But if you look at speed runners using duck flare, limit form and trinity limit to do massive amounts of damage to the toughest bosses in the game you know that Sora has always had very powerful tools to fight with, it just became easier to use them.

The difference is that now you just have to press the fun button to trigger them. It was easy to ignore things like limits and summons in previous games because they were buried in the command menu but they made the game much easier in previous games as well. Then there is special attacks like attractions and combination attacks. So i don't think the game got all that easier, i think we got good by playing on harder dificulties in anticipation. I went on proud and it was super easy so i rushed to get a challenge on critical well, that was easy as well as far as the story is concerned. I recently played KH2 Final Mix and i was afraid to play the game on critical. I think this may be a product of people having played Kingdom Hearts so much over the years as well as new mechanics like attractions being automatic. is just unacceptable.ĭid Square sell out to Disney to appeal to a younger audience, which is why the game is so EASY? To wait 15 years and put out something like this. I want to love this game, but there are so many things standing in the way of this beloved series. Please let me know what your thoughts are. Is this really a 50-80 hour game?ĥ.) Did Square sell out to Disney to appeal to a younger audience, which is why the game is so EASY? Perhaps because you made everything pointless except the main story line. I see most people finishing the game and all that it has to offer in 25 or less. It's as if the game does not have enough for you to do and is trying to make up with it by drawing out how many hours you play with cut scenes, which leads me to my next point.Ĥ.) It was announced this game would take 50 hours for the main story and 80 to do everything.side quests etc. After Olympus they give you like an hour of goddam cut scenes. OMG!!! I get you can skip them, but then your missing the story. The game is trying to provide you with a ton of back story, which should not have been addressed by using CUT SCENES. The story is what helps you become drawn into the world. I want to know about and care about the characters.

Just saying.ģ.) Last, I get KH has a tangled mess of a story line, and a big part of me said. I would have loved to be able to have more areas in the ToyBox world. which leaves me with a linear super EASY world in which the only thing that is appetizing is the main story line.Ģ.) Kingdom Hearts has always been linear, and I feel the areas are fairly good for a linear game.BUT, would it have made sense to let us Explore and provide reason for this exploration in each of the nine worlds? You can only go certain places. Why Craft, Why Upgrade, Why Level, Why collect items, Why Explore?.

but not allowing the player the option to have a challenge EVEN with 3 different levels of difficulty makes MANY aspects of your game POINTLESS. If I pick the hardest level, it's my fault if I can't progress. BUT if you choose your difficulty and provide that as a game option, that now becomes the gamer's responsibility. Will the Critical mode be released as a patch? I get the creator did not want anyone 'Stuck' in worlds. Also, I get healing can be turned off as well.BUT, that just means having more Potion, Hi-Potions on hand. I don't want to turn that aspect off of this game. and you can turn off leveling for Sora, but I LIKE leveling. This really juiced me up for the gameplay.Īfter I made it through Olympus, I began to think about several things as follows:ġ.) Will I need to craft or enhance my Keyblades or will leveling even matter in this game, because the first world was just beat in about 2 hours including entire intro. I love the opening trailers and everything about how the game starts with you again on stained glass and how beautiful absolutely beautiful the intro of this game is. So many nods to the original and SO many things done right with this game. when the first hour of the game started, I was blown away. Also, please don't view this as complaining because I consider myself lucky to have another KH game to play. First, I will say I love Kingdom Hearts and as with many looked forward to this release for so long.
