Alex MYL Kingdom Hearts 2? Lol God of War, Shadow of the Colossus? They were way better graphics than KH1 BUT KH1 is definitely a good looking game for is actual time.
@@Ninjanzee shadow of Colossus was really good that's why the remake did extremely well a game myself was hyped for God of war is really good for the type of game genre it is lol
Also one big improvment is the existence of unimportant npcs at all. Previous title hat little to zero npcs, even in citys. But now the worlds are full of life.
haunt_me yea it for well with the story/theme but started to become more noticeable once you apparently defeat Ansem seeker of Darkness and supposedly stopping heartless from being a thing so I kinda expected everything to go back to normal
I'm kind of disappointed that Twilight Town was so small in KH3. Previous games had a hub area that you would revisit throughout the journey, but, aside from accessing Pooh's world and mailing postcards, you don't have a reason to return to Twilight Town. You can even access the Gummi Shop and Bistro from menus.
@@AlmightyPolarBear You can access Tram Common, a section of the underground, the forest, and the outside of the mansion. The game renders all of it, so you can travel between all these areas without any loading screens. After the initial visit, I found little reason to go outside of the town itself, aside from picking up collectibles.
@@madmaster0015 You got a really weird idea of KH...Since it's not FF, i want a KH game without FF and Disney, a serious game, the only disney chars i like are Donald and Goofy. And... It is not a crossover, it's an original series. It would have been ever more popular without ff characters.
You're confusing art style with graphics. Resolution, texture quality and resolution, anti aliasing, shadows, ambient occlusion, etc, etc, etc are all things that make graphics what they are. And you can easily compare RDR and KH3 on these. You shouldn't though because they are two different types of game (linear versus open world) and RDR has a much tougher time creating graphics on the scale that KH3 can considering the complexity of RDR. Also you want photorealistic graphics out of KH3, again, don't confuse art style with graphics. Disney Pixar aims for photorealism in it's 3D animated movies despite the art style being cartoonish.
@Planet Alex I take it English isn't your primary language because I don't understand your comment fully nor do I think you were able to understand mine.
My one complaint is that you basically had zero impact on the frozen world and they had elsa sing let it go and I couldn't skip it in fear of missing important plot points.
It drove me up the wall honestly. I have a 4 year old daughter and she basically watches that movie all day. Hearing that song in kh3 made me want to shove a screwdriver in my ears
I don't understand how some people can be bashing this game, it's beautiful. It's never going to be they extremely realistic detailed kind of game like Red Dead or anything like that because of the art style of the game, it would just look wrong, Pirates world in KH3 looks fantastic and that's pushing how realistic they should make the skin textures and models when you main character is an anime character and the 2 side characters are Donald and Goofy.
I have not seen a lot of people complain about the visuals. I think what I've heard the most is about the lack of content, combat, and not living up to players expections.
This video made me realize why Olympus was so strange. That is the only classic Disney world out of the entire game. I kind of wished they balanced out old ones with new ones, but I still love this game.
Even Proud was too easy on KH3. So gutted that Critical hasn't been added... for whatever bizarre reason. KH1 will always have top spot as the most difficult for me.
Honestly of course the graphics are going to look better. New series of systems... the biggest concern I’ve had was the fact they removed ff characters... i was waiting for cloud and sephiroth final face off 😒 it sucks.
I prefer the old style of I and II over III's style. Obviously KH III has more polygons, more detail and better shading which is always a good thing, but that's simply the result of the ps4 being more powerful than the 2 and 3. It's just the style I don't like. In I and II it looks more like the hand drawn style of the classic Disney films. In Kingdom Hearts III everything looks CGI, like the later Pixar films. That's probably why they included so many worlds based on CGI films this time, and they don't look too bad. It's just that I prefer the style of the classic hand drawn Disney films over the CGI Pixar films.
@BonKa I agree. This KH3 is to fast for the pace. Not really enjoy it. I like n miss the KH 1 because it's darker and mysterious. It gave me anxious and anxiety with what make its Kingdom Hearts. ♥ I miss the old days. My favourite is KH 1 and KH 2 only
Gotta say the sound design in the opening level of KH1 kills KH3. Everything sounds way more daunting and epic even when it is much more simple. Kinda hard to beat that moment though, especially since it's a huge nostalgia moment and imo was extremely well done for it's time - again while staying very simple.
I think youre saying exactly what i think sometimes its not about the graphic sound effect and what so ever sometimes its just important the feelings of the scene Kingdom Hearts 3 is a very nice game but i think from the storywise is kh1 and kh2 better because it feels i dont know how to say i think its darker and yeah hahaha i dont know how to explain the feelings
@@IBonKaI think the reason is that in KH3 the majority of the plot happen just at the end and way too fast. KH1 and KH2 had a bit better pacing when it comes to plot.
@@IBonKa I agree with both of you. This KH3 is to fast for the pace. Not really enjoy it. I like n miss the KH 1 because it's darker and mysterious. It gave me anxious and anxiety with what make its Kingdom Hearts. ♥ I miss the old days. My favourite is KH 1 and KH 2 only
@@soul6733 yeah I felt the same. It felt like after you did San Fransokyo the game went into massive overdrive. They could have paced it way better. Plus was anybody else upset that Scala ad Caelum wasnt an actual world? it got it's own world introduction and everything like the normal worlds. Then you go less than 100 yards and you're forced into the final battle. Hell they may well have just not even bothered making that world look like that if that's all you got to explore
"Each world is massive" yeah but they still take the same time to finish. Kh1 has about 8 disney worlds and kh3 has 7 but hoth take the same time to finish
@@itsThan_ it doesnt really depend on how you play. If you explore every secret in a world it still takes the same time as finishing a world like agrabah. The only time waster i can see is searching for lucky emblems. It's a shame that they acted like it was so big that you would have way more to do and it'd take twice as long to finish a world when they take the same time as they always have.
Not to mention that Twilight Town and The Hundred Acre Wood are actually smaller than what they used to be, and that's in addition to San Fransokyo being one small box and one big box. It's also abysmally small if you take the time to glide around it.
I was a bit let down as well. I was hoping that the other areas would unlock as you progressed through the game. Another small complaint is the Flowmotion. In DDD, they changed Traverse Town to fit the new movement system, but the same wasn't done with Twilight Town. Overall, only SanFransokyo felt like it was designed with Flowmotion in mind.
@@colin3674 yeah sorry bro, they're in the game but only as a cut scene, it sucks cause I really wanted to explore every inch of 'em and be all nostalgic
@@PrettyGuardian That was the release date for the KH 1.5. Kingdom Hearts 1 came out for the PS2 in 2002. Like I said earlier, learn how to use Wikipedia and get your facts straight before you confuse people.
To be honest, while the fighting is so much more fluid that I love it, kinda think it is too flashy. It has become spam triangle to win. Maybe they need to nerf how fast you get triangle stuff.
Pretty much all KH games are this imbalanced, mash X to win and ocassionally press Triangle. I don't really mind, I like it that way... Flashy and fun.
KH2 on critical is where the combat system really shine and went from hitting x and occasionally triangle to making it very startegic. Lvl 1 critical runs are amazing.
*SOME SPOILERS AHEAD!* One of my gripes with the game is how anti-clamatic the final boss and the organization 13 bosses felt. Kingdom Hearts generally is known for it's epic boss/over the top and climatic boss fights. The boss fight with Xemnas was unbelievably epic back in KH2, hell one of the most epic bosses in any game if you ask me. It's funny how Xemnas damn near killed Riku and Sora while Sora just absolutely clobbers Master Xehanort who summoned the REAL kingdom hearts and uses the power of the X-Blade in KH3. Terra-Xehanort vs Aqua was also an incredibly climatic and epic boss back in BBS, not to mention how epic the past Boss themes were. Xemnas' theme, Marluxia's Theme, the 13th Dilemma(13th Dilemma and Marluxia's theme are used thankfully) and Young Xehanort's themes are damn near masterpieces. I expected more out of the fight against master xehanort and the organization 13 members since all the other org 13 fights and xehanort fights were epic. The cutscenes were great and the buildup was there, but the battles just weren't. There were some epic and climatic bosses don't get me wrong such as the one with Aqua in the Dark Realm and Mother Gothel's Heartless, I just wish that were the case with the Organization 13 bosses and with the final showdown.
DannyLlerenaTV What are you talking about? The three way fight with ansem, YX, and xemnas was epic as all hell. And the org members were great to fight as well. I don’t see how it’s not epic. I was jamming to the music in the final boss and loved the human Xehanort fight. Not every final boss has to be a big monster thing you know?
