It's Time For The Kingdom Hearts REMAKE! 

358/2 days remake would so good

Who wants to tell him that Tarzan is public domain now? Been public domain since 2020.

Nah, 358/2 needs the remake treatment a lot more. KH1 already got the Final Mix

"I recommended KH1 to start the series, but because of how it aged, it left a poor impression." "So let's make KH1R a meta commentary on the series" Mate, this doesn't solve the issue at all.

What's funny to me is that if they did end up making a kh 1 remake, we know that Nomura would absolutely make it tie into the story in some way. There's almost no reason to and he wouldn't have to but he would.

If they did remakes instead of all of these ports... then It'd be a little more justifiable to buy kingdom hearts again. At this point, Kingdom Hearts is up there with Skyrim with it's re-releases

Kh1 doesn't need a remake

No remake. KH4 needs to be next

we *NEED* a remake of 358/2 Days! Main character being Roxas ✅ Playing as all Organization 13 members ✅ Arguably the best self-contained story in the franchise ✅ Multiplier co-op on missions ✅ The limits for each character you play as ✅ Duel-wield Roxas ✅

we are still YEARS out from this. it still feels way to early

Absolutely not for 2 reasons. They would just port the physics from KH3 to 1 when the whole narrative point of Sora is how his air game gets higher each game and Nomura would just re contextualize the story

I think you’re missing the forest for the trees. The only parts of KH1 that might’ve aged poorly is probably just navigation since the later games were more straightforward with its level design. If difficulty is a barrier then new players can just play the game on easy and if figuring out where to go is getting annoying then consider consulting a walkthrough if they get lost. I agree that there might be some quirks that old PS2-era games have that wouldn’t get a pass today but acting as if it makes the first KH game impenetrable to a new player might be a bit of an exaggeration.

Bro says "kh1 is rudimentary" while showing the stupid pirate boat summon from 3.... if that's what being not rudimentary gets you, then by all means, please keep the games rudimentary.

They technically remade the first game when they released 1.5 on PS3 since Square Enix lost the original source code from Squaresoft.

KH1 really does not need it, at least not graphically. The only things that need improvement is the movement and camera, but even that is just part of the era. People can learn to deal with it. Is it frustrating? Yes. But that is also a good life lesson. Not everything is easy or will cater to what you want. Some times you just have to put more effort in.

Square can never capture the magic of KH1. It does not have the talented people that made KH1 so great. KH1 is a masterpiece.

I respect your opinion but I don’t think it needs one. It’s time to move on. We are at a new saga, let’s get it

Bruh we don’t need a kingdom hearts remake period idk why some people want a kh1 remake , we have all these ports that include the kh games just play kh1 through those , ff7 was a different matter ff7 came out on the ps1 and the graphics looked blockie as for most ps1 games were but kh 1 and 2 looked good for PS2 titles and still do chain of memories got remade for ps2 yea but that’s most likely because they wanted to add dialogue not just text blocks and make it 3d , but as I say we don’t need a kh1 remake or kh2 leave those games alone

Kh1 doesnt need a remake before 385/2 days or recoded

Naaaaahhhhhhhhh let's just keep moving forward and stick to new titles. I respect your point of view, but It's probably best to keep KH1 and the rest as they are, with an exception of the Union Cross title.

I think KH1 is pretty well aged i actually enjoy it more than KH2 the first one doesn't need a remake

Why does everything have to be a remake with you people? All you want to do is be fed the same games over and over and over again by devs who want to exploit your nostalgia!

A Kingdom Hearts 1 Remake should include Chain Of Memories as an epilogue in my opinion. I'd really love to see this

The main thing which I'm not sure about is how the changes in gameplay also show the growth of sora.

