finally a video that doesn't claim SA2 as the worst thing in the world🤣, honestly i don't know why the internet collectively decided to follow that narrative
The reason behind that is quite simple, a lot of the game consists of undesirable gameplay styles, that have nothing to do with Sonic gameplay. That's why the game is so controversial.
@@snakey888 fair point. I think it’s because I started with the gamecube games that I never felt the multiple gameplay styles to be an issue. Yeah the sonic gameplay is the major highlight to the games, but I wouldn’t say all the additional gameplay styles are bad (really liked the werehog levels in unleashed)
The sonic levels aren’t good either. Only redeeming thing is the music, everything else is medieval torture. And I also just played it this year, I have no nostalgia for the game and didn’t grow up with it around it.
@@geovannilugo5435 what’s funny about Sonic’s soap shoes is learning years later that those were an actual brand of shoes. Imagine if they made a comeback, sonic fans would immediately buy a pair if they made the SA2 design.
@@th3SyLvEsTeR damn it, oh well mistakes happen. before playing the game I always thought sonic and shadow got one ark stage each. So when sonic warps back on the ark I was surprised to see another stage, just assumed it was gonna just go straight to the shadow fight. Also hell yeah this game is awesome.
@the one thing my friend told me about final chase was that it was one of the hardest stages, didn’t say why but just I would die a lot. After playing, honestly it’s one of my favorite stages. the gravity pillars were a cool mechanic and by this point I got a better handle with the rail grinding. The best part is I finished it without dying once. My friend mention the gravity mechanic could mess up along with homing, but I didn’t have any issues during my runs through.
@@famosoworld1643 I think my brother still has his GameCube copy, but we’d have to search for it. At least I have the Dreamcast version, plus the Xbox port just in case
Sonic has never been better than it was with SA2. It has so much replayability. There's a reason fans keep asking for a remake, if not by taking matters in their own hands via mods and projects. Was it perfect? Absolutely not. However a few years ago, TH-camrs like Egoraptor, Projared, etc, started saying out nowhere that Sonic was never good. Of course, since this is the internet, people take these bad takes as gospel instead of having their own thoughts.
I never liked sonic that much, my mom would get wii games from yard sales with a few of them being sonic and I didn't enjoy the the sonic ones that much, the whole "gotta go fast" thing was to much for my 6 year old brain to handle, (I also got a 3DS Sonic game from my grandma back in 2018 called Sonic Boom Fire&Ice, which I didn't enjoy, but that's not important.) and then I got Sonic frontiers back in 2022, but that game had to many bugs, so I quit playing. But yesterday I was scrolling through my really long Steam wishlist because it was the Steam winter sale, (And still is during the time that I post this comment.) and saw sonic adventure 2 was half off, and I've been thinking about trying it out for a while so I got it, and I gotta say, it's great! apart from some bugs and the fact that the game doesn't explain itself well, it's fun! I'm only a few levels into the Hero campaign, so I can't say that I'm not going to turn on it halfway through, but judging from what I've played, probably not.
@@MiguelMartinon Holy shit dude, ok yes Neppy is a Neptunia reference. Gigi wasn’t intended to be one, but I just remember that one of Nepgear’s nicknames is Ge-Ge. So without even knowing, but are technically Neptunia references haha.

@ wow now that’s old school, my older brother had the first one, and my twin brother got 2 and 3. I think we still have them home I’d just need to look.
SA2 is overrated garbage, 2/3rds of this game is a complete snoozs fest and speed stages have basic automated level design, sonic dream team>adventure 2
@Gokuorkakarot then let me break it down to a level where you can understand, speed stages have you deal with jank, falling robots on your path, dash pads always on your path, no branching pathways, basic level design, and every move you can ever pull off with one button that can make mistakes for you, levels like metal harbour, green forest, or radical highway are prime example’s of basic linear level design that does nothing interesting Mech shooting is even more linear, having enemies drop on your path and take you even slower then 4 miles an hour, and with how slow movement is you have switches placed under crushing bricks, good luck with that. Treasure hunting is more open with fair enemy placements but the problem is that your only looking for 3 small shards and levels are so big that they take rockets to reach high places and drag out from the fact that you can only find one emeral at a time lest your lucky to find another one in the open, and did i forget to mention your biggest opp in this game is the controls and jank. Playing sonic R controls are smoother, level design is faithful to the classics, you can play as different characters that are just as fast as sonic and have different moves that sets them apart from each other, and have easy to learn controls that easy to follow and not difficult to figure out, sonic R is one of the best racing games in my opinion and clears adventure 2, that clear enough for you??
Guy I just got back from Sonic Movie 3…… It was amazing, best sonic movie, best video game movie, EVER!!!! See it, Thank you.
I already did.
@ Nice 👌
Is it close to Sonic Adventure 2
@ without saying any spoilers it takes multiple aspects from SA2 while also doing it’s own thing like the previous 2 movies did.
You sound like you got the best childhood ever
W my man, im subbing i like you
@SonicTheHedgehogX15 appreciate it buddy

lets gooo! sonic adventure 2 best game ever! 10 outta 10!!! also very excited for that movie later on with you 😉
@@LullabyOfChaos hell yeah brother
Dude, i just watched your dreamcast video earlier today
@@allanbirk3171 the console was worth it just to play the OG version of SA2
Don't forget Sonic best shoes the SOAP SHOES!!
@@geovannilugo5435 what’s funny about Sonic’s soap shoes is learning years later that those were an actual brand of shoes. Imagine if they made a comeback, sonic fans would immediately buy a pair if they made the SA2 design.
No way i just did too, 1 and 2, before the sonic movie 3 came out
I really need to go back to play through all of SA1, haven’t done that since GameCube.
SA 2 is my shit! The stage with the gravity stuff is Crazy Gadget, not Final Rush btw

@@SquiggyYeah j reviews ranked it low on his 3D Sonic, levels list. I just think it’s dope especially the music.
Hello fellow sonic unleashed goat, you actually enjoy it and not hear the reviews

@SonicTheHedgehogX15 Unleashed is my favorite game in the entire series, sonic x shadow might possibly take its spot but it’s hard to say.
I play this game back in 2002 and own it on the game cube this game over 20 years

SA2 is overrated garbage, 2/3rds of this game is a complete snoozs fest and speed stages have basic automated level design, sonic dream team>adventure 2
@SAMURAIPACK456 sorry you didn’t like SA2. Also I hope dream team comes to other things besides Apple Arcade, been wanting to try it.
Ain’t no way you actually called sa2 is overrated and garbage🤨
@Gokuorkakarot i have, i played it and i had a better experience with sonic R, everything you people said about SA2 was inaccurate, sorry not sorry
@ 😐 I have no words to describe how dumb that answer is.
