I know my sense of humour is absolutely dead when I find myself crying from laughter at that whole "subtitles frenzy" moment I can't help it, seeing things like "Donald obtained e" and "empty" just broke me, and even Alice going on about the dalmatians and stuff. Such a fun glitch, thank you for the good laughs :')
And using the journal glitch, I wound up finding unused text. "The Keyblade is reacting. Use the Keyblade." According to some people on Discord these are two separate lines.
If I remember correctly from the early days of the original KH's release, the reason the Bizarre Room's stove grate has a hitbox is because you can cast Blizzard on it to shut the stove off before the Trickmaster has a chance to light its bowling pins on fire. Would only work if you got all the evidence boxes and earned Blizzard before the fight, of course. Not sure I ever tested it myself, though . . .
There was a mod for KH1 called Critical Mix that changed around a lot of the code and such, and it actually uses this room for the final fight and an unlockable tournament cup. It's quite fun to play in against different bosses due to the varying platforms that make it feel less like a room and more like a natural creation.
I don't know if you know this already, but during your time in the Green Room, if you don't talk to Leon, and try to escape using the doors to the alleyway or the red room, Leon says something along the lines of "It's dangerous out there. Don't wander off." And "Just can't sit still, can you?" I found this out while just being bored, as one does. I actually broke Traverse Town on that save file, but soft reset it, and discovered this. It's hecka cool to my brain, because I don't know why. Just wanted to put this out there
This damn game. In 25 years someone will make a video explaining that Yozora is actually secretly hiding behind one of the Neverland doors and I would totally believe it. every time I think I know all there is to know about it, I learn something new.
@@phoenixkh93 That scene where you briefly see "Kairi" walk up to the ocean. That ain't KH2 Kairi. The outfit is different and the hair color is different. It's just a theory that it's Verum Rex girl but it's a theory I choose to believe because it makes it more interesting
About the stove in Wonderland: during the Trickmaster fight, casting Blizzard on the stove at any point makes the TM unable to light its sticks and use its more powerful attacks.
That noclip website is awesome and I’ve always wanted to noclip on my favorite games like that. Something I realized in wonderland is that there’s two separate lotus forests/bizarre rooms, one for when sora is normal sized and one where sora is “big” but the room is shrunk down. Not really a detail, but more a way to give the illusion sora is big but I never really considered it lol.
The subtitle glitch can happen other ways too - I got the 1.5/2.5 for PC and in the cutscenes before fighting Ansem on Destiny Islands I paused a bunch to check my phone and after one of the pauses quotes from the underground cavern kept appearing alongside the glitchy "Sora obtained X" ones. Zero clue how to replicate it though but I didn't do anything too weird.
short explanation on why the journal-text glitch may be happening is that when the journal is loaded, all of the text inside of it is being loaded to memory. for some reason, this either takes the place of the existing event text in the room or it offsets where in the memory the text is supposed to be looking. i.e. either alice's text is stored in the second slot of text for the room and it was replaced due to cacheing, or when you talk to alice, the game wants to look for the text at position 2, but the journal causes some +1024 offset, or some arbitrary number like that, and doesn't reset the offset since that's would presumably be the location of where the journal text would be
Something to note, the "Obtained e" glitch isn't possible to do in the PS2 version. You're only allowed to pull up the journal in those scenarios in the HD releases. The PS2 pulls up the regular pause menu you get during a battle.
