>There's a lot of that "corporate mandate" stink on the way some of the Disney worlds were handled
There was a pretty good thread on /co/ talking about this and the jist is all worlds had to have the input and final approval of the teams currently working with the IP at the time but the Big Hero 6 guys didn't really care and just let Square do whatever. Two Baymax's? Sure whatever. Meanwhile the Frozen team were near impossible cunts to work with because they didn't want it in the game and were jealous it would steal Frozen 2's thunder so they wouldn't let them do anything remotely interesting and forced them to do the full Let It Go number almost shot for shot. Toy Story's team meanwhile were a little too into it and insisted it be part of Toy Story canon, which means at some point between TS 2 and 3 the Heartless canonically invaded and Sora showed up to save them.
At least with the Tangled one they kind of tried to integrate Sora and friends, even if they overdid slightly by removing the tavern scene since it could have been fun having Sora befriend the ruffians from that place. Plus Sora felt like he actually had agency there, he was doing shit in the background to make sure the main plot succeeded while in Arendelle it feels like things would've gone exactly the same even if you never showed up. Yes the Corona cutscenes are taken straight from the movie often but you have plenty of non-cutscene interaction with Rapunzel and Flynn.