Jerry M. The thing is their past fights weren’t “big monsters.” Dark Riku’s fight back in KH1 and KHCoM was epic itself. It was a one on one battle and there was amazing tension. Larxene and Marluxia’s fights were watered down so much it was laughable. I get they couldn’t be as hard in a 3 v 3 but they lost their signature flare with the design choice. I’d rather have fought them one at a time with their power they’ve shown in previous games than take down one and the other already on low hp because the other teammates took them down. It was just so anticlimactic and felt like a rushed way to handle the new Org 13
Swagmeister p Fighting them one on one would’ve taken way too long to get through EVERYONE and I’m fine with how it is right now. The games difficult is a little too easy I can agree with that but how the fights went i would rather have this than take on 1v1’s. Hopefully if they add crit it’ll be challenge or make some sort or data version like in KH2 where it’s a lot tougher. Either way I don’t see how the fights are not epic especially the final boss in which I think it’s the best in the series
Swagmeister The final boss with Xehanort is actually challenging unlike the previous games. I love how aggressive Xehanort is and the music is gets me pumped.The final boss with Xehanort is an enjoyable fight for me and I don’t see how it’s not epic
The thing i enjoy the most about this game is the detailed worlds , sometimes i just take walks and forget about the gameplay it’s so beautiful. I don’t see people giving it credit that much
I'm not sure what it is but I'm struggling a bit with the art style of 3. I think it's the realism like pores being applied to cartoonish characters, sometimes it looks a amazing but other times like Meg's face I'm like why is your face look like rubber / plastic
is not just KH3 that does that. other games now are days also have the issue. the whole rubber/plastic thing. what's funny in KH3 we got a toy story world that would make more sense to make them look rubber/plastic because most toys are like that anyway. but 80% of the game? come on.
@@IHugShortPeople nope they fixed the looking like plastic part so don't even start that crap. look at 2015's Jump Festa trailer compared to the current one.
Unpopular opinion incoming~ As much I also like the camera changes, and how it let's us see a bigger picture and the fight as a whole. I kind of miss the camera from the first game. It felt more close like you're part of Sora, while now you feel more like a third wheeler just observing. Which is not bad either, it gives a chance to enjoy the story and environment fully. But at the same time it doesn't feel as impactful. Like with the fight with Darkside (3:05), in the first game it felt more threatening, likewise in every other fight. While in the later games, I never quite felt that again, it was like the enemies aren't that much of a threat anymore with the camera angles and distance. Although I completely understand why people prefer the camera now compared to then, as it is smoother and easier to control among other things. But at the same time, I would've loved to play through the later games with a camera like the first, as it felt like every enemy was of an equal threat. But that's just my opinion and thoughts~ I do think the camera in KH3 is great too~
I agree wholeheartedly. The zoomed out camera is one of my least favorite trends of modern games. So much graphical fidelity, but so zoomed out you can barely tell. I also miss looking around at assets in 1st person, but the gummi phone kinda does that, albiet with a voice clip each time.
I would say kh1 had some small sound effects that was removed later on in the series (the key chain from the keyblade had a sound effect). Kh2 soundtrack for gummi ship battles was atmospheric and it felt right depending on the map (but they did recycle their music for similar maps as well). I cannot make a clear statement for kh3 sound effects/ designs for i haven’t play the game yet. I’m only stating from what the video has presented and i’ll have to play the game myself to see the differences. Despite that, i love kh since it first came out and it’s not gonna stop me from playing them.
In '02, I got KH for Christmas when I was 12. I was not a fan of Final Fantasy and Disney movies seemed too "childish" to my pre-teen brain. It was 2 years later when I took the shrink wrap off and fell in love with Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, and Disney movies. Now I'm 28 and my 10 year old sond mocks me for playing "old games." He can't beat any game without looking at online wikis, which weren't around in my day, and I never let him forget it. His mother loves the angry and baffled look he always gives me when I tell him that.
*scene from Hercules arena in KH 1 and KH 2 "The people are cheering for ya champ!" **pans to empty flat stands on the side, but with cheering crowd** Apparently everyone is a ghost in this world . . .
Agreed. KH1 was just a boring slog KH2 was more upbeat and got me into customizing my own Gummi KH3 felt a little too big, for very little. Like i can grab a few material or munny, but i think i rather just warp to the next world.
I disagree, they had to end the Xehanort story at some point. It's been going on for 17 damn years. Personally I blame games like Birth By Sleep because what did Birth By Sleep give us other than Unversed, Vanitas, and three characters that could easily have been replaced by anyone else? Did Terra-Xehanort really need to be a thing? Did Old Man Master Xehanort need to be a thing? I also blame 358/2. The story for Kingdom Hearts 3 wrapped up things quite nicely considering how much unneeded fluff was made from games like Birth By Sleep and 358/2 Days.
I have a few big gripes with KH3, but I want to preface it with I like KH3's graphical enhancements and gameplay mechanics... now that said... Gripes #1 was the limited number of worlds, KH2 had the most worlds and was a blast to explore all the different worlds, not only that but each world had sections that were almost a world by themselves, san fransokyo being the biggest offender here, yes its in 3 dimensions but its literally 2 sections otherwise. Twilight town isn't exempt either, but they did combine a few areas that used transitions into 1 map instead of multiple.... however you cannot go into the mansion, you cannot go to the train station, or the clocktower, or the struggle arena, or even "the normal spot"... Thirdly for worlds, each world was finished after 1 play through, where in both KH1 and 2 you had to return to those worlds at least once more after "completing" the level through the first time, not counting side quests, and re-explore, or explore new areas you couldn't in the past, this game if you miss something through the first time you're not doing the level correctly, and should be able to get every chest the first time you play through the level, others you had to get better abilities and come back! #2 was the lack of character development for alot of the side characters, with the exception of Aqua's scene, the rest felt... well.... 2 dimensional and like they were just there to complete the series since they were involved in previous games, with very few real "plot twist" moments for any important characters, and the lack of Final Fantasy Characters, my favorite rom the FF series was always Squall/Leon, probably nostalgia on my part as FF8 was the first FF I played, but even so, I enjoyed his keyblades, and there werent that many keyblades in this game either, and the special "transformation" keyblade powers weren't even unique to each keyblade, they came up with a few concepts for making them unique, then ran out of ideas so they "doubled them" on other keyblades so each one had a special ability, not that I mind doing that mind you, but they tried to present each one as unique... #3 was *cough* Spoiler Alert *cough* What they did to Kairi, she became an afterthought like "oh right he was Sora's driving force in the game, now she's just another warrior of light, who happens to be there "training in the background" untill she was basically Killed off for "shock value" before the final fight... you want to make KH3 a little better? put that point earlier in the game and actually have a mission to save her, yes it'd been done before, but that would have given the game some more depth! Don't get me wrong though, I loved the interactions between Axel and Kairi but Sora barely saw her this game, yes in the end he vows to rescue her again, but... really it felt like they forgot about her and just tossed her there to round it out.
- 1: I don't recall much revisiting in KH1, aside from getting all the chests. But agreed overall I don't mind the less world approach, as long as the worlds that are in, have something to explore, and are actually there. Not just a random quarter cut off. I would've loved to flowmotion up the clock tower in Twilight Town. (said world(s) 5 times in the first sentence. I got a new drinking idea for Kingdom Hearts) - 2.1: Yeah noticed none of the characters really change. Riku got thrown in the trash it felt like. A majority of the Organization didn't get fleshed out, until their literal deathbeds. Vanitas flat out says "I'm just the bad guy." And even Xehanort tried to get some redemption, like wth. - 2.2: I do have to question why the absence of FF characters. Leon and his gang was there from the start, so it would only make sense to have them play some part in the finally. And i was really expecting to see a kid version of Lighting or Noctis just chilling out somewhere in Twilight Town, but nothing. - 2.3: Keyblades could have really used some tweaking. Upgrading them was nice, but i would have loved it if they changed shape like in the phone game. The fact that most reuse the same animation was just... it sucks. Like at least they have a different finish move, so they aren't *Completely* the same. But more needed to be done. - 3: I. FU*KING. HATE IT. *SO MUCH.* Not even going into the back and forth, rigged, game of 7 light 13 dark. (spent too much time trying to do that math, only for the game spit in my face) The fact that we don't get ANYTHING of sorts on Kairis and Leas/Axels training, is just bothersome. The interactions was nice and well done, but i was expecting a level or 2 with them, along with more playable sections with the rest of the team. But we only got 1 Aqua fight, a handful of Rikus, and it was back to Sora show But then she doesn't even do anything in the fight, AND gets kidnapped! "Great job Kairi you finally are a keyblade wielder, and get to do something; and you get kidnpped ... great job ..." And i've been seeing way too much cheap shock tactics in media, so seeing KH3 do it, was just tiresome. Even worse the fact that, *NO ONE DIED IN THIS SERIES!* Even the one dude that died, DIDN'T ACTUALLY EVEN DIE. Here we is! At the very end! Here to help his maniac obviosuly evil as*hole of a friend! "Checkmate!" . . . fff***ck. Like i don't hate the ending, but a lot of it felt so undone. And like you said several of the characters just got tossed out there for the checklist. And that kinda leads into a gripe i have with it. In the entire KH series, it all felt very disconnected. But suddenly in KH3, everything is being brought up and mentioned, just casually out of context. And that's more a gripe with the series rather than KH3 itself. Like, this being the first time we actually see a replica body, should say something.
Ur video is justice for real man its not a contest of the games cause they are parts of the same saga but u can watch the huge improvement ive never seen a game as interactive as that and they still can do much more with that overall the gameplay from start to finish was smooth and movement really swift 10/10 from me
KH3 is for sure a great looking game graphically. But the combat aspect isn't as good as KH2. It just lacks any weight and the slick responsivity that it had. KH3 combat feel floaty and movement is choppy and not fluid. The reaction commands is fun the first times you use them, but then you don't want to use them because they break the flow of the combat and it also break the immersion for me when I am fighting a boss and then I'm summoning a huge carnival jumping around all over a sudden. This is all my opinion.