This may or may not be obvious but the map on the table on the deck of Captain Hook’s ship is actually a map of Neverland. I had never even considered it until recently let alone knew what Neverland’s map look like (had to google it) so I assume this is true of most people as well. I feel like it’s obscure enough to be in a video. Also kind of obvious but the guy on the suits & dresses store in the second district of Traverse Town is the Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland. One last detail I took embarrassingly long to realize is that the wizard and defender heartless are counterparts for Donald and Goofy. No idea how I only just realized that on my latest playthrough lol. Love your videos, especially the KH1 details videos
Ohhh hey I actually got that Wonderland dialogue glitch a little while ago while I was replaying the game! It was during the part after Alice went missing and all of a sudden the characters were saying stuff like “Map Jump Test” and “attained the power of healing”. I had no idea how it happened so it was kinda cool to see it brought up here. :)
So I’m not sure if you covered this in a different vid but this is a glitch I’ve ran into more than once in my life. In Neverland, for that room where you fight the Shadow Sora, if you go back there later to grind and try to open the panel to go down to a lower floor, I’ve had instances where Sora just didn’t hit the loading zone, meaning he went down to the lower room, without anything from the room, or the exits there, actually loading. Now, thankfully by flying upward back to the entrance he can just hit the loading zone correctly and you’ll actually be in the room, but it’s kind of weird if you’re not expecting it. Think of it like that under Piañta village glitch from Mario Sunshine
I have a weird memory that doesn't make sense. When I was new to Kingdom Hearts, I remember beating Deep Jungle and I got the Keyblade from there, then I specifically remember walking up the staircase in Disney Castle that leads away from the Gummi Ship Hangar, while holding the keyblade from deep jungle. The same staircase from the cutscene when donald and goofy are saying "we gotta protect the world border. ORDER!". But this would have been impossible in kh1 unless there is an action replay code to access maps that were only used in cutscenes. Anyone else have a memory of doing something in a game that shouldn't have been possible? It's like the Gaming Mandela Effect lol.
It's not quite like this but from childhood playthroughs of Donkey Kong 64 I very vividly remember getting an extra melon that it turns out doesn't actually exist.
I'm genuinely surprised that I didn't know a lot of these. Most "things you didn't know" videos are super repetitive and we've known all these for awhile. Thanks for the unique content
Alright, I know of something stupid and inconsequential that I’ve never seen mentioned by anyone else. There’s a set of optional dialogue with Tidus on Destiny Islands day 2 that’s missable if you fought him on the first day. Once you’ve fought him, selecting the second (or third, if you’ve also fought Selphie and Wakka) option when you talk to him will just loop the same response from him over and over again. If you haven’t fought him yet, he has a new set of random responses for day 2. For some reason you can read the new responses from Selphie and Wakka on day 2 regardless of how many times you fought them, but not Tidus.
The stovetop in Wonderland has a hitbox because it is actually used by the Trickmaster battle (I mean, in a way that doesn't help the boss)! You can turn it off, if you already unlocked Blizzard by that point, which prevents the Trickmaster from lighting its arms on fire. Very useful in a proud mode run.
So I think your vids have helped me realise KH1 is my favourite game (over KHII). I think the reason is that it's more weird, and quaint. KHII is a more streamlined and combat focused game, which isn't necessarily a bad thing but it is a difference. Like, (is any of this for real or not) there are so many little things that didn't affect the overall experience much but just made it feel more special, more handcrafted with love. Examples: Trinities, Dalmations, being able to pick up and throw barrels, the coloured boss HP bars opposed to multiple green ones, the Neverland Clock Tower chests, Jungle Slider mini-game, freezing Hollow Bastion bubbles, collecting postcards, Sora's heartless being playable not just a cutscene, more hidden chests, flowers in Wonderland, climbing trees/poles, doing the back to the wall shuffle along ledges, list goes on. While KH1 also had bigger strengths like better story pacing, better Disney world and character integration, more exploration and platforming, these littler things make it FEEL more special. Cause at the time it was special, it was a weird game by some zip obsessed Japanese guy mixed with Disney.
Considering that Crumbling Island was meant to be the stage for a Riku 4 battle fight, the battle would've been when Ansem showed up in Riku's form once Destiny Islands got warped.
