Not much. My life's depressing as is. Though I would miss the few friends I have. Also, I'd really like to play FFXV and KHIII...And a few other things. But given a good enough opportunity I'd find it hard not to pass up the chance.

"In a desparate move to rid himself of Terra once and for all, Xehanort turned his own Keyblade on himself, and began to sink into the pool of darkness that spilled forth.

Aqua dove into the darkness to pull her friend out, but soon realized only one of them would be able to return."

Busted out my PSP to quote this from the Timeline in BBS word for word. I tried looking for a link but after about ten seconds of searching I gave up and decided to go for the source. Xehanort was the one who stabbed "Terranort" with the keyblade. I already stated why he would want to do this. It's easier to force control over Terra if they're no longer in the Realm of Light. The more darkness there is, the better for Xehanort.

Really should've posted it when it still mattered...but there's a new ROM being shown in this video here displaying some interesting new Mighty No.'s.

On a serious note, I wonder if Call will be just a sprite change from Beck.

Do you mean when Terranort tries to plunge himself in darkness after the battle with Aqua?

If so, it's confirmed that Xehanort was the one who did that. It only takes a few seconds to look up the Trinity Reports within the game and read about it. He did it to make controlling Terra easier by plunging the body in darkness. Makes sense considering how obvious it was that Xehanort did not have total control over "Terranort".

I am the best at math. Also, while "online" isn't free on the PS4, paid subscription games like FFXIV don't require PS+ so you don't need to worry about adding that on to your costs.

Ancient news is ancient.

Soren showed signs of annoyance when some angel barged in. Apparently someone wanted to speak to Cal and when the call was over Soren was curious as to what was it about. Cal didn't seem to want anyone overhearing what she had to say. He looked down towards the ground noticing he had yet to even dismiss the mist from earlier. Allowing the flower to dissipate, Soren thought about asking Cal about the call. Soren stood up and walked over towards the girl.

"Someone found Mali!" Anna's sudden appearance caught Soren off guard. It had been a few days since had had last spoken to her. Soren had begun to think that she had abandoned them in favor of her new family. "Um...aren't you going to do anything about it? You were so willing last time."
"About what?" Soren hadn't heard what Anna had even said when she arrived. He was too focused on her actually being there.
"Mali. I didn't stick around to ask where she was but you could use that mirror thing to find out can't you? Anyways, I heard that--"
"I never asked how you found out." Soren stated bluntly before looking over at Cal. She had been willing to leave her sister behind once but now it seemed like the others might have been willing to take her in. Considering Mali's attitude about--well, everything--Soren could only imagine Mali would not want to be around them. If anything, she might be dangerous to have around. But she was one of them...
"Do you want to go get her?" Soren asked Cal. "We could go together. There's a chance she might actually listen to you."

Not sure why, but I have a feeling you don't make good cookies.

Huh. Never noticed this thread before. Where was this hiding? ...Besides in this forum.

Enemy Design
Best: KH1 - A lot of those basic Heartless designs, mainly the "pure" Heartless, are just so memorable. Everyone knows what a Shadow looks like. And a Neoshadow. And a Defender. KH2 had Nobodies but there are so few of them, without counting Gummi missions, that KH1 is still easily able to blow the other games out of the water in this category. Plus, Final Mix's Phantom looks great in white.
Worst: Days - All the reskins. All of them. So many...

Boss Design
Best: KH1 and KH2 - Kurt Zisa and Phantom were so well-designed. You really have to think things through unless you want to die a lot. I have a love/hate relationship with Phantom's Doom spell and Kurt Zisa has a lot of neat little moves that force you to stop for a moment and change tactics. As for KH2, love 'em or hate 'em, reaction commands on bosses look awesome.
Worst: BBS - Mysterious Figure and Vanitas Remnant. Why are their stats so needlessly buffed? Going against either at level 99 or level 1 makes very little difference because they can usually 2-shot you no matter what. And MF? He can one-shot you even if you have Second Chance and Once More with his weird...leap in the air, throw sword, drag you up, then smack you down move. Neither are fun even in a challenging way.

Combat Flow
Best: KH2 and Days - So smooth. You can even change up your combos...mid-combo. Days is less smooth but it does have a great feel to it despite the hardware limitations.
Worst: Re: Chain of Memories - Everything feels so choppy. The camera is somehow worse than KH1's which doesn't help matters. Sleights are cool but there's really no flow to the game because of the battle system itself.

Character Abilities
Best: BBS - A really good job was done in making each character feel unique even when all their stats are similar. There's all sorts of combo finishes, magic specific to characters, and Command Styles that really put BBS in a class of its own. Character exclusive abilities like Terra's Chaos Blade or Ven's Tornado are seriously overpowered(in a good way!).
Worst: DDD - Riku and Sora are pretty much the same. Oh and I don't want to level up a 100 different Dream Eaters to get every ability for both characters. Even in BBS grinding was so much faster.

Character Progression
Best: KH2 and BBS - I don't have much to say about this. It just felt right. Of course, this isn't counting BBS's cheap secret bosses.
Worst: DDD - The drop gauge had me constantly trying to work things out so both Riku and Sora would be at the same point in both story and level. It started out easy but there were points where I just immediately dropped from one character just so I could keep working on the other.

