I love how Sonic Team took trips to the regions they wanted to represent in the stages of the game both in Adventure and Sonic Unleashed, it makes both SA and SU feel so much more filled with love and attention to detail than other games before, or since these two.
Well, in 2008 the internet was more widespread. They probably didn't waste money on travelling the world a second time.
Though this doesn't mean they didn't do a good job. I love that game.
There certainly was a lot of love put into both games which I do really appreciate!
i hate how i automatically read those as "sexual abuse" and "steven universe" respectively
I feel everytime Uekawa is brought up, I need to poke a bit of his other Sega history with Ristar, and how he was the character illustrator for that game!
That makes so much sense!
so that explains why the style looks pretty similar
Oh wow that's pretty cool 👍 My appreciation for Uekawa's work grows everyday.
Unreleated but
this man is underrated.
True
sega hire this man
One of the comments of all time
Thanks a bunch 😭
@@kirotalksyt no problem
2:19 this is why I love this channel
I feel its kind of a reach to say sonic was a dying franchise.
Stagnant maybe, but dying? not even close.
The first time I played sonic adventure I thought it was a very short game, then I realized I had been playing a small demo xD
Latin american knuckles is best knuckles 👌👌👌
Uh...Deem Bristow....I miss him.
He was the best Eggman in my opinion.
RIP Deem Bristow. Absolutely iconic Eggman VA 🙏
Man, rock fits so much to modern sonic era
this man is an underrated king
It actually really hurt, when you said that Amy's story isn't fun. I hope you understand. And I'm not saying your not allowed your own opinion, I just wanted at'least one person to know how upset it makes me when they criticise her gameplay.
Amy's story is over in like 10 minutes so she doesn't have too much time to shine which is pretty unfortunate, i think if she had more bite sized puzzles and more combat i think she would be more fun (which she already is but not as fun as the others like sonic knuckles or gamma)
Cry about it, breathe in the copium while you do so
I like your commentary! Very open-minded, but not shying away from how you feel about it. This style of commentary makes me want to come back for more content!
"and big is..... i-i guess he's hubba bubba"
that shit made me laugh so hard lmao
*"Modern" Sonic living his worst*
*Sonic Frontiers gets teased*
- What is happening?
- He is starting to believe.
Perfect mix of humor and information.
basically, sonic be switchin
Yo! I love your new style with the retro tvs and all the editing! Hope your channel gets bigger!
The dudes screen at 3:51 caught me so off guard
This video resurrected my rotting decaying body
Honestly I always wonder and just curious whenever people mention sonic being a dead franchise I often ask what quantifies as a dead franchise? I only bring this up because I'm starting to feel people like to throw that phrase around carelessly especially when sonic is involved
That's because you're right, it isn't a dead franchise. Sonic hasn't been as successful as he could've been in terms of games for the past few years sure, but he's still a pretty iconic mascot of the gaming industry up there with Mario, Link, Megaman, etc. Very few people don't recognize who he is even now. He's a literal staple of pop culture. But people have this idiotic mentality that just because they don't like something anymore that that means it's dead. It's even weirder when people say that despite the dozens upon dozens of fan material and passion projects that come out every year revolving around him, not to mention the two successful live action movies that came out not that long ago, and the upcoming third movie, show, and video game.
Who knew that such an apparently dead franchise could still have companies pulling out teeth to get to it, because it's in such great demand from fans but old and new alike.
Sonic can't die. Megaman and Bomberman are the actual diying franchises.
@@iregretsomeofmypreviouscom3284on an interesting note, Sonic, Crash, and Spyro all had games that were considered “mixed bags” back then. Surprisingly, only one out of three managed to survive not having to go under a hiatus for a long while…and who else but the Blue Blur to still keep going.
Sonic was called a dying franchise because unlike most mascot characters, he was going toe to toe with Mario. Any deviation from his fame will be considered "dying."
Of course the stupidities that followed didnt help. Penders owning legal rights to most Sonic character stories, Emi revealing he got railed by Drummond, Sega going almost bankrupt, the dip in quality of the games, the lack of confidence with Sonic Team's abilities and the toxicity of so called Sonic fans.