These are good ideas but idk im so nostalgic about KH1. Even though its kinda clunkly and its easy to get lost in some of the worlds, I can't say that I find myself hating any aspect of it (except the gummiship missions those are terrible ngl). I do agree the camera is hard to work with sometimes and the platforming is difficult to use but I find those quirks charming. KH1 is by far one of my favorite games to play out of the whole series. I always have so much fun playing through it. I don't really think it needs to be changed. I like it the way it is flaws and all.

i think remaking Kingdom Hearts 1 at all, would take away a lot that i already love and like about kingdom hearts 1. I agree that the idea of a FFVII style remake for KH1 would be interesting but just focus that creative direction into just a VERUM REX game instead of a kingdom hearts game. As everyone else said, just focus this creativity onto new entries, instead of remaking KH1. The market is already oversaturated with remakes of old games. Of course there are good remakes that keep the original vision and intentional game design intact but there is equal chance for a remake to take away those original aspects of the game that made it appealing and unique compared to other releases in that time, and make it more uniform. Less special. Persona 3 Reload has this issue and I don't want that to happen with Kingdom Hearts 1. Kingdom Hearts Final Mix is fine as is. Remember that not every game is for everybody. If that friend of yours simply didn't like Kingdom Hearts, that is them. This want to make every game super accessible, and uniform is dragging down modern day game design. Besides, just watch the cutscenes online if you want to experience Kingdom Hearts really badly. That is already what a large portion of Kingdom Hearts fans do. Because before the remastered collection releases were separated onto separate consoles. If there needs to be a remake, remake Union X and in the case of Union X I think that would work really well as a MMO in the manner of Final Fantasy XIV.

I can see 2 reasons as to why they should remake kh1 Kh1 was the only game to include a heavy focus on platforming other than the rpg systems, beside kh2's cavern of remembrance, so remaking it could give them ideas to better implement platforming in future entries, it also gave a good focus on exploration and going back to older areas with new abilities, such as the trinities, getting that system back or something of the sort would give world exploration some much needed deapth, like unlocking an ability in a future world that could be used in one of the first worlds to unlock a new area with a unique accessory or miniboss, also kh1 was the only kingdom hearts game, as far as I remember that gave you keyblades outside of world completion, major story events or defeating some kind of boss, like the pinochio keyblade that you only get if you talk to gepetto in traverse town, getting keyblades as a reward for exploration or sidequests would be pretty good Number 2 is that Kh1 is a bit clunky sometimes, it holds up very well even in 2024, but some gameplay systems could be ironed out to give a more fluid experience, for example the gummy ship missions by making it mostly optional like kh3 or making it a genuinely interesting mini game like kh2

Maybe for games like 358/2 Days and Re: Coded, but leave the others alone.

absolutely not, leave it alone it is perfect the way it is with its ps2 graphics

Nah, I'll stop you right there, we don't need remakes, the games already get rereleased every couple of years, and they both look and play great. Not to mention the amount of side games that reuse assets and retread the story. Better to just focus on making KH4 and other new games (maybe even more DLC for KH3 if we're so desperate for new content).

Quick question- if Tarzan is copyrighted, how was 1.5 made for the ps4?

I’d rather they focus on creating new games first😂

Wow i like the idea!

if they remade KH1 they would also take that stylistic charm out of it somehow.

Nope on the voice acting replacement part. plus it will ruin Haley joe voice and Haley joe legacy of him as sora

honestly the anecdote with your friend sounds like a skill issue lmao

Absolutely not. KH1 is an amazing game. Slow and steady, perfectly so. If anything: 358/2, Re:Coded, BBS, and DDD need remakes with entire overhauls to their respective systems to make them either akin to KH2/KH3 or redo the deck system and enemy system to allow for hitstun to enemies or to make everything in line with Thunder Surge in terms of power.

idk if i can see square remaking a remix game. it'd mean releasing it seperate from all the bundles and i think theyd see it as a bad plan to have 2 versions lying around. ff7 feels different because its been fundamentally changed so much. kh1 doesnt have as much leg room without changin story beats or lore

No it’s not…chain of memories and the other things only needed a “remaster” or “remake” if you wanna call it cuz people only really played the MAIN VERSION of the franchise the others were not that important to people so they brought them to the main so people can enjoy the stories they never knew. KH1 doesn’t need nothing done to it but what they been doing.

No it's not. It still looks good, and a remake would likely remove a lot of the charm. They should put their resources elsewhere. Also don't want plot ghosts invading Kingdom Hearts also.

No please that's ok

No they don’t, remakes are saturating the video game market. Fk remakes, make new stuff and continue your IP’s instead of going backwards. Smh..

