I know this has been beat to death 1 million times, maybe even a few times myself, lol.
But, I was gifted this game for my birthday but I have never played a KH game. Since this was gifted from my wife, I would like her to see me playing it sometime soon so I was wondering, is there a vetted video that can explain the series up to this point?
I have seen a lot of recommendations here and I was kind of hoping there was a bonafide, vetted video that will get me as close as I can to understanding the series without having played anything.
I am sorry if this has been addressed over and over and over - I actually even asked before but that was pages ago but I forget.

There's an in-game Memory Archive you can access from the main menu that has videos that should explain everything to you.
Basically in KH3 there is something called MP combo thrift and endless magic from the lucky emblem accessory (Mickey clasp)
Endless magic lets you infinitely cast magic without a finisher, MP combo thrift lowers the magic cost per cast. Essentially they are starting with fire, and get to a point that Firaga is worth 1 mp to cast, basically allowing over 100+ magic spells without any consequence. Throw in MP thrift which reduced magic cost by 20% a cast, you can easily get 130+ firaga casts
With MP galvanize, which makes you have more powerful magic per cast, this can literally be the most powerful thing in the game.

They said they wanted to see an original story made for Kingdom Hearts and not just an adaption, we can appreciate that on the other end Disney had very strict guidelines with some of the worlds im not sure they are bothered by 'canon' but they rather help create an original storyline with Square Enix
Uh...you can, but I won't. Would I rather fight some stupid UFO over Emperor Zurg? Hell no.
But if all worlds were adaptions it would get boring :^(
Plus the ufo boss was cool with all the blocks and arena changes
Sorry if this has been asked, but I've a question regarding the "Let It Go" scene. Was that scene created from the ground up in Unreal Engine, mirroring the scene from the movie as closely as possible, or were they able to import assets from the film into Unreal Engine to help with the design process?
Yes. It was very weird. I guess they assumed everyone saw Frozen lol. I still haven't.
It's not that Disney assumed people saw Frozen. It's that they didn't want anything in the ballpark of Anna or Elsa getting in combat.
Tells me the problem with Disney worlds in KH right now isn't Disney/Pixar but Nomura. If you have Disney/Pixar willing to help you to create original stories for their properties for your game, but you opt for the shallow retelling that's basically a bore and has been since KH2, I don't even know what to say. That's been one of the weakest elements of these games dating back to KH2 onward and unfortunately it's actually the biggest chunk of these games. The fact that Nomura has Disney saying they're happy with original stories, and would probably no doubt even assist in them creatively since they obviously care about their properties, yet he seems he needs to have Sora basically go through the motions of the movie demonstrates a lack of creative vision on his part.
Because Disney was that anal about Frozen. Elsa can't wreck Heartless, but she needs to sing Let it Go.
Agreed.
But then you hear Elizabeth and they cancel each other out.
Jesus, this Frozen world was BAAAAAAAAD especially the "It's........fucking nothing!" climax where our characters don't even interact with the Frozen cast at all. What a bizarre story arc & huge momentum killer. It took three days to push myself to finally slog through it. At least the boss battle was fun though - glad it's over!
Yeah, I just started this world and was happy with his dialogue and then she started talking lksdfjl.
Kinda disappointed the monstrosity that was Aerith's voice in KHII didn't get a chance to show up this go around!
If you have absolutely zero knowledge of Kingdom Hearts, not really. The memory archive recap is more for people with at least a working knowledge of what came before.
Most likely is was done in Maya and inserted into the game. There's an image floating around of the Let It Go scene which has the Arnold watermark (a renderer in Maya) left in the game.
No, he's just supposed to be a dickhead. He basically sets the Foretellers up to fail.
I guess but what I mean is that it feels like he's supposed to be a likeable and humorous villain but he's just aggravating to me.
Look at this. Fuck this guy.
thats because this time its actually someone whos been doing his voice in all the video games back to the PS2 days. He's actually a pretty solid mock voice actor
Back Cover was hilarious to me; I loved those bits among the kinda ehhh actual Chi stuff.
Coming off watching the Chi cutscenes in the day or so before, they build the Master of Masters up as this mysterious leader that was such a great person, but questionably left them so alone when this problem was brewing... and no, nope, it was actually just that he was a complete dick in such a hilariously obvious way, with this weird amount of joking charisma that's totally out of place for the Union leaders' seriousness. It made the movie worth watching.

Well, yeah. He's a weirdo. He doesn't seem to take anything seriously and that constantly disarms the foretellers. No one knows what his game is.
But it will be incredibly satisfying to punch him in the dick.
One of the most annoying things in this game was when the game straight up tells you to go to the wrong place in Toy Story world.
Yup, I got to that world and was kind of impressed that Jack didn't sound like garbage this time. And then Elizabeth talked

not even close to as bad as KH1FM though.........i said fuck that after the 2nd world of those new special mob farming.
iirc, Sarge tells you to go to Babies and Toddlers, when you actually need to go to Kid Korral.
I'd say KH2FM had it worse too. There was way more synth grinding and forced Atlantica sections.
Are there any additional steps I'm missing to unlock
I did the 4 sides of the building and it showed a clip of the top but nothing appeared and there's nothing up there at all.
Do I need to beat
first?
Omega Ship battle?

Tornado bastard guy
both final mixes made getting the ultimate weapon no fun. While both added great things they really messed with any fun the end game had in getting the weapon. Plus I will never forgive them for ruining oblivion.
Army dude tells you to go to the baby store at one point and there's nothing in the baby store but a bunch of heartless. You're actually supposed to go to the kid place across from it
did you do the guy underneath the ship......thats the one i forgot as well.
That's kind of what I'm thinking. I imagine since Frozen is Disney's big merchandise property, they wanted minimal interaction with original stuff. That would explain why any time they did a scene from the film, SDG would be regulated to just watching it play out.
Oh god, there's one underneath?! Thank you! I will check that out tomorrow.
Oh... that. Yeah, I guess? The doll store did not click to me as a "baby store" lol...
"Babies and Toddlers" is the top floor section. You can see it listed as such on posters and maps in the store and when you go to the kid korral it even says "Babies and Toddlers: Outdoors" for that section. So I kinda just never had a problem with this and went around the top floor and saw a window. Then Woody commented on it.
My guess is that the Frozen guys were just too cool and successful to taint their amazing property with filthy animus.
But the Pixar team likes fun.
Or maybe Disney just values FROZEN more
Ultima Weapon in KH 1 Final Mix took me MONTHS
