Yep, Nomura said it. This should have been the limited edition of 1.5+2.5 for us but I doubt it.

well he implied bundle package but this is just special case they give you when you buy 1.5+2.5 which is pretty cool for those who don't want to buy 2.8 again I guess.

Oh, I came into this thread to ask if there was a way to play the first two games on PS4. I've never played a Kingdom Hearts game and saw 2.8 on PSN and almost bought it.. but I want to start at the beginning. Now I now, thanks.
I'll have something to play in April after I've finished Breath of the Wild.
yea wait for 1.5+2.5 that comes out on March first.
This looks dope. they really should have released this instead of separating 2.8 from the others for all regions
hmm yea you are right. I thought he said it would be including 2.8 as well.
Anyways I hate that it's locked to SE e-store...... hard to order from there..

I hate that they removed the section of the reports where you can view what commands and items you collected. It was great in Birth by Sleep for tracking things down but I'm lost in DDD.
Confirmed one disc.

well you should, magic in 0.2 is really good and you should be using more
Wow, really? Wonder what the main menu will be like, crowded up on a single screen or will they just add an extra screen that gives you a choice between 1.5 and 2.5 content.
Hm, probably the latter.
Just beat super phantom Aqua. Holy shit that was intense.
Great fight, but I hope there will be more creative with human bosses in KH3.
The boss was fantastic, but it was very VERY reminiscent of Larxene.
KH2 had like 15 human bosses(including Terra and Sephiroth) and each one felt very unique and different in style.
I feel I'm still shaking lol. Not a single boss in DS3 gave me as much trouble haha.
Come on devs, give me KH2 Sora playable(with all drive forms) in the next update.

I have never played DDD before and i have to say i am really enjoying it. Flowmotion is pretty fun when you get used to it, it gives more options. I also like the wider areas in this one. Just arrived at the second world and the music there is awesome(as i have come to expect from KH 
). Looking forward to playing more.
Creating spirits seems a bit random to me though with the rank, level etc. Any tips creating and leveling spirits are welcome

Look for spirits with red (support) abilities as you can keep those permanently for your character once you unlock them. Always make as many spirits as you can & check your ability list to see which spirits can provide what. The "Rank" of a spirit only impacts the spirits stats which are hardly important compared to abilities they provide. You can level them for their abilities then move on to new spirits to unlock new support abilities for your character. Also important to note that the blue stat abilities are only temporary to what spirit's are in your party, but the red support ones are permanent for both Sora and Riku.
End-game I suppose you could go the extra effort for creating star rank spirits of the ones you like for the sake of min maxing.

So.... Just watched a video on flow-motion... Is warping in FF XV a neutered version of flowmotion?
After beating super Aqua, final boss was nothing. I beat it so fast I didn't give it a chance to do anything in the final phase loooool.
The music is just so GOOD.
Must have spent ~20 hours and haven't even started critical mode yet.
+
Wayfinder+Mickey is awesome. It is basically like that limit move with Riku in world that never was/final boss.

You can still use curaga even if you have a tiny bit of MP left. I usually use Curaga when my MP is almost gone.
Thanks, i'll keep that in mind about the red support abilities. I was already trying to get leaf bracer from meow wow in the first place, so that seems like a good plan.
I haven't played FFXV so i can't say anything about that. In the game it's just a way to use walls poles etc for movement and attacks, Its a pretty neat way to incorperate the environments and expand the battle system.

Excellent, I can just use the steelbook I got with the PS3 version of 1.5, then.

The scene in the Fountain Plaza on Sora's return to Traverse Town is so much worse imo.
"We need to trap that thing in one place."
"Trap it where?"
"The Third District"
"Okay"
*runs off 0.0001 seconds later*
They really nailed this thing as a monster/boss in the game.
It's true that final phase phase can be infuriating, but the uniqueness of this boss is undeniable.
Regular devil's tower is alright, but the final boss is great.
yea visually Devil's Wave is fantastic. The wave itself, background, music... it's really great looking.

Wait. Only red are permanent? I thought they all were once unlocked ._.
For those with the LE how is the pin? I normally don't care about them but I like this one (and that general art / situational piece) and I want some consistency with the HD collection boxes but I'm not sure how long the LE will be available in the UK. Amazon is the only place that still has it (well SE store has a waiting list).

HOLY SHIT i just realized
they kept mickeys ears facing forward in the cut scene of him closing the door in 0.2 just like they did in KH1
fuckin hell out of all the things they kept the ears the same

I know, right? and we already ice riding ability so what do we need run times x2?
Red and purple are permanent (but purple only applies bonuses to the dream eaters so they're less useful). Blue abilities only stay in effect while they're in the party.

I probably wouldn't hate the dream eater BS if everything you learned was permanently applied to your character. I would view them more as methods of gaining abilities than as party members. Seriously dread dealing with them when I start DDD again.
I lol'd when
they gave an explanation for him not wearing a shirt

Me too, lol. To be fair, if they hadn't, I'm sure people would have complained it wasn't accurate to what happened
in KH1's ending.
I laughed at how ridiculous and awkward that line was. Just imagining someone saying something similar in real life is hilarious.
Just beat the final boss on critical and I didn't even grind
It wasn't as brutal as some said, or maybe I just got gud
Most used magic: curaga 38 times
Where are my KH3 news and trailers Nomura sama?
lol.

I feel like they're getting LP faster, and the changes they made to the minigames make those a little more tolerable to do in rapid succession.
I can't say I'd have minded if they retrofitted melding back in, though.

Are there any kingdom hearts centric Twitters that we can tweet as far as criticism?
I just really hope they fix they movement/navigation for KH3. From the trailers, Sora runs like hyena Aqua, waaay too fast.

Did you play after the patch? They did nerf him little bit.
Storywise you'd probably be completely lost as it's a direct sequel to KH2 that ties in the events from BBS to explain the setup for KH3.
But it'd be possible to pick it up and learn to play for sure.

No, wait for 1.5+2.5 in March, that has all the games to exist before 2.8

Lol i refuse to let myself drop anymore. One playthrough at a time
well that's true. Although regarding that specific boss it's not really much of balance job.
