OKAY, Kingdom Hearts 3 liveplurk
Onigashima
I've played and watched just enough of these games to inevitably be hilariously confused going through this
Onigashima
but to start, my ultra-high-level macro understanding of the plot:
Onigashima
>Xehanort wants the light and the darkness to be in balance, or wants the darkness to win, or something
Onigashima
>Xehanort arranges for vessels of his heart to exist at different points throughout time (Organization XIII) so that he can time travel between them
Onigashima
>The point of this is something involving getting the original true Xehanort to a specific point in time so that he can Do A Bad Thing
Onigashima
>The bad thing probably involves the X-blade or however you type it
Onigashima
what I'm more hazy on is, high level, what makes Sora's heart important to all this
Onigashima
game START
Onigashima
I don't know what this place is but it looks AWESOME
Onigashima

game so far:
Onigashima
>Intro cutscene
Onigashima
>Main menu
Onigashima
>Start game
Onigashima
>Cutscene
Onigashima
>Another intro cutscene
Onigashima
>Walking through the void looking at old cutscenes

oh sweet a story recap
Onigashima
these are actually very punctual and helpful
Onigashima
so basically after KH1, Organization XIII fucks up Sora's brain so hard that half the cast spends like four games trying to unfuck it
Onigashima
OH is Sora important because of his connection to Ventus and therefor to the x-blade that Xehanort wants to reforge
Onigashima
OK that recap is a decent place to stop for tonight
Onigashima
but it was helpful!

As far as my understanding goes Sora's ridiculously good at connecting with people, which makes him 1) a charismatic hero and 2) a great candidate for heart-sharing and bodyjacking.
Gay Be Crime Do
Also Sora being connected to Ventus doesn't have to do with plans for the X-blade, I think.
Gay Be Crime Do
Xehanort has tried twice to forge the X-blade: once with Ventus and Vanitas (pure light vs. pure dark), once now with the 13 darks/7 lights.
Gay Be Crime Do
I don't get all the logic but the 13/7 thing has to do with the fact that the original X-blade (which existed long ago during the prequel mobage game...or something???) got split into 20 pieces of that ratio.
Gay Be Crime Do
Sora and Ventus are both relevant to Xehanort's current plan in that he wants to bodyjack both of them as 2/13 of his Xehanorts, Sora having a malleable heart and Ventus currently lacking his heart.
Gay Be Crime Do
Ventus being part of both plans is mainly convenience, as plan 1 left Ven sleeping/hiding with Sora and prime real estate for plan 2.
Gay Be Crime Do
THAT'S MY UNDERSTANDING ANYWAY, I spent part of the last week binging the games I hadn't seen to catch up and that's...a fair few.
Onigashima
so Sora's not a destined hero so much as he's just
Onigashima
Like That
Onigashima
also question, as of the start of KH3 where is SOra
Onigashima
is he still on that beach from the end of KH2
Onigashima
is he sleeping in a pod
Onigashima
it's unclear
Gay Be Crime Do
Sora being Like That is...extremely accurate.
Gay Be Crime Do
Also the whole memory/gameplay selection thing is inside his head I think???
Gay Be Crime Do
After KH2 Sora went off for his Mastery exam organized by Yen Sid, all of DDD happened, and 3 picks up with Sora getting more instructions post-exam. So physically, he starts in Yen Sid's tower.
Onigashima
yeah I assumed as much
Onigashima
oh there was a third comment
Onigashima
OK so Sora's, like, around
Onigashima
he's okay right now
Gay Be Crime Do
Sora is Mostly Okay, as far as anyone who gets bodyjacked and depowered is okay. He's currently not a Xehanort Horcrux, but Xehanort still wants to make him one.
