Current Events > What happened to Goofy in KH2?

(+) Yeah! (+)

He was the MVP in KH1 with his MP gift support ability. In KH2 I see literally no reason to keep him in my party if I have options. He has a small amount of crowd control that I appreciate, but most guest characters do too or have other enticing gameplay elements in their place.

He lets you use Valor form and learns Lucky Lucky earlier than Donald. Those are the only reasons I've put him in at all in my latest playthrough.

I didn't find him completely useless or anything, but everyone else has a limit, except Donald, who can cure you.

I mean, I don't think Donald and Goofy have limits, but it's been a long-ass time since I last played, and I've only played vanilla.

They do. I don't remember their exact names, but Goofy has Teamwork and Whirli-goof, and Donald has one where he shoots magic shots and one where he shoots rockets. And SDG together have Trinity Limit

Goofy's limits were crazy OP in the original but I think they were nerfed in the remasters

Donald and Goofy each have two limits, not counting Trinity Limit. But it may or may not be worth wasting their AP to equip them.

Ah ok, I must have remembered wrong then.

Yeah maybe that was it; I just tended not to use them because they were expensive.

Most guest party members also have Auto-Limit equipped by default, so if you're used to using them that way and didn't bother to spend the extra 1 AP on that, you may also just forget to use Donald And Goofy's limits.

Donald's limits are actually super broken. Especially Duck Flare.

But yeah KH1 actually feels like you're battling as a party. Like those Olympus Coliseum challenges where you have to fight alone - you actually really notice their absence. KH2 is kinda just Sora battling everything alone while Donaly and Goofy meander around you. And you only notice they're not there because you arbitrarily can't use forms unless they're there.
