critical mode is the new difficulty they added in FM, right?

How hard is it?

 

[Tsunamo]

It's a Critical Mode speedrun at that, too. Dude's already at Olympus Coliseum. Didn't know killing off Sora immediately and having Mickey take over was a legit speedrun strat for beating Cerberus.

Thanks. Speedrun should be a fun watch.
And oh god I think that's the exact same DDD streamer with the doki doki bot that read everything out from chat and hated Westerners so banned them from the stream.

Just like old times I guess :lol

Yup.

It's difficult but I wouldn't say it's unbalanced or cheap. I had the same trouble on boss battles I did before (Xaldin always gives me trouble, i've got the hang of Xigbar now though) and that was about it for Critical minus getting to the Cavern of Rememberance.

Ok. Is there things you can only unlock by playing Critical mode?

I remember back in KH2 it was easier to unlock the secret ending by playing proud mode.

I don't intend on getting platinum so I might skip critical mode unless there is something significant.

Same deal this time around. Beating it on Critical unlocks the secret ending easier.

merely clearing the game i believe gets you the secret ending, unless it was also get all journal entries.

damn that means I have to collect those journals if I want to watch the secrete ending in Proud mode?

 

[iosefe]

the music is nice, a streamer is at the beauty and the beast level, the world music feels more legato, and i really like it

 

[Tsunamo]

I'm quite impressed at the speedrunners skill. I mean it's no suprise they're good but they pull off some good combos on bosses.

 

[Caladrius]

In order to get the BBS video at the end I think you need to complete Jiminy's journal and earn the Gold Crown on Proud. Critical just requires the Gold crown (all data replicas, Mushrooms and Terra)

(In case any lurkers might be wondering, standard players [lol] also have to complete all the gummi missions on top of the Journal and Gold Crown.)

the guy is rather behind, but it's still damn impressive

*edit* chicken little trick. i would never have thought of it

Seems obvious in hindsight. Lot of time wasted on having to chase some enemies down.

i didn't really use anyone but genie when i first plays KH2.

 

[Tsunamo]

Non-botched He's a Pirate sounds great.

You're not alone there.

Edit: You weren't kidding Seven, new Vim and Vigor sounds amazing.

 

[Psxphile]

Y'know, the concept of Heartless and Nobodies having ships and infesting the paths of space between worlds still seems kinda strange to me. It was odd in KH1 and its doubly odd here. Makes great cannon fodder, though.

EDIT: using Chicken Little to drag those scurvy ghost pirates into the moonlight... holy shit why did I never do this!?

EDIT: omg the battle track

 

[iosefe]

Non-botched He's a Pirate sounds great..

Falk made us proud

 

[Tsunamo]

Falk made us proud

I always believed he would.

Spoiler

He's just gotta make good on the new version of Darkness of The Unknown now

 

[iosefe]

don't forget a fight to the death

 

[Tsunamo]

Oh yes. That whole Final Boss segment is gonna make me go crazy. Those two fantastic tracks redone and it being in HD? Gonna be amazing.

 

[Perfect Cha0s]

New Gummi Ship music?

Oh hell yes.

 

[iosefe]

friggin love the Ancient highway music

 

[Tsunamo]

There's a whole lot more rocking going on this time, makes it sound even better though.

 

[iosefe]

i can't remember if the song changed a bit for Broken Highway

*EDIT* seems not

 

[Psxphile]

Hm, streamer hasn't changed keyblades since beating Olympus Coliseum. Hero's Crest too stronk.

 

[Tsunamo]

It's so nice to see Halloween town again.

Spoiler

Even if I was there a couple of weeks ago in Re:CoM

Edit: oh lord, that new happy holidays

 

[Psxphile]

dat flute

man, fuck those jack-in-the-boxes

It's so pretty, but he keeps entering cutscenes before we can actually hear it. lol

 

[wmlk]

You guys seriously need to hear the new Lazy Afternoons.

 

[Tsunamo]

man, fuck those jack-in-the-boxes

Forever the most annoying heartless enemys.

Yeah. One sucky thing about him/her doing a speedrun

You guys seriously need to hear the new Lazy Afternoons.

I have and it's great. I still love the Re:CoM version best though.

 

[iosefe]

i was never a fan of any of the oogie battles. to damn tedious

*edit* lazy afternoons get

 

[Tsunamo]

Looks like the English folks have started hoarding the stream.
Only a matter of time before they end up getting theirselves banned lol

i was never a fan of any of the oogie battles. to damn tedious

I didn't mind the Re:CoM one, once you understand how it works it's simple compared to the one in the original.

 

[Psxphile]

Limit Form get.

Here comes 1000 Heartless.

EDIT: damn, still using Hero's Crest after getting Oathkeeper?

EDIT: oh right, Space Paranoids first

 

[Tsunamo]

It's finally time to enter The Grid.

 

[iosefe]

geez, more tactics i wouldn't think of. wall hugging and such

 

[Tsunamo]

I'd love to see them attempt a level 1 Critical Mode speedrun.

 

[iosefe]

jeebus crispies that level gain

 

[Tsunamo]

Using Donalds Limit was a really good save there.

Edit: Almost time for The Battle of 1000 Heartless

Edit 2: Holy shit at that Demyx battle, got owned.

 

[Psxphile]

DANCE WATER DANCE
EDIT: HOLY FUCK HE BEAT DEMYX SO FAST HE DIDN'T EVEN GET TO DO IT TWICE.

 

[Tsunamo]

Seeing the gang again from Radient Garden makes me sad we haven't really seen them since KH2 (proper anyway, not data versions)

It'll be great when they finally bring them back in 3.

 

[aravuus]

What are you people watching?

 

[Psxphile]

I hated that when you get Goofy back you have to reequip his gear and abilities again. Always fucked me up.


edit: lol kingdom hearts musou

I don't recall that. I probably would have forgotten to if you hadn't mentioned it.

Edit: I'd play a Kingdom Hearts Musou honestly, would fit in well with the series. Same goes for Theatrythm Kingdom Hearts

 

[Psxphile]

Nico stream of KH II.5 remix


EDIT: welp, here comes the part where you have to redo the worlds again.

 

[iosefe]

edit: lol kingdom hearts musou

i would buy the shit out of that if it gave us proper justice to the 1000 heartless battle, with Behemoths and shit

If Dragon Quest Heroes does well, we just might see it someday. Imagine Aqua in the Realm of Darkness completely flanked by Purebloods and owning their shit. FUCK. YEAH.

edit: oh good, streamer switched to the Rumbling Roses keychain.

Thanks, I actually saw this page earlier already but didn't realize I apparently have to register to actually see the stream

Fuck yes. I think I've posted about a KH musou earlier too.

 

[Tsunamo]

It's pretty easy to register if you do so from the English site and just link it with facebook. One click logins from there basically.

 

[Psxphile]

I remember thinking the Undead Heartless boss was a pain in the ass because of the coins. Took me a while to realize that magic was key to making him drop what he's got.

 

[Tsunamo]

There's another stream now, think i'll stick to this one though. I mean they're almost done with 2 Final Mix anyway.

You're not the only one. Felt silly when I finally realized what the problem was.

 

[Psxphile]

That second one is so much better quality, but yeah. I'll keep watching the speedrunner. I'm learning shit as I go.

EDIT: FUUUUCK THIS MINIGAME