Have you heard about the oathkeeper cutscene glitch? If you dodge roll into the cutscene Sora won't behave and instead swings his keyblade around everywhere. If you're not familiar, it was shown off in a GDQ a few years ago
there's a couple things i know of that i don't know if you've picked up on yet.(maybe) i know that in ps2 KH, you can get an elixir from the FF trio in Traverse Town if you actually beat Leon. they give it to you before sending you off from TT. the next one i know is also from ps2 KH, idk if it's in 1.5 remix or any of the other reissues. haven't been able to get it to happen.(playing 1.5 hd remix on pc) but anyways, walk in and out of Gepetto's shop at least 30 times, each time you walk in, talk to Pinocchio. eventually, he will give you a gummi ship blueprint that Gepetto(PINOCCHIO, i was wrong!) made. Gepetto will also give you a gummi blueprint for every certain 1000s of heartless you kill. they're all FF themed. i do know this much is still true of 1.5, so i might be able to get Pinocchio to give me it yet. EDIT: I GOT HIM TO DO IT FINALLY! Pinocchio will still give you Chocobo if you walk in and out of the shop, at least 30 times and talk to Pinocchio each time to him each you go in to Geppeto's shop in 1.5 remix on pc!
also, did you know that if you jump when shadows are flat, they'll come back up? Leon says they're attracted to the keyblade, so if you jump the shadows try to follow it. even Sora's shadow follows this principle in Neverland!
This was my favorite PS2 game. I have played through this game at least 10 times. For sure once every 2 years since its release, but occasionally more than that. I genuinely did not know about any of these.
Holy shit, at 3:45 I nearly spit out my coffee. The video had been pretty straight forward and factual up until then, that was some masterful comedic timing. Bravo, subbed.
Maybe it's a little to obvious but you never in any of your parts mention something about the traverse town accessory shop. If you light the fireplace inside the chimney outside will have smoke coming out. Like wise putting out the fire will stop the smoke. It's interesting because it's like the only time I can remember being able change what happens in one room to affect another room without the change being permeant.
Love the humor in the videos, i have one i don’t think you mentioned or i saw commented but if you skip Atlantica and fight through Riku-Ansem where the monsters and worlds get higher star ratings thereafter then go back to Atlantica, Ursula gets WAYY harder as a boss fight, try it! This also includes the shark fight
You probably, definitely already know this, but since you mentioned that you can light the stove, I thought I would just also add that you can also put the fire out to stop the Trickmaster from using it. I know that more people know that, but I thought it was odd that it wasn't mentioned, so you know...
Another fun detail it doesn't seem like you've discovered yet is in the Cave of Wonders / Monstro Chambers with multiple barrels. If you stack one barrel on top of another and then jump on top of the stack to try and get extra height and reach some chests before you have high jump that you wouldn't otherwise be able to reach, the barrel on the top of the stack will break itself once Sora lands on it.
So I know when sora floats like that, it means he is in a falling state and there is a little line that traces down to detect if he is "grounded" or not (I don't know it specifically for KH, but it it extremely common practice in games). Sometimes the ray misses at certain steep angles resulting in endless falling animation while in place. Now here's where the speculation comes in: Perhaps when Sora is falling like that, he is accumulating velocity. It feels strange that the rock's damage would react this way, but perhaps when sora finally collides with it, it detects a mass of great velocity striking it, and therefore it breaks. Alternately, maybe it's a fail-safe when non-essential objects are blocking sora for too long.
You can actually cast Blizzard on the stove in the Bazzar room. Doing so actually prevents the the Trick Master from lighting his batons aflame. Makes the fight a lot easier especially on level 1.
