[Idea] kingdom hearts cross over event

Who are you to say that Nomura is incorrect ? How arrogant from you.

A written legal document versus a man having a conversation with a reporter. Which is more binding?

Nomura is just the director of the game, he might be the one who designed the characters, and is in charge of the production of the game, but regardless of whether it is owned by Disney or SE, Nomura has no power in this, and while he might be right, he isnt a representative of the SE legal department, therefor it is entirely possible that Nomura is misinformed, as it is evidently a confusing partnership.

Sorry but I strongly dislike Kingdom Hearts, I think that game and Final Fantasy shouldn't be entangled, KH strays too far from traditional FF games!...

Does it? huh..
Lets see...

A relatively young but skilled protagonist from humble origins gets swept up in a quest to save the world from destruction along with a cast of plucky diverse companions?
Check go Zidane you can do it! wait.. i mean Sora

Brooding main character spends much of the game struggling with his own dark past and feelings of guilt over failing his friends and falling to darkness causing him to isolate himself from them..
Check, its ok Cloud.. i mean Vincent.. i mean Riku. Your fangirls forgive you.

Female main character is a princess who harbors great power that is sought after by the villians of the series and winds up having the aforementioned power forcefully extracted from her, also she has a mysterious past she cannot remember due to some manner of trauma.. Dagger you didn't have to dye your hair red your disguise is fine o.o...
Check

Main villians are generally horribly misunderstood people who are doing the wrong thing in a desperate attempt at giving their lives meaning.. o.o i thought the organization only had 13 members.. every final fantasy villian ever.
Check

Main characters make it through impossible situations using nothing but the powers of friendship, determination, and the heart?
Check

Main character is chosen by an otherworldly being to be the hero who will save everyone and bring light into the world.
huh.. hey Sora we are interchangeable! Can i use your keyblade?
Check

I've been having these weird thoughts lately.. and sweating buckets besides. (Seriously if the character creation and opening dream sequence were set to kh music it would be a dive into the heart, same opening as KH 1)
Check

Moogles?
Improbable means of transportation?
Magic?
Summons?
Check, check, check, aaand check.

Amazing music? Check
Amazing story? Check
Epic moments of gravity defiant combat? Check
Everyone is stylish beyond reason? Check

Improbable but awesome weapon for the main character? Check

Storyline that gets progressively darker and more depressing as it goes along? (seriously, the story right is sad for /everyone/
hoping Sora can fix things in KHIII because wow..)
Check

hmm.. i disagree, i think it would be fairly easy to have a
Kingdom Hearts event, more fitting and more possible than any game besides Final Fantasy XI infact.
If you don't want an event then ignore it if it ever happens.
Some people would enjoy it, I certainly would.

Who am I - someone who knows full well how businesses like this operate - Ever seen videos with developers turning every single question to their legal representitive to ask for clarification? I've sat in on interviews like that - I provided the hard legal description to you Kupo, take it for what it is: SE owns their Characters and have discretion to potentially use them in other IPs - Including FFXIV

speaking of KH .....i would love to see the Coliseum added to FFXIV :3 , Uldah has one.... and outside 1 fight.....

[HakaseNyan]

Not Final Fantasy.

Agreed, i mean we have the wolves den but i never understood why we don't get to fight on the blood sands like Raubahn did, or like you are hyped up at the possibility of doing during the gladiator questline, it seems like wasted potential to me, i have been hoping that they would eventually have it be a thing in the future.. like imagine it hosting pvp tournaments for gil prizes, glamor, minions ect. Or for pve you could use it to train against enemies that fight back, or fight certain monsters or bosses you have beaten before.
I want to fight Raubahn on the blood sands~

Not Final Fantasy.

Neither is dragon quest.

Wow, I apologize then - they must have sold the rights at some point. Document I saw stated SE owned a bulk of the intellectual properties. Makes me detest Disney even more now..
