Didn't know your investment in this 2017 (probably) game was hinging on getting a new trailer right now. I'm pretty damn disappointed that they're not making the extended trailer public, but this seems a little extreme.

The irony is that 3D, BBS, and [chi] are a degree of magnitude more important than any of the other games in the series.

Is there a game in the series that*isn't* vital to the overall storyline?
I'd say RE:Coded is the most irrelevant, but even its initial concept and last 15-30 minutes are "required reading."

Haha, I've certainly noticed that from what people talk about. Which is all the more reason to be sure that I can focus on them without having class work interrupting or distracting me.

Yes this is all disney. Let's all forget that SE got on a stage to announce a PC port of Final Fantasy VII.
The name Goat Key is just a reference to the goat motif of the desing of the keyblade. It is used by the ultimate villain of the franchise (so far). Its importance is in that Master Xehanort uses it. No need to get your panties in a bunch because of it.
If someone loses themselves to darkness, they become a Heartless and leave behind an "empty" shell that is called a Nobody. That someone with strong feelings & ties to a person can pull them back from that darkness is fairly simple and, frankly, cliche story element that is used in stories other than just Kingdom Hearts. Most recently, Ant-Man used a fairly similar plot device.
That a dream realm has enemies called Dream Eaters isn't horriby confusing, is it?
Never said that ALL of KH is super straightforward, just that it was silly to start crying about simple concepts like a "group of good vs a group of evil" or a keyblade with a goat motif that the villain uses being incomprehensible. There are some silly things in KH and the quality of writing is quite low, but overall the storyline isn't all that incomprehensible or complex, considering there's over a decade worth of story. Of course if you try to condense the story into two sentences, you can make anything that has dozens of hours worth of story sound incomprehensible.
I don't see how the concept of a Heartless (kind of like a soul consumed by darkness that turns that soul into a creature that starts yearning for other souls/hearts) or Nobodies (the body left behind without a soul/heart) are all that incomprehensible concepts. They aren't usually wholly different "versions" of the characters. Most of the Org XIII members are the same as their "complete" human forms, except they do (even more) evil stuff as part of Xemnas' ploy because they think they can turn back into complete humans that way (though some of the members have plans of their own). Roxas & Namine are pretty much the only exceptions for that and there are fairly easily explained reasons for that.
Kingdom Hearts just kind of seems like the Ultimate Power in the universe. If one can "obtain" or harness its power, one probably becomes a god-like entity who has very little limits in what he/she can do. Again, a fairly generic concept in a lot of fantasy fiction where you need to stop the villain from attaining such ultimate power that would make then unstoppable & throw the world/universe into chaos & destruction.

THEY PLAYED US LIKE A DAMN FIDDLE!!!
Right....we'll see you in the next KH and FFXV thread.
Oh please, what a drama queen
Simmer down ya hothead
I don't remember people having this much issues with Sora "housing" Kairi's heart back in the KH1 days. Hearts are basically the souls of the KH universe, not things that pump blood to the rest of the body, and it's not like KH is the first piece of fiction ever to use such a concept, though it does have a bit more focus on it & plays around with the concepts more than a lot of other stories. It was made a bit more complex by the existence of Namine and Ven's heart being inside Sora as well, but she's a very special case in all of KH and even she can be fairly easily explained with only a little bit of bending the rules of how Heartless & Nobodies form

I dunno, kh3 has made 1 proper appearance at a gaming event so far while its been at 4 d23's. showing something new every time.
way too much focus is being put on attraction flow which is basically disneyland advertisement at this point.
Its being pushed as a disney entity for more than any others before it.

If only they could've just kept the same complete style and just upgraded it, now the characters look alittle more real as people when they really shouldn't. Even mickey is some weird smoothed old cartoon that looks like it had no detail put into it.
I mean you can notice the obvious cartooniness of the models before but now its alittle to smoothed out and weird.

Smaller heads lol.
Also, holy shit that upgrade on the scenario =X
Mickey looks more like movie Mickey than KH Mickey... But I guess that's what they were going for...
Just comparing the two, holy shit, there's an actual lighting system in place on the 0.2 shot as opposed to just static nothing like the original PS2 engine graphics always have had.
I think it looks pretty good personally as an upgrade. Bad shots be damned, the models look solid IMO

This is what I was getting at before.
I think the problem is that the lighting isn't very good. The shots that are more affected by lighting don't look as good in most of the KH3 stuff so far.

I don't think it's complicated to upload a 1080p MP4 video to YouTube. You literally just drag and drop

hmm i dont know, that screenshoot does not look impressive, KH3D models look fine even if the environment looks less detailed
Eh, bad shots will sometimes happen with lighting that changes depending on the scene.
I would not worry about it personally speaking, we'll see more of the game soon enough, and people will have time to get used to the visuals
Such a lust for a new KH3 trailer

Riku and Kairi looks fine. Micky .... not so much.

Ah, I missed the part where they said there was apparently no actual source and someone seemingly pulled the time out from their ass. Oh wellz, I reckon we still get it at some point this week.

I could see them waiting until PSX in December to show it off. I'd prefer we get it within a week or so, but I'll take what I can get.

I'm guessing it will go live sometime this week. Maybe tomorrow since the D23 2013 trailer went live 2 days after the event.

Square doesn't upload KH videos on their channel, so I'm guessing on the Disney Games channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/DisneyVideoGames/videos), or try the KH channel too (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCyrXyelKeXFx5KDgldMmNw/videos).
But it probably will not go live in 20 minutes lol. That was miscommunication from the people reporting it.
Still, it's 20 minutes, might as well check it.

I don't know about Mickey. He looks like that photo negative costume that's really creepy.
