Kinda, the second half of Angel Island and onward is pretty much the dropping point of level quality. Everything before that is actually pretty great, then suddenly shit gets terrible.

Time Stone anon here. Got gud and managed to get all of them. Wasn't that hard now that i think about it. The hard part was holding on to 50 rings. Also unlocked all extras in Taxman's version so feeling real accomplished.

Only thing left is destroying all generators and I have absolutely no idea where they are. Oh and apparently there's a statue in Wacky Workbench but I can't find it for some reason.
>>
>>386525178
I feel that Sonic CD receives a bit of excessive accreditation simply because it utilizes technology not previously available to developers. Certainly, the mechanics are interesting in theory, but in practice it leads to a bit of a clunky design that's less fun to play than its predecessors. This is not to say that the game itself is fundamentally flawed or of a bad design, but my personal enjoyment is lessened by the fact that certain things that I've come to expect from the series have been altered with the new mechanics which have been introduced.
That cut your list you CD loving faggot?

What the hell happened with Sonic anyway? It went from abstract crazy charismatic confident style on the mega drive to lame and weird with Sonic Adventure. Can anyone else that was there (aka oldfags) remember when they revealed Sonic Adventure? Chaos, Sonic being in a normal city, Sonic talking to normal looking humans, how fucking weird that was?

Games making the jump to 3D was already kind of weird and heavily experimental. As a kid who already went through Mario making his jump there, seeing Sonic be different from the 2D aesthetic didn't seem too odd to me. Hell, I was just excited to see it finally happen for real this time instead of 3D Blast only being isometric. Yes I grew up with both Nintendo and Sega in my life, we even had a Saturn, and I first played Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast so it felt like the next gen hadn't even really started yet at the time.

Your personal enjoyment being lessened by its different approach to gameplay objectives is reasonable and understandable, if unfortunate.

It warrants accreditation in the gameplay department, however, as well as others, because it takes the classic formula into a different direction (without straying so far as to change the fundamentals and basics of sloped levels and pinball physics) that renders it a distinct gameplay experience, and does it well. For the most part.

Seconding that Wacky Workbench is fucking trash. Not as averse to Metallic Madness, though.

It's really an alternate Sonic 2. It could use its own "Sonic 3" or "Sonic CD 2" that polishes the exploration focus into something less esoteric in its design. As it is, it's below 3K, but more "essential" than Sonic 2, since 3K renders 2 more redundant than either do for CD.
>>
Any surprises on Stardust Speedway Act 2? Since the Venus Flytraps were on Act 1.
>>
>>386526525
Sonic CD's aesthetics and music are my favorite parts. At least Taxman's remake makes controlling the game feel a bit less clunky.
>>
>>386526274
to follow up, I then played it and was actually pretty enamored by all of it. It was pretty cinematic for its time.

Sure, MGS1 was still probably a lot more cinematic despite being a gen early but I didn't play that until much later so to me it felt really quite advanced and huge.

Stop wishing and get to work on dissecting it, picking it apart, learning the ins and outs of how it works, and reverse engineering it into your own thing.

Mania's only possible because a community developed that did exactly this for the classic games. Adventurecucks alone have the power to give themselves what they crave.

The fags at Chao Hippotank are your best bet so far, but they've never put their knowledge to use into programming and actual game. Sonic World is the only real "Adventure style" fan game I've seen, and it's not pretty.

I'm very confused by it. He has pretty ridiculous numbers of views on all his videos from the Sonic 2 bonus video on. How did this happen?

>>386527564
>>386527642
Why would anyone defend the barrel? I really don't understand.
>>
>>386527457
Doesn't seem warranted. I tried watching one of his videos, and it was difficult to watch. He was making very basic points, but his delivery was almost as cringey as the kind of shit Spax would make.

Shay is a much more dedicated and refined form of autism, and deserves much more popularity. Even Lange, with his gigantic as fuck ego, deserves more.

