This is me trying to be as unbiased as possible while comparing these two games, enjoy.
Plot-So, in KH1 the plot was sort of a mixture of a serious Final Fantasy story and a lighthearted Disney story, which isn't a bad thing at all. It had tragedy, conflict, and humor in the story. Sora was an interesting character with motivation to find his friends, and so were Donald and Goofy. While Sora was trying to find Riku and Kairi, Donald and Goofy were trying to find King Mickey. And the moment when Donald and Goofy betrayed Sora to go with Riku was heart shattering. And in the Disney worlds it was fun watching the banter between Donald and Sora, while seeing how clumsy Goofy could be. You really felt like You were playing through a Disney movie. Every world had plot significance in one way or another, and you were always eager to get to the next world. It was a fantastic plot that I loved. In KH2, it kind of ditched the disney aspect of the story to give more importance to the final fantasy aspect, which both added to the plot and detracted from it. The opening segment with Roxas was just amazing, it had Fantastic Pacing, and was filled with with interesting moments from beginning to end. But when the Sora part of the game came along, it kind of went downhill. Most of the worlds in the story weren't plot significant or interesting. It kind of felt like you were watching A disney movie rather than being in a disney movie. Aside from Timeless River and Disney castle, Donald and Goofy weren't really interesting at all. I loved them in those worlds, but other than that, they just felt like assets in combat. And as for Sora's character, this was the game that he started to become a pussy. He's way too nice, and doesn't feel like a real character. Aside from Timeless River and Disney castle, none of the disney worlds were really plot significant aside from the obligatory Org. XIII boss battle in every world. The only worlds with plot signifigance were those original to the KH series. I can honestly say the only disney character I really liked in this game was Maleficent, and I think this was her best appearance in a KH game. But I do think that The beginning segment with Roxas in Traverse Town, Hollow Bastion, and the world that never was had good enough stories to make the plot better in KH2. I just think that KH1 had the better disney worlds partly for that reason.
I will finish this thread tomorrow, but for now I need to sleep.
