Kingdom Hearts birth by sleep is a PSP portable game that feels really nice on that platform, and horrible when taken to consoles or PCs.
Me and this game don't have a good relationship, it opens Pandora's box for a lot of bad story and Lore.
And don't even feel good to play to compensate.
The level design is the same as kingdom Heart 2 very big but also very boring. It is giant combat Arena but compared to Kingdom Hearts 2 which had the best Combat system ever And fast movement, Birth by Sleep have non.
The combat system is very flody when you press that attack button it feels like an animation happens, but it doesn't feel fast it feels slow. And your character feels like they are stuck when they do it.
The game can Thanks it's Maker that combat commands and blending abilities together to get new ones is so fun, that the combat system is basically standing on that piller Alone. I get a good amount of fun out of leveling out comment abilities and then combining them to get stronger. It is a grind that I found very fun.
The story is fine on paper. But the characters are just not interesting and the villain is so obvious, that it becomes annoying when one of the characters talk to him. The dialogue and dynamic between the three main characters are just lame, are you can't make me believe they are friends.
And every time they try to answer why this this happening Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2. What is the reason soar and riku can wield the keyblade, I die inside because I didn't need it and these answers make it worse.
The music is good, I really enjoy some of the themes, and visuals for PSP game are amazing.
The voice actors are good, is just the direction They were given that are weird.
The 3 campaigns are an interesting idea, but it just makes it so that you played a game 3 times, and have to start from the beginning. If you want the whole picture.
It's not a game for me. There are a lot of the fans of this game, but I am not one of them. I am personally a Kingdom Hearts 1, 2 and chain of Memory, Enjoyer.
