No excuse if they didn't. Between what is possible on the PS3 and PS4 plus not to mention the size of those Blu-Ray discs
I've gotten so used to it, I automatically assume it's n-f when I see a new avatar.

I don't get what you guys are complaining about.

Don't call them to help you, it will make the counter drop instead of helping you. Cast Aeroga on Sora only and use Ragnarok instead of Last Arcanum. You can do about 2 air combos of 3 or 4 hits between each Ragnarok.
Toss items at him. Better items equal better chances of getting his drop. I always toss elixirs because it's a guaranteed drop. The problem is aiming. I always waste a LOT of items on him because he dissappears right when I confirm and it goes to Goofy...
Really? I saw a couple guides that say call dolan and gooby.
But its problematic not to in HD btw, because calling them is triangle, but ars/ragnarok are triangle also because they moved those type of moves to be reaction commands. Which for the most part is awesome, but is now seeming problematic.
Do you at what point it stops counting hits? Is it right when it starts giving you the techs?

Hm... maybe they changed it? I hope so.
The hits stop counting when Stop wears off and he starts deflecting every hit.

FINE I won't change it ever again then
. Why must you all hate me ;_;I just checked the calendar and indeed, still 6ish months till western release. What a joy.
Hopefully they changed it.
So if your attacks are still meshing with him its counting? Or not necessarily.

As long as he doens't push you back, it's good to go. The one thing I'm not sure is whether the Aeroga hits count after Stop wears off. Probably not.
For those wondering what's the deal with the heartless:
Giant Shadow - Disappear when they hit you.
Sniper Wild - You need to kill 6+ of them without being seen.
Black Ballade - You need to play a shell game, picking the right one when they shuffle.
Stealth Soldier - Invisible super fast Soldier that hits hard. You can make them visible by casting Stop, but it wears off in a second.
Chimaera - Keeps summoning Gargoyles and jumping around, you need to stun it and keep him from getting up by hitting the floating balls of light he spews when he is down.
Grand Ghost - Can only be defeated by throwing healing items at him, but he disappears all the time, messing with your aiming menu.
Pot Scorpion - Can only be hit after you defend against his tail sting, which he only does after spraying poison all over the place.
Jet Balloon - You need to pursue it around the ship, impossible without Aeroga because of the hundreds or torpedoes he fires.
Pink Agaricus - Stop minigame we've been talking about in the last few posts.
NeoShadow - You need to fight about 6 of them at the same time, they hit hard, teleport around and fully heal nearby enemies when defeated.
Sniper Wild - You need to kill 6+ of them without being seen.
Black Ballade - You need to play a shell game, picking the right one when they shuffle.

Why? Why do they do this? Is it some kind of cruel joke?

17 days my friend! In 17 days, you'll join the elite group of Members.
NOT SOON ENOUGH. >:'(
Of course not. I think I played through KH1 and KH2 both two or three times last year. I think it was KH1 twice and KH2 thrice.

I always do the KH 2 Final Battle 2 times a year.
Last year one was with no abilities and the other one was with the Sweet Memories Keyblade.

You change it as much as your heart wills it.

Go for Sword in your other playthru and Staff for the 1.5 playthru :3. Also Play 1.5 in proud mode with EXP 0 equipped for a whole new experience! :3
Wanna bet KH4 releases like 1 year after KH3 just to troll us.
Can someone tell me how Atlus can localize SMT4 in one month and SE takes 6+ months for a game that is 99% localized already -.-
Byronic Hero

Atlus is cool.
Square Enix isn't.
But seriously, if it doesn't have "Final Fantasy" in the title, Square won't make it a priority.

KH is bigger in the west than Japan *sigh*
I mean SE seems so friggin random with the localization times. They were terrible last gen but this gen they have a range from really fast localization to ridicilous shit like this
At... who? Never heard of them. Do they make games or something?
Seriously, though, Square-Enix are great because they at least DO localize their own games for the west. Something Atlus can't be said to do. Square-Enix has Altus beat several times over in localization speed. Not that "never" is hard to beat.
Do note I said "the west" which also includes Europe here.

Well you'd HOPE company as big as SE would localize games in EU without too much outside help
.It just annoys me how some PSP games like 3rd birthday were out in Americas+EU in like 3 months and with all sorts of collectors edition boons no less. I can just imagine them being like ''PSP is dying so we need to actually put some effort into this, dat PS3 will be alive a year from now anyway!''
But not to be all negative SE has reached pretty much parity with US-EU releases now. Last gen was TEE HEE HERRIBLE.

Man all the charm from FFX is lost since Tidus isn't living on the moon anymore
.I was literally shocked when I saw my own KH2 PAL copy running when my friend borrowed it, felt like the framerate was cut in half or something. I actually bought it just in case since my fat PS2 that I had Swap Magic for is slowly dying. I played the US import first (cause fuck the wait for september or whenever KH2 was released in EU =/ ) and later on the final mix+. Then I just played them on emulator and never touched my own PAL copy and I didn't realize it was that bad :lol.
It is strange since I honestly have no problem with any of the 50hz games cause I got so used to them (with maybe the exeption of FF9 that is slow as shit anyway). I have no prob playing PAL KH1 or FFX or anything but I was in shock seeing PAL KH2 after US and JP versions :lol.

The difference in KH2 is huge going from US/FM version to PAL.
I imported KH2FM+ way back when, but never really noticed the difference. I guess I just wasn't paying good enough attention/time between playing the two was so long I didn't even remember.
Or I simply was stupid.
The milestone in SE PAL localizations is Final Fantasy XII, if I remember right. That game also ran at 50Hz, but... They did it right. The game was changed so it ran at the normal speed just with ten skipped frames every second. Well, five skipped frames, as it might be. That was pretty much the gold standard, most games just had a 60Hz option.
It happened pretty much at the same time as Squaresoft merged with Enix. Square-Enix is a much better localizer than Squaresoft ever were.
Of course, this all became a moot point with the HD generation. 480p, 720p, and even 1080p are all the same worldwide. Just target one or more of those and the game will run the same. It's the one thing I like the most about the HD generation, really, no sloppy PAL ports, because PAL and NTSC are both outdated in video games now.

Region locking is the devil. I can't believe it's even still a thing, no reasoning is good enough to defend that bullshit.

Finally got to see that interview where Nomutra said he crammed infinite-walljump-abuse FlowMotion into KHDD over the protestations of the Osaka Team who correctly pointed out that it destroys the level design and said that it's the future of the KH series.
Ugh, it makes so much more sense. I knew the Osaka team was better at game design than that.

Not Reggies problem.
If flowmotion comes back it should be fast traversal only without any jumping boosting or even just put it as a skill on some drive form/limit break thingy.
I don't remember using it much after traverse town anyway when not needed.

That really does explain a lot.
Wouldn't be surprised if it was his decision it was to scale back on the battle system mechanics in favor of the Dream Eater stuff. Even Re:Coded of all things had a better battle system than 3D for fuck's sake.