@Regular Pat #14: the pause screen's scan-lines are defined by the exact middle of the screen before pausing as seen in this video th-cam.com/video/NV6vZ-NlHQo/w-d-xo.html I promise I'm not plugging, just thought this was cool and I demand Pat make another video just talking about it!!! (and anything else he found, bc let's be real there's more stuff for him to talk about in this game)
I just watched a bunch of your KH videos and they're all great, but 3:30 earned a sub. The comedic timing on that bit was just perfect, i almost choked
About the crumbling Island, you can physically access to it by doing the infinite jump glitch in the Kh1 Vanilla ps2 ver. but for some reason this glitch just works in the end of the world version of the destiny island BEFORE you trigger the cutscene by approaching the secret place. If you gain enough height you can jump inside the arena. It's inside the biggest tree on the island th-cam.com/video/jOnf5Z_tAD0/w-d-xo.html Min 2:10 For better results disable, high jump and glide
Are you sure you can access the crumbling island? I tried it on PS2 and I was able to get the glitch and go high up in the sky but I couldn’t see the secret level or get to it. Have you ever done it yourself?
I’ve memorized the route through monstro a LOOOOONG time ago and never noticed that the door to progression glows green or that the green requiems only spawn above progression doors 😐 DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH 11 YEAR OLD ME WOULD HAVE LOVED THIS INFORMATION?!?!? 😭😭😭
If you hit a finish move on a wall you can spam that finisher move by spamming X in Olympus in the chestibule at the sign where you can't use summons etc
Not sure if you already include this but I think you might've missed the complex exp & abilities that the game never tells you about. What I mean is that what weapon you choose/exchange and what answer you gave to the fake Tidus, Wakka, and Selphie in certain order/pattern literally impacts Sora's growth. For abilities, if you choose the mickey staff in the start of the game aside that you an extra MP bar, you get stun impact and ripple drive earlier after certain amount of level up but other abilities like Zantetsuken will acquired very late in the game. And as for exp, there 3 types of exp growth depending on what answer give them in a certain order. I don't remember what it called but it pretty much goes like this, first " Fast but gets slower after lvl 36", second "moderate", and third "slow but gets faster after lvl 40". By pattern/order it depends on what or who you gave answer to first, second, third to gain any of the 3 exp growth.
So not sure if this is true, but there was a guide I was closely following on YT cause I wanted to relive the adventure of the whole kingdom hearts series starting with the first game. And apparently, after you leave the islands and make your way to Traverse town, there's an NPC who looks like another version of Tidus. Supposedly, if you speak to him 1,000 times, his usual conversation then changes to how he isn't Tidus from your home town or accidentally blurts out something to that effect. In Aladdin's world Agrabah, there's a point in the game where specific NPCs only show up for a brief time before you never see them again. One of them looks like Wakka. Supposedly if you speak to the NPC 10,000 times, his conversation will change to how he misses playing Blitzball back in the islands.
The traverse town soft lock was crazy if you ever make another KH1 random things video on Destiny islands you can’t get selphies HP below 1 by teching her ranged rope attack even though it does damage to her
Also if you grind enough to get scan on destiny islands it looks like selphies HP bar does drop to 0 after you tech her for damage but she’s still alive I could be mistaken about this though bc it’s been awhile since I’ve done it but that’s what I remember happening
You can also use Blizzard on the grate to put out the fire o the grill.... only really helpful if you got it before the Trickmaster boss fight, which requires you to get all the evidence against the heartless before the "trial".
For the first one the only times I encountered this was when I checked my phone in the middle of the fight. And when I was playing with a trackpad and keyboard. It was an interesting thing to find
Not sure if this explanation of the journal glitch is even correct but I'd wager, given that rooms in KH have different states that would be stored in memory, it could be that triggering the journal is offsetting the room event and its associated text, causing the game to read the incorrect data. What's also interesting is that the text/subtitles is referencing the correct party character e.g. when Donald is talking, the text says, "Donald obtained e" ('e' I'm assuming is just either a backup to make sure the game doesn't hard crash when it references something that can't be named, or it's just garbage data referencing the game's font list). For the cutscene voices going out of sync, it could be very well that it's reading other cutscene data for voice line triggers as well. Either way, it's a neat lil glitch. In slightly less technical speak, it's throwing everything out of sync and the game isn't realising something is wrong; think of it like a person taking your spot in a queue for an appointment, and the entire place is under the impression that it's actually you and proceeds as normal.
