Nothing really new...I would be happy if they shut up about this until it was closer to release. Stop announcing stuff too early SE!

I'm not looking forward to how complicated Nomura makes this for absolutely no damn reason.

it is
and its probably safe to assume Terra is still possessed would be on the other side. Especially since Axel has a keyblade now.
They do more so when you actually play the games.
No, Nomura has clearly stated that at least mainline KH games will star Sora as the main character for the foreseeable future. That doesn't, of course, mean that there can't be new playable characters and there is always the possibility that they'll do BBS like spin-offs with no Sora. But yeah, Sora should remain in the center of things.

Yeah. Given how long we're probably going to wait for KH3 this preview feels early since we haven't even gotten much of anything on FFXV which is presumably coming first, LOL
Now I'm depressed thinking about how long we'll be waiting to get to play these two games.

FF 15 holiday 2015
Kingdom Hearts 3, Spring, 2016
My guess.

Agreed.
That's what the HD collections are for. Or people could just wiki/youtube it.
If you ignore the "spin-offs" then you will be missing out on a lot of the story. You can't skip various games in a series and expect to know whats going on.
Terra isn't going to be one of the seven. The storyline of KHIII will obviously be about saving Aqua from the Realm of Darkness where she has been trapped since BBS and turning Castle Oblivion into its former glory and fixing Ven's heart. The two remaining keyblade wielders should be Axel/Lea and Kairi, who'll probably be on journeys of their own to train their skills.
Also, I think Nomura hints quite heavily to surprises, so maybe things won't be quite as predictable as that. Maybe one of the known seven will be prevented from participating and we'll have some surprises replacing them.

they will release Dream Drop Distance HD in 2015 and KH 3 on 2016 lol.
It's not from "nowhere". He comes to Yensid to train to become a wielder once he's returned to his human form and he just shows he succeeded at the end of DDD.
So unless you are hardcore fan that's willing to submit to shit gameplay in order to experience the story in those games(some of the spinoffs are garbage), you are screwed. Seems like pretty close-minded philosophy regarding this franchise.
WOW. Completely forgot about that. They still need to find his body in Castle Oblivion. Gotta watch that KH Timeline video again as a refresher.
Someone doesn't skip various books in a series if they want to understand everything, the same could be applied here. If you don't want to play the games then that's up to you, it isn't the games fault that they add new things to the story.
Meh, the only lacluster game is Days and even it's far from garbage. Besides, they are developing 1.5 and 2.5 HD ReMixes for a reason. You get all the best games in the series to play and can just watch the lesser games as short movies.
The essential games in the series are 1, (Re)CoM, 2, BBS and DDD. Coded is basically just a teaser for DDD and Days just fills in some gaps as to how Roxas cane to be and do what he did. In the bigger picture, it's not important.
I know, it's just jarring how Sora/Kairi/Riku had a connection to
Ven/Aqua/Terra
Lea
Sure, but to be fair getting to wield a Keyblade is all about inner strength and while the seeds for it were planted a long time ago, unlocking the power to wield a Keyblade didn't take all that long for Sora either once the time to do it came. I guess Axel's interaction with Roxas might left its mark on him. Maybe Roxas did to Axel unknowingly what Aqua etc. did to Kairi, Sora & Riku.

I'm going to guess that
Sora will actually be one of the thirteen darkness. Even though he was saved at the end of DDD, I don't think Xehenort is willing to give him up that easily as he clearly has bigger plans.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Axel is always messing up people's plans. Xehanort actually succeeds in getting the (arguably) strongest Keyblade master on his side and then Lea/Axel comes in and just replaces him like it's no big deal.
Hope KH3 has a Saix/Axel subplot. We still don't know what those two were up to during their early days in the organization.

Precisely why at this point, I don't give a damn about KH's core storyline and timeline any longer. I only play them for the gameplay, charming Disney world and their individual scenario, excellent art direction and music as well as their overall presentation.
It's said that Nomura is taking FFXV to a different story direction, and something that is "closer to his personal taste" than what KH series has become. With the help of Tabata, Nojima and Akiyama, hopefully the story will be one worth following till the end.
Nonetheless, looking forward to both titles.
Pretty sure Saix will probably be a part of the thirteen darknesses (doesn't he have yellow eyes already?), so maybe it's likely Axel's journey will put him against Saix and maybe we'll hear about their plans then.

I have figured for a long time now that Braig/Xigbar would betray Xehanort but I don't see him as one of the 7...
Ha ha! I'm so happy to read this!
Has this day actually come!? Nomura teasing KH3 story plots!?
I so can't wait for this game! I also got re-reminded about FFXV yesterday too, very much looking forward to that too, but as others have said, weird we havent seen much news of it still again yet... I would have thought FFXV was at a stage where more could be said about it at this point.
Really looking forward to both of them anyway, they're both the biggest reasons why I wanted (Needed!) a PS4.

Spoiler about Saix and DDD ahead
He's already confirmed to be one of them as showed in Dream Drop Distance.

You skip one Kingdom hearts and you have no idea what the fuck is happening!
I stopped playing these games after disliking 2, but I may play 3 for the hell of it. I'm going to need a new google doc to sort it out.
It's nice to think of how cool BSG was, even when it didn't live up to itself.

The opening cinematic for kh3 will probably sum up events up till then like how kh2 summed up kh1 and CoM.

I'd say that and I fail to see what's "next gen" about the visuals from what we've seen.
yeah...I mean you'd expect FFXV to hog all the spotlight before anything KH3 related shows up ,but I guess SE likes to mess around.
Fixed
I am starting to think SE might have switched around FFXV with KH3. Maybe they decided to release KH3 first then FFXV.
By the looks of it that's what is going to happen.KH3 actually got kinda more coverage than XV(if you discount the versus stuff)