The biggest reason I think a modern remake wouldn't work is the insane attention-to-detail the current KH1 has in it, with world design interactions and little secrets. A remake may improve the overall gameplay and quality-of-life features, but may risk losing the charm of the hidden details everyone continues to praise KH1 for, and hearken back to when realizing no follow-up game in the series has truly come close to it since (0.2 & 3 being the only ones that flirt with the concept). There's SO many techniques I feel wouldn't be given the attention of remaking 1-to-1 and instead be overlooked for streamlining. As much as I love 0.2 and KH3's push to start including this type of design again, it's still lacking, and KH3's version (since it's the full-length game) of "attention-to-detail" really wouldn't do classic KH1 justice if just tranlated to a modern KH1 remake. To this day, we're STILL discovering new things in KH1 that weren't widely known back then. A lot of that comes from not just the game development style of PS2 days, but also the lightning-in-a-bottle team and the initial setting back then of making a risky new IP with no expectations, no stress on appeasing to/streamlining for certain audiences, and all passion in game-making. This one sort of needs to be preserved, recognized, and lowkey studied as a testament to genuinely clever and great game design that has stood the test of time and clunkiness. Other current IP games, developers, players, and even future games in the KH series can still learn so much from how KH1 currently is. I hope KH4 and forward can really bring those elements back in full force. Then maybe, once the current team has gotten that understanding, they can really discuss making a worthwhile remake. Or at the very least, know how to direct the separate team that would have to take the mantle, while the main team keeps making new games at the same time.

I wouldn’t be surprised if a Kingdom Hearts Remake releases. I would imagine that it would be called something like “Kingdom Hearts Final Remix”. I imagine it would be step one of a plan to remake the core trilogy starting with KH1 Final Remix and then eventually doing KH2 Final Remix and KH3 Final Remix with a possibility of doing more like Dream Drop Distance, Birth By Sleep, and others. Knowing Square they would probably make it exclusive to a certain console, and my guess would actually be the Switch 2! It’s been rumored that Square wants to release KH4 on all major consoles including thinking about releasing it on Switch 2, so how hype would it be that during a Nintendo Direct they announce a KH1 Final Remix with gameplay and then announce that they also plan to make remakes of the other 2 down the road similar to how the Dragon Quest HD-2D Remakes were shown off. It would be a great way to get a massive new audience on the Nintendo side of things and either get Nintendo players ready for KH4 or release the Final Remix’s instead of KH4!

I don't agree at all. Alot of the problems in the series are addressed by playing other games in the series. You think the story has plot holes ? The other games at least make attempts to fill stuff in. You think the gamefeel is bad ? Just play kingdom hearts 3 You want to experience the specific disney worlds for yourself? Get the remake bundle You think soras voice changed too much between kingdom hearts 1 and 2 ? Tough luck. That's such a weird nitpick Your not solving any problems and everything can be addressed by an antgology collection on new gen consoles ( kingdom hearts 2.5 and 2.8 bundled together )

Nah, KH1 has stood the test of time and will forever stand the test of time. You have to embrace the jank in order to love how well put together KH2 is. KH1 remake will bring nothing to the table, and ngl wouldn't be as fun. KH1 combat system is unique and amazing. Just get mods to fix the little janky bits of the gameplay. Hell, even KH3 combat isn't as good as KH2 combat. They had to make a whole DLC to fix most of the issues the gameplay had. KH2 English (aka Base KH2), yes, missing combo master and whatnot is still a better combat and better feeling game than Base KH3. So, remaking KH1 probably would have only fixed the janky camera and nothing else and bring nothing of actual value to the experience of the game. Because the camera is the only bad thing about KH1, that's it. Either way, it's an all around bad idea and should not be pushed any further imo

If anything I want KH1&2 to be reverse engineered like Zelda OT, MM, and Mario 64.

To be honest, i went back and beat KH1 just a couple days ago. And having also touched RE:CoM and BbS again.... KH1 is fine as it is. It's a little clunky, but all it really needs to be on the level of the other titles is a zoomed out camera and a mini map. I'm sure there's gotta be a mod for that eventually. Square took years to get the whole collection out to playstation and then to port it to PC. And honestly, it still looks and plays better than ps3 games do. So I'd rather them cook up how to evolve the next couple games.

