Best trait for sora&roxas?
I have extra attack currently but i rerolled gauge+
should i skip and keep the extra attack?
The 40% doesn't mean the 2nd attack is increased by 40%, but rather it's 2nd attack is weaker right?

What happens if the app resets before i confirm if i keep the trait?
Does it keep the old trait?
Or does it force the new one?
Or do i get another chance to roll?

>>174037462
Sora&roxas is shit, extra attack is way better if you have ikairi 2

>>174021981
I always felt that Xion kinda took away from the implied story that he left the Org because of Namine.

Like prior to Days all Nomura said was "He left because of his stated reasons, but also in part due to a girl"

Like see it would have been cool that even when they are different people they still fall in love.

>>174039702
To be fair since it isn't new that means you potentially have a very high damage dealer provided you place it after a 3+ guage medal.

>>174040771
>kinda took away from the implied story that he left the Org because of Namine.
It was never implied
That is your headcanon

>>174041046
It's literally a fact that Nomura said Roxas left partly due to a girl.

It's also a fact that the it was the Days writer who first put forward the idea of Xion, meaning Nomura made that previous statement prior to Xion being a thing.

It didn't have to be Namine, but it makes the most sense.

>>174040771
>Implying that women can change men
Lies roxas is probably going to be the 13th darkness in kh3.

>>174041176
>It's literally a fact that Nomura said Roxas left partly due to a girl.
Wasn't even specifically a girl at first, they just decided on a girl as they were coming up with the story
>who first put forward the idea of Xion
Gave her the name, there are other people who worked on the story besides nomura and Kanemaki you know
>but it makes the most sense.
In your fanfiction

>>174041419
Plenty of men have done stupid things for women

>>174041447
>f-fanfiction!!!
It's true. There is no other female character that makes more sense in that role than Naminé prior to the release of Days.

I dare you to refute it.

>>174043127
It's pretty hard to refute headcanon mate.

>>174043278
F

>>174041447
>there are other people who worked on the story besides nomura and Kanemaki you know
Yes.
Kanemaki wrote the scenario. The events that transpired.
Nomura wrote the dialogue, with oversight from Kanemaki and either Nojima or Watanabe, I can't remember which. They cleaned it up for him too.

The important thing is the person in charge of the scenario. Typically, this is Nomura's role. He decides the story of the game, and has Nojima, Watanabe, Oka, and a few others put words to the events he plans out.

For this one game, the person in charge of the scenario was Kanemaki. She decided what would happen.
Sure, all of the writing staff would collaborate in various parts, but at the end of the day, she's the singular scenario designer.

Even looking at Xion's name, and how it connects with the game's plot and themes, it's incredibly hard to believe that Xion as a character existed before her name.
There's simply no way a name so perfect in symbolism was happened upon by coincidence.

>>174043194
Name one character that would fit the role better before Xion was developed.
You know, since she was retrofitted into that pre-existing role.

>>174043752
>He decides the story of the game
He still is in days
>singular scenario designer.
And Yukari Ishida
>You know, since she was retrofitted into that pre-existing role.
It was a role developed for xion. Namine could never fit the role, it would create a ton of plotholes and retcons
Get over your fanfiction

>>174047202
>He still is in days
No, he isn't the scenario director. Scenario is credited to Tomoco Kanemaki and the details of her role are explained by Nomura in interviews.
He specifically chose not to be involved in the scenario for Days, because he wanted to try dialogue as a change of pace.

>And Yukari Ishida
Is the name of an actress.
I know you got that from Wikipedia.

That name is nowhere in the credits of the game.

>it was a role developed for Xion
Yes this role (that is, "girl partially responsible for Roxas dissenting") that existed before Days started development was made for a character who did not exist until after Days started development.

Flawless deduction my friend.

lol
You're trying really hard to defend you're fanfiction but you are failing really badly

>>174047752
>Events
I assume this means cutscenes, which would explain why she's completely absent from the credits in 1.5, which are the ones I checked.
If she actually had a part in the writing of the story, she'd still be there, but since the cutscenes are brand-new, it's a different person responsible and credited as such.

>You're trying really hard
It's something he actually said in some pre-release interview. That Days was a story he wasn't originally going to tell, but he imagined that Roxas would have left the Organization because of a girl.

