    It is time to return to Kingdom Hearts, this time with 358/2 Days!
    This is a game that folks told me to, "just watch the movie.", but no! I wish to experience the story as a whole, allowing the little things to give me greater insight of the characters involved.
    Whilst this is a DS game and the graphics are not as pretty as we are used to, I am still excited to play the story of this!
    Let's see what the Organization 13 has been up to during our previous games!

    It's not an exageration to say that this game changed my life. I think it was the first videogame I played that had such an impact on me. It made me feel so much! It made me love video games too
    It was also my first kingdom hearts btw. A bit of a weird entry point people would say, but not a bad one imo

    Xion's name does mean something but it'll be a while until you get to know it.
    It's pronounced more like Shion (the X sound is almost a chi)
    Sea salt ice cream time! You can already see why Roxas loves to go up there so often in 2

    Very happy you decided to play this instead of watching the movie, I love the story of this one. Here some refresher on names if u need it.
    -Ansem seeker of darkness (Kh1 final boss, Xehanort heartless)
    -Ansem the wise (DiZ, guy in red bandages)
    -Xehanort (Ansem the wise’s apprentice that turned into the heartless Ansem seeker of darkness and the nobody Xemnas)
    -Xemnas (Kh2 final boss, Xehanort’s nobody)
    In the intro scene in when Roxas is given his name that was Xemnas not Ansem.
    Also there is a multiplayer mode called mission mode on the title screen but you can still play harder missions there for extra rewards, you should check it out later on, it’s cool.

      @Soulkrist17  2 місяці тому

      Hey welcome in! I did KH1 first, then CoM, then KH2. Now we are here.
      It is taking time to go through the series as I am not playing the games back to back. For my enjoyability, I prefer to avoid playing a series back to back. I also often play large games, like Tales of Vesperia was over 100 episodes, so when I do a project I do it all the way.
      I hope you'll enjoy this series with me!
      As a heads up, there will be a delay after episode 6, as I had to have emergency surgery 2 days ago, so am currently recovering, this cannot record for a bit. I'll be back soon, I promise!

    @ericaransford9770 2 місяці тому +2

    I mean, you're not....wrong, per say, to call him 'Blonde Sora."
    The Diary is the unlockable I mentioned before. You get Roxas's entries for completing certain story-Missions. However, there are alternate, "B-side" entries for each of them that are written from the perspective of other Organization members. Thankfully, you can also see these entries on the collection with the movie version of the game, so you don't need to worry about doing anything for them.
    Marluxia: Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious.....
    You should keep an eye on that mini-screen. Just....for reasons. :P
    Yes! And sometimes, sadly, there are missions and tasks you won't be able to 100% til you get new abilities or better weapons.
    "Well that's not very nice." I do love this joke. It's not my favorite in this game, but it is definitely up there.
    Hmmm....I don't know how spoiler-y it would be at this point to answer your question on how the Nobodies-getting-hearts thing would be, so I'm not going to explain except to say that Sora was a special case in which his Nobody and Somebody somehow existed at the same time, and they can't do that, which is why DiZ was so fixated on getting Roxas to return to Sora.
    What, you thought Larxene was going to wait around? For you?!
    You only equipped one Fire. Oh noooooo.....
    Hey, you remembered Vexen's name!
    You can use the stuff you find on missions! If you go back and look, when you opened the item menu, there was the option to toggle left/right. The stuff you picked up is shown there.
    Larxene is referring to their plot to manipulate Sora, when she talks about 'somebody else'.

    Excited for you to see this game’s story! Like Chain of Memories I feel like it’s able to be more heavy because we don’t have Donald and Goofy with us all the time lol.
    Slight correction: Heartless don’t have hearts themselves. Pureblood heartless are just pure dark beings with no souls or heart, while the emblem heartless hold onto someone’s heart and essentially trap it, but they don’t have hearts themselves that they actually use.
    That’s why they’re still just mindless monsters lol

    There is a way to play this game on 1 screen, sort of in HD if you want to look into it. It brings the hud to the top and gives you full stick camera controls and makes it more playable.
    As for the game itself... I'm not really a fan of the gameplay, but it does have some of the best writing in the series.

    This game is one of the few where there's no secret story stuff locked behind difficulty (Thank goodness!) so it doesn't matter what you choose. That's not to say there isn't anything unlockable, but that's something I'll talk about more once it becomes relevant.
    Sea Salt Ice Cream! Get it memorized, Soul.

      Yupp, this game has a multiplayer mode where you can play as different member of the Organization, as well as a few unlockable characters like Mickey and Riku.
      To be fair! Roxas asked and Axel told him all he had to do was 'find' it. :P But yes, moments like this are why I love this game's story so much.
