In all seriousness though, KH1FM and 2FM's extra abilities really helped Sora combat wise in those games (Stun Impact and Sliding Dash are godsends in the former, and Magnet Burst is objectively one of the best combo finishers in the series). Hopefully Sora gets some better combo finishers here.

I hope one of the new abilities is a guard that works.
Imagine being halfway through blocking Data Xemnas' DM when it decides it doesn't want to register anymore because reasons.

Edit: What's this about a story patch?

Interesting that they have the concert bundled. They could easily release it like FFXIV concerts on blu-ray at a much a higher price (which I would still be interested in since I prefer physical media...). Nice to have it worldwide though.

Still waiting on the official OST announcement though.

Ripple Drive in KH1 is GOAT for swarms of enemies if you have a magic build/MP build (which I recommend everyone do). Damage scales with MP, but it sadly doesn't do much for bosses.

Yeah, there's no reason not to go with a magic build in KH1FM. Ripple Drive makes early game mobs so much less daunting.

It seems the story scenes that happen during the game will be included for free, so stuff like KH2's Xigbar and Zexion conversation.
Ah. That makes sense.

Since people seem confused:

ReMind is a post-game episode detailing how Sora saves Kairi and his fate after. It is not an update to the base game. There are separate, free updates to the base games story and gameplay.

I wouldn't be surprised if there is indeed a new guard considering how receptive to criticism they've been.

I wonder what those new abilities are. Very exciting.

Hopefully they'll be a bunch of patches on release too. People have already mentioned the guard fails but I would like to lock on to enemies off screen too

I dunno, at least early on (with an MP build) Ripple Drive does some seriously chunky damage to bosses too. Zantetsuken still outclasses it, obviously, but I've seen *massive* amounts taken off of boss HP bars with that finisher.

It's Stun Impact (which you get first, IIRC) that is handy against mobs early in the game but doesn't really do serious actual damage.

Re Mind scenario - Search for sora and new scenes
Limit cut Episode & 13 Boss Battles - Seems like this is where explorable Scala comes into play.
Secret Episode - Really feel like it will be likely Yozora.

I'm just sort of worried about all of the new bosses being accessible from the Re:Mind menu thing.

It's something that would be great as an option, but if that's the only way, it kind of gives me less reasons to play through the base game.

It's a very silly thing to worry about, though, I definitely understand that, but I like looking forward to doing the data battles and Lingering Will as I make my way through the game, it gives me a good objective to work torwards. If I know it's not in any way required to beat the campaign again to have that experience, that they're not even connected, it bugs me a little.

okay so the DLC is $30 but there's also a free story patch? Am I understanding that right?

It's not a silly thing to worry about cause low key if they're exclusive to that scenario and not accessible to the base game then it could mean that they're not uber challenging like how the KH2FM data battles were.

new ReMind Sora render has more realistic look, like how he looks in the secret episode.

Whelp. Guess the base KH3 should be pretty heavily discounted by the time this comes out, might as well pick it up then.

REMIND looks cool.

It also looks like "Fuck, people didn't like our story stuff." but that's to be expected. Nomura's a hack of a writer. At least he's addressing the problems.