But nah, that can't be right! Surely he didn't think about those things when he was writing that plot point into KHII. It was designed specifically for Days, and that role ALWAYS belonged to the character that didn't exist until that game was already underway!

Do you have even a single brain cell allocated to critical thinking skills?

>>174047202
There wouldn't be any plotholes or retcons in a hypothetical "story of how Namine made Roxas leave" Roxas' memories don't come back until he gets to the computer monitors after seeing her for the last time (not counting post-returning to Sora).

>>174048193
>That Days was a story he wasn't originally going to tell
From Complete Director's Secret Report XIII
>Presently there are 4 main untold stories to consider: "the period of the King's absence", "the period of Riku's absence", "Roxas' time in Organization XIII" and "Xehanort's past". In this case, the story of "the period of the King's absence" is set in the realm of darkness. I am examining a way to tell these 4 stories so I might be able to find a way to tell them soon.
>that plot point into KHII
>At the same time as we were polishing off the KH2 project
>https://www.khinsider.com/news/Ultimania-Interview-886
Lol wat, he came up with the first idea of xion as kh2 was wrapping up. Story done and all
>It was designed specifically for Days, and that role ALWAYS belonged to the character
>Flowing from that, we began to construct the storyline, beginning with Xion's existence.
Yep
If you want to continue being an idiot, be my guest

>>174048636
>I am examining a way to tell these 4 stories so I might be able to find a way to tell them soon
It took 11 years to tell the first one
The second one still hasn't happened
The third was Days
And the fourth, also, has yet to happen (but might in KHIII?)

There is also no promise that he would tell them, just that he's looking into it and "might be able to."

>At the same time as we were polishing off the KH2 project
You're taking that completely out of context.

>We showed how Roxas left Organization XIII in KH2. At the same time as we were polishing off the KH2 project, we had assumed to a certain extent what Roxas' movements were during the time period when Days happens
During that time they determined the TIME PERIOD of that story.
>"Roxas definitely left the Organization because of the influence of someone close to him." And, we thought that "someone" should be a girl his own age.
This is happening at the same time as the previous bit.
>Flowing from that, we began to construct the storyline, beginning with Xion's existence.
So Xion comes after the concept.
Glad you agree.

>>174049385
I think he just wants his waifu namine to be relevant

>>174049159
>BBS+DDD
I guess at the time he was probably referring to Apprentice Xehanort, whereas I default to Master Xehanort at this point. My bad.
>Taking that completely out of context honest
You were.
You took it out of context and tried to represent it as saying something else.

Unless your reading comprehensions is just that bad, there's no way it wasn't intentional.

>>174049385
Actually as a character/arc I think she's totally serviceable, but her place in the story is nothing but a detriment to every other character and needlessly complicates Roxas's backstory.
Also it's fucking stupid that she does the anime-filler "everyone forgot about it!" shit.

>>174049638
>You took it out of context and tried to represent it as saying something else.
No that's what you're doing. You even made up your own timeline

You used that fragment to claim that Xion was created at the tail end of KHII's development.
It's clear from the full text that this is not the case, and especially not what that fragment was referring to.

That's called misrepresentation.

>It's clear from the full text that this is not the case
It literally is. The team thought up the concept of xion as they were finishing up kh2 development

I have no dog in the Xion fight but here some interviews:
>Q. Where did the initial concept for the character Xion come from? Was she perceived before the completion for KINGDOM HEARTS 2?
>Nomura:The name Xion and her background story was thought of and constructed during the production of this title, but we actually had the concept for a girl character like Xion drawn up since Roxas's defection from Organization XIII. Therefore during the production of this title, we just worked on expanding on the ideas we had for that girl character and wrote Xion's story around that concept.
>https://www.khinsider.com/news/358-2-Days-Fan-Powered-Q-A-with-Series-Director-2597

>-- How did you come up with Xion, who became such a key person in the storyline?

>Nomura: We showed how Roxas left Organization XIII in KH2. At the same time as we were polishing off the KH2 project, we had assumed to a certain extent what Roxas' movements were during the time period when Days happens, and thought that "Roxas definitely left the Organization because of the influence of someone close to him." And, we thought that "someone" should be a girl his own age. Flowing from that, we began to construct the storyline, beginning with Xion's existence.

