While I made the connection that Sora had a reaction to the castle slide in Deep Jungle due to having Kairi's heart inside him, I never honestly interpreted the slide as _literally_ being the Hollow Bastion castle pre-corruption, I just though it was similar looking enough to provoke a feeling of familiarity in Kairi. That being said, now that you've shown them side by side they are _a lot_ more similar than I remembered so perhaps there is an interesting mystery there as to how an image of it came to be in another world.

The first game still has the best story and atmosphere to me.

i don't know if this is just me spouting nonsense, but seeing all the things sora presumably made in his room, along with being excited to build a raft, makes me thing that he's a very creative kid, which i think is really neat, especially whenever you factor in the idea of creating gummi ships. i like to imagine he's telling donald and goofy what pieces to go where and stuff in a little gummi garage at traverse town whenever im building my ships :)

All these videos about KH1 have given me a much bigger appreciation for this game

i love these so much, i really appreciate all the details and secrets and world interactivity. that’s my biggest flaw with KH2 other than some storytelling issues. the worlds looked nice but were very barren and plain. i wish they’d make a modern KH with the same kind of depth in the world / level design as in the first game

Also, both Triton and Genie already know about Keyblade by the time Sora is in their worlds

one thing I'd like to say, not sure how much others are aware, but it helps me out sometimes during level one runs of the game. Whenever you beat a world, whether it's sealing a keyhole or not, the world is devoid of heartless until you leave and come back, which gives the feeling that you've made the world a better and safer place. It would seem a little odd to some if immediately after beating the evil mastermind of a world that you still had to fight enemies right after. It gives a chance for you to explore danger free and collect chests and things without fear of being stopped by battles. Some areas and worlds are less noticable, like monstro, and neverland forcing you to leave or locking you off from the heartless filled sections. Agraba does the same, no heartless in town, and even shopkeepers in stalls for the one and only time in the game, but you can't enter the cave of wonders until you leave either.

A couple of these I already knew about, but I never knew about Sabor breaking the tree house

That's so weird. I just noticed the inscription on Invisible's sword today and wondered what it meant. Now this video shows up in my feed

I never knew the lore behind Gummi ships and materials until this video. Its really cool and I'm glad I've learned about it!

9:27 they might be sassy, but it's more likely trying to aid player thought. Typical of point and click games, where a player may think of dozens of solutions to a puzzle, but the developer only implemented 2 solutions. It's the developers job through dialogue to direct what is important and what isnt; and the job of the player to interpret the intent. I suspect that is what's happening, with perhaps a side of sassy

@@Evnyofdeath So, were Square Enix just supposed to change the color of the UI to match Xbox's color of the Y button? I personally think they should've changed the triangle to be a Y, as a mod for the emulated version of 2FM did that several years ago with implementing the 360 controller's face buttons (which, imo, be thankful that Microsoft changed those buttons to have the letters be colored instead of the rest of the buttons when they designed the Xbox One's controller, since those would've stood out even worse), but the yellow would've been just ugly, honestly. Without changing a fundamental part of the game's code, outside of the PNGs for the face buttons, that's been the same for over 15 years, there's not much else they could do really. It blends better in KH3, though, with the newer engine & more realistic, if stylized, graphics, so it more stands out because of the older engine they made the games on before it. So, it's up to the individual. Personally, I don't think it's that big of a deal, but I get why some people would if they're longer-time fans than I am.

Man, You have completely changed the way I see this game.

6:25 i'll never forget when me and my dad got sora up on the roof and saw sabot jump out of the treehouse into the trees, just falling 😭

5:41 he never bursted to the floor in my game. I have never seen that hole. I never knew that actually. The rare heartless that spawns in that room also doesnt apear below as I saw on youtube videos, but in the house instead.

In Halloween Town (if you’ve cleared the trinity list and sealed the keyhole), the Red Trinity can still appear on the stone arch wall at the Manor Ruins. If it doesn’t show, then there’s a Chimaera spawn. Little hack for those trying to quick farm synth items

I definitely knew about the treehouse holes because I honestly got lost on that map so many times in the early bits and that thing kept attacking me. The holes were cool to see but kinda annoying when you're fighting heartless and drop out of one lol. I only got one hole on the floor tho. No idea how someone gets a second one.

The Neverland no shadow one took me by surprise tho! They sweated out the details for sure.

Don't forget Ventus was in Sora's heart too and he's been in Hollow Bastion too. So it was also a foreshadow both Kairi and Ventus have been there.

I have been playing KH snice it came out nearly 20 years ago, and I (until this very video) always thought the mushroom asking for thunder was facing heat exhaustion from his own personal sun and was asking for a blizzard spell. Now I know why that never worked. xD

Never thought about the living shadow tying into Peter Pan.

You, my friend, are vocalizing everything I love about KH1. Compared to the other games, it has a TON of depth and details that just make it way more alive and mysterious than the others -- not in combat or the primary story, but the worlds themselves. Think about it; you don't see that kind of detail and coding outside of KH1. The only exception to this is maaaybe BBS. Not out to bash any of the other games, just miss what KH1 one had to offer despite its age.

I'm not sure if you already include this or anybody knows about this, so this one little detail I noticed during my playthrough is that the keyblades' keychain will chime differently depending on what keyblade you use at the time when you run or walk

I always thought the picture in deep jungle was that of Beast's Castle, escpecially because Radiant Garden's Castle looks different.

Thats crazy cool

Have you done one of these videos for II? Not sure if there'd be many for COM.

The picture of the castle in deep jungle is actually a sort of stretched pic of a castle from sleeping beauty, this pic of the fallen world must have came with someone as they lost theirs but escaped like sora somehow

WHOA I didn't realize Oathkeeper and Oblivion had kanji in their design.

That Sabor fight with him breaking the floor, I want to say I got that once. Which hole, no idea.

You should do a vid on how to get the other keyblade, shields, and wands that you dont get if you are just doing the story Oh and the trinity's, chest, and puppies to

I don't know if this is a known detail or been commented already but in KH1 the color of the paused menu background actually changes depending on whatever color is sampled from the center of the screen. :P ... I notice very niche things when I game.
