess it will be when this post get up.
Man that platforming though :D and the huge world, oh man! :D
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
I'm not sure if anyone noticed this, but the buttons and flaps on Sora's upper jacket reminds me of the great coats used by officers during the first world war.... and Sora definitely has a new fighting style... that reminds me of Terra's.
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
by the architecture shown in the trailer (greek columns and statues) it appears mount Olympus will finally be in KH!
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
I'm 2/2 so far when it comes to predicting Disney worlds. Perfect 2 worlds to reveal, a recent classic and a series staple getting a whole new look.
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
At least we know that the Oathkeeper-like keyblade from the exclusive 2.5 ReMIX trailer and the Starlight-like Keyblade are one and the same.
Also every Keyblade seems to have unique transformations, at least the new Hercules keyblade can transform into a chariot.
Edit: The chess figures are really interesting. Eraqus' bear symbols like the Mickey head, crown and a heart while Xehanort's seem to represent the Goat/Dragon/Chimera of his keyblade, the Guardian and Vanitas.
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
My alarm clock hasn't even gone off yet, but it's nearly 5 in the MORNING!!! 8D
...And now I'm too hyped to go back the sleep. X (
I honestly had no idea that was HMK shouting, "THANK YOU!!!" until someone pointed it out. XP
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
So the confirmed worlds are Tangled, Coliseum/Mount Olympus, and Twilight Town? Also, was the chariot thing a summon or a keyblade feature? I thought that was just the summoning of the pegasus from Hercules.
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
The shading is a bit weird, but the gameplay looks soooo fresh
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
Looks like it is Mount Olympus at the beginning. I thought it was just part of Tangled at first. Curious thing about Sora having his KH2 outfit in the former and the new outfit in the latter. Could just be due to development, but maybe it will be like KH2 where he still has his old clothes in the beginning.
Also fun observation: looks like Twilight Town repaired the hole in the wall
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
Officially HQ videos in the OP! Took their damn time

Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
ROFLMAO at IGN and their usual failure to get anything concerning Kingdom Hearts right.
Agrabah and Riku, yea sure you nincompoops...
I'm still on the fence if the room Young Eraqus and Xehanort are in is situated at the Land of Departure castle (architecture and lighting surely point to it) or if it is part of that ominuous "Cable Town" from the closed theater trailer.
Oh, and by the way, the breakthrough to the Old mansion in Twilight Town got really walled up. It is clearly visible during the gameplay scenes taking place in Twilight Town.

Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
I saw that! Does that mean that the mansion is no longer explorable, or that you'll have to take a completely alternate route to get there? It does seem they are taking the time to make every world seem much more open and alive.
While we can only theorize, something tells me the mansion won't be in the game. I mean, I don't really see a purpose to closing up the hole if the mansion were to play any role whatsoever, why not just keep the hole open or have something blocking it (that could, for story purposes, be cleared out) versus completely re-sealing it.
As for the Mount Olympus section (which I totally though was Tangled at the beginning), it looks like most of the area is 1 gigantic room from what we saw in the trailer. From the beginning of him hoping over the river to him running by the statue and then on top of those rocks, you can see the river and the statue he ran past below him as different sections below him to the right so I think that might have been 1 room. When he runs by that swirly tree on the left that might be a second room so these rooms are going to be big.
Also, when he did that Flowmotion-like hop up on the Rock Titan, is that the kind of Flowmotion movement we will be seeing? It would make sense if the rooms are as large as that initial Olympus Colisseum room which is perhaps even bigger than where Oogie's Manor was in KH1 AND it has so much too it.
Finally, on the note about no Rapunzel as a team partner, I wouldn't count her out yet. If you saw them walking towards the tower, it sure didn't look like they knew where they were. This could be their initial encounter with Rapunzel after which she may join your team (or Flynn could, I'm not sure where in the storyline of Tangled SDG will come upon the tower). Personally, I still would love if Rapunzel/Flynn were already gone and SDG walked in on Mother Gothel having a panic attack and she used her cunning to persuade them to help her (she's good like that).
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
^ Yeah I wouldn't worry bout not seeing Rapunzel as a party member in the trailer. I mean the only Disney character we saw in the trailer was Rock Titan so it's no big deal. Having said that, she better be one in the game since part of the fun of a SDG adventure is teaming up other world characters and it'd be such a waste not to have her join the party. Frying pan attacks, hairspin attacks, healing powers? What waste indeed.
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
I don't know if I'm happy about the switch to Unreal Engine 4. The look of the new gameplay is different from what they showed at D23, and comparing those two videos, I like the look of the old one a better. Hopefully they can polish this up a little more to make it more like Kingdom Hearts?
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
I can't even live right now. Square Enix just killed me.
Just some random things I noticed after rewatching the trailer: Sora's outfit is amazing, I completely dig it, and I think it might be his best one yet. Don't see any "Xs" on his outfit at all, either;)
Sor's hair looks amazing; I love his bangs, and his locks seems more windswept to me somehow, like Ven and Roxas'.
Shotlocks might be back, and if so I'm hella excited. Eep!
Tangled being confirmed just made my life, because it was the ONE world I wanted more than ANY other. How I love you, SE!
Eraqus has pants similar to Terra's, and I think I'm all ready starting to like him a bit more. Like, bless him saying there's more to the light than Xehanort realizes.
They're definitely hinting about Xehanort's Keyblade again...
Platforming in Tangled over those logs! And EVERYTHING there, like the water, looks absolutely GORGEOUS!!!!:D
Sora seems really, REALLY powerful in this game, but I think it's cool and makes sense for our would-be-Master.
Tea cups! ^_^
And dang, I didn't even notice that Pegasus Sora summons at the end the first time! It's like one of the Dream Eaters all over again, in fact=)
Why is everything so wonderful and beautiful here?
Why do they all ready have English voice acting giving me false hope about a speedy localization?!
WHY?!?!?!?!
-cries happily forever-
Life made. LIFE MADE.
...I might come and update this more later... :D
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
Really liked most everything I saw but I'm going to make a few complaints. First Sora's run animation looks really poor. Its really weird too, because that hasn't really been in issue in past games. Second, I hope this game can achieve the level of difficulty found in recent kh games. This seems very KH2 in terms of having way to many overpowered attacks. I'm sure this is much like the 2013 FFXV trailer though, where Noctis was intentionally shown off at a high level.
Everything else though was great. Loving the amount of depth in the environments. Sora jumping off that cliff reminded my of Xenoblade. Also those keyblade transformations are wonderfully over the top.
We are never getting a release date lmao
omg, it all looks so awesome. btw have anyone noticed the calendar when YE looks up to YMX, it could be october/2015, december/2016 or even march/2018, what do you guys think about it?

It's definitely not out of the question that if those are the possible months being shown, October 2015 could be the Unchained release window, December 2016 could be the KH3 release window, and who knows about March 2018? Next saga perhaps?

I think it's obvious Sora is at a high level in the trailer. He might not have a lot of those abilities yet when we actually reach those worlds.
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
Why does YX sound like Haley Osment?
"And I'm incredibly proud, this is my film, the film that I produced, that I love. It's going to be the first one in a series. It's called Tangled"
I'm excited for more Disney film makers to introduce their films. I hope they've been giving creative help to building the worlds
What the hell!!!
I need to chill off!!! THIS IS AMAZING.
The gameplay makes me feel like this would be BEST VG EVER.
We need to analyze every seconds of this video and start to theorize
Okay this was amazing and I urge anyone with a PS4 to do it too.
Download the new Media Player on PS4.

Put a USB in your computer and make a folder.

I'm so happy with how the environments are looking. Its great to see that Square is directly working with Disney's creators to make these worlds look as authentic as possible.
My God... when I watched this live... I freaked out. I would like to note a few things though.
1. It seems that the Health meters aren't animated anymore like they were in the original gameplay prototype
2. Is it just me or does the chess game seem to be foreshadowing who's going to be the 13 darknesses and the 7 lights?
3. Is this actual gameplay? I don't know how this stuff works, but nothing is moving around in the UI at all during the gameplay. I mean it looks like actual gameplay soooo...

