I'm barely in the first couple hours of the game, having woken up late and picked it up an hour after it was available. (Yes, I feel like a terrible, irresponsible person for leaving my beautiful, beautiful babies in that store for longer than they had to be. ;3; ) BUT! I already found three things that irk me about the new game. This is a thread for the unspeakable sin:
CRITICISM OF KINGDOM HEARTS II !!!
Here's the place to whine about what you don't like, and defend your favorite bits against people who don't like them! Consider this.... a verbal Struggle tourney! :3

and here are the three things I found to piss and moan about first:
1. They used the same video clips in Roxas' memories that they had in the first game, but they couldn't leave the original voices??? Aerith sounded ditzy enough the first time around- now they've gone and made her sound like a complete bubble-headed bimbo! And she isn't the only one! x__x
2. Why is Seifer a wigger now?
3. They pronounced it "Tee-dus" on Destiny Island in the first one, and now it's "Tie-dus!" Make up your minds!
Honestly, this game is awesome, pretty, shiny, fun and well worth the cash... but I'm a nitpicker. More to come as I progress, and hopefully more from the rest of you as well! :3

The first boss is way harder than the first boss of KH1. Its hard to beat it on level 2/3! xd I wish there was a way to level up Roxas, like you could do with Sora in the first game. They could've done that on the mini-game stage when you are trying to earn munny to get on the train to the beach, but man did I love the Mail Letters mini-game! That was really fun. The mini-game that I didn't like though, was the street-show one where you had to keep on hitting the balloon into the air, I thought that was too hard, because you would be on one corner, then blast it to the other corner and Roxas can't run fast enough to get it before the balloon falls. And to think this is only the beginning level...

(Pssst.. actually, there is a way to level him, although it's more tedious than it was in KH1... you can fight Seifer in the back alley for 13 exp a whooping.. but you have to leave the scene and come back to fight him more times.. it's a pain in the butt. ;_; )

One major nitpick I have: the music.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about Shimomura's composing. It's great. Especially how she manages to create pieces which correspond with the specific world's theme perfectly.
I'm talking about the synth operator; Ishimoto Takeharu.
Some of the songs sound so MIDI-ish; it's horrible. An example is "The Afternoon Streets"; the bgm which plays when Sora is in Twilight Town. I would have liked that song tons more where if it wasn't for the low-par synth, even if it isn't exactly a memorable or outstanding song to begin with. Thankfully, Shimomura's composing is good and some songs happen to have a better synth recording than others.
I'm wondering what happened to Yamazaki; the synth operator for KHI. I liked his work; in particular Traverse Town's theme was awesome. I'm thinking he's probably a freelancer or something...

I d0on't know if this is a nitpick, a peeve or just me being immature... and it really doesn't irk me, really, I just.. find it funny as hell.
SORA JUMPS GAY NOW. Every time I jump, I can almost hear him saying "Tra-la-la, WHEEEE!" The whole flinging his arms out and floaty descent bit is just too much. xD

((Have you noticed that us three all have the Mochi the Puppy item in the exact same spot. Coincidence? I think not! ninja ))
@Somniac: I wish I knew that before! But, I just found out that you can go back and forth through the doors that are before the first boss and fight Unknowns over and over again. Guess what I'm doing until level five? sweatdrop

Well, yeah, but at least he didn't try to "float like a butterfly" until AFTER he had High Jump.
PS- Doon, this isn't Mochi! It's Angelo! XP

I'm getting reeeeeally annoyed by the whole jig he does every time he unlocks a path from a world. I'm gonna start calling him Sailor Sora now.

Something I really disliked.
Was the lack of female participation in KH2. Most of the females from the worlds have to be protected or saved or stand behind men and whine. It bugs me. D: Immensely.
