Now in regards to the Aqua portion of the game, this is essentially the prologue to KHIII and pretty much the MGSV Ground Zeroes of Kingdom Hearts. The game is meant to connect to the story of Birth By Sleep to KHIII and of course the ending of DDD for those who have already beaten it. Yet it is also here to show us what we can expect graphically and gameplay wise from KHIII. The game is running on Unreal Engine 4 and you can definitely see a huge graphical difference between the KH games of past and now. From a gameplay standpoint, its a combination of Birth by Sleep and KHII. The magic gauge is the same as KHII, same goes for the d-pad menu, and the quick menu to easily use your magic and potions. It also uses the gauge thing from Birth by Sleep where you can hold R1 to lock on to a target and shoot a burst of magic or energy at it. All in all the combat is fluid and quick. Controlling Aqua is very fun and moving around each combat area feels right. The magic spells feel really powerful and are cool to use. The game also starts you off with an Aqua who is already at level 50 and the four magic spells are already in their third -aga form which is necessary since this is a keyblade master after all, so I like this touch Square Enix put here. One of my worries about the Aqua portion was that it could potentially be rather short. Yet with two hours put into it, those worries are being simmered down. Square Enix put in these things called up objectives where you need to do specific tasks, some combat related, boss fight related (these are especially missable), and story related. These essentially give the player more things to do. If I finish the the main story with 5+ hours put into it and still some objectives to do then the game is worth it in my opinion. Doing these objectives of course awards you with items you can decorate Aqua with. This is a new system for KH, one where we can actually dress up our character, that I hope makes its way into KHIII. It allows the player to add their twist to the character and just gives you more options and customization. So far I have enjoyed my experience in the Aqua portion and it just makes me more excited for KHIII, it gives me hope Square Enix can pull this off.
Now the package comes with an addition movie that I guess gives you the story of this desktop KH that came out in the last year or so. From my understanding it takes place even before the Birth by Sleep and I assume in incremental to the overall story especially in regards to KHIII where games like Birth by Sleep, Chain of Memories, and DDD are now very significant to the story. I like that Square took this approach so that these games are more than just spin offs, but are essential as well.
Overall, this is a great package. I picked up the Limited Edition which comes with two pins. It was the same price as the standard so hey, why not? The pins are pretty cool looking too for anyone wondering. Now the big question for some, is it worth the $60? Unless you are a die hard KH fan, then I'd say no. Though worth is subjective. If you base worth around hours you can get out of a game and you don't tend to rush through games, you can easily get 30-40 hours out of this whole package, which some $60 releases fail to do. That being said this game is certainly worth owning at some point for anyone who likes Kingdom Hearts. It is essentially the prologue to KHIII, highlights the gameplay mechanics we can probably see in KHIII, and has one of the best games in the KH franchise which is Dream Drop Distance. A game perhaps not worth it for some now, but worth it eventually.
Getting back to my review:
As someone, who has played the original Dream Drop Distance (Master Collection ed.), I'm digging these improved aspects on this remastered DDD. I'm only a little over an hour into the game on Proud mode.
+ Seeing and hearing the game on a TV screen is a big thumbs up.
+ More save slots
+ Faster loading times.
+ Skippable cutscenes.
+ Upgraded graphics, of course. Looks smooth.
+ Everything feels faster. Like, your walking and Flowmotioning (off of objects) got faster too. (P.S. to newbies: Yes, you can turn off your Flowmotion commands if you feel them to be too OP. Just wait until you progress a little further into the game.)
+ You can create three decks for your commands. I think that's the same as the 3DS version? I can't remember.
+ Links seem to be activated differently and a little easier to use compared to relying constantly on the bottom screen of the 3DS. Maybe, because I haven't fully gotten use to the PS4 button set up... Hmm.
+ You now have two ways you can pet your Dream Eaters. By stick or the touch pad. It feels like petting the DEs with the mini pad got a teeny easier and faster than the 3DS?
(Note to newbies: You don't have to maintain your DEs as constant as the Sun/Moon Poke'mon. They're a lot easier to maintain in my opinion. Don't worry too much about your DEs, but maintaining their happiness a bit will make them a little more effective, in battles, more than they already are. Basically. it's up to you. They can "die" in battle, but not forever.)
+ I've read that the Drop system has been slowed down so that's good for people, who haven't gotten a habit of drowning yourselves in Have-Me-Nots and Nevers. Word of advice though is that you definitely should buy a lot of Nots and Nevers. Abuse them. You'll find time really slow just by doing so. It's no different than using Cure or a Potion so why not?
There's not much else to say for a fun game that I enjoyed on the 3DS. I know I only mentioned a fraction of the changes from the original DDD.
As for 0.2 and BC, I'm leaving those two at the end. I'm making DDD the priority, while the KH3 prologue and UX movie are the extra caveat. ;) And, there's a Secret Movie too, I believe?
Happy playing, KH fans.
To the on the fence KH story followers, if you've never experienced DDD and the mobile UnchainedX games, 2.8 is a definite must. Its unique KHish title says it all: "Prologue". You'll need this for KH3. As for the people, who've played 3DS DDD --- at the very least, it's your choice on how to proceed.

En cuanto a la edición limitada, la caja que contiene el juego y el pin llegó un poco maltratada, no es gran cosa aunque a otras personas esto les puede parecer algo negativo. Como anteriormente dije, la caja trae el disco con el juego y un pin de muy buena calidad, esta es la primera preventa que realizo en Amazon y sin duda alguna haría otra.
リマスターのクオリティは高いと思います。
ただ、リバイバル作をやればやるほど早くIIIがやりたくなります。
