You can pick up the Chao with the 'Y' button on the Dreamcast version of the game and not have to worry about accidental hits. This was removed for DX on GC and onward to my knowledge.
17:56 as one of these people. This story literally made me cry and I definitely would call SA1 one of my favourite sonic games! (I really hope to play it for myself soon so thanks SS1014)
Blue Bird Lamentation is the correct song to put through the hell you've gone, and thanks to you I know there are more Zero Escape enjoyers out there than I thought.
48:25 … those are very low stats. Decent stats are between 500-1000s. The Jewel races are meant to be the final races so you jumped in with hard mode. This is all hindsight but it would have benefited you massively if you searched up a lot of info on how to raise the Chao prior. I did my first time. The best tip for any new players is using the animal duplication glitch (not sure if it works on Dreamcast). By placing the Chao right next to your chaos face (not too close) they receive the stats & you can pick up the animal for further use. Rinse & repeat. Edit: Yeah the fact that an exploit is needed shows had bad the grinding can be for the Chao garden, especially when tied to emblems. The progress meter shown in the GameCube Chao gardens helps a lot & is not something I knew was absent in the Dreamcast.
I don't *think* it works in the dreamcast version, and if it does, I likely wouldn't have bothered out of fear of attacking my Chao on accident. Considering I spent almost 10 hours on the Chao garden, about 6-7 of those hours giving animals, getting stats like those would've probably been another 6 hours by itself, and that's just ridiculous. Plus if anything, keeping my stats low made for a great ending lol
@ definitely did (the great ending I mean), seems like a big chore on the Dreamcast version. I wonder if the Dreamcast version of adventure 2 is any better.
@@KPeraOfficial wow I never knew how unintuitive the original Chao garden was. I also think the video had no stamina so you’re Chao could do whatever it wanted at any time.
Move Faster Platformmmmm is actually a reference to ProtonJons SMW Kaizo rom hack playthrough where he had to spin on a pokey and the pokey was moving slowly, to which he aptly said "move faster pokeeeedeeeeey!!!!"
it's possible to get the Long Hammer for Amy in game, it's possible for Amy to go back to the Egg Carrier as soon as she gets to Mystic Ruin as the boat is already there without having to do the Final Egg before getting it, plus the Twinkle Circuit scores are not shared between characters unlike the other sub games so there is no need to do it badly first time, just do it again with any of the other characters to get the 2nd emblem for it, plus when you do Hedgehog Hammer as a sub game for the first time all you need to do is hit a Sonic target and let the time run out as you gat an achievement just for playing it like you do the other sub games
About the being able to k1ll chao Technically Shadow can something close to that in Cryptic Castle from his banger game Shadow the Hedgehog There's a chao area near the end of the stage that allows you to abuse the chao (it builds your dark gauge) Just incase you wanted that info!
I barely touched the chao garden on my first play through of sonic adventure. I did not know that the races heavily depended on luck! The foreshadowing at the beginning was a nice touch, though. Merry Christmas, John! 🎄🎁
For that first "Get extra lives" cheev, it's possible that the dev didn't know about the two on top of those buildings you showed at the beginning of that section. I sure didn't!
The Knuckles Emblem thing is still somewhat the set creators fault too as they should have said that said glitch wasn't allowed for it. How else were you supposed to know that doing it that way wouldn't count?
Kinda true. The achievement is not for getting the emeralds, it is for getting the mission/emblem and the guidelines themselves say that additional requirements or restrictions outside of what is stated on the tin are not allowed.
Fantastic work man SA1 is one of my favourites but never fully 100% it because of the chao chaos. Completely broken >_< Kudus for going through it all. Hope you are good with mental health as you mentioned it at the end of your video. Can’t wait to watch you stream more SA2 ☺️ Merry Christmas!
I’m actually really curious now. Is there a big difference between the GameCube & Dreamcast Chao garden in adventure 1. I didn’t have a bad time at all in my experience. It was very grindy but never felt unfair for me.
