KHI makes a KH game! Discussion #2: Characters and Character Design

[turninto]

ladies are pretty cool

oh my oops i accidentally quoted my own post

[Xenin]

Well, I wouldn't exactly call anything that's been drawn so far "realistic," and Sora fits in basically nowhere (including Destiny Islands), so...

Didn't mean realistic..I meant I like more cartoonish then anime look in games..as in American Style catoonish..

Anyone I should bite my own tongue anyway because those new pics Riku...I like them..alot.. Just sayin..If that's meant to be a protagonist I can't wait to see his Keyblade or home island concept art.. no real complaint..But I would like to ask is he meant to be a happier character or more of a serious adult like one?

Oh thanx :), yeah they're both meant to be protagonists. Um well I haven't really had a whole lot of bg on them but I'm definately gunna start expanding on their stories and things yano hopefully soon haha (and since I have finals and all in school I'm short on time right now ><)

And he's more of a calm guy, not exactly serious but il l build on his character later onn (only if they're legit tho)

Well hey if you need it, I've always been more of a Character concept builder more then story! I would love to bounce some ideas of ya if you wouldn't mind sometime! I like the look and there's alot to be done there story wise if you ask me. And I'm really looking forward to seeing these characters develop story wise and artistically.

[kingudamu]

okay- gonna drop this off before bed-

i also have edits of ageru and "villian da wise"

edit-i think im gonna write up some character creation forms for Ageru and maybe one other chara at work tomorrow...


oh, and- how does everyone feel about FF characters taking up more of a serious role? i would really like to see FF side of kh be equal with disney. thoughts?

[Xenin]

Okay from looking at all these ideas and such..would it be a bad idea to say we should at least make a story on manga out of these character's??? Just saying :P

@kingudamu

For those last two character's could I recommend Hikami for the more human guy and for the darker humanoid thing Shibutso would be cool? If not that's okay..Also I find black and red would be a nice touch to the older man's clothing pattern.

^^^^
that would be wicked awesome, but it would be a doujin (fancomic) then, and those can only be so-so long....
like, one volume, with anywhere to 30-160 pages....it really dependsT^T
dont get me wrong, if we could make it into a manga, i would jump on that like a fatboy on cake.i just dont want to be sued for trying to make a 5 vol manga on a copyrighted game...

now, if it was a webcomix, i would jump it instantaneously <3

I could see it being much like Bleedmans work from snafu-comics if we were to do it that way..but if it comes to that I would be fully devoted to that..but this convo should be a whole different thread

Yeah ill definately take that in to mind thanx :) but I kinda wanna see if I can come up with my own story for these two. If not then ill probably collab wit u yeah?

Ohh I really like these, I like the way you color ur picss. :)

Definately, id really want like claire or snow or other characters from FFXIII I think it'd be fun to even see Cait Sith in it ahaha. N e ways id like to see new FF characters, that'd be cool :)

[kingudamu]

^^^^^
1- thank you, and if you actually like the color techs i did, well you oppinion is better than mine so.....
2-yes,yes,and yes!the world needs more caith sith! and zidane, you never see him outside dissidia anymore T^T

[Raiinu K.D.]

oh oops I accidentally quoted it too lol my b

No, but seriously. This is the best design I've seen thus far, guys.

[Comoman]

Its good but I personally don't like it that much.

I disagree with Kingudamu. Disney is the reason most people are attracted to Kingdom Hearts right, other than the fact that SE made it. People don't play the game for the Final Fantasy characters, that is why they have their own games! If you put in an equal amount, then it is basically a final fantasy game! I like the amount that are in there right now

I agree, the people,even before kh came out and people that have never heard of FF or SE, that have come to like kh, first had a love for Disney cuz I mean everyone has seen disney before and there are a TON of fans of it so SE collabing with Disney was a big and successful move(and I bet there was a lot of people in japan stoked to git their hands on another SE game). I was actually surprised at how big the franchise came to be.

Anywayyss
About the balance of the ff and the Disney characters, I kinda meant to say thatt I'd rather see new ff characters(other then the ones weve seen in previous kh games like replace the old with the new in a way) but we could still keep the main ff characters in the game?
Just my opinion haha :)

[Tanner22]

Oh I got ya. Hmmm I like some of them, even though I haven't ever played a FF game. I like Yuffie and Aerith i guess, and cloud isn't too bad. I really don't have any preference though XD
