Didn't Nomura say that he would start working on kh3 after ff15 was near completion? Assuming that ff15 is then kh3 would only be starting development now. I believe it will run on the next gen luminous engine so the graphics will prob look nice in general. I think the figures you posted were for porting games to the ps4. It was from pc to ps4 I believe. I don't think thats the same as building a game from the ground up. Though, it still remains that the ps4 is alot easier to program for. This whole things depends on if they announce ff15 for 2014 release too, which I really hope they do. The gameplay mechanics prob are mostly figured out if they are using mechanics from the handheld prospect. With square, I'm never really sure when they release anything really. I had thought ff13 vs would have come out after 13, but instead we got -2, and lightning returns.


I hope I'm wrong and they do use the luminous engine and go all out, but I highly doubt it.  I mean SE is not in a good spot financially and I think they want to take as little of a risk as possible so I think they are gonna use more of a cartoony art style that will not require as much detail in the environments.  Don't get me wrong I still think it will look good, but not what is considered AAA calibar game.  Also Soriku told me the Osaka team is making KH3, not the original KH team which is making FF15, so I don't think the release of FF15 will have any effect on the release of KH3.  Also the Osaka team were the ones that made DDD so I don't think it will be hard for them to implement Flow Motion into KH3.  Now I could be wrong and the Osaka Team is not big enough and they are waiting for the oringal KH team to finsih FF15 and join in on development for KH3.

Oh, thats was just my assumption that most future se titles would use that engine. I could be wrong though. I guess they could be using some kind of modified engine from this gen kind of like the one that cod uses for next gen. Even if they do use the next gen engine, they might not flesh/max it out as much. I'm not sure a 3ds team can take on a full fledged title that is coming to both xbox one and ps4. It will prob be a collab like how ready at dawn that mostly did vita and santa monica are making the order 1886. Thats assuming like you said how big there initial team is overall though.
