Ok, got through the double secret ending stuff. Loaded up Ventus, nothing happened. Trying with Aqua now, and nobody showing up there for a fight either...

LTTP- Kingdom Hearts All-In-One- OP Finished Thru KHIII!

I'm pretty sure you need to beat the Vanitias clone thing that one hit kills you to unlock that fight. Might be too much of a pain to bother.
EDIT: Yeah, OP would need to beat Vanitias's Lingering Spirit in the Badlands of Keyblade Graveyard to unlock Mysterious Figure. There are a lot of cool secret bosses in BBS (including Master Eraqus's Armour, No Heart, Monstro, etc), but they're a bit grindy to get to.

huh
ran around the area on all three complete saves. oh well, im gonna start watching a bit of re: coded.
You have to beat the boss at the Badlands first, then the one at the Land of Departure will appear.
Hey OP, what are your thoughts on BBS?
Some hate it, many say it's one of the best in the series.
What say you?

OP
There are some reasonable complaints about combat mechanics. Nevermind normal attacks being close to useless with how op commands can be, the superbosses are badly desinged bullshit (imo, at least).
Story-wise I think it's fine or even good, if you can ignore the characters being written extra dumb so stuff can happen.
OP
OP
I guess after doing KH 1 and 2 back to back I found the command system refreshing and fun rather than OP, but I think that's fair.
I think it's because while actual mechanics are interesting and a welcome change to previous games, the game balance is completely whack and Mysterious Figure in particular demands that you unlearn everything the game taught you instead of being a culminating challenge the way Lingering Will was. Glad you loved BBS OP. It's my favourite after KH2FM.
OP
OP
for me the story factor weighs in heavily why I liked it. Game was lore bomb after lore bomb. Plus Leonard Nimoy just slays as Xehanort. Younger King Mickey is cool. And Yen Sid playing a more key role was cool as well
DDD has the craziest world selection. Is not even a competition.
They digged deep on Disney stuff for some of those

glad to hear!Was super glad BBS also had new locales, the others were stale after 3 straight games
OP starts Dream Drop Distance

That intro/recap at the beginning was freaking AWESOME! Here we go!
It's an amazing recap and one of the best intros for sure!!
What did you think about Re: Coded?
OP
OP
Glad that posters told me to just watch the beginning and end. Although given the heavy emphasis on data, I have a feeling it'll play a role later on.
Hey SparkleMotion, just DDD to get through on easy, then a movie and the 2.8 final prologue thingy, before I can play KHIII! TBH this has been way less taxing than going straight through Yakuza 0-6. I could navigate Kamurocho blindfolded at this point.
Although CoM, 358/2 Days and Re: Coded were somewhat repetitive they each had lore enough to at least make watching worthwhile. Overall there's just more variety here, and that's not a knock, just saying its not as hard as people made it seem to get through a play through, though I DID technically skip CoM.
I'm going to take this chance to shamelessly recommend OP "The World Ends with you"
The characters that guest appear early into DDD are from that game. It's an incredible story driven action RPG game for the DS made by the COM team. And one of my favorite games of all time, if you loved KH you gotta try it.
There are remasters for mobile and Switch but they lose the frenetic dual screen action of the OG DS version. Still the story is amazing no matter the version.
And the theme song is fire
So good in fact that DDD even uses a god tier "Kingdom Mix" whenever main character Neku is on screen.

Cool, I will check out TWEWY at some point. My cousin keeps recommending it to me, same one who recommended KH.
DDD has a lot of systems so far....but also damn I love the Yen Sid infodumps

I just grabbed a physical switch copy for $21 including ta that I can pick up at lunch tomorrow,, so...more fodder for the backlog.
Ok, traverse town completed with Sora and Riku. Glad you told me where these characters they're interacting came from, or I'd have no idea. Anyway, so far so good, I'm not expecting any snags with this play through, I've just been taking it slow tonight, exploring a bit. Pretty exhausted. Tomorrow night I expect to make a huge dent in the game.
One tip, stock up on "Drop Me Not" from the item store.
They reset your drop timer, making it easier to complete a world with a single character in one go.
Dropping during a boss fight ain't fun.

To elaborate on this, if you drop during a boss it will regain all of it's HP.
Honestly, I don't think that fits BBS. It does fit DDD though because BBS does explain a lot of the things that we were wondering about.
Man the DDD hype was real back when I was in high school. I remember watching some terrible off screen livestreams of it when it released in Japan on the school's shite desktops. I spent so long playing it on the 3DS but now I forget that version even exists lol
Understandable, but for me it was the one that solidified that dumb plot twists are now part of the franchise's identity and there's nothing we can do about it now.
Like, this is the one that it became normal, cause it seems that after BBS critics stopped actually criticising the story and just started saying "well that's KH for ya"
I saw that trailer aboit five times daily since its release up to the game's release.
I'm not gonna lie, when the art was first shown off of Sora and Riku standing on the building in twilight town with their new clothes I printed it out and pinned it in my room lmao. That mark of mastery edition was day 1.
Hijacking the thread momentarily
I just beat Chain of Memories with Sora. I understand there's a Riku mode, but I'm feeling pretty burnt on this game's structure. Is it important to go through that for the story?
If not, where to next?

It is. It'sm,uch shorter than Sora's story though with pretty much each floor being a beeline to the boss and there's no deck customization.
Kay, guess I'll run through it. Thanks.
And once I've finished, which game comes next?
KH DDD is a wild ride, and has some of the best moments in the series towards the end. That CGI intro is wonderful too. Enjoy OP.

OP
Wow, lots of replies to wake up to! Well, I'm at work now, but like I said I hope to make a ton of DDD progress tonight. I doubt I'll have much issue with anything on easy, but good call to stock up on the drop me nots anyway just for convenience

The story is pretty important, it's the start of Riku's redemption.
I'd play it in beginner or youtube it

When you get to kh3, buy ReMind before you start since it'll give you the ability to customize difficulty to suit you best :)

Bought it a few days ago, but thanks! I was planning on doing it on critical, when I get there.
Yeah that's a good difficulty for the most part. It has a few pretty harsh difficulty spikes but the other difficulties are way too easy with how many tools you have.
Do we know if OP will have access to the awesome 1.09 KH III abilities without having a clear save file?
I'm hearing conflicting reports that you need to beat the game once to hace them in subsequent playthroughs while others say you unlock them normally.
Hopefully he gets them, 1.09 3RM fixed most of the mechanical issues and got to 2FM tier again.

Good. Just like with KH2 it is by far the best way to experience KH3. Such a shame the difficulty wasn't available at launch.
That intro/recap at the beginning was freaking AWESOME! Here we go!
This is the first Kingdom Hearts game I played. The summaries for all of the previous games that you received helped with bridging the gap of the previous games in enough of a bite-sized manner for me to understand everything that was going on in the plot.
Hunchback of Notre Dame is really butchered in this game. Kind of wish it was the tutorial world in Kingdom Hearts III instead of Olympus.
Hey NattyBo, as well as everyone else, just wondering what's been your favorite rendition of Dearly Beloved so far? I love when DDD goes into waltz-like section at 1:25. I think BBS might be my favorite, though. It just reminds me of the end of the Blank Points scene. 1:14 is so good.
Also, I hope you like DDD. It has one of my favorite worlds in the series.