>-- Who was it that gave Xion her name?

>Nomura: That was Kanemaki-san (Tomoko Kanemaki, scenario writer). I admired the many meanings included in it, and decided on it straight away. KH scenarios are always written by many scenario writers, but I was troubled about who to ask this time. Since this would be a continuation of the series so far, I couldn't ask someone without an understanding of the subject matter of KH. Kanemaki-san had previously written novels for the KH series, and I thought it would be good to work with her on the actual games, so this time I asked her.

>>174098243
alright thanks alot
guess ill keep this then, dont want to wait an hour again

>>174098340
just be sure to power through to quest 34 to get the event quest jewels

got 2 more questions friends
>>174098096
what is the number to the right of the stars?
and what do i spend the jewels i get later on? these special event pulls or should i save some for somehing?

>>174098340
Just do a lot of the story missions, those should give you enough jewels to pull three more times giving you a guaranteed iKairi 2

>>174098850
The number refers to the guilt tier. 1-2 are bad, 3 is 40-100%, 4 is 60-130 or something, and 5 is like 80-150.
If you can gather enough to get the guaranteed Kairi 2 do that. Otherwise wait until we get the EX medals.

>>174098096
Yes, save em for special event pulls, and Avatar Boards are pretty handy too

That icon indicates the Guilt level of a medal, so for example mose of the medals there have Guilt level 2 which means the multiplier goes up to 50, Isa and Lea are Level 3, which means you can roll up to 100, while iKairi is Level 4 and can do up to 130% more damage if you guilted her

>>174098850
you'll definitely have enough to mercy the kairi
after that spend all your jewels on the COST boards otherwise you won't be able to do anything remotely fun
then save for the 0.2 kairi that will be here in a few weeks

>>174100696
Fair enough, that's what I get for skipping games.
I will now since I really enjoyed 2, I also just bought 2.8

So i just started, and I got a pretty okay first three pulls (got an ikairi 2). I have 3 five star xion's, what should i do with those? Do i fuse them now to give one a special attack boost? Do i wait to evolve them before i fuse them together?

>>174100552
That just continues some CoM stuff.

Riku gets a lot of character development in CoM, it basically sets up his arc for the rest of the series.

>>174100773
CoM is nothing like 1 and 2 and will not be enjoyable if you like their combat.
>>174100830
Add one 5* Xion to another 5* Xion to get one dot on her and a trait unlocked. After that is done add the other 5* Xion into the one with a dot and get another trait roll. You don't need to evolve them until you hit the maximum number of dots that medal can have.

You should've played CoM before 2.
Really would've made Axel practically stalking Roxas even more unnerving. That and you'd know about the Organization and other stuff.

>>174103078
I was hoping they would be reasonable with what they expected me to know, since CoM was on a different console.
I think they were for almost all of it, with Sora and the gang not understanding what was going on, so I could catch up when they did.

True.
CoM has the best plot though. So it's worth checking out.

how do people deal bullshit numbers against raid bosses/union cross bosses? Is it just high levels or are there medals that are just that good

>>174103897
Levels mean nothing in terms of how high your damage is, their medals, and keyblades are just that good

>>174103897
Medal strength, guilt, and keyblade slot multiplier are where your damage comes from. And you know, buffs/debuffs. Player level means nothing at all and enemy level doesn't always correspond to enemy stats. But usually when you see something over level 200 it has bullshit inflated stats.

>>174104529
>bullshit inflated stats

Most enemy types will behave similarly tho.
Like morningstars will have high defense, colored copter fleets will give obscenely high amounts of gauge from app, etc.

There's no way to farm jewels. You can get 200 a day from the current event. If you want to get more you'll have to do all the story quests or play multiplayer for fucking years until you get enough coins to buy the boards.

One time I brought the movie to school when I was in middleschool (almost none of the other kids knew about the movie). I remember being surprised when the other kids were talking about how horrible Sarah was for not wanting to take care of her baby brother, and then how she was even more horrible for doing that chant, asking the goblin king to take her brother away.

