Additional Information for the User Awards 2015 Hottest Male and Hottest Female have been combined into Hottest Members to be more inclusive for the memberbase. As per usual, you may nominate up to two people for this category. There will be two winners and two runner-ups in this poll. "Worst" categories are open nomination. If you are uncomfortable with possibly being nominated and want to be preemptively removed from the final poll, please PM me and I will note it down. When nominating threads and material for the Artistic Awards, please include a link if they are contained in a thread posted on the site! This makes it much easier for preparing the poll.
The nominations for the 2015 KH-Vids User Awards are now open! Hey guys! For those who have never participated in the User Awards, or need a bit of a reminder, there are two phases: nominations and polls. A user will not appear in the final polls without first being nominated by their peers, so if you want to see someone in the poll, make sure you nominate them! Another important thing to note this year is that we had a poll to decide whether the 'worst' nominations would be self-nominations or open nominations and open nominations won. If you feel you would rather not be put on the poll and don't want to know if you've been nominated, please approach a staff member and request it. Before we begin, make sure you’ve read the general info on the User Awards. If it has left your questions answered, shoot me a message or post in this thread before nominating! 2015 User Awards Categories Spoiler * New categories indicated by this pink color!

(4) Best Podcast Guest Most Wanted Podcast Guest Best Podcast Episode Most Memorable Podcast Moment How do I nominate users? Nominations will be sent to a number of different staff members, who will then tally the results and deliver them to the admins. Categories, as you can see above, are organized into major groups; each staff member is given a group to handle. You will start a personal conversation with the applicable staff member, listing your nominations. Please take time in considering your nominations, because once they’re in, there’s no going back! Please try to utilize only the user’s current username. We will not hunt someone down if you put their past username or a nickname, and we reserve the right to ignore the nomination all together if you neglect to follow this rule. You are allowed to nominate two users per category. For group categories, such as Cutest Couple, you can nominate up to two couples. The same goes for threads. You may not nominate yourself for anything but the two specially marked categories (see above). However, you may nominate a couple you are in for Cutest Couple (or any similar category). You will include the entire category list in your message, even the categories you are not nominating for. Please do not nominate members who do not belong in the category; I realize it’s hilarious to vote William, a Premium member, for Best Overall Staff Member, but it spoils the awards for those who do deserve them. There may be exceptions. These nominations cover the time period from the previous User Awards (summer of 2014) to this year’s (summer of 2015). If a member held a position during that time period, they are allowed to be nominated for it. For example, if William was a Sectional Moderator until February of 2014 but is now a Super Moderator, he is allowed to be nominated for both Best Sectional Moderator and Best Super Moderator.

Part of me wonders if it'll be like the Clock Program feature in Re:coded. You got certain passive abilities as you "Clocked" out a gauge on your touchscreen, and we you maxed it out you got to do a particular finisher move. I could see this being tied to Keyblade Transformations, in that you could get multiple options for transformations for a particular Keyblade as you level it up and get to choose which Tier 1/2 you want to use. Of course, judging by the trailer that Mt. Olympus Keyblade transformation was very tailored to that world, so who really knows, lmao. Still pretty exciting stuff though (AND I HOPE IT IS LIKE THE CLOCK PROGRAM B/C RE:CODED'S GAMEPLAY DESERVES LOVE)
Playstation Access recently posted a video regarding their interview with Tetsuya Nomura. In particular, they have eight points of interest for fans regarding the development of KH3, with some being quite insightful as to the relationship between Square and Disney, as well as hints of what to expect in KH3! You can watch their video below: 1. How does Nomura select Disney worlds to use for Kingdom Hearts III? The staff working on Kingdom Hearts titles find Disney properties that they think could have an interesting or cool gimmick to them. They present this to Nomura, who then selects the world(s). They do listen to fans to figure out directions of what worlds to have, but Disney does not put ideas forward for the worlds. However, Disney allows the Kingdom Hearts team to view screenings of new films before they are released or even announced. This lets the team pick out specific films they might be interested in adapting, and they can then begin discussing the inclusion with Disney liaisons. 2. Will there be any certain specific Final Fantasy characters in Kingdom Hearts III? Nomura declined to give any specific details on characters, yet states "[he] wants them in." Lightning Returns Again? 3. Where is Kingdom Hearts III in its development? They do not feel comfortable putting a percentage on the development, but have stated that the key gameplay mechanics, worlds, and ideas have been finalized, and mass production is underway with a large team dedicated to seeing it through. 4. What do the next-gen consoles let you do for Kingdom Hearts III? The capabilities of the PS4 and Xbox One allow for the Kingdom Shader(s), as well as more seamless loading, better lighting effects, much larger map areas, and a huge reduction in loading screens (not officially stated, but it's been suggested that there is a possibility that the only loading screens may be those when transitioning from world to world). Further more, movements have been advanced (water will ripple, Sora's hair will move, the tip of the Keyblade will light up with the color of the spell you're casting, etc.). 5. What changes can we expect to see in combat? Ally and Enemy AIs will be more advanced; enemies will work together, and allies will interact with you in more ways in combat. Keyblade Transformations and Attraction Flow techniques are available based on "good or favorable" timing. Nomura emphasizes giving players more choice into how they approach battles. 6. Will there be new minigames/sidequests? Nomura states they can't state anything right now, but the development team is having lots of fun building them as we speak! 7. What will character progression and leveling be like? Nomura stated that he and the team felt the KH/KH2 system was "perfect" due to its relative simplicity. However, there will be some new elements that can be leveled up, the most notable being the Keyblade itself. 8. What about the Final Fantasy 7 remake, and how that's going alongside Kingdom Hearts III? Kingdom Hearts III is a lot further into development than the Final Fantasy 7 remake. Therefore, they do not get into the way of each other's development, as both have separate production teams working on them. However, some creative elements from one may influence and bleed into the other.
Fridays are a pretty nice trade off for that. O: Hopefully your studio classes go well!! I think my schedule is sorta similar lengthwise, only because I have to work 8-12 for my internship up through October in order to graduate lmao
Atlus uploaded the intro to Youtube. that chie/yukiko butt bump goty 2015, not a doubt about it

