    Most Knuckles fans want the return the "Tough Guy" from SA2, the "Big Brother" from Heroes, even the "Straight Man" from Sonic X; But I think his contemplative and introspective personality in Adventure 1 is also a great take that should be brought back.

I actually started with the Classic games believe it or not around 2003, when I was a kid. I still enjoy aspects of the Adventure games, but I don't hold them in high regard either. I like Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles in SA1, and the Sonic and Shadow levels in SA2, but the rest of the gameplay styles are just kind of meh for me.

    Also, as for the Knuckles criticisms, I have a couple. One, the digging does not always work properly. Mapping it to A and B was bizarre, and it works way better in SA2. Also, Sky Deck is just not fun. The gravity switching makes it hard to control. Other than that, no real complaints.

      Never mind that Cream's bound with Chao would totally put Chaos assessment into perspective as she and cheese could properly talk him down especially given that the in universe reason for the Station Square Chao garden is to be a protective habitat for Chao showing that the dominate species did a 180 from Tikals time.

      @rynobehnke8289 3 года назад +3

      ​@Welp I thing you will have to explain this a bit more in detail.
      Mario 64 is just as buggy as SA1 with some of its worst bugs beating anything in adventure, many late game level feeling far less thoughtfully put together than early game ones and star missions start to repeat them self (beating Bullies, going to the end of the level a second time but this time with a slight twist) its presentation is even more dated (the story and context(and some times Stars) giving Toads first spawn in moments before you would touch them) and Collision detection could also often be a pain so at least for Mario 64 would you really have to give a good reason why its supposedly aged better even just Gameplay wise than Sonic Adventure.
      I have less to say about OOT as its level design did stand the test of time far better most of its issues come down to many technical problems that make otherwise easy task liking jumping over a fence with Epona a pain to name just one example.

    • @SpeedyBlur2000
      @SpeedyBlur2000 Год назад

      I find that Super Mario 64 is more consistent in that it only focuses on one gameplay style, and it does that one gameplay style really well. Of course it has its own problems, like the camera and some courses, but I still like it. For Sonic Adventure 1, I can only say that I like about half of the game, that being Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles, the rest I don't like or couldn't care for. Again, I usually prefer when games focus on one gameplay style than try to fit in a dozen different ideas that don't mesh well.

    @mlpfimguy 3 года назад +8

    Hey great video! It definately helped me see the game in a new light. When I played Sonic Adventure for the first time, I was young, impatient and was used to a higher quality standard in Sonic games after having played Unleashed (Ps2) and Heroes (I only played through Team Rose's story which is significantly easier than team dark and team sonic, therefore I avoided the frustrations that most people have with it).
    I decided one day to play Sonic Adventure DX, and played through the first boss, which was fun, laughed at the janky cutscenes and the monitor saying "if the camera gets stuck, just be patient, it does that sometimes". The first level was fun, but I remember struggling with the collision, cause it felt like if I went too fast, I might break something. After the level, I was thrown into the hub city and by messing around with the controls, I found that I could get some insane air, so I began messing around and looking for ways to glitch out of the map.
    Unfortunately this is where my fun with the game ended, I got lost trying to find my way to the next level after taking the train, then when I finally found the boss fight area I was really underwhelmed by it because of the time it took me to find it. After the fight, I had to find my way to the next area through the large hub area again. As I was young and had no patience, I just got bored and gave up and skipped to Sonic Adventure 2, which overall I thought was good, but not great. The cutscenes were a massive improvement and the opening level of Sonic and Shadow are amazing, but I felt that the levels go downhill slowly from there.
    All these years I assumed that by playing Adventure 2, I was experiencing the best that the Adventure series had to offer, thus my comment on your other video. It really doesn't help that the GameGrumps played it and pretty much bashed the whole thing, I think that may have also soured my perception of the game. After hearing the points you made here, however, I'm starting to think I might be wrong about everything and should probably give it another try.
    In the end though, I think I do agree with you about what the next Sonic game should be like. As this game is decades old at this point, I think almost all of my issues with the series would be solved if we were to get a remaster of this game or a new Adventure game. I think it would be great for myself and newcomers to experience the game the same way people felt while playing it for the first time back in the day.
    Thanks again for the video and for changing my perspective and congrats on the 6k subs!

