Kingdom Hearts HD I.5 ReMIX - Looking Simpler and Cleaner Than Ever

[Tetsujin]

I'm done with the synthesis shit.

Ultima Weapon is mine! Now to beat the other optional bosses.
Or maybe I'll do Hades Cup solo and time attack first.

I actually started using EXP Zero during farming as I was leveling up a bit too fast and was afraid the bosses might become too easy. I'm at 75 now.

EDIT: Apparently, if you play the game for over 100 hours the counter will just reset. If you then beat it within the next 15 hours, you can still get the Speedster trophy.

 

[Tetsujin]

I was definitely overleveled for the optional bosses.
Also "Mysterious Figure" caught me off guard with his HP drain move and almost killed me regardless.

The only thing left for me to do are gummi ship missions and two more playthroughs including the speedrun.

I think I'll move on to ReCoM for now though.

I seriously hope difficulty trophies stack for 2.5.
Imagine having to do four separate playthroughs on KH2...and then another *12* for BbS, four for each character!

That'd be annoying as shit.

 

[Strangelove]

I did both the Mysterious Figure and Sephiroth at level 100 on easy and that's good enough for me I beat KH2FM's secret boss on Proud but still do not have confidence about beating others.

I think the only trophies I am missing now are normal play through, speedster, Donald's weapons (sniper wiiiiiiiilds111), gummi ship plans, and the mini game one.

 

[Alex Strife]

I salute you two!

Beating the game in proud was an achievement I'm proud of () but you guys are great!!

 

[Strangelove]

yay i beat sniper wilds and got all the synth items, then realised i was missing two weapons for donald (rod of dreams and the one from the end of the world which took ages to find).

so now i need normal playthrough, speedster, unchanging armour, and gummi ship plans? which means doing those missions, which get progressively more evil

[Marcus]

OOO that would be amazing.

I've been swapping between this game and GTA these past few weeks, I've finished the game on all difficulties and working on 100% now, (Mystery Goos be a bitch!). Game is still awesome and can't wait to get it platinumned.

I haven't played Re: Coded or watched 358/2 days yet, but i'll get round to it.

 

[The Twilight Mexican]

That "Wreck-It Ralph" idea is the best idea since "Kingdom Hearts" itself.

 

[Tetsujin]

Instead of starting ReCoM, I felt like doing the Beginner speedrun w/o changing equipment instead. xP

3.5 hours later I'm now at Hallow Bastion at level 37. I'm skipping most fights and the game still is a frickin cakewalk. :p

 

[Strangelove]

I'm hoping normal isn't as bad either, since I want to use that play through to get speed and armour trophies

But I keep thinking about beginner for the ribbon and exp accessory. Conflicted

 

[Super Mario]

I wish to see the Wreck It Ralph world to be honest. I love this idea.

 

[Tetsujin]

The difficulty bump after HB is annoying. Kingdom Key does such miniscule damage, it's aggravating.
Just beat Chernabog. He managed to kill me once. xP

Let's see how the final boss goes. I have 9.5 hours left to get the trophy so there's plenty of time for leveling if I have to.

EDIT: Speedster trophy GET!

 

[Groodon]

I don't know if this subject have been touched upon, but is there a possibility of Star Wars in KH3?

 

[Tennyo]

^Uh... who knows?


I just bought this game yesterday, played to Traverse Town before I got tired and went to bed.

Had to sit there listening to my roommate's brother prattling on about how I should do this and that and fight this person and blah blah blah...

But it's fun so far. I'm not sure how I feel about the music, though. Was it really necessary to remix the music? What did they do to "Simple and Clean?" They ruined it.

Simple and Clean is Utada's song. It's still the same.

 

[Carlie]

The Simple and Clean remix has always been in the intro while the slower version is in the ending scene and credits.

 

[Lex]

I bought this game 2 weeks ago and it's still in its plastic wrap. I hate my life right now.

 

[Carlie]

Mine's out of the plastic wrap but I haven't been able to play it in a few weeks and I only made as far as Wonderland.

 

[Tennyo]

No, it definitely sounds much, much faster. Like, they remixed the beat and made into kind of a clusterfuck. :/

 

[Tetsujin]

Nope, it's the exact same.

Anyway, playing Chain of Memories now. Card battle system takes a while to get used to again. Definitely can't just button mash your way through and have to pay attention to the cards enemies are playing. It's fun once you get better and more cards and start using sleights though.

I have played CoM once years ago on GBA emulator. I remember some of the bosses were pretty tough. I wonder if it's still the same in the remake...

Been playing on Standard for now, just in case.

 

[Tennyo]

I swear it is not.

There's extra faster beats.

You cannot convince me otherwise...

*pedantic*

They also recolored the boss in Wonderland. He's all pink and purple and pastel instead of red and black. Not sure how I feel about that because it kind of takes away from the card deck/poker chip feel...

 

[Tetsujin]

Yeah, a lot of the enemies get recolors for the Final Mix versions. Not sure why, but that's what they do. Guard Armor went from being purple to looking like a Gundam.

I haven't had time to play CoM lately, but I started it on Standard for the very same reason.

 

[Tetsujin]

Up to the 10th floor with Sora in CoM...

Haven't had many problems so far. Assembled a card deck for bosses which allows me to mostly spam a bunch of sleights.

Also, sudden 60fps when you select world cards. The 100 Acre Wood minigames also seem to be 60fps...o.O

Edit: After 22 hours, I'm finally done with Sora's story. xP

 

[Tetsujin]

Finished ReCoM Reverse/Rebirth. So basically I'm done with 1.5 not counting getting platinum trophies.

Riku's story can be quite a drag what with no story scenes in the Disney worlds to at least give you something in between all the fighting.
