I hate this complaint so much. Now we're at the other end of the spectrum where the average level is over within 3 minutes, and each game using this format has to be bogged down by some half-assed alternative playstyle just to artificially extend the game to a playtime that's almost just barely worth the 60$ asking price. Heroes really was the best 3D Sonic game in terms of level, art design, and length. Adventure 2 beats it in style, music and writing, Unleashed has the best graphics, and Generations has the most fun gameplay.

Literally only played this for the chao garden. Would make one fun mobile game. Walk around to collect animals, use to make your chao better. Would be pretty entertaining.
>>
>>376074041
>Now we're at the other end of the spectrum where the average level is over within 3 minutes
That's a good length for a level though. 3-5 mins are roughly how long levels take in the Genesis games too.
It's long enough to be interesting without dragging on like in Heroes.
>>
>>376074041
Heroes just repeats the same portions of the level multiple times to have an artificial length.
>>
>>376073217
Those levels were too fucking long and switching between the characters slowed down the action too much.

He's not wrong though. Chao Garden Adventure 2 Battle is the best game in the Chao Garden series.

Pure garbage would be reserved for something like 06 which is completely broken or Chronicles/Boom which have literally nothing going for them.

>>376074293
They tried to make it sort of mobile when it was on the dreamcast. Those VMU memory cards in the controller could have chao put in them for extra stuff when you take them places.

But 3D Sonic games aren't on the Genesis. This is the thing that's holding the franchise back, this constant over reliance on walking through the shadows of nostalgia without the proper understanding of WHY things were the way they were, and HOW they worked so well. If Nintendo went forward with the Mario franchise like Sega/Sonic fans do with Sonic now, Mario 64 would have been a claustrophobic and bland point-A to point-B obstacle course through 1-1, 1-2, and Bowser's Castle, instead of the legendary fully original wide open adventure that it was.

A 35 minute long game (assuming the standard 7 stages) for 60$ in this age is more than abysmal, it's a huge ripoff. As far as the current gameplay formula is concerned, there's no learning curve or replayability involved because current-gen gamers find any sort of unexpected death or difficulty swing to be cheap or unfair. You also can't simply just "add more levels", because the boost formula is incredibly expensive to develop for with its 3 mile long hand-crafted racetracks. The formula is completely unsustainable, and saying 3-5 minutes is fine because that was the standard in the 90's is woefully ignorant.

I think Unleashed gets flack, but the main problem I have with it is that Sonic does not handle well in terms of raw platforming.

Also the homing attack button being shared with boost is really odd.

Of course. I just used them as examples of well paced levels. It gets tiring having to do these huge 10-15 minute long level.

Nay, PS3 had Homing Attack on square
I believe the PS2 version was the only one you could homing attack on the same button as jump
And Wii with the gamecube controller i guess
>>
>>376075291
Yeah, Gens does the slower platforming parts a bit better, and homing attack on jump instead of the boost is just common sense. I will say though, Unleashed has this sort of presentation that I feel Generations missed a bit; I get a much bigger rush from a perfect run of say, Jungle Joyride than Gens Speed Highway.

>>
>>376076482
There's only a handful of cutscenes in SA2 that lasts longer than a minute, most of them are just setting up the next zone not too dissimilar to 3&K, Heroes barely had any story at all
Though personally i don't mind the cutscenes it became troublesome from Colors onwards, those cutscenes has no purpose whatsoever aside from spitting out unfunny jokes in the middle of a really lackluster story, i mean fuck, if you're already putting that much cutscenes anyway then at least make it something worthwhile to watch
>>
>>376076568
I actually don't hate Adventures, I'd just suggest if SEGA would go back to that, cut all but Sonic's gameplay and go S3&K style with characters (Sonic based with 1 unique ability). That and Chao Garden and you're golden

Until than, only the Classics can be called "best", etc, etc.

>>376073217
Say what you will about Heroes, there is NO REASON why they shouldn't do a sequel which fixes all the game's problems.
Apart from glitches I personally think the game was perfect.
The game would include new teams but here are my ideas:

>Flight characters can now be controlled normally, and their flight mechanics are only activated after a double jump.

New Teams:
Team Sol: Blaze and Silver. A special unlockable duo with unique game play compared to the usual "fly, power, speed" mechanics. Maybe it acts as a super hard mode?
Team Umbra: Bayonetta as a single character Maybe as DLC? At the least, a very difficult unlock. When you switch between speed, power and flight, Bayonetta is always kept in play but the magic circle below her changes colour to match her changing moveset/playstyle.
In speed form, she activates her Panther Within technique when she reaches top speed, her homing attack resembles After Burner Kick, and her whirlwind technique (all speed characters have one iirc) takes the form of Witch Twist, or her airborne spinning kick, complete with flashy bullet arts.
In Flight form, she uses her butterfly wings to gain some height, and instead of the Thunder Shoot (i.e flinging characters at enemies) she just shoots at them with her guns.
In Power form, she uses her punches, kicks, bullet arts and wicked weaves (a toned down version of each) to attack enemies. Her dash attack takes the form of her Heel Slide Move.
Bayonetta can dodge opponents' attacks, and even slow down time if she dodges at the last second.
Her Team Attack could be, idk, Gammorah, some other infernal demon, etc.

