THANK GOD. I couldn't imagine them not doing one when even after watching videos, people still don't understand how it plays lol

Will be my first time trying out this genre. hope it clicks well.

From how it played, seems like it was similar button commands to a regular KH game...so hopefully it is definitely a smooth transition for us KH fans

 

[Katsagu]

I'm going to SSS every song on the hardest difficulty on this demo.

There is this notion of movement that has been kept. You can see Sora having to jump and glide to catch some notes. That's amazing. It really feels KH-esque.

Oh I wasn't expecting this. I may give it a try then.

My guess is we’ll get 1-3 songs in the demo. What song(s) does everyone want in the demo?

Under the Sea
Part of Your World
A Little Bit Alexis Let It Go

Keeping it to just the songs we know are confirmed...

Even though they're very unlikely IMO:
Field Battle: Another Side -Battle Version-
Memory Dive: Simple and Clean
Boss Battle: Xemnas (Darkness of the Unknown)

Keeping it to something probably more realistic:
Field Battle: Hand in Hand
Memory Dive: Roxas
Boss Battle: The Encounter -BBS version-

My lame guess is that they will let us play one of the songs they showed in the gameplay presentation.

"Shrouding Dark Cloud" or "Working Together"

I'm also going to throw "Roxas" into it.

Under the Sea
Part of Your World
A Little Bit Alexis Let It Go

Those are cruel choices

 

[Launchpad]

I want Squirming Evil from KH1 for the demo. I feel like on max difficulty that song is gonna smack us around harder than we expect and I want to know how hard things can get in the demo

 

[AegisXIII]

How surprising would it be if the demo had impeto obscuro and that's it?

 

[AdrianXXII]

I'm looking forward to giving this demo a try.

For all 3 stages. Field Battle is literally all Xehanort replicas.

I'm guessing you'll be able to sample the demo via downloading it, right? I plan to get this game regardless of the demo, but trying out this rhythm system before playing the actual game could be quite fun. I hope they do that for any KH game that deviates from normal KH gameplay. I'm so anxious to play this game. Just one more month.

Yes, 99% of modern demos are downloadable.

Edit: To add, at least when the demo comes out, you can practice and become an ace at the song(s) they feature.

 

[Recon]

It comes out this month wooo

Mid-October? I swear I remember reading somewhere saying 10th of October or was I half asleep? Still looking forward to it!

I don't remember seeing any sources that said October 10th, but IIRC I think the PSN store updates on tuesdays, so I imagine that means the demo will drop on the 13th hopefully.