I have to disagree. I think people just have their nostalgia goggles on when it comes to KH2. The combat(not counting the stupid attractions) is way more fluid and responsive then it was in KH2 and just feels better overall. I can time blocks, do combos, etc just as well as I did in KH2 if not better. I still think KH2 is the better game but just slightly and KH3 easily takes the second best spot in the entire series which BBS had until now for me.
@@MWKRider bro game came out twenty million times literally just replayed them when the HD versions came out at the time the same combat designer isnt present in kh3 that's why it's not focused on key blade combat as much as it's used to, the problem is they added to much shit to do in combat that using the key blade makes it weak
Personally, KH1 had the best *ground combat* for me. It didn't have the "mash Ex or Triangle to win", nor the BBS "mash Square to dodge" problem. The attack animations left you open, and you had to be weary of just doing combos. This is exemplified early on with the optional Riku fight at the start. Not much for aerial combat though.
I would say KH3 is the most balanced in terms of available options. The game really embraces aerial fighting. Trust me. You have to learn how to guard mid-air or you will get your butt kicked often. Also you have to appreciate the game gives you the option to either launch enemies from the ground or slam enemies to the ground mid-combo. That feels good. Admitably, though, the magic is a little too potent.
It was confirmed that Sora was 14 in KH1 and 15 in KH2, DDD and KH3 since they're meant to take place in the same year. So Sora technically is a "young teenager".
After playing phantasy star online for 3 years before the original kingdom hearts came out I had absolutely no problem with the camera because pso and kh1 had the same control scheme.
4:12 I kinda have to disagree with that. After all, KH2 still has two hours worth of voice cutscenes MORE than KH3, _plus_ the text bubble scenes. KH1/2 look incredible for their time. Especially the faces when they aren't fish faced. Still some of the best facial animation in video games; maybe even better than KH3 tbh.
FOR THE WHOLE FRICKEN VIDEO I WAS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE MUSIC IN THE BACKGROUND WAS AND IT’S THE ROKUSHI THEME. Also yes i do call it the rokushi theme.
I just don't like the fact that you can literally cast the new abilities and literally spam the shit out of them without any kind of difficulty and kill everything around you. Completed the game in expert without dying once, meanwhile I remember trying critical mode in KH2 and dying one time after another. This game is beautiful, but it should request more skill to complete.
The thing that blew me away most of all was the game's soundtrack mixing. Not only were familiar recurring tracks remixed uniquely for whatever world they played in, but no longer were 95% of all songs during cutscenes just looped overworld or circumstantial tracks. Virtually all of them were scored dynamically to the animation, which made every cutscene feel like watching a short film. It felt so incredible that I deliberately switched the subtitles off for the entire game just to immerse myself as much as I could; the inability to understand half of Donald's dialogue was a small price to pay.
No, otherwise hades would be trapped in the underworld. The first two games followed ymyhe initial plot somewhat and take place during herculues rise to fame
Mickey and herc have new actors, so does Donald. Soras actor is now around 30. Kairie is played by someone else. Xehanort got a new voice. So familiar sounding characters all sound completely different
@BHowardify Are you not aware of how much they would have to pay to get John Goodman, Billy Crystal, Tom Hanks and Tim Allen? They're all A-list actors (OK maybe not Billy or Tim so much anymore), combined they'd be in the multi millions. The sound-a-likes they got did a pretty damn good job in my opinion. FYI Woody was voiced by Jim Hanks, Tom's brother. He does all the voice work for Woody outside of the movies.
My only real complaint about KH3's story is the lack of interaction with Terra, Aqua, Ventus, Roxas, and Xion. Those five felt pretty rushed...I really wanted to see them have a little more screen time than what they got. Other than that, I was pretty happy with it.
There is a weird buzz in some of your sentences. I think your voice is resonating with something close to the mic. 0:220:551:203:333:414:205:085:116:08
lol good catch, but that's not my voice resonating, at least.. not in the sense you're thinking of. That's Zazu, my parrot. He likes to record with me.
I like how a lot of comparison points have both objective, *and* subjective, aspects to the same subject. Take sound for example: you can objectively determine what game has better audio quality, from a technical level. But asking what game has the better sound effects/music/etc. is entirely subjective in nature.
Like an actual town would be. THERE'S EVEN PLANT LIFE NOW! And apparently everyone just chills on rooftops in this town . . . that seems extremely unsafe but okay.
When you think about it, the first game being made in a time where we didn’t have as many 3D and graphical tools as we would have now, the developers really did do a great job in putting dedication to the game. You can tell because of the little things they added back then to make the gameplay more immersive and eye catching to the player.
The fact that they can make a video game look identical to a movie is incredible. At some point later through out the game it literally felt like I was watching a scene out of a series. The only thing I wish hadn’t happened was having all of the damn final fantasy characters taken out. It’d be incredible to have a few of those worlds added in for a change. Also put cloud and sepiroth back those boss fights were my favorite!
I really don't like the new style at all. While the Disney characters look pretty good, I feel like a lot of the Kingdom Hearts characters look awful. I found myself really put off with how some of the Org. XIII members look, for example. I felt like with the improvement in technology, they really could have made this game breathtakingly beautiful, and instead they "kiddy-fied" everything. The first two games I felt had a good balance of being kid-friendly while also not going too overboard with it. From what little I have experienced so far, it feels very much like they have abandoned those who have been fans of KH since childhood and instead are too concerned with appealing to little kids. I feel like it's possible to achieve both if done correctly. I have not finished the game yet, not even close, but at this point, I am very very concerned. I have been waiting for this game since I was 12, and I really want it to be amazing. Again, these are just my first impressions. My opinions may very well change.
BHowardify Don’t put words in my mouth. I never said something newer is better but I don’t see how you think the characters look bad. They look pretty good to me. I see people’s concerns and I agree somewhat but I still enjoy the game. I don’t care if you think the game is not good. I think it is so if you think the game isn’t good that’s your loss
BHowardify First off, the game did not take 13 years to make. It took 5 to 6 years to make. If you think that KH2 is better than every aspect then graphics than that’s your loss. Go and play KH2 where the worlds are straight hallways and little rooms because apparently that’s better than wider vertical worlds in KH3. And you continue to put words in my mouth because I NEVER said that newer is better. I feel that this game is pretty good in my eyes. But if you don’t think that like I said it’s your loss
BHowardify Alright dude. I’m gonna just end it here. If you don’t think it lived up the hype that’s completely your lost. I am enjoying the game a lot and I believe it did for the most part. It’s sad to see some people don’t enjoy it for dumb reasons but I think it’s a great game and well deserved the hype
I still preffer the originals 3d, idk why but the new one feels too clean its wierd. what I hate its that everything its like that, even the life bar avatars, way better when they were drawn.
@@Lightguardian_HOH So is the people claiming this game is amazing, while is rushed, worlds are totally disconected from the story and mean nothing. A dog can finish the game by smashing buttons and doing automatic flashy shit. But nostalgia Will make fanboy love it anyways.
Another thing I noticed is the use of Subsurface Scattering, where when a light exists behind an object, it gives it a glow, like candle wax. You can see this on donald's beak, and some character's ears.
This KH3 is to fast for the pace. Not really enjoy it. I like n miss the KH 1 because it's darker and mysterious. It gave me anxious and anxiety with what make its Kingdom Hearts. ♥ I miss the old days. My favourite is KH 1 and KH 2 only
Dracula The Vampire the X is locked at 4k 60frames at all times with 0 drop. PS4 pro drops to 40frames most of the time. But OG XboxOne can’t handle much at all these days sadly.
@@BryceGub X is not locked 60 at 4K, it drops alot of times below it to 40-50's. The only way to get locked 60 fps in this game is PS4 PRO forced to 1080P resolution. Watch DF's video.
Also there is no anisotropic filtering filtering in KH1 2 or 3. Why did you not enable bi linear filtering in pcsx2 when comparing KH1?? It's like that in the console.
Something about the old sound mixing has a more realistic feel. Like for instance, In kh1 you could hear Sora's key chain jangling where as in kh3 you mainly hear him running and grunting. When you're in the gummi ship though, audio and video changes in kh3 definitely trump the older games
@@J01789 NO ONE DIES in this fucking game. this shit is like dragonball, death means nothing. freakin' boring. sora saves kairi and is gone for good. everyone plays bumerang on the beach. fucking cringy. the secret ending is just a fucking ad, lol. nomura is salty, i guess ;D
The final mix versions have such a big resolution change, it will affect your comparison, just saying. You should do the original and the FM separately.
You are not alone. I don't like kh3, the more I see it the more I don't like it. The only one good thing is the toy story world because nostalgic feelings. I expected to fight Sephiroth, but no FF characters this time.
@@mythologiasend3264 plus they could have made it a lot longer. There are things I'm upset about, you would think close to 15 years it would be like a 200 gig game, with a lot of story, A LOT of new characters, old ones, etc, plus they could have made the mechanics better. I could write a dissertation on the things they went wrong. I'm genuinely upset.
