His movements become increasingly more smooth, his attack style advances. The only difference here is that Kingdom Hearts 3 hosts literally every relevant character from all the previous games (all the villains and all the heroes) which is a new concept, Xehanort and Vanitas finally appearing in a Kingdom Hearts game after all these years.Īs time has gone on, and with each new installment, Sora grows progressively stronger and more powerful as a character. If you've played any of the previous Kingdom Hearts games prior to this one, then you'll already be accustomed to pretty much all the characters. Which is not what a review should contain, right? That's why I didn't add a "Story" review section to my review, as the game is still fresh and I want people to experience this game with as little knowledge of the plot and character actions as possible. The villains are, in my opinion, better than they've ever been, however, I'm a bit touchy when it comes to talking about the villains, as it will most likely enter spoiler-territory. The main hero characters are so entertaining to have on screen and to think that once you see those credits roll, your adventure with these characters is other is quite a sad thought. At this point, I'd say he's a really well-developed character, as he developed from a detestable mess to a great character, now that's great writing. But, in this game, I really like having him around. In Kingdom Hearts 1 I hated him, in Kingdom Hearts 2 he became more likable, but, he didn't really make up for the despicableness of his actions in Kingdom Hearts 1. I've always been quite the hater of Riku's character, but, he really managed to turn into a likable character in this game. Donald has the explosive personality of the group, which is comical, whereas Goofy tries to be more sceptical, despite his low intelligence. they're Sora's sidekicks and they're a blast to have around. I'm sure you all know of who Donald and Goofy are at this point. He cares about those around him, which isn't a rare trait for JRPG characters to have, but, you feel Sora's passion whereas with other game's protagonists- their actions and words can feel dead. You understand his character well, and you can't help but adore him. If you've played the other Kingdom Hearts games, you've seen Sora grow up, you've seen him mature and get better in combat. Sora is the main protagonist, and he's such an endearing character. Have course, one of the greatest things about Kingdom Hearts is how it has brought beloved Disney characters and Final Fantasy characters together as well the game's own original characters. If you decide to read this review, I appreciate your time. The great cast of characters within this franchise, combined with the excellent undertone and phenomenal soundtrack made me realise what I was missing out on all these years. I felt for the first time in years that the game was respecting me as a gamer, respecting my intelligence and respecting the fact that I expect a game to be fun. After I booted up Kingdom Hearts 1, a game that fell within a genre I had refused to try all my life (JRPG) I had an overwhelming feeling of happiness. The same developers who no longer care about making fun, well made games, but, instead, games that promote a political agenda, or games designed to milk hundreds of pounds/dollars out of you or your children with in-game purchases). It was my first experience with a Japanese RPG game (because I was a rather bias western gamer prior, only sticking to the same poor quality annual releases of western developers.


I recently opened up the gateway of adoring Kingdom Hearts last year with the 1.5 and 2.5 collection for PlayStation 4.