    For anyone looking for more difficulty regarding Tails' gameplay, check out the Better Miles mod for SA2. It ports Tails' gameplay from SA1 to SA2 with certain level tweaks to make his stages playable. The result is actually quite enjoyable. The linear, controlled levels of SA2 allow the level to have an increased difficulty by forcing the player along certain paths (though there are still many ways one can exploit Tail's flight). Because of this, I think if Sonic Team were to dedicate levels to Tails in future Sonic games; with levels that transition between open areas, where one can exploit Tails' flight to the fullest potential, and linear segments, where the player's skill as Tails can be truly tested, would solve the issue of Tail's stages being too easy and short while still allowing the player to develop their own unique ways of traversing each stage.

    • @lukemayes5007
      @lukemayes5007 3 года назад

      @360 Overdrive Totally agree. And I actually love the idea of Tails using a mech in his gameplay because it fits his character. He's supposed to be a genius and engineering different vehicles has already been established as one of his abilities. It makes perfect sense for him to construct a mech that allows him to destroy Eggman's robots more effectively, and beyond that the mech gameplay is also really good. My only complaint is that - in my opinion - the best mech levels are given to Eggman, and because of that I often don't replay Tails' levels in SA2 unless I'm playing through the story. I wouldn't say their bad levels, but the quality of Eggman's stages strongly overshadows Tails'. To expand upon my idea that Tails gameplay from SA1 could be improved by featuring levels with open and closed level design, Taild gameplay could also benefit from having him swap mid-stage or per-stage between mech-gameplay and SA1-Tails-gameplay. I think ultimately what held Tails back in SA1 and SA2 was not his gameplay, but instead the levels he was given. I'd say Speed Highway, and Eternal Engine are exceptions, but otherwise the levels Tails are given don't fully utilize his gameplay. Though, Windy Valley is still a great stage for Tails to me because it teaches the player just how much they can exploit his flight. Prison Lane is also a good tutorial level for Tails' mech gameplay because it forces you to destroy drones in order to progress, which forcefully introduces the player to how they can lock on to enemies in order to rack up points. However, while they are great tutorials, and do all a tutorial should, they don't fully utilize his gameplay. I won't go on about the other stages because none of Tails' other stages were particularly great to me, but they're all fine enough for a side character. However, at this point Tails' deserves better, and it's especially disgraceful given how he's been portrayed in later games (as you've already pointed out).
      On a side note: I actually like the gameplay in Sonic Heroes. I don't think it works for a full fledged game, but I wouldn't mind it returning for a couple stages in future games.

    I feel like tails was tossed into a mech because it was easier to do that than design levels around him and sonic as they did in Adventure. I never liked tails in a mech, eggman and gamma however was really cool.

      Tails was most likely added to Sonic Adventure 2 at the last minute to fill the game up with extra space. Which is why he is a Dr. Eggman clone.

    well since you asked for it lol, I think my criticism for Knuckles' gameplay is not that it's too slow, but that there's no clear sense of direction and it feels more like a chore to me personally. like if the radar starts beeping, you head in a direction to find out the signal is lost. you head in another direction, you lose the signal again. I don't think any amount of speed could rectify the issue of "being lucky" and finding it right away :L

    Oh man Sonic Adventure, It was Christmas 1999 I was 6 years old and I wanted Sonic Adventure 1 with the Sega Dreamcast, I got it and I enjoyed the game. I had the Action Figures from Resaurus and *cough Toy Island cough* and sadly broke them because I was a little kid, I remember that one of My Friends would come over and played Sonic Adventure, As a grown adult I only go back to SA1 on PC and just play though Sonic, Tails and Knuckles' levels, didn't care for Amy's gameplay, Gamma's was alright and Big Sucks. Now I think Sonic Adventure 1 is better than Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Heroes (if we're going by Dreamcast era) because it was a great way to start Sonic's 3D career after Sega struggled with Sega Saturn.
    Yes Sonic Adventure 1 has not aged good but it still had charm and is a very worth follow up to the Holy Grail of Sonic games Sonic 3 and Knuckles and I agree with SomecallmeJohnny's views on Sonic Adventure 1. Now if We got a remake of this game the charm of this game will be better.

