Now that PSP prequel Birth By Sleep is out in Japan (and will undoubtedly arrive in the U.S. this summer), may we politely request that Square Enix stop mucking around with all these spinoffs and side stories and just get on with the damn story? The Kingdom Hearts series is growing into an increasingly convoluted mess which has less and less to do with its core appeal — Disney meets Final Fantasy — and seems increasingly bogged down with a bunch of literal nobodies defined solely by their boring black robes and tediously opaque schemes. We want to see this franchise get itself back on track, which is why we need to see some confirmation that KH3 is gonna rock. Which is to say, that it will have more Disney wackiness, less Organization XIII dopiness. The only “Dopey” we wanna see in KH3 stands about three feet tall and lives in a shack in the woods.
