2018 has always been reasonable. That's a completely sane and likely release year.

Oh for sure. I know it's easy to be pessimistic but

2016 = FFXV
2017 = Dragon Quest XI
2018 = Kingdom Hearts III

Makes a lot of sense to me and I think they can pull it off. It's what I've been betting on anyway.

 

[J@hranimo]

It's happening. 2 trailers in 2 months. Polished gameplay. Story. I'm shaking.

Nomura and Yasue have delivered and I'm breaking down.

Wait until you see this game running on PS5, whew it's gonna be crazy!

 

[The Lamp]

The graphics are still off as fuck. The lighting is so fucking bad/weird.

But OMG AT THE GAMEPLAY

 

[Farsi]

The rock titan boss battle looks waaaaaaay better than it did in the 1st trailer.

Take your time Nomura and company, this looks incredible. I'm very confident it'll be worth the agonizing wait.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Looks so goddamn good!

.

Is that James Woods speaking Japanese?

lol. Just hearing the Japanese voice made me say, "We better still have James Woods' Hades in English!" The Japanese voice for him sounds like a really good parallel.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

So how much of this will actually be in the game? Someone give me a percentage.

Nomura ain't Tabata.

 

[InfiniDragon]

Spoiler

Roxas died?

Been a while since I played KHII, but if I recall right,

Spoiler

Roxas and Namine were assimilated into Sora and Kairi because they were special versions of their Nobodies.

Guess Sora was like fuck that because he was his own person in his mind. Or he needs him for a specific purpose we don't know yet.

 

[Inuhanyou]

The part where Maleficent is talking to Hades

I see they still got that 'low res face' thing going on, where if a character isn't a focus in a scene, they dont' emote at all through facial expression.(Compare Maleficent talking with Hades talking and how their face moves.)

That was annoying in the previous KH games.

In this case, they are not 2D textures for faces, just not emoting. So not anywhere near the same thing

 

[Japanmanx3]

OMG OKG OM GOMG JFJXJNVJMZ FNXJJBTNXHMSJXJF

[Ray Down]

Quality of the game footage aside, am I the only one who thinks this was a really bad trailer? Like they just hastily cut up a bunch of B-roll from some footage they had lying around?

I mean that what is is, its B roll from the begining of the game.

 

[Caim]

.

 

[samar11]

Wow this game is still coming to xbox

 

[papertoonz]

so keyblade transformations are command styles

is the dream happening, are we getting a different transformation for each keybalde

 

[badcrumble]

Quality of the game footage aside, am I the only one who thinks this was a really bad trailer? Like they just hastily cut up a bunch of B-roll from some footage they had lying around?

I think it's a bad trailer in terms of editing but it's great in the sense that it shows that the game's combat system is something to be very excited about and that it is, for the first time, looking like a real game and not an alpha.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

holy shit!

 

[Blood Diamonds]

There's so much Dream Drop Distance in this game it seems. It makes me hopeful that Nomura will keep his promise and we really will get Shibuya in KH3.

 

[DNAbro]

The gameplay looks so good and this is literally just the first world.

 

[silva1991]

No gif for the very beginning of the trailer? GAF is slacking.

edit:

looks so good.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Why not release this trailer to the public at E3? Would have been so hype seeing it at a conference.

Usually these concerts get exclusive footage luckily this time around they decided to share it due to e3. Maybe Sony is quite crowded at the moment.

 

[Inuhanyou]

roxas coming back would be so cheap, but i expect it since they brought axel back on nothing but a technicality due to his popularity

 

[Rob2K19]

The R god, Norio Wakamoto, is back! AAAAAAAH!

*ahem* That trailer is perfect.

 

[Niks]

Looks great! So simple and clean!

 

[Ray Down]

The gameplay looks so good and this is literally just the first world.

Liertally from the last game secret movie.

 

[Toxi]

Ok, so that isn't just me. Either thans just James fucking Woods, or that is an EXCELLENT VO choice

It's definitely not the same guy from the previous games.

Quality of the game footage aside, am I the only one who thinks this was a really bad trailer? Like they just hastily cut up a bunch of B-roll from some footage they had lying around?