@@billyd9258 you are 100% right. Instead they hit the nostalgia button for people waiting for that 13 years. This game is nothing more than a nostalgia machine, nothing new or special, minimum content.
Really easy to do this. Kingdom hearts has final fantasy characters, is not obviously controlled in every way to make Disney characters look good and everyone else look bad Kingdom Hearts 3 has no final fantasy despite this series being a Disney meets final fantasy series, then its all about how clearly Disney inteferred to make sure the entire game was about any movie that came out in the last 5-10 years, DON"T FORGET FROZEN, PEOPLE LOVED THAT! IT'LL BE GREAT FUN FOR GAMERS TO WATCH A LADY SING FOR 5 MINUTES AND HAVE NO GAMEPLAY. I guess Kingdom hearts 1 Wins..?
Iv never had trouble with the kh1 camera but iv heard lots y’all about it, I feel like even though the ps2 games worlds were mostly bearen and felt empty the sound mixing like in twilight town as you ran across then pavement was just so good with the music and not to mention the shadows made it feel really alive even if it was really minanilist to today’s games
Sora moves way too fast in KH3. I want the gentle pace back Edit: except for some worlds like Erendale and Toy Box the fast running feels good but certainly not Twighlight Town
You probably haven't played the game yourself. The fast running is so much more fun when you play the game and helps traversing the world's a lot (not to mention it's useful in combat)
it looks really great but these guys had 13 years to polish the shit out of this game, witcher 3 and red dead 2 had less time and those games looks so fantastic.
Good Art style > realistic modern graphics. Also the Pirates of the Caribbean looked great and had better looking water then most modern games these days.
Yo have to realize that the graphics must match the area Sora is in. If you’re in Olympus, getting God of War 3 style graphics would just be weird (amazing though) because Hercules is a Disney animation. An old one, at that. Whereas with Pirates of the Caribbean (the absolute best world and a voice actor that did jack sparrows voice spot on) the wold is extremely realistic. Water looks like real water, the characters have immense amounts of detail to show they are human, ships are quite detailed, etc. The graphics in this game blew me away. Especially toy story, I hated toy story even as a kid. I always thought it was stupid. However, when I played this world it was awesome. The graphics are very Pixar like but when you venture outside and you see the cars and the street, it looks so real it’s crazy haha. The worlds were great, Sora was great....I just wish they didn’t leave us hanging. I thought this was the end of kingdom hearts. Looks like the real kingdom hearts is just beginning though, can’t wait for kh4.
@@ryujinjakka4518 Nomura said multiple times in interview that KH3 would just be the end of the Dark Seeker (Xehanort) saga. And the story would continue.
Good video but honestly of course the graphics are better. Last big KH title was on the PS2. Sure you’ve got 2.8 but KH3 is a whole different animal. They did a great job. Only few things I have a problem with is some of the writing, voice acting executions, and not much screen time for Kairi and the other original characters. Also, I was really looking forward to see what happened to Cloud and Sephiroth after their battle in KH2, so if they could bring back FF characters that’d be great!
I completely agree that the tradition 2D characters look odd. When I saw Maleficent in the earlier trailers she look so strange; seeing shading on either side of her exaggerated nose was just... odd. But the modern 3D worlds look insane; That's a whole lot of detail!
Should also have added in a bit about the Caribbean level and how it goes even further with the models of Sora, Donald and Goofy. the featherwork on Donald alone amazed me through the entire world.
My biggest problem is the sound mixing. They didn't even add in a sound mixing tool! While the music is somewhat low in the mix, I have to half my volume compared to previous games or the dialogues will blow my ears out. I also kind of miss the catchiness of the world themes in the other games. I mean, KH3 music is nice and atmospheric on a symphonic sort of way, but the earlier games were catchy enough to make two books and CD's of really awesome piano arrangements
I have to disagree with his critique of the animations in kh1 being too abrupt, as well as him saying the levels are too simplistic. (They certainly are simplistic in kh2) Kh1 level design highlighted exploration in a non-linear fashion sprinkled with puzzles and platforming challenges, kh3 level design was definitely inspired by kh1's but i think falls in varying its big rooms and rarely involves backtracking bc each room is so large. The quicker animations in kh1 make the game snappier whereas the floaty animations in kh3 giver you less control. Other than that great video.
When it got to the sound comparison, the music is an obvious upgrade, since KH3 isn't restricted by the Original PlayStation's limitations. But generally, ESPECIALLY the Destati fight, I kinda liked the old Keyblade hitting effects & stuff.
Not gonna lie when I got to twilight town and head the music eye had tears in my eyes I have so much nostalgia of running around twilight town as roxas screwing around and going through the story (by the way I loved the intro as roxas) so when I got to hear the music that was emotional.
It just shows how good KH1 looked for it's time.
Absolutely
For a game that originally came out in 2002 it did look really good
I have lost of ps2, and kh2 is the best graphicaly i cant think of anything better
Alex MYL Kingdom Hearts 2? Lol God of War, Shadow of the Colossus? They were way better graphics than KH1 BUT KH1 is definitely a good looking game for is actual time.
@@Ninjanzee shadow of Colossus was really good that's why the remake did extremely well a game myself was hyped for God of war is really good for the type of game genre it is lol
Also one big improvment is the existence of unimportant npcs at all. Previous title hat little to zero npcs, even in citys. But now the worlds are full of life.
Yeah totally agree. The tangled world (in the kingdom area) looks great. Places like twilight town look weird and empty in kh2
The PS4 version looks better!
the absence of npcs gave me this weird feeling of loneliness as a kid and made the game more eerie. fit well with the story/theme of the older games
haunt_me yea it for well with the story/theme but started to become more noticeable once you apparently defeat Ansem seeker of Darkness and supposedly stopping heartless from being a thing so I kinda expected everything to go back to normal
And now the worlds are empty of level design.
0/10 no skateboarding in Twilight Town in KH3.
But 10/10 the game explains why the skateboard is gone. It's already passe, or so the townsfolk say.
I'm kind of disappointed that Twilight Town was so small in KH3. Previous games had a hub area that you would revisit throughout the journey, but, aside from accessing Pooh's world and mailing postcards, you don't have a reason to return to Twilight Town. You can even access the Gummi Shop and Bistro from menus.
@@jardex2275 Wait, is there no mansion, forest, and train station to access?! :O
@@AlmightyPolarBear No train station, you can't go inside the mansion, but the forest is there.
@@AlmightyPolarBear You can access Tram Common, a section of the underground, the forest, and the outside of the mansion. The game renders all of it, so you can travel between all these areas without any loading screens.
After the initial visit, I found little reason to go outside of the town itself, aside from picking up collectibles.
Jardex22 it isn’t as important as it was in kh2
I like how Sora is literally the self insert in disney movies.
He fit so right in, in the San Fransokyo world. Like he belonged in that movie.
He kinda seemed like Hiro's older brother/cousin
Can we get an F in that chat for sora
The majority of Sora's time in Arendale was spent sitting in the backgroud while the movie Frozen happened.
One of my favorite thing about Kingdom Hearts is seeing HOW they fit Sora into the worlds.
The worst downgrade is the fact that we don't have Final Fantasy characters anymore...
Yeah ive noticed that. Thats so strange. I was hoping id see some sign of cloud or even leon further along but nothing yet
Well, i like that there aren't ff chars.
@@kaz7886 You like having no FF characters in the Disney-FF crossover series? Ok.
Maybe they didn't make a deal with the copyright owners. OH WAIT....
@@madmaster0015 You got a really weird idea of KH...Since it's not FF, i want a KH game without FF and Disney, a serious game, the only disney chars i like are Donald and Goofy. And... It is not a crossover, it's an original series. It would have been ever more popular without ff characters.
I love how people compare KH3 with games like RDR graphic wise lol. Like. No. We don't want photorealistic graphics out of KH game lmao.
The caribbean world is really good and realistic thou
Exactly. I read an article about this. Im like... Does kh look like it was aiming for realism? Has it EVER looked for realism??!
I know you meant Red Dead Redemption but I read it at first as Rupaul's Drag Race
You're confusing art style with graphics. Resolution, texture quality and resolution, anti aliasing, shadows, ambient occlusion, etc, etc, etc are all things that make graphics what they are. And you can easily compare RDR and KH3 on these. You shouldn't though because they are two different types of game (linear versus open world) and RDR has a much tougher time creating graphics on the scale that KH3 can considering the complexity of RDR. Also you want photorealistic graphics out of KH3, again, don't confuse art style with graphics. Disney Pixar aims for photorealism in it's 3D animated movies despite the art style being cartoonish.
@Planet Alex I take it English isn't your primary language because I don't understand your comment fully nor do I think you were able to understand mine.
My one complaint is that you basically had zero impact on the frozen world and they had elsa sing let it go and I couldn't skip it in fear of missing important plot points.
