Unfortunately most of the spin-off games are really important to the story lol That's kind of dumb but I'm not sure how you're supposed to understand the story in KH2 without playing Chain of Memories  which introduces Organization XIII and characters like Naminé. 358/2 Days also helps so much to understand Roxas and Organization XIII. Birth by Sleep will be really important for KH3 so again you can't really skip it. You can skip Coded though because it adds nothing new.

Well, I didn't understand the story in KH2 at first. In the first part of the game all I could think was 'This is great and all but where the f*** is Sora?'. Org13 were an enemy so easy to understand but not the rest. It made me dislike Roxas, his entity and design as a character, I had no concern over him or his plight as he wasn't Sora, and in turn also dislike the design used in Ventus. Why did he have to look like Roxas? Was he Roxas (this thought before playing the game)? Whole thing is studid. 

I plan on skipping them all (other than BBS which I've played), I have no interest in bullcrap spinoffs when I want the main series. One of the reasons SquEnix are annoying me. They really are trying their hardest not to release main series games and make everything a weird franchise. Look at FF13, it wasn't just 13, it was going to be that Nova Crystalise Whatever compilation, which all got canned and now is only 13 plus 2 sequels, vs13 as 15 and Agito and Typo-0 which are related but not (I dunno)? They are doing the same for 15 now, with an anime and an film. It's too much. Just release the bloody games.

 

.... rant over.

Yeah, if you skip any KH game thinking that it isnt important you are going to be a bit lost in the story.I also did the same(Played KH2 right after KH1 without playing Chain of Memories first) and was pretty lost for a good while in the game.Eventually I went back and played KH COM but yeah, it sucks going in without knowing whats happening.