The scenes of the villains just standing around and talking are pretty shitty showcases.

 

[robotrock]

Do people really want Roxas back? Why?

Roxas owns. The KH2 beginning section is my favorite in the series.

 

[Dominic_Shade]

I'm ready for an eighth-generation lightsaber fight with Xemnas.

 

[Turin]

My bet:

Launch title for PS5. Nov 2019.

Spoiler

Hope it's sooner ;_;

Nah. It'll be out near the end of this gen.

FFVII on the other hand.......

 

[yencid]

lmao at having both ventus and roxas next to each other now.

 

[Aters]

Are Sony and MS conferences so staked they don't have room for this trailer?
Or SE is just being nice to the fans who go to their concert?

 

[Prompto]

The gameplay looks so good and this is literally just the first world.

I'm guessing they're using some late game abilities or something considering how big Sora's health bar is

 

[KeyBladerXIII]

Do people really want Roxas back? Why?

Because he's the best character besides Aqua.

And because

Spoiler

Lea

is already back and therefore they'll eventually need

Spoiler

Xion

back. Sora can't stop saving people.

 

[GunBR]

Finally a new trailer

But, being a Nomura game, we REALLY need a release date on the next one. Or at least a "Fall 2018"

 

[InfiniDragon]

roxas coming back would be so cheap, but i expect it since they brought axel back on nothing but a technicality due to his popularity

If it means we get Namine back too I'm down. Namine was best.

 

[AlexFlame116]

At least we got a new area of Olympus that doesn't include a Colosseum.

roxas coming back would be so cheap, but i expect it since they brought axel back on nothing but a technicality due to his popularity

Good. I like Roxas. Plus the dude needs a happy ending with Xion.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

roxas coming back would be so cheap, but i expect it since they brought axel back on nothing but a technicality due to his popularity

I think they're all coming back. I don't know how they're going to bring back

Spoiler

Terra

but it's going to happen since they're all loved by the fans. I can maybe see, like, Namine not coming back I guess.

 

[DangerMouse]

Looked absolutely gorgeous!

 

[Ray Down]

Do people really want Roxas back? Why?

Fan service .

 

[Durden77]

Fucking shit this looks good.

 

[c1d]

Wow this game is still coming to xbox

Exactly my thoughts when it flashed up at the end

 

[Megawarrior]

Interesting Hades and Maleficent are interacting.

Suppose we might see less restriction on the crossover aspect now?

I think Maleficent gained the power to cross worlds from Master Xehanort to gather the 7 princesses of light. She's the only one that can do it unfortunately.

 

[Slater]

roxas coming back would be so cheap, but i expect it since they brought axel back on nothing but a technicality due to his popularity

This is kingdom hearts, literally every character that should stay dead is gonna come back through retcon or other bullshit and you know it.

 

[papertoonz]

OMG THE KINGDOM KEY TRANSFORMATION TURNS SORA BACK INTO HIS KH2 DESIGN

IT'S LIKE LIMIT FORM

 

[Japanmanx3]

I'm crying gaf

 

[Hopeford]

That looks awesome and I can't wait to play it.

That said, Goofy's pose here looks hilarious from this angle.

 

[Farsi]

I'm guessing they're using some late game abilities or something considering how big Sora's health bar is

If I recall in 2.8 you were given more health depending on the difficulty. It could be that this is just a lower difficulty but you could be right absolutely.

 

[AlexFlame116]

I wonder how much Sora will dabble in

Spoiler

darkness

to save those he cares about.

Or will it be a The Last Jedi thing?

Nomura ain't Tabata.

He ain't a Lord either.

 

[Ray Down]

I'm guessing they're using some late game abilities or something considering how big Sora's health bar is

Yeah I think that's the case.
Don't think you will have all those moves at the start, unless they are revisiting it, but looking at Titian leg health I doubt it.

 

[Triforce141]

roxas coming back would be so cheap, but i expect it since they brought axel back on nothing but a technicality due to his popularity

Ventus and Roxas duo fights, who wouldn't want that?

 

[Risev1]

Anyone notice how character portraits change from exploration to battle? Go from smiling to all business.
