That is mostly a KH2 onward problem and maybe Birth By Sleep doesn't have an issue with it either I think. I absolutely loved KH1+2 when I was young and it always bums me out when people hate on the series. I should probably give them another go just to see if I get super confused by the story. I remember things mostly making sense at the time.
Its the other games that fuck it up too. Gametrailers timeline was almost an hour long and it still makes no sense.
But yeah, bought the PS4 versions yesterday and mainly enjoying it so far.
No, shit doesn't make sense.

if they continue this, they need to add jeff
KH2 is real nonsense time-travel levels of obfuscation but KH1 is fairly straightforward in terms of what does what, who is who, why are people doing what they are doing. I mean there's still like big dumb anime transformations and shit but it's not anywhere near the nonsense that 2 starts.

"anime as an abstract concept" is my current favourite sequence of words.
I'd say the end of KH1 is when it goes off the rails.

I can't tell either maybe just Brad isn't coming back? Maybe every week Brad, Jeff, and Jason will rotate? I feel like that won't make for great content though. The video isn't premium, which makes me think this was a one time deal.

It would be very GBWest to introduce a feature people get excited about and not record episodes for it so I am all for them living up to the gimmick.

A couple of notes for people who don't understand what those questions and weapon choices were about
The weapon choices determine the order of abilities you get, your starting stats and the max items slots you'll have. If you choose the wand, you'll get more magic focused abilities earlier and will have larger magic bar. The weapon you sacrifice will hurt you negatively in that area. So Ben chose to sacrifice the shield so you get the picture.
The questions that Tidus, Wakka and Selphie ask determine how fast you level up. Ben chose the dead of night option, which means he'll level slower up to level 50 but after that he'll level faster than someone who chooses a neutral path or morning path.

I feel like Jeff should've been on this KH feature.
That seems like the worst options to get during your first run of the game.
Yay!

It's a really stupid design decision to ask the player to choose things that will greatly impact their experience while giving absolutely zero context for any of it. That's one of my biggest game design bugbears, and practically every RPG used to do it.

I don't really have any interest in watching Ben play Kingdom Hearts, but after reading the responses here I opened the video and jumped to the end.
They did a little awkward end to the show, where they didn't seem to know how to close it and the end came kind of abruptly. Which to me seemed like they were filming a lot more after the 'goodbye' and were only 'closing' so they could cut the video into chunks.

If millions of kids can beat Mike Tyson then Dan should be able to.

But he did
and I doubt millions of anyone beat Mike Tyson
also dude this video has been on the schedule for days but it's still only 360p? what the heck?
The ending implies that, but the rest of the video hints at them doing more. So I would still assume they will do more.
It will be funny though if they make it to the whale and stop there. Since of the three times I tried to play kingdom hearts 1, that is ALWAYS the part where I just quit.

Playing this for 45 minutes on the first episode is kind of a joke.
Edit: Oh it's free.

They're both pretty great, the first one has To Kill A Mockingbird though

I'm assuming it'll be a rotating chair with Ben playing the whole thing, it's kind of weird they wouldn't just be upfront about it though.
They've been pretty explicit that brad will watch ben play the whole thing. Why do we assume a rotation chair?
And i really doubt this will be only one episode. They drop features all the time, but not that quickly. Given the length, i assume they've recorded a few at least.
