Mikami called Kingdom Hearts an Aura purchase and it is just that. With its inane Gummi ship missions, below average camera, and pounding x alot combat. Kingdom Hearts delivered on one promise, Square wanted you to buy it and you did.
That was all that was promised, this melding of these two worlds FF and Disney would change games and entertain you. You HAVE to play it. Then they send you off the damn Alice in Wonderland world and you're wondering why you are playing it.
Personally I was stoked for it, I wanted it really bad, this game was going to dominate my PS2. Then I got it as a gift and I didn't even bother. The fun and excitement of ME getting it was gone. Someone stole my Aura Dora!
Just like Metal Gear Solid 2 and maybe soon 3, we are all lemmings for Aura purchases. For our next GTA, Metal Gear, whatever. We have to be there, we can't wait to rip the celophane off and fire it up. Screw the directions, we'll read them later!
Now I'm older and wiser and I still haven't got IN to Kingdom Hearts. Its just not what I was expecting. The reason for this topic is, why do we get so duped into getting Aura purchases? Or anything else you can gleam from my rant.
Edit: apparently the critics liked it enough!
