2.8 has 2 games compared to 1.5+2.5 which together have 3 full games.

2.8 has Dream Drop Distance and BBS : A Fragmentary Passage.

Dream Drop Distance is a full game. BBS: AFP originally was released with 2.8 on PS4 as sort of a "Tech-Demo" for KH3, and covers the story of one of Birth By Sleep's Main Characters after the end of that game. As such it's only going to likely be a 15-20 hour game. When I played it on my PS4 years ago, it didn't take me long to finish it, though I didn't go for collectables or anything.

Dream Drop Distance on the other hand is a normal game, not as long as KH1, especially not KH2, or KH3, but it isn't really what I'd consider short.

1.5 and 2.5 together have FOUR full games (1. 2, Re:CoM, and BBS).

i recommend you try the all in one collection, Or at least watch the cutscenes or gameplay on youtube if you don’t plan on getting 2.8

Exactly.... Fantastic answer.... I was thinking that too...

Thing is, DDD is essential for understanding anything going on in 3.

Its on the same level as BBS in terms of importance.

But by the time you complete 1.5+2.5 it should be in some discount.

Sure,
Borrow it from a friend, buy it cheaper somewhere else. Watch a longplay.
but I do not recommend wasting that much money on this product. It is a predatory model

yes its a demo, 3ds game, and a movie, this collection is not worth any money. Just get 1.5+2.5 and kh3

I've read a summary of what each contains several times in multiple topics and it's still confusing. It sounds like the full bundle is the obvious choice unless someone is really iffy on whether they want all of them. To me, if 2.8 is shorter it sounds balanced out by 1.5+2.5 having four games.

And I really don't think the rumored price of $100-115 is too much for six full games plus BBS : A Fragmentary Passage.

I will watch 2.8 longplay

2.8 is 1 full game. Which is a 3DS port for consoles. The other "game" is a glorified tech demo for KH3 and even then some aspects didn't even make it into 3 anyways like spells having combos and effects on the world like Blizzard making rails you can skate on.

Watching longplay should be enough

Just be sure to do the math when the prices are revealed. It's very possible the bundle will make it little savings to skip it.