Why does a children's game need that sort of "depth"? It is annoying at best. Mario 64 got it right, the princess got kidnapped once again and you had to explore the castle to eventually unlock the way to Bowser.

>Why are you such a retarded piece of shit?
Because you obviously grew up with 3D Sonic in which they shoehorned these sort of things in.
>>376076568
When you actually get good physics and controls so Sonic can actually control properly while not having abysmal camera then maybe 3D Sonic games could actually start being good.

I want a good 3D Sonic game, though the Sonic Team has proven time and time again that they are incapable of it. Complain about the classic fanboys as much as you like, but that was when Sonic got popular rather than waned, and for good reason due to the games actually being good rather than a joke of the industry.

Heroes was where Sega lost focus on what makes a Sonic game fun. The physics weren't as interesting as the Adventure games, the slapped on Power and Flight gimmicks interrupted the flow of gameplay, giving enemies health bars only slowed down the pace further and put a greater emphasis on an aspect of Sonic games (combat) that was never all that great to begin with, and the stages were awfully designed, as others have already stated.

And that's not getting into what was probably the dumbest Sonic story up to that point, the awful ports, the game being split into 4 routes to make the game seem longer than it actually was, or the stiff controls in general. Sonic Heroes gets far more love than it deserves, frankly, and is probably the worst Sonic game that isn't outright broken hello, '06 and Boom.
>>
>>376074617
>Adventure era titles are truly Sonic at his best
You mean the worst. They have no direction. A clusterfuck of different gameplay segments. The games are filled with non-gameplay tack segments, poor 3D models and CG. Not to mention a camera that fights the player at every turn.

World was okay. Levels could be better though. No real reason to go back and replay it, just doesn't appeal somehow.

Playing as all those other characters is nice though.
>>
>>376082727
Sure, I get it.
I'm not sure if I would wish for it not to exist, if only because it feels like an inevitable consequence of Sega jumping ship on the console market. No console meant a smaller budget for making Sonic's games, which resulted in more distractions being slapped in to make up for it. If we didn't get Heroes, we would have gotten something with similar problems. At least, that's what I assumed happened.

Theres new levels coming out every other day, you just need to sort through a lot of shitty level packs to find good ones. The next release is gonna have online 2 player and also a shit ton of new stages from sa1 and sa2.

>>376083125
Classic sonic is fat, the games are slow and unfun, and the level design is enfuriating
>>
>>376073612
There you go
>>
>>376083379
You mean you have to be more mindful of your momentum to clear certain sections and that the game demands some sort of level memorization to be proficient at it like any other game during that era?

Better than a bunch of boost pads steering you in a different direction constantly or having very broken physics and the camera suddenly switching and the controls following suit.

Sonic has been a momentum based platformer. Though I understand, you cannot adapt and grew up with boost pads so you prefer that sort of game.

Look i will defend sonic adventure 2 to the death anon but the classic games are flat out superior.

Classic fags would empathize more if you werent delusional.

I own the adventure games on gamecube, ps3, and steam. Im a big fan, but from one fan to another accept reality please.
>>
>>376083379
Yeah that's it is. I got tired of wading through it all.

Online multiplayer? Shit, I should install it again.

She'll never appear again thanks to how horrible that game was, thanks archie, thanks penders, thanks sega's law department and thanks bioware, I still remember your cock sucking fanbows defending your lazy online stealing buggy mess of a game that for extra dick points you made the characters suck off all your staff in rapid succession as a final fuck you to anybody who actually forced themselves to complete that garbage.

Wait for R8, or try out some of the existing level packs
-Avoid Gemstone's stages
-Avoid HyperJay stages

Jalex777, Yellow Drill, Waisechef, MightyN7, CII(C2) make good ones for the most part

I gave Rooftop Run both a go on Unleashed and Generations just now

Good grief, the Boost Formula relies on trial and error, although I think because of how it's designed, you want to complete the stages as fast as possible.

Only thing I can really say is that even in Generations Sonic still somewhat controls like a tank, especially in super slow sections like the 3D platforming of Seaside Hill.

It's fun, but I can see why some people get frustrated. You have to gitgud at the controls or die trying.

