I love this game so much...so fucking much bros only the Sonic levels tho
The knuckles levels are good too. Far better than in sa2. Also Gamma. Also breaking stages with Tails. It's a masterpiece.
wait, isn't that a first party title of dreamcast? So, not retro?
>>12472043>not retro>that memeSMOKE 'EM BOYS>>12472042yeah really only amy is sub par.
>>12472074shiet, i've stirred the sonic autists wasp nestfugg they sendin' bitcoin assassins and soiled diapersI mean... rooooooning around at de schpeed of soouund..
>>12472042gamma stages are the literal definition of filler
IT DOESNT MATTER NOW WHAT HAPPENS
>>12472074>yeah really only amy is sub pari think you need to address the giant purple cat in the room.
>>12472031I love all 6 "campaigns" so I guess you don't really love the game
Everything bad about Sonic can be traced back to this game.

>>12472176fuck off back to /vg/ idwfag
>>12472031What's wrong with Tails? He's literally Sonic but he can fly
>only the Sonic levels thoThere is literally nobody on Earth who prefers SA1 to SA2 without using this qualifier. Lmao
>>12472031This was peak Sonic for me. I could play the pinball mini game all day. I really dont care for 2D Sonic.
>>12472479nah id take adventure 1 every day of the weekadventure 2 fucking sucks even the sonic/shadow levels
>>12472031i wish Adventure 2 had hubs you can explore too
>>12472031I enjoyed the Big the Cat playthrough. I felt like I really got to soak in the atmosphere of the beautifully designed levels. I wish Dreamcast could have gotten a full length fishing adventure game starring Big the Cat.

at first I hate it, then I tried anything else "modern" sonic could offer, and after all, it isn't so bad. Sonic Adventure 2 is fucking shit tho
>>12472479Most of SA1 is fun outside of Big. SA2 outside of the speed levels is straight up dogshit
>>12473178The fishing rod controller for Dremacast was a big game changer for fishing games.

>Emerald Coast>Windy ValleyBy far my two favorite levels. Emerald Coast in particular really captures that late 90s/early 2000s feel.
>>12472092I willNEVER GIVE UUUP THE FIHIIIGHT
>>12472042gamma's gameplay is too braindead, i honestly unironically prefer eggman's mech stages in sa2 because those were at least slightly challenging instead of spamming B to win
>>12472092>>12473812the music in this game is unironically the best of any sonic game. Jun Senoue does not get enough credit for his talent.
>>12472479OP is obviously saying this because people say that about SA2, that only the Sonic (and Shadow) levels are good.
>>12472042I'll never get the appeal of the knuckle stages. Just playing as a metal detector. SA2 make these even worse with the nerfed radar and stages being pretty massive. Gamma stages are fun, they have an sort of arcade run and gun appeal of just blowing shit up in every direction and trying to get big combos. Would've been more interesting if the levels started with like 5 seconds and then had to quickly rack up points to add to the timer but you're given so much at the start you can practically finish the entire level without shooting anything. I didn't even realize this was part of the gimmick with Gamma until someone pointed it out.
>>12475883>I'll never get the appeal of the knuckle stagesYou load into the stage, you have to go from point A to point B to point C as quickly as you can, only point A and point B and point C are randomized every time you start the stage. You have to use Knuckles's (and Rouge's) fast movement and traversal options to narrow down where the emerald shards are as quickly as possible. Your score is based entirely on how fast you can do it.
>>12472090Big's stages are right there dude
>>12475967>Big has bespoke areas with completely new mechanics>Gamma's stages other than Hot Shelter are just trimmed down versions of Sonic's stages that are over in 15 seconds each
>>12472031This game is the epitome of trying to turn a small meal into a buffet. In reality it only has 11 stages. 10 of them are played in their entirety by Sonic while only 1 is new and original for the other characters (Hot Shelter with Amy, Gamma, and Big). So that means the other five characters all share the exact same 10 stages as Sonic but only use small chunks of the stages to compensate for their play styles. The hub worlds are used entirely to stretch the game length as well as the slowest characters (Amy and Big) end up being forced to traverse the biggest map (Mystic Ruins Jungle) just to give the illusion of progression without actually doing anything worthwhile. Then you have characters like Knuckles being forced to find stone keys in that same jungle maze (made worse in the original because DX at least gives you a map).Overall it's a game built to only play as Sonic, then they crammed all the other characters into it last second to pad it out because they realized the game would only be an hour long with just the Sonic stages.
