Forums - Gaming - Kingdom hearts is overrated

Yes, it is overrated. It is, nevertheless, fun, creative and a good idea all-together. I can't count how many people I heard going "Final Fantasy and Disney? They're kidding right? This is going to suck." who then loved the game once they actually tried it. Kingdom Hearts is overrated, but not as overrated as many other series in gaming.

I have to say I really don't understand all the hype around it....Some call it the best JRPG ever and the only thing you do in the game is pressing the X button whole the time...Yeah you have magic but how many times did you used that??....

Well, thinking of other JRPGs, I think in most you just press the X button all the time. Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Lost Odyssey(A button though). The only ones where you don't are the Tales-games. Star Ocean maybe, I haven't played them.
Sorry for double-post.

 



Kingdom Heart 1 was great, I liked it because (and this is going to sound like one of those "I did it before it was cool" cliches) it was an interesting mash up that EVERYONE expected to fall flat on it's face. The gameplay was a bit button mashy, but I liked the mythos and concept behind it all. It's the best game in the series (thus far).

I think KH2 is overrated. The Button mashing is horrendous (you can beat the entire game with just melee attacks, I didn't use a summon or magic (aside from cure) once. What made it worse was organisation 13, what a bunch of "nobodies" who didn't have much story behind them that wasn't presented in the game.

The Forms were pretty cool though.



indeed who gets the next kingdom hearts seems to be very important to people

over rated or not many people like this game and to be honest this is about the only that hypes up Kingdom hearts.

well as far as i know. so for the overrated factor i am going to have to say i disagree.



I agree. The first game is almost unplayable.



I actually thought KH2 was a better game than KH1. Sure it was easier (not by much though, neither is really "hard") but that's because Sora was a powerhouse now. But part of the reason it was easier was because they actually tightened and improved the controls and combat.

One of the things I hated about the first KH but didn't really realize until I played KH2 was that Sora slides all over the place when he fights.

kingdom hearts 1, the battle system was bad and the camera angle didnt help. it was too unorganized and clusterd together. luckily the seoncd game fixed this. you can switch the battle system menu and press triangle to open things instead of scrolling down to the bottom like the first one.

Dude, just push up once....saves a lot of time.

 



Hmm, pie.