Maybe I just watched the wrong video? It was his Sonic 4 video. I feel him on how bad the game is, but that was 7 fucking years ago. The game isn't any better, but there's been more than enough time to chill the fuck out about it.
>>
>>386527731

Cybershell was right about the barrel

He's one of the first people on SA that let's played the first three Sonic games. He has a fanbase from years ago.

>>386527985
I can understand that. But like, are his other videos significantly better, or is that one I mentioned essentially the norm?

not that guy, but he only made the video shitting all over Sonic 4 because he got a bunch of hatemail from underage kids for casually mentioning it was shit during his 'Mania is the real Sonic 4' video.

No?
I think Sonic 3 & Knuckles is the best game in the series by far, but if someone points out dumb shit like how unintuitive (and necessary to learn to progress) the barrel mechanics are, Big Arms being cut out of the Sonic playthrough when the games are connected, how boring the Sandopolis sub-boss is, or how pointless that sequence where the Flying Battery tries to bomb you for a solid half minute at the end of Angel Island is, I'm not inclined to defend the game at all.
>>
I'm trying not to be such a tripfag but there are a couple things I'd like to respond to
>>386527564
I'll stand by what I said, I truly think if anyone genuinely could not figure out the barrel no matter how long they spent trying... Well they're probably retarded. That said I definitely don't think it's GOOD game design or anything. Just saying if I could figure it out as a kid then anyone should be able to. Basically the barrel does suck but I was tired of it's meme reputation as the most confusing thing of all time.
>>386528054
>But like, are his other videos significantly better
I dunno about significantly better, but that Sonic 4 video is probably my worst one, I was just so legitimately triggered and infuriated by the mere existence of Sonic 4 defenders that I had to make a video dedicated exclusively to insulting them.
>>386527949

>>386528561
Blue sphere gets so goddamn cunty on its later levels, it amazed me that so many people like it. I'm assuming most of the people who praise it didn't get hyper sonic.

>>386528323
Sonic 3 does a lot right, but that barrel is like the definition of bad game design. Granted, it's easy to bypass it once you know what to do.

Sonic 3 is pretty boring, desu. If you cut out all of the automated shit that takes control away from the player, it would be a lot better. I always find it fascinating when I see so many younger Sonic fans gravitate towards it. I'm assuming they're really engaged with the story or some other such nonsense.

Yeah, it intentionally misleads the player by making them think they're supposed to jump on the barrel and not hit up or down. It's bad.

>Just saying if I could figure it out as a kid then anyone should be able to.

Getting lucky and bypassing something doesn't make it intentionally misleading.

>>386528963
I've never played the game, but seeing how the physics works in it makes me enraged. Sonic's platforming is entirely based around momentum, letting go of forward and losing your momentum is a giant fucking flaw in its design, as is the fact that you can't really roll down hills. That and the wall walking means momentum isn't ever important.

That's fair enough, but it's not like it's meant to be a puzzle that you need to figure out or whatever.
That basically everyone who doesn't already know what to do goes into that section and spends at least a minute just trying fucking everything until something sticks is inexcusably garbage design, and I feel even here explaining your rant you're seriously downplaying just how garbage it is.

That's understandable.

Small revision to my prior sperging. The thing that was offputting to me was the small Sonic 4 rant in the Mania video. Not as bad as memory served, but was still a bit excessively vitriolic ala Spax.

Will check some other ones out.

I just cleared Sonic 3 Complete yesterday with the prototype layout of Flying Battery between Carnival Night and Icecap. And i've got to say, I shouldn't of done that; Mushroom Hill and Flying Battery are basically the only amount of fun I had out of the S&K content, because Sandopolis and beyond felt like absolute hell.

I probably just suck at Sonic, but it felt like every every zone at that point just started throwing trial-and-error dick moves out, like getting crushed in Sandopolis Act 2 by rising sand or running a little too far in Lava Reef, and enemies around every other corner that pretty much attack the moment you get in screen range to cheapshot you. It became a chore by the time I got to Death Egg with how every other screen felt like it was designed to take my rings away.

