Welp, I think this clarifies that there won't be any non-rhythm gameplay in here for anyone who was wondering. I'm fine with that though, it still looks like fun. Also, I'm thankful there isn't any spoilery stuff in this trophy list, unlike KH3.

Yeah, I ain't getting the plat in this game.

Kairi with her keyblade out for the see-the-ending trophy might be a hint she's in the final bossfight.

So, playable TAV seems very likely, given the Diverging Paths trophy.

50 worlds? That is quite a lot!

Yeah. I think the acrylic stands show the teams since this image matches those (meaning DDD Riku's party members might be Meow Wow and Mickey?)

Looks like every character is playable, accept poor Kairi... At least this is how it looks for me. Poor Kairi... can not even be playable in her own game...:cry:

With a separate trophy for all worlds, the actual number must be even higher. I guess revisited worlds throughout the series cout as separate in this game.


Aqua reaffirmed as MC of BBS.

Well this definitely confirms it's a Theatrhythm game with treasure chests and items

Though the synthesis is interesting. Wonder what that's all about. Maybe it replaces the CollectaCard Crystarium (which I definitely never used).

On the surface this looks like a lot of grinding but considering how many songs are and how big the World Tour mode seems, probably not that bad of a Plat.

I hate feeling so torn between versions. I love tracking platinums on PS4, but damn it, if this the perfect kind of game on the Switch...

So many trophies! This is scary! I'm totally playing this game on Beginner Mode! I have no idea what to expect from a Rhythm game, but if it is like Atlantica then I'll suuuuuck at it.

The High Score Master trophy looks tough and the Enemy Juggler sounds amusing. So many things to consider when this comes out.

Theatrhythm has a "Feature Zone" that appears and when you hit the notes right during that time, a special event happens (summons in Battle Stages, chocobos or airship turbo in Field Stages, extended song in Event Stages).

The Unbreaking Melody Trophy shows three icons, and Master Glider mentions "Field Battle Music Stage," so it seems MoM will have the same three stage types. Mickey is probably the stand-in for summons and gliding for chocobos.
If I had to guess since those Trophies are based on time, rather than triggering a special event, it's something which happens if you perform well for a certain amount of time and continues as long as you don't mess up.

50 worlds?

Does KH even have that many?

What's a COM opponent? Don't tell me in addition to rhythm style you have to use the COM card battle system to in some segments. That would be overkill!

Including repeat worlds, I got to 58 (without Deep Jungle and Yen Sid's Tower, but with Dive to the Heart). I counted almost 60 worlds. Taking out repeating worlds, I got over 40 but below 50.

Maybe some will get repeats while others won't or something?

[SPOILER]I was going off memory so I probably forgot some worlds. Also I skipped CoM, Days, and Coded worlds other than Castle Oblivion since they're all basic repeats the worlds from those actual games would just be pretty much the same as the KH1 worlds.

Oh boy, I can't wait to punish myself for something horrible I didn't even do getting all these trophies!

There being treasure chests and items and all is interesting. I'm actually getting pretty excited to dive into this.

It must be "Computer". I imagine you can play vs. an AI-controlled opponent in a pseudo 2-player mode or something. Either that or Nomura really wants to rub salt into the wounds of people who didn't like Chain of Memories for some reason, lol.

Oh! Computer makes more sense. I guess I associate COM with Chain of Memories so much I only see it as that. That's how you know you're obsessed with Kingdom Hearts.

I'm also curious about the treasure chest and synthesis items. I wonder if every character can get a Ultima Keyblade in this game. If so what would Kairi and Xion's look like?

So Riku will just have Mickey? Or maybe he will get third member? im guessing his bat dream eater.

Would the Realm of Darkness be a possibility?

Oh yeah, maybe! Not sure how it could be flown to on the world map but maybe it’s a special world accessed through something.

He might have Sora with him as well. Sora is part of multiple trios after all. Ideally Riku, Sora, and Kairi would be nice.

I’m guessing it will be like this
Sora
Riku
Aqua
Roxas
as mains standing in the middle

But You think it Will it stay like this? Cause I hope to have Xion or terra in the middle as well.

It's definitely possible that we'll be able to choose which character out of our teams is the main or that who it is will be different depending on the song, especially since they'll probably all be playable due to multiplayer mode. Unfortunately, we barely have any footage of playing as different characters and no information about how it works, so we can't really say anything definitively.

Oh like picking your team? That will be awesome
i really want to team
Sora Riku kairi
Sora Roxas ventus
Riku Aqua Axel (just because they all have very bright unique hair colors)

Edit: Also villains if not in game then as dlc, playing as young xehanort will be satisfying.