As much as I hate to admit it, it's a good song so oh well lol
@@gavinwilliams9367 which one? let it go or the snowman one? LOL
@@RAnDomMaN0394 let it go, I wish it had olof sing, he was the best thing in that movie in my opinion lol
It drove me up the wall honestly. I have a 4 year old daughter and she basically watches that movie all day. Hearing that song in kh3 made me want to shove a screwdriver in my ears
@Sol 7 KJR HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Funny you mention that... *Glares at Arendelle and Corona*
I don't understand how some people can be bashing this game, it's beautiful. It's never going to be they extremely realistic detailed kind of game like Red Dead or anything like that because of the art style of the game, it would just look wrong, Pirates world in KH3 looks fantastic and that's pushing how realistic they should make the skin textures and models when you main character is an anime character and the 2 side characters are Donald and Goofy.
RIGHT i dislike pirates of the Caribbean world but it was fucking beautiful
The only real problem I found with KH3 is that it's way too easy.
There is a lot wrong with this game but Hercules world aside graphics aren't one of them.
I loved the game but I had WAY more problems than just graphics with this game.
I have not seen a lot of people complain about the visuals. I think what I've heard the most is about the lack of content, combat, and not living up to players expections.
This video made me realize why Olympus was so strange. That is the only classic Disney world out of the entire game. I kind of wished they balanced out old ones with new ones, but I still love this game.
I cannot believe you didnt compare cutscene jack sparrow. In kh3 the pirates cutscenes looked almost uncanny cood
MrMW2nd It looks Like It’s in real life
It brought me back to the days of drooling over the Onimusha 3 trailer
I heard the pirates world is easily the worst one in terms of story and script though.

Donald still doesn't heal you
Actually Donald does heal in KH3. You just have to be close to him.
Except for when you heal yourself .-.
He's healed me far more than i thought he would in KH3 so i wouldn't understand how he isn't healing others
Speak for yourself bb, he was healing me. ~
Yeah idk what you played but on proud mode, homie ran across the field to heal me lol
“Short child to a young teenager”
Actually, Sora was surprisingly 14 in kh1. He’s either 16 or 17 in kh3. Late bloomer I guess.
ye he looked like he was 10 or something lol
Hes actually
15 in kh2 and kh3
and in kh3 remind he is 16
Which makes riku 17 and kairi 16 too
Honestly of course the graphics are going to look better. New series of systems... the biggest concern I’ve had was the fact they removed ff characters... i was waiting for cloud and sephiroth final face off 😒 it sucks.
I prefer the old style of I and II over III's style. Obviously KH III has more polygons, more detail and better shading which is always a good thing, but that's simply the result of the ps4 being more powerful than the 2 and 3. It's just the style I don't like. In I and II it looks more like the hand drawn style of the classic Disney films. In Kingdom Hearts III everything looks CGI, like the later Pixar films. That's probably why they included so many worlds based on CGI films this time, and they don't look too bad. It's just that I prefer the style of the classic hand drawn Disney films over the CGI Pixar films.
@BonKa I agree. This KH3 is to fast for the pace. Not really enjoy it. I like n miss the KH 1 because it's darker and mysterious. It gave me anxious and anxiety with what make its Kingdom Hearts. ♥ I miss the old days. My favourite is KH 1 and KH 2 only
gotta say kh2 has the better twilight town theme. the more simple and relaxing tone sets the mood way better
hhheeeccckkk526 I agree with you there tbh. I do like the kh3 theme for twilight town but the original theme is better in terms of atmosphere/mood
Gotta say the sound design in the opening level of KH1 kills KH3.
Everything sounds way more daunting and epic even when it is much more simple.
Kinda hard to beat that moment though, especially since it's a huge nostalgia moment and imo was extremely well done for it's time - again while staying very simple.
I think youre saying exactly what i think sometimes its not about the graphic sound effect and what so ever sometimes its just important the feelings of the scene
Kingdom Hearts 3 is a very nice game but i think from the storywise is kh1 and kh2 better because it feels i dont know how to say i think its darker and yeah hahaha i dont know how to explain the feelings
@@IBonKaI think the reason is that in KH3 the majority of the plot happen just at the end and way too fast. KH1 and KH2 had a bit better pacing when it comes to plot.
@@soul6733 Yeah youre right

@@soul6733 yeah I felt the same. It felt like after you did San Fransokyo the game went into massive overdrive. They could have paced it way better. Plus was anybody else upset that Scala ad Caelum wasnt an actual world? it got it's own world introduction and everything like the normal worlds. Then you go less than 100 yards and you're forced into the final battle. Hell they may well have just not even bothered making that world look like that if that's all you got to explore
"Each world is massive" yeah but they still take the same time to finish. Kh1 has about 8 disney worlds and kh3 has 7 but hoth take the same time to finish
@@itsThan_ it doesnt really depend on how you play. If you explore every secret in a world it still takes the same time as finishing a world like agrabah. The only time waster i can see is searching for lucky emblems. It's a shame that they acted like it was so big that you would have way more to do and it'd take twice as long to finish a world when they take the same time as they always have.
Not to mention that Twilight Town and The Hundred Acre Wood are actually smaller than what they used to be, and that's in addition to San Fransokyo being one small box and one big box. It's also abysmally small if you take the time to glide around it.
Took me 7 yrs to finally complete Kingdom Hearts 1
@@luketory4684 considering that it's a less than 30 hour game that's all on you buddy
Seeing how long ago they announced the game being in development, I definitely expected there to be more worlds in 3
The only thing I'm disappointed in is Twilight Town.
Yeah I was hoping to see all the areas but the neighborhood is cool just limited
I was a bit let down as well. I was hoping that the other areas would unlock as you progressed through the game.
Another small complaint is the Flowmotion. In DDD, they changed Traverse Town to fit the new movement system, but the same wasn't done with Twilight Town. Overall, only SanFransokyo felt like it was designed with Flowmotion in mind.
I was really hoping the destiny islands would be playable as well

Love the comparison videos
The beauty of the graphics is one of my top three favorite aspects of KH3. The game is an absolutely gorgeous work of art.
To be honest, while the fighting is so much more fluid that I love it, kinda think it is too flashy. It has become spam triangle to win. Maybe they need to nerf how fast you get triangle stuff.
That was also the case in kingdom hearts 2
Pretty much all KH games are this imbalanced, mash X to win and ocassionally press Triangle.
I don't really mind, I like it that way... Flashy and fun.
KH2 on critical is where the combat system really shine and went from hitting x and occasionally triangle to making it very startegic.
Lvl 1 critical runs are amazing.
@@Valoe7 so...basically you agree kh2 is mash x to win unless you play on balls hard difficulties. It's okay to admit the series isn't balanced
@@PrincessNine pretty much because you can't mash x to win, especially on fights like the data organization members.
*SOME SPOILERS AHEAD!* One of my gripes with the game is how anti-clamatic the final boss and the organization 13 bosses felt. Kingdom Hearts generally is known for it's epic boss/over the top and climatic boss fights. The boss fight with Xemnas was unbelievably epic back in KH2, hell one of the most epic bosses in any game if you ask me. It's funny how Xemnas damn near killed Riku and Sora while Sora just absolutely clobbers Master Xehanort who summoned the REAL kingdom hearts and uses the power of the X-Blade in KH3. Terra-Xehanort vs Aqua was also an incredibly climatic and epic boss back in BBS, not to mention how epic the past Boss themes were. Xemnas' theme, Marluxia's Theme, the 13th Dilemma(13th Dilemma and Marluxia's theme are used thankfully) and Young Xehanort's themes are damn near masterpieces. I expected more out of the fight against master xehanort and the organization 13 members since all the other org 13 fights and xehanort fights were epic. The cutscenes were great and the buildup was there, but the battles just weren't. There were some epic and climatic bosses don't get me wrong such as the one with Aqua in the Dark Realm and Mother Gothel's Heartless, I just wish that were the case with the Organization 13 bosses and with the final showdown.
DannyLlerenaTV What are you talking about? The three way fight with ansem, YX, and xemnas was epic as all hell. And the org members were great to fight as well. I don’t see how it’s not epic. I was jamming to the music in the final boss and loved the human Xehanort fight. Not every final boss has to be a big monster thing you know?
Jerry M. The thing is their past fights weren’t “big monsters.” Dark Riku’s fight back in KH1 and KHCoM was epic itself. It was a one on one battle and there was amazing tension. Larxene and Marluxia’s fights were watered down so much it was laughable. I get they couldn’t be as hard in a 3 v 3 but they lost their signature flare with the design choice. I’d rather have fought them one at a time with their power they’ve shown in previous games than take down one and the other already on low hp because the other teammates took them down. It was just so anticlimactic and felt like a rushed way to handle the new Org 13
Swagmeister p Fighting them one on one would’ve taken way too long to get through EVERYONE and I’m fine with how it is right now. The games difficult is a little too easy I can agree with that but how the fights went i would rather have this than take on 1v1’s. Hopefully if they add crit it’ll be challenge or make some sort or data version like in KH2 where it’s a lot tougher. Either way I don’t see how the fights are not epic especially the final boss in which I think it’s the best in the series
Swagmeister The final boss with Xehanort is actually challenging unlike the previous games. I love how aggressive Xehanort is and the music is gets me pumped.The final boss with Xehanort is an enjoyable fight for me and I don’t see how it’s not epic
@@jerrym.7134 These people are just finding some way to bitch ignore them.