Despite loving your videos for a while now, I only just decided to check out both of the KH1 fact videos earlier today. So this was some uncannily good timing
Hadn't considered this before, but could you maybe cast blizzard on that grate to put out the stove when fighting Trickmaster? It would make getting blizzard before the fight more useful if that was the case.
In regards to the one about the journal manipulation I actually did it on accident the day of pc release when I was streaming the game on discord to Friends who’ve never played the game before and we all just assumed it was a pc port issue. I managed to do it in Agrabah can’t remember what part in the world I do remember it was a cutscene when you’re flying on the carpet but the text got really messed up showing random symbols from other languages and such rather than in game text like this glitch showed I should probably try to recreate and record it at some point
I didn't know most of the things you have talked about in the video, but I knew one. I knew the second one because it happened to me while I was playing KH1 (it was my second time, I think). When I saw Sora flying above the rock I was like "Shit, I don't know how I'm going to get out of this bug" and then the rock just broke. It was very strange and funny at the same time.
I went to traverse town after getting off destiny islands for the 2nd time and decided to explore it. I went into many shops I came across and every time I entered a new shop in the right order Donald and Goofy just left the place I was in before e.g. 2nd district 1st door of the hotel run all the way through go through the door closest to the workshop and you will see a mini cutscene of Donald and Goofy going into the hotel. (Check everywhere I went into the alleyway while doing this mini Donald and Goofy walking around aimlessly will trigger)
How about the End of the World Destiny Islands glitch before the Ansem battle? On top of the Seaside Shack entrance and next to the coconut tree there's an invisible ledge you can jump onto to infinitely jump out of the map or to go behind or underneath it.
Did you know you can access the platform where donald and goofy get attacked by a soldier heartless when they join your party? Theres a hatch in the roofs of district 2 you can enter that leads you there! Hope this isnt well known info :p. Its very easy to spot/get to from the bells you ring to spawn the armor boss for the 2nd time.

Here’s another one. When you defeat the pot centipede, the cutscene will be slightly different depending on which room you defeated him in.
And using the journal glitch, I wound up finding unused text. "The Keyblade is reacting. Use the Keyblade." According to some people on Discord these are two separate lines.
okay that is really cool. Does the journal glitch show different text each time it is done?

Only because after opening it Cheshire appears giving it to you
that cut room looks soooo good it's a shame we'll never get to see it fully fleshed out

Considering that Crumbling Island was meant to be the stage for a Riku 4 battle fight, the battle would've been when Ansem showed up in Riku's form once Destiny Islands got warped.
Woot my Fact showed up in a video! I was the guy who pointed out that Grate in Wonderland on Twitch.
Have you heard about the oathkeeper cutscene glitch? If you dodge roll into the cutscene Sora won't behave and instead swings his keyblade around everywhere. If you're not familiar, it was shown off in a GDQ a few years ago
I need the sauce. This I have to see.
there's a couple things i know of that i don't know if you've picked up on yet.(maybe)
i know that in ps2 KH, you can get an elixir from the FF trio in Traverse Town if you actually beat Leon. they give it to you before sending you off from TT.
the next one i know is also from ps2 KH, idk if it's in 1.5 remix or any of the other reissues. haven't been able to get it to happen.(playing 1.5 hd remix on pc) but anyways, walk in and out of Gepetto's shop at least 30 times, each time you walk in, talk to Pinocchio. eventually, he will give you a gummi ship blueprint that Gepetto(PINOCCHIO, i was wrong!) made. Gepetto will also give you a gummi blueprint for every certain 1000s of heartless you kill. they're all FF themed. i do know this much is still true of 1.5, so i might be able to get Pinocchio to give me it yet.
EDIT: I GOT HIM TO DO IT FINALLY! Pinocchio will still give you Chocobo if you walk in and out of the shop, at least 30 times and talk to Pinocchio each time to him each you go in to Geppeto's shop in 1.5 remix on pc!
also, did you know that if you jump when shadows are flat, they'll come back up? Leon says they're attracted to the keyblade, so if you jump the shadows try to follow it. even Sora's shadow follows this principle in Neverland!
