Characters

[edit]

When I tried trimming the article, I noticed there was a heavy focus of every character appearing in the game even though they are incredibly minor and thus are actually never mentioned in the plot section. As Favre1fan93 reverted my edits, I saw around 4,964 bytes being added, making it come across as undue weight and fancruft. Before reverting again, I think this should be discussed here.

I definitely agree it needs some trimming. Content like "The Final Fantasy Moogle character returns as the item shopkeeper" is wikia-level stuff. Sergecross73 msg me 00:36, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with your effort to trim. And if the editor who dispute your edits still believe in going into further detail about the characters, even the minor ones, I don't see why they couldn't refocus their efforts into expanding certain sections in Characters of Kingdom Hearts instead.

Tintor2 Kindly ping or notify me of a discussion like this since I'm involved. As I was unaware, I went to the article first per my notifications and watchlist, and restored another version which I believe is an acceptable compromise to remove the WP:LISTCRUFT concerns. As I expressed, my main issue with the changes and gutting the section was the removal of the characters that are part of the gameplay experience ie the party members outside Donald and Goofy, as well as the Links character, two mechanisms discussed above the Characters section in Gameplay. As well, I restored noting how Yozora is introduced in this game, given the character's presumed prominence moving forward in at least IV, as well as a restructure/c/e of the Final Fantasy info. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 02:13, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Include information regarding the noticeably poorer critical response to the Nintendo Switch version as well as widespread published reports of low performance from the cloud based gameplay.

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 10:35, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@2603:7081:453E:8100:45A2:DF5B:7446:2CF4: I would do it but it kinda is hard to write reception sections of big games. I mean, we can't say "X says that" but instead write generilaztions.Tintor2 (talk) 22:25, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Strange phrasing

[edit]

The article contains the following sentence: "The possibility of a Nintendo Switch version of the game might be created, but wanted to focus on the development and promise of completing the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions was thought." This is also present in the archived, reviewed version of the article. There might be more instances of bad phrasing like this. I have no time to look into this now, and am not sure this is the right way to 'bookmark' the page for this purpose, but this very much has to do with improving the article, so it seems on topic.
