2 people who know what they're talking about! Yay! KH wasn't a button-masher, it only was if you chose to just attack. Just like a fighting game, sure, you can spam a right hook, OR you can go a little deeper and do something more in-depth and trickier. Same deal with KH. KH's combat system is probably the best fast-paced action RPG combat yet, and they're mixing it with Dirge of Cerberus' targeting/approach mechanic, which altogether = awesome. Basically, think of Dirge of Cerberus' combat tweaked to perfection, with the fast-paced action of Kingdom Hearts, with the acrobatic style of Advent Children. I'm sorry...how is that not awesome?

Comparing fighters and KHs combat is absolutely ridiculous, but Ill bite. Fighters require button combinations, what does KH require? The X button. Fighters have depth in that aspect, KH doesnt.
You know what, the problem isnt even that all you do is press the X button, the problem is that all you have next to magic is the same combo string over and over and all you have to do to pull it off is mash the X button. If Square wouldve added atleast 1 more combo string with maybe the triangle button like many hack and slashes have I wouldnt be so hard on KH.
Is it among the fastest action RPGs out there. Sure.
The best? No, its too shallow.
People are so drawn off by the fact that the battles are so out there and balls to the wall crazy fast that they dont realize that all theyre doing is pressing X and occasionally jumping/dodging.
With all that said, KH is a great quality series, but it doesnt fair well in the combat department.
