I completely forgot about this second trip to Traverse Town.One thing I will actually praise Dream Drop Distance for, it's that it does a pretty good job at foreshadowing many of the twists and plot points that come up in the end game. It's nothing I can get into now, but I look forward to...

Oh great, just what this game needed: A shoddy tie-in to a movie that was "coming soon" when the game came out.In between when we recorded this episode and the time this episode is released, Joe Parlock from Let's Play Video Games wrote an article criticizing Disney for treating it's games like...

In this episode, we had some plot occur for about 3 minutes, then the Disney worlds took over.I don't really have anything to say about Pinocchio. It's just kinda there... like many other Disney worlds in this series.That said, I really do enjoy that Riku, in particular, is getting to explore how...

For something as decidedly family-friendly as Kingdom Hearts claims to be, The Hunchback for Notre Dame is such a strange choice.For reference, this is the "Hellfire" song I mentioned during this episode when talking about how dark this story is.First off, I have, since the time of the recording,...

At last, we are in the home stretch on the Kingdom Hearts Primer. This is the last sub-series in this major project that has taken Sam and I over a year and tons of our sanity. Finally, we will have recapped all the story you need to know for Kingdom Hearts 3.After the long and grueling season on...

Welcome to the Re:Coded section of the Kingdom Hearts Primer. It's just to be a great and long-lasting season.Syke.Yeah, not much happens in Coded. So we won't spend much time on it. In keeping with that theme, I won't dedicate many words to it.I will point out that Sam did a great job in editing...

Here it is, the final episode of the Birth By Sleep segment of the Kingdom Hearts Primer.Sam and I harp on this a lot, and it's one of our biggest problems with the reveal in Blank Points: One of the easiest ways to lose me in the plot of a big franchise is to give is to negate loss or death in...

It's getting close, guys. Big reveals are going on and there's a lot to take in. Buckle up!So much goes on in this episode that it's difficult to delve into it in a single post. The big problem is something I've talked about multiple times in these write-ups: Birth By Sleep obsessively explains...

Welcome to the beginning of the end... for Birth By Sleep.By far my favorite moment of this episode is when Sam, after doing some plot calculus in his head, comes to the conclusion that this game, when taken in context with that which (in terms of release date) came before, makes the whole...

At last, we're solidly in Act 3.We've suddenly gone from not much happening at all, to a lot happening all at once. Out of all the new topics introduced, there are two big ones: Eraqus and the X-Blade. We'll table the X-Blade talk for now. Instead, I want to focus on Eraqus and his questionable...