Let’s not. It’s completely unnecessary since the artstyle is timeless. We need a Union X compilation for console and pc first. We need whatever resources Square has to make NEW games. We used to get games in between the tent pole releases to flesh out the lore and tide things over. We need to get back to that and I know it’s hard because game dev is WAY more involved than it used to be but we are starving for anything. By the the time KH4 comes out we will only have had a rhythm game with 20 minutes of new story and a mobile game with more quintessential lore. No actual kingdom hearts games in terms of gameplay in between.

My nostalgia says the clunky movement is part of the experience. But after going through monstro again i changed my mind, especially once i started with kh 2

I'm a bit skeptical about a remake due to gameplay reasons. Imo gameplay is king, kingdom hearts 1 has some very interesting combat mechanics when it comes to magic, damage storage etc. I remember there was tech you could pull off in the old spyro games but you can't do it in the reignited trilogy because the laws of physics are a bit different. If intricate things get lost in translation to better graphics, personally I would rather development costs be put into making games that will progress the story instead of remaking. With final fantasy games in general what I just said Is meaningless because they are for the bigger part turn based games to some extent.

If I recall dream drop distance was originally supposed to be a KH1 remake during early development so it isn't like they haven't attempted remaking the classics beforehand. Also side tangent but can someone please explain to me why anyone wants 358/2 days and recoded to get remakes? Recoded is already remake so I think it'd just be redundant to remake a remake. And Days while having arguably the best story in the series, also has the worst gameplay out of all the franchise.

Before a remake of the original, I would first prefer proper remakes of 358/2 days, Coded and X.

Your opinion, and I respect it, but... I don't think there is any reason to remake a masterpiece. Kh1 was and is extremely well received even from people who didn't continue the serie, or tried to and weren't crazy about it. Kh1 had platform, Tech points, intelligent and dynamic magics, it was hardcore hard, had alternative cutscenes based on the order you made things, immense content, exp-grinding coloseum and overall an unbeatable charm. Its "problems" aren't even problems, it's how the game worked with his pros and cons, like any other title, but it did and still does its job amazingly, in an unique way and is not even near in need of a remake, cause I think it actually hold up great. I made so many people play KH as my favourite serie of all time and I never, not even once, saw someone avoid to succumb to KH1 charm, consistently considering it their favourite in different cases, telling how "it having its own unique magic feeling about it". Could it have a better camera? Yes. I would not touch anything else.

A Kingdom Hearts remake isn't happening. I get that we're kind of starved for content but this is just straight up clickbait bullshit.

KH1 doesn't need a remake

"yeah just remove the entire world..." no wonder why companies play us dumb. they got dumb youtubers giving dumb ideas that the gamers don't want. unsubbed

I don’t want a remake and I don’t think we need one.

Absolutely not! There's nothing wrong with kh1 and final mix

Give me this remake now

No it aint lil bro💀💀💀

If there is still the "You stupid" line from Sora I see no reason to be against this idea

I don’t think it does.

I had this exact theory... except movies and not games. I think, instead of Sora existing in a video game in the "real world," the Disney movies appear as movies. That is, Yozora has seen Sleeping Beauty, Frozen, Moana, etc. -- but perhaps the versions of them with Sora interfering! And this will also be how Sora returns to Disney worlds, by using the keyblade on a TV or something while the movie plays lol

You really don’t have to convince square to do this

Eh I couldn’t disagree more with a lot of this. Yea it’s an old game with its quirks but that’s a part of its charm. Especially working your way through the entire series it’s nice to see where we started and where we got to. By no means do I think it aged poorly especially compared to other games of same console generation. Like others I’d rather the time/resources be put towards a remake of 358/2 and union X. Or maybe even actually just moving the franchise forward. On top of all that if they went the ff7 route(which I’m kinda disliking after part 2) I feel like it’d just add even more unnecessary confusion to the franchise that we just don’t need. It’s already difficult for some individuals to get into b/c of that singular aspect.

I'd be onboard with this if they rewrote the 3rd game

Sure just keep the Art Style the same just make the textures very high resolution and more polygon count and better Animation Detail. I really don't like the Kingdom Shader for the older Disney movies. its great for CGI Disney movies but not the hand drawn 2D ones.

