Why did sonic have so much trouble entering 3D?
3D is mostly an hindrance for action gameIt just doesn't have the precision or the tight level design/intensity of 2D games3D is much more appropriate for exploration based game like Tomb raider or some specific genre like racing game or rail shooter (a type of games that play similarly in 2D)
>>12596403It didn't. It just doesn't play like Mario or a FPS so retards hate on it. Sonic 3D is the best controlling /vr/ 3D Sonic
>>12596403Sonic Adventure was decent. What came after was garbage though. Sonic Adventure was the last classic sonic game.
>>12596403Camera just wasn't refined enough at certain sections, especially when the direction you move is based upon how the camera changes and the direction you hold, and collision with the 3D environment.
>>12596420rail shooters are shmups failing to adapt to 3d
>>12596403The real question is why does sonic now have so much trouble leaving 3d?
Not retro but I don't wanna ask on /v/How's Sonic Frontiers?
>>12596420Then how do you explain extremely well received games like Devil May Cry or Ninja Gaiden Black?
>>12596614There is great 3D action games but they inherently flawed compared to 2D onesEnemies don't overlap in 3D beat em up which make crowd control much less satisfyingFinal fight and Alien vs Predator are better than those games
>>12596403>does a good job adapting the gameplay to 3D in the very first game>trouble
>>12596403holding right doesnt work in 3d. just makes you go in a circle.
>just hold right bro
Obviously it didn't if it got four pretty expansive 3D platformers in 7 years.>>12596574It's okay, 7.5/10
>>12597007You can hold right 95% of the time, just keep pressing A occasionally to jump over enemies or obstacles. This is a strawman.
>>12596574It's the best 3D Sonic game since Generations. Which means it's still a 7/10 at best.
>>12596403SA1 > Shadow > SA2 > Sonic Heroes. The series had no issues with entering 3D as the other anons said, my only complaint would be the camera in some of the games.
>>12597042so like a platformer then
>>12597042>just move right and jump when you need toWhat the fuck, I can't believe Sonic is a platformer...
>>12596403SA1 and 2 are great. Heroes is alright, and Shadow is the coolest.
>>12597000>>12597007kek
>>12596403Controls are fucking dogshit combat is extremely boring (literally press one button over and over again to win?) and the level design is uninspired trash and the characters are cringe ass retards that can barely string a coherent sentence together. The games are short and filled with 90% dogshit and only 10% actual fun and that fun is ruined by all the aforementioned problems. I genuinely have no idea what Sega and Sonic Team were trying to accomplish with 3D Sonic, it makes me feel like I'm losing my mind when I try to make sense of anything they did and continue to do with the series.
>>12596997I would literally rather play Croc than Sonic Adventure.
