Apologies to Faemarch but I just couldn't wait, I'm so excited about this update!

15 story quests out of nowhere! I had to write a temporary notice myself since Square didn't bother doing it themselves lol. I've been waiting for this update for so long, but I didn't expect we would get the final 5 quests now. The five union leaders are here! And they only fucked up Brain's name.

I rushed through these quests to get to Strelitzia, all the while yelling at Sign. When the scene started playing of her in her bedroom I was like "uh Sign, is this meant to be here?". Boy that was such a rush. I'm glad we've gotten those important cutscenes out of the way. On towards Agrabah!

Also I'm excited for the Ducktale medals. I binged the series very recently and I was surprised by its quality. Even if it doesn't make sense, I need Huey, Dewey, and Louie in KH3 to match their new DuckTales personality. Have David Tennent voice Uncle Scrooge. Bring in Webby as well. She is a very smart girl who knows a lot about ancient and mystical items. She can know something about the Book of Prophecies, Luxu's case, or the Key to Return Hearts. Plus she would flip out over Sora's Keyblade and I need to see that.

I hope Faemarch understands why you did it, because I sure do!
The Strelitzia part all at once, I'm glad we got this other bit done, plus those Duck Tales medals that I absolutely want.

For those wondering, a very important Strelitzia scene is missing a sound effect in the English version.

[SPOILER=Quest 730]In the Japanese cutscene, you can hear a weapon, most likely a Keyblade:

[video=youtube;8KGPQbZ3QWg]https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=55&v=8KGPQbZ3QWg[/video]

Meanwhile that sound effect is absent in the English version. [/SPOILER]

Wasn't it yourself that had a moan at me for doing this once? :rolleyes:

Moon Gem challenge was very easy this time around. I guess they all will be now that we have medals like Kairi EX (and copy medals for her) - I guess it won't be long until they up the difficulty.
Also glad this story element has finally hit global. Not that I play global much anymore (and the missions will definitely help building the jewels for when I need them!), but it's nice to see the official translations of the events.

You don't have access to getting the information on the website and then onto KHI's social media pages :P

The date officially changed now and yet no notice about the story updates. That's kinda weird. I mean I won't complain and I'll rush through them tomorrow since I have to stack up on a few Louies here, but it's curious that they forgot (and instead went to announce the Ducktales medals that aren't even in the game yet).

Aaaah, I don’t know anymore. Do we think the Ducktale medals will get a banner? Because if so I’ll save.. but if not, I’d like to pull once or more on the chrrent banner. :/ Anybody got an idea?

Anyway, time to bring back some of my ol' memes about this.

* 3 remaining.

Uh, I'm probably out of the loop here and it is certainly a matter of taste but what artistic abomination are those "Ducktales"-medals supposed to be?


This is the supposed art-style of Ducktales as I know it, same quality as the Gargoyles.

*confused*

I have another reason for a Like button.

These are my Ducktales as well. As a matter of fact I'm still waiting for my Season 4 box set to be released.

If they're good medals of course I'll probably pull, but I feel this messes with the game's lore. The medals are supposed to be strength from the future and I'm having a hard time thinking that new Ducktales, WoFF, Tsum Tsum, etc. medals are related to the KH series and not shameless advertisements. It's probably safe to assume that I'm alone on this lol.

There has been a new Duck Tales series.
It was announced in 2015 and debuted with a first season in August 2017.

[SPOILER] [/SPOILER]

There's four of them at once and this is SENA we're talking about. I'm 100% sure they'll be a Banner, WOFF/Tsum style with one per pull. Makes way too much sense.

Story Update the heck outta nowhere, but I'm not complaining! Hopefully this means we'll get the updated artwork for the homescreen with all the new Union Members+New Coaty soon. Here's hoping the next batch is a double too so that we can really catch up. TThe pessimist in me thinks this is an exception since it was 15 quests and that's a normal Story Update amount, but I really wanna hope we'll get a true catch-up.

The DuckTales medals are great. Any idea if DuckTales 2017 is coming out soon in JP? Cause that would be my guess on when the JP version gets them.

No Donald is so weird tho. Him and Mrs Beakley being left out is sad. A Della one would be great too, but that's different.

I think Ven pulling and seeing Ven medals already messes with the intended lore anyway.

I really hope Ducktales aren't copy medals. They're ugly :l

Glad we got more story and 1000 jewels with it.

I was taken aback by the sudden Strelitiza quests all in one fell swoop myself. I swear Strelitzia got the Xion treatment though, not even mentioned in the announcements or twitter. :( So decided I would make my own tribute to her on my channel. Working on it right now.

Even SENA realizes how stupid this whole Strelitzia crap is and just skips it xDDD

Certainly not the first time they've completely forgotten about an announcement. No respect for Strelitzia.

Also fix Blaine's name, please :(

That's....odd, maybe even suspicious, or maybe they felt the sound gave too much away?

I hate that this isn't brought up in game because it would be such a cool plot point having them wonder why there's medals of Ven and Luariam.