It's not a real UI, it's stuck over the top of the footage.
Now that the hype has run its course a bit, and the excitement has been toned down, I'd like to talk about some of the negative points I have with the current build:
- animation could be way better and looks pretty stiff for a current-gen game
- camera seems to be having a hard time keeping up with all the crazy attacks
- texture-work needs work, especially for the in-game models
- AI doesn't look that smart
- HUD looks ugly
Now, obviously, this is a work-in-progress and honestly wasn't expecting them to be this far into development already. However, these are still issues that I hope will be fixed in the final product. The huge areas look amazing, but I remember how frustrating DDD was at times when you died at the end of a big area and needed to restart at the start of said area, so that's another concern I have.
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
Dayummm! Sora looks fine! He's so mature, handsome and the way he handles that Keyblade in the trailer! Seriously cannot wait for this game to come out. I will buy it and probably finish it in the first week! [video=youtube;NKo4BgDnlfQ]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKo4BgDnlfQ[/video]
And can we please just look at Eraqus; so fucking cute!!!
So I guess I am the one who will complain about this :P
- Graphics look good. They have probably a long way ahead of them do this could improve vastly but I can't help but drool over most of the stuff they are showing us. The beautiful areas, the grass turning when you cast aero, the particle effects, the gorgeous lightning. Animation needs work but the overall feel is very good. Love the artstyle they are going for.
- The gameplay looks flashy.. like, really flashy. I am wondering if this is because they just have a lot of stuff they want to show and "wow" the audience or if this game is gonna turn out like another KH2. I would like for it to have more substance than that - not another "press Δ to win" game.
It looks like it's relying too much on summons, transformations,shotlocks, QTEs, theme park attacks etc. I am not too crazy about a train coming to pick me up and having to press a button a button every now and then after that to defeat the villains.
It looks cool but it doesn't look like it's gonna be fun to play. Hopefully it's just a demonstration thing and the gameplay will be more varied - seriously, Sora must have used his keyblade to strike the Heartless 2-3 times in the whole demo, the rest was magic/special attacks.
- The design... oh boy... Nomura has created Sora in his own image... This is the best I can do to explain it. I absolutely hate Sora's design.
I don't like the colours but I can deal with that. I still think KH2's clothes are the best. Hopefully a DLC costume can rectify that.
I don't like how the design is leaner than the old clothes. Everything is less.. puffy.. His outer pockets are gone, his belt is positioned under his vest etc etc. I may be nipticking, but I am not very fond of the whole aesthetic. I also have a feeling that it has something to do with having a simpler model so that they don't have to do complicated clothing simulation while playing with him. I guess I can give that a pass as well.
What I really don't like is (1) the emo hair and the (2) neckline cut. Let me show you what I mean
Sora has two models in this trailer.
The one is from the demo we've seen in 2013 and now on Olympus (with the KH2 clothes) and the newer, emo model with the newer clothes and hair.
[SPOILER=big images] 
[/SPOILER]
Notice the hairline. His bangs are now different and make him look weird. His overall design is also kinda depressing IMO (guess Nomura's burning anger is to blame). Lastly, am I the only one who thinks that his neckline makes him look.. well.. gay?? Anyone else that prefers the old design all in all?

I think it's a little bit too much, but there's time to adjust. Not sure how a neckline makes you look gay without relying on harmful stereotypes. Care to enlighten or pick less offensive terminology?

I'm definitely doing that. I don't know if my body can handle the awesomeness
This trailer was awesome! Seeing a peek of Eraqus and Xehanort's origins. Sora's new combos and gameplay (note flow motion returns!). New world from Tangled. Rock Titan looks like a devastating boss. Only thing is Sora does like a tad strange in his new clothes. Doesn't look finished yet so they'll probably change them up a bit before the release. Speaking of release, still no date. Not too surprised because it looked unrefined still. However a great trailer nonetheless!
Xehanort`s voice is even more creepy in Japanese. Eraqus voice also really good:https://youtu.be/7Ti3bLIvHw8?t=134
I think both the English one and Japanese one are really good

I definitely see where you're coming from. I think it just looks so off both so much of his upper chest is exposed, even the necklace is touching his bare chest. Looks pretty weird, I'm sure they can still change that though. I'm okay with the hair, looked better before but doesn't bother me so much.
DLC costumes, that'll be interesting. I'm sure they'll have some silly costumes in store
The Xehanort from this trailer, he kind of reminds me of Aqua a bit.
Does Sora have a fried fish Keyblade? XD

nope...it's a Zeus themed keyblade.

