Kingdom Hearts III launch update plans

[sir_crocodile]

It's not an ending, just a tie in to the next game/saga. Still, way too silly in my opinion. This is like saying you won't watch a netflix show because in 15 years the show might not be available because netflix is gone.
Well, to each their own.

No, this is like saying you didn't read my posts in this thread and don't actually understand what I was talking about. I originally thought the ending was not on disc. I cared about that. Then it turned out it was just a post ending video that isn't. I don't care about that.

 

[Mr.Deadshot]

The ending is there.

No dlc announcement or season passes.

Click to shrink...

Pretty sure DLC was announced or at least heavily hinted at.

 

[clockstrikes]

The game launchs at 25(29) and the secret movie patch launchs at 31.

Point still stands. It wasn't left out of the game because they couldn't finish it, like what you're insinuating. This was a conscious decision on their part.

Granted it still sucks for everyone outside of Japan, but I'm not surprised SE is showing such little concern for us yet again.

Is it safe to say Critical will unlock the secret ending?

Since the requeriments vary depending on the level, I'm assume not.

Not sure what you're "pointing". If it was a matter of spoilers, the secret movie would be released in the same day as the launch.

 

[Doc Kelso]

Lol, can't even finish the game after 14 years of waiting.
Yeah I will so wait for all the DLC to be released. I am curious if this will be another Final Fantasy 15 situation (probably not). But I want all the DLC and endings released before diving into it.

Any infos about paid DLC?

Click to shrink...

So you'll play the game on the 31st.

 

[Mifec]

Honestly I like this decision. We can't get all the spoilers but there's at least something I can shield myself from

or you couldn't have just not been on the internet while this leaked and the game could have come with everything on the disc.

Your post is implying they left the epilogue and secret ending out of the base game because they couldn't finish it in time. For the third time, I'm telling you it was a conscious decision they made in an attempt to combat early spoiler leaks. It's not difficult to understand.

They're considering DLC. Nomura doesn't like the season pass format though.

 

[Damerman]

Was there ever a word on wat dlc might be?

 

[Mr.Deadshot]

Click to shrink...

Nope, lost a bit of interest in the franchise over the last years of waiting and still waiting for clarifaction on DLC. Pretty sure I will play it on PS5.

Fair enough! I'm hoping the only DLC/post-release stuff is a Final Mix but god knows these days.

 

[Ultraviolence]

So if I were to play this in 15 years or whatever without HDD data, I wouldn't have the ending on the disc and the download server may not exist. that's not ok to me.

I don't mind bugfixes and extras being DLC, but the ending of the game being that way is kinda a nono to me

intelligent comment

I didn't said that at all lol

I said that people waited way too long to play the game and uncover it's secrets. It's kinda a disrepect with the fans that waited this long for this.

And stop that lame strawman attitude. I never said I didn't understand, just that I didn't buy this at all. If it was really about spoilers, they would have launched at the same date that it releases.

 

[badcrumble]

Really hoping there's really robust post-launch/DLC support for this game (additional keyblades, playable characters/mini-campaigns, new superbosses, maaaaaaybe even new worlds or expanded geography for existing worlds).

Not talking about the content of the leak, but the *fact* that a full GM leak happened nearly two months before the release of the game (that is to say, that the game was fully polished in its GM state) tells me that they've had quite a bit of time to work on post-launch content.

The game went gold in November and was produced and shipped to distribution warehouses by late December. Considering it's not going to release until the end of January, they had plenty of time to add the two scenes to disc if they chose to, and they didn't. If you don't believe that, then that's cool, but there's little to suggest otherwise.

I hope you're at least try to understand(or read) that I'm talking about release an update on the same day of the launch.

Sounds more like a reverse XV. The story seems to have gotten focus, but the game is lacking in terms of content.

I agree with this.

 

[PlanetSmasher]

Click to shrink...

Critical will probably be the easiest way. The last couple games have made it where the secret ending is unlocked automatically when you finish the game on Critical, with a bit of work on Proud, and with 100% completion on Normal mode.

Not really XV, KH3 seems to have plenty of main story content. The thing is, it has KH2 Vanilla levels of post game content which means it only has a few things to do.

Yes, this. Content is not about post-game but the game as a whole, saying that a ~40hours game is lacking content is reaching.

 

[LuisGarcia]

I don't understand...why are people saying this has no side content? Is that from leaks?

They are either highly misinformed or causing drama. We know there's a lot of side and post game content via official media + trophy list.

Can we not poison the thread with talk about one specific leaker who's playing a stolen copy of the game? Let's not, alright?

I think a lot of people don't remember that vanilla KH2 had basically no postgame content at all except for Sephiroth.

 

[BAD]

The ending epilogue content is download only... uh???

It's likely going to be a one-minute scene, not playable content. The ending is on the disc.

Yeah but I'm stupid and selfish

 

[MostRefinedBro]

I like how people are acting like their going to unlock the secret ending or even just beat KH3 in a day. We don't even fully know the criteria to get the secret ending. If it's anything like the other games, it's gonna take longer than a day or two. Anyone who plays the whole thing a day either doesn't care about the story or doesn't have their priorities straight.

 

[Dajanksta]

This is fine. Prevents the ending from being spoiled. Seems smart.

Or...maybe they just have free time and the game isn't that long? I beat DDD in two days, in fact.

 

[Deleted member 17860]

I haven't played a KH game since the PS2.

Click to shrink...

you should really watch this, hell watch it twice otherwise you wont know what the fuck is going on... at all.

its the easiest to follow video on youtube.. so if your not gonna play the other games it'll let you know everything for the story in 3.

I was the same as you I bought the og games on ps2 only played KH1 and 2 but I didn't buy any of the other games... I did just buy the 1.5 & 2.5 final remix on ps4 though...at 20 its a steal, every games story matters even the shitty web browser game... smh

so dont watch if you want to play the other games and not get spoiled.. if you only gonna play 3 I would.

 

[Deleted member 17860]

double post lol

 

[Nemesis Warlock]

So, in other words, 100% the game on Proud mode, get to the ending, then reboot and patch it since it'll take me nearly a week to get to that point.

okay.

 

[Inuhanyou]

nice way to combat leaks

 

[AnUnbiasedGamer]

so excited for this one. Last one I played was 2 and i skipped about 80-90% of the cutscenes. Turns out I know the story just as well as everyone else. Just kidding, but honestly it was a blast to play.
