I had to come to the realization a few years ago that the series has simply passed me by. Catching up on all the non-numbered games would be a fairly daunting task even if I was super-enthused to play them, which I'm not; the more I hear about KH's story outside 1 and 2, the less and less I become interested in the franchise (needless to say, sitting through a plot synopsis isn't going to rekindle my interest either). 2 was already starting to go off the rails in a bad way, but some genuinely fun / groundbreaking set pieces helped keep the game enjoyable. Can KH3 deliver moments that will wow my 35-year-old self the way the 1,000 Heartless battle wowed my 22-year-old self? Can I put up with whatever the story has become long enough to experience them? I honestly and quite mournfully doubt it.

Unfortunately, if you've only played 1 and 2 going into 3, I think it'll be just about impossible to understand the story.
