The thing about the Text Revamp mod, is that Focus is NOT Drive.
Yeah that’s kind of put me off
@@Sheepy765. I wish I could pick and choose which names I want to keep and change.
Sad to say that mod doesn't seem to work with the steam version unless I'm doing it wrong
@@HDNDraxirch There plenty of great mods I wish could work in the Steam versions of the other games. I messaged the uploaders asking if they could update them.
Drive frorms are in kh3 💀 they just changed the name to formchanges. Dummy
8:46
I popped off when I found out a mod existed for this.
This style of menu I thought was so badass and memorable and one of many reasons I wanted KH in the first place.
The mod where all enemies get a health bar looks garbage in my opinion. I would never install it, to much clutter that way
Everything looks garbage to a Millennial kh2 obsessed 😃
@@rosies69 the healthbars actually look like ass tho
i think it looks really good in smaller groups, but awful in larger groups. something id install for data fights, but not the base game
If i were to ever develope a KH game i would make sure that most of my team consists of modders. Modders make what we want into a reality
You'd probably want a more balanced set of regular developers with a few skilled and focused modders. I'd probably get a team with a unifying vision
@LeavanDragon pretty much this. Modder mainly are going off of an already established foundation from the devs, but it would be cool to actually have some in big roles so long as there are those who are mentally level headed enough
@TheAnimatedGamer yup, in fact alot of modders are far better utilized as editors. Especially these days when games get day 1 patches, I'd want a few modders on my team
The gameplay would be amazing but personally I would bring a team of full fanfiction writers to assemble a good history (?)
@luisDavidmartinez1 oh for sure, definitely need more than just modders for story. Would love to see how that gameplay would turn out though!
Today i found KH mods in db sparking zero. So far we have kh2 sora (future trunks sword) and his transformation is limit form and final xemnas (perfect cell). It really fits for sora, he even said the voicelines like "back off,this is it,you done,its over"
on game banana or vortex?
@@trillyzb gamebanana
Be careful not to play these mods online , Bandai said they gonna start handing out bans for people that play online with mods
@@OBLIXIATE no they said people modding custom battles.
You can mod in characters for custom battles that are in the game but unplayable (like chi chi or gohan black) and when a you upload those to custom battles it can cause issues.
those are the mods they are banning not client side visual mods
@@DrunkenPumpkin626 I also seen that if you play online matches with those mods that change the appearance can get you banned. Cause your online opponents won’t have the mods and it’ll mess up the opponents game
Please do a video like this for all the KH games
vanilla-style mods are underappreciated in my opinion, so these are very good to highlight. my personal favorite pick would have to be Animation Enhancement Overhaul. it adds some nice QoL to the combat experience while improving the base gameplay in a way that isn't flashy or akin to any typical character overhaul mod.
Your new mod has alot of bugs and crashes. And you forget masters defender sparks for that keyblade.
@@rosies69 dude
Its my first time ever downloading mods I thought its a complicated thing it turned out to be easy now i downloadedthe mods and game is much more moooooore enjoyable now i want thank the modding community and gamerjoint for guiding us
Hey TGJ! I would love to maybe see some Character analysis from you on the characters in the games. Feel like it would be really fun to see you go more into the lore!
I’m not gonna install most of these, but the MP bar fix is essential
omg, the color corrected characters is huge, almost can't believe how much better they look
It looks awful, completely ignoring ambient lightning, they look like plastic inserts
So good to see the walking animation on menu.
How could you miss the Coliseum??
It's not an improvement on thr base game, so it's outside the focus of the video
Hes also reviewed that months ago
Excellent video, I am getting a pc soon I've never played this game on my own device, and this video helps with what mods to use, also if you should make another video, there is a mod that no one covers. I'll get the name of the creator but the mod is called animation overhaul, it's like a balance patch for the keyblade forms, its so good and it's not over the top
I also add in Light vs Darkness, and Re Animation. You've done showcases on both before, so obviously you know them. Using those with the other ones on this list add to combat so much. That said, Critical Mode+ on LvD is absolutely kicking my ass and I'm only in Twilight Town.
Cynical has evolved. The socials are no longer garbage
hitstop and hit counter are really good too (they are made by the same guy who made betterfeelcombat)
I frankIy don’t wanna repIay KH3 without the Remind abiIity integration in a new game.
