He's dead!
I like it. Kind of gives this feeling that the Org members actually have something to do with those worlds too. Otherwise it could have felt like the Disney worlds were just disconnected episodes you go through before the "real story" begins. If that makes any sense.

I feel like KH1 Hollow Bastion is the only other world that captured that "typical RPG dungeon" feel that you don't really see in the series too often. (Being designed do be the final dungeon at one point probably helps) While the series has never had great level design aside from the aforementioned two instances, one thing I'd like for them to bring back from KH1 is the level of interactions with the world.
There's a lot of small little details and things to do in KH1's worlds, and it really went a long way towards making each world just a little more memorable. Little things like getting items from Big Ben in Neverland at certain hours of the day, or the secret item you can get in the Traverse Town hotel you get by hitting a clock at a specific time.
Yeah, with KH2, once you've done everything to do in a world, bar certain ones (i.e. Olympus, etc.) there's no incentive to return.
I've just been buying the next 'best one' whenever they become available. I'll own them all eventually.
Not much more to spend your munny on anyway.

Which world? Halloween town hasn't got any weapons at all.
Speak to the Moogle synthesis thing. There's been one in every world so far.

Yeah there usually is one but for some reason H- town doesn't carry any weapons.
Go back to the palace in Land of Dragons and get 85 kills during the mushroom challenge to get a new shield for Goofy. Go back to the waterway in Timeless River and beat the mushroom there within 19 seconds to get a new staff for Donald. Those should last you for a good while. To do the challenges use wisdom form and spam your regular attack.
Just fly to another world? lol

Thank god for the two Lucky Strikes you get on Critical. Got a few Energy Crystals (Those will make getting Ultima Weapon a lot easier) and Akashic Record for Goofy from the Bookmasters in Hollow Bastion within two minutes of each other. Akhasic record should hold me over 'til I get Vexen's shield for Goofy.
When I'm finished with the main story and pretty high levelled.
Just enjoying re-living everything at the moment.
I'm doing them as they show up (minus the ones I can't do with my current abilities/equipment). Going through the second Olympus visit with 6 drive bars was weird.
Post-FFVII Cloud is lame.

You don't have to do all 6 times. You have to win each one once with all characters.
In the Arena, you just have to win a board 7 times. You can just play the first one over and over again. I did
EDIT: Interesting. In Japanese, it's コマンドボードで7回以上優勝する which means "Win 7 or more times in Command Board"... I did this by playing the first Command board 7 times.
In English, it's: Win on All Seven Command Boards... Either translation miss or, maybe the requirements are actually different? Anyone willing to test?
Yeah, but at least the Sephiroth fights are fun. If they do axe Spehy, I hope the new FF super boss will be just as fun to fight.
Maybe it'll be Noctis, lol

As much as I'd like to see another FF/Square superboss, they're probably going to go with Sephiroth for tradition's sake.
I do hope we get a few FF bosses, though. Who was the last (non recurring) FF boss... Zack?

Lightning?
You would be correct. There were no FF character fights in 3D :/
Also got a lucky Akashic Record drop. Heartless dun Goof'd.
FF7 has been the biggest tie-in to Kingdom Hearts. There's the whole Cloud+Sephiroth subplot along with Tifa and Aeris kinda reprising their love triangle role. While other installments have had characters here and there, they don't meld in the same way (what with the whole Olympus Coliseum tie in and even Zack making an appearance)
Considering a lot of the other entries in the series already have had their characters 'used up' in cameos, I'm wondering if we'll get another entire subplot like that one. (e.g. Leon/Squall is already fit into a role per-se, Tidus is some no-name on Destiny Islands, Yuna is a joke character cameo, not sure if they wanna touch FFIX)
Considering they're still technically Nomura's babies, I wouldn't be surprised if the next 'big-thing' are the cast of FFXIII. Of course, the characters themselves can be re-written, so it's not as bad as it sounds.

I don't know anything. Honest.

Lightning will always be important.
You mean the Struggle?
Just stay away from him and hit him with one or two slashes. Patience > him.
it's great that they chose to acknowledge the cartoon he came from
What do you mean? I know he's the secret boss of 3D but what else was going for him?
Julius is a character from the animated short: Runaway Brain.

Yeah, pre-KH Cloud was the badass and Squall was the Emo jerk...then post-KH (and Advent Children) that all got turned around.

Level 50 now, I can pretty much handle the first area of the remembrance cave, but don't have the abilities to get past the 2nd room. On space paranoids 2nd time right now. Kinda wish the Roxas battle was still a cutscene, lol. He whooped me, hopefully get more levels in Space Paranoids.
I'm doing this now. Beat the game the other night and I'm going back to every world to get chests and puzzle pieces I missed, and do the missions.
I don't know why a non-CS student would take a computer science course unless they wanted to die.
So it just eventually ends? Good to know ty!
No, you actually gotta beat him like any other boss. Just hit him when he's open.

Caius probably.
Content Aware Scale is literally the best thing civilization has ever come up with
There are certain times you can safely hit him. When he's sidestepping (he does this a lot after the 1-2 combo) he'll flinch on taking damage.
It's a funny game even on critical. I had a hard time until finishing Olympus first time, then cruised through until Space Paranoids final time/Twilight Town final time/TWTNW when things started getting tough again.
In between those places Crisom Jazz were the only enemies that caused me issues and only when facing more than 2 of them together.

I was actually really disappointed with that being the post-game boss. I had no idea who it was for one thing, and I dunno... I guess I just prefer the optional bosses that are story related like in previous games. I didn't even fight him in KH3D bc I had no interest in fighting that character for some reason, lol.
