I, for one, definitely look forward to having more story in this convoluted (yet enjyoable) mess trapped in a smartphone game that I will never play

Square Enix is currently holding a campaign where participants can guess the title of the game. Square Enix will give a prize to 10 winners who guess the name correctly.


Flash forward to after the game launches: "there were zero winners"

Uncanny Valley is Uncanny

Also, chi is pronounced as kai since I assume they are referring to the Greek letter χ

Normally yes, but the common pronunciation of χ in Kingdom Hearts is "key" because it's easier to make wordplay that way. The series even has a scene where they acknowledge the "kai" pronunciation.

You would think they would have just let it be pronounced "Kai" to avoid confusion, but then I remembered this is Kingdom Hearts and I thought, "Of course not, you fool!" Rolling Eyes
