Feels really good to play with Riku in a full game, and see his character development.
I really liked the gameplay and how the new areas are very vertical and big to allow explorations with the new movement system. Even on worlds visited before, everything is quite fun to explore. And the combat is the usual command system, but without merging them. It works.
The spirits are quite cute, though I thought that taking care of them was too much work (I did it anyway). I don't hate the fact that abilities are locked to them. But that also makes them dying a real pain (and a questionable decision imo), specially against post-game bosses.
The story is very confusing and with a handful of retcons. I did not like it much, specially with all the implications it has. Still, some of the elements presented here are necessary for the story of KHUX, which in turn I really enjoyed and made me quite excited to see what comes next. Because of that I consider the messy story presented here a more or less necessary evil.
