Its interesting that all these years I've hated Kingdom Hearts and never played it because the disney stuff, and then I played and enjoyed the game finally and was willing to give the Disney stuff a chance, but then the Disney stuff is still definitely awful (except Donald Goofy and Mickey) and somehow the cheesy made up bullshit original stuff is the most compelling and I really liked it. Weird game but its kinda fun

The original KH has so many good things going for it, but its clunky gameplay, unskippable cutscenes (practically everyone I know has memorized the Riku-Ansem cutscene from dying to him repeatedly, he's a tough asshole), and sometimes vague hints on where to go to progress the story, has caused many to not like it as much. I usually end up playing the Final Mix version on the PS4 (It's part of the Story So Far collection), and while I didn't die at all last playthrough, being able to skip the cutscenes is a godsend. I do have to admit that I do like the exploration and platforming that this game had as well as the original storyline concerning the Disney villains, although the platforming's usually the part that makes me frustrated as hell whenever I actually play through. Hope you enjoy the next games!
