If he hadn't been cryogenically frozen, old Walt would be spinning in his grave. And what immediately awaits you when you arrive, via a sub-sub-Star Fox trundle through space? A fetch quest. You'll have to spend quite a bit of time in Traverse Town, a world between worlds, before you get to the first Disney-themed setting of Wonderland. Which naturally isn't easy when you can't see who's attacking you.Įven assuming you're a huge Disney fan who collapses into paroxysms of delight at the mere sight of Donald Duck and Goofy - who join your party in the early hours - it takes an age to get to the good stuff. It's particularly problematic in the early stages because Sora can't take as much punishment in battle, and with no defensive or cure spells, you'll have to find a safe place to glug down a healing potion.

Whether you choose the automatic or manual option, it will actively hinder you in and out of combat. Once you're accustomed to the idiosyncrasies of the platforming - after many, many instances of falling to the bottom of a stage and having to climb back up to where you were - you've then got one of the worst third-person cameras of all time to contend with. The dialogue occasionally verges on the trite, but an excellent voice cast really sells the story. Clumsy and unresponsive, it's a grating annoyance throughout, not least in some later sections that require a level of precision the controls simply don't allow. That's followed by not one but two fetch quests, the latter involving some seemingly basic platforming that is rendered inordinately frustrating by one of gaming's worst ever jumps (I began to think protagonist Sora's oversized feet must be to blame).

There's a series of multiple-choice questions which seem tangential to your quest yet which can lead to you inadvertently committing to a more difficult start. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that Kingdom Hearts' opening hours are dreadful, a glacial, tedious introduction that I'm amazed anyone managed to overlook a decade ago.

This was, after all, the unlikely crossover that spawned an enduring franchise - an action-RPG that, against the odds, managed to capture the hearts of two seemingly incompatible fanbases: Disney and Final Fantasy.īy happy accident, two of the games in this three-strong package are the only two Kingdom Hearts games I haven't played, and as a fan of Kingdom Hearts 2 and PSP side-story Birth By Sleep in particular, I was looking forward immensely to tackling the game that started it all.įour hours later, that enthusiasm had gone.

The "Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix" patch also addresses other bugs that Square Enix did not identify. Thankfully, Square Enix is quick to deal with the issue so "Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix" players should be able to switch to 60 fps without a glitch. One Redditor noted that shifting to 60 fps "messes up the physics" in both "Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2," which leads to certain bosses behaving "strangely, with one being almost potentially broken." Before this patch was rolled out, a bunch of "Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix" gamers took to Reddit to report this newfound problem. These issues are brought by the 60 frames per second (fps) support of the game.