This looks like a really solid game.
Crafting
50 worlds
Multiple characters

I hope so too. Maybe the next trailer will show how that works. But regardless if they are in the middle or not, looks like we control all three characters via the commands as they come up so I can't complain about placement if they all are playable anyway. Seeing Roxas's unique attack makes me want to see what all the other characters can do too.

More than 50 worlds. I’d say it is probably like closer to 80 if 50 is the middle tier trophy/achievement in that specific set.

But is there 80 worlds in the entire serie?

No, but I imagine there will be repeats for different song variations or iterations of worlds between games.

The trophy list made me more excited. Like others have pointed out, the fact that there's a higher option for worlds after the 50 worlds trophy means there are probably around 60 or so. Definitely looks like more than I ever expected for this game, really. I'll probably still wait for the inevitable price cut, but I'm excited to play it. <3

There is definitely a strong replayability value there.
Also it's insane to think that the assets of KH1 and kh2 are still perfectly usable for a modern game.

"I don't wanna be a keyblade master, I wanna be a HIGH SCORE MASTA" - Sora

The assets of every video game are perfectly usable for a modern game

Yeah, I don’t get why people are dissing the old style of graphics? They looked amazing and the animation quality was amazing even before UE4. I personally wish they had stuck to the old style but just polished it up. I hate being a broken record, but WoFF was the perfect example of how to evolve KH’s art style in a modern game engine.

I don’t dislike KH3’s art direction but I do think the models lost a lot of the charm they had and look almost unfinished and unpolished in a way that is distracting. If they had kept the old style, I think certain moments would have stood out more like Toy Story’s world like when it was first revealed or POTC when you first see that more realistic design. Even the Yozora segment in ReMind would have been even more impactful because it would be very clear Sora isn’t where he belongs anymore.

Or, really, they could have tried matching the CG models? Those models looked way better than the in-game ones and only need some tweaking here and there. Idk...

My point is that the old graphic style is still amazing. Nothing was ever wrong with it and it’s fine that they are going back to it for this game. It looks beautiful and nostalgic in just the right way. I just wish we didn’t have the disparate art direction between it and the modern style in the same game. That is really what is causing these discussions.

I still really love the old style graphics of KH. I certainly enjoy seeing the characters in UE4, and I gushed every time I saw one of my favorite characters in the style, but I always associate the characters in the old style so if anything MoM feels like a return to form. I do love seeing all the textures in UE4, especially when looking at the clothes and seeing the leather text, but my heart belongs with the old style. Especially with Roxas's old design. His neck looks too long in the UE4 when standing straight and it has been bugging me ever since.

I hope MoM has a Data Greeting with all the old style graphics, because that is something I have really longed for. And for the life of me I must play WoFF already. Especially since I hear best girl Refia is in it XD

I like them all and I hope I'll have the chance to listen to them all.

Looking back on this after playing the demo, I think I have to say goodbye to the platinum (unless items make Proud mode and whatever number is required for Platinum 1 rank is easier)

On top of that, I find that with any rhythm game, you have to consistently play it to keep up your skills with it. Getting the platinum with this will require a lot of time and focus. Stop playing it for too long thinking you’ll pick it back up and just grind out the rest and you have already put yourself behind the grind.

FTFY

Yeah those full chain on proud and clear every song on proud are going to be hell for some people. But I believe that after playing through the campaign people will be more accostumed to how the game works so that the challenge isn't that hard.

And yeah, if Theathrythm is anything to go by, beingle able to bring potions or cures into the track help a lot.

Honestly, right now the only thing that makes me want to get the PS4 version instead of the switch is this trophy list, I would love to try and platinum this.

I have always been a standard type of player, also i always been the odd one cause I don’t care about trophy collecting (at least not anymore) I might try proud just for the Lols and laughs for how much I’ll screw up.

Only thing I'm not looking forward to in this list is the Beginner/Standard Trophies
Since the charts are different between difficulties, I have no doubt that these won't stack if you just do the Proud equivalent.

Getting the trophies for high scores will be killer if the main game still has input lag like the demo. That's the main thing I'm fearing. Hope it's fixed, because the game is fun and I wanna aim for the trophies, with my new amazing rhythm skills!

The more I tweak my own TV and game settings, the more I feel like they won’t. They probably anticipated that the game will play differently depending on your set up so they gave us that slider to try and mitigate the lag as much as possible. It sucks.

If that's the case then I won't be scoring A+ for certain songs then. I've tried every setting and there is always some kind of lag when enemies are bunched together or if you get hit it seems to de-synch you. It's still possible to beat the song with the lag, just not high score worthy.

yeah i actually started getting some lag on wave of darkness (switch version), i click the damn button but still says i missed

I'm really not feeling any of this input lag you guys are mentioning

Now that I have perfected my Melody of Memory rhythm skills in the demo, I plan to obtain all these trophies in the real game. I can't wait. I'm hungry for more KH rhythm battles :D
