I wanted to like this but was disappointed

The beginning of this game seemed really cool. I was like "alright this is going to be an awesome game." Slowly but surely, however, I was let down more and more. Don't get me wrong there are definitely some cool elements to it. These elements include more developed Disney worlds, some pretty cool battles, and a decent plot.

However, I would say two thirds of the worlds were actually exciting. The story was dulled down and wasn't given any theatrics to it, making the gamer not really care about what was going on. One particular boss battle just ticked me off where I couldn't move at all and was forced to hopelessly watch as Sora was hit continuously until he was killed. When making a game there's this crazy thing called "rules" that you have to follow. Maybe if this game had followed some rules it would be better.

Nonetheless, the plot wasn't too bad and there were a few cool spots such as... well not to give anything away, let's just say there is a braveheart-esque part in the game, which is amazing.

I really wanted to like this game being a big Square fan, and especially a big Kingdom Hearts fan, but I was just disappointed in the end.
