Kingdom Hearts Digital Tourism!

Attention, avenger!
The opinions expressed in the column reflect the views of the author and do not represent the positioning of the Legion of Heroes team as a whole.

From Lucas Rafael Lost in a very dense plot, I try to keep it to the essentials to proceed with a minimum of understanding of what is happening. It usually works. In Kingdom Hearts for example, I did not play any franchise entries that span multiple consoles. Now that everything is badembled in a remastering for PS4 I may give him a chance. (If someone does not fear the ideal order to get through the franchise, thank you.) But I did not understand everything. that I saw unfolding in Kingdom Hearts 3 . I understood things by staying true to the essentials. That Xehanort is bad. Even if I groped in the fog of my personal ignorance of the expansive mythology of the franchise, I find Kingdom Hearts something very unique and that hardly exists outside the video game media.

I played Kingdom Hearts 1, 2 Dream Drop Distance and a little coded before at Kingdom Hearts 3 . Things like coded I thought that they would not be taken seriously, but KH3 insists that all of his ancestor's baggage be taken from their luggage, which may frustrate beginners. But who says Kingdom Hearts 3 is a beginner's game? This is a product clearly aimed at longtime fans. And that's when I realized that I was in a niche somewhat dislocated among the players of the franchise. I like to play Kingdom Hearts to get better.

The world of bearing in KH III is special.

The first Kingdom Hearts m eaten hundreds of hours on PS2 . I did not know what this game with characters was emos on the cover next to Donald Duck and Dingo . One day, I rented it and when I first came to Alice in Wonderland it was too late to break the spell. They created a Disneyland digitally related to a completely crazy narration about friendship and darkness, whose protagonists are boys and girls with anime features and shapely sharp hair.

Kingdom Hearts would never exist outside of video games. Kingdom Hearts for me became synonymous with digital vacation at Disney without a pbadport, where I would go for a ride with my partners Donald Duck and from by Goofy through films that marked my childhood. No, I have never had a lot of friends.

The worlds of Disney are rarer in KH3 which made me a little saddened. Still, they are great, especially. The fact that the game gives you a mobile phone so you can orchestrate selfies with characters from Pixar adds even more to the cyber-tourist value of the game.

That's what this text consists of. About Disney Kingdom Hearts, How it plays with our nostalgia and how amazing it is that a company known for Japanese RPG games enjoys the copyright of a giant World of entertainment weave an inflated narrative that, for whatever reason, encompbades movies and characters like Mickey, Malevolent, Donald Duck and Pooh Bear .

Sunday Role …

You Never Played Kingdom Hearts and you are curious because you saw a giant tennis player talking to Elsa Frozen leave without fear. The worlds of Disney are treated with great respect in these games, easily triggering the triggers of their nostalgia that will give you the impression of living a little bit of the past. Kingdom Hearts is a museum of popular culture retaining zeros and a digital catalog of one of the biggest names in the entertainment industry. Not enough of this, all areas of this museum are interactive. What is curious about the worlds of Disney in this franchise, is that they rarely advance in the plot of the game. Mechanically, they give you levels and objects. Narratively, in some worlds, the Kingdom Hearts plot does not work.

Sora and the frozen sisters

In worlds such as Monstropolis or San Fransokyo ; Sora and his party have more agency in the unfolding of events. While worlds such as the Caribbean or the Kingdom of Corona only duplicate the plot of their respective films, casting a hint of heartless game) and people hooded in between. Whatever it is, everything is always treated with enormous respect. The quality of the animation is good. The soundtrack of the film badails the ear. The world of Toy Story in Kingdom Hearts 3 is technically better finished than the first film of Toy Story .

The Face of Mike Wazowski …

My Favorite Franchises Are Still Kingdom Hearts II ] and Dream Drop to this day. The latter counts on worlds dedicated to the movies Fantasia and The Three Musketeers which are real jewels to visit. Yet, I'll never forget when KH 2 m played in the black and white past of Disney exploring old studio shorts like Steamboat Willie .

. The game itself addresses these pocket worlds of Disney by a tourist bias. When you get there, the incoming cards are displayed. Depending on the world, your characters acquire distinct visual elements, adapted to the environment. The menu of attacks and objects gains new visual ornaments to match the atmosphere. And if you shop enough in the store, you even get a postcard of this universe. It's adorable " They went to Traverse Town and they remembered me !"

Kingdom Hearts II is a giant

When the story of Kingdom Hearts enters full mode Nomura (director of the game), he is just adorable. The characters speak of clones and overcome the darkness with strong friendship while Mickey stays tuned to everything with a frown in an overcoat with more closures to slide that no practical function requires. This contrast Disney / Final Fantasy carries in itself a very strong involuntary mood which is annihilated by the seriousness of all those who participate in the conception of this universe. Voice actors in animation and gameplay, Kingdom Hearts does not want their cynicism, although it is easy to evoke. Kingdom Hearts wants to preach a scrambled message combining friendship / light with darkness / individualism and succeeds surprisingly. Kingdom Hearts is a living work of postmodern entertainment in which Eastern narratives clash with Western narratives, the past infiltrates the present and the Donald Duck has more zippers than 39. a hood needed for practical purposes.

I like Kingdom Hearts for the singularity it shows. entertainment work. I understand that this is a valuable product for fans. Many people who read these lines love Kindom Hearts a thousand times more than me, precisely because of the connection with the characters and the plot. It is difficult to follow a franchise with so many games without developing a strong bond with it. Just like the general public loves Disney to have a life sprinkled with content Disney fans love Kingdom Hearts for having invested hours and hours And if you decide to embark on this adventure with very little or no previous knowledge about Kingdom Hearts respect the bare minimum. : Friends brandishing swords in the shape of a key against evil faces. Finally you will find Hercules Mickey and take pictures with Rapunzel .
