@@bdubsongob not really, the whole 358/2 days Idea is to introduce the organization and the nobodies group, their importance and their goal, Roxas storyline is well built and there's no reason to focus on Riku when his goal during this time is to watch Roxas from a distance and make sure he returns to Sora so Sora can be completed again, like i said before, it's better to have him as an antagonist, since his role means a lot for luring Roxas back to where he belongs... what's his objective besides that? fight off some heartless and nobodies? if you want a Riku Game better make it from stratch rather than try to ruin a already good game just because you want it

Once you've depleted Young Xehanort's health bar, he'll attempt to rewind time. Use a reality shift when prompted to stop this, or he'll regain a third of his health. The window is short at first, but you'll get more time to perform the reality shift the next time. Even if successful, it's not over yet. You'll have to attack the clock directly while clones of Young Xehanort attempt to stop you. Again, if unsuccessful, he'll regain a third of his health, but the clock will keep the damage dealt to it.

Why is Yoko such a BEAST with her numerous compositions!? I'm not complaining, I'm just amazed.

I think I finally understand the title "Dark Impetus". Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, gave Young Xehanort the motivation--the impetus--to leave his home, leading him to immerse himself in both darkness and the ways of the keyblade (and its associated lore), making him a universal threat many times over. This Dark Impetus caused the main conflict in the Kingdom Hearts series.

I've been playing the rhythm game KH: Melody of Memory and idk why I never realized how much of the soundtrack slaps so hard. There's some dull ones here and there but overall it's incredble

I really like how that violin part at 1:06 actually gets more frantic as it goes on (I think the tempo may actually go up slightly). It really sells the sense of urgency you feel during that fight.

Epic remix. The first version seemed to demonstrate how dangerous he was while his identity was unknown, and this one seems to show Riku's desperation to save Sora from him before it's too late.

Probably one of the best boss themes of all time Surprisingly not an uncommon sentiment towards this series’ boss themes in general

Can’t get over how Young Xehanort was spinning his Keyblade like a pro

I love how if you listen carefully during the violin section you can hear the opening segment of the original Dark Impetus in the background.

This theme might as well be renamed, “DODGE THIS”

What Xehanort does with time is more like a mix between BITEZ ZA DUSTO!! and timeskip as he simultaneusly exists in several continuums and chooses which one to switch to for better outcome. The downside is that different versions have no inherent knowledge of their other selves actions, so he cannot predict the future beyond knowledge of his most distant iteration.

When you fight a hidden super boss version for the first time and encounter it as the actually last boss in the next game. It really can give a fear of you-know-what's-coming and this-is-going-to-be-painful. But they turn out less painful than the hidden one in the previous game. I remember BBS version give me a sore hand from frantic button mashing dodge for hours when he duplicates himself and rapidly uses unending combined combo attacks. Luckily DDD wasn't too bad but he still tough.
