Thanks guys! This helps a lot!

Hi guys, I'm playing KH1 on my PS4 and absolutely loving it. I think I'm having even more fun now than when I played it the first time when the game first came out... trying to 100% this time by collecting all the dalmations and what not. Eventually my plan is to play all the games in the series (I only played 1 and 2 back in the day). Anyway, my question is this. When it comes to saving in KH1, I've been simply overwriting my same single save slot over and over. Today I noticed that there are tons and tons of save slots, like 99 or something, which I didn't notice before. Just wondering, should I be saving a new file each time I save rather than overwriting the same file over and over again? Is there any benefit to either method? Or is it more of a personal preference thing? Just making sure I'm not missing something that could potentially hurt my gameplay experience. Figured I'd ask the pros. Thanks for the help. P.S. I'm still pretty early on in the game (just beat Cerebus) so shouldn't be too late to change my save style if needed. Thanks again!

Hey guys, thanks so much for all the great responses! I can't tell you how helpful this is. I have decided to play in release order, basically going left to right from 1.5 to 2.5. I am still deciding between whether to play KH2 or watch Days first, as that seems to be the biggest debate right now, but I can decide later. I can't believe I have to wait until March to get started on this though! I am getting the entire collection on PS4, as I said before I don't have access to the other versions and I prefer to play in HD on my PS4 anyway. One follow up question though to all this. I am currently playing Unchained X on my iPhone. I don't really think it's ruining anything for me. I did play KH and KH2 when they first came out, and even though I don't remember much at all, I have at least a basic understanding of the premise. So I know Unchained X is an overall prologue taking place many years even before the events of Birth By Sleep, and before the Keyblade War. I am very much enjoying the game, and currently on story quest 223. I am just seeing the story as an overall introduction to the Kingdom Hearts Universe as a whole, and an explanation of how the universe got to the state it was in by the time Sora started his adventures. I understand certain things may have more meaning if I had played all the other games, but I don't think anything is being ruined. Anyway, my question is this. Because I need to wait until March to start my KH Marathon on PS4... how bad would it be for me to watch Back Cover when it comes out in January?! After all, I don't see how it can ruin much as it focuses on the main prologue. If anything, I could re-watch it after I play everything. But I always thought it was just an extension of what I'm experiencing in Unchained X. Thanks again everyone!

Hello Kingdom Hearts experts, I am very much looking forward to this bundle of 1.5+2.5 for PS4 as I absolutely loved KH1 and KH2, but never played the other games because I didn't have the handheld consoles. And since it's been such a long time, I pretty much forgot a lot of the story (I only played each game once when they first came out). I'm excited to finally be able to play through the entire saga and better understand the story, as I own a PS4 and can get this bundle. I have a question for you pros though. I have tried asking this question and have gotten a few different responses. As someone experiencing a lot of the story for the first time, is it best to play these games in story/chronological order? Or would it be better to play these games in the order in which they were released? Or is there some completely different order that is ideal for playing these games to their full extent? I feel playing in chronological order will give me a better grasp of the story/plot, but wanted to hear some opinions. I am a very linear thinking type person, which is why I probably lean towards the chronological order. However, I had also heard that it might be better to play in release order, as certain games hint towards certain things you aren't supposed to necessarily find out until later about the overall story. When I get 2.8 in January, will there be any part of it I can experience?! Or will I need to wait until the other games come out in March in order to play in the correct order? I hope I can at the very least watch Back Cover in January, as I'm currently playing through Unchained X anyway. Thanks in advance for the help! Appreciate it!
