Is KINGDOM HEARTS HD 2. 8 FINAL CHAPTER PROLOGUE Even a Real Game, Y'all - SEO Play, Episode 21
video description
1. You get paid as a media outlet to give us news, and you give us this.
2. As a media outlet you gave us (the community) some wrong/misleading and biased information; which affects people who are new or are interested in the kingdom hearts series.
3. I dont know if you played all the games or not, but if you havent, you have no opinion. You have every right to say that its not for you, if you dont like and havent finished the games, but that is it.
4. The Story of Kingdom Hearts spans across all games.
Yes, its unfortunate for xbox players as they are currently not able to play any kingdom hearts game on an xbox console.
5. Your jokes are not funny to a lot of people. You are trying too hard.
6. In the thumbnail for this video it says is it worth it? , in the title it says -. Even a real game. -.
This gets viewers attention to your video; However, viewers want to know if KH2. 8 is worth buying, that is why they clicked to watch this video.
You should have stated all the available and relevant information, then once that had been done your final statement should be logical and based on the information presented as well as the consideration for viewers who are interested in the game.
7. Do your job properly, its unfair to people who are interest in kingdom hearts. it causes people of have played kingdom hearts to become upset/angry toward you.
That is all im going to say for now.
it would be much appreciated if you guys created a more appropriate video instead.\r\n

I've been a fan of the series for about ten years now. And although I love the series very much, I'll admit that it has its problems concerning plot and such. KH Unchained X for example is a decent smartphone game, but also the biggest cash-grap I've ever seen. So, yes, it's not perfect.
But neither was this video. Your comedic timing is almost nonexistant - there was only one time where you got me to smirk, and that was at your co-worker's saying: -If you don't say the name, KH 3 gets delayed ten more years. -
Those exaggerated pauses and constant camera switches really don't do anything to make your lines funnier. Not that they're that funny to begin with, actually, since you only focus on how much of a mouthful the title is and that the game is not coming to XBOX.
If you wanna make fun of sth, here are some ideas: the absurdity of how many Xehanorts and Soras exist, the convoluted plot-line, the obsession with the number 13 and the letter X, the fact that before the collections 1. 5 & 2. 5, you needed to buy different consoles and handhelds. There are more than enough things to make fun at that would also show you've done your research and care about the series. Then the feedback from now angry KH fans would have been different.

a) Kingdom Hearts 1. 5 and 2. 5 games are PlayStation (and Nintendo) exclusive cuz when KH is a Japanese games and Square Enix tends to produce for Japan first and than for the rest of the world, and as Sony and Nintendo are Japanese it's only logical why it's not on xbox.
b) in order to play KH Dream Dorp Distance you need a touch screen, and as i recall the xbox one controller doesn't have it unlike the Nintendo 3ds and the ps4
P. S. Why would anyone wanna play a game that is meant to close an entire storyline without learning the story itself. 0. 2 and Dream Drop Distance are direct links to Kingdom Hearts 3, also 0. 2 is a filler that one needs to understand what happened to Aqua, how RIku met Mickey, how they escaped the realm of darkness while x back cover serves as a filler to the keyblade war and the events after that everyone wants to know about since khbbs and kh x. sorry that this game franchise isn't that simple. in this one the story is important. if you guys don't f--- get it replay them, cuz look like you missed a lot

I'm not even mad, As a kh fan I only want to state some of my opinions, I definitely believe that the remakes were necessary and do not classify as the other games who release the same crap with no care for the gamers. The remakes were to reach out to newer fans, I'm only 15 and so I was extremely young when the original kh released. Not only did I get to play the games because of the remakes but I got introduced to a new series I really enjoyed. And if any of the remakes were justified, it is 2. 8, not only because it comes with new content, but do more people can enjoy kh 3D without a 3DS. I am a little upset that I can't play the remix on the Xbox one, but in no way does that undersell or lower the value of the game to me. Also Kingdom Hearts can't run in fumes, they need to make revenue to not only fund the company but give more money to game development. Just as you said, kh3 has been in development for a long time and they need resources to increase production speed

Wow this has to be the worst video I've ever seen. Let's being with the fact that KH3 has never been delayed it has been in development which is stated at the end of each trailer we have seen for it. Next Square have been working on this game since 2013 that's when they announced it and gave us the first trailer so they only been working on it for the past 3 years not as long as you claim. Now for KH3d it was called that because it was on the 3ds it was to avoid confusion when 3 comes out. Lastly is 2. 8 worth it yes it is because one KH unchained x is a movie that explains more of the back story of kh and finally because kh 0. 2 which is the newest bit of content and story that will lead into KH3. As to why it's not on the Xbox one I'm not really sure why as Square. As a video game news outlet you guys should get your information correct first before reporting it.

