Yeah, like Soriku was saying, I'm pretty sure it'd be hard to piece together KHII without seeing any KH1 stuff at all :3

It's worth picking up number 1 anyway^^

I think you'll be okay.

For the record: I haven't played Kingdom Hearts 2



the story in kh2 doesnt depend on too many things from kh1, but ull be missing a few things that stand out. the game assumes that you know characters, the world stories (each world has a story and some are continued in kh2), and some enemies. i think i favored kh1 overall, but the battle system in kh2 is so ridiculous that it might be hard to go back after kh2.

also u should get COM. it explains the antagonists a bit, a side story (a very important one), and a specific character that would otherwise make u completely confused about her.

You'll definitely want to play KH1 first. It's a Player's Choice game, so you can find it for about $20. You can technically get by and understand KH2's events on its' own, but a lot of things won't have any real meaning to you without the background.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Both game have there pros and cons

In terms of story:KH2>KH1(not that KH1 had a bad story)

In terms of gameplay:KH2=KH1(though KH2 was made a little to much on the easy side)


Both games are excellent but you should play the first one first. It will make the story in KH2 make more sense and less confusing.

 you should probably make it clear that although  they seem similar they have various nuances that make them each stand out.  im not going over them because:  a) they need to be played  b) they are really small, but a lot of them

 i thought the story of kh 1 just had this magic that was not completely repeated in kh2 mostly due to it not being the first in the series.  the battle system in kh1 had a better use of magic, was tougher, and more balanced.  kh2 had a more devloped battle system (its really great once u get into it).  kh1 had problems with the camera and making you grind too much.  kh2 had problems with difficulty or lack there of (i died twice outside of going to a world that was too hard.  both were because of transforming into a semi luck based thing that completely gimps u).

 important note:  sephiroth in kh1 was better

Again I say, KH1's story is by no means bad. I just felt that KH2's story was a little more developed

KH2's story was emo.

Now KH1...that's a good story :) I want KH3 to be more like KH1 than KH2.
Is a game's story being emo a bad thing?