@WhatIsMind48 is he, though? If anything, it seems that people are comparing him to Mario despite both companies not being enemies anymore and the competition being left behind years ago.
Yeah, you got that right. Don't forget the circle jerk and the ridiculous hot takes on Twitter when it comes to Sonic.
that kanye reference didn't age well :o
I fucking love Uekawa's style
Now if only we got Sonic Adventure 3 👀
Wanting adventure 3 is broke.
Wanting Rayman 4 is woke
Yes
@@ArcKanosie are you responding to me or the comment
VAIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLL
Ayo what
5:02 if we're counting fangames, SRB2 is a good contender
Well, not really... while it DOES have pinball mechanics, the momentum physics themselves are relatively lackluster...
- Controls too slippery for 3D.
- Inability to run over walls or ceilings.
- Airspeed too high, no air resistance whatsoever.
And... while the level design in SRB2 CAN complement the engine, it doesn't have many of the things that Sonic used to have... what really turns me down, is the lack of Loop-De-Loops in the game.
@@Eldoofus controls being slippery are what makes it so fun with the speed you can get. not only that, it has the classic sonic gameplay for all characters. Ie: no treasure hunting or stealth added in.
The only loops adventure had was automated.
It keeps the classic designs and storytelling.
All in all, it's way more faithful than the adventure games
@@Sydney_Angelyt As far as physics goes, it's not really one-to-one with the Classics, it does get some stuff right, but it's not much more faithful than Adventure1 in THAT regard (Sonic Adventure wasn't even trying to be too faithful)
@@Eldoofus literally all of that is being overhauled in 2.3
Thank you for sharing the Dreamcast version. Needs more love compared to its sister port.
Thank you for reminding me to get EmuVR set up
under 20K subs? That's a shocker
Can't wait for the long awaited 3rd game in the series...
Big Nukem 3D.
Way past cool
My buddy never fails us!
Sick video man. I'm of the opinion that SA1 is better than SA2 and doing a solid job of carrying on the elements of the classic game.
I do feel that the lack of a saturn game hurt Sonic a lot as well by creating a new flavor of sonic with a new generation of drinkers. Classic is like Dr Phibb and Adventure was like Dr Thunder or some shit. Similar but completely different armies that would murder the other in cold blood.
Amy as a concept was the most appealing to me but the history of the development of this game explains why Amy and Tails and Gamma just got rehashed remixed stages instead of new content that explicitly leverages their gameplay mechanics in the best way possible lol.
The game was really made for Sonic and your comment about him getting the most love rings true. Good video overall!
Now that you've gotten the appetizer out of the way, when you gonna move on to the main course? SONIC SHUFFLE. If you do, be sure to hit me up I'm yo nigga for that game.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Also Sonic Shuffle 🤣 The forgotten masterpiece. I'll need some time to do that game justice. Months. Years. Even centuries.
@@kirotalksyt Let me in those DMs and you'll only need a few hours brother. You have know clue how much i learned about this game.
Great video, loved your sense of humour. Speaking of reviving a dying franchise what are your thoughts on Frontiers?
“They added big to be relaxing” me when a big fish bites 💪😡🤯
:P Idk what to say but good vid :P
Sonic isn’t a dying franchise, millions of people still love it
I bet you didn't watch the video.
@@Gmodfan750 I did, did you?
@@omnipotentowlproductions Yes i did.
Breath of the wild moved switches sonic hasn’t had that power since the genesis I would equate sonic games to gold fish snack food buy it for toddlers sing it’s praises but personally snub your nose at it… that being said sonic is a great character I would love for “his” gameplay to be more in the sense that his games are more creative polished and I’m optimistic about frontiers I just hope that the soundtrack doesn’t include shitty vocals for the music and more specifically no singing generations was good but at times boring hence why I say creative and polished… but anyway…
@@thomashaugh8720 Sonic Adventure 2 got pretty close with the GameCube, which was considered a dying console at a time too. I get that some of the Sonic games are a bit on the rudimentary side. But there's definitely more "advanced" aspects than what you're expressing. The early 3d games and some of the later titles exemplify this really well. Also... I don't get the comparison with breath of the wild... Just because a video game franchise doesn't move units or save consoles, doesn't make it any less valuable.
