So I’ve played this twice, and had VERY different experiences.
The first time was in my first kingdom hearts full series marathon.
It started out great, cool story, but the gameplay was… eh. I liked it, but after a time it got grating. And I made the mistake of watching the Disney world cutscenes.
DO NOT WATCH THE DISNEY WORLD CUTSCENES. THEY ARE LITERALLY JUST THE PLOTS OF THE RESPECTIVE WORLD IN KH1. NEVER WATCH THE DISNEY WORLD CUTSCENES. EVER.
I stopped playing after a while and just watched the cutscenes before moving on to kingdom hearts 2. Didn’t even touch the Riku stuff.
Then I played it again.
On my second kingdom hearts full series (eventually, I stopped in the middle of birth by sleep. I’ll finish eventually!!! Just when I have access to my ps5, so probably in the summer LMAO), I played on regular difficulty, skipped all the Disney cutscenes (but not the other stuff, that’s really good), and pushed through the tedious combat. But then I eventually… started to like it? And then I started to… love it???? Turns out once you get a proper build going, this game’s combat is really fun! It’s just the deck building part I hate. In any case, beat the game, feeling good, I start playing the Riku stuff and FALL IN LOVE. It removes all of the deck building AND DISNEY CUTSCENES. The story is also really cool and I love Riku as a character. Seeing Mickey and Riku becoming besties gives me life.
Anyway, big up this game, it’s good, maybe I’ll play it again sometime. Definitely the marmite of the series though.

This game is a miracle. This game is a triumph. This game is a gem. If it weren’t for 7 rebirth literally releasing this month I’d say it’s hands down the best remake of the year.
If you’ve ever played a persona game, if you’ve ever wanted to try persona 3, please play this game. It’s the fastest selling atlus game ever for a reason.

I think it’s safe to call this my favourite roguelike. Sure I’ve played spelunky 2 more (pandemic moment), but if I go back to that I can’t get past the first area. Risk of rain is like riding a bike. You never forget. I can jump in and have a whale of a time. The concept of an item based roguelike where every item stacks infinitely is so good that it unironically makes isaac unplayable. This game is so good at what it does it’s a genre killer, because it just makes me wish I was playing this. The only thing that can stand a chance is risk of rain returns, but even then it doesn’t feel as good as this. True MASTAHPIECE
