#would be nostalgic to go back... but boring... bc its fucking plots lol

[davespwite]

i used to play on a minecraft plots server and roleplay on there constantly. when people would leave and come back, whatever group of 11-15 somethings that happened to be in the plot at the time would say "weba" because "welcome back" is too long, but we thought "wb" was too vague. it was used widely by everyone in the server. when i used this outside the server, nobody knew what i was talking about. got me thinking

kh3 after thoughts and feelings bc i literally can never shut up :)

negatives:

ive been reading around and a lot of ppl have been expressing sort of the same sentiment i felt during the entirety of the game? that there was something off and i cant put finger on what. i dont feel like it was the plot or characterization tbh like i feel like everyone was pretty much in character and a lot of the character’s personalities were expanded so idk something just felt weird and i cant tell wtf it is...i need to replay the game to try to understand this lmfao

as weird as this sounds i feel like there were not enough cutscenes with kh characters in them? like i feel like there was just too much of the disney worlds in the entire game to the point that i was pretty much...not bored but just only really looking forward to the keyblade war and what would happen in the final arc of the game. i felt exasperated with some of the worlds and how long they felt. which is stupid ridiculous because literally the point of kh is a mixture of disney + og characters. and i had never really felt that in any of the previous kh games? except for com and coded because fuck the uselessness of the disney worlds in those games but still i think im gonna skip a lot of the disney world cutscenes in my replay unfortunately lol

like i feel like so much could have taken place instead of the long useless cutscenes in the disney worlds (ya im talking about having to sit through the entirety of let it go and the other songs even though i genuinely liked frozen). i wanted to see more of the seasalt and wayfinder trio talking it out after they reunited. i wanted an explanation of how saix fucking came back in the very end lmfao??? i wanted a lot of things but i think these are the few that could have been realistically met and would not be surprised that others felt as well 

this is no surprise but the girls’/women’s treatment in kh games has always been pretty bad but kh3 is actually abysmal with their treatment of their few female characters. i knew kairi would be reverted to a damsel in distress with the trailers hinting it but it was actually so fucking disappointing to see the lack of kairi doing absolutely anything to contribute to the story outside of being sora’s anchor. not even seeing her train with axel and merlin which now that i think about it is so...ooc to not even touch on wtf and i dont understand why namine didnt appear for 95% of the game even though she was talked about so much and is supposed to be part of the main characters god idk

positive:

playing most of the game felt like coming home. i could see and feel the attention to detail in every world, cutscene, ability and this is so corny but seeing the beauty in all of those things made me think about how i have been waiting for this game for 14 years and i have it in my hands and im actively playing it now and this series helped me through so much shit and is again in one of the lowest points in my life.

the gameplay is amazing omfg just when i thought it was getting repetitive i tried out a new keyblade or shotlock or command and its so fucking entertaining and pretty to look at. i literally look forward to level grinding for once. the keyblade graveyard and final bosses were awesome, the mini games are entertaining as fuck, and i actually really loved what they did with the pirates world, i cant get enough of it

i think the game did a pretty good job of providing closure for most plot points, especially those of the wayfinder and seasalt trios. i fucking SOBBED at their reunions in the keyblade graveyard and i just felt like i could finally breathe a sigh of relief. again i feel like they all (including the destiny trio) deserved more time together on screen to demonstrate their feelings around the impending final battle? what they’ve been through since they were all separated? the relationships with sora? since a lot of was sort of implied or talked about behind closed doors but regardless of that i still felt like those parts of the story can finally be laid to rest and i guess thats what matters.

the epilogue and secret ending were amazing and i still cant believe luxu is xigbar wtf. this series has once again been able to have me by their feet anxiously waiting for the next part in the series, of what is to come as ridiculous and dumb and far fetched as it may be...i feel like im 10 all over again and im just stupid nostalgic, sad/happy that this saga is over, and just a mixture of everything else lol
