Everything "wrong" or "missing" in this damn game is Disney's fault according to fanbrats. "MY OTP DIDN'T KISS CUZ OF DAT ST00PID DISNEY!!11" Yeah, cause they were SO scheduled to have one because you said so, and Disney is SUPER stingy when it comes to kisses. Not to mention Disney pretty much wrote the script and created the storyline. It wasn't Nomura and his associates or anything. He had nothing to do with the direction of anything in this game period. It was all Disney. Yep. Their fault.

And God, youtube is moron central. I can't read comments without getting a headache because oh lawd teh dumb. RUN AWAY.

I find that idea a little odd, because... wouldn't there have been more romance if Disney had written the script? The canon Disney couples got kisses at the end of the game, which would imply that the no-kissing is definitely NOT a Disney thing. I always got the impression that Disney was more likely to rush a romance rather than leave it out altogether.

I like Youtube because it's a good place to post videos if you want to get good traffic and you can find the occasional well-edited gem. But the comments are really all over the place.

Not necessarily. I don't doubt there's gonna be SOME romance in there SOMEWHERE if they wrote it, but you gotta remember a lot of their movies are based off fairy tales, which have that built in romance to work with as it is because a lot of the time that's the plot. You take the romance out of, say, Beauty and the Beast and you're pretty much screwed XD
..and I was being sarcastic with that comment you italicized, you know that right? XD

Yeah. XD I was directing the comment at fans who held the sentiment rather than you. Wrong target there. Sorry.

True that. I was thinking more of the Disney Channel movies rather than their animated stuff when I was saying Disney was more likely to rush the romance than leave it out. Romance is an integral part of fairy tales, but the Disney Channel tends to do more coming-of-age stories and they sometimes stick a romantic subplot in there even when it's not necessary. Their animated romances tend to be pretty well done because they're so important to the plot.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. Your icon is perfect, though.

On one hand, I don't want to come down too hard on Disney because they're a business and trying to make money. On the other hand, they seem to have taken an approach with the Disney Channel where they throw everything at the wall and see what sticks. That's a little argh. Also, the aggressive marketing for High School Musical can be slightly irritating.

Oh, definitely. I understand there's a lot of stuff that comes with being one of the biggest companies in the world, but GOAH I am SO SICK of High School Musical and Cinderella it's insane. They become big hits and they RUN with it. We don't need HSM2, HSM on ice and HSM the tour. Really.

HSM on ice! My family lives near Anaheim and I saw a flyer for that when we went to watch Monsters, Inc. on Ice at Arrowhead Pond. Nearly died laughing. But HSM on Ice might not turn out too badly. A lot of the other movies don't translate to good Disney on Ice shows because the anthropomorphic animal costumes are so cumbersome the skaters can't really move in them and there's no way to translate those lush beautiful backgrounds from the films. The shows featuring the human Disney characters usually turn out the best. But still... we don't need yet another HSM incarnation.

Yeah really. Because to the best of my knowledge, the only kiss in FF history happened in Final Fantasy X. Correct me if I'm wrong, someone. (Unless it happens in FFXII, which I haven't beat yet, so. But I doubt it.)

I have no idea what Nomura/Square are like outside this game past what I've heard from you guys, but it sounds like there was just wild rampent sex scenes and make out sessions galore before he teamed up with Disney and took all that out for this game. OBVIOUSLY there has to be a reason why there's none of this in KH and it HAS to be Disney's fault, right? RIGHT.

Yeah, you just have to endure the always-dreaded end credits to get to it. XD