This was my favorite PS2 game. I have played through this game at least 10 times. For sure once every 2 years since its release, but occasionally more than that. I genuinely did not know about any of these.
Holy shit, at 3:45 I nearly spit out my coffee. The video had been pretty straight forward and factual up until then, that was some masterful comedic timing. Bravo, subbed.
One thing I find people don't catch during initial playthrough's is the heart that leaves each heartless as you defeat them.
If you cast Blizzard into the furnace, does it extinguish the stovetop? Might be helpful for stopping the boss from lighting himself on fire.
In hollow bastion, the two large platforms you can raise and lower have a door beneath them that you can glide into for an accessory
Maybe it's a little to obvious but you never in any of your parts mention something about the traverse town accessory shop. If you light the fireplace inside the chimney outside will have smoke coming out. Like wise putting out the fire will stop the smoke. It's interesting because it's like the only time I can remember being able change what happens in one room to affect another room without the change being permeant.
Love the humor in the videos, i have one i don’t think you mentioned or i saw commented but if you skip Atlantica and fight through Riku-Ansem where the monsters and worlds get higher star ratings thereafter then go back to Atlantica, Ursula gets WAYY harder as a boss fight, try it! This also includes the shark fight
You probably, definitely already know this, but since you mentioned that you can light the stove, I thought I would just also add that you can also put the fire out to stop the Trickmaster from using it. I know that more people know that, but I thought it was odd that it wasn't mentioned, so you know...
Light it on purpose to make him walk over there then put it out once he reaches it lol
"YOU GET AN E, YOU GET AN E, EVERYONE GETS AN E"
*Cannot carry any more Es*
You can even do the glitch from #8 in Halloween Town. Open the journal before the first graveyard fight and it breaks the cutscenes after the fight
“It’s actually the perfect number”
This man.
Another fun detail it doesn't seem like you've discovered yet is in the Cave of Wonders / Monstro Chambers with multiple barrels. If you stack one barrel on top of another and then jump on top of the stack to try and get extra height and reach some chests before you have high jump that you wouldn't otherwise be able to reach, the barrel on the top of the stack will break itself once Sora lands on it.
Been kind bummed today, and I really needed this. Thanks, Pat!
Great to see you back, my lad!
So I know when sora floats like that, it means he is in a falling state and there is a little line that traces down to detect if he is "grounded" or not (I don't know it specifically for KH, but it it extremely common practice in games). Sometimes the ray misses at certain steep angles resulting in endless falling animation while in place.
Now here's where the speculation comes in:
Perhaps when Sora is falling like that, he is accumulating velocity. It feels strange that the rock's damage would react this way, but perhaps when sora finally collides with it, it detects a mass of great velocity striking it, and therefore it breaks.
Alternately, maybe it's a fail-safe when non-essential objects are blocking sora for too long.
I’d wager that it’s the second one, as a fail safe in case Sora is unable to escape certain situations.
There goes Patrick tainting my tip with an awkward joke 😂😂😂
tiduslaugh.wav
that's our pat
What does that mean????
You can actually cast Blizzard on the stove in the Bazzar room. Doing so actually prevents the the Trick Master from lighting his batons aflame. Makes the fight a lot easier especially on level 1.
