what’s interesting is that, at the time i made the moveset, we didn’t have a reliable way to use other characters animations on sora’s skeleton without severe deformations. roxas’ animations worked well enough, but those xemnas attacks were just sora’s animations edited to look as convincing as possible. if i had the ability to use them at the time, you best believe i would’ve gone ham lmao. thanks for the feature, cynical!
As a hardcore Roxas enthusiast, I just wanna give a heads up: The Roxas by belovedsomnus was really great for the time, and of course I'm thankful for the hard work, but I think the Roxas Expanded mod looks a lot better. Mainly the face, as it doesn't have the weird look going on with the eyes. So for anyone wanting to try this, I'd recommend just using Roxas Expanded, as belovedsomnus' mod is kinda outdated at this point. There's no need to use both. Also, for anyone curious, there's another Roxas moveset on Nexus, called "Days Inspired Roxas Moveset." It's less expansive than the moveset covered in the video, but it's still pretty neat.
@@servantbyday Yeah, I know. It's just that I've seen some people pointing out Roxas' face being a little weird, so I thought I should mention that it's not an issue if you just use the Roxas Expanded mod, as I don't believe Cynical mentioned this point specifically.
Oh, a big Roxas fan huh? First of all, what kind of normal person isn’t and secondly, on the 23 we had my birthday party and two of my presents were Sora’s necklace and Roxas’ necklace. Right now I’m even wearing Roxas’
A couple things here. Firstly, you don't need to have the "Playable Roxas" mod installed to use "Roxas Expanded." Personally I would use the latter, as it has many more options than the former. Secondly, there is an alternate moveset you can use for Roxas, known on Nexus as the "Days Roxas Inspired Moveset" by Kurasa25. Some might prefer this moveset because it allows for more of Roxas' battle quotes, as the "Moveset no. 13" mod is one of many combat moveset mods that suffer from a weird bug in which the game could simply crash if any custom voice mods were running in conjunction to Moveset no. 13. For that reason, they had to remove most battle quotes from this moveset so most of it is just Roxas slashing and slinging very edgily and quietly. So if you actually wanna hear Roxas fighting then I'd recommend the "Days Roxas Inspired Moveset" mod. Another thing: Since both "Playable Roxas" and "Roxas Expanded" are mods that 'swap' Sora's model with Roxas, the Roxas model will also appear in place of Sora for all of the in-game cutscenes (not the prerendered CG ones of course). So if you want to do a full playthrough of KH3 with Roxas (like I did immediately after buying KH3 on PC), then you can totally do that. In all honesty these Roxas mods are very solid, and I'd definitely recommend using them. With the discovery of the ability to use custom skeletons in KH3 mods now (as opposed to just Sora's skeleton), we might be seeing some pretty neat stuff in the future, which might include an even more involved and immersive playable Roxas mod, as well as other special characters that no longer need to conform to the structure of Sora's skeleton. It is even possible that because of this feature, we can potentially see custom bosses in the future, opening the possibility for a remastered KH2 Roxas bossfight. Ofc that's all speculation for now but needless to say I don't think the community will be having such a bad time waiting for KH4.
It was really cool that they changed doubleflight to the reaction command to get on the tram from Kingdom Hearts 2. Using other characters' weapons mid-combo would make more sense for a Xion mod, but this is still really awesome nonetheless!
I want to see this official I think about how Sora duel wields his keyblade and Riku's during the fight with Xemnas in KH2 I would absolutely love to see an interaction like that between Roxas, Axle, and Xion maybe that won't happen but regardless I cant wait to see them in KH4 (also am i the only one who wants to see Xion with her own unique Keyblade?)
Where is the Event Horizon, Black hole, and Miracle hour!? His beams were my favorite part of his attacks. The spinning collonades of destructive light emblazoned with the Nobody sigil. I wish someone would just replace Data Xion's beams' crowns with the sigil. He had it the guardians of light fight in the sky.
Roxas had the keyblade up on his shoulder during non-combat/combat in a straightforward fashion like Sora except it's not at angle like Sora. That animation with the keyblade close to the hips was an animation the devs had planned for KH3 Sora but went unused until FF7 Remake.
The combat comment is correct, but in KH2 non combat situations had him carry the keyblade off to the side. 358/2 Days had it on his shoulder in both instances I think, though.
