Describing plot points from the Kingdom Hearts franchise at large sounds very silly. Mega64 describing them to strangers in public is downright painful.
After completing Kingdom Hearts II over a decade ago, I was pretty much resigned to never playing the franchise ever again. While there's some mixed to positive reaction towards Kingdom Hearts 3 in our review after years of development, charting the myriad of convoluted plot points across a number of games over a multitude of different platforms is a logistical nightmare.
Thankfully, Mega64 employed the services of Kindgom Hearts fanatic "BryceTheNobody" to explain the finer intricacies of the overarching narrative to complete strangers in what I assume to be the downtown core of San Diego, CA. The goal of the video is to increase the level of Kingdom Hearts lore from Zero Understanding all the way to Maximum Understanding.
It's no small task, however, as people seem to be too busy early on a weekday morning to listen to Bryce explain how Roxas / Sora was put into a stasis pod for two years in order to regain his lost memories after they were meddled with at the hand of Organization XIII. However, some were willing to stop and learn about how Sora was just dreaming about Roxas doing all of his chores at the beginning of Kingdom Hearts 2, which is more than courteous enough.
In all seriousness, this video is peak Mega64 at its finest, uncovering the raw reactions from people when you try to explain anything related to the bats— craziness that is the plot of the Kingdom Hearts franchise. It becomes downright painful to watch at times, as you can feel the concentrated cringe levels permeate through the video.
If you wanted to avoid the cringe and sit down and understand the franchise's story ahead of Kingdom Hearts 3, you only have to make your way through close to a dozen dozen-hours' worth of video games to catch up. That, or you can watch a guy painfully (and accurately) explain how many characters are really just another version of Ansem.