@Regular Pat
#14: the pause screen's scan-lines are defined by the exact middle of the screen before pausing as seen in this video th-cam.com/video/NV6vZ-NlHQo/w-d-xo.html
I promise I'm not plugging, just thought this was cool and I demand Pat make another video just talking about it!!! (and anything else he found, bc let's be real there's more stuff for him to talk about in this game)
I just watched a bunch of your KH videos and they're all great, but 3:30 earned a sub. The comedic timing on that bit was just perfect, i almost choked
About the crumbling Island, you can physically access to it by doing the infinite jump glitch in the Kh1 Vanilla ps2 ver. but for some reason this glitch just works in the end of the world version of the destiny island BEFORE you trigger the cutscene by approaching the secret place. If you gain enough height you can jump inside the arena. It's inside the biggest tree on the island
th-cam.com/video/jOnf5Z_tAD0/w-d-xo.html
Min 2:10 For better results disable, high jump and glide
Are you sure you can access the crumbling island? I tried it on PS2 and I was able to get the glitch and go high up in the sky but I couldn’t see the secret level or get to it. Have you ever done it yourself?
This list just goes on forever... and I’m not complaining.
Here’s another. A tricky high jump can get you the chest on Merlin’s house without the yellow trinity mark.
I tried for ages to do this and would love to see footage of it :'D
I always thought that the furnace was for extinguishing the Trickmaster's fire with blizzard so they couldn't light their thingies.
That’s what I did !
hey thats me at the end!
great vid, love the outro tune
This is one of those channels that deserve millions of subscribers tbh very fucking underrated
I’ve memorized the route through monstro a LOOOOONG time ago and never noticed that the door to progression glows green or that the green requiems only spawn above progression doors 😐
DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH 11 YEAR OLD ME WOULD HAVE LOVED THIS INFORMATION?!?!? 😭😭😭
“I’ve been told that I’m semi awkward but totally doa-“
WHAT AHAH you killed me
I never fought Glut by a wall, so I never saw that animation. That's pretty funny!
If you hit a finish move on a wall you can spam that finisher move by spamming X in Olympus in the chestibule at the sign where you can't use summons etc
Not sure if you already include this but I think you might've missed the complex exp & abilities that the game never tells you about. What I mean is that what weapon you choose/exchange and what answer you gave to the fake Tidus, Wakka, and Selphie in certain order/pattern literally impacts Sora's growth.
For abilities, if you choose the mickey staff in the start of the game aside that you an extra MP bar, you get stun impact and ripple drive earlier after certain amount of level up but other abilities like Zantetsuken will acquired very late in the game.
And as for exp, there 3 types of exp growth depending on what answer give them in a certain order. I don't remember what it called but it pretty much goes like this, first " Fast but gets slower after lvl 36", second "moderate", and third "slow but gets faster after lvl 40". By pattern/order it depends on what or who you gave answer to first, second, third to gain any of the 3 exp growth.
Great to watch after work tonight, love it!
So not sure if this is true, but there was a guide I was closely following on YT cause I wanted to relive the adventure of the whole kingdom hearts series starting with the first game. And apparently, after you leave the islands and make your way to Traverse town, there's an NPC who looks like another version of Tidus.
Supposedly, if you speak to him 1,000 times, his usual conversation then changes to how he isn't Tidus from your home town or accidentally blurts out something to that effect.
In Aladdin's world Agrabah, there's a point in the game where specific NPCs only show up for a brief time before you never see them again. One of them looks like Wakka.
Supposedly if you speak to the NPC 10,000 times, his conversation will change to how he misses playing Blitzball back in the islands.
Lol someone definitely just made that stuff up as a joke to get people to waste their time
This dude is so funny and chill about it I love this Channel keep up the good work
The traverse town soft lock was crazy if you ever make another KH1 random things video on Destiny islands you can’t get selphies HP below 1 by teching her ranged rope attack even though it does damage to her
Also if you grind enough to get scan on destiny islands it looks like selphies HP bar does drop to 0 after you tech her for damage but she’s still alive I could be mistaken about this though bc it’s been awhile since I’ve done it but that’s what I remember happening
In the thumbnail, Goofy must’ve missed breakfast because he looks like he’s ready to EAT
he H U N G E R S
A year and a half?!!! It feels like I just watched it (;n;)
The og was the vid that got my attention to this channel!
This is one of those videos I wish never ended. I knew about none of these!
