OH MY GOSH
I know, I said I wasn't going to post for a little while, but I'm at work with LITERALLY NOTHING TO DO. There's something about KH3D that I just realized. And maybe I knew it was going to happen, or understood that was going to happen. But it's still shocking all the same.
It's not really a spoiler since it doesn't involve the story so much as the way the game plays, but I'll put it under a spoiler link anyways.
[In regards to KH3D...]
I have played a total of 4 KH games now that don't involve Donald and Goofy as party characters. Granted, two of those games didn't have Sora as the main character, but still. I knew ahead of time that KH3D was incorporating a new twist on the fighting system that most of the handheld games have had (as in, incorporating all of the of the buttons instead of two). And I knew a brief rundown of the Dream Eaters, but I had no idea that they would make it THIS interactive. It really feels like NintendoDogs and Pokemon got together and had a baby, and that baby is the Dream Eaters.
Despite all of this, I really like how well the "link" ability works with the Dream Eaters. I love how they played off of Sora and Riku's capabilities (Sora fights with them and Riku takes their powers). I love the free-flow system. Interacting with the environment and enemies is really entertaining, though I'm not a big fan of switching between combat and stylus attacks. That part is kind of clunky for me, but maybe I'll get used to it the more I play.
I really didn't like the game at first. Switching between Riku and Sora in the middle of shit is really frustrating at times. especially when the switch happens in the middle of a story based combat (because then when it switches back you have to start all over). I'm glad they added the Drop-Me-Not items, but I haven't had a chance to use them because I really don't want to use up my attack slots for that.
I will be without kid and husband this weekend, so I'll be able to play KH3D until my fingers fall off. Cam will also be gone for two weeks with the National Guard. They are doing this thing called AT (I don't know what it stands for). But while he's gone I have to pack to move out. We have court for our eviction tomorrow, and we're going to be moving back in with his parents for the time being. It sucks, but at least we have somewhere to go. I just wish the complex would have worked with us like they said they would.