The thing i enjoy the most about this game is the detailed worlds , sometimes i just take walks and forget about the gameplay it’s so beautiful. I don’t see people giving it credit that much
I'm not sure what it is but I'm struggling a bit with the art style of 3. I think it's the realism like pores being applied to cartoonish characters, sometimes it looks a amazing but other times like Meg's face I'm like why is your face look like rubber / plastic
I feel like A LOT of them look like plastic, especially the Kingdom Hearts-exclusive characters.
It looks beautiful
Everybody in the game looks like rubber or plastic, and it's a damn shame.
is not just KH3 that does that. other games now are days also have the issue. the whole rubber/plastic thing.
what's funny in KH3 we got a toy story world that would make more sense to make them look rubber/plastic because most toys are like that anyway. but 80% of the game? come on.
@@IHugShortPeople nope they fixed the looking like plastic part so don't even start that crap. look at 2015's Jump Festa trailer compared to the current one.
Best comparison UA-camrs
Unpopular opinion incoming~ As much I also like the camera changes, and how it let's us see a bigger picture and the fight as a whole. I kind of miss the camera from the first game. It felt more close like you're part of Sora, while now you feel more like a third wheeler just observing. Which is not bad either, it gives a chance to enjoy the story and environment fully. But at the same time it doesn't feel as impactful. Like with the fight with Darkside (3:05), in the first game it felt more threatening, likewise in every other fight. While in the later games, I never quite felt that again, it was like the enemies aren't that much of a threat anymore with the camera angles and distance. Although I completely understand why people prefer the camera now compared to then, as it is smoother and easier to control among other things. But at the same time, I would've loved to play through the later games with a camera like the first, as it felt like every enemy was of an equal threat. But that's just my opinion and thoughts~ I do think the camera in KH3 is great too~
I agree wholeheartedly. The zoomed out camera is one of my least favorite trends of modern games. So much graphical fidelity, but so zoomed out you can barely tell. I also miss looking around at assets in 1st person, but the gummi phone kinda does that, albiet with a voice clip each time.
Kh1 camera sucks because of the glitches. Memories are always pink.
2.9 has such good detail cant wait for three
I would say kh1 had some small sound effects that was removed later on in the series (the key chain from the keyblade had a sound effect). Kh2 soundtrack for gummi ship battles was atmospheric and it felt right depending on the map (but they did recycle their music for similar maps as well). I cannot make a clear statement for kh3 sound effects/ designs for i haven’t play the game yet. I’m only stating from what the video has presented and i’ll have to play the game myself to see the differences. Despite that, i love kh since it first came out and it’s not gonna stop me from playing them.
I'm kind of missing the "old Disney" worlds though
the kh1 for ps2, I dunno what ps2 you've used, but kh1 graphics never looked that horrible for me, ever.
thats called nostalgia filter hd
Ashen one you mean nostalgia goggle 4K
It is why they increased resolution and other things so it can be as clean as we imagined it when it was fuzzy.
CRT televisions are blurry. Modern displays are not, so you get to see every detail. These old games were not intended to be viewed like that.
@@surprisedwoody1025 so it where looking good as today but CRT tv distortion tricked our mind back then?
Kh1 was so unbelievably good for it’s time. I can still play it to this day and probably forever and not feel like it’s too old to enjoy
In '02, I got KH for Christmas when I was 12. I was not a fan of Final Fantasy and Disney movies seemed too "childish" to my pre-teen brain. It was 2 years later when I took the shrink wrap off and fell in love with Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, and Disney movies. Now I'm 28 and my 10 year old sond mocks me for playing "old games." He can't beat any game without looking at online wikis, which weren't around in my day, and I never let him forget it. His mother loves the angry and baffled look he always gives me when I tell him that.

This kh3 version got me into gummi ships. lol
Agreed.
KH1 was just a boring slog
KH2 was more upbeat and got me into customizing my own Gummi
KH3 felt a little too big, for very little. Like i can grab a few material or munny, but i think i rather just warp to the next world.
I’m pretty sure no one likes it... 😒 exactly the one in 3 was soo confusing for me...🤦🏻♂️
I thought I was the only one.
the graphics gameplay and quality of life stuff may have been improved but god damn did the story tank in terms of quality
I disagree, they had to end the Xehanort story at some point. It's been going on for 17 damn years. Personally I blame games like Birth By Sleep because what did Birth By Sleep give us other than Unversed, Vanitas, and three characters that could easily have been replaced by anyone else? Did Terra-Xehanort really need to be a thing? Did Old Man Master Xehanort need to be a thing? I also blame 358/2.
The story for Kingdom Hearts 3 wrapped up things quite nicely considering how much unneeded fluff was made from games like Birth By Sleep and 358/2 Days.
I have a few big gripes with KH3, but I want to preface it with I like KH3's graphical enhancements and gameplay mechanics...
now that said...
Gripes
#1 was the limited number of worlds, KH2 had the most worlds and was a blast to explore all the different worlds, not only that but each world had sections that were almost a world by themselves, san fransokyo being the biggest offender here, yes its in 3 dimensions but its literally 2 sections otherwise. Twilight town isn't exempt either, but they did combine a few areas that used transitions into 1 map instead of multiple.... however you cannot go into the mansion, you cannot go to the train station, or the clocktower, or the struggle arena, or even "the normal spot"... Thirdly for worlds, each world was finished after 1 play through, where in both KH1 and 2 you had to return to those worlds at least once more after "completing" the level through the first time, not counting side quests, and re-explore, or explore new areas you couldn't in the past, this game if you miss something through the first time you're not doing the level correctly, and should be able to get every chest the first time you play through the level, others you had to get better abilities and come back!
#2 was the lack of character development for alot of the side characters, with the exception of Aqua's scene, the rest felt... well.... 2 dimensional and like they were just there to complete the series since they were involved in previous games, with very few real "plot twist" moments for any important characters, and the lack of Final Fantasy Characters, my favorite rom the FF series was always Squall/Leon, probably nostalgia on my part as FF8 was the first FF I played, but even so, I enjoyed his keyblades, and there werent that many keyblades in this game either, and the special "transformation" keyblade powers weren't even unique to each keyblade, they came up with a few concepts for making them unique, then ran out of ideas so they "doubled them" on other keyblades so each one had a special ability, not that I mind doing that mind you, but they tried to present each one as unique...
#3 was *cough* Spoiler Alert *cough* What they did to Kairi, she became an afterthought like "oh right he was Sora's driving force in the game, now she's just another warrior of light, who happens to be there "training in the background" untill she was basically Killed off for "shock value" before the final fight... you want to make KH3 a little better? put that point earlier in the game and actually have a mission to save her, yes it'd been done before, but that would have given the game some more depth!
Don't get me wrong though, I loved the interactions between Axel and Kairi but Sora barely saw her this game, yes in the end he vows to rescue her again, but... really it felt like they forgot about her and just tossed her there to round it out.
- 1: I don't recall much revisiting in KH1, aside from getting all the chests. But agreed overall
I don't mind the less world approach, as long as the worlds that are in, have something to explore, and are actually there. Not just a random quarter cut off. I would've loved to flowmotion up the clock tower in Twilight Town.
(said world(s) 5 times in the first sentence. I got a new drinking idea for Kingdom Hearts)
- 2.1: Yeah noticed none of the characters really change. Riku got thrown in the trash it felt like. A majority of the Organization didn't get fleshed out, until their literal deathbeds. Vanitas flat out says "I'm just the bad guy." And even Xehanort tried to get some redemption, like wth.
- 2.2: I do have to question why the absence of FF characters. Leon and his gang was there from the start, so it would only make sense to have them play some part in the finally. And i was really expecting to see a kid version of Lighting or Noctis just chilling out somewhere in Twilight Town, but nothing.
- 2.3: Keyblades could have really used some tweaking. Upgrading them was nice, but i would have loved it if they changed shape like in the phone game. The fact that most reuse the same animation was just... it sucks.
Like at least they have a different finish move, so they aren't *Completely* the same. But more needed to be done.
- 3: I. FU*KING. HATE IT. *SO MUCH.*
Not even going into the back and forth, rigged, game of 7 light 13 dark. (spent too much time trying to do that math, only for the game spit in my face)
The fact that we don't get ANYTHING of sorts on Kairis and Leas/Axels training, is just bothersome.
The interactions was nice and well done, but i was expecting a level or 2 with them, along with more playable sections with the rest of the team. But we only got 1 Aqua fight, a handful of Rikus, and it was back to Sora show
But then she doesn't even do anything in the fight, AND gets kidnapped!
"Great job Kairi you finally are a keyblade wielder, and get to do something; and you get kidnpped ... great job ..."
And i've been seeing way too much cheap shock tactics in media, so seeing KH3 do it, was just tiresome.
Even worse the fact that, *NO ONE DIED IN THIS SERIES!* Even the one dude that died, DIDN'T ACTUALLY EVEN DIE.
Here we is! At the very end! Here to help his maniac obviosuly evil as*hole of a friend! "Checkmate!" . . . fff***ck.
Like i don't hate the ending, but a lot of it felt so undone.
And like you said several of the characters just got tossed out there for the checklist.
