What I love most about this series is that I can play it for 20 years and still discover little things I never knew about. I always love videos like this!

Kingdom Hearts 2 is a beloved action RPG Disney crossover developed by Square Enix in 2005, it combines the gameplay of many action games with the RPG aspects of the Final Fantasy franchise, also developed by Square Enix. LIKE BRO I KNOW, IVE PLAYED THE MFING GAME BEFORE
I’ve watched a LOT of KH content throughout the years and you still managed to proved some things I have never seen or heard of! Great job! The algorithm put a real gem in my recommended! Keep it up :)
I know a lot about these games, and the only thing I knew in this video was the final form magnet, as well as getting on the balcony in Beast's Castle, these are some real obscure facts here!
as a hardcore kh fan, this video was great, actually had a ton of things i had no idea of. id love for more if you have more interesting stuff. i think something nice to mention in another video would be how you can level up valor form with some reaction commands, but not others. theres some weird ones like more famously mcp's rc, but for example cyclone and bat cry dont increase it i think. oh and the infinite jump exploit with going into drives to refresh aerial dodge (a bit more known but still cool).
Valor levelling with some Reaction Commands is probably something worth highlighting, may not be feature in the next episode, but one for the future. Thanks for the suggestion!
This was such an interesting video! I had no idea about any of these glitches or fun facts at all, tbh i thought Kh2 was one of those very very rare games where the coding was done so well that theres almost nothing buggy about it
I’m glad to see these kinds of videos on my recommendations. When seeing this, I’m glad there are some people inspired from DarkViperAU’s Facts and Glitches series and incorporating into other games, especially since I really enjoy the Kingdom Hearts series!
Sorry to tell you that the idea for a facts/glitches video series is not a DarkViperAu original concept. People been doing stuff like this long before video sharing was even common. We used to have magazines, forums, and entire websites dedicated to this very same idea
It's kind of amusing how many sound related bugs they managed to create in the ports. With some still persisting even today in the Steam port. Even 10 years after the HD port was released on PS3 some audio clips still refuse to play now. Recently got caught off-guard by silent Luxord again.
Okay usually I know literally everything in these kinds of videos for games I hyperfixate on and this surprisingly says a lot of things I didn't know so awesome for that
DarkViperAU and Pinsplash were direct inspirations for the series. I'm also an editor for DarkViperAU, so I've naturally leaned towards his style as time has gone on.
Really glad this was suggested in my TH-cam feed, amazing video! Most kh fact videos never mentions some of the things you talked about . Did not know u could cheese Demyx, i wonder if you can do the same with Xaldin
Scripting, reproducing, recording and narrating is a time-consuming process, that's potentially a reason why videos like this (especially for KH) are quite uncommon. But KH2 is an amazing game, so I want as many people as possible to know all the jank you can do in it!
This is interesting! I knew almost none of these facts haha. There’s some instances of no music playing at random times in the original PS2 releases, but it’s much more infrequent lol
playing with KH2 rando made me really adore the "Roxas Wavedash" as I took to calling the quick run he does It's probably just because Roxas is (I imagine) a funky hacked-together Sora object, but I still can't help but wonder if some consideration was made for him to be slightly more playable. The fact that he gets a unique dual keyblade moveset just for Axel 2 makes me wonder. (at least, I don't think it's just boneless Valor) Also even if it's only the tiniest of oddities it's kind of a shame we're unlikely to ever get our hands on the actual software version of the cloud games on switch, just to pick them apart. Realistically it's likely just a slightly early port of the EGS build, but still. I assume there's probably not much but i can't help but wonder what else is in the kiosk demo files. Like yeah it's just more of KH2 if anything but it is curious.
