Kingdom Hearts 3 - follow your heart. Review

To sum up a long history to an end - not an easy task. It is necessary not to lose face, correctly explain, but still not break made in previous games. Kingdom Hearts saga crept up to the climax of a huge story arc, but I get a third of the final to become chic?

Kingdom Hearts Series in nearly two decades, from just fun ideas about the union of Nomura Tetsuji worlds Square-while-still-soft and "Disney" has grown to tremendous crossover of a considerable number of breathtaking games, intertwining story about friendship, mutual assistance and the eternal confrontation between Light and Darkness. KH so long was the third part, that at some point it seemed, if she never will. Or worse - it will give to the bawdy hand of people, killed Final Fantasy (rays of goodness you, Toriyama and Tabata). Luckily, everything worked out. Trikvel was no less unusual and bright, than its predecessors, and at the same time I have finally gathered all the characters under one roof.

Without light, there would be darkness

Pretty hard to explain the appeal of an inexperienced player Kingdom Hearts. It would seem that, insane mix of various Disney, heroes "finalok" and devised specifically for the characters in the series will not work even at the concept stage. Donald mage, Goofy warrior and the boy Sora, saving the worlds from darkness? Hahaha, you are there that eat? However, there is exactly the same situation, like with Nintendo games. You can endlessly paint dignity, but not until proniknesh, not until you try.

It is thanks to the madness of the creative and familiar characters in an entirely atypical for itself role Kingdom Hearts turned out so distinctive and original. Well, where else can you see, like Scrooge MakDak with little rat from "Ratatouille" opened his own restaurant? Or side by side with Jack Sparrow joined the battle against Barbossa and his cursed pirates? Или поможете Винни-Пуху, sing with the Little Mermaid in a Musical, ride a magic carpet ride? okay, the latter can be done in the Aladdin games, but when there is the last one left? All the above-described may sound wildly and "childish", but it works perfectly and plunges headlong into the maelstrom of exciting events.

Kingdom Hearts 3 He remained true friend since the first part of the formula. There is a global story, mainly tied to the original characters like Sora, Rica and the Organization XIII, which alternates with local events in the worlds of different cartoon. These local events often remain within the animated universe, will not move the main narrative, and act as a good fanservisa. Very fun to watch, as the beat writers familiar subjects considering the characters and enemies, which should not be there.

With such a disposition fully disclosed KH, offering would like to go with familiar characters and recognizable, but still an alternative adventure, - and not just to go, and take part in it. However, in some worlds trikvele something went wrong - the team of Nomura offers, drugs, almost single-frame retelling of "Rapunzel" and "Cold Heart". it looks, of course, incredibly cool due to excellent graphics, yell as loud LET IT GO can also be. But we are talking here about the long rollers, virtually indistinguishable from cartoons, are replaced by at least a long battle, - it's not quite, what you want from Kingdom Hearts. Sora's companions in such a situation are somewhere on the side and did not fit into what is happening. Better to do cartoons reconsider, doing exactly the same, but with interactive inserts.

Luckily, in all other universes interact with the characters much more. That there is one trip to the toy store, along with Woody and Buzz! И ведь мы будем не только сражаться против самых разнообразных роботов и прочих причин капризов маленьких детей, but also to control plastic giants. And with some attention to detail collected location! For boxes with board and video games drawn its cover, Now there stands a brand new console, and in the corner is a large stand of Dissidia Final Fantasy. beauty.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" in general caught a strong tailwind - in this world, we are invited to explore the small archipelago on their own ship. В Kingdom Hearts 2, According to the map, developers have already planned something similar, but then, apparently, It lacked the capacity or time. Now it looks like a separate game within the game, which is not inferior to the elaboration of a full project, entirely built on a walk on the seas. And no one makes be filibusters - a huge piece of content you can skip, went on the plot. However, this is not worth at least due to the fact, that the islands hidden useful items. Not even speaking about, Jack Sparrow - sorry, Captain Jack Sparrow! - as always good, though not voice says Depp.

