KH3D Who do you like playing as better? Riku or Sora?

[Mystics Apprentice 2,397]

Riku, for several reasons.

 

1) I like his character better.

2) I liked his story better.

3) I liked some of his commands better.

[KingdomHearts3 2,591]

I can't choose since I have them both on level 99.

[Junko 2,815]

Riku since im always used to playing sora in other games. Just nice to do a different character for a change

[PublicLibraryx 55]

Probably Riku. I like his dream eater link forms. Dem Combos !

Same here

Riku felt like a dark Aqua to me.  I also never got to play COM and played KH2 first (where riku wasn't as relevant as KH1) so I never formed that fangirlism or anything for him.  Sora is tradition to me.  I just wish they didn't make him seem like a dimwit to make everyone else seem more collected in this game.

I liked playing as both. But I enjoyed Riku's fighting style more.

Dat Dark Splicer.

[Marth 338]

Riku. Why? Simple. We always played as Sora in every game. I mean yeah we played as Riku in Days in Mission Mode, but he was not that good to use. And in CoM, he was basically overpowered, but in DDD, he was a powerful character, but not killing everything in 6 hits. Plus, he was better than Sora at pretty much everything.

RIKU THE MERMAN!!!!

[Azure_skyye 5]

I preferred Sora simply because it just feels like kingdom hearts more.  I mean after playing as roxas, ven, aqua, terra and data sora its nice to coem back to proper sora

I will admit that riku had better commands but Sora just feel smuch more like kingdom hearts.

[TheOriginalBob 110]

Dark Aura... that is all.

[XIIIBlades 0]

Riku, because he has an awesome command deck.

[Austin Ogoffa 2]

I like Riku better, somehow it felt akward with young Sora again.Riku however I really didn't mind,..especially sentences from so like: "wow that's so unfriendly" he made in the grid annoyed me.YES sora villains are EVIL guessed you of all people'd know that by now.. :|

Totally agree,  I also wasn't too fond of Sora's costume change. It looks amazing in 2D (the drawings) but i'm not feeling it so much in game. Riku's new outfit I absolutely love, he even got a new haircut!

 " I just wish they didn't make him seem like a dimwit to make everyone else seem more collected in this game." Could you elaborate a little on that part please?

They basically made him reverse mentally, he was able to put 2 and 2 together in KH2, and now in order to make Riku seem more knowledgeable, collected and wiser they made Sora look as if he got brain damage, unable to think clearly and coming off as dangerously clueless.  

[DreamDropDragon 16]

Sora, just because I prefer him over Riku..he's more cute!

Oh yeah you're absolutely right now that I've thought about it. I mean if Sora could figure the nonsense that was going on Castle Oblivion, he should be able to know when he's dreaming

Honestly, I preferred playing as Sora more even though Riku is my favorite character and I was so excited to actually play as him in this game! I feel like Sora's game play felt more natural and whenever I played as Sora, I felt way more comfortable.

[Keyblade101 526]

They're both great to play as.

[Demyx. 10,064]

Riku. He's just SOOOO much better.

[Hiraii 8]

I prefer to play as Riku a little bit more  for 3D only because he's a little more agile and more fun to play with. Still love Sora though

[Lily Rosè 0]

I'm a Riku and Sora fangirl so I can't really choose

[TabooNoiseNeku 1]

I'm gonna have to say Riku. For me it's easier to play with Sora for some reason, but I like how Riku's moves look

[The Transcendent Key 12,109]

I prefer playing as Riku because I've always had an affinity for characters that have the powers of Darkness or have internal conflicts with themselves.  And simply because he's awesome.  I mean seriously, Riku is a badass!  And he saved Sora from slumber!  Sorry Sora, but Riku is my choice.
