LTTP: Kingdom Hearts - How odd. I'm enjoying an RPG
- Thread starter I Wanna Be The Guy
- Start date
Yep, if you've finished the Twilight Town part after the second Tron visit.
It's the no Disney allowed end game section like End of the World on KH.

Finished Lion King and Little Mermaid. Little Mermaid ended up disappointing in the end. The idea of a singing gimmick world? Brilliant. But in the end it didn't live up to its potential. I hope future Kingdom Hearts games bring back a singing gimmick world but execute it better. Part of Your World was the only one that was done well.

Oh I'd been avoiding returning to Hercules assuming it would just be a tournament thing that unlocked. Didn't realise it was actually story content. Cool.

Hercules revisit was fantastic!
Oh that had it all. A Hades fight. Hercules diving in to save Meg and coming out a God/True Hero. True hero measured by the strength of his heart. People always do crazy things when they're in love. Cap it all off with Sora Donald and Goofy in the stars. The feels.
Oh and it even says a star is born when you click on the world again. Ending song might not be there to cap it off, but it's referenced. Well played.

Don't know what I was thinking when I was tempted to abandon the game. The game still had quite a bit to offer. The first couple world revisits seemed so lame it felt like my time was just beong wasted. But some of the ones after were actually really good.
Tron is the only Disney world I have left. Tron was one of my favourite worlds on the first visit. Such a cool unexpected world choice.

Yeah some of the second visits were legitimately great. Tron's is cool
Really hoping you don't drop the game at a certain fight in the final world
is this talking about the Roxas fight? oh boy poor dude is gonna get destroyed if he's not prepared
yes and given that he hates the combat and original KH content...
I had to go back and prepare my ass for that fight for a decent while, and it still took me a bit to finally beat him after I leveled up a ton. Definitely the hardest fight in the game especially considering how the game really doesn't prepare you for it at all lol. OP is nottttttt gonna have a fun time with the fight.
Me too haha, I'll have to keep checking in on this thread lol.

Hello everyone. This isn't even an optional fight. Kingdom Hearts 2 is harder than the first game. This is not up for debate.
Bonus negative points for forcing the player to run back to the boss fight AND making them open all the chests on the way again.

Is this the fight you're referring to? Very first boss in the final world.
That's the biggest difficulty spike in the game imo. If you can beat him you should be good. Thankfully they add a retry option for boss fights in later games. I really think they should have added that to the remasters of 1 and 2.

I CANT BELIEVE YOU PEOPLE TRIED TO CONVINCE ME TO PLAY THIS ON THE HIGHEST DIFFICULTY. CHRIST IMAGINE IF I STUCK WITH THE DIFFICULTY ABOVE THIS INSTEAD OF RESTARTING THE GAME

Of course I didn't fucking beat him! Not even close! I can beat 2 of his health bars. Occasionally 3.
lol, this wasn't even in the original game. It's something they added for Final Mix. Originally it just played out as a cutscene.
The fight rivals the Sephiroth battle IMO, which is made even worse by the fact that it's mandated for story progression whereas Sephiroth is optional in both games.
Look at it this way, if you manage to beat him you'll basically be in the clear for the rest of the game! Nothing else comes close in terms of the main story.

What keyblade are you using? Decisive Pumpkin is like the one to uuse for end game.
Oh, congrats lol. He was just a cutscene on the original PS2 release

It is quite funny how I suddenly went from getting rekt nowhere near beating him to all of a sudden yeah alright now I'll just beat him. There was no gradual improvement it was just going from rekt to doing in 1 attempt of clarity.
This fight is the game asking if you have dodge roll or not. If you do then he's easy. If not then he's brutal.
Yep. In terms of raw power it even outclasses the ultima weapon.
OP
OP
How the hell do you get the dodge roll?
Lack of roll is a big reason the combat in general hasn't clicked for me by the way.
It's the first(?) reward for levelling limit form, which you level by landing its limit commands.
OP
OP
Considering how much you said you enjoyed KH1's combat, I'm kinda surprised you are not using the Drive form that literally turns you into KH1 Sora with his combat abilities from that game lol.
OP
OP
I don't use limits in general. A form based around limits was not appealing to me as the controls seemed awkward. You have to select down on the d-pad to choose different attacks and I just found that awkward so that's why I avoided it.
OP
OP
HOLY SHIT WOW
IT EVEN TELLS YOU YOU HAVE A DODGE ROLL ON LIMIT IN THE MENU I JUST NEVER BOTHERED READING IT!
I COULD HAVE FIXED THIS GAMES COMBAT A LONG FUCKING TIME AGO

You can use L2/Left Trigger and right stick to navigate the command menu, which is way easier/how it was on original KH1 when it had Sonic Adventure style shoulder button camera controls. Having to do command menu on d-pad for 1FM kills it for me.
All the forms give Sora a unique ability, and you can upgrade them further as you level the form. You can grind limit form painlessly though- go to the room at the bottom of the elevator in the cave (it's the gummi ship landing spot outside the treasure room), then go in the treasure room, pop limit form, spam limits on the mushroom, then go out and back on th gummi ship before your drive gauge runs out, and just repeat that.
The movement abilities being tied to drive forms is the biggest flaw in KH2. So many people end up not getting them when they're practically mandatory for the game to be fun to play.

Literally the only movement ability I've unlocked is a higher jump. And it still isn't all that high!
The final world is when they want you to run through in drive form lol. There are 2 specific forms in combination with magic that make it a synch.
I personally didn't mind the drive forms outside of having to grind them each in a specific way but anti form is rage inducing bullshit like the tripping in Smash Bros Brawl.

I started replaying KH2 FM and I'm definitely feeling it. I don't want to spend any time grinding (at least, going out of my way for it), so while leveling up Valor is pretty easy, I'm not looking forward to having to putz around with the other forms.
You already bear Roxas which is by far the hardest boss in the story. The final fight should be chump change compared to him. You have a ton of elixers, summons and drive abilities at this point.
after years fantasizing about the rainy neon city aesthetics of Another Side, Another Story [deep dive], i was kind of disappointed most of the level takes place in a grey space ship
Sounds more like they got stuck on crossbow guy or maybe moon guy.