That just makes the scene more ridiculous :/ But I do wonder why they did it. Maybe Fudge is onto something

So weird they missed the story announcement!

I completed the new quests and I'm glad they released the Sterlitzia's story in only one update, it has been impossible avoiding spoilers about her and Lauriam being the fifth leader.
[spoiler]I guess Lauriam is an intruder between the Dandelions, probably sent by whoever killed Sterlitzia and stole the book. I'll do a recap about Daybreak Town's events tonight (I haven't watched "Back Cover" yet, neither I follow the JP translations or played the original game on browser). It seems to me there are some plot holes.[/spoiler]

By the way, the Moon Gem Cup looks interesting and rewarding, that's a pretty nice new content.

Well, Story Announcement is up on Twitter now, not sure about in-game though. They might add that in tomorrow along with whatever new banner shows up. Fridays are new Banner days after all.

Calling it now, either Ducktales Banner or Xehanort EX show up tomorrow. Xehanort is next chronologically but DT just got announced yesterday and SENA loves changing plans these days. Could swing either way.

First Ephemera, now Blaine. I will not accept these abominations of names. CORRECT THIS, SE.

Also Strelitzia got her tweet now.

I know Brain is a dumb dumb name and I hope if his name is ever spoken they pronounce it like "brine", but when we have a character named ​Braig, it leads me to believe "Brain" is the correct name and these two are related in some way.

And if Ephemera and Blaine are the "correct names", then why didn't Skuld get changed to Skulla and Strelitzia to Strudel?

[/FONT][/SIZE]

SAME. I can accept Ephemer (as much as I don't want to) but BLAINE. BLAINE. HE NEEDS JUSTICE, SE.

Just because his name doesn't have a particular meaning or connection to an existing character doesn't mean you can mess it up D:

It's not as bad for Ephemera, but it entirely changes the way I would pronounce the name and it's just wrong. D:
Brain...Oh my god no. I swear someone at SE HQ is laughing their ass of because the "Pinky and the Brain" allusions are EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANTED TO PUT US THROUGH.

>>> months ago, Blaine at [strike]Pokemon[/strike] KH Name Rater
Name Rater: Hello, hello! I am the official NAME RATER.
Name Rater: I see it in your eyes - you don't have a name, but desire to have one.
Name Rater: Say, are you connected to some other KH character as of now?
Blaine: *drinking cheap alcohol and sobbing* just f*ck me up

Gotta say, those Ducktales medals look terrible...

Nice to hear there are new Story Missions tho, that's great (you know, right up to the point where

Strelitzia gets killed).

So what we gonna do about Brain? Gonna ask SENA to change it back to Blaine in the next survey they give us?

ohmygoshyouevenreplacedthespoon
I'll never be able to look at my favourite sour cherry strudel the same again

Seriously though, why is this scene missing SFX? Did they think it would be too graphic for us? Did they want to leave Strelitzia's death ambiguous? Did they make a mistake and let it slip accidentally? o___O

You slay me. Get it? Slay~?

I'll show myself out.


light - “Strelitzia… Sorry… I couldn’t protect you…”...


Think of it this way, now we can add whatever sound effects we want!

Oh yeah, that reminds me...since they're sticking with Brain as his name, should I dig up that Pinky and the Brain remix I wrote for Blaine and Lauriam so that one user who said they'd make it their sig can do so? I forget who said that, but might as well let it come full circle.

Also, I called it on the Ducktales medals. https://twitter.com/kh_ux_na/status/951665041719398407

Tier 7.. one per pull... ONLY 1500 JEWELS. Hmmm. I’m so excited to know what they’ll do! Maybe they’ll be stronger the more Munny you have? :0

Lmao I'd be indestructable.

Thanks, lol.

Yeah, I also have some episodes on DVD but sadly not all 100 of them.

It's probably a case of gameplay and story segregation, since as Darkos says things like medals depicting Ventus would probably cause a much bigger uproar and confusion if all the medals are 100% in-universe canon.




They really have to "reboot" and "remake" everything these days, huh?

My, my, sorry but that art style is really off putting to me and why the heck is Donald there?
The entire premise of Ducktales was that the nephews are going to live with Scrooge because Donald signed up for the Navy and was stationed on an aircraft carrier, with him only appearing in three or four episodes as a guest.



Indeeeed, I've said that ever since Ven was introduced into this mess.



Full Agreement.



Seconded, "Brain" makes me uncomfortable due to always either thinking of "Pinky and the Brain" or Zombies from the old movies of the 80's.



Pffft, how fitting.
One can also shorten Skuld to Skul then add another l for "Skull", as in Bulk and Skull from Power Rangers.
Only question remains who would be X[chi]'s "Bulk".

Or just mistranslate her as Strulla, which in german can have some icky implications.

Lauriam could become Lavendel or something.



Why do I suddenly think of a farting sound or a big "HOONK" from an old car's horn?

If you watched the pilot instead of judging the media without understand it, you’d know the reasons why the Nephews are with Scrooge and why Donald is [strike]sometimes[/strike] around. Donald has only been in like three episodes over the first nine anyways.
