A Kingdom Hearts 3 gameplay trailer. Kingdom Hearts χ is getting a translation.

A new Star Ocean.

[IslaKariese]

This trailer's fucking beautiful.

[Endless Sea]

As it should be.

It is! The game looks so much more open world, which is sweet. Dat jump at 0:45 . Xehanort's lisp is kinda freakin me out though. And I wanted to hear some new music. Ah well

My question to other fans: What are things you don't like about the series?

I'm sure I'd appreciate it more if Final Fantasy was an easier series to catch up on, but otherwise... Sometimes all the Xanatos Gambits just pile up and leave me wondering what the hell just happened...

You mean Kingdom Hearts, right? Final Fantasy games (the main series, at least) are all standalone titles that don't even share a setting between them.

Yeah, as far as the gambit thing I mean KH. I mentioned FF simply because a good chunk of the KH cast are hard to relate to simply because I have no idea who they are (or at least who they're based on, since they've been de-aged and adjusted for KH-related backgrounds).

[Endless Sea]

I don't know any of the cast, especially the Disney ones, and it still works for me! :P

What, you don't watch Disney movies? Seeing familiar faces is what motivates me, for the most part!

[Endless Sea]

I prefer the OG characters myself.

OG?

[Endless Sea]

Original Generation.

[IslaKariese]

Original Generation.

So, like, characters unique to KH?

[Endless Sea]

Yas.

Been playing a whole lot of Magic Duels: Origins lately. M:TG is pretty great, and Duels is an okay implementation of it for those of us who can't get paper games and don't want to sink cash into Magic Online.

[Victin]

I heard about the game. I'm gonna take a look at it after exam week go by. Right now I've been playing Hearthstone.

[Anura]

Now's the time to start. Origins is the very last Core Set, so they're only doing regular expansions after this. The whole set is thematically about beginnings; even the set's story is a flashback to how 5 of the characters became Planeswalkers.

Kinda makes me want to start up a M:TG themed RP, tbh.

[eli_gone_crazy]

anura yes

[Anura]

There is so much that would need to go into a workable Magic rp.

[Anura]

Meanwhile, in FFXIV...

Wake the metal.

[Endless Sea]

Oh, you play that too, huh?

[Anura]

Yup! What server are you on?

[Endless Sea]

Oh, nononono, I mean my friend (he showed up briefly in the forums as Rational Thought) plays it and tries to get me and the broteam to try it as well. He always fails, natch- we're not exactly willing to play a paid subscription MMO in a series we've never been too interested in.

[Anura]

It's not an expensive sub tbh.

[Endless Sea]

If it costs money per week to play and it's something I'm not particularly interested in, then no thanks.
