If you don't know, Kingdom Hearts 3 has a Critical Mode that halfs your HP/MP, dishes out x2 damage for you and enemies, and slows down how fast your gauge for fomchanges/summons fills. I took that challenge on while also being at Level 1 and adding on PRO codes, added handicaps to make the experience even harder! (help me)

This video would not have been possible without the help of these people:

🗝TWITTER: twitter.com/Bio_RoxasThank YouBio-Roxas2023-11-23 | Thank you for everything :) with the Thanksgiving holiday upon us I just wanted to talk to you all and express my gratefulness for the continued support throughout the years.
🗝TWITTER: twitter.com/Bio_RoxasRiku, Depression, & Isolation | The Psychology of RikuBio-Roxas2023-11-18 | **As said in the video, this is not a rebuttal to TennelleFlowers' "Riku is Gay" video and is not seeking to disprove that Riku is gay by saying he is depressed. I will not tolerate homophobia or bigots in my comments section thank you!**
I hope you enjoyed the video, and I hope it gave you some insight into how depression can present and how Riku combatted it in his own way! Riku's isolation is such an interesting habit that shows up throughout the series, and I hope it is explored more in the future titles!
This video would not have been possible without the help of these people:
- Xiryu, who made the thumbnail art for this! This piece was so well done and the style is unique and stands out so strongly! He helped me workshop the thumbnail composition alongside Mr. Matthews who helped with the font and placement! I couldn't have created it without them!! Give them a follow:
- I had a number of people help me during the scripting process, so a huge thank you to both Tal and ThoughtBubble who added their own psychology experience to ensure that I was on the right track with my ideas and presentation of depressive symptoms!
- Last but definitely not least, thank you to TennelleFlowers and Nikutsune who ensured that I was not creating anything that would be detrimental to the queer and LGBTQ community as a whole. I really wanted to make sure that this video would not be seen as a rebuttal to Tennelle's own analysis and they helped me make sure that happened. I am so grateful for their input and also their own insight into Riku's character that they gave while I was creating this video.