KH1 doesn’t need a remake, 358/2 days does.

better drop rates for the synthesis so you don't have this grind(ish) feeling for acquiring ultima

Recoded tho bro, it’s wicked sick

We need kingdom hearts 4 not a remake for a game that is fine as it is Don't give Nomura strange ideas please 😅

Im hoping that we get another release somewhat like 2.8 was, just drop a bundled package of 1 remade and have 358 in a modern platform with little re work. Drop union cross as a 3d viewable movie and theyre cooking. Be something to hold the fanbase over until 4 is ready.

Bro....that is SUCH A GOOD IDEA! I want a remake even more now! Lol

Would be awful to remake them after so many rereleases and they ALL hold up. Theres already reason to buy the game 3+times.

naw we dont

Quite frankly, KH as a series is a hard sell for remakes since so many old worlds get "remade" between installments. Can't exactly market it as a "return to your favorite nostalgic disney worlds" when the series has you do that every other game anyways. Can't exactly entice people with "reliving the epic story" when not only have the games been re-released to death, but they also re-tread the same story beats of KH1 in multiple games, via either recaps or just blatantly repeating old scenes. I for one am so permanently burned out on the likes of Agrabah, Olympus and Wonderland that if they market any future game with these worlds it's legit gonna be a reason to *not* play. And since it was mentioned, I gotta say I wouldn't be a fan of having 36-year-old Osment play KH1 Sora. His DDD voice already sounded somewhat forced and he was 12 years younger in that. The progression from KH1 Sora to KH2 Sora was very well represented by the change in the actor's voice, and helps sell the illusion of an ongoing story with characters that change and grow. It's always a sort of lightning-in-a-bottle scenario when you can have the growth of actors reflect the growth of characters and it makes a story that much stronger.

I think we could do both where the KH1 Remake is the game inside Verum Rex's world but at the same time work as not a reboot but an updated insert into the universe where instead of the original you play this, unlike with FF7 Remake where it worked as a sort of sequel/alternate timeline, this would simply be an alternative way to start the series. I also think they should use the same/similar art style to KH1 2 or 3 and not go fully into the HD style they got for KH4 just cause it feel weird playing KH1 if it was an art style like KH4 trailer then in KH2 it was that old style design but that's just me.

Honestly, I'd rather have a KH3 remake - no no, hear me out!! A thing that bothered me a lot in the game, was the way the Disney worlds were handled in comparison to KH1 - in KH1, they rewrote the stories to fit the game. In KH3, Sora and the team were pretty much just inserted into the background of the original Disney movies with no rewriting of the story. It made me feel like I was just paying to be on a Disney ride, and I hated it. House of Mouse needs to be less tight-fisted with the control of their IP's in this series.

I would also add that this would make Square Enix more money by the fact that instead of customers having to wait for new entries to the series that you can tide them over with remakes of the old games while still working on the newer entries. I would also add a Dark Road Remake too as I would love to play as Young Xehanort in full 3D HD and not have to pay for services.

Damn, I didn't think watching this would make me so hyped for a game that is only theoretical, lol. If KH1 Remake ever does see the light of day, I really hope they introduce the concepts that you bring up! Great video, man!

Well if does happen they have to retconned the first game,and make it connect the 4th one.The chain of memories remake ending was different it showed the organization 13 instead of you seeing older Sora sleeping.

With how many times KH1 has gotten a retread, we don’t need to waste time on a remake

I miss your playthroughs

I would love it if they went all out with a reboot, change wonderland to toybox, make wonderland the hub world in 3D, add treasure planet and make it a gummi ship mission, maybe play with the idea of Moana traveling worlds like Sora, originating from a neighboring world, go wild! But keep the main story and dont make it a sequel!!!

I mean, as someone who has been playing these games since 2004: I personally don't need a KH1 remake. Going from the PS2 original to current versions of Final Mix brought enough upgrades to me for me to be mostly satisfied with what we have now. Hell, I don't even need the Steam versions of most of the games since the PS4 versions on a PS4 Pro seem to be maintaining 60 frames at 4K more often than not. But, since I'm one of those people who needs to see things in order to believe them, Square might as well go for it at some point. Maybe it'll hit me like the Final Fantasy VII remake trilogy and Crisis Core where I'm on pins and needles waiting for the games to be on Steam, or I can either put it on the back burner or sometimes forget it's existence. Though with all that said, I'm in the 358/2 Days needing a remake camp. I don't want to over-hype 358 for those who haven't played it, but watching the movie doesn't do the game the same amount of justice, especially for a game that's focused around Roxas and Organization XIII. That to me would be a more significant uplift, from Nintendo DS and Unreal 5, compared to KH1 only being kind of janky at times but still very playable.

