Why is this '& so forgotten?
'cause it doesn't add new content but Knuckles doing Knuckles stuff.
There isn't really much in Sonic 2 that works to Knuckles' advantage, whereas Sonic 3 has plenty of dedicated paths or tucked away secrets just for Knuckles.Whereas Sonic 1's level design arguably does fit Knuckles better.
I read a dev interview once where they said they were already thinking about lock-on technology when they made Sonic 2. Aren't there some monitors you can only reach with Knuckles? Not sure if I'm remembering right but I can think of at least one in the second level.
>>12695274>Aren't there some monitors you can only reach with Knuckles?Yes, but those were added in after the fact in the locked-on ROM.
because it doesn’t work on my everdrive
>>12695381Why wouldn't it? It's just a 32 megabit ROM like Sonic 3D Blast or Sonic 3 & Knuckles.
>>12695386I don’t know but that particular rom black screens every time. 3D Blast gives no issues.
>>12695260I had Sonic Classics where the lock-on didn't fucking work.
It really is the hard mode due to Rastafari's lower jump arc. The final boss requires a different strategy as it's not as easy to reach as with Sonic.Definitely a very cool con feature
1. Most people who play Sonic games want to play through them as Sonic.2. Sonic 3 & Knuckles, barring some minor dumb changes, is the ideal way to play the two games. It's more impressive comparatively.3. If you're playing Sonic 2 in Origins or Sonic 2 Absolute, Knuckles is just a character you can pick. Knuckles in Sonic 2 is a redundant artifact, essentially.
