Last but not least, “Winnie the Pooh” is a controversial subject in discussions about “Kingdom Hearts 3”. While it’s an iconic franchise with a huge recognition, not just among Disney’s fans but in general, it might not fit the next game too well for various reasons.
The film doesn’t have a villain, for example, as it’s not a traditional kind of story – and then on the other hand, the whole approach to storytelling that we’ve seen in “Winnie the Pooh” so far just wouldn’t mesh so well with the way “Kingdom Hearts” presents its world in general.
Of course, Square Enix and Disney could put their creative minds together and come up with a more interesting way to implement Pooh and his friends into the next game, but we wouldn’t count on that. As we said above, it would be much better for fans to see that the companies are putting their efforts into promoting the more recent titles by Disney, instead of being stuck in the past.
