I was desperately hoping for the Fragmentary Passage content to be in the remixes. I thought it was the perfect opportunity to add the scenes to them and possibly make them even fuller games. I mean, even if they could work in some of the scenes into KH2 that would make me happy. Who knows, maybe that Riku watching over Roxas and Xion scene may have been crammed into the HD Days?
Hey, if Re:coded can make a game out of data than SE can make it work with Aqua, lol. Plus if they put a lot of focus on a next saga villain then I imagine there would be a substantial amount of story.
Good job! It sucks that it cuts off the beginning though. :c
It would be the golden opportunity to include it if Nomura is really more on the wagon now that he cannot make the game out of it he originally envisioned. All those extra scenes, Mickey in the RoD, Riku and Kairi on Big Ben (that one had a big relevance in Coded again, could probably gone in-depth into in HD Coded-Cutscenes), Donald and Goofy going around looking wary in Traverse, Kairi and HPO in Twilight Town, Riku stalking Roxas and Xion, all those are some nailbiting teasers that might promise a deeper understanding about the stuff that happened in the series.
Well, the Days-scenes are completely new, so I wouldn't rule out that they included some extra stuff.
Re: Coded is also a special case in that it was originally requested by Disney as a lightweight title for mobile phones. Just like Days, Nomura didn't plan on Coded while still working on KH 2. The only title planned by Nomura during KH 2 was Birth by Sleep initially.
Besides the "message of those in torment" and the info that Ansem hid some data, the data-environment in Coded also served mostly to drop more hints about the "hearts can be born everywhere"-fact with Data-Sora which we got finally confirmed in DDD.
Surely the same could be done in regards to Aqua in the RoD, although this might then also be a lightweight title more on the scale of Coded.
Would be an interesting development if the next saga villain actually planned to strike while Xehanort was still around, but Aqua managed to stall him somewhat and incapacitate him/her for a prolonged time period.
It would make an interesting hook up for the next saga if after the victory over Xehanort (and some party together) all the good guys get back to their worlds (SRK to DI, MDG to Disney Castle, RAX + Naminé to Twilight Town and TAV to Land of Departure) and then Aqua suddenly remembers that new threat and hurries to inform Terra and Ven, kickstarting the next adventure.
I was relieved I found a decent video of it at all, rofl.