Difficulty
Best: KH1 - No matter how you pace yourself, it's hard to feel underleveled in fights unless you're at a high difficulty setting. Bosses and regular enemies never feel cheap and even Sephiroth isn't too hard once you've got a solid strategy.
Worst: DDD - It's hard to explain this one. There were points where it felt like the difficulty just suddenly spiked. I think the only reason I never died in the story was because I grinded a lot.

Integration of Magic in Combat
Best: KH1 and BBS - Most of the magic is useful in KH1. Fire's great for sniping, Thunder is a great room clearer, Stop is awesome for cheapening up most fights, Gravity shortens up the Rock Titan battle immensely, and Aero is good for everything. Oh and Cure is great in every game. In BBS...well since they're tied to commands you never have to worry about running out of MP. Having a completely magic-based deck is viable and maybe even a little overpowered if you have some good commands. Plus, the highest tier spells look really awesome.
Worst: KH2 and DDD - Thundaga is easily the best out of the attack spells you get and makes Fire and Blizzard pretty much obsolete. Magnet is only really useful in three areas(Pride Lands grinding, that one Tournament round where there's a hundred Heartless flying around, and speed-running the Xemnas battle). Reflect is great but you don't really need it unless you're bad at blocking so most of its applicability is moot. So that just leaves Cure which is the only one you'll ever really need. And DDD...well, Balloonga is really all you'll ever need besides a Cure spell.

Guarding and Dodging
Best: KH2 - Sora's block seems to be pretty much unbreakable except for a few special cases. So yeah, it's really freaking good. Also, even without Dodge Roll you still have great evasive options. Aerial Dodge is all-around great.
Worst: BBS - Why does Terra get the worst dodge in the entire series? Why? It has horrible recovery time and makes MF an absolute nightmare even if you want to abuse Thunder Surge.

NPC Interactions
Best: KH1 - Having some quality time with Beast was great when you lose your other party members. Made him feel special compared to all the other party members you get. I dunno, that part really stood out to me more than most others in the series.
Worst: Re: Chain of Memories and Re: Coded - I already played KH1. I did not want to watch the same world-based story arcs play over again with less meaning than before.

Sidequests
Best: KH1 - Rescuing the Dalmations was neat and didn't break the flow of the game. Finding and beating the secret bosses was also really fun. Also, getting postcards felt strangely rewarding. Maybe it's just the satisfying sound effects.
Worst: Days - Those nonstory missions were only superficially difficult. Loads of health for everything is not fun!

Arena/Colosseum
Best: KH2 - Strangely enough, skateboarding to Hades for the Hades Cup was fun. I really liked the four-on-one battle with Cloud, Tifa, Leon, and Yuffie too. That fight never gets old.
Worst: DDD - I don't like Flick Rush. At all.

One thing I wish was added to Kingdom Hearts was a world based off of Treasure Planet. That's all, really.

"Good. Better than yesterday."

Soren stared at the angel as he brushed himself off and took a deep breath to settle down. "Why did you teach Anna that disappearing trick?"

"That girl could use something like that. Besides, you have enough to learn without adding that to your list. You're still a little sloppy with the mist. Put some more focus on keeping its form in check. Don't let it get all...wispy."

"Why? It's good enough to fight with as is."

"See those trails of mist coming from your hands?" Soren looked down and nodded. "You're wasting strength by letting that happen. Even the smallest amount of wasted effort can be the difference between life and death. Got it, kid?"

Soren growled lowly muttering "yes" in response. It seemed that after Araquiel was satisfied with his answer, control over Henrik's body was returned to the man. Henrik appeared to be more tired than Araquiel let on when he was in control. Giving an angel control must have put a lot of stress on his body. Were all humans that fragile?

"You know, there's something Araquiel hasn't tried teaching you. He can't push this body that far without killing me. But I think you'd have better luck with it than me."

Soren raised an eyebrow. He had thought the man had left all the training advice to Araquiel while the attempts of "bonding" with himself and Anna were left to Henrik. "What do you mean?"

​

Soren rubbed his cheek as he sat up feeling uncomfortable. The room was smaller than the one they shared back in Hell but as he looked around the place felt even emptier. It was because his sister was not around. Soren thought about going to see her but doing so only meant having to face his mother and how could he possibly do that? Just by existing he got her dragged into Hell, cut open, and abandoned at some foreign place. Even if that didn't happen her chances of surviving were still slim. Just because Anna didn't feel the need to blame herself didn't mean he felt the same.

He breathed out as he watched Cal from his side of the room. She would tell him he was being too hard on himself and he would agree with that. But still... Shaking his head, Soren pushed those thoughts to the back of his mind as he stared down towards his hands. Black mist swirled around until it took form in his palm solidifying until it was almost perfectly still, as if it was a black crystal, despite the substance's wish to break apart. Soren smiled to himself as he stared at the shape which he had willed it to be. It reminded him of his first attempt which was so poor that he had a hard time believing Cal liked it at the time. He turned the black flower over in his hand as he thought something over.

If I had all the resources I ever needed, I'd do nothing but work on music. I'd be a hundred times the musician I am now(which still isn't much). Unfortunately, I have to go to school. I work as a math tutor over at a college here so, obviously, I can't work from home.

So is the real question about a preference of working indoors or outdoors? Unless you're doing lots of online work at home you don't normally get a choice of working from home. If that's the case, I prefer indoors.