I guess it was bad of her, but I didn't think she horrible. Although, I was an only child with a tiny broken family who hated children.

>>174121790
I'm just hypothesising. 0.2 was the tutorial from what I recall Nomura saying. Or at least something along those lines. Basically we get the Eraqus/Xehanort cutscene opening the game and then I assume we then cut to SDG arriving in Olympus.

Is there are benefit to getting to the latest story quest? I'm only on 285 but it is extremely repetitive.

Also, if I want to get good at the game, I have to try and get better medals right, and the only way to do that would be buying them? I don't know how to fight any of the tough monsters in events, like the big snowman heartless, and I was trying to get Vexen's hair.

>>174135551
You get jewels every 5 story quests so it's worth grinding them out for them. For later quests you're going to want some buff medals that increase your strength. Make sure if you do any banner pulls, you do them from the one with Kairi on it at the moment.

I only have 1500 jewels. Should I still make a mad attempt at getting I.Kairi since I don't have one yet, or save jews until I can try to get second I.KH2Kairi?

>>174135551
>Is there are benefit to getting to the latest story quest?

Jewels plus coins to buy hp and cost nodes in avatar outfits

>I don't know how to fight any of the tough monsters in events, like the big snowman heartless, and I was trying to get Vexen's hair.

Forget it. You need better medals if those are your best

>>174135551

You're not going to like this game then, repetition is the meat of the game.

Just do a small bit day by day and you'll get there soon enough. Don't try and do it all in one hit, you'll just tire yourself out.

>>174136443
Are raid bosses the best way to level up? I kind of blasted my way through to lvl 204 one day with the raid bosses. But now it takes extremely long to level up.

>>174136493
Yes. And once you hit 200ish it comes to a grinding halt. Not much you can do about it. However levelling has nothing to do with power or medals etc. It's just for avatar boards and more importantly cost nodes.

>>174136493
>Are raid bosses the best way to level up?
Yes, don't worry about levels at all, all they do is hand you some avatar coins (Which you should be using for AP and Cost first) and unlock new boards. You'll hit 300 eventually just from the events.

>>174143560
Wouldn't giant blockey/spikey hair be easier to animate though?

>>174143560
The hair, I imagine, isn't nearly as bad. They're mostly rather simply designed, in terms of direction/modeling. Lots of straight directions.

Probably the most complex hairstyle in the original cast is Roxas/Ventus.
Ephemera's hair might be shitty to do.

But Sora, Riku, Axel, even Terra, I can't imagine they're that difficult.
I don't know much about 3D modeling but I figure the process is just recreating the existing shapes into more refined/detailed shapes. So a spike in Sora's hair is that same basic spike, but they pull it apart into many strands of hair that create that same shape.

And it's a simple shape. Most of the cast's hair is comprised of basic shapes like that.

>>174130591
This game you mash Triangle to win

>>174143939
This would be true of the PS2 Era, however now we have full on Hair Physics which is a different ball game.
Now strands of hair need to have polygons in them to move and sway with the wind or whatever is moving. The spiky haircuts are infinitely harder than the straight ones like Riku or Aqua.

>>174144846
Even for a pre-rendered sequence, where I would assume the models are animated in a deliberate fashion that doesn't require physics calculations?

Where do I even start playing the PS4 releases?
I've watched my brother play KH1, played KH2 and 385/2 myself, but don't actually remember anything too detailed about them. Should I pick up 1.5 + 2.5 and play everything on release order? What about 2.8? Mostly just want to replay the first two games, but I'm clueless about the rest.

>>174145893
>Should I play everything on release order?
Yes.

>>174145893
The menu lays everything out in order except for one thing. Watch the 358/2 Days movie after you play KH2.

>>174145893
Just play it in release order. Buy 1.5+2.5 and 2.8, it'll get you caught up with absolutely everything. If you really want to play Re:Coded, 358/2, or Unchained then you can do those yourself.

So why do people dislike RE:chain? I was just making my way through it on PS4 and beat the first set of worlds in 3 hours on Proud mode. Usually if I died, I set up a better deck before I fought the enemy again. The battle system is so fun and unique, and yet fast paced and enables quick thinking in tight situations. I usually was the one to call it repetitive but it's actually really not.

