Lexaeus: "Do you know what a limit break is?"
Roxas: "No..."
*Lexaeus smashes Roxas to the ground.*
"There, now you're on your last legs."

The only good part of the stretched out tutorial.

Somewhere, surely procrastinating
Yes, definitely those interactions --- I mean, do you remember the time they ate ice cream? Or that other one where they just sat there? Oh, oh, and that other time they ate ice! Let's not forget when they fought against each other 8D

X I O N !!!
...
hmm... who am I gonna eat ice cream with?

the gist is that Roxas is sort of a dick.

I thought it was nice when Xigbar challenged Roxas at the coliseum and told him he cared about his potential :smile:

  • Many people don't agree but the Disney worlds play a huge thematic role in how Roxas and Xion learn.

I like your list, but this one in particular is one of my favorite reasons. When you can tell these worlds were plucked because they contributed to enhancing the story. They were RELEVANT! 8D

It almost makes me wish they would have included Prankster's Paradise in Days. Almost. It might have been too literal of a comparison, and the audience is smart enough to pick up on the nuances of Xion's plight being compared to the characters in other worlds without being spoonfed. Still, though, if contemplating a full remake when ultimately deciding to just do cinematics, it would have been cool to insert PP scenes.

Bosses had unique fighting styles and weren't as cookie cutter as other bosses.

Well, I did hear they were going to include the Pinnochio world, but it was trashed for that reason, I guess. I would like to see that fox and that cat that managed to trick Pinnochio into going there to make an appearance. Days would have probably been the first time that they would have appeared.

I'm glad they held off, it would have been weird seeing Pinocchio as a human in Days.

Boy, it's been a while since I've said good things about 358/2 Days... probably since the game was released, haha.

Well, conceptually I think the gameplay is great. The execution is alright and could've used some improvement, but still isn't bad. I like the idea of an episodic narrative in a Kingdom Hearts game where you can replay each episode (although I think Re:Coded handled it much better), and even play as separate characters while doing so. It reminds me a lot of the LEGO games where you can Free Play previous levels you've completed as any character you want. It was also the first Kingdom Hearts game to incorporate multiplayer and I thought they did it fairly well.

It also had a lot of neat little easter eggs as well like the 'joke' weapons. Those were pretty hilarious.

And lastly, the soundtrack is great. I may not like the character Xion, but Vector to the Heavens is among my top 5 favorite Kingdom Hearts songs.

The reason I mentioned it was because we know it had been scrapped. I wasn't just wishing for random Disney worlds in the game. :) But yes it would have been interesting to see other characters like Honest John and Gideon brought to light. Positive spin, is that we still got the afore-posted sprites out of it!

While I'm not broken up about it, it would have been cool to see. We don't get enough expansion on the Disney characters pre / post the official movie storyline.