I will always love Sonic 3, even if Tails constantly fucks up my platforming while i'm trying to do shit if I bring him along, but Sonic & Knuckles fucking blows after Flying Battery.

When you get good at playing Sonic games (and games in general), Sonic 3 becomes much less fun to play compared to the others.
>>
>>386529471
Well, yeah, the further into a game you go, the harder it gets to proceed unscathed. And while Sandopolis deservingly gets its share of shit, the rest of the game is still very good. It also helps to have a fast reaction time when playing a SONIC game.

At least you admit it man, so many people here get DSP syndrome and call the levels bad for obscure reasons.

Sandpolis act 2 is a legit difficult zone though, it starts to throw so many things at you at once that it can become easily overwhelming. I remember having a really hard time with it as a kid, but I've probably beaten it hundreds of times now so I find it decently easier.

>>386529573
>>386529615
Same here. I prefer Knuckles overall and honestly find all of its zones good, but both games are pretty great. I feel like every zone in 3&K is good at worst. Launch base getting made easier in the complete version is lame though.
>>
>>386529887
>>386529928
Yeah, but even in the 3DS ver. they still picked Mushroom Hill over anything Sonic 3. So odd.
>>
>>386529778
I'm here to tell you that I was a ride or die Adventurefag for years, before I started to think more critically about gameplay. This coincided with my actually playing the bulk of 3K, finally realizing the importance of rolling, moon jumps, bouncing, etc.

I still look at the games fondly, but they're pretty shit when looked at as video games, those things where gameplay is the absolute most important thing.

People did find it funny at the time, it was making fun of all the other low effort leaks & the poster was giving a lot of bullshit of what's going to be in the game. I believe this was right after the time Sakura Synagogue was booming, so making fun of a leak that many fell for was funny.

The Adventure games are not good. Most games from that era are not very good.

Sonic 3 has fucking Marble Garden and Carnival Night, the biggest snoozefests of the entire package. Especially Marble Garden. Ice Cap is all right but kind of boring too.

The classics aren't perfect, but they're more consistent and less inherently flawed in design than the Adventure/Heroes/06 era. Unleashed is good when you're not in a werehog segment and suffering from dipping framerates or dying repeatedly in Eggmanland from bad camera angle platforming, Colors suffers from too much use of 2D and short gimmick stages for filler, and Generations actually suffers from minor niggles here and there that don't shit on the game as a whole except Planet Wisp and Lost World is Lost World, that's all that needs to be said

Anyone can point out the flaws in the classics, particularly Sonic 1's lack of refinement compared to its sequels for obvious reasons alongside some seriously inconsistent level design, but the 3D games make more readily available punching bags because they're what stemmed the downfall of Sonic to begin with in many people's eyes.

All of SA2 is legit fun. The controls and style of Heroes takes some getting used to, but it's ultimately a fun game, although it's a dick move to make you play through it 4 times to get to the real final boss. I Didn't play 06, but it has cool music. Unleashed daytime levels were mind-blowingly fun, Werehog was a bit meh. The Rooftop Run Music is one of the best Sonic tunes ever. Didn't play Colors. Generations had too much 2D in so-called "Modern Sonic". I like Crush 40 and the super crazy Super Sonic final bosses that started in SA1 and SA2.

Modern Sonic has its cool stuff, but it really is nothing like the original MD/CD games. They might as well be 2 different series.

Then we're on opposing sides. Carnival Night did bother me with how long it lasts close to the time out, but ultimately I can appreciate Sonic 3 a whole lot more than I can S&K. I like Mushroom Hill and Flying Battery, and then everything after that besides Sky Sanctuary is incredibly uncomfortable.

>>386530923
Yeah but thankfully those two Zones are relatively early in the game. It's not like the triple helping of shit that is Oil Ocean three acts of Metropolis then a Zone where you literally have to stand in place for the entire stage (Thank goodness Wing Fortress is actually fun).

I actually don;t think Sandopolis 2 is that bad though. Undoubtedly the slowest Zone in the entire game but not necessarily bad.