This was so crazy. First of all, fuck Chao Garden for being infuritaing to watch and realize how broken it is. Second of all, congrats for beating the grind. I am excited for the next Sonic game
An interesting fact about chao garden is that in the original Sonic Adventure is that you can use the Y button to pick up the chao without attacking it
this is one of the few sonic sets that ive seen where its actually good and whatever problems you have with it comes from the game, not the shitty achievements. Also if you're looking for easier sonic sets, I recommend you playing some sonic rom hacks with easy sets like Sonic Megamix (both the genesis and CD versions), Sonic & Ashuro, amy in sonic 1 and 2, knuckles in sonic 1 and 2, sonic classic heroes and Knuckles Emerald Hunt. Most of these sets are just "beat the game 100% once, and beat the game with all characters"
From my experience with the Chao races, the camera only switches if you continuously spam A, to well trick you I guess and teach you to not do that (which you still did), just shouldn't have done that or done it slower. And spamming it might actually be making the chances of the Chao tripping even higher, because when I just didn't do it that only happened a couple of times.
Can I throw in the achievement "it's wireless!!!" From the metal gear solid set for best named achievement on the website? For context, you get it by defeating Psycho mantis without switching controller ports.
Hey just a heads-up, the epilepsy shield isn't that shielding unfortunately, it's still flashing a lot and might trigger epilepsies. I appreciate the effort though!!
@@HeartlessSlayer3 Yes exactly, it's the uncovered parts that are still quite flashy. One method I've seen around is to put a warning up with a timestamp or audio cue to signify where the flashing ends. Might be a useful alternative. Also, I loved the video! The pain must've been unbearable, but I commend your determination!
If I could add my own achievement to this game, it’d be “Collect all overworld emblems as Sonic only.” It’s possible in the GameCube DX version (I did it myself once) so it should be possible here. Edit; Maybe not that underground one…
I can see what the devs were going for with the Chao Garden. This version really leans into the Tamagotchi idea, where you really do have to take care of them instead of just shoving them full of animals, fruit and chaos drives. I wouldn’t mind this version back, maybe with the ability to connect to an app to recreate the VMU experience. Just iron out the stupid jank and cut down on grinding and it could be great
"This is the best achievement name on this website, no arguments". I don't know, I'm quite fond of Australia Paraphernalia (and not just because that's one of MY achievements).
I've also been trying to figure out the VMU saving issue for the past week, but for Chao Adventure 2. Admittedly, stopping this video to avoid spoilers probably resulted in a lot of wasted time lol
I'm pretty sure that for the chao garden, gamma is too tall when giving animals. But pretty sure if you hit the button to put it down, that you can give it to them while he is putting it down since you'll hit their hit box. I did that in DX, at least.
I mastered this game since July but thanks for your help. I hope you should mastering super Mario sunshine and Shadow The Hedgehog on PS2. I mastered Sonic Adventure 2 on Dreamcast as well since September.
It's actually possible to do the VMU game?! I just forced my Chao to sniff animals and eat fruit. _keeps watching_ Sounds like I dodged a bullet that way to be honest. Especially since I cottoned onto the fact that it's ONLY Gamma that has trouble giving animals to Chao.
I wonder if others had any trouble when it comes to the Chao stuff, I know youtuber SomeCallMeJohnny did all emblems on SA1 and 2, and don't think he had this much problems with the Chao stuff, though could be wrong, might have to go back to the VoDs of those streams to see Also would think there would be more info about this whole thing as so many people love just the Chao stuff, mostly in SA2 though, i don't know about SA1
I cried during this whole video cause of how true it is I felt so bad for your depression and how insane you got take very good care I hope you find another game you love to do achievements with love you peace😊❤
im trying to play this game on retroarch but whenever i do sonics eyes are just clipping in other parts and the game just looks ugly when i play it is there anything you did (btw english is not my first language so if i misspelled makes sense)
@25:48 I've seen score of 5000 before, so having an achievement for say... 4200 wouldn't be TOO farfetched to achieve as.a "Whack-a-Hog Master". Thoughts?
Hey sad news the creator of final fantasy Sonic x died.. yes that is not fake He died you might know him as blackdevilx or 'the final fantasy sonic x guy' the cause of death was a heart attack RIP blackdevilx 1988-2024 you Will never be forgotten the impact that final fantasy sonic x had on the sonic community the flash games community and the internet in general cant be underestimated RIP to this legend 😞😢
I don’t know how you think the airplane stages are easy for the extra mini game emblems. I played them for hours and the points are just not enough even after locking onto everything.
as someone who trained a chao in sa2 battle to the point were one chao could beat all the normal stats and all the other levels it was painful as i ended up with two of them by accidently (a good chao and evil chao)
I really don't think it was fair to immediately close your ticket when that limitation wasn't put in the achievement description or a comment under the achievement with a note to read it in the achievement title.
