I laughed harder than I needed to at this.

@WayToDusk I don't know if Twitch.tv does IP address bans, but you might've crossed IP's with someone who was banned.

I wish I could watch this on my phone I downloaded the twitch app but when I try to search for the stream, it says it cant find it. ughhh

Honestly, I've been watching the Days stream a bit (no spoilers, don't worry) and I think it doesn't exactly work as a "movie." Whenever we see a battle that is supposed to take place after a cutscene, it just suddenly skips ahead to the aftermath and it just feels disjointed.

So, I wish we could have gotten some gameplay in Days, but only a very limited amount of gameplay and by very limited I mean only the boss fights that are represented in the cutscenes. Roxas would be fixed in every way, not at all customizable and, of course, given certain changes from boss to boss to represent the passing of time and him getting stronger. I think it would flow much better. The battles themselves wouldn't need to be a big deal since the point is just to have a more natural progression. I dunno. What do you guys think?

I agree. Especially at

the end. It feels so anti-climactic if we don't even get to see the battle between Xion and Roxas which I always thought was epic. And the boss music (Vector to the Heavens) is just incredible. The battle made me sad when I played the game and made the following scene much more sad. You'd think they'd be able to inject some FF7 Advent Children swag into 358/2 Days. Talk about epic battle scenes. I was sort of expecting that.

I could be wrong, though. I've only skimmed over the livestream as I've pre-ordered the game from play-asia and I don't feel like watching a movie I can't understand, twice. And considering most of its dialogue on top of a clock tower. (not sure if this is a spoiler <.<) I almost fell asleep watching one of those scenes.

I sort of hope that Square will remake a playable version of 358/2 Days down the line and release it as DLC on the PSN. Maybe after KH2.5 Wishful thinking on my part, I know. :tongue:

I watched the end, and the cutscenes are split how they are in the game. It skips from the beginning of the Xion boss fight to her defeat. She doesn't even transform.

Only thing that really bothers me is that the Saix fight was taken out entirely.

Also worth noting is that there are some musical differences and updates. For example, since the boss fight is cut, Vector to the Heavens starts playing much earlier. (And it sounds more amazing than ever with the update.) For some reason, the music where Riku defeats Roxas is now Friends in My Heart instead of Riku's Theme...

That... that really sucks I mean, wasn't that why we were all so excited about the Days movie? Sucking is an understatement!

I haven't watched it all, but are there any voiced scenes with Larxene, Demyx, Marluxia etc? They all seem to be still images.

 

[Delsan]

For anyone that saw the stream, is the cutscene where Roxas meets Hayner, Pence, and Olette voiced?

There's one voiced scene with Demyx so far (I'm about half way through). All of the CO members except Axel had no voiced scenes.

The credits list a few Disney characters but they also list the voice actors for all of the Org members so lol 8D i might have screwed over my video somewhere during my school timeouts and missed something but I don't remember any Disney characters

this is terrible. Half the organisation members voices and no Disney character voices. Silly RAX taking up the whole story.

Axel is adorable though; can we just be mad at Roxas and Xion for taking up so much time?

Even though Axel's faces are funny, it is annoying that they were given this chance to reveal more about the inner most plans of the Organization and Xemnas' true goals but instead focused again on the adventures of a Doll.

Huh, sounds like the original Days then 8D

Oh. Mickey. Mickey is a Disney character. Right.

Yeah Mickey has the scene with Riku voiced.


I do like how they portray Axel as a father figure to Roxas and Xion in this version.

I didn't really see it like a father. Definitely had the father feel, but he seemed more like the caring big brother who spoils you with ice cream then fights with you when you piss him off enough but still gives you ice cream after because he feels bad. It's really sweet and I really hope that carries over into KH3. I can really see Lea trying to be a big brother to Sora, Kairi, and even Riku.