Maybe. The cliff the Rock Titan was climbing could possibly be Mount Olympus. The plot of Olympus in KH3 could be Hades invading the gods like in the movie
Everything about the KH coverage was glorious, from the trolling, to Roy conli being called master xehanort, to that fucking beautiful trailer. The new art style is a little off-putting yet at the same time spectacular, the only thing that really bothers me is: if that's Drake Bell voicing YE like I think I will be so pissed.
GOTY 2025 guys

I don't see how it's offensive (??). To me it looks like something a gay person would wear. I'm not saying that's bad, it is what it is. To someone else it might just look "weird" or "off". I just find it's a strange design choice by Nomura and I wanted to see what everyone else thought.

Yeah, that's a strong possibility. I wonder if Sora would help Hercules fight against that Cyclops. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4B5xbgYCF8

You're stereotyping gay men by saying v-necks are something only they would wear. Yes that is offensive because not all gay men walk around wearing those kind of clothes. But all that for another day.
I like the new neckline, but it's a matter of personal taste I suppose. Also his hair is starting to resemble Roxas' a bit, am I the only one who sees it that way? I mean we've had (alleged) effects of Roxas on Sora's hair (becoming lighter in color and whatnot). So how about it?
Actually, I got the impression Sora had a similar look to Tidus from FFX with his upper chest being exposed with the necklace. I also don't find it gay either. The new look was something I happen to like for the most part. :3 He's older by another year, so his hair should be a little longer. As far as the rest of his clothes look, they're good to me and less of an eyesore and the under coat looks like it resembles Noctis jacket.

Best part about this post = Sora has fingers. ~
I love the new designs!!!! This trailer wasn't comprehensive, but it was definitely good.
Just to point something out… is it me or does Eraqus have blue eyes (not brown) in this trailer?
Initially, I didn't like Sora's new design, but I'm starting to, not like it, but rather grow on it. If they had me rank Sora's clothing...
KH2 >>> DDD >>> KH3 >>> KH1
Best part about this post = Sora has fingers. ~
Yes! That's exactly what I thought too! :)
I find this outfit the best one he's had. The KH2 outfit was just ridiculous and while the KH1 was fitting it was only so for KH1 itself, maybe CoM as well. It's weird to see Soras actual hands though. lol
Also when I see Sora new outfit all I see is this:
I have not been in this thread for some time......
That Olympus OK'd was right out of my dreams, I knew that was the only area left to explore. Fighting all the titans, and making our way up.
I was actually expecting keyblade armor in parts of the armor but the more I watch this trailer I am really okay without it. It's better designed than KH or KH2's costumes and is a cross between the latter and DDD's sora design.
Is it just me, or do the weird facial redesigns remind me of arkham knight's trailer?
So was Tangled the only confirmed new world from that?

Yes. Potentially twilight town and very likely Olympus coliseum but that may be placeholder footage and nothing is set in stone besides tangled.

Gotcha thanks - originally watched it on my phone at work and didn't even realize what he was standing in front of until I saw Chaser's comparison above - still seems unreal haha
I agree that faces do seem a little "off" but that is almost par for the course on recent next gen sequels. Everyone from Batman to Uncharted look incredible but slightly different now that they're getting even more high res.
Am I the only one confused by how weird Xehanort looks? Like, I knew it was him, but when we see his face, he looks more like if RiAqua became canon and had a child instead of, you know, the actual Young Xehanort we've seen, even before he left the Islands.
Most awkward chess game ever.
So with headphones in, I'm 90% sure that Young Eraqus is Drake Bell