I have genuineIy not done a non-NG+ game even once in this game
Ngl, the screen shakes on hits, making the keyblade feel like I'm smacking the absolute shit outta enemies
Light vs. Darkness [specifically on Crit+] is the official canonical KH3 experience. Nomura said so.
Animation enhancement overall is one i think would of not been bad to of been included
This video is super helpful! Thanks m8
I'm surprised the Coliseum mod wasn't included in this
I wish it had more unique enemies.
I didn't think I'd be missing out but good lord, that screen shake mod is beautiful.
pretty cool mods
I left my baby on the bus to run home and install Improved movement
I would recommend the Goth Aqua mod.
Nice video!
Yo! When will you cover the Young Xehanort mod? The YX mod is called _Another Road χ_ and it was made by The Recusant. You got to check out the Young Xehanort Another Road χ mod, it is awesome af! You get to play as Young Xehanort and wield weapons/movesets from all the members of the Real Organization XIII as well as keyblades from Xehanort's past such as the DR training keyblade and the Master's Defender, and you also get to wield Sephiroth's sword and use his movesets! You got to take a look!
The mod i want to prefer with the custom kh3 hud mod is the extended version made by another person which gives sora the illustrated version of huds in different worlds
i always assumed we would get the colour slider from 0,2 in 3 and we never did would be a cool mod
There's a good number of things I love about KH3, but as a whole it clashes so much with the whole franchise, and many things seem outright nonsensical. So I'm using mods to bring it more in line with KH2, both aesthetically and gameplay-wise.
Soon kingdom hearts is going to be 23 years old🎉🎉🎉
damn man we really are dry for new kh content😔
bro really said “ESSENTIAL MODS” and went “DDD flowmotion color”
no disrespect to the creator ofc but… really??😂
Man is KH alive? Miss seeing news😢
Nomura has got to be watching this🗿
I think although in concept having all enemies health showing sounds good by it's is to visually annoying when you have a lot of enemies of screen because the screen just gets filled with green bars and you can barely tell which bar is for what enemy.
You have to try the Dragon Ball Sparking Zero Sora Mod!!!
If Re:Focus by ProtagonistJake isn't in this vid I'll scream
still waiting on proper ultrawide mods... 1 and 2 have them. they were amazing on my oled g9. dying to play 3 like that.
Please reply to me if you find it
Surprised you didn't cover a mod to remove Attractions from the game.
I just want a bigger UI mod. To make it more in line with the other games.
I have vision issues and it’s hard to keep track of my menu and health
I was thinking, With Namine being back could she be the key to connecting with sora or bringing him back again? Since she has a body again, plus her direct connection with sora it could be possible?
mods are so great
How does KH3 modding work with Steam? I have an already modded Epic Games one but I worry that may mess up modding the Steam version
I’d love to know this, I moved all my mods into the Steam version and my game wouldn’t even launch
I really dislike the rocks and mountains in the Pirates of the Caribbean world. Because Nanite landscapes didn’t exist in UE4 back in 2019 when the game came out. Also the textures look kinda bad quality wise. It really looks bad in my opinion. Is there a mod for that, that makes it look better? Does anyone know?
There's no mod where change the models of npcs an even sora?
An unpopular opinion is that Kairi in this game looks more young than her appearance in KH2 i would like to bring that back
On a slightly different subject man I cant wait until Refixed is up and running again for all the older KH games Basically unplayable atm with mods
Hello, a question with the C-MOD, could I play the xehanort armor as a playable character? which looks like a goat
There’s a similar mod to ReStyle for Birth by Sleep, called “BBS - Better Battle System,” and I really wish I could use it, but it’s apparently incompatible with the Steam version. Could someone please fix that?
Won't happen for a while
I still don't understand why they renamed so many things. Disney couldn't have ordered it
The best kh3 mod is the KH 1.5 and 2.5 hd remix
Please Talk About The Animation Enhancement Overhaul Mod For KH3 By Davick173
Yo TGJ, should I come back to NZ?
NOOOO I ONLY HAVE IT FOR PS4 (I play on PS5)NOW I CANT PLAY PLAYABLE CHARACTERS MOD
Wasn’t the whole point of link is the characters aren’t actually there or some shit that’s why it was called link and that you weren’t actually summoning them there?
That name change seemed pointless tbh
I'm sorry but most of these mods look like they'd actually harm the experience more than help haha. The wall glows exist for a reason- without them, it's kinda hard to tell what you can climb or not. I can get having it off for screenshots or videos but removing them doesn't improve gameplay.
The UI changes and minimap additions look cluttered and unnecessary.
