Yeah this is much better than KH1 glide. Animations are lacking compared to K2 though, but that's likely due to being a budget handheld game.

It's really getting irritating that every person sports the mystery cloak. I loved the design of the cloaks when it was introduced for Organization XIII because it added to the mystery and allure. But every time a character identity is to remain a secret, they show up in the same freaking cloak. It's honestly getting old and I cannot believe Nomura cannot add new designs for it.

I mean, he literally just introduced 5 new characters with unknown identities, each with a different design albeit similar themes...

npcs should have more anticipation frames before they attack. Maybe it' just me though, seems like I can't properly anticipate when those water heartless will attack.

if your taking about the demon tower boss they patched it
it glows red for about a few seconds before attacking now
I had a really hard time avoiding those attacks even after the patch. There some trick to it?

Just watch the color while attacking. When you see it just do the clunky air dash away from it. Let it move around. It will punch at you 3 times normally.
Thanks, I'll try to remember that. It's not like I had trouble beating it mind you, but I really want to master these bosses upon replay. I didn't do well and it felt clunky.

Nah I'm talking about shit like the water and fire heartless.
Some staff from Osaka were involved in Re:coded's battle system. But it was mainly developed by h.a.n.d.

They should bring back upgradable Keyblades. That was really neat-o in Re:coded.

Fire Cores are fairly obvious. The problem with them is their ranged attack can track you for ages so if there are a group of them, or even just a gang of Heartless and one Fire Core, you're likely to get destroyed by their ranged fire missiles. Best thing to do is either freeze them, or trigger a Blizzaja ASAP which usually comes close to one-shotting them.
Water Cores seem fairly predictable. They usually flow before they're about to attack you, or you'll see a blue spot beneath you on the ground if they're surging up to you. When they have the orb, they'll teleport and counter you with a charge if you perform a normal attack. Fire evaporates the bubble (literally - you can see the steam coming from them!) and Firaja destroys them.
would be nice to be able to upgrade keyblades since now there is keyblade transformation

Speaking of God I hope transformations aren't tied to certain Keyblades.
I expect transformations are tied to keyblades... I don't see them making all the variations for each keyblades.

I actually learned that from a KHIII trailer, lol.
Interestingly enough, the same trailer showed off an additional attack from them that doesn't seem to be implemented in 0.2; a raincloud that hovers over your character.

Hopefully they get rid of stats for each keyblade than. Would be a shame to have to ditch a keyblade if it's better stat wise but I don't like it's transformation or vice versa

Eh, stats are mostly garbage, especially on a Lv1 run or with Power/Magic/Guard Ups.
The more important thing is the attack string and variation of each transformation. I'm grateful that Keyblades have different Transformations as it encourages you to use different Keyblades regardless of their stats.

I always stick with the Kingdom Key after I've 100%'d the game. Best looking one. A lot of the keyblades look like shit because of the hardware limitations of the ps2 though, almost look 2d at times(kh2 ultima weapon)
In KH2 I probably spent 20 or so hours farming synth materials to get strenght boosts. I could do round 49(cloud, tifa,squall, yuffy) of the hades cup in like 10 seconds.
LIke this guy.
Hoping that I can do the same in KH3.

I'm so tired of the cloaks too, but the last straw for me was when everyone came back to life with regular outfits and then Axel came back as Lea... in his organization coat. Nomura should have featured Lea's new design in 3D because that felt cheap and lazy.

Yep. Re:Coded's did a similar thing with the Overclock system, and it's probably the best implementation of keyblades in the series.
Want a standard keyblade with good offensive nd defensive boosts? Kingdom Key or Zero-One. Want magic boosts or to attach different elements to your attacks? Lady Luck or Wishing Star. Want passive healing boosts and Auto-Life? Oathkeeper. And so on and so forth.

I just assumed that's what he was wearing idk lol everybody else from the organization that came back had their guard outfits on or lab coats

It always glowed red. The patch added the blue smoke directly before his attacks.

Yeah, for real.
It iterated on Birth by Sleep's systems better than DDD, in my opinion. Even took quite a few design cues from TWEWY, which more games should do these days.

i just wonder if they are gonna keep keyblade abilities in KH3?
well in 2FM Kingdom Key is actually a surprisingly good keyblade
Damage Control is really good

Proud will give you a tougher time early on (since Sora's first few bosses are a pain in the ass without the defense abilities) but keeps the back half from being a complete bore.
Yes.

I like these enemies making you have to work around the other heartless and go for them first, but if there's more than 2 it's just unbearable. You barely get a chance to attack because you have dodge or block their projectiles one after another. Their design is at its best when its a large area with one or two separate high points with all the shadows on the ground and some bats guarding them. That's fun. A small room with four of them is not.
Great. Will definitely buy.
I really hope they add the "Skip Recovery" command option in BBS, it's a godsend in DDD
I hope they really eliminate a lot of the bugs and glitches present in 1.5 and 2.5

I'd love to see this in KH3 and for them to maybe even get rid of armor and accessories (keep it simple, please). Making each Keyblade like an FF job is by far the best way to keep it interesting and simple at the same time.

God I hate the disposition system
Dream eaters are the worst. Like someone barfed a rainbow

Dream Eaters are one of those things that'd be cool if it wasn't actually central to the game. If they were just some form of alternate progression and optional to traditional party members, they'd be just fine.
As they are, they're a pain to have to juggle on top of actually playing the game.
This is the peak of KH cutscene direction and storytelling, guys. The most important person of a Disney world dies and Riku doesn't even react, he just turns back and changes the subject. Ah, Dream Drop Distance truly is the gift that keeps on giving.
To be fair, riku has no connection to Tron. If it was Sora sure
That wasn't Tron it was Flynn, the character Riku actually interacted with the most in that world.

To be also fair, the events in the sleeping worlds are "not really happening" respectively have no consequences

The whole Tron world in DDD makes zero sense in context anyway. It can't be the same Tron for example as KH2 even doe it's implied to be. Don't think too deeply about it. I mean, the ''sleeping worlds'' thing is a blatant asspull anyway.
I'm having surprisingly good time with DDD after I got out of Traverse Town. Still not a great game but IMO it works much better on console.

It's because
they aren't the same Tron. The Tron in KH2 was copied and modified by Ansem the Wise. The grid was the original "program" so to speak.
Sora can make the sleeping world Tron remember because of his memories in his heart and because the Trons are connected their hearts are the same or something like that.

It's weird because chronologically the movie doesn't plot like that.