And that kinda leads into a gripe i have with it.
In the entire KH series, it all felt very disconnected. But suddenly in KH3, everything is being brought up and mentioned, just casually out of context. And that's more a gripe with the series rather than KH3 itself.
Like, this being the first time we actually see a replica body, should say something.
Ur video is justice for real man its not a contest of the games cause they are parts of the same saga but u can watch the huge improvement ive never seen a game as interactive as that and they still can do much more with that overall the gameplay from start to finish was smooth and movement really swift 10/10 from me
Too bad there's no Muppet world. You could've met your inspiration, Kermit! 😂
I would have loved a Muppet world! I was also hoping for Star Wars and Marvel. (I haven't finished yet, but I doubt I'll see those)
I was hoping for at least a Incredibles world and a wreck it Ralph world would be cool
oh well... since Muppet isn't a disneything
Jessy H. Disney owns the Muppets though so if they wanted they could put them in. Would be interesting
IHugShortPeople I really don’t see Marvel or Star Wars being worlds in KH they aren’t Disney/Pixar original
KH3 is for sure a great looking game graphically. But the combat aspect isn't as good as KH2. It just lacks any weight and the slick responsivity that it had. KH3 combat feel floaty and movement is choppy and not fluid. The reaction commands is fun the first times you use them, but then you don't want to use them because they break the flow of the combat and it also break the immersion for me when I am fighting a boss and then I'm summoning a huge carnival jumping around all over a sudden.
This is all my opinion.
I have to disagree. I think people just have their nostalgia goggles on when it comes to KH2. The combat(not counting the stupid attractions) is way more fluid and responsive then it was in KH2 and just feels better overall. I can time blocks, do combos, etc just as well as I did in KH2 if not better. I still think KH2 is the better game but just slightly and KH3 easily takes the second best spot in the entire series which BBS had until now for me.
@@MWKRider bro game came out twenty million times literally just replayed them when the HD versions came out at the time the same combat designer isnt present in kh3 that's why it's not focused on key blade combat as much as it's used to, the problem is they added to much shit to do in combat that using the key blade makes it weak
CommandoSoldier alot of people feel this way.
Personally, KH1 had the best *ground combat* for me. It didn't have the "mash Ex or Triangle to win", nor the BBS "mash Square to dodge" problem. The attack animations left you open, and you had to be weary of just doing combos. This is exemplified early on with the optional Riku fight at the start. Not much for aerial combat though.
I would say KH3 is the most balanced in terms of available options. The game really embraces aerial fighting. Trust me. You have to learn how to guard mid-air or you will get your butt kicked often. Also you have to appreciate the game gives you the option to either launch enemies from the ground or slam enemies to the ground mid-combo. That feels good.
Admitably, though, the magic is a little too potent.
"Sora has grown from a child to a young teenager"
Sora is 17 in KH3
Iraklis Pazios sora is also 14 in kh1
Nope, Sora is 14 in I and 15 in II and III. II and III happen within the same year.
It was confirmed that Sora was 14 in KH1 and 15 in KH2, DDD and KH3 since they're meant to take place in the same year. So Sora technically is a "young teenager".
After playing phantasy star online for 3 years before the original kingdom hearts came out I had absolutely no problem with the camera because pso and kh1 had the same control scheme.
4:12 I kinda have to disagree with that. After all, KH2 still has two hours worth of voice cutscenes MORE than KH3, _plus_ the text bubble scenes.
KH1/2 look incredible for their time. Especially the faces when they aren't fish faced. Still some of the best facial animation in video games; maybe even better than KH3 tbh.
FOR THE WHOLE FRICKEN VIDEO I WAS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE MUSIC IN THE BACKGROUND WAS AND IT’S THE ROKUSHI THEME. Also yes i do call it the rokushi theme.
I just don't like the fact that you can literally cast the new abilities and literally spam the shit out of them without any kind of difficulty and kill everything around you. Completed the game in expert without dying once, meanwhile I remember trying critical mode in KH2 and dying one time after another. This game is beautiful, but it should request more skill to complete.
Play critical mode and you’ll see the pain you want
The thing that blew me away most of all was the game's soundtrack mixing. Not only were familiar recurring tracks remixed uniquely for whatever world they played in, but no longer were 95% of all songs during cutscenes just looped overworld or circumstantial tracks. Virtually all of them were scored dynamically to the animation, which made every cutscene feel like watching a short film. It felt so incredible that I deliberately switched the subtitles off for the entire game just to immerse myself as much as I could; the inability to understand half of Donald's dialogue was a small price to pay.
The voices are very off, especially mickey and herc. Also, didn't the first 2 games have herc world take place AFTER the movie?
No, otherwise hades would be trapped in the underworld. The first two games followed ymyhe initial plot somewhat and take place during herculues rise to fame
Mickey and herc have new actors, so does Donald. Soras actor is now around 30. Kairie is played by someone else. Xehanort got a new voice. So familiar sounding characters all sound completely different
Lol its the same Mickey Actor since BBS.
@@PrincessNine Tate donovan is still Hercules.
@BHowardify Are you not aware of how much they would have to pay to get John Goodman, Billy Crystal, Tom Hanks and Tim Allen? They're all A-list actors (OK maybe not Billy or Tim so much anymore), combined they'd be in the multi millions.
The sound-a-likes they got did a pretty damn good job in my opinion.
FYI Woody was voiced by Jim Hanks, Tom's brother. He does all the voice work for Woody outside of the movies.
My only real complaint about KH3's story is the lack of interaction with Terra, Aqua, Ventus, Roxas, and Xion. Those five felt pretty rushed...I really wanted to see them have a little more screen time than what they got. Other than that, I was pretty happy with it.
1:00 "versions are practically identical..."
*shows side by side screencap of the original game looking HORRIBLE and jagged..*
Feels like this one was modified tbh, can't remember the game having THAT much aliasing.
Finally Finished KH3! Wonderful experience. Love your content bro
There is a weird buzz in some of your sentences.
I think your voice is resonating with something close to the mic.

I like how a lot of comparison points have both objective, *and* subjective, aspects to the same subject.
Take sound for example: you can objectively determine what game has better audio quality, from a technical level. But asking what game has the better sound effects/music/etc. is entirely subjective in nature.
Twilight town on KH3 looks better because it feels crowded there.
Like an actual town would be.
THERE'S EVEN PLANT LIFE NOW!
And apparently everyone just chills on rooftops in this town . . . that seems extremely unsafe but okay.
When you think about it, the first game being made in a time where we didn’t have as many 3D and graphical tools as we would have now, the developers really did do a great job in putting dedication to the game. You can tell because of the little things they added back then to make the gameplay more immersive and eye catching to the player.
Man, it's time for sora met lightning or noctis 😂
The fact that they can make a video game look identical to a movie is incredible. At some point later through out the game it literally felt like I was watching a scene out of a series. The only thing I wish hadn’t happened was having all of the damn final fantasy characters taken out. It’d be incredible to have a few of those worlds added in for a change. Also put cloud and sepiroth back those boss fights were my favorite!
As we've been told : Does Sora get any taller or he just wearing smaller shoes ??? :))
both. His hair keeps getting smaller too.
@@IHugShortPeople By the time we reach KH5 Sora will be bald.
Awesome channel man!
I really don't like the new style at all. While the Disney characters look pretty good, I feel like a lot of the Kingdom Hearts characters look awful. I found myself really put off with how some of the Org. XIII members look, for example. I felt like with the improvement in technology, they really could have made this game breathtakingly beautiful, and instead they "kiddy-fied" everything. The first two games I felt had a good balance of being kid-friendly while also not going too overboard with it. From what little I have experienced so far, it feels very much like they have abandoned those who have been fans of KH since childhood and instead are too concerned with appealing to little kids. I feel like it's possible to achieve both if done correctly. I have not finished the game yet, not even close, but at this point, I am very very concerned. I have been waiting for this game since I was 12, and I really want it to be amazing. Again, these are just my first impressions. My opinions may very well change.
I think you should take your nostalgia goggles off because the game looks beautiful on all the characters
BHowardify Don’t put words in my mouth. I never said something newer is better but I don’t see how you think the characters look bad. They look pretty good to me. I see people’s concerns and I agree somewhat but I still enjoy the game. I don’t care if you think the game is not good. I think it is so if you think the game isn’t good that’s your loss
BHowardify First off, the game did not take 13 years to make. It took 5 to 6 years to make. If you think that KH2 is better than every aspect then graphics than that’s your loss. Go and play KH2 where the worlds are straight hallways and little rooms because apparently that’s better than wider vertical worlds in KH3. And you continue to put words in my mouth because I NEVER said that newer is better. I feel that this game is pretty good in my eyes. But if you don’t think that like I said it’s your loss
@BHowardify How about you shut the fuck up and play the game.
BHowardify Alright dude. I’m gonna just end it here. If you don’t think it lived up the hype that’s completely your lost. I am enjoying the game a lot and I believe it did for the most part. It’s sad to see some people don’t enjoy it for dumb reasons but I think it’s a great game and well deserved the hype
Love how Donald's pose perfectly line up in both games.