>Rooms are much too big, making floor traversal a chore. At the same time, movement is de-emphasized compared to the GBA, where a single misstep could throw you into a battle you're unprepared for. Arguably, they're less visually interesting as well

>Mob battles are much too long, due to slightly bloated HP pools and an increased inability to meaningfully connect attacks. On the GBA, a well placed combo or sleight could effortlessly connect with all enemies on the screen, but in Re:CoM your attacks only affect a small angle in a vast 3D space, which increases the length of battle even further. Things in Re:CoM generally happen at a mainline game pace, which is markedly slower from the pace of battle in CoM.

Rooms were scaled to match the GBA sizes, but re-imagined in 3D. I had no such trouble. It takes a second.

You're right, it is arguable, because you are wrong. You can easily avoid battles if you wanted to, by simply not going into them. But you should be aware of that when smashing objects. You're also given a deck at the beginning that could handle anything fine, but it's your fault for being retarded by not editing it after the first world card or so.

I find that they re-imagined the battles well, along with all the sleights. They look a lot better and more cool looking; nostalgia is taking over you.

Attacks connect perfectly well, you just need to be smart about them. I had no problem connecting with any enemies for anything. Sliding dash, a sleight with Skellington's Gravity spell, you need to move around.

Mob battles are completely over exaggerated. I beat most of them in under 3 minutes because I had Blizzard as an early spell card. Three of them. Position yourself correctly and you can take out many enemies. Use your brain.

Difficulty isn't fucked, and the characters are much more livelier and a lot better in those really nice cutscenes, no matter how you describe them.

>rooms are too big
>somehow small enough that you can be easily trapped into an encounter
Hmm

>Mob battles are much too long, due to slightly bloated HP pools
Nah, not really. Especially if you're utilizing Sleights.
>On the GBA, a well placed combo or sleight could effortlessly connect with all enemies on the screen
This is patently untrue, as Sora and Riku's reach extended to the length of their weapon, just like in the 3D games. The Judgement Sleight on GBA was basically a screen wipe, however. But, again, this is Sleights and not their normal combo.

>Things in Re:CoM generally happen at a mainline game pace, which is markedly slower from the pace of battle in CoM.
HowLongToBeat has Re:CoM at 4.5 hours longer than CoM.
Taking into account the 3 hours of cutscenes in Re:CoM, that's a difference of just 1.5 hours.

>difficulty
To my knowledge, difficulty doesn't change anything other than the aggression of enemies, or how often they use cards. HP and damage seem untouched.

>Axel
>insane bloodlust
>ever
The script is largely unchanged from CoM.
Also, Axel was about 18 trillion times colder in Re:CoM when executing Vexen.

Well the main reason is because people see the card system, can't adapt, and then just hate it. That's usually the complaint since they're coming from 1 and expect it to be the same. Another complaint is the map card system coupled with the 99 limit means you could be stuck grinding, especially when you get near endgame and have those crazy high requirement doors. Outside of that though it's pretty inferior to the original in many ways.

>Room size is essentially double the size of any of the GBA rooms. The smallest room of Re:CoM is equivalent to the biggest room in CoM in terms of enemy encounters and just the size in terms of traveling.
>Ludicrous amounts of enemies scattered about, in a typical room you have a minimum of around 5 enemy encounters and it can go all the way up to around 8 or 10, can't remember exactly how many.
>To add onto this enemy encounters themselves have 3 waves of enemies with a minimum of 5 enemies all the way up to 10 enemies per round compared to the GBA's 2-5 enemies so battles take ages in comparison so you just Warp everything.
>Then you get the added problem of the EXP rate being destroyed due to all these multiple enemies so you have to fight twice as many enemies to match your GBA equivalent and run around fields twice as big to gather the EXP.
>Most sleights in general are now made worthless thanks to the 3D battlefield. Omnislash which used to be amazing now can't even mob anything and is a waste in decks, Thundaga's range feels smaller than Blizzaga, sleights in general just feel like they hit less enemies and if they're not full screen hitters now it's usually not worth keeping in your deck while way more felt viable in GBA.