sounds like a very close match to me

More than that, I actually think Roxas' design is a definite influence in Sora's new clothes too. Those checkered patterns and what-not, plus the overall "smoother" look than the crazy, extravagant look Sora had in KH2.
People have probably noticed this already but, Where Xehanorts Future keyblade is hung it looks like a keyhole :O
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
I'm not the only one to notice the Keyhole behine Xehanorts Keyblade right? :O
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
Late to the party but oh well that was amazing! It all looks so good. :D The Eraqus/Xehanort scenes are very interesting and I like the addition of the chess game. We finally get to explore Mt. Olympus! I'm actually surprised most people thought it was from Tangled since you can see the design resemblance from Olympus Coliseum(though I get it since they announced Tangled's inclusion right before the trailer). The Tangled world itself looks great, Sora's outfit looks great, the Keyblade transformations look great, and the teacups look great! Basically it's all great.
This is definitely not the final build (of course) since I noticed, other than Goofy's team attack (which itself looked cool), Donald and Goofy didn't really do anything during the battles.
This site keeps crashing due to the high traffic volume of pure, unadulterated KH3 hype, so before it crashes on me again, I just wanted to post this lovely and well-informed article a la IGN before they edit their failure lol
Had to reply to this. I mean really? Are they serious with this? They have to just be messing with us at this point right?
I saw that! Does that mean that the mansion is no longer explorable, or that you'll have to take a completely alternate route to get there? It does seem they are taking the time to make every world seem much more open and alive.
Well considering that jump we saw Sora take in Olympus I'm just going to assume that you have to jump off the clock tower to reach it now. :D
EDIT: I also meant to ask something. This might have been answered in a previous page (which I plan on reading through the rest later) but, for those who saw it, was there anything in the secret trailer from the KH event last year that was in the E3 one?
Okay this was amazing and I urge anyone with a PS4 to do it too.
Download the new Media Player on PS4.
Download the trailer.
Put a USB in your computer and make a folder.
Put the trailer into that folder.
Put the USB into your PS4 and launch Media Player.
Watch the trailer on your TV.
Sora, fair warning: If you're going into that tower, wear a helmet. You'll thank me later.
lol In all seriousness though, the trailer looks INCREDIBLE! Still no release date, but that's fine. I'm still hyped! I still love Sora's new outfit!
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3 at Square Enix Conference - New Trailer!
Lmao they hardly ever get anything like this right xD Hmmm I'm not really sure. That scene is going to be heavily scoured by all of us theorists xD Yay for KH3!

I love the new designs!!!! This trailer wasn't comprehensive, but it was definitely good.
Just to point something out… is it me or does Eraqus have blue eyes (not brown) in this trailer?
I'm not the only one to notice the Keyhole behine Xehanorts Keyblade right? :O
Honestly, there's so much stuff there that I completely missed the keyhole.
I am excited, and overjoyed to finally see a bit more of this game. That and the official anouncment of Final fantasy 7 . I'm in a very good very happy place right now. Tangled looks awesome!
Sora, fair warning: If you're going into that tower, wear a helmet. You'll thank me later.
In the least mean way possible, because I really do love Sora, I hope he gets smacked by a frying pan. We can't have a Tangled world without a beloved character getting hit over the head with a frying pan.

In that case, that'd be more likely to happen to Donald than it would Sora.
So with headphones in, I'm 90% sure that Young Eraqus is Drake Bell
He screwed up his public image so bad 2 weeks ago they proably cant announce him
he better stay quiet becasue he needs the work bad

Now what did he do? lol
But ya it definitely sounds like him after watching for the umpteenth time.

He tweeted "Sorry still calling you Bruce." after Caitlyn Jenner's debut. So naturally, social media went wild attacking him for being transphobic. But I am 90% sure that it is his voice, too.
Like I said in the other thread, I think it's Justin Cowden. Reason being I don't think Young Eraqus is going to have a big enough role in the game to justify hiring a big-name star like Drake Bell.

While I 100% hope you are right, I can't help but laugh at the idea of Drake Bell being called a big-name star lol.

I wonder who meets Rapunzel first,Eugene or Sora.
Though i guess them both appearing at the same time would be hilarious.

I was thinking the same exact thing lol. Drake Bell hasn't been relevant since Drake and Josh.
I'd honestly be really surprised if it does turn out to be Drake Bell.

My guess is that Sora will walk into the tower with Eugene already tied up by Rapunzel. That will be a awkward moment, LOL

It would be even funnier if he took two steps back in that scene and be afraid of Rapunzel :3

I foresee either Flynn and Rapunzel are already out on their own and Sora will find Mother Gothel first who "needs their help to save her daughter from a rugged criminal (insert Flynn's Wanted poster with his odd nose)" which would essentially get rid of the need for the Stabbington Brothers (although they would be a super cool side boss)
OR
Sora meets Rapunzel and she does her whole "trap you with my hair thing" which would be hilarious to see Sora be trapped in a hair net like Flynn was except it turns out Flynn is already knocked out in her closet? IDK...
OR
Sora just meets Rapunzel before Flynn comes along but I don't really see how this would work since then Rapunzel's first interaction with the outside world would be with Sora and not Flynn, and I think it should be Flynn since he provides her route of escape.
My guess is that Sora will walk into the tower with Eugene already tied up by Rapunzel. That will be a awkward moment, LOL
Or better yet Sora is the one that falls into the trap?
There are 3 worlds I want the most in KH3. Frozen, Tangled, and Toy Story.
You can imagine my hype when Tangled was confirmed. I wasn't that hopeful that it would be included in any KH game, let alone KH3.
This trailer made E3 even more amazing than it already was after the Sony conference.