>>386531220
adventure 2 is the most flawed game on that list but only the treasure hunting levels are all that bad. the mech stages certainly aren't very sonic-like but they're fun. i suppose you could complain about the kart stages but if you're just playing the story you only have to play those for a very short amount of time and those runs aren't hard in the least.

Honestly, I really don't give a shit about the 3D Sonic games. I don't like them, but I also don't "talk shit" about them because I really don't care. I didn't grow up with them and I'm way too old to give a crap at this point.

It's cool if you enjoy them, though.

>>386531408
>The part where Knuckles got electrocuted must have been an eternity of torture for you.
The entire stage is basically nothing but the Knuckles fight and story scenes (and with Knuckles it's literally nothing). It's basically the Sky Chase of Sonic 3 & Knuckles before the last and most challenging part of the game, except nowhere near as bad as Sky Chase.

That's part of the issue, any time I want to play through S3&K I get through two fun zones and then get hit with fucking Marble Garden, the worst Zone from any of the originals. Even Labyrinth is more fun. Then Carnival Night just drags on and on. Ice Cap probably isn't even as bad as I always feel it is, just it comes after such a slog that it feels worse.

Slower than Lava Reef 2? Not saying it's bad being slow, but Sandopolis 2 had a number of instances of speed. It's just that Sandopolis was filled with unfavorable mechanics whereas Lava Reef was simple, precise platforming.

It's an alright fast-paced action platformer game, just expect something more akin to a Treasure title than something like Sonic outside of speed.
Also the voice acting and plot are bad, but Adventure Mode gives you almost all of it dialogueless.

A while back there was a big long fake leak (pic related) right before the SDCC Mania panel happened, everyone didn't give it much attention at first but it accidentally predicted some shit like the Special Stages for example. One of the zones were called "Sakura Synagogue" which pretty much proved it was fake but a lot overlooked it & then felt dumb later. The Anon came out & admitted it was fake by the way.

This >>386527051 is the Eggman glitch, the devs (Taxman, Stealth, etc.) showed it off during the SDCC Mania panel since it was entertaining to them.

>>
>>386536739
I never even thought about Pause Buffering for Blue Spheres until I saw that Anon stream it earlier. I just find it easy simply, you go around some Blue Spheres in squares to turn them into rings, you only turn when you're in between the tiles under the player so you have a second to input you command since it responds to that and jumping is a life savor unless you go into a huge batch of red spheres.
>>
>>386536739
Blue Sphere isn't hard to begin with, it's just really punishing if you fuck up once.
>>
>>386536739
The reason people find it so easy compared to other stages is because it's entirely in your control and down to reaction times.

In Sonic 1's special stages you're basically fighting against the physics and don't get me started on Sonic 2.

>>386537416
The thing is the only way to get good at Sonic 2's is just hard memorization. You just have to play them until you know where everything is going to be beforehand, and that's not fun.

A little bit. I mean, there's one instance in the 7th special stage where you have to remember that there's 5 straight ring clusters on the left side, but for the most part it's still just reflexes, same as any other special stage. It doesn't require a ton of memorization really, I had them all mastered within a week of owning the game back in 1993.

I don't know why but I always find those stages difficult.


>>386537726
They're still way less fair than blue spheres. In Sonic 2 the rings will easily pop up insanely fast, making it impossible to get all of them unless you're close already. Dodging the bombs isn't ever hard, but actually getting the bulk of a ring cluster is.

still, those advanced 1 bonus stages are a genuine nightmare.

Oh, I agree. You almost can't lose at blue spheres. They're boringly easy. But Sonic 2 isn't too bad. The good thing about Sonic 2 is that you get tons of extra chances to complete the special stages thanks to all of the star posts scattered throughout. Sonic 3 is pretty good about that too, but you have to discover all the ring locations.I really recommend this book that gives you full detailed maps of all of Sonic 3's stages. You might be surprised at how many hidden special stages there are in the game.

To be honest, I find they're more intimidating than S1 or S2's stages because of how easy it is to lose so that tends to put me on edge whenever I do them, but overall they really aren't difficult. You might just need to calm down.

