358/2 has a really long intro?

[swagbon]

I swear I've been playing for almost an hour and haven't gotten to control the game once. Enjoying my first playthrough of all the KH games but this one is wild so far.

It a movie...

Starting to feel that way! Glad it's not just me.

Unless you really care about the lore, you can just skip everything in that. There is only about 10 minutes of actual info you will require later on in the series.

Who is Xion
Origins of Roxas
Axel's Reason for being a douche.

Literally everything else, is simply never mentioned again.

By skip, I mean go in and just hit next, next, next. Dont like skip it and ignore it. You need to finish it at least once to unlock the 2nd treasure in Re:CoM.

days and recoded are a movie. Those games are not remastered in this collection.

Yep, same with Re:Coded. Just a series of very long cut scenes.

What??? Does ReCoded unlock anything too?

No, it's just for the story.

...and there's not really a lot in Coded. Like, I could write two sentences here and save you 3 hours or whatever it is. That game was 100% filler, and only got a remake because it was the first chronological sequel to KH2 after two consecutive prequels.

It IS a movie. There is no game.
The two DS games (Days / Coded) weren't remade, instead, they were turned into movies.

[Ariko]

I highly recommend actually playing it or at least watching a playthorugh of it if possible. The movie presentation is severely lacking.

[sumolagann]

There is a version on youtube with the ds cutscenes that weren't covered in the movie added to it, so like a definitive longer version. There may be other minor small details in the ds cutscenes vs remake that were left out sometimes, like subtle animations, but not included in that version since it is a mash up with remake cutscenes taking over any ds ones.

here it is if anyone is interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6c5Mrjh3Vzw

could also watch a no commentary after the remake or play melon ver instead, but the mash up was good.

Well technically re:coded was a remake already. So if it gets a remake, it'd be re:re:coded.

[sumolagann]

Actually, I guess coded should get the same treatment as well, not very important of a game and the missing scenes are more filler, but it's missing text scenes between the 3d cutscenes in the movie version and replaced with a mickey mouse voice over tldr. Since there is no mash up ver right now, you're better off watching the movie ver on the collection though if you cared, since it has a few new cut scences.
