The big pile of no Final Fantasy in Kingdom Hearts...

I beat the game under 30 hours, first playthrough and collecting the Mickey insignias... for  the BS ending...
But the even bigger BS is the lack of Final Fantasy people in KH3... Nomura claims the BS excuse that their stpryline was complete and that "they weren't needed"...
Well we completed Hercules twice, yet he was in KH3...
Halloween town had 2 visits and it was conoletwd in the first one. Same thing with Agrabah, Atlantica, 100 acre wood. Hell ALL The Disney worlds were truly irrelevant to the Xehanort story if we truly think about it.

This is a load of shit... The theory that Nomura was pissed at his removal from FF vs XIII and culled FF from KH to put his NOT FF vs XIII Verum Rex game as a teaser is making more sense.

But back to the main topic... Donkey dick and Kingdom Hearts 3 sucking it so hard... 30 hours on Proud mode first run... worlds made of more filler than an anime of orange tracksuited ninja... There was an easy way to have FF in KH3 with minimal effort.
There was a cutscene on Radiant garden with some sort of guards... they could have added Squall as a guard.

On a certain cutscene at Destiny island, Tidus, Wakka and Selphie could have had a cameo. On a different cutscene at Destiny Island they could have had Tidus handong Sora a certain Key Item that ended up on the islands.... (and yes, I am talking about a Keyblade)

Even in gameplay it would have been easy to add some FF representation...
For example:
Cloud is traveling across worlds to get stronger and finally beat Sephiroth. He meets Sora a cpuple of times and they spar for the final battle and Sora gets a new Keyblade.

Hidden Boss Battle: do I even need to mention the Silver haired Momma's Boy?


Last but not least a new "Arena world" since Olympus is no longer the "combat Arena"... if only there was a world with a battle arena...
Yes, at best they could have made a Gold Saucer, which would have acted as a nod to FFVIIRemake and an excuse to see some VII folks... but... missed opportunities.

I'm still torn on whether to review KH3 or not... I mean, I already complained about the shortness, lack of worlds, filling, needing to play a buttload of side games, lacl of Final Fantasy people. Haley Joel Osment has duplicated his age since the first game... and he can see Sora. So, there isn't much to talk about KH3...