In each world there are some unique feature of its own, that allows the game to constantly offer something new, remain fresh and surprising every time. true, by personal feelings, в Kingdom Hearts 3 "Disney" has become too much, even reduce the number of worlds. If before the whole circus colorful crushed into several small pieces, He was interrupted by the global story, and at least some interaction with the characters "finalok", in trikvele by Final Fantasy is nothing left, and the main story in the first half of the game creeps too slowly. they, who love the series for the opportunity to visit the familiar cartoons, will be very happy to stay longer in each of them. In turn, those, who prefer it original story KH, it may seem, what, while Sora runs to and fro, all interesting happening somewhere in the background.

After Mickey and Riku fighting in the dark world in an attempt to regain the lost Akvu, also mocked from time to time report on their progress by phone! Ah to, If you are not familiar with these names, then fully understand what is happening in trikvele will be very difficult. It begins after the events of Dream Drop Distance and the prologue of Birth by Sleep 0.2 -fragmented passage-, which brought the story to the finish line. Seven warriors of Light must face the thirteen parts of Darkness, that will eventually lead to the degeneration of the world through its destruction. And master Zeanort driven characters in a desperate situation - in any case they have to engage in battle.

suspect, at this point unenlightened head begins to swell. At all, I have often come across the opinion, that the plot of Kingdom Hearts is very confused, but I can not agree with it. Mostly, of course, perverted, but, First of all, It is interesting to delve into, but, Secondly, if consistently through all parts, Noting the important points, the gaping holes and no more questions remain. He intelligently links all event. Considering, что все игры серии объединены общей историей, which broadened and deepened for many years, not surprising, that the final part of several plot branches converged to a single point. it, Alas, reserves are not familiar with them, the people behind and does not allow them to fully enjoy all, that offers a Kingdom Hearts 3.

Stories Erakusa masters and masters Zeanorta. Aqua, Terry and Ventus. accelerator (okay, whether), Roxas, Shion and Namine. Finally, distressful, Riku and Kairi - the main characters, with which once began Kingdom Hearts. Trikvel brings all these lines quietly, without too much drama and deliberately attempts to squeeze out tears. In many moments like as dots, but in some places still reserves for the future. And the final, which lasted for a few hours of powerful battles with a variety of bosses, It became one of the most memorable moments of the series. true, they, who for so many years waiting for extraterrestrial epic, next markups in the story and some incredible revelations, may be left disappointed - the next chapter ends quietly to their scale, but it is currently in the spirit of the series.

Simply, but tasteful

As part of the battle, movement and other activities gameplay Kingdom Hearts 3 get the most convenient and polished from all parts. for example, finally hops from world to world no longer look like a disgusting mini-game and become pleasant! With boevka even steeper - from release to release, she has not changed dramatically, and overgrown with a variety of innovations and changes, that were supposed to make the fight as much as possible interesting and dynamic. Here, the mechanics have reached peak form.

Now Sora can carry just three kibleyda (keyblade), switching between them in the middle of combinations. Moreover, each of the blades has a unique shape, in which they can transform, causing enormous damage to everyone in the neighborhood. At all, a variety of attacks on the region especially given a lot of attention - the number of opponents on the locations has increased significantly, so messing with each individually have to be long.

Especially cool looks, when the first giant yo-yo to scatter all, who are not fortunate enough to get into attack range, then throw off their heads at Goofy, and then another and cause some attraction, to get rid of the survivors. true, the latter have questions. Any adaptation of the theme parks as well break the balance, because it does not only hurt the beat, but also make the character almost invincible during the reception. Too easily.

Especially on the background of the, that is, and so is the easy part series. Previously, a few opponents could easily make careless hero for a few strokes, especially if it is sandwiched in a corner. Now, to death on the complexity of the standard need to try very, very, even when dealing with bosses. Chopped them a lot of fun, the vast majority made remarkable, but not much of a threat they are. Is that in a couple of final bouts may have problems, and those solved banal storage of healing potions.

Kingdom Hearts 3, as well as any part of the global final story arc, probably not suit everyone. After all, KH that happening before, conclusion may seem too simple, without the usual winding and vociferous revelations. I spent the last month for the next passage of the entire series, and, in my opinion, trikvel well all brought. not spectacular, not brilliant, but good. He offered a colorful new worlds, polished game mechanics to perfection, finally united all the heroes. It is unlikely that the franchise will be the end, but another interesting chapter from the lives of the characters the game was very, very entertaining.

Not, impossible to resist ...

dignity:

• polished and enhanced combat system;
• worlds became less, but they worked much better;