@@sw11500 i would sometimes look at it but I avoided temptation, it had already been 3 years which is what it usually takes for the EGS contract to end
Literally only 2 minutes into this video. Thank you for not repeating what is now (at least to the fanbase) common knowledge. It really gets on my nerves when I see videos that are nearly identical to each other because they spew the same exact stuff. Props for actually making this unique🫡
@@coreysg9 and as a long time kingdom hearts fan I'm loving it dude. Learning stuff I never knew about for games I have played countless times ever since I was a toddler
I feel like most glitches/exploits in kh2 I knew before this video made sense or are understandable. But I don't understand how the soft reset glitch makes any sense. That is an insane glitch LMAO
Thanks for the sub! To clarify, the second bug is not exclusive to any remaster. It can be recreated on all versions of KH2 with video proof existing for at least the original KH2 English release.
I swear this is the first KH2 Facts and Glitches video I've ever seen that has information I haven't heard a thousand times. Question; will using the soft reset mod cause these audio glitches as well?
Yes, the soft reset mod does suffer from an audio dropping issue. However, I don't think you can soft reset on the main menu, so you can't ever create the multi layered music bug.
I imagine the soft reset wasn't ever intended as a cut feature outside the demo. It was meant to return to title screen in case one wanted to play the other map.
in case you are gonna make one for KH1 i got something for ya, when you first land in traverse town after destiny islands you can jump on the sliding roof and jump onto the roof of the accessory shop, there you can bypass an invisible wall. If you leave the first district without activating the trigger the game is softlocked in traverse town. It wont be possible to leave or progress the game at all. I first discovered this on the PS4 version and it exist in every version since
KH1 would 100% be a really interesting series, but I don't have any intention making that as of right now because my experience with that game is nothing in comparison to KH2. Sorry!
It's sad because there were little to no audio bugs in the original. Then the ports happened... although I'll give Square a pass for the bugs on the soft reset since they didn't release it.
I'll admit my coding knowledge is not amazing, but I know enough that I can say the dialogue box asking if you want to go back to the title screen doesn't (shouldn't, at least) do anything in itself outside of running a set of code that properly directs the game through the motions of a soft reset if the player selects yes, and simply removes the box if they say no. So I fail to understand how they couldn't make it so doing the soft reset code can't just... direct the game to those lines of code. Or, IDK, just cause the return to title option to pop up and pause the gameplay in the background, so it still has to go through the motions of that particular popup. if that's so very vital to how they coded it. I'm honestly so very baffled. Can the modders not get it to work like that despite me thinking it shouldn't be that hard, have they not tried, or is that actually already an option if you're playing on PC?
I was very tempted to call the series that, but you'd inevitably get people commenting 'Umm ackshually 🤓☝️ I did know 1 out 13 facts, so your title is inaccurate!! 💯💯'
@@coreysg9 No I'm just saying you should've mentioned that the Steam version exists. You called it the current version but that wasn't true by the time the video released
@Zinkolo At the time of the video's release, the version I referenced was correct. The Steam version or the Epic update had not arrived yet. Regardless, I also state the 'Epic version', which has nothing to do with the Steam version.
9/12 of the facts and glitches I showed in this video can be performed on the PS2 version. I chose to record using the PC version because it looks better and mods to disable the music.
Damn not bad I didn't know a few of those. Also I've had the soft reset bug with the audio happen I was wondering wtf was going on the first time I was having audio just dropping everywhere lol. I used a soft reset mod for speedrunning proposes
Straight to the point, no intro, no fluff, 11/10 content
Underrated
Not only that there's enough content for a 10 minute video.
We get our cake and he gets to eat too.
4:11 Roxas attempts to assert dominance against the nobodies. Fails horribly
He's completely invulnerable during the attempt. I'd say it goes well!
I like how Demyx said "Uh Oh!" right before the Infinite Trinity glitch. Like he knew his fate was sealed.
So if you RESET too many times (power of waking) his voice can no longer reach you.
"Sounds" fair
This game was released so many years ago and yet in 2024 you still learn something new. The final form magnet trick was very cool.
What I love most about this series is that I can play it for 20 years and still discover little things I never knew about. I always love videos like this!
The soft reset issues explain why it wasn't available on retail. Never could figure out why, fun to have that explanation!
Roxas having a transformation where he turns into KH1 Sora feels weirdly fitting.
This video was recommended to me. Just a heads up if you care about the algorithm. Great video, btw
It brought you here, therefore I care 💘