Cool
I thought we were done with the "Sonic is dead/dying" myth.
What about the 2nd movie breaking records? Or everyone at the edge of their seats for Sonic Prime and Sonic Frontiers? The big boy release?
did u watch the video? its about how sonic was dying in the 90s and revived by adventure
Watch the goddamn video first, he's saying it was dying in the 90s and Adventure brought it back
YOU.ARE.THE.BEST
Noice
3:21 They got snapped twice again, in 2010 and 2020.
That sure was a Sonic Adventure
3:12 not in the Japanese version
Yeah I can't make too many comments about the Japanese voice acting, but it seems solid.
hey Kiro talks👋can You later make a Sonic adventure 2 vid and really good Sonic adventure vid
I'm sure I'll get around to SA2 one of these days, sure~
thanks
It's not weird to me how the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise is in the 30s while Sonic as a character is still 15 and no there aren't contacts, his eyes are actually green just like everyone else has they're own eye color. It's just the way things are now and I don't mind it actually like modern Sonic, unlike a lot of people I have a connection to modern Sonic since I grew up in this era. I was born in the 2000s so I didn't grow up with classic Sonic, I still like Classic Sonic but I have a connection to the modern son and, no one's going to stop me from telling everyone how I feel!!!
The title had literally nothing to do with the actual video but I enjoyed it anyway
I miss Uekawa Sonic style so bad
tails gets new va for each game
Yes they put rock and then in Adventure 2 you can’t hear anyone talk. The music is so loud!!!!
You can disagree if you want
but I think that the other gameplay styles isn't bad or boring
It's just that sonic is way too fun
and I would argue that highly praised games like
Mario 64 would feel the same
(Kinda boring vibe of the other playable characters in SA1) if it was implemented like them
Because again it's sonic being too fun
Not the extra characters being bad
And honestly as I mastered playing sonic
(Using the slopes and the spin-dash)
Tails and knuckles who I really enjoyed looked so boring that I no longer play
and now all my new save files of the games are 100% sonic and 0% for the rest of the playable cast.
2:45 where that from?
Thought you’d say Sonic Rush.
Sonic is good
2:53 What’s That Song name?
What's the Name of that weird game room?
EmuVR
@@kirotalksyt Thanks!
Watch him do all Main line sonic games sonic the hedgehog Through sonic frontiers lol
Big is your vegetables
I do think Sonic adventure most of it has aged pretty well. I think the gameplay for sonic, tails, gamma, and even for knuckles has aged well. I enjoyed playing as Amy back then, but yeah looking back at it it's not as fun. However one thing that still sucked back then that obviously sucks now but yes when the game was new it sucked back then is big the cat. It's a Sonic game I don't want to go fishing for a stupid frog. You can even tell by Sonic's tone of voice that he's losing patience with big the cat when big retrieves froggy from chaos 6.
What obviously has not a well though of course are the animations from the cutscene and yeah I mean for a lot of it the voice acting isn't very good. There's some parts that they do fine I guess but obviously for a good amount of it yeah not so much.
You can tell how many people in the comments haven't actually watched the video.
Sonic adventure 1 and 2 is great the story with every character is great except big the cat story and gameplay was the most hated.
Ayo 3:50
It's not dying, I mean a lot of my friends loved Sonic Forces and felt it was finally a return to the Generations formula that we all needed. I'm not necessary agreeing with them but it certainly isn't dying, just stagnated for a bit.
Are your friends okay bro? 😭
Sonic may have "returned" to formula with Forces, but it was a watered down, uninteresting, and poorly made replica of the formula.
@@bobtheball5384 my friends are perfectly fine. They just happen to like a game that you don't.
@@charicole105 my only qualm with Forces was its length and acceleration physics, I didn't really see any other problems with it.
Really threw me off with this era of sonic lol. I thought it was gonna be about what’s going on now
Title is hella deceptive bro
Pls make a video about smash bros
who told you it was a dead franchise lmaooooo
Did you even watch the video?
People said the franchise was dying way back in ‘03.
Sonic will live forever; kids have a different view of the games than the critics and god-awful shitty ass fanbase have.
Umm 3:51
Hm