What happens if Rapunzel meets both Flynn and Sora at the same time.

Toy Story and Jungle Book are mine. I was teased with Jungle Book in BBS but hopefully it makes its way in KH3.
I just really realized how crazy it is that our first real trailer for the game had English voices. Shit.
I really think we're gonna get a lot of info about the game around winter. We might actually see it in time for the holidays next year.
It's particularly impressive to me that the Japanese and English versions of the trailer had proper lip-syncing for the respective languages.

More KH3 news has already been guaranteed at the Kingdom Hearts event to take place at D23 Expo Japan in November :)

It's been such a magical year T-T
The months to come are gonna be a BOMB for SE!! ��
It makes me really happy to know that my renditions from almost a year ago were pretty accurate. Now I can rest and relax not worrying about how my memories may have went off lol.

Stuff both in the closet? That just leaves the matter of Donald and Goofy.

Looks like Rapunzel has to perform a frying pan-omnislash to knock them all out...
I really hope Rapunzel becomes a party member for this world. Her frying pan would be a great weapon.

Haha xD
Also, anyone else hoping the horse and chameleon are in it too? They were rather adorable.

I don't doubt we will see them. Max essentially saves everybody, and Pascal was Rapunzel's only friend for 18 years.
Could someone who is more versed in Japanese transcribe the original lines of the translated "On that land shall darkness prevail and light expire" speech from Xehanort (from here)?
It sounds like it's also part of the Book of Prophecy, specifically it sounds like it comes before the other two lines we already have.
Edit: Found it, it's really the same as in the E3 2014 trailer: 地上は闇が支配し光は消失しました
I hope with them collaborating now they encourage square in adding more npcs.I swear if the kingdom in tangled is empty or they find some way to avoid going there...
In regards to Olympus coliseum, I hope they introduce the other titans besides the rock and ice ones. I want to fight the lava titan
I'm assuming system limitations were the reason the wind and lava titans haven't been added,even if they really wanted too.
Same possible reason why Hades never had the smokey base like in the movie.
It's mostly absolutely gorgeous. The in-game is incredible. Still, I feel like there's going to be such a disconnect between this last chapter and the rest of the series, among other reasons, because it does look so different. And I don't know how I feel about Sora's new outfit yet. It just reminds me of a watered down version of Valor Form.
Now that they've announced Rapunzel's world, I guess it's finally time for me to watch Tangled. xD
Man the game looks amazing. I like the new moves.

System limitations make sense. Hopefully that won't be an issue with the PS4. If not, than at least use the Cyclops

I believe they were probably waiting for a system that could run the two titans. After all, the Lava Titan is molten liquid and basically gelatinous, and the Wind Titan would feature lots of particle effects I guess.
Oh man! They just gave us so much information! Thank u SE!!! I loved the scenes with Young Xehanort and Eraqus. And did u see Xehanorts keyblade hung on the wall? That could it was never passed down to him, and he stole it!
I was shocked when I first saw Sora's new duds. And I didn't think they were all that great. But, the more I look at it, the cooler they get! And he definately grew too. But where's Riku? The gameplay looked awesome! I can't wait!
I want to fight all 4 Titans, not just Rock and Ice. I've wanted to fight Lava and Wind for a while.
And for the love of God, Square, PLEASE, include Bahamut as a boss in this game.
I'm actually wondering how fighting the Wind and Lava titan will work.
Seems like they would mainly be attraction flow fights,cloak the train with ice magic and ram lava titan for massive damage lol.
Though i guess with possibly having Hercules as a party member he'll do something that makes it easier to fight/dmg them.
Cyclops seems the easiest to beat though so i hope we fight him first.
