Re: Worlds of Kingdom Hearts - What worlds do you want to see in KH3?
i remember being younger when kingdom hearts brought me a particular feeling of joy when playing the different worlds and music and the levels seemed diverse. not just different designs and battle themes but something more. i think that's been lost as of late with the rehashed worlds in many titles but III could rejuvinate the series if the worlds are done right.
there are 13 worlds and they could work like so:
#1 Destiny Islands - we've needed to come back here and have a true DI adventure so let's not be shy about it. the tutorial and prologue can happen here, introduce us to the colorful cast and music and show us a bigger world, shown to exist in II's cinematics.
#2 The Black Cauldron/Sword in the Stone - Merlin making an appearance leads me to believe the latter is more likely and this could be the first official battle world to get a hang of the combat.
#3 Frozen - now that you're back into the wonder of KH you're thrown into a beautiful world full of singing, colorful enemies and CONSPIRACY.
#4 Lilo & Stitch - surely i need not explain how this works. imagine a true L&S world in hawaii.
#5 Olympus Coliseum - although it isn't the arena it used to be, a reimagining is in order. battling the titans, exploring a vast countryside, Underworld, Mount Olympus and potentially introducing another SE character, this could be a good one.
#6 Radiant Garden - following everything that's happened, it really makes you wonder what's going on at the RG.
#7 Yen Sid's Tower ---> Fantasia - in the beginning of the second half serious business goes down. for some reason you must go to yen sid's castle and assist him with some evil assailant, but when you chase it all the way to fantasia (different from 3D) the situation changes.
#8 Gravity Falls - a world where you must assist the inhabitants in solving a mystery they cannot understand without the help of an outsider who can.
#9 Pocahontas - with a more serious tone involved, what better world than one that reintroduces the theme of the hearts of men filled with darkness?
#10 Wreck-it Ralph - video games, evil bug robots, candy and blasted good fun. i can see how any xehanort would want to defile this wonderland.
#11 Brave - the evil bear spirit and dealing with finding oneself is all it needs to fit into KH, but a gameplay level involving archery would be a great addition.
#12 Big Hero 6 - a japanese-inspired worlds with neon lights, psudeo-marvel characters and AI with feelings and emotions this side of Haley Joel Osment, it's fit pretty good.
#13 ? - the final world has lots of possibilities. if EoTW was a heartless of a world, and TWTNW was the nobody, what about the world as a whole?
#14 Mirage Arena - speaking of arena worlds, the halfway mark always needs a distraction introduced. think of a deeper and improved mirage arena potentially working like GTA Online as a separate experience, or sora training at a secret keyblade wielder cove with Laguna showing you the ropes (and either way multiplayer gets brought back).
3 pixar movies in one game and so many new worlds is a stretch but i'd like to see something similar to this. and tbh i don't see MA happening as much as i'd like.
