Sacred Symbols+, Episode 497 | It's True: Colin Played (and Beat) Kingdom Hearts
Added 2026-01-10 17:00:17 +0000 UTCIt's me, Colin. I hope you had a nice holiday! A nicer one than I did, anyway, as I was coerced into playing 2002's original PS2 action-RPG Kingdom Hearts during part of the break. Though Magnanimous Colin is dead, and though I fulfilled 'the spirit of the deal' last year, I nonetheless went all-out, spending 25 hours with Kingdom Hearts and living to tell the tale. Did I like it? Actually, I kinda-sorta did. Or (at the very least), I definitely didn't hate it. Surprised? Me too. So maybe the holidays weren't so cursed after all. Nonetheless, I gathered two of our resident Kingdom Hearts fans -- Dustin and Brad -- to talk about my time with the game, reflect on the experience, and perhaps even tease more to come. What are you waiting for? Hit play already. Gwarsh!

Dustin - this entire Colin/Kingdom Hearts saga started with you. You’ve been the one nagging and grinding Colin down to where he actually beat kingdom hearts… and you didn’t come prepared with a single question?..

2026-01-15 04:58:21 +0000 UTCEarly in the episode, Colin said something like, "The choices you make aren't inconsequential", what is he referring to? I haven't played KH and was waiting for someone to elaborate, but they never did. Something about levelling?

2026-01-14 15:39:39 +0000 UTCI will preface this with the statement that I enjoy Chain of Memories. Please Colin for the love of Nomura don't play Chain of Memories yet. Just play KHII as your next entry. Glad to hear you enjoyed the game overall.

2026-01-13 21:42:48 +0000 UTCI got up to Traverse Town back in the day and then realized I fucked up with the initial choices. I went on GameFAQs to look up the best options and restarted
