How long have we all been waiting for 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Kingdom Hearts III? Too darn long, that’s how long, and clearly Square Enix know it too. Kudos to them for throwing in th꧒is little slice of self-deprecating snark.
So, here we are. Kingdom Hearts III has finally arrived, and gamers around the world are journeying through this l♛atest batch of Disney-tastic worlds as we speak. It’s been one heckola of a long ride, hasn’t it? The game was first announced back in 2013, and there’d been a good few years of hype even before the cat was𒅌 officially let out of the bag.
What a long and arduous wait it was. Back in October 2018, for instance, we learned that 168澳洲幸运🔯5开奖网:the mig𒈔hty Skrillex was making the theme song, which is just the kind of thing that wou💮ld make any fan howl we need this game right now (your feelings on Skrillex may differ).
As the Kingdom Hearts faithful start to savour every moment of the new release, they can consider themse🐭lves super lucky if it’s all new to them. Sadly, in the weeks leading up to the launch, a rogue retail version of the game found its way online, and☂ all manner of spoilers started to spread.
Having waited so darn long, you can imagineꦬ the chagrin of players who may have seen something they didn’t want to. On the subject of the long wait, though, there’s some good news: Square Enix themselves felt our pain, and they’ve thrown in a funny little reference to prove♔ it.
On first booting up Kingdom Hearts III, you’ll have noticed… well, you don’t actually get to play for a long time. You’ve got the obligatory 'previously on Kingdom Hearts' scenes and a multitud༺e of other cutscenes to take in first. Finally, as reports, you’re met by this snarky screen:
Kingdom Hearts II.9, it reads, a brilliant little in-joke for long-suffering fans. If you don’t understand what they’re getting at here, Kingdom Hearts III is actually the twelfth instalment in the series. In between the main entries, we’ve seen Kingdom Hearts 1.5 Remix, Kingdom Hearts 2.5 Remix, Kingdom Hearts 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue and all kinds of brilliant nonsense besides.
If there’s one th꧃ing gamers love, it’s developers laughing at themselves, and fans around social media have been voicing their appreciation of the snarky little reference. wins the reward for the best response, however, stating that on seeing the joke,
“I was propelled upwards by forces unknown just to scream incoherently for a solid two minutes at the screen.”
The Kingdom Hearts fandom sure is passionate.