The combat screenshake looks like it'd give me a headache after 2 minutes. Even the "subtle" settings you suggest look extremely jarring. The slowdown seems to just... slow down gameplay.
Changing names in menus is... weird? Some names were changed because they were confusing. (Second chance and once more mean the same thing so new players struggle to understand what makes them different- Meanwhile 'Withstand combo" is self explanatory.) Meanwhile stuff like focus is no longer called drive because... it's not a drive meter?
And that animation cancelling combat mod seems... weird? Endlag exists so that form changes and combo modifiers have different properties for the player to balance. Being able to mash through animations is just weird to do. Not to mention, animation cancelling can be cool if it requires the player do some tech to earn it, mixing new things into their combo, but this is just button mashing. It's "Impatience the mod."
You even mention that it makes slower weapons more useful, but... isn't the whole point that they're meant to be slow for a reason? It just screws up the balancing.
The "Color correction" mod makes every character look deep fried. The characters don't look washed out in the base game, it's just that the art style incorporates more lighting than the previous games, so colors and tones vary to fit the environments. Saturating the characters is really clashy and makes characters look like they're constantly standing in a running microwave.
The movement mod is probably a good change, and Remind abilities in the base game sounds really nice. (Especially since iirc critical mode or new game plus gives you them in the base game or something by default? So it's not like the base game isn't already designed with this in mind.) The portrait HUD is another good mod.
But you focus on a lot of really odd, jarring, and intrusive mods than these really useful, much simpler mods, which kinda over shadows them.
KH3 2025 updated for stean cosmetic/randomizer mods please! If not I understand lolll
Jak and daxter in KH3?
8:45
I see gravity values. Does this fix the floaty feeling kh3 is notoriously known for?
It can. However, due to the fact that the game is based on floatiness, you absolutely obliterate level design. Certain parts of the game become super hard because you're not floaty enough. Like toy story for instance.
@@blackghostcatgood point.
the enemy HP bars are so stupid and ugly. how could you recommend the no-glowing-walls mod to improve visual clarity only to recommend a mod that plasters unnecessary bright green bars all over the screen? completely idiotic
Screen Shake gives me cancer. Oof.
Are there any mods to fix the weird silent moments in cutscenes?
wowie
Those extra healthbars look awful
That screen shake effect is fucking awful.
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
yooooo
Guard fail fix. Animation Enhancment and improved movement (mostly for faster Keyblade Switch) are the only mods You'll ever need for an Enhanced KH3 almost all the mods listed in the video are pointless and don't effect the experience at all
Enhanced Animations? Which Mod is that
@@Icarus975
I think he means the animation enhancement overhaul mod by davick173. Highly recommend trying it out.
@@justarandomperson3700 oh yeah I was hoping Cynical would do a video on AEO it’s a really fun and interesting mod.
Are these ps5 compatible?
These are not sadly
@Icarus975 welp thanks.
The shake camera mod made me almost throw up. Please don't do that again.
Wow....all of these look... Terrible
All the "rebalancing" is just "make everything faster and buff your combos and party members, I thought people hated how KH3 was "too easy" why would you need extra accessories?
Having 10 HP bars on screen looks terrible
The color rework completely ignore how scene lighting affects the models and everyone feels out of place and oversaturated
The map might be good for a new game+ feeling byt completely destroys the satisfaction of exploring big areas, sure hunting the last emblem in san fransokyo might suck but having EVERYTHING on display is a huge overcorrection
Even the wall effect removal, seems like a good idea at first because we have played the game so much now, but who can honestly say that during their first playthrough they never forgot about it and felt stuck for a bit in arendalle or something until you saw the effect, but still I think this is the only one that doesn't feel like "little timmy made this mod"
0:50 This Horizontal* Health Bars for Enemies bring back two bells (One Piece Pirate Warriors Games ones, and Triangle* Health Bars from Tales of Xillia saga games) 🎮💽
3:19 This Maps are really useful for recollect treasures, ingredients zones and Lucky Emblems, equally a PiggyBack Interactive would have been very useful too 📚📜
12:39 Truly I missed the Health and Magic long* bars implementation from KH1 to KH2 or KH3 because knowing more clearly when the companions health is remaining🍀
13:01 Thanks for adding the colour modding from KH0.2/2.9 to KH3 for Sora, Riku, Kairi, Donald and Goofy because the colours of their new suits are more clear like that 🏳️🌈🌈
