Square Enix debuted first footage of an Aqua boss battle in Kingdom Hearts III as well as new information during a stage event at Tokyo Game Show 2018.
Here are the information tidbits:
-Although Kingdom Hearts III is the end of the Xehanort Saga, it not the end of Kingdom Hearts. Director Tetsuya Nomura said he wants to continue Sora’s story.
-Kingdom Hearts III‘sGummi Ship was created by a dedicated team of 20 to 30 people. There are two modes: Exploration Mode and Cardboard Mode. Exploration Mode lets you freely explore an open-world-style, extremely spacious cosmos. In Cardboard Mode, cardboard, gems, sweets, and more appear as materials for Gummi Ship customization.
-There are more than 20 mini-games.
-There will be a secret movie. However, they are looking at different means of implementing it in order to prevent spoilers. This does not mean making the requirements to see the movie more difficult—rather, they are thinking about something like releasing it at a later date as downloadable content.
-Online elements will be considered after work on the main story has been completed. They are looking over proposals.
-Character ages:
Terra: Around 20 years-old
Aqua: Around 18 years-old
Ventus: Around 16 years-old
Young Xehanort: Between 18 and 20 years-old
Master Xehanort: Mid-80s
-There are more than 10 worlds in the game, according to co-director Tai Yasue.
Kingdom Hearts III is due out for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on January 29.
………….we knew this shit was an issue that staff has been ignoring for ages but it finally came to bite them in the ass
hey general psa that in the notes theres a bunch of really stupid misinformation bullshit (as i should have expected) abt how this is a fandom thing, about fanart/fanfiction, and i would just like to clarify for as many people as i can that this is not a fandom thing at all, it is an issue targeting IRL minors.
minors have been running “sex work” blogs, selling private snapchats, et cetera, using tumblr as their platforms. there are also adult rings of CP (photographs and videos of IRL minors) distributors on tumblr that have managed to slip by filters. this is the issue being looked into by law enforcement, this is the issue being pursued by tumblr, and it is the reason the purge is being done so hastily and messily (protection of minors being sexually trafficked is generally more important than avoiding Jane Doe #193′s doctor who blog being nuked by accident). reporting fandom blogs to tumblr for written content and fanart is only going to confuse the matter further and make it more likely that minors will be put at greater risk (if fake reports come in massive quantities and drown out the real reports or make alarm fatigue likely).
