I've maintained for a while that KH2's basic framework for melee characters (as seen in Roxas, Sora, each Sora form, Mickey, and Riku, but *also* with Sephiroth and every sort member and boss-Roxas, cloaked Riku-Ansem, and a bunch of the human-sized Disney bosses) would easily allow them to be playable in multiplayer; they've basically all got basic combos, combo finishers, air recovery, air counter, and so on. None of them have regular Sora's full immense moveset, but they all share the same fundamental framework (except they've got Revenge-driven supermoves and Sora doesn't). Wouldn't be impossible to take their existing movesets and make them playable, and from there to balance them properly for cooperative or competitive multiplayer.
It'd be especially cool, IMO, to take those Revenge moves and turn them into consume-all-your-MP moves just like the Limit attacks and Cure spell. I think that'd be a reasonable starting point from which to balance them

I'd be okay with a MP mode, as long as Mickey is the announcer.

Happy 15th anniversary.
Not quite yet, at least not over here. I wonder if they'll announce something special

We live in the future over here. I'm sure they will announce upcoming summer announcements, please be excited.
Announced too early, celebration details won't be ready for two months.

Feel like the screenshot is too generous make it an interview where they answer nothing
It will be 80% blacked out and show a world we've already seen.

Finally completed 2.8, I was hoping to get answers but all I got was even more questions specially about
And it made me hate more the fact that I can't play Unchaned X because it is not on my country, now adding even more salt with the release of Union X
Luxu, No name and the Black box

Unchained isn't that great, I thought it would be funner to play it then watch it , but it's really one of the few games where I'll say you miss nothing whether you play or not.

A friend is always asking me to play it so I assumed it was super fun, but I would have to deal with apk, updates and all of that and I'm super noob with those things.
It still seems there is so much to the story that I would be missing.

The combat system is as deep as a puddle, the first 300-400 quests have almost no story ( currently on quest 500 something on Western release. You do need to read up/watch the story, my point was you don't need to play the game to experience it to the fullest ,since it doesn't add much to the experience. Back cover had more story than the english version of unchained chi. I don't like watching other people play games or reading up on them which is why I still play(on top of already completing the ~400 mission intital grind before the story actually stars moving), but I have no qualms with suggesting other people do it since the game is pretty simple unless you delve into the competitive part of it , which will cost you money.

It's a relief to know that now, thanks for the info, then just research story from wiki and such should do the trick too.
It's too damn long, man. I'm still only a couple hundred missions into Unchained

Igor one of the 13 confirmed
All I hear in MK 9 and MK X when Raiden talks is Terranort.

so next chi update is gonna tell us who the 4th new union leader will be
I guess they wouldn't be playing it up if it wasn't a familiar face. And Ven's existence blows the field wide open, they can literally use anyone from the present time and convince us it's totally possible with some of that KH secret sauce mumbo jumbo.
oh wow they... actually tried to get permission to use SE's intellectual rights directly from their PR department and somehow convinced themselves that was a good idea...
They made a rookie mistake and let a reddit thread scare them.
Ventus is in Chi now? Hmm, I've missed a lot and am confused as hell.
Making the same game twice with minor changes with both being canon in different parts of the universe and being constantly updated doesn't help.
Remind me why
we're repeating the whole adventure from the beginning if only the part after turning down Ava was a dream?

omg they even use roxas theme during that cutscene
it's happening isn't it?
it's happening isn't it?
To be fair, Ventus' past was always kind of mysterious (I mean, I don't remember if it was ever explained how he came to be with Xehanort and why exactly he's such a special little snowflake) so it's not too much of an ass-pull to have him actually have a past beyond being taken advantage of by Master Xehanort in BBS and to have him have such a huge connection to the Keyblade War/what comes after it, that kind of fits with Xehanort's obsession with the war and maybe gives a bit more reason for him to be considered such a special keyblade wielder.
Yeah it's been left vague enough that it fits. Still not sure how I feel about him being a leader though, would have been nicer if he was just one of dandilions that made it to the next world and you met him once on a mission or something rather than making him super important to Unions story by being one of the new leaders.
I'd doubt Nomura planned this stuff out back when 2FM and BBS cameout though, it's just a happy coincidence and the gaps are left open enough that it fits in i'd say.
Before I saw him up close I thought he looked like Ardyn which gave me a chuckle considering how Nomura tends to include subtle Versus infleunces in other works.
With that said though
I'd doubt its a coincidence that he looks like him and carries around a book
