Soon as I played KH2 as I was much older by that time and most video game plots seem ridiculous. childish. or contrived to me at this point. My problem with KH3 is it just feels awful to play.

Theres 2 parts to KH.

The plot. So what most would assume to be the "story". So "real Ansem" from KH2, time travel from DDD, and other such reveals and twists.

And the character arcs. Which is the part that usually brings people in, even if they dont notice all the time.

So while the plot is doing the usual "kingdom hearts crazy" that you should just expect at this point (its been over 20 years since KH1), the Character Story is still going pretty strong.

After KH2, when they released all of the handhelds stories. that really ruined everything for me.

reading these comments, lol imagine not caring for the story/plot

i thought one of the "fun" parts of this series was visiting the different themed worlds based on different Disney stories.
I onky ever played KH1 and 'H2. None of the handheld games, which looked more like spinoffs than main titles. .

i'm just wondering where Sora and the gang are gonna go next, Star Wars World? Marvel Comicsland? Spaceship Simpsons?

i hate it all already

yeah, that's the show i was trying to think of "Zack and Cody" , i was trying to remember that one and kept thinking "Drake and Josh", but that was Nickelodeon and all those are way past the time when i stopped watching nickelodeon.

i'm from back when we had Rugrats, Ren & Stimpy, Doug, Rocko's Modern Life. (all Nickelodeon). .i'm old enough to know that the "slime fountain" at Universal Studios was a reference to You Can't Do That On Television

the handhelds are connected to the main game, so is the mobile

BBS.
Though saying i stopped is erroneous, it's more like my mind doesn't want to include BBS, Days, Coded and DDD.

but the lore, plot story they are all connected

I love how they snuck in Axel's displeasure with the plot at some point when he says none of this even makes any sense anymore. A nice 4th wall break there.

It's just like when they snuck in "Kajima forever" into one of the solid snake games after he was let go.

KH2, specifically when they tried to continue the plot after KH2 despite what was a perfectly serviceable ending to the series. The Big-bads were gone, Organization dismantled, Even Maleficent had a heel-face turn. Sora fulfills his promise and is finally back on the island with his freinds, and even keeps in touch with his new Disney ones. He finally makes it to his mom's dinner.

BBS upends the entire premise in taking what was a neatly wrapped up story and forcing it to continue. All of a sudden the big-bad's back, there's a new trio of frankly not as likable "freinds" to learn about, and a bunch of new lore points that were never so much as hinted at before are forcefully inserted to provide new plot hooks the story didn't need and never referenced before. Plot hooks we end up having to explain away with theory and fan-canon, such as why Maleficent, Donald, Goofy, or Mickey develop total amnesia about Terra, Aqua, and Ven. Especially Donald and Goofy, who know nothing about Keyblades in KH1 with Sora despite Mickey possessing one and having personally met multiple previous Masters in BBS.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the games since KH2 and more KH gameplay is usually welcome, but to me the original story ended a long time ago. What we have now is world-building exercises at best, not a clear plot-line to follow.
