It's a game full of great qualities that's brought down by problems that games in the ps2 era figured out how to fix.
Pros:
- World is well designed and wherever you go there is always a little something to do
- Story is enjoyable, nothing special, but good
- Good humor
- It's beautiful. This game has a really good art direction
- It's fun for the most part

Cons:
- The wannabe rpg elements don't mesh well with the Action game DNA in the combat
- Shit camera, I don't need the camera shoved up his ass the entire game. It really doenst work well. And no, the arrows are not a good fix. Just give me a proper camera angle!
- Too many sections where you're forced to walk slowly (it gets annyoing fast)
- This game has around 5-6 unique boss fights, and that might be a stretch, everything else is the first boss reskinned. IT IS NOT FUN
- Having some enemies that are supposed to be fought with only one weapon and not the other. Limiting your choices is never fun in these kind of games

It is a good game that is worth a play, but it is no masterpiece, not even near one. The sequel if it does just a couple of adjustments might be a truly great game.

Not as good as the games that came before or after, but not a bad game by any means. In a lot of ways this game pushes the series foward. It brings back platforming through flowmotion which is a new a central mechanic to this game that I like very much. This mechanic not only expands the ways in which you interact with the world, but also the ways in which you fight you enemies. This addition along with the more open areas and unique gimmicks make the worlds in DDD feel more unique and interesting when compared to the hallways in KH2 and in BBS. The biggest problem with this game are the boss fights. It really has the worst bosses in the series by a huge mile and a lot of the enemies feel very samey. Which is a shame for an otherwise very creative game. Even when the game fails at executing a mechanic you can still appreciate the concept at some level. I guess I'm more forgiving towards this game both story and gameplay wise because I know what came afterwards and I like it very much. It's still a good game like most KH games. It just has couple annoying problems.