@@peanutmuttplays104 Makes sense I took a look at KH2 again to make sure and it all checks out. Though that animation looks alot better on Roxas than Sora in KH3 🙂
This is so cool. Also I know I’m probably about to me screamed at for this. I always liked Roxas way more then sora. And riku is my favorite character. Actually I’m just not a huge fan of sora at all😅. So I wish mode could be used on the PlayStation. I can’t afford kh3 on my Oc and I’m dumb when it comes to figuring out mods anyway. Took me HOURS to get the vanitas kh2 mod to work and I can’t get it to work since. I was so close to finishing it and then my old pc died😭. I always love seeing these vids tho
well I'm not screaming at you. Roxas has always been my favorite character. actually when I was younger and KH was first brought into my life I didn't even know who Sora was. KH2 is how I first got into the game, it was my cousins game but he would let us borrow it sometimes and I've played but never got past day3 (the first boss fight) then my first KH game I owned to myself was 358/2 Days where you play as Roxas. so I feel like I connected to Roxas when it comes to, what the fuck is going on and who the freak is Sora. (I was also a little sad when I first found out that Sora is actually the main character not Roxas, I probably found that out when I played Re:coded)
The light form finisher is mickey's "ultima" attack during the remind dlc when he fights the replica xehanorts alone. you can see it when the game intiates a "pushback" where you have to press triangle to deal with the darkness beams. It can also be seen when sora gives him power and pulls off the "enduring faith" situational command
would be cool if he could have his keyblades from 358/2 Days & if he could summon Xion toss her one of his dual wield key blades in a cutscene animation and then they just start using combination techniques
Just something quick to point out that I don't believe you mentioned. Triple Rush is also changed to an Axel Chakram ability which is really cool. For those looking for a more Axel-esque moveset, equip Triple Rush & Magic Flash. You can also unequip Flash Step for a Keyblade-Dash attack that I really like ^_^
Roxas has always been my favorite character, it would've been so cool for him and the other characters who were playable for a second to be optional character swaps
Xion,:roxas,oh your playable too Roxas:xion!!when did you get playable? Xion:your mods aren't the only cool ones roxas,my project imaginary and boss fight moves mod are pretty much cool too,also thanks to mods i can use saixs weapon xemnas light saber and axel keyblade too Roxas:really,the's so cool xion,we should have our own sequel game someday Xion:if only that would happens...if only things would stay like this forever
Is there a black coat (Organization 13) roxas mod that does not interfere with these mods? Thank you so much for putting these together! can't wait to play.
Thinking about this makes me want eitger a remake of days or a completely new game with roxas as the main focus or more people aka. Roxas xion and axel
something like Roxas's summer vacation and you finally get to go to the beach. which they do at the end of KH3 but you get to play and its not just a cutscene either that or we do get that Days re:make
This is so sick. But one thing still bugs me. I've thought this ever since Double Form was released: Oathkeeper's Double Form should've been named Daybreak Form, and Oblivion's Double Form should've been named Twilight Form. Also might as well, Light Form should've been named Daylight/Midday Form, and Dark Form should've been named Moonlight/Midnight Form.
I tried these mods but my roxas have the same keyblade in every hand, not OB and OK, I see in the video that he uses the right KB, can you help understand where I wrong?
No, we can definitely complain. Not fully at Nomura, more like the at the square executives that restricted him to making BBS, Days, and DDD on portable instead of full console budget titles and the Osaka devs who destroyed Tokyo devs original KH3 project when it was 50% complete (in 2015) and then started over and rushed floaty “KH3” out the door in a less than reasonable time frame and slapped a Re:purchase DLC on it a year later to “complete” the game 👀
Did I mention we were PROMISED “the most worlds of any Kingdom Hearts game” (KH2 had 15 so at least 16), which turned into “the longest 5 single-visit worlds of any Kingdom Hearts game”
@@mistayoutubah oh yeah that shit. They managed to fool my ass cause I completely forgot lol like yeah we can definitely complain but at least he gave us the game. Although I personally feel like we complain about kh3 cause of the long wait since 2007, so we expect like the best of the best which isn't wrong to expect that at all, but that just me
This modding is actually so overdone. Keep it simple. Give roxas the abilities of his kh2 dual wield form vs Axel as default with a block. Let his abilities in his kh3 fight against saïx come at the cost of drive. Maybe give ability to switch to single keyblade form with his kh2 block at the cost of no drive. That double form moveset isn't authentic enough or exclusive enough for Roxas. Only that ultimate move suits as a limit ability I guess, but then again you might as well get the crazy ability hooded Roxas boss had in kh2fm. Overall, I feel its just a lot of overcooking, with no real sense of design or style.
Ok but why? Roxas’s original combos where more then good enough in both his single and dual wield form, the mod is really impressive but can we at least lose the other characters abilities on Roxas before ya may as well just make a fan make character limh, also the guard is incorrect, he crosses his arms during a guard, not just his key ballades in both 358/2 days and when you battle him in Final Mix 2
