Birth by Sleep I'm confused! O.O

I've seen countless videos on YouTube where players are fighting Vanitas' Remnant, but as Terra or Ventus. As far as I know, you can only fight him as Aqua because she's the only character you can play with at that time.
Am I right? Is it some kinda hack?
Or am I just missing something...? O.o

Thanks! :)

 

No you can use all three. Once you play all stories and the final Chapter he is available to everyone.

 

You can go back to your Terra and Ventus save files and play them again. There are some extra stuff afterwards. It isn't a hack.

 

I've already played all the characters and I've also done the Secret Episode.
Do I hafta play as Terra and Ven again and save after the Final Boss to have them available?

 

If you deleted your Ven and Terra files then you would need to at them all over again. If you held on to the completed files though then just load them up, you'll be back just before the last fight.

 

I still have all my files and they're all completed. I'll try loading em all up and checking. I'll let you guys know if I get it or not. Thnx for your help! ^^

 

Yeah, that is something you need to do. That endgame save will unlock him for you. Fair warning though...HE HITS LICK A FREAKING TRUCK!!!

 

Yeah, once you complete the final episode just load the save files and you'll be able to fight him as them.

 

And word of advices when figthing VR.

...use ITEMS, why? if you try and use Cure Magic, he'll heal himself, yes this a boss who can heal himself in a game!
Prepare your thumb for relentless pressing the Dodging Button cause you are gonna have to spam it like hell to even avoid his attacks.

And finally... use Mine Field Magic, it's your friend in this battle.

 

I bet they are very hard. Some members helped me out here.
Good Luck!

 

As a tip for fighting him with Terra, i actually had an easier time setting all commands to healing items and hitting him with dash and the demolition finisher (Which helps a TON)

 

I also thought this was a hack too. Interesting to know. :)