I dont need it.....I don't need it....I don't need it...........I NEED IT!, I need a remake of kh 1 and kh 2 with kh 3 graphics and improved gameplay since kh1 for instance is not good gameplay wise compared to the other games and yes REMAKE 358 and RECODED!!!!!, 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I don't know how to feel about a remake of kh1 b/c it has it's pros and cons, pros being that more people will get into my and it'll make it maybe more accessible cons being that you'll be expected to know the story like the remake of ff7, and to be honest I'm not a big fan of the theory that kingdom hearts is a video game in yozora's world b/c I feel like for me that it kind of breaks the immersion, I don't know tho, I would like the game(s) to be more accessible though

I really hope they don't remake the games that are already made cause they still hold up, and like everyone else been saying Re:coded, union-X would make more sense, AND FOR FUCKS SAKE CoM A FUCKIN GBA GAME GOT PORTED 3 DIFFERENT TIMES, WITH IT BEING RELEASED ON THE GBA FIRST THEN GOT RELEASED ON THE PS2 THEN THE HD COLLECTIONS, JUSTICE FOR 358/2 DAYS DEAD ASS DUDE SQUARE ENIX QUIT IGNORING 358/2 DAYS ROXAS DID NOT DIE FOR THIS😭😭😭

I think they could remake it as a sequel. Have Namine' use her abilities to try to connect with Sora through Kairi because for most of the KH1 game, Kairi was in Sora's heart. She witnessed most of it. So it would make sense to do a remake while retelling/progressing the story to be ready for KH4. Plus they could fix the camera and the ledge grabbing after getting hit. I disliked those most.

I remember playing KH1 when I was 7 or 8 years old. I had a hard time in destiny island figureing out where to go and how to beat riku. After getting through the first circle(traverse, hurcules, alice, tarazan), I knew I had to go back to traverse town but I had no idea where I needed to be in tbat world. I gave up and didn't touch KH as a whole until I was 16 with KH2. Beat that and went back to KH1 then I tried to play or atleast watch all the cutscenes for the games since the series was scattered. My point in saying all this is if I hadn't played KH2, I don't think I'd be fan with 1 having a bad taste in my mouth for all those years. If KH1 ever gets a remake(I feel its unlikely), then it should basically be KH2 in HD without the drive forms. Fast, reaction comands, A MAP! Fixing the camera. All these little QOL things along with gameplay changes would help it go a long way for new commers. I only played KH1 3 times and KH2 over 10 times. That gives you an idea of how clunky KH1 is.

I don't know about a full fledge remake but I would love a definitive edition of both Kingdom Hearts 1 & 2 with Kingdom Hearts 3 graphics. Imagine the Port Royal world from Kingdom Hearts 2 but it's presented like The Caribbean from KH3 with the characters looking even more realistic. They could even make Sora, Donald and Goofy look realistic to actually fit the world setting better like they did in KH3. It looked odd back then when you visited Port Royal and they had Jack, Will and others look realistic but Sora Donald and Goofy still had their cell shaded graphics look in that world.

The things I would like them to do if they remade KH1 is: Add the Lava titan and Tornado titan to the coliseum. Add Bahamut as a summon. In order to get him you have to... 1. Reach the last save point before Ansem. 2. Beat all the coliseum and Secret bosses. 3. Complete all synthesis recipes. 4. Complete Jiminy's journal. Then fight him as a secret boss where you fight Chernobog at the End of the World. Make the party like KH3 where everyone is out and not just 3 at a time, this would require rebalancing the game in certain worlds but not by much since it is KH1. Boss refights like in Mario RPG that are harder than the original. Maybe even make a training boss in Merlin's room to have Sora test his magic, like a mini Phantom or something. It may be wishful thinking that KH1 would get remade but hey most thought Sora would never get in Smash because of Disney and yet he did so as far as I can tell that was like almost zero chance of happening so a remake of KH1 should be higher than that... right?

