The best one?

Either they broke a good game and made it into a bad, not-fun game with KH1.5 for PS3, or I'm missing something. Like, it would have to suddenly have to get REALLY good after Alice in Wonderland (That's where I stopped playing) to justify it's reputation, and even then, NOBODY talks about how abysmally shit the entire game up to Alice in Wonderland is. Because that's what the game I played is. Shit.

Well for starters, 1.5 fixed the camera which was the largest issue in the game back in the earl 00s. They also made it more like KH2 from a UI standpoint, meaning the triangle button was used to open stuff. But Kingdom Hearts 1 is far and away the best one in the series with Birth By Sleep being number two. You played the first world after the tutorial bits. Kingdom Hearts 1 is a much more pure experience and the only time the game actually felt like a genuine collab effort between Disney and Final Fantasy because the game plays out like a Disney movie and the Final Fantasy bullshit bits were secondary. 

The sequels went more and more into Tetsuya Nomura's baffling narrative to the point where it ruins the appeal and theme of the first game since now it's all predestiny and prophecy and garbage bad JRPG trappings with gameplay that is as uninteresting as its core cast of characters. As the series has gone on all they've done is make incremental changes to the combat system while slipping further and further away from the heart of the series.

Pun intended.