I still preffer the originals 3d, idk why but the new one feels too clean its wierd. what I hate its that everything its like that, even the life bar avatars, way better when they were drawn.
I agree.
Ehh your just relying on nostalgia
@@Lightguardian_HOH So is the people claiming this game is amazing, while is rushed, worlds are totally disconected from the story and mean nothing. A dog can finish the game by smashing buttons and doing automatic flashy shit. But nostalgia Will make fanboy love it anyways.
@@Fender91 Yikes you people complain way too much.
@@Fender91 Worlds were disconnected in KH2.
Another thing I noticed is the use of Subsurface Scattering, where when a light exists behind an object, it gives it a glow, like candle wax. You can see this on donald's beak, and some character's ears.
But which one means more to you ..? 🤔🤔
This KH3 is to fast for the pace. Not really enjoy it. I like n miss the KH 1 because it's darker and mysterious. It gave me anxious and anxiety with what make its Kingdom Hearts. ♥ I miss the old days. My favourite is KH 1 and KH 2 only
mmmmm exactly , I just finished it last night & gotta say .. I waited 13 years & $60 ... for that ? Kh2 is the best of the series for me
One detail I love that the Shadow Heartless actually look like shadows when in that form
The ball room in toy box nearly killed my 2014 xbox lmao
Fucking same bro, i had some crazy lag
Xbox having problems I didn't go through that in my normal ps4
Dracula The Vampire the X is locked at 4k 60frames at all times with 0 drop. PS4 pro drops to 40frames most of the time. But OG XboxOne can’t handle much at all these days sadly.
@@BryceGub X is not locked 60 at 4K, it drops alot of times below it to 40-50's.
The only way to get locked 60 fps in this game is PS4 PRO forced to 1080P resolution.
Watch DF's video.
My Xbox one s with crapy Internet worked fine
Also there is no anisotropic filtering filtering in KH1 2 or 3. Why did you not enable bi linear filtering in pcsx2 when comparing KH1?? It's like that in the console.
it definitely looks better but itvskipped a whole generation so it should look better...
Something about the old sound mixing has a more realistic feel. Like for instance, In kh1 you could hear Sora's key chain jangling where as in kh3 you mainly hear him running and grunting. When you're in the gummi ship though, audio and video changes in kh3 definitely trump the older games
Donald's death looks more beautiful
@@J01789 NO ONE DIES in this fucking game. this shit is like dragonball, death means nothing. freakin' boring. sora saves kairi and is gone for good. everyone plays bumerang on the beach. fucking cringy. the secret ending is just a fucking ad, lol. nomura is salty, i guess ;D

The final mix versions have such a big resolution change, it will affect your comparison, just saying. You should do the original and the FM separately.
I was disappointed, waited close to 15 years for this and this is what I get?
You are not alone. I don't like kh3, the more I see it the more I don't like it. The only one good thing is the toy story world because nostalgic feelings. I expected to fight Sephiroth, but no FF characters this time.
@@mythologiasend3264 plus they could have made it a lot longer. There are things I'm upset about, you would think close to 15 years it would be like a 200 gig game, with a lot of story, A LOT of new characters, old ones, etc, plus they could have made the mechanics better. I could write a dissertation on the things they went wrong. I'm genuinely upset.
@@billyd9258 you are 100% right. Instead they hit the nostalgia button for people waiting for that 13 years. This game is nothing more than a nostalgia machine, nothing new or special, minimum content.
There are other KH games in those 13yrs interval. If you dont feel the game anymore, then you are not the target audience for this generation of KH.

No, Sora was 14 in 1, and 15 in 2, and still 15 in 3.
Was hoping for a better audio comparison in your video. Heard the voice for the main character in three and he sounded strange.
Really easy to do this.
Kingdom hearts has final fantasy characters, is not obviously controlled in every way to make Disney characters look good and everyone else look bad
Kingdom Hearts 3 has no final fantasy despite this series being a Disney meets final fantasy series, then its all about how clearly Disney inteferred to make sure the entire game was about any movie that came out in the last 5-10 years, DON"T FORGET FROZEN, PEOPLE LOVED THAT! IT'LL BE GREAT FUN FOR GAMERS TO WATCH A LADY SING FOR 5 MINUTES AND HAVE NO GAMEPLAY.
I guess Kingdom hearts 1 Wins..?
Iv never had trouble with the kh1 camera but iv heard lots y’all about it, I feel like even though the ps2 games worlds were mostly bearen and felt empty the sound mixing like in twilight town as you ran across then pavement was just so good with the music and not to mention the shadows made it feel really alive even if it was really minanilist to today’s games
Sora moves way too fast in KH3. I want the gentle pace back
Edit: except for some worlds like Erendale and Toy Box the fast running feels good but certainly not Twighlight Town
it would take to damn long to traverse in these new big ass worlds if he was slower
@@fooleyblk1518 than make the worlds smaller tf?
You probably haven't played the game yourself. The fast running is so much more fun when you play the game and helps traversing the world's a lot (not to mention it's useful in combat)
Dracula The Vampire this is officially the dumbest comment I’ve ever heard. Sorry but what you said makes no sense at all.
that graphic design is TIMELESS.
I hate Soras' new design...
Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 both have aged well over the years in a gameplay perspective in my opinion nearly all jrpgs do
it looks really great but these guys had 13 years to polish the shit out of this game, witcher 3 and red dead 2 had less time and those games looks so fantastic.
Good Art style > realistic modern graphics. Also the Pirates of the Caribbean looked great and had better looking water then most modern games these days.
Yo have to realize that the graphics must match the area Sora is in. If you’re in Olympus, getting God of War 3 style graphics would just be weird (amazing though) because Hercules is a Disney animation. An old one, at that.
Whereas with Pirates of the Caribbean (the absolute best world and a voice actor that did jack sparrows voice spot on) the wold is extremely realistic. Water looks like real water, the characters have immense amounts of detail to show they are human, ships are quite detailed, etc.
The graphics in this game blew me away. Especially toy story, I hated toy story even as a kid. I always thought it was stupid. However, when I played this world it was awesome. The graphics are very Pixar like but when you venture outside and you see the cars and the street, it looks so real it’s crazy haha.
The worlds were great, Sora was great....I just wish they didn’t leave us hanging. I thought this was the end of kingdom hearts. Looks like the real kingdom hearts is just beginning though, can’t wait for kh4.
@@ryujinjakka4518 Nomura said multiple times in interview that KH3 would just be the end of the Dark Seeker (Xehanort) saga. And the story would continue.
It's been 5 years. They started it sometime in 2013. Where are you people getting 13 years from? Doesn't make any kind of sense
To me, Square Enix will always be the company with the best music. For 2002 the music is beautiful and has remained amazing in quality.
Great vid, and comparison
Good video but honestly of course the graphics are better. Last big KH title was on the PS2. Sure you’ve got 2.8 but KH3 is a whole different animal. They did a great job. Only few things I have a problem with is some of the writing, voice acting executions, and not much screen time for Kairi and the other original characters. Also, I was really looking forward to see what happened to Cloud and Sephiroth after their battle in KH2, so if they could bring back FF characters that’d be great!
I completely agree that the tradition 2D characters look odd.
When I saw Maleficent in the earlier trailers she look so strange; seeing shading on either side of her exaggerated nose was just... odd.
But the modern 3D worlds look insane; That's a whole lot of detail!
Should also have added in a bit about the Caribbean level and how it goes even further with the models of Sora, Donald and Goofy. the featherwork on Donald alone amazed me through the entire world.
sneaky vector to the heavens mix at the end haha
My biggest problem is the sound mixing. They didn't even add in a sound mixing tool! While the music is somewhat low in the mix, I have to half my volume compared to previous games or the dialogues will blow my ears out. I also kind of miss the catchiness of the world themes in the other games. I mean, KH3 music is nice and atmospheric on a symphonic sort of way, but the earlier games were catchy enough to make two books and CD's of really awesome piano arrangements
I have to disagree with his critique of the animations in kh1 being too abrupt, as well as him saying the levels are too simplistic. (They certainly are simplistic in kh2) Kh1 level design highlighted exploration in a non-linear fashion sprinkled with puzzles and platforming challenges, kh3 level design was definitely inspired by kh1's but i think falls in varying its big rooms and rarely involves backtracking bc each room is so large. The quicker animations in kh1 make the game snappier whereas the floaty animations in kh3 giver you less control. Other than that great video.
Sorry, but you have way more control in 3 and their worlds are much better to explore so cut the crap
@@jeffreyali1456 your opinion and yes you have more control im talking about game feel
Dammit, what's the name of the theme used at the start of the video? I always forget D:
When it got to the sound comparison, the music is an obvious upgrade, since KH3 isn't restricted by the Original PlayStation's limitations. But generally, ESPECIALLY the Destati fight, I kinda liked the old Keyblade hitting effects & stuff.
the other promise/ vector to the heavens playing in the background :"))) Kh3 was so good
Not gonna lie when I got to twilight town and head the music eye had tears in my eyes I have so much nostalgia of running around twilight town as roxas screwing around and going through the story (by the way I loved the intro as roxas) so when I got to hear the music that was emotional.
awesome video, im going to start my kingdom hearts 3 live stream soon
