That's because they try to simplify heavy themes. They do this too with Kirby

It's like a bad English class essay every time. Please, provide some introspection into character motivations or something!

Yeah no that feels insulting, patronizing even.

It makes go feral but like in the bad way

This exactly how nearly every single Guilty Gear lore video talks about the story

Got upset when one of them looked at the X/XX games and said "nothing happens in these games" before skipping to Ramlethal's declaration of war

This is why its more fun to just explain to your friend directly what Kingdom Hearts lore is rather than showing them a video. Spend a good 30 minutes explaining why Roxas looks like Ventus and just hear their confusion is so much more fun.

anyone who still tries to pretend japanese media is cringe or "weird" needs to be thrown to the mariana trench

galaxiasword.bsky.social•1 day ago

I should do the same, but for Rareware platformers.

I’d imagine I won’t be surrounded by yes-men if I do. 🫢

That is why I don't watch Movie/Anime/whatever recap channels on YT.

you should only be allowed to use that title format for guilty gear and kingdom hearts, nothing else

the blessed antithesis is the guy who has a nine-hour video delving into lore he clearly adores, rather than shitting on it

"and, get this, you have to play every entry in this story-heavy series of games to understand the overarching plot! huh!? what were they thinking!"

deadlobster019.bsky.social•20 hours ago

"And you needed every console known to man to keep up with the series!"

matttgfx.bsky.social•19 hours ago

see that's an actually valid criticism, but people started to complain about it even if they're easily accessible

deadlobster019.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I think it was a bit blown out of proportion with Kingdom Hearts, even if the game releases were all over the place.

matttgfx.bsky.social•16 hours ago

it's definitely not applicable anymore since most of the obtuse releases were remade to be available on more uniform systems, weren't they?

braveneww0rld.bsky.social•21 hours ago

I read "what were they thinking?" in the same way as the AVGN LOL

titantrainer.bsky.social•20 hours ago

WHAT!? You're saying that I SHOULDN'T start from the last game in this story-heavy series? That's crazy! That's like saying I should start from the first episode of season 1 of a TV show; that's just nonsense!

What next? You're gonna tell me I should watch the first film before its sequels?

yuzuvhs.bsky.social•21 hours ago

wondering if theres a guy out there whos the opposite of this. guy who plays who through every numbered final fantasy in order to fully understand the storyline

yuzuvhs.bsky.social•21 hours ago

also i think this criticism was kinda real for kingdom hearts before they had collections with just Every Game on them so you had to have a different console for every different game but that hasnt been a thing for more than 10 years so lol

soapyfae.bsky.social•7 hours ago

Not to mention that mobile game that you cant even play anymore that actially does end up having some plot relevence

akashicweaver.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Capitalism forbid they make their consoles backward compatible

matttgfx.bsky.social•21 hours ago

well there's that, another problem was that some KH games were on different manufacturers' systems, so backwards compatibility wouldn't have been a savior there

matttgfx.bsky.social•21 hours ago

yeah KH's prior issue was that all these plot-relevant entries were on vastly different systems for the longest time, but people extend that complaint to just about any series with multiple entries a lot, even if they're all on the same system I've noticed LOL

"And then Bobins used a ritual to summon a GOD (WTF!) of battle, to aid them in war in exchange for sacrificing 100 Bobinians. If that sounded a bit confusing, uhhh... yeah. You're not alone there, buddy!"