Reminder that after Forces flops and Mania vastly outsells it the following characters will never appear again aside from the Olympic games

Amy Rose
Cream the Rabbit
Big the Cat
Shadow the Hedgehog
Rogue the Bat
E123 Omega
Vector the Crocodile
Charmy Bee
Espio the Chameleon
Blaze the Cat
Marine the Raccoon
Silver the Hedgehog
Sticks the Badger

They'll all be on their way to useless character hell with
Mighty the Armadillo
Ray the flying Squirrel
Nack the Weasel
Bark the polar Bear
Bean the Dynamite
Honey the Cat
Gemerl the Gilzoid
Dr. Eggman Nega
Jet the Hawk
Storm the Albatross
Wave the Swallow
Tikal the enchidna
Chaos the water god
Shade the enchidna

and not a single one of these characters will be missed. Honestly, in my opinion Knuckles should be axed as well since his emerald means nothing

If they kept Silver after the shitshop that was 06, I doubt they'll just drop everyone

Also, Nack appearance fucking when?

Would you play Sonic Boom if it was based on the TV show
>>
>>376086524
Silver was never going away after 06, Rivals was developed at the same time as that game. Thankfully, since sega is still fucking clueless about 3D sonic so once Mania proves to make more money for less they'll finally just drop it.
>>376086517
It was always light hearted, now it'll just be worth a buy and a maybe even shelf space alongside other games like Mario. >>376086617
Never. Let that stay a shitty kid's show.

>>376086617

but ultimately they shouldn't be diverting any more money to that subfranchise

>or the stiff controls in general.
It wasn't stiff. It was too twitchy.
Lightly tap the analog stick in one direction and sonic fucking zooms off at 100 mph.
>>
>>376082710
Ocean Palace and Wave Ocean are the best Sonic World stages. Discuss.
>>
>>376086881
You're thinking of '06. Heroes had the Sonic that couldn't turn worth shit.
>>
>>376087028
Really? I guess I'm remembering wrong but I remember that being a problem with all adventure era games to a varying extent.
>>
>>376086219
Isn't Amy in Mania?
>>
>>376087094
It was kind of an issue in the Adventure games, but it wasn't nearly as bad as it was in 06', and was only really noticeable when you were going really fast.
>>
>>376086219
I think Vector (original design) and Espio should return in some form as one off appearances; I feel like they could be quite fleshed out in future 2D games.
>>
>>376087115
as far as we know, no

you might be thinking of that fanmade sprite animation

>the genesis as the only true sonic
It basically is though. I've been a fan since it came out and they have never made a game anywhere close to as good as the original games.

Even as early as fucking Knuckles' Chaotix you can see problems that have plagued the series for over a fucking decade. Sonic Team hasn't learned, and I'm honestly not sure what they even want out of the series at this point.

>I'm honestly not sure what they even want out of the series at this point.
The money, duh. Despite the gameplay of modern Sonic being consistently shitty, something about his "cool", snarky attitude resonates an unhealthy amount with his fanbase, leading to a cult-like fascination and willingness to buy anything with the Sonic name plastered on it. It's almost baffling, because even fucking Mario has gotten fatigue from fans when his games have slumped, but Sonic fans are in perpetual denial and Sega's obviously not going to stop catering to them, especially when they don't have to put out anywhere near the effort they used to in order to reach the same results.
>>
>>376075093
>Mario 64 would have been a claustrophobic and bland point-A to point-B obstacle course through 1-1, 1-2, and Bowser's Castle, instead of the legendary fully original wide open adventure that it was

Sonic could've been just as revolutionary. They chose to skimp out and bog the game down with a bunch of shit nobody wanted, so all we got were a bunch of half-assed games. Then they have to start from scratch because instead of focusing on one thing and refining it they just throw it out every other game.

Honestly Forces is probably going to be mediocre as fuck. They're sticking with boost, which is whatever at this point, but of course they're going to pad the fuck out of the game with stupid shit because they know people will bitch if their $60 game isn't a long-ass experience regardless of whether most of that experience is actually fun or not. I replay classic Sonic all the time and they're short games, but rarely do I ever replay most modern Sonic games, since they're fucking slogs and waste my fucking time.
>>
>>376088324
ROCK

>>376074179
And you have to do those long repetitive levels 4 damn times, with only Chaotix having some meaningful variation of the level.
>>
>>376073217
Was pretty good. Everything from mystic mansion and onwards sucks but the game is 9/10 before that. I personally rank it as an 8, for the end game sucking, story being to light, and some control issues
>>
>>376086986
Wrong fuck off Ozcrash, Sonic Heroes Stages are shit

Big's sections are nowhere near as bad as people say. I just played the game for the first time recently and his sections were lame but ridiculously short and easy to the extent that I cannot see why anyone had a problem with them.
>>
>>376093487
This. His stages take under a minute and the fishing mechanics are easy as shit to grasp.
>>
>>376092541
They both had their highs and lows. Sonic 2 was probably better but it traded in all the charm of the first game in for edginess. It polished the gameplay a lot though and the chao garden was far superior. Big's levels are criminally underrated
