Personally, I thought Atlantica was the greatest world the original Kingdom Hearts offered. It introduced a whole new way of combat and movement, and you really had to think in four directions most of the times. I'm also a huge fan of The Little Mermaid and the characters, especially King Triton.

 

Which brings me to the question why there has been so little love for Atlantica since the first game.

 

Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories: Triton makes no appearance, whole story is lame and worst of all, Sora Donald & Goofy do not turn into their aquatic forms.

 

Re:Chain of Memories: Exact same problem, and also no voice acting (which goes for most of Re:CoM btw)

 

Kingdom Hearts II: While I love the "Under the Sea" performance from Sora, Ariel, and Sebastian, the rest of it was just lame. Seriously, what the hell?

 

And since then it never made an appearance again. We've had 365/8 Days, Birth By Sleep, Coded, now Dream Drop Distance, no Atlantica at all, in none of them.

 

Why is there so little love for this amazing world under the sea?

For KH2 it was The controls and the annoying songs. Kh1 it sorta of was okay. I think KH3 should not have this world in it.This would be one of the worlds that would be #1 on my least favorite worlds

Man, I can go on for ages as to why I hated Atlantica. But i'll keep this short and simple...

 

Well, first off the controls for KHI were very clunky and not easy to use, especially with the messed up camera.

I was ok with it in Chain of Memories since it was basically rooms just like with the other worlds I had gone through in Castle Oblivion.

But once KHII introduced the songs, I just felt like ripping my ears off. x_x

the songs were incredibly irritating, so irritating I lowered the TV volume to 0 so I wouldn't have to listen anymore of their "Finny Fun".

 

So, yeah these are the reasons why Atlantica is my least favorite world in the Kingdom Hearts universe.

I recently just played through KH1 again, and found Atlantica to be alot easier to navigate than I remember, and combat wasn't that bad if you effectively use magic and lock-on.
