Oh no... Oh no... I promised myself I wouldn't spoil myself on the opening CGI... Oh god, it's right there...
Maybe if I watch wih my eyes closed so I just know what the Don't Think Twice remix will be like...
EDIT: I am weak. Take me now.
Oh what? They wrote a completely original song for the opening movie this time? Skrillex?
They're really going all guns blazing producing this game.
That...was amazing. What a great concept and execution. Incredible visual storytelling.
It really drives home how the villians have technically "won" every game in the series and the different plots have, all this time, been steadily drawing closer to each other for this climax.

Because it was already known in Dream Drop Distance.

you.
Where? To be truthful, I haven't play DDD at all due to the game not being avaliable in my language
. I did see some videos about that, but it wasn't explained clearly to me......

The trailer looks awesome, but that is some truly awful music. It sounds like it's straight off of Katy Perry's Prism album.

skip near the end, and master Sid said "I have come to learn that you, too can wield a Keyblade" to Kairi

What! Looks like I have slight catching up to do.
I'm very surprised the secret ending is actually canon, I mean they're usually not canon....
She really looks badass now. Who knows, maybe she can be playable, maybe not.

Most all everything in Kingdom Hearts is canon and also we saw Kairi wielding Keyblade in Kingdom Hearts 2.

Wasn't that moment only brief, though? It almost seems like something that would be revealed in KH3.
Thanks for the information about DDD though!

Not everyone can wield a keyblade. You either need to train to materialize it like Axel(Lea) did or it needs to pass down to you and common theory is Kairi gain the ability to wield a Keyblade when she touched Aqua's Keyblade in Birth By Sleep.

Damn, I really dislike it. Oh well....
I'm not a fan of that super erractic editing Visual Works has been utilizing these last few animations. I hardly have the chance to contemplate on any of the imagery and moments represented in the visual.
That music selection is interesting to say the least. Certainly could've featured a better suited track, but didn't particulary hate it.

Yeah, but the orchestral score from the trailer to the original Kingdom Hearts was waaaaay better. Amazing, even.

I highly suggest you play DDD. It is nearly required to understand anything that is going on in KH3.

Wow...
As a person who first discovred the serie playing the firs title in 2004 and has been waiting for the third main installment since 2006, I can't describe how letdown I am with KH3.
The more I see from this game, the less I get excited for it...The wait was too long I guess and my expectations were set way too high. The game is far lower than the perfect finish I had imagined in my head, both gameplay wise and storywise. Visuals look good though.
Now for this opening, I'll say it straight; this is a goddarn disgrace. A travesty in all of it's aspects; from the visuals (looks like they used the Unreal 4 In-Game shaders and Assets), the disjointed editing, the presentaion, the rhytm/pace as well as that nasty ''music'' they've put in place for it.
After waiting so many years, seeing this opening was like the final personal straw/attack on me.
I went back to cleanse my soul with the Original Japanese OP of KH2:
It's confirmed now. Kingdom Hearts peaked at Kingdom Hearts 2 (Final Mix). The serie never actually improved after this one.

Whats wrong with gameplay in KH3!!? The gameplay footage I have seen so far the gameplay looked pretty good and also don't see wrong with the story, you either like the way KH tells its story or you don't.Wow...

I would agree with you the story with kh has now reached it's climax and I feel like I can't quell my excitement this is literally a culmination of 9 games and so much lore that just after hearing the song it's enough for me to close my eyes and blindly trust that this game is going to be a 10.

I couldn't have said this any better this is every kh fan right now we are in such a surreal time with kh coming around the corner now.

Storywise, most people agree that everything made some sort of sense until KH3D came in , messed up the lore and brought the whole time travel and 13 clones bullcrap...let's not even talk about the senseless stuff they added with KH Chi and all the other side entries.
As for gameplay, it suffers from the Osaka effect; there are plentiful of videos on Youtube explaining it, further showing how BBS and 3DS gameplay are inherently inferior to that of KH2.
Kh2:
Fluid/Smooth Keyblade bashing with physics and amazing combos with actual weight to them, nice blend between physical attacks and tactical magic attacks (magnet), rewarding bosses with well-designed revenge system, quick reaction command system for swift finishing moves and smart cinematic action gmeplay, drive forms allowing multiples approach and strategy to every battle, party limits and summons .
Osaka Developped KH Games:
Broken revenge system, stiff and rigid keyblade bashing gameplay, no weight when fighting, overuse of visual effects and transformations to cover a poorly designed and weightless gameplay, messy parkour gameplay (attraction flow) with awful animations, I could go on forever.

But this isn't kh2 that has happened and passed I know comparison and all but I have faith in this game plus with the feed back they got from so many different panels and demos I think it will be fine. Yes the story has a problem now with time travel but it's not an issue as long as something's are explained properly in 3 and this game in my opinion is going to be perfect.

You guys also know that this is #1 trending on youtube

You guys rely on number score waaaay too much. Both RDR2 and God of War got lot 10/10 score but does that grantee everyone going to love the game? I enjoy games that got low metascore like original NiER and Catherine I personally don't give about what it score KHIII gets, from what I have seen so far the game will not disappoint me.
You seem ready to completely hate this game and I don't agree with you on gameplay at all. You seem to forget that BBS was made for PSP that only has one analog stick so gameplay is more simplified compare to KH2 and KH3 gameplay looks god damn epic to me. Again you already in a mind set of hating this game so you are going get disappointed no matter what.

It sounds like one of those shitty songs rabid fanboys put in their cheap youtube fanvideos of games like Kingdom Hearts. I only cringed more after listening the terrible Tekken 7 soundtrack.

I wasn't using the number to fully judge this game I just was saying in my books it's going to be a 10 no matter what I love this series.

Same, most trailer made me even more excited for game but I'm pretty sure most mainstream reviewers either only played KHI&II or never played any of previous series, so they will find story confusing.

Looks more like you came in to whine and hate on the game from the outset. BBS and 3DS were designed to work on the handhelds they released in, given they didn't have two functional analog sticks. If you had played the demo that arrived with the PS4 Collection, you would have seen that KH3 will play like KH2, but with smoother animations, better graphics, and faster movement options (flowmotion).

Really, mate? Attack on *you*? You are more than a wee bit narcissistic. The OP is fine. Looks like the same art direction the DDD had used and given the graphical leap, they could use models that look much closer to how they appear in the game over the clear differences in the previous entires.
Not yet, they've only announced the development end is completed.

But isn't same thing as game is gone gold? I don't think we going get separate announcement of the game is "gone gold" because they already announced that the development is complete.

Some developers like show off disc but some won’t. Heck some developers won’t even announce their game goes gold.