You can also use Blizzard on the grate to put out the fire o the grill.... only really helpful if you got it before the Trickmaster boss fight, which requires you to get all the evidence against the heartless before the "trial".
Dude that last one is absolutely awesome
"You know, I've been told that im semi awkward but still somewhat doable."
The sudden cut from that had me dying.
😂🤣
Hey Pat, good as always
For the first one the only times I encountered this was when I checked my phone in the middle of the fight. And when I was playing with a trackpad and keyboard. It was an interesting thing to find
Not sure if this explanation of the journal glitch is even correct but I'd wager, given that rooms in KH have different states that would be stored in memory, it could be that triggering the journal is offsetting the room event and its associated text, causing the game to read the incorrect data. What's also interesting is that the text/subtitles is referencing the correct party character e.g. when Donald is talking, the text says, "Donald obtained e" ('e' I'm assuming is just either a backup to make sure the game doesn't hard crash when it references something that can't be named, or it's just garbage data referencing the game's font list).
For the cutscene voices going out of sync, it could be very well that it's reading other cutscene data for voice line triggers as well. Either way, it's a neat lil glitch.
In slightly less technical speak, it's throwing everything out of sync and the game isn't realising something is wrong; think of it like a person taking your spot in a queue for an appointment, and the entire place is under the impression that it's actually you and proceeds as normal.
love your videos man
How was there STILL stuff i didn't know about this game that i've played for 20 years....I love this series
Despite loving your videos for a while now, I only just decided to check out both of the KH1 fact videos earlier today. So this was some uncannily good timing
I really enjoyed this! Found you on my recommended, gonna hopefully go right now to watch more like this from you Lol
Yess another stellar video!!
Hadn't considered this before, but could you maybe cast blizzard on that grate to put out the stove when fighting Trickmaster? It would make getting blizzard before the fight more useful if that was the case.
In regards to the one about the journal manipulation I actually did it on accident the day of pc release when I was streaming the game on discord to Friends who’ve never played the game before and we all just assumed it was a pc port issue. I managed to do it in Agrabah can’t remember what part in the world I do remember it was a cutscene when you’re flying on the carpet but the text got really messed up showing random symbols from other languages and such rather than in game text like this glitch showed I should probably try to recreate and record it at some point
I didn't know most of the things you have talked about in the video, but I knew one.
I knew the second one because it happened to me while I was playing KH1 (it was my second time, I think). When I saw Sora flying above the rock I was like "Shit, I don't know how I'm going to get out of this bug" and then the rock just broke. It was very strange and funny at the same time.
I went to traverse town after getting off destiny islands for the 2nd time and decided to explore it. I went into many shops I came across and every time I entered a new shop in the right order Donald and Goofy just left the place I was in before e.g. 2nd district 1st door of the hotel run all the way through go through the door closest to the workshop and you will see a mini cutscene of Donald and Goofy going into the hotel. (Check everywhere I went into the alleyway while doing this mini Donald and Goofy walking around aimlessly will trigger)
"Obtained e" made me lose it
That monstro one is so helpful omg I wish I noticed as a kid
The only one of these I knew about was the Olympus chest thing lol, great video!
Hey just today i started a replay of KH1FM on Proud seems nice to have this video
Wow!
Didn't know Trickmaster could do that, or that you could.
Kind of eerie seeing Traverse Town almost empty.
How about the End of the World Destiny Islands glitch before the Ansem battle? On top of the Seaside Shack entrance and next to the coconut tree there's an invisible ledge you can jump onto to infinitely jump out of the map or to go behind or underneath it.
Pat knows more than Square Enix at this point lmao
Oh, man!!!
Love that you can do that to the shark!
Did you know you can access the platform where donald and goofy get attacked by a soldier heartless when they join your party? Theres a hatch in the roofs of district 2 you can enter that leads you there! Hope this isnt well known info :p.
Its very easy to spot/get to from the bells you ring to spawn the armor boss for the 2nd time.