Category suggestions are clooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooosed. Nominations will be opening this weekend, so stay tuned!
I felt lukewarm about it at first, but it's been growing on me. I do still think it could use a tiny bit more pop like the KH2 outfit, and the gloves are still weird to me. They look too big and the end of them nearest his elbow looks way too wide for them to not just fall off, lol. On the whole though, I like it a lot. The yellow buttons and plaid collar are especially great, and his feet are actually proportional to his body! ND HIS PANTS DON'T LOOK QUITE AS RIDICULOUS. I guess I'm sorta sad about the KH2 outfit getting replaced, we only reaaaaally got one game with it, and like...four with the KH1 outfit, but it ain't too much a fuss for me. Outfits: KH2 = KH3 > KH1 > KH3D
https://i.imgur.com/4siUi7x.gif i'm so glad atlus supports my chukiko wants and needs
Yes! This is pretty close to Best Bromance, so I'll have to pass on it. ;c Maybe! Yes! Unfortunately have to pass on this one, since it could potentially be kinda rude. ;c
This one was a lot shorter than I hoped, but still pretty good. It looks like the masks are somehow tied to Persona/Demon spawning (at least, that's what the eye bleeding the protag had going on looked like). Demons erupting from torsos is pretty cool, and the dungeons look great so far. Curious who the painter dude is. Excited to see if they're gonna have anything at TGS or something like that this year, especially in regards to a release date. If they're sticking with 2015 releases for JP and NA, it's gotta be coming up soon in some way.
Most Likely to Be President: Maybe! Most Likely to Get Banned: THE MAYBE PILE DOESN'T STOP GETTIN TALLER Additionally, suggestions end tomorrow! So, send 'em in folks!!! Also, be sure to comment on the "Hottest Members" thing pls. I'd be willing to push category suggestions back into the weekend if people are itching with them, but otherwise tomorrow they're closing down shop.
Frozen is almost definitely going to be in KH3 in some capacity, whether it's a world or a summon or something along those lines. It's one of the highest grossing movies in Japan and still has a huge following in the US -- I reckon Disney's not gonna pass that up without a fight, lmao. I'm okay with Olympus/Agrabah/Wonderland returning as long as we get to go to some new places. It looks like we'll actually be going to Mt. Olympus judging by all the foiliage and landscape in that segment of the trailer, so I'm hopeful that they'll change it up enough so that it feels like a brand new world(s). I'm also glad that it seems that the Play Arts rendering they had in the trailer was just old content, that render of Sora in the header loosk much better (if sort of blurry compared to the background. Maybe this is a picture they took before sharpening the renders up? idk). The fact they have a solid release window for Japan has me PUMPED. I'm betting on mid 2017 at the earliest, considering FF15 is likely gonna be the huge focus for 2016.
A week from the impressive trailer of Kingdom Hearts 3, Famitsu and Dengeki have managed to wrangle up Tetsuya Nomura for yet another interview! The full interviews have yet to drop, but we do get a brief overview of the content: The battle system doesn’t use deck commands like Birth by Sleep, but rather classic commands like “Attack” and “Magic.” Free run is being implemented this time, so Sora’s mobility is a bit out of the ordinary. Beyond jumping and running, this likely consists of things like wall running and jumping, etc. With the exception of Olympus, most of the worlds in the game are brand new. The Tangled world was revealed at E3. Xehanort’s story will come to an end in Kingdom Hearts III, but the Kingdom Hearts series is not finished. (Rather, Kingdom Hearts III brings to an end the “Dark Seeker” chapter of the series.) A plan has already been decided regarding the whereabouts of some of the characters fans might be concerned about. Nomura says he wouldn’t want to do something so disappointing as just settling things. A landing point for the release window has been decided, but they can’t say anything yet. The latest news is promised for the D23 Expo Japan Kingdom Hearts fan event on November 3. Development is on track. Things like secret movies are also under consideration. Source: Gematsu
Cutest Character Shipping in a Roleplay: I'm not really familiar with the RP Arena so I don't have any idea how big shipping is in roleplays, haha. ;_; I'll add it to the 'Maybe' section for now, but if it is something that's prevalent, then I don't see the harm in adding it in. Most Memorable Roleplay Moment: Added!
I'm replying to them soon! :B I saw yours but hadn't had a chance to yet
