Why does Zig Forums hate it again?

>he didn’t post on the Chao bbs back in the day

>a few contrarian faggots on a forum in 2002 said this so it must have been a popular opinion
Thanks for proving you weren't even alive when the game released.

I'm 29 but sure.

People did like it on release including me, but what I mean is saying its a classic or one of the major games of the generation. I don't think you can put it on the level of stuff like Mario 64. It's just a good game that had some pretty major flaws that unfortunately brought it down. No one pretended it was a 10/10 game or as good as some people are selling it now.

>90% of people are braindead and don't know how you're supposed to learn the levels to be fast as fuck
what a surprise
knuckles/rouge levels shouldn't take you more than 3 minutes

Litterally only a single mech level is arguably bad, the rest range from great to meh at worst.

Also, the Mechs accelerate and turn faster then Mario does in SM64, it always makes me laugh that people call them clunky but then say Mario is super responsive and has amazing movement/controls (when he's ACTUALLY clunky).

The Treasure stages are a mix of good and flawed ones, I'll admit, but it still averages out to being meh, not bad.

Funny how the camera issues they all talk about is something SM64 is just as bad with, and when it, as established above, has even worse movement issues since Sonic/Shadow being TOO responsive has less downsides then Mario not being responsive enough. Notice also that the people whining about the mech and treasure stages aren't actually saying why or how they are bad, just that they "aren't what sonic should be" or something similar, which is what 90% of the complaining about them is aboiut: People mad they don't play like what people feel sonic should play like, not that they are actually bad judged for what they are.

But yes, SA2 was always somewhat controversial, as those posts note: But much of the criticism for it wasn't valid, and there was also a LOT of praise for it, as evidenced by the majority of it's original review scores being around an 8/10, give or take a point, vs your cherrypicked image

I'd absolutely say it's comparable in quality to SM64, like 80% of the criticisms SA2 gets would apply equally or worse to SM64.

SM64 is just immune to criticism because it's such a landmark title.

only 1/3 of the game + chao garden is decent. How the fuck can you consider this a good game?

Meme music and the Chao garden is a kino game within a game

got this for a dollar on steam, its so shit playing as an adult

Half agree. Treasure Hunting is not as bad as morons make it out to be but the Mech is just 50% terrible 50% passable. 100 ring in Mission Street is just fucking retarded.

I don't, but I wonder why it feels so fucking jank to play now when I had no issues with it at all when I was younger

Yeah okay buddy. How about these accounts? Why can't you disingenuous cunts avoid resorting to revisionism when discussing the quality of the Adventure games? The truth is they were considered divisive long before the mid 2010's like you idiots seem to think.

let me guess you get spoonfed your opinions from youtube reviewers and either havent played the game yourself or played it half-heartedly after [youtube game reviewer] said 1/3rd if it was good.

Mario 64 was the template for responsive movement in a 3D space, resorting to whataboutism, especially considering the major difference in level design philosophy and general pacing of the games, is utterly ridiculous. Adventure was largely valued for its style and spectacle, so of course opinions soured over time compared to Mario 64, which was valued for its revolutionary movement. No matter how many times you spindash into a jump it will never change that.

>a compilation of retards
and what does that prove?

>1 hour analysis of a kids game
you can't expect anyone to actually watch that shit do you

You can watch the intros where they literally recount the discourse online at the time of release.

Sm64 is far from responsive, though.

Anyways, my point is just that SA2 is absolutely comparable in quality to SM64 and has many of the same flaws, but SM64 is given a pass for those flaws because it was the first major 3d platformer.

deal with it classicpedo

The point of the image isn't to say the games were considered bad. They were divisive.

You need to be 18 to post here.

Sonic was never good

uhh?

Because its PATHETIC. why the fuck would I want to play a game as some STUPID hedgehog? Its foolish really. Its sad. I could be doing ANYTHING else than running around at the SPEED OF SOUND. The question really answers itself OP.
