I dunno, if you took KH1 as a standalone game, then the final antagonist would have ultimately resulted to be nowhere as deep as it should have been for a Final Fantasy-esque game -

By the way, my stance on so called "retcons" is that it's not at ALL a true retcon to subtly introduce an unseen character by having in-universe gossip talk about them as Something "A" because that's what the characters believe for whatever reason, then have Game B reveal that character to be truly something else all along. If it all works to create consistent plot/backstory that's consistent with the frontstory however intricate both might be, then it's well done and not worthy of the negative connotations that the term retcon usually carries.

Thus far from reading the KH Wiki about Birth by Sleep's story, though (because I'll never be able to play it on PSP >___>), I think I have only found one legitimate retcon:

BUUUUUUUUUUUMP.

Some old screenshots.

And I've finished BBS, so I can talk about that!

Okay, so looking at the screenies, look at the clothes- it appears to be pre-KH2 characters, but seeing worlds other than the Islands, it has to be after KH1. But less than a month after KH1, Sora went comatose in Days/CoM, where KH2 started. Coded, on the other hand, while having KH1 Sora is based after KH2, for some wierd "virtual" thing that I'm not gonna read about. And let's not forget the Twilight Thorn in the very first picture. So again, it looks like it'll be "future" for me... And I found this.

"Presently there are 4 main untold stories to consider: "the period of the King's absence", "the period of Riku's absence", "Roxas' time in Organization XIII" and "Xehanort's past"."

Now, since then, those last two have been told, in Days and BBS respectively. The first is unlikely, since that was KH1. The second however... well he took the appearance of Ansem, SoD at the end of CoM didn't he? So that's unlikely too, and the thing in the OP seems to agree-

"# This story is full of mystery, and will be beyond expectations. Due to the timeline, players will have to think hard about the idea, as to not be fooled.
# The player will realise the scenario in time, but for the meanwhile it will be a mystery twist."

So, there we go, it's more than likely future.

However, there's one thing that's possible, and that that those three screenies are no more than promotional, and have nothing to do with the actual game. In that case... well I've got nothing.

I heard something about this having to do with Sora and Riku getting the Mark of Mastery (see: KH:BBS). I don't know how valid this is, though, so take it with a grain of salt.

This is PROBABLY the game alluded to in the secret movie of BBS (which despite meeting the prereqs for, I have yet to unlock), in which Sora teams up with Riku to solve all the problems left over after all the games ended.

In more game related news

I can't beat Mysterious Figure with Aqua. Even slightly. (Haven't beaten Sentiment with anyone but her either. Or Villain's Vendetta with anyone. :C )

I mean christ all his moves are OHKOs without second chance and once more, why does he even HAVE combos programmed in?

Use Fire Surge or Thunder Surge. They're actually really strong against him. Also: level the crap up. It helps. Alot.

So, fill it up with Fire/Thunder Surge and two Curas. I think they load faster than curagas, and you'll be using them a lot. And, of course, when he goes invis, keep attacking - you can still hit him.

I really need a way to deal with Iron Imp 4's fire spin, he can staggar combo it to kill me at 1 HP.

Also I note that Terra can in fact endure some of Sentiment's attacks with not-1 HP! Go that guy's defense!

(I want II4 first because I feel I can beat him with just a BIT moar skill and get ultima weapon)

The fourth one is easy, it's the third that spams it so much. Basically, keep dodging until it stops spinning, then unleash your shotlock.

In Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, if a player collects 20 of the 30 available trophies, there is an exclusive secret movie with a hint that links to the next game, Kingdom Hearts 3D (working title), which will be available on the Nintendo 3DS.


From what I've heard about Re:Coded, the secret ending is known as Kingdom Hearts: Reconnect. For those who've unlocked the secret ending of BBS, those words flash at the end, which implies that BBS's secret ending is talking about the 3DS game.

Which means we possibly know the general plotline, then, and a good enough reason to think that it comes after KH2/Coded; Sora's trying get back with the people who made him who he was.

I think he's on a quest to restore Billy Zane as Xehanort's voice actor, personally.

U:

No off to the current guy, but come on, Zane made the character.

Aside from a huge chunk of story, you're not missing much, Bane. Haven't played too much so far, but the gameplay feels really awkward compared to the others and the load times are atrocious.

Install the game to your PSP. Fully. Helps the load times a lot.

Clearly the huge chunk of story is, in fact what I"m most interested in.

Peytral, you can redownload games from the PSN either five or ten times (I forget) for free after purchasing them

So unless you still play all of them frequently, you won't be losing anything by deleting one
