I Tried to Beat Kingdom Hearts with ONLY the Wooden Sword 

Sora did quite a considerable amount of mental trickery and mockery to Riku who was unfortunate enough to fall victim to Soras clever little trap of social teasing.

DUAL WIELDING

@@callmezeldaonemoartime Valor Form in KH1?

I love this comment 😂

When you crit, the enemy gets a splinter.

Aero: MY CHIP DAMAGE IS BETTERRR

Lmaooo

I just realized that the wooden keyblade wishing star actually is capable of fighting and doing critical damage but a wooden sword (it's a sword made out of wood) doesn't do damage at all ...

BOTW moment 😂

The increased strength...might have helped? Imagine doing even *less* chip damage, if it's possible. Or if the crits were even lower...

@@shiftfire4511 Magic damage in KH1 is based (exponentially if I recall) off the total MP Sora has, so that +1 MP would absolutely do more in the long run than a +1 or whatever in strength the sword gives him. Plus, you can use Strength Up's in the game to buff sora to the max possible strength stat even without the sword, but there exists no such item for MP. If you don't choose the staff, Sora will never reach his maximum possible MP value.

@@shiftfire4511 Looks like someone here doesn’t know how broken magic is in this game

​@Richi huh, so that's why my Magic has always felt so shitty in this game, since I dont pick the staff. Glad they fixed that moving forward, magic feels useful pass 1.

Imagine that in kh2 they do basically no damage at all that game lol

But, due to the story, the wooden sword shouldn't be able to hurt/destroy them. Yet, he is able to do so, means, with the little trick to be able having the wood sword, he tricks the system to believe it's a key blade !!

Link: First time?

@@Preceyese-SeyeghtWell yes, but Donald and Goofy can still do damage without keyblades. And as they say: if it can bleed, it can die.

@@mid-boss6461 Yeah, but maybe Donald and Goofy are able to hurt and destroy them cause of the Keyblade. Maybe they are connected with Sora while traveling together. So maybe the Keyblades effect works for their weapons too when they are close to him or travel together as a team. Or maybe they use special weapons who work like the Keyblade, without being a Keyblade. But the wooden sword, shouldnt work at all, but the system thinks it is the Keyblade, if you cheat it into the game, later on.

​@preceyeseseyeght5888 the wooden sword doesn't do damage because, hear me out, it's a shitty blunt wooden sword.

i hate how absent parries are in every other game

Perry mechanic? PERRY THE PLATYPUS MECHANIC?

Kh1 combat was shockingly deep if you dove deep. I prefer it completely over the floatier feeling of later games. Boy got some weight to him.

@@LainWithSweetTea i wouldn't say its super deep, but still very rewarding

@@dmas7749 Idk man proud mode forces you to mix up your approach and discover some tech. And there's a shocking amount of it if you are looking. Speaking as an action game fan there's a lot game doesn't tell you that you can discover being creative with your combat.

Oh. Someone did it with Roxas only. Just search Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix with Roxas. They didn't use the Bat sadly.

ong

Nah. The keyblade jumps to sora regardless. Kh1 didn't have ventus in the plan so it was worthiness still

The problem with this is that it is functionally the same as lvl 1 due to KH2 damage scaling, now turning the scaling off and then using the struggle bat would be interesting.

@@abcrasshadow9341 that sounds better, thanks for the correction/suggestion

BBS normal attack wasn’t bad, diamond form OP

Also you can drop 1st form Maleficent’s rock platform with 1 gravity

Wait till you hear about Level 1 runs

@@ezekielanderson9055 tru I’ve seen videos of people playing level 1 & I know couldn’t do it. It just seems like the original game wasn’t made for level 1 so they just came up with some stuff on the fly for the remix to give it “level 1” but it’s not balanced or anything like KH2 or 3 where playing on level 1 was in mind of the developers

Add no Sora and you got yourself a deal

Because soras magic is just that strong

It's linked in the description

To make it harder

It's not something I ever thought to check because I never usually had Scan at that juncture, but I think you're right about Destiny Islands. I don't remember ever connecting a hit on the Heartless there with the wooden sword. I'm almost positive I remember dealing a pitiful amount of damage to the Dark Balls in Hollow Bastion once you get the wooden sword there, though. Maybe they're two different versions of the wooden sword, one with collision (the one you get in Hollow Bastion after losing the Keyblade, and presumably the one he has here), and one without (the Destiny Islands wooden sword)? Edit: The Kingdom Hearts Wiki says the Wooden Sword can't affect Shadows. That doesn't preclude it from damaging other Heartless, but it's possible that's just because it's assumed you won't run into any others before getting the Kingdom Key.

@@geneericname7138 ah that's interesting, so it only avoids the baby ones

Yes, though I picked sword just to make it harder, I didn't think it would be as hard as it was lol

Fair enough! Good job with the challenge!!

and like the keyblade isnt awful i guess

People:"KH is a button masher." KH Fans: Shorten their lifespan by years playing the games with challenges.(I still hate that I got stuck at the second to last bossfight in my KH COM Level1-run)
