Which is the worst Kingdom Hearts game, and why is it Birth by Sleep?

[Miketopus]

I am so frustrated with Birth By Sleep and its arbitrary difficulty spikes. Bosses that are unstoppable, and punish you by forcing you back a screen and undid the gauntlets of enemies you have to fight to get to them. Horrible wooden voice acting. A tepid plot that doesn't interest me at all.

Should I just skip this game forever? I am so frustrated with it and it is such an enormous drop in quality from KH 1 and 2.

KH3 is badly balanced, it has by far and away the worse worlds out of any KH game, music was as generic as it could get, next to no replay value, looked ugly and the game in general was completely unpolished. Not just the worse KH game one of Squares worse games period.

“KH3 is badly balanced”

It’s not. And are you REALLY complaining about 3 for supposedly having that when BBS factually has it?

Thunder/Fire Raid, Mine Square, invincibility when dodging as 2/3 characters…….

This has to be bait

I'm not so sure. It's shockingly common for people to say they like BBS or even prefer it to the numbered games despite how bad it actually is.

I think for a lot of them, they are (or were) children who play the games on beginner and button mash through, so functionally there was never any difference between a game like KH2 and BBS.

Personally, replaying BBS on Critical and fighting some of the super bosses has cemented it as being one of the worst games I've ever played.

BBS is fun sure.

But "balanced" is the last word I'd used to describe it.

BBS is the best one. The story in it was was convoluted, the battle system was a work of genius, the choice of worlds made sense and were well represented, music by far the best in the series, Aqua and Terra are far better far better companions than Donald or Goofy and all in all the game was just so well polished. It was the best game ever on the PSP and one of Squares games ever.

You have every right to your opinion, friend, even if I disagree with it in its entirety. It's all part of the rich tapestry we call life.

What an eloquent way of saying "it's ok to be wrong."

I'm playing it right now and honestly, my main problems are just Terra and the command board

Aqua and Ven handle so great. But Terra is just ass—he's so stiff, and his dodge is awful. Plus, the command board is soul-crushingly frustrating. If they improved both of these things, it would honestly be a much better game in my opinion.

As for the story, I think the plot involving our trio is fine. However, most of the Disney worlds are weak and forgettable, with barely any good villains or boss monsters.

As I'm fighting mysterious figure, I realize that BBS's controls are pretty bad. Having to rotate commands with the d-pad isn't easy to do without letting go of the left analog stick.

It's like the developers didn't imagine you'd ever have to move and attack at the same time, then designed an entire boss that forces you to spam dodge for 20 minutes straight.

Use the shoulder buttons instead.

I didnt even know you could use the dpad for command scrolling.

Oh, that's useful. Thanks you.

The d-pad was the only way to do that on the original PSP version since it had no triggers. I assumed it was the same in the HD version.

Re:Chain of Memories is by far the worst Kingdom Hearts game in existence. Screw this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ combat system with those stupid cards! It's the only KH game that I've played on Beginner, because I really suck at this card stuff.

Give it a rest BBS IS NOT unbalanced, it is one of the most balanced games their is, nearly as balanced as Street Fighter 2 turbo.


KH3 is all over the shop for difficulty starts of hard in the first 3 worlds and then get very easy and one you hit Arendelle. And that is one of the main issues because it starts out so hard it makes the rest of the game just a slog.

Not only that BBS has the best world in any KH game in Deep Space with one of the best ever boss fights. Command Board is a highly innovative and very well thought out system that makes the game deeper. The three main characters are awesome especially Terra. It looks good sounds great, it is well polished and by far one of the best ever action JRPG's made