>This is patently untrue
He's very clearly talking about how the enemies walk around and are spaced miles apart at times. Just compare a simple fight between the games, on GBA you will nearly always have everything grouped together and you can stack hits on them since your Keyblade reaches basically a quarter of the map whereas in Re:CoM your Keyblade works like in the other 3D games and the non-endgame sleights you can do usually can't reach anything more than one or two enemies on top of you having to chase things down constantly. Hell, let's just use Strike Raid as a very simple example, in Re:CoM you'll hit whatever is in the path of your target and again on the return, in GBA you can mob the entire wave. Or Blizzaga, in Re:CoM it's basically a spherical bomb that's a generally decent size for the 3D map whereas in GBA it's basically half or three fourths of the map. Hell, even the support cards are almost entirely terrible now due to the enormous map, Simba is basically the only decent one, Mushu is only good for Megaflare, Goofy is only good if you manage to get Goofy Tornado due to the range, Donald is completely worthless, and until you get Trinity Limit you might as well just make them sleight fodder.

>difficulty doesn't change anything other than the aggression of enemies, or how often they use cards
Difficulty changes enemy card values (Neoshadows for example have either 6 or 7-9 cards on Proud while in Standard they're like 5-8), how quickly they can sleight and use said sleight, how often they try to attack in general, how quickly they can shuffle through their deck (Proud is almost instant to counter you at times while in Standard you can see them rummage through their deck), I believe how many 0s they have sitting in their deck, and normal enemies seem to like to use their defensive stuff more (At least to me it felt like it, Neoshadows would be nonstop in the ground on Proud but on Standard they just fart around on top for ages).

Now, I've been gunning for the Re:CoM Plat (again) and this time around I've really been paying attention to the game, keeping in mind your common criticisms.

Room size, really, is not a problem. They're slightly larger relative to the character, and there are probably more encounters/spawns per room, but it doesn't feel bloated or unfit.
The largest room sizes usually have reason, like Teeming Darkness (lots of spawns) or Looming Darkness (room to be chased).

Enemy spawns are placed evenly around the room, depending on size. In a general sense, one or two per platform. In a large room like Teeming Darkness, they're spaced at about one per five to ten feet.

Enemy waves rarely go up to three, and many first-wave setups have very few enemies. If they have a larger amount, then the second wave triggers partway through the first. That happens, I imagine, to aid in enemy card drops.

Mega Flare basically replaces Judgement as the "kill everything" button. If you aren't using these Sleights to grind EXP, you're doing it wrong.

I disagree on Sleights, I think they've all got their uses, though obviously screen-clearers like Mega Flare are go-tos for Heartless encounters.
Frankly I think Sleights are designed more for the boss fights.

MP gain really doesn't feel that bad. I managed to accrue roughly 10,500 MP in standard play, which is more than enough to grab a few packs whenever I felt the need.
The problem is that Re:CoM's Trophy list makes you grind for them, so it feels like the drops aren't enough.
Aladdin was designed for grinding MP though.

I remember the GBA bosses being pretty damn easy. Except Larxene 2, who used to roadblock me in both versions of the game.
And as a kid, I was the guy that stacked his deck with 9s and 0s and just mashed A. Hell, in my very first playthrough, I completely forgot how to use enemy cards.

You never have to use a map card if you don't want to.

I dunno Moose.
I think you're exaggerating.

>>174156376
>implying i'm not grinding to lvl 220 for the costumes so my character fits my title

>>174156632
Ah. Carry on then.

>>174156442
>but it doesn't feel bloated or unfit.
It just felt like there were too many enemy encounters for me. Pretty much everywhere you'd look there would be some sort of encounter and it for sure felt like there were more than GBA had, even in small rooms. Coupled with battle length it got grating. Olympus also gets especially bad (Unless you want to argue the theme of the area) with how cramped encounters feel, the only one that feels okay is the starting monkey room since there's I believe three encounters for what amounts to a small hallway.

>and many first-wave setups have very few enemies
Wasn't one of the very first wave setups in Traverse Town 4x normal Shadows + 3x Soldiers? Agrabah has those 5 to 8 barrel setups that also explode, Twilight Town has those horrendous 10 Soldier setups in a circle that add on another wave, Olympus has the 7 monkeys or Wizards(I think?) with tons of the little mage dudes. I can only recall Wonderland as being lax with the enemy spawns, it was relatively low but the arenas were enormous.

