Do you understand how insane it is to have the opportunity to turn your creative strife into a meta narrative about your own creations? As if they themselves came to life to lament the fact they could never exist as they were? What is more Kingdom Hearts than that very premise?
Alright, time for a nuclear take:
I actually think that if you want to get someone new into the Kingdom Hearts series, telling them they *have* to play in release order has a good chance of turning them off from the series.
My honest opinion? The average gamer should probably be given KH2 first. It’s the most iconic, most recognizable, and most beloved game in the series. It has all the iconography and characters people expect to see in Kingdom Hearts. They may not understand all of the story beats, but the general plot isn’t impossible to follow on its own. And I think that starting with a game with much more modern, fluid gameplay, compared to the clunky, dated experience that is KH1, gives them a far better chance at being more inclined to try the *other* games in the series after the fact.
If they get through KH2 and want to get the context for all the things they didn’t understand, THEN they can play KH1 and Chain of Memories to fill in those gaps. But by starting with KH2, I think you stand the best chance of turning the average player into a KH fan in the long term than by forcing them to start with KH1 and then CoM.
@UnovaNostalgia@CalmUxie He was only taking a break until earlier in the year. But depending how things went moving forward he would decide if he’d stop competing altogether!
Don’t know if this will get traction but I’m hoping to see some background artist portfolios along with your rates for your work. May have a gig available
