Earlier today, I met a woman at our local art store. We began talking and got around to the topic of Kingdom Hearts. She claimed that she was one of the original beta testers for KH3, but the group was fired after one of them leaked.
Well, she "leaked" to me, and because I'm a bad kind person, I'm going to tell you guys what she said.
(*possible* spoilers for KH3 below)
Please keep in mind that none of this information is verified or finalized. It is most likely a complete rumor, but it's something.
According to the woman I met, KH3 will [most likely] follow the Organization's past. We will learn the true names of all the members except for Axel. We will also learn what lives they lead. (Note that the following story lines are subject to change.)
Axel was a gypsy in the Hunchback of Notre Dame world.
Marluxia was a gardener for the Beast, but he escaped to the town before the curse was placed upon them. He was named "Alexander," rather than use an acronym because a "fantasy-style" name wouldn't fit the colonial setting.
Vexen worked as Hojo's [FF7] assistant in Radiant Garden, and also dated Lucrecia [FF7], who later left him for Hojo.
The battle system is more or less the same as in KH2. There will still be Reaction Commands.
It is rumored that there will be 108 cut-scenes.
Unfortunately, that is all that she told me. I don't know about the other Organization members - only what is up there. If I find out anything else (though it's unlikely), I'll be sure to post it. :D Until then, please don't ask me about any other details, and keep in mind that this has a 99.9% chance of not being true.
Don't kill the messenger.
edit, 02.04.07: I apologize for overreacting to some lady's lie. D: Don't believe any of this.
I'd met this lady at the store several times before and we'd talked about KH. When she told me these rumors of hers, my first reaction was to believe her. As I absolutely adore KH, I wanted to share the rumors with everyone on the off-chance that they might be true. A few minutes after posting this, however, I realized that wow, she'd fooled me completely. Even so, I didn't want to delete it because it's funny.
I don't believe these "rumors" in the slightest, and you shouldn't, either. Considering that the woman is over thirty, draws Marluxia/Vexen yaoi as a hobby, cosplays as Xigbar, has memorized the hair colors of every KH character and matched them with Copic markers, and still lives with her parents, there's no doubt that she was lying now.
I feel pretty stupid, guys. :/ Once again, I'm really sorry if any of you actually believed this and for making myself look like such a complete and utter idiot. But I'll leave it up; it's good for a laugh.