>If you aren't using these Sleights to grind EXP, you're doing it wrong.
Yeah, that's the general way to do it. You either Mega Flare DI or you Trinity Limit CO but rarely kill the three waves. But early on you don't really have that luxury.

>Frankly I think Sleights are designed more for the boss fights.
Yes, this is how it felt with Re:CoM since that's when you're more likely than not going to use them. The enemies are just spaced out too much to justify anything really, Blizzaga was my go-to and even that only could get maybe a wave on a good day. I'm not saying sleights are worthless, but they don't feel as useful as in GBA.

>I managed to accrue roughly 10,500 MP in standard play
I remember that when I did any of my runs hitting everything in every room I spawned it would only produce enough to draw on floor 6 one section once with maybe an extra pack, and then in Hollow Bastion one section and a half.

>>174156442
>Aladdin was designed for grinding MP though.
The problem is that you have to wait for the three card spawns and then even when you use him he doesn't last long and you have to chase things down across the map and then grab the points as well. Yeah, he's meant for it, but it's a painful process if you are doing it. Like, a good run is something like 400 MP per Aladdin?

>I remember the GBA bosses being pretty damn easy. Except Larxene 2, who used to roadblock me in both versions of the game.
Vexen 2 freezes and absolutely loves to card block in GBA. In Re:CoM he felt like he was far more passive even on Proud and his shield was out for longer, but you can chalk this up to me not remembering the fight properly for the Re:CoM side, I just remember having far more trouble on him in GBA due to the screen size.
Repliku 3 and 4 are always the simple example since he hits like a truck on GBA, his sleights are basically room clears, and there's barely any room to dodge what he does dish out while in Re:CoM you can dodge roll a decent chunk of the attacks that he does use and he won't drop you to nearly dead from most of his attacks.
Marluxia 2 feels far simpler as well, you have far more chances to dodge, most of his attacks are slow, but on Re you seem to get less chances to actually hit him due to how high up he is.

You're right on Larxene 2 though, she's rough on both sides.

>You never have to use a map card if you don't want to.
The point isn't so much that you're using it it's that it's now added to the pool. I mean, you can argue it can be used as fodder which you're correct, but it's such a worthless card why add it into the pile in the first place? At least Random Joker and Roulette have their purpose compared to a pitch black room of nothing but Shadows.

>I think you're exaggerating.
I just hated every moment of Re compared to GBA so maybe that is clouding my judgement, but these are just some of the things I remember from those six playthroughs.

>Wasn't one of the very first wave setups in Traverse Town 4x normal Shadows + 3x Soldiers?
I don't recall that, no.

And up until Castle Oblivion with the Neoshadow spam, most, if not all large waves are made up of mostly smaller enemies like Soldiers, like Shadows, like Search Ghosts et al, possibly with a larger Heartless like a Large Body as the main threat.

They are, basically, designed around a 3D arena.
The big thing with the combat is that... Re:CoM is in 3D. CoM was limited to a very small screen, and so all the action had to be visible on that screen.
With 3D, you need more space for all the models to move around, you have full camera control so enemies are allowed to move without restriction, etc.
Hence, the waves are designed differently to take advantage of the new environment.
Imagine if the arenas were as constrained as the GBA? It'd be a clusterfuck.

>The problem is that you have to wait for the three card spawns
I found he was plenty effective with just one card. I also think I figured out how friend cards drop during that grind.
It seems like it's based on hit number, so Aladdin's combo often spawns a new friend, which can let you chain Aladdins.

All told my MP grind was probably like... two hours? And I didn't even get to spend them all before Regular Customer popped.

>Repliku 3 and 4 are always the simple example since he hits like a truck on GBA,
To be honest I think I'd call that bad boss design because it sounds like they're abusing the screen size to make the fight difficult
I also remember Vexen being a cunt. I think it's cause he could turn around in one frame and did it faster than other guard enemies.

I don't really know what the purpose of Bottomless Darkness is. Ya got me.

>I just hated every moment of Re
I feel you.
But now I feel like that was just frustration from the Plat. 'Cause I really dug it this time.