As much as some people try to refute it, while a great game, KH1 has some very serious issues. It's slow, it's clunky, and the platforming is terrible until you unlock the high jump, but you're 80% done with the game by then anyway. I definitely don't mind it being a 3D platformer, but it _really_ could've done better. My favorite excuse for all of this is "it's a skill issue! You're just mad because the game doesn't hold your hand!" These people fail to realize that that's _not_ the problem people have. The game just feels _really_ bad. If it weren't a Kingdom Hearts crossover, it would've been forgotten like Final Fantasy Type-0 and The After Years.

Started back then when CoM for GBA had a TV commercial and my friend and I had absolutely no background knowledge about the game whatsoever. Played 2 a couple of years later and then decided to use the powerful internet to get my hands on the first part. God was it awful. I hate pretty much anything about this game and truth be told: Had I started with the first game I surely would've quitted it and never touched KH ever again. Glad I didn't start with this. Jumping felt even worse than N64 Mariogames, combat was pretty much hitting X til death, most worlds felt like a chore and the camera was the worst of em all. Whenever I tried to get my friends into KH I highly recommend not starting with 1 (not only its bad but makes absolutely zero sense lorewise). I am not quite sure If I would buy and play a whole remake.

i don't think the voice being uniform is a good thing, cause sora is a child on 1, but he grew up on two, so the voice change in his voice makes sense to the series. (not so much in CoM.. but whatever). Also, is not tarzan public domain? i'm almost sure it is. So there is not preventing from using his world again no? Finally, while I, as a fan don't think KH1 need a remake, i can undestand the point where the game needs a remake to bring new audience. People nowdays, hell even a friend who PLAYED and like kh1 refuses to play it again to remember the story but he would play with a remake, on another side i get sad when feel like people don't gonna play the original, is so good. For fans, a.k.a people watching this video, majority gonna say they don't want a kh1 remake and want a 358/2 days remake.

What I'd like to see in a KH1 remake is them making it pretty faithfully and keeping future games foreshadowing/references to a minimum. If it's in the form of an additional additional gameplay content (i.e: Roxas secret boss or something similar) then I'd be cool with it, but if they alter cutscenes to retroactively fit better with future games too much then it'd be a bit hard to swallow for me. Basically, id want them to only add new stuff if it's silly optional side stuff. Please don't change the core story too much. Part of what makes KH1 so unique is that it's sorta its own beast, I don't wanna see time travelling Master Xehanort pop up randomly or a Union leader or some shiz Edit: oh yeah and PLEASE fix the camera.

I would not miss Deep Jungle for a SECOND, you slap ANYTHING else in there and I’m good. 10-year old me got so freaking lost in there I still wake up with cold sweats about it 🤣. Although my friend never realized he could switch Keyblades manually so he accident went all the way through the Ursula fight with the Jungle King because it was the only one that auto-switched for him..😅 so he’d lose a key part of his play through 😝

Obvious stuff like fixing the camera issues and giving the players more direction. If the thing about the Tarzan world is true yeah it could be replaced, but I am not sure if it is the owner not agreeing or Square just not wanting to pay them for less profitable titles. A remake of the og Kingdom Hearts might being in enough money that it would be work paying the owner of Tarzan. I'd like to see more cutscenes and characters talking in the background. But the main thing I'd like is if parts of the story were told from Riku and Kairi's point of view. For Riku it could be him going to the different worlds to capture the Princesses of Hearts\Seven Lights. Since he does not yet control the Heartless he could still fight them. Maybe drop a few hints of the Organization (what were they doing during the first game)? And explain where that sword that Riku got that eventually transforms into his keyblade came from. Since Kairi was asleep during the first game I could see her being in the Realm of Dreams and maybe have her encounter Ventus and the Dream Eaters. Just toss in a bit at the end to explain that they lose their memories when they wake up to avoid creating any plot holes. Maybe establish that the Keyblade Riku gives Kairi in KH2 was originally from the Realm of Dreams. And if on a modern system I could see remakes of Coded, Days, and Birth By Sleep being released as DLC for the game using the same graphics of the original. They could also toss in some more optional boss fights.