I'm going to judge this video for what it is, no bias because I'm a Kingdom Hearts fan.
First off, the comments are confusing the hell out of me. Is this a news outlet? A comedy skit?
Well, I don't think it matters as the video fails at both.
The news outlet? This video is simply filled with false information. Like people say, this video rivals IGN in therms of research.
The comedy skit? This one I would understand. However the comedy was either flat or onsulting towards fans. Sure, insulting the fans can be -funny-, however I don't see that as comedy. The only good joke was the one with the name, alas even that joke was executed poorly. Maybe it's just me but non of the 'jokes' were funny.
I guess you have to like this kind of stuff

Why are people so salty about this video. It isn't even a rhetorical question, I sincerely don't understand what got anyone mad or displeased. After the video ended, it just seemed like a standard SEO plays video, which I enjoy quite a bit but then I saw the likes to dislikes ratio. Also if you disagreed with things she said, just chill out a bit, people have different opinions, there is nothing wrong with expressing that you disagree but there is also no need to be hyperbolic, rude, or crass. So dislike if you want just be nice, because at the end of the day we are talking about games, really good games but still not worth getting angry about.

To the People giving the video crazy dislikes: Chill out. The video isn't even bad, it's actually kind of funny, and I've been a KH fan since Chain of memories came out on the Game boy Advance so I probably love the series more than about half of you.
To the people making fun of KH fans being -butthurt- all the time: You're making fun of people on the internet you all sound 12, including the -butthurt cry babies-
Shut up, Grow up, watch the video. Don't like it? There are millions of other videos.

As a Kingdom Hearts fan that grew up playing the series, this video wasn't so bad. lol she brings up some very valid points. Like how many times did you roll your eyes playing through the Alice in Wonderland world, Agrabah, and the little mermaid world? Y'all better not lie and say you weren't a tad bit annoyed. Nonetheless I'm excited for 2. 8 and will be getting it day 1. It's definitely worth it.

Just watching all of these SEO play videos and this is the first one where I looked at the comment section, and can I just say these comments have not aged well. Though I suppose these people who apparently don't understand satire or hyperbole didn't write a good comment in the first place. I'm glad this negative feedback didn't end the series.

Kingdom Hearts was never Microsoft it's always been Sony. Why on earth would they magically bring old games from Sony to Xbox? That wouldn't make any sense. Be grateful you Xbox fans get 3 and you get 3 because it's being made for 3 the past games are remastered not remakes so they can't bring a whole new system magically.

I can see where they are coming off because when they announced 2. 8 I lost my shit BUT all the interviews with nomura make it justifiable and I come to understand why they'd make it. For people who immerse the story it's really important for people who played 1 and 2 they don't need it. At all

Who cares how many there are? As long as they are good (Which i think they are, and most fans would agree with a few exeptions) and serve their purpose of filling in the gaps and fleshing out the story and characters im more than fine with a 2. 9, 2. 9. 5 or whatever.

Aside from the bit about KH3 being in development for 10 years being wrong, this video was a decent skit. I wonder why there are so many dislikes, but then again KH fans are quick to defend the series without actually watching the video.

Scrolling through the comments. Something seriously feels off, normally people appreciate Simone's sense of humour and delivery for what it is. The best content Polygon puts out, but for some reason the dislikes are pouring in.

It's funny the crap KH and 2. 8 in particular are getting, considering the worship for MGS and Kojima, when KH' s plot is no more nonsensical than MGS, right down to 2. 8 being pretty much -KH3 Ground Zeroes-.

Hm, I dunno, yes? It also leads up to KH3 since it has like two playable games that lead into it, 0. 2 being quite literally KH3's PROLOGUE.

Not completely a joke, kind of want the games on PC rather the two platforms I currently have them on.
