I liked the part where no one realized CLU isn't really a threat since he can't travel anywhere without being a keyblade wielder, effectively making the entirety of that world pointless

Loving the game so far, but playing it rather slow.

For example, I've had the same since the 22nd of July, and I'm still taking Sora through Prankter's Paradise =P By the time I finish and can join discussion you'll all probably have moved on.

Don't feel too bad..I don't even got a 3ds yet but KH 3d is becoming a main reason to get one.

Frootz Cat is exclusive to an AR card that came with the Mark of Mastery edition. I didn't make a Necho Cat, so I can't say either way on it being just a reskin, but it held so many Attack and Magic Haste abilities, it was a godsend for me.

Edit your deck, highlight the command, and press X to set a shortcut. To jump to the shortcut, press left on the D-pad.

Oh, so I can't get it any other way then, all right for me then to take it

I also made good use of the Kab Kannon from the Mark of Mastery edition.



It's only cheating because I didn't pay $15 more for my game to get the cards. Actually, I also figured there was no point in opening the cards that came with the normal edition when I had scans of them.

I got the seven trophies I needed for standard difficulty (plus an extra), but the boss fight thing is worse than I thought. When they make you go back to do it again, they really make you do it all. If you try to go into the fight as Riku, he falls asleep and the game does a force drop to make you fight Xemnas as Sora first. Then, Riku gets to fight Young Xehanort and the Armored Ventus Nightmare. Also, every report I hear says that the middle part of the credits thing I mentioned...

...is also a requirement for the secret ending. Can't confirm either way.

Edit: Got the secret ending. And it changed the hell out of my stats.

If you put them all together, it spells "This leads to KINGDOM HEARTS". After that, the last two sets of characters to come on screen aren't accompanied by letters, but there's three characters in each shot. Specifically, DiZ, Roxas, and Xion in the first shot, and Terra, Aqua, and Ven in the second, so most of the people Sora is supposed to rescue.

Finished the game yesterday so I'd just like to point out that after THIS LEADS TO KINGDOM HEARTS comes up, Sora and Riku run into the light, making it look like three pillars.

...Half-Life 3 confirmed.

This Leads to Kingdom Hearts? Was that not in Kingdom Hearts 1?

[Gman5852]

I'd like to know what idiot thought it bright for me to fight at least 3 boss fights one after the other without any save points in Traverse Town 2nd time with Sora? Because Its been weeks and I still can't beat the thing, because you fight in a small square with no room to dodge!

[ryannumber1gamer]

I'm thinking the same guy who makes you fight 4 bosses in World that never ends in Kingdom Hearts 2.

no, that was well done if you mean the final boss. This has the exact same tiny square that doesn't allow any moverablility, then forces bosses that REQUIRE a giant space to dodge the attacks to even be slightly fair. The only strategy is to freaking levelgrind. That is very VERY poor game design for an action game if it actually goes down to being 20 levels higher than what the game says. And the 4 bosses actually had a checkpoint system. Die at the final boss of the rotaion? F you! You get to play the whole dang thing again!

What's funny is Riku's side of this story is that he fights 4 common dream eaters and leaves. Its like no one thought "hey, anyone think it's silly to use copy and paste to make a boss fight?"

[ryannumber1gamer]

What do you mean by tiny square? Do you mean just tiny enough for Sora and the boss?

The third district of Traverse town, that little square in the center. There'es enough to do rather basic dodges, but when the bosses themselves are really quick and can attack in all directions, its near impossible to dodge.

I just beat it after 2 hours(not joking) of level grinding, which is the definition of poor game design(or a turn based RPG like Pokemon, but it isn't that).

[ryannumber1gamer]

Oh you mean the same place where you fight that boss in Kingdom Hearts 1. The one where you have to attack it's body parts.

Yes, but the area is much smaller than before, so it made things a pain when the bosses have so much range/attack power. You fight the bosses prior to that, but all 3 times its in a giant open area for you to get away and dodge the attacks that way, its nearly impossible to do so close range.

Finally got it though and can move on thank god.

[ryannumber1gamer]

I hated that area in KH 1. Do you have anyone to help you like Goofy or Riku?

You get "Spirits" which is kind of like Pokemon in that you can pick and choose your own to collect and train, but unlike Pokemon, how useful a spirit is won't be figured out until you've used it in battle and got your but kicked, so I barely mess with the feature, unless a spirit can tech you a really cool ability(which some can)

Do you even get Summons!?
