Kingdom Hearts III - Pre-Order Now To Unlock The Magic - January 29, 2019!

Does some treasure chest availability open up later on?

I've scoured Olympus and it says I'm only at 87% chests found.

[Tyrath]

Nope, you should be able to access all of it now.

[Anoat]

You'd think at some point I'd get tired of hearing Goofy go "H'YUCK, I THINK THERE'S A HIDDEN EMBLEM NEARBY" but it really doesn't get old.

[Kirin]

Okay. Found them.

The giant red box on Olympus should have been a giveaway. And then the smaller one hidden in the foot at the base of the mountain. Oy vey.

Shit is like pushing a "stand here for 1-5 minutes and look around" button. Some of them are really creative, but some I feel blend in waaay too well. Monstropolis and Twilight Town are the only two that I've 100%ed naturally so far.

Just reached the Caribbean. It feels like they put way more into this world than any other by a long shot. I thought Port Royal was small, then I took a different path away from the barracks. 40 minutes later, I have no idea where I'm at. Made my way to some settlement that is a full blown town, but lacks much to it it seems. Really missing that world map function that shoulda been in.

If I remember correctly, most all of the treasures and emblems are available during your first play-through of each world except for like 2 in Monster's Inc. But all treasures+emblems on each individual world are 100% available as soon as you beat that world. And nothing is miss-able

Unlocked the Ultima Keyblade and finished the final fight and watched the final cutscenes and secret movies and blah blah, will put in spoiler tag:

Spoiler: show

Ultima Keyblade wasn't too bad. Doing the Sledding in Arendelle was tedious, but there's a nice little route that lets you farm wellspring crystals pretty easily there too, so that made up for it.

FUCKING RIGHTS they brought in Mark Hamill to reprise his role as Eraqus. With Christopher Lee passed for Ansem the Wise and Leonard Nimoy passed for Xehanort, I was pretty sad to not have them for those roles. If they didn't bring in MH I would have been really mad. That being said, Rutger Hauer to fill in for Xehanort and Corey Burton for Ansem, well, not bad choices either. Of course, the power of Disney brought in a ton of talent too and a lot of reprised roles too which was awesome.

As for the ending, so.... Kairi was saved but Sora was lost in the Final World is what I got from the clip before the secret movie, what with her crying and him disappearing. And then the secret movie itself, holy fuck, Nomura is bitter about FFXV lol. Even used some of FFXV's music mixed in with KH music too a little. And the next game will have to do with something involving 7 darknesses and 1 light or blah blah, we'll have to wait another 10+ years for that I'm assuming.

It'd also be nice if instead of just the final battle, you could play through the whole Keyblade Graveyard bits. That part of the story was pure candy for me.

All I have left is to platinum this sucker. Synthesis will be whatever, but the mini-game trophies look annoying as fuck. Not to mention the Gummi-ship secret boss. At least level grinding looks pretty easy.

Also, Ultima Keyblade is OP as fuck, fucking looooved it. The Pirates Keyblade was also a lot of fun (I'm also biased towards anything Polearm/Lance because lolDrg), and of course Ever After is also fun and OP with Magic and AoE.

Pirates can be a paaaaaain in the ass to get 100% treasures and emblems at because of how vast it is lol. I just said fuck it and used a guide.

[Gokulo]

Just got to pirates, game is fun and all, but those cut scenes man...

[Melena]

This times 100. 5 minutes of action, followed by 5 minutes of cut scenes, followed by more action till the end of time.

[Shenrien]

The game is best experienced by skipping all cutscenes in the disney worlds and then not skipping them leading up to the keyblade graveyard.. aka after sanfransokyo or pirates.. whichever you choose to do last.

I don't think it's much of a spoiler but literally everything you do in disney worlds much like in previous KH games have ZERO fucking impact at the final confrontation. Congratulations you watched tangled, have an OP keyblade if you do a magic build. There is some humor in the cutscenes but they are just too frequent and too long.

[IceSylph]

Differences between JP and ENG dialogue in certain scenes. Obvious spoilers are obvious.

I was just about to ask this because I'm finding myself falling asleep not giving a shit about the disney crap so thank you

[Gokulo]

Finished last night. Want to get Ultima Weapon and do battle gates today, not sure I want to platinum the game though... Mini games are not my thing and it feels some of them could be annoying. Also, is getting 99 a huge grind? Considering you finish around @45

It's fast. Make EXP food and do the Olympus battlegate.

It's not bad at all, actually. There's a few Battle Gates I've found that dish out a good amount of exp and one in San Fransokyo that not only gives good exp but drops a ton of the harder to find synthesis materials like the Wellspring and Hunger Crystals, Lucid Crystals, etc.

I did 45-60 at the Battle Gate in Olympus near the base of Mt. Olympus. I'm now up to 72 doing a combination of a Gate in the Toy Story world, and the previously mentioned one in San Fransokyo.

[Gokulo]

Nice, thanks. Forgot food even existed tbh haha. Or, rather I made it when I had ingredients, but have not used it a single time during the game

Don't feel bad, I didn't know it was a thing either and I've been grinding EXP the past few hours without it.

[Tobi]

If you do plan to go for plat, don't even bother grinding to 99, you'll hit it naturally just doing the synthesis trophy, which is the only real pain in the ass trophy imo.

[Shenrien]

The Lucky Ring from post card dramatically cuts the time down on mat grinding, just save scum until you get it. Lucky Lucky in KH3 is very powerful.

[Tyrath]

Are post card rewards random??
