So exactly what are we using to describe "JRPG"? I thought people were using it to describe console-based RPGs with the tile movement and the random encounters, and the turn-based menu combat. KH is a full on action game, though... And the promotional stuff barely features any Final Fantasy stuff.

Also, I'm talking about fans of the series somehow thinking it's a Final Fantasy game.

What?? What Final Fantasy characters are working with Disney characters?

If KH was a Final Fantasy game, Final Fantasy characters, and the series history in general would be the core of the game, the central focus. It's not. The Final Fantasy characters are cameos, and at best, supporting characters.

Do you guys think the series is a The World Ends With You game as well?

A crossover doesn't mean it has to be as comprehensive as you say, not even close. There are Disney worlds and Final Fantasy characters and gameplay staples. Ultima Weapon, spell names, characters, etc. It IS a crossover.

It's a crossover just because it borrows spell names and the Ultima Weapon? And what gameplay staples? It plays nothing like a Final Fantasy game.

Also, saying it's a crossover just because of the characters is like saying Super Mario RPG is a Zelda/Metroid/Mario crossover. Or that Link's Awakening is a Zelda/Kirby/Mario crossover.

Well first off it's not a Final Fantasy game it's a Kingdom Hearts game, and Kingdom Hearts games feature original characters, characters from Disney, and Square Enix characters with the majority of them being from Final Fantasy

There
Does that description work nitty picky

Also why the fuck do you keep calling it a Final Fantasy game when literally no one calls it that

like I dont know anything about subsequent games really but you didn't pay any attention at all to the story of KH1 if you think the FF characters are peripheral. That's true of some of them, but Squall in particular drives some of the main god damn story

The FF characters aren't the same as the "real" FF characters tho. They're alternate versions from Hollow Bastian.

Or did that change? KH's story is so all over the place I've long since stopped paying attention.

They are practically non-existent in the plot's overall importance save for one instance in KH1, and again in KH2.

So where were the FF characters when Sora first encountered Ansem on Destiny Islands? Where were they when Sora first got his Keyblade, and Destiny Islands was destroyed by the Heartless? Who was looking for Sora in Traverse Town? Who teamed up with Donald and Goofy? Which 3 characters that were childhood friends did the story focus on? Who was it that went to Wonderland and rescued Alice? Who was it that went to Olympus to fight Cerberus? Who was it that Malificent was grooming into being another wielder of darkness? After the 6 princesses of heart being Disney characters, who was the 7th princess of heart? Who was it that Ansem possessed? And who was Riku possessed by? And who was at Castle Oblivion? What members make up Organization XIII? How many Final Fantasy characters had a hand in the Organization's downfall? Who went and kidnapped Kairi?

Now, who was it that was relegated to plot exposition status, or tending a shop, or being an optional boss?

You kinda gotta weigh the importance Final Fantasy characters have compared to literally every other character in the game.

it don't matter is KH came first

what matters is that there are FF games that have the same combat system

and since they were made by the same guy, you can't say otherwise


it is bait because you are ignoring tons of key points like the overall template of the game being copypasta of FF

items, magic, enemies
and all the new KH chars are made by the artist who makes all FF characters

I mean, the answer to at least one of these questions is FF characters (they were looking for Sora in Traverse Town) and many of the answers are also not Disney characters. IIRC the FF characters you meet in traverse town are working with Donald/Goofy/Mickey so for purposes of the plot the only thing that makes Goofy and Donald more important is the fact that you use them in your party.

You're not saying that if they weren't named after Final Fantasy things, they couldn't exist, right? They probably used names from Final Fantasy because of A) branding, and B) it's a nice, lazy way to name a bunch of stuff.

because cure, curara curaga is a final fantasy spell
so is fire and blizzard
so is potion

sora fighting is based off of warriors like Tidus

the heartless are black mages, behemoths, demons etc straight out of Final Fantasy
