Pittsburgh Lambic posted:In terms of story, Chain of Memories remains my favorite game in the series. The story is self-contained and doesn't need knowledge of the rest of the series to be understandable, and the setting is downright terrifying. I'm going to quote this post just in case you look back on it later and realize you're overthinking it. It's Disney Jesus entering a Nomura land with Nomura characters and beating up cute little Disney monsters with Disney pals, and any story it has is something that edgelord "I want the villain to win" Nomura just threw in without much thought put into it other than "do I think it's cool?"

That is not at all the Organization's mission, but OK, whatever weirdo.

The problem with that idea is that the soul is explicitly mentioned in Ansem the Wise's Reports. It's one of the three components of a being. The body, the heart, the soul, and losing any one or more of them makes something bad happen to you.

Honestly, the Hundred Acre Woods are unironically consistently my most favorite worlds in the Kingdom Hearts series, and I go back and forth on whether I'd like for them to return for KH3. I think for me personally the Hundred Acre Woods resonates really strongly with my own childhood, where if I remember correctly (I may not be mind you) my first story I was able to read on my own was a modern adaptation of a Winnie the Pooh story. I just really enjoy the innocent nature of the world throughout the games it has shown up in and how it's mostly all harmless fun minigames. Unfortunately I don't think the nature of the Hundred Acre Woods has much of a place in whatever new KH games Square makes now, but that's alright, I like them fine and the way the world ends in every game it shows up in is a good finish where if it didn't show up again it would be understandable and reasonable.

Also Firaga Burst is an extremely powerful Sleight that just nukes the whole screen pretty much. Magic in general in this game is super good for farming enemies for Moogle Points, EXP, or whatever because stuff like Firaga Burst just wipes them out. The only things Firaga Burst won't consistently one shot are things that either nullify or absorb fire and some of the enemies on the final floor. The painful thing about trying to grind though is the same problem as everything else in this game. It's reliant on RNG whether you get the magic cards you need to make farming easier, and to do that you need to, of course, farm some more. Also because IIRC all the good crowd control magic sleights, which I think there are two others, one of wind and one of thunder??? I don't know, it's been a while since I've played Re:CoM, are all locked away behind chests and secret rooms I think later on. Firaga Burst is probably the easiest one to get since Rabbit just gives you this ultimate hell fire spell.

In the GBA fight I was legitimately stymied on Hook for a long while because RNG had been very bad to me. And I mean extremely bad. I finished that game with a deck comprised of nothing but Kingdom Key attack cards because very little else would drop for me.

I think ChorpSaway's "Oh my God, he's beautiful." is one of the best lines he has ever said.

I am almost certain Lethal Frame did not exist in the GBA version.

In the GBA version Riku 4 and Larxene 2 were so hard for me that I actually quit the game the first time I played it. They were brutal.

I somehow beat Marluxia first try on the GBA version, but I died to him in this version 3 times because he kept dodging Lethal Frame by teleporting and I just wound up wasting all my sleights. For reference, I'm fairly certain the GBA fight was harder. Really, that goes for nearly all the fights, having access to a larger 3-d plane makes many of the fights in Re:CoM easier than its GBA original.

Marluxia's final form was in the GBA version, you're thinking of the second phase, which is Re:CoM exclusive. Also his final form is hilariously easy. I actually didn't see half of his attacks because I was using a Lethal Frame card build and just exploded him basically within 2-3 minutes. Another thing to note is all the Organization members have a specific "element" that they can use and control. Marluxia's, from my memory, is "Flowers". He's such a stupid head. I can't wait for KH3 to replace the theme with something different at LAST I'M SO SICK OF SIMPLE AND CLEAN I'M CLEAN AND SIMPLE ENOUGH KINGDOM HEARTS I'M SQUEAKY CLEAN. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

It's probably for the best that you're skipping most of the Disney worlds, because Riku has some really bad world decks.

Lex's fight is one of my favorites in both this game and the original. There's something about it I really dig.

I compeltely forgot that Zexion's reaction to hearing that Riku iced Lexaeus and Sora killed Marluxia was "yeah, I got this." Like, come on dude, what are you even thinking.