  • @cliffturbo2146
    @cliffturbo2146 3 года назад +3

    I can agree that this game has aged well, when it comes to gameplay, but not with the cutscenes. I have the PC version with the mods on to make the game overall better, but if that's exactly how the game was from the dreamcast, then it's super great, like the controls and the graphics. The story is also great, and yes it has these laughable cutscenes, but this isn't a game from our present time. In around 2012, this game and SA2 got an undeserved hate, thanks to a few who doesn't quite understand this game (or the fact that they played the Port-port-Port version). I, who doesn't have nostalgia with Adventure games, had great time playing them.

    Hot take? I've yet to see anyone who would think the mech stages in Adventure 2 are better than Tails in Adventure 1. Tails' gameplay in Adventure 1 is amazing and it's as good as Sonic's if not even better because there's so much more you can do.
    Tails' gameplay in Adventure 2 had the biggest downgrade I've ever seen from a game to another.

    They need to make a conjoined remaster of Adventure 1 & 2. It will give them a chance to improve upon some of the aspects of the games, such as having Adventure 1’s mechanics alongside Adventure 2’s power ups (and potentially some new ones). It would also be cool to remaster the cutscenes and have the current cast redo all the scenes.

    I love that with each characters story, it becomes less and less about the main story. tails follows sonic a lot but eventually gets separated from him and more unique events happen. knuckles has some significance in the main plot like how he caused sonic to lose 2 chaos emeralds, but its mostly about his personal troubles. and finally amy, big, and gamma have little to no significance in the main plot and are more focused on live lessons and subplots.

    I disagree with SA1 being the BEST Sonic has ever controlled, but it is definitely up there. And yeah, people saying SA1 aged poorly but Mario 64 aged well is just laughable. Speaking as somebody who never played M64 as a kid, trying to get into it now-a-days was just horrible. I just didn't enjoy the tank controls or the poor camera movement at all. I played SA1 as a kid but was terrible at it, playing it as an adult I was still bad but it didn't like it would be a pain to improve and get good enough to go for 130 Emblems, which I eventually got :) Also, the Light Dash is slow to charge, but I really like how it's able to along a trail of ring even if you have a Thunder Shield or if some rings have already been picked up. Ofc Shadow fixed that problem anyway with ghost rings.
    For Big I feel they should have made his levels normal platformers, but instead of a goal at the end, you have a small body of water that you cast your lure into. When Froggy bites down, the level ends. They could've had a fishing minigame outside of that, but for his main levels, they should've been platformers.

    I felt like I was going insane for a few years when I noticed most of my gaming friends, and the gaming press despised this game. Most of the criticisms leveled at it are entirely valid and I experience them myself, but there’s just an overarching appeal for it I’m not able to describe very well. It seems like most of the things I enjoy out of its gameplay are perceived as glitches and unintended by my peers. People seem to be unwilling to accept that its massive fun factor is deliberately constructed from an array of admittedly janky parts that come together to be greater than the sum of themselves.

    I think you're very right, it's just that in terms of challenge SA2's are a vast improvement. SA1's are much more fun, though.
    Knuckles... his levels are just too easy, again. I think SA2 got closer to getting them just perfect, but then gimped your radar to only track one piece (and heck, I think only one of them spawns at a time), which is an awful change with the MUCH larger levels. So you lose a lot of time going to the same place twice or thrice, but you only see it after picking up the others..
