The problem for first time players like myself, playing the 1.5+2.5 remix on ps4, is there is such a drastically large gap in the combat systems. After spending 30+ hours playing, grinding, and beating the secret bosses, then playing with cards is just....fucked It just takes away from the story and everything else trying to readjust to the combat. I know for me I'm just trying to get through and ready for KH3, I really enjoy spending time playing and grinding in kh2 and plan to do everything boss again

@@elementcuatro584 I blame the *original* team that thought this game was a good idea in the first place.

I play for adventure and to feel like a hero, and I couldn't stand more than 30 minutes of re:CHain with it's cards and grind and random shit.

No problem! :) And it really depends, timeline wise it's KH1, COM, 358/2 then KH2. But most say to play them in order of release which is KH1, COM, KH2 and 358/2. This is because 358 gives aways some of the mysteries for KH2 so that's what I'd recommend, either way I'm sure it's enjoyable.

The main thing that bothers me is that battles dont take place on the field screens. You "encounter" enemies like in typical JRPG's and then the game has to load up a separate battle screen. The loading required and that transition is very jarring and disruptive to the flow of the game. The great flow between exploration and combat is something I really liked about the 1st game so its especially disappointing to me.
