Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2, that's cool. I wonder how they hold up.

Both Kingdom Hearts games... I am so glad I held off on them. I really need to hurry up and finish of LEGO Jurassic World so I can get into some of these new Game Pass offerings.

Just finished Arkham Knight & Minecraft Dungeons so perfect timing to give No Man's Sky a go given its massive post-launch changes. Thronebreaker for my chill out game.

Both Kingdom Hearts along with Dungeon of the Endless out now, sounds like NMS gets updates in the afternoons so maybe out then.

Playing the content in this order makes the most sense:

1.5: Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix

1.5: Kingdom Hearts: Re:Chain of Memories

2.5: Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix

1.5: Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Cinematics (These include the story beats of the original 358/2 Days game for the DS)

2.5: Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep Final Mix

2.5: Kingdom Hearts: Re:Coded Cinematics (These include the story beats of a old Phone/DS game)

2.8: Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance

(Oh god) 2.8: Kingdom Hearts: 0.2: Birth By Sleep - A Fragmentary Passage

2.8: Kingdom Hearts X Back Cover film

Kingdom Hearts 3

Kingdom Hearts 3: Re:Mind DLC

Some people choose to watch 358/2 before 2 and tbh it loses it's impact if you don't play through 2 first.

I don't think I've ever seen a post that's made a game seem more unwelcoming. :lol:

I highly recommend the Waypoint podcast series on the Kingdom Hearts plot told in chronological order.

Who needs to bother about the deeper lore of the Kingdom Hearts series? Just enjoy the gameplay and exploring the various Disney worlds, along with the interactions that come from those Disney worlds. Some of the truly original stuff can offer some good things as well (yes, I'm one of those who likes KH2's opening tutorial with Roxas), but anything regarding the deeper lore I couldn't really care about.

I hate Disney. Might still play them.

Can you make Donald Duck die?

Yes. He'll die, over and over. But you can't kill him yourself, even though you'll want to.

So you can let him die? And you actually see him die?

Not in the way you want, no. He'll just be knocked out. It's not like you'll see him stabbed in the chest with a giant key, left to rot in his uncle's bistro.

This is out on Thursday for Console, for some reason not mentioned in the recent announcement.



Purgatory, Wyoming, 1888.

A place of gun smoke and darkness, sin and damnation, wendigos and witches. A shifting, chaotic world that takes its form from the memories, culture or beliefs of the souls who pass through. When a dead man awakens with only the memory of a figure in black, he sets into motion a chain of events that have truly mythic consequences.

Step into the boots of the dead man William Mason (voiced by Ron Perlman) and descend into the grim and gritty world of Purgatory in this fast-paced cover shooter which combines the fluidity of twin-stick controls and tactical cover usage. Put your skills to the test - Dodge behind cover as you try to outgun your enemies in the unknown procedurally generated hunting grounds. The Wild West has never been this dark.
