It helps make the repetitive structure much easier to enjoy, as some of the one-liners had me chuckling along. Sora, Donald and Goofy’s chemistry is, put simply, adorable.
You would think repeating this formula eight times over would be a chore, but this is where Kingdom Hearts 3’s narrative actually pays off. One Gummi Ship ride later and the process starts all over again.
You fight a small army of Heartless and/or Nobodies, take on a grand boss and then the Organization 13 member blasts off again. Here we find that Aqua, the main piece of the puzzle behind where Ventus and Terra are, is in a part of this dark world not even King Mickey wants to traverse.Įach Disney world you visit follows the same structure: Our three heroes visit a world, meet the locals and a member of Organization 13 appear acting like a campier Team Rocket. Their journey takes them to the dark world – a familiar territory to those well-versed in KH folklore. In the meantime, King Mickey and Riku are on their own mission, trying to find the missing pieces of the seven Keyblade Masters of Light, namely, the three protagonists of Birth By Sleep: Aqua, Ventus and Terra. Add Maleficent and Pete to the mix in finding a mysterious black box, along with Organization 13 trying to stir up trouble, and our three warriors have their work cut out for them. It all goes to pot fairly quickly when the Heartless turn up in droves and Hades unleashes the Titans. Set after the events of Dream Drop Distance and 0.8 A Fragmentary Passage, Sora, Donald and Goofy have set off to Hercules Coliseum in order for Sora to learn the power of waking, which is keeping him from becoming a Keyblade Master. The story starts with a bang already a huge improvement from the second game. This shouldn’t be perceived as a negative: Kingdom Hearts 3 was certainly well worth the wait, but a few pacing problems with its story and a few steps back in explorative gameplay hinder this game from being perfect. I say fork in the road because I don’t feel this was truly the end of an era just yet.

After thirteen years, a series of spinoffs, HD revamps and everything else Square Enix has thrown at us, we have finally come to another fork in the road for one of gaming’s most beloved franchises.
