Flawed, and I didn’t get everything I wanted, but at least it’s here.

Really great! Let down by some pacing issues right near the end, but it's a really confident game that captures a lot of what makes the original so beloved.

Not perfect, but pretty satisfying. A technical stunner as well.
Story gets wacky af at the end.

3.5 for "when's 3.5 ReMix" :^)

In all seriousness, I don't think any of the worlds capture the magic from previous titles, but it's still a good game, and hell if the whole ending isn't great.

Fantastic gameplay and pretty middling story. There's effectively no story at all until the final couple hours, in which they wrap up nearly every single loose thread like they forgot homework was due that day. Overall fine enough and excited about where the series is going.

Despite all it's shortcomings, the finale (especially the 4 hour boss rush) had me consistently crying. By the time don't think twice hit it's second half and Kairi was alone, shit just hit me hard. I've kept up with this series since it's inception and I have changed so much in that time, lost touch with so many friends, went to college etc.

It just strikes a cord with me that only this game (series in general) has.
