We are now in "2nd Phase" of Kingdom Hearts, with at least 2 more assumed titles
- Thread starter DNAbro
- Start date
The World Ends with You 2: The City Where the Streets Have No Name.
Issue is that KH games are usually 90% filler (all of disney). Most of the story happens in first two and last three hours.
no, the issue is rather CoM, Coded/Recoded, 365/2 Days, union cross, the epilogue 0.2 with aqua, DDD to an lesser extend.
I don't think you really can. As long as Sora is around the rest of the series will always kinda hang over his head.
It's tiring with the same characters for years and years. For example KH3 didn't really have new characters and the ones that are introduced in the mobile titles are barely used.
KH1 and KH2 felt like fun, self contained JRPGs. For a while now KH has been running in circles.
I see, I guess I must have missed that, thanks. Looks like a skip for me.
except no one did???
Even Nomura said there would be at least one spinoff between KH3 and 4 in an interview. So I'm not sure who your referring to exactly.
As previously stated, Nomura is never rebooting the series while he's in charge of it. Sora's his baby and he's not gonna start over from 0.

How can anyone ask for a reboot when KH is at the most exciting, weird, fan theory spawning, enaging point in the franchises history since KH2
Yeah this is my question as well. It'd be nice if the top row were all the games of this phase since that would mean we're already damn close to KH4, but those bottom boxes are a mystery.
Personally I'm really dreading the Riku rescue arc, the Team Riku arc and the Second Keyblade War arc.
Again. A soft reboot isn't going to happen. You can't just go "none of that stuff matters anymore". There are too many games and too many characters for the fandom to just accept everything but Sora going away. It's just not possible to reboot KH, soft or otherwise.
It is what it is.
so phase 2 has way less games than phase 1?
I don't think it is a bad thing. ..just an observation

My God.
As someone who's just now playing through the first game on PS4, after I blindingly bought the all in one package, I can't understand why of this. There are a couple hundred games and spin-offs with dozens of different playing orders. It's overwhelming.
I'm loving the Disney worlds though, as I bought it for that anyway.

Way less games planned right now, at least.
I guarantee you Nomura didn't plan for 9 games in the first arc initially.
Oh fair enough. Odd thing to add in but I'll be getting it anyway since my wife will love it. Really could go for some info on something not a spin off though.
The year is 2062
Tetsuya Nomura, now in his early 90s, prepares for the launch of Kingdom Hearts 6. The final game in the Kingdom Hearts Saga.
In retirement homes throughout the world people boot up their Playstation X Mind Chips to play.
40 hours later and they finish the game. The credits roll, and the final scene begins. This is it. What 60 years of dedicated playing and countless forum posts complaining about 'how young people should just play the games and stop complaining' have all been leading up to.
Sora finally returns home after defeating the source of the darkness: The Darkness. He opens the door and on his bed sits Noctis
The screen fades to black, and text appears:
Kingdom Hearts = Final Fantasy Versus XIII Part 1
A New Saga Begins.

But back then he didn't mention anything like a plan to begin with.
This seems too specific for that to happen.
I think what we are seeing here is pretty much written in stone and adjustments will only happen to the inevitable phase 3 in which we will fight together with the MoM against the TRUE villain that the MoM has secretly prepared us for all along
Yeah, this is far too normal for KH. Let's correct this
"Kingdom hearts stage X elemental part Deux :a compendium of darkness " has now begun!
OP
OP
It's basically free money for Disney, they don't really have a reason to get involved outside of making sure Nomura doesn't use their characters badly.
You'll get a rwboot eventually - a reboot that turns out to be a direct sequel!
