LOL, I love how more news of KH3 has surfaced...but Final Fantasy XV is still pretty quiet.

Still hoping for a Marvel Comics-themed world with Deadpool snarking over everything or a Muppets-themed world with Statler and Waldorf snarking over everything.

It's worth a shot. There's some questionable game design and the story remains a clusterfuck, but it's still enjoyable none the less if you're a fan of the combat of the previous titles.

I found it enjoyable enough. The Drop system can be a bit of a nuisance, especially if you're wrapping up a particularly long boss battle and you suddenly get switched to the other character (there's an item you can use to delay a drop, so you gotta train yourself to always have them handy).
I haven't played BBS so I can't really comment on the battle system in this one versus that one.

Who are the final five Cylons 7/13 Light/Darknesses? Find out in the thrilling conclusion of Battlestar Galactica Kingdom Hearts!
Its worth playing if you want to watch the story unfold rather than reading a description of it.

No. It's just a plot point. Donald and Goofy are confirmed party members and do not count to that number in the story (yet anyway...)

There will be seven heroes of the Keyblade, but not necessarily seven party members.
King Mickey is almost definitely one of the seven, alongside Sora, Riku, Kairi and a few other obvious ones.
Most relevant thread in Gaf's history.
Well... you can count on three of the four you named.

Dark Kairi.
Also Dark Chip. But not Dale.

There is a lot of info on FFXV out in the wild. TBH a bit too much, best for them to not trickle out too much more until release marketing starts.
No, Nomura already said that the next games would star Sora. Although, I have wondered if KH3 will start with someone other than him. I say that because in KH1, you sit through the intro and at the end of it all, Sora floats down onto that circular platform (Pictured with Snow White, I believe) and the game starts there. You go through a tutorial and choose the Sword, Staff or Shield.
In KH2, at the end of the intro, Roxas lands on his own circular platform, this time picturing Sora. So, for KH3, is there going to be a new KH wielder that you start with and what circular platform will he/she land on? or are they just going to get rid of that pattern for the roman numeral games?

To be fair, 2 does not denote a pattern.
I feel like I've heard this before, but I can't seem to find an interview that states it.
I did find this old one though which has a lot of good info: http://www.khinsider.com/news/Conversation-with-Creators-Tetsuya-Nomura-Interview-3449
Ah, I could've sworn he mentioned that the new saga would introduce a new hero. I'm probably mixing that up with introducing a new villain since this is after all the "Xehanort Saga". If they're going to keep using Sora, I wonder how long Haley Joel Osment will keep with it. He doesn't do much of anything anymore does he?

You might want to spoiler tag that.
I'm wondering this as well.. I adore KH 1 and 2, but couldn't get into the PSP or DS games. If DDD is part of the main plot and leads into KH3, maybe I should look into playing it.

Denote or not, I just wanna know if they'll have a new character float down onto a new platform. They did it twice already. I'm "expecting" a third time.
Idk, but it'd be strange to hear someone else voice him.
EDIT:
How?

well considering this is Nomura, anything is possible. He can come back due to some gimmick. I mean, when a nobody and heartless are destroyed, the human comes back. So I could see Roxas coming back and co-existing with Sora. Just a theory.

Terra(probably as Terra-Nort) is more likely to be on the darkness side since Xehanort is still in possession of his heart/body.
Also you forgot

Terra will be still possessed in some way may for the other side.

I must be missing something here. I haven't played DDD yet, but I did watch GT's KH Timeline and don't remember anything significant happening to him.
Disregarding Nomura and his creative storytelling powers, based off of what we know "now", I just don't see Roxas coming back, unless of course he somehow splits with Sora again (which would cut Sora's power in half, would it not?). And yes., indeed a human comes back when a heartless and nobody are destroyed, but in this case, Roxas IS the nobody. That rule doesn't benefit him at all.
What's unjustified about hype for KH3?
the human comes back, not the nobody. roxas IS the nobody. sora is the human. hes already back...

We shall see!
I didn't play DDD, so you both have an ideal theory.
That we know jack about it, it'll all change because it's a clusterfuck, and we're seeing it christmas 2015 if we're lucky.