Advance 1's stages are pretty bad.
>>
>>386537726
>but for the most part it's still just reflexes, same as any other special stage
Except no, other special stages rely more on timing and/or mastery of the mechanics. This is generally true even if they are shit.

2 is almost purely memorization and twitch reflexes in the last handful. Anytime the pipe isn't going straight ahead, and possibly due to the poor scaling on sprites as well, things can pop up on screen with just enough enough time to react to them, but nowhere near the time needed for Sonic to move across the pipe if necessary.

I'm tired of this "argument" as well. "I did it when I was a kid so there must be no issues whatsoever".
It's just dumb.
I guess BattleToads isn't hard and doesn't have any bullshit in it since I beat that as a kid. Couldn't have been me just bashing my head against the challenge over and over until I figured everything out through brute force with the infinite free time of being a kid.
>>
>>386538824
This.
>>
>>386538824

That might be true except for the fact that in order to get good at Battletoads, you have to fail over and over until you get good at it (Battletoads is one of my favorite games of all time, by the way). This is not the case with Sonic 2's special stages. I never had to memorize them to get good at them. They're just easy. Most of the 'memorization' parts are very forgiving and easy to predict.
>>
The thing with the barrel is that, unlike some believe, you can actually do it by jumping. I actually got quite good at it though it was still kinda frustrating. I wish I remembered how I found out about pressing up and down, it was such a long time ago.

>>386539137
I got it with Prime so it better be here on time, I wish it (the PC version) gave a fucking Delivery Estimate by now. I'll just pirate the game if I have to though, I refuse to wait any longer than the next 7 days.

>I never had to memorize them to get good at them
Maybe you just don't remember failing at them or having to learn the patterns since you were a kid at the time.
That's the other thing about "but I did it as a kid" arguments. You don't tend to remember any frustration or issues, or at least I don't.
I mean, as a kid I played Super Mario Land 2 enough to literally find every single secret in the game entirely on my own, and I'm using literally correctly, but I can't remember struggling with much of anything even though I'm sure I must have at some point.
I'm sure I went through some learning process for classic sonic gameplay with it's totally unlike anything else out there, especially at the time, rolling physics and all that. I sure don't remember it though. As far as my memory is concerned, I've always been able to play the games without any major issue.
>>
>>386539930
When I say "as a kid", I mean when I was 13. That's when the game came out. I remember very well playing the game for the first time, in fact the game's absurdly low difficulty stood out in my mind even at the time, coming off the original Sonic the Hedgehog.
>>
>>386540047
Oh, so you didn't actually mean "as a kid". You just said it for dramatic effect.
>>
>>386537416
Not saying you can't get good at them, just saying Sonic 3's are definitely more controllable. Sonic 1's special stages are purely down to fiddling with the physics until you fall into the right place and Sonic 2's are slippery as fuck and just impossible to see where you're going. In Sonic 3, you can see whats ahead of you fairly well and it's not hard at all to control the character. Whether you win or lose is entirely down to your reaction times. Knowing where to go is a bonus but it's not necessary like Sonic 1 or 2.
>>
>>386540124
Depends on your definition of "kid". To me, 13 is a kid. But 13 is old enough that I still retain my memories of playing the game for the very first time.

If we are going to be like that the good classic Sonic games are also an annoyingly short list and as you've seen from this threads you can't get people to agree if 3/4ths of that list is even good to begin with.

>>386530812
Anon, I think the deal is that a lot of people prefer the classic gameplay to all the later iterations, even if some of them are good or were good for its time (Adventure fits the later like a glove). But since this is /v/ anything that's not a 9 or above is shit (with that said, I wouldn't give a lot of modern titles an 8 nor a 7).

Because that would be stupid.

8-Bit Sonic 1 is only hard if you're going for the max special bonus at the end of the game, which required getting all the emeralds (50,000 points), playing and completing each bonus stage (50,000 + 50,000 points), collecting all 12 extra life monitors (50,000 points), and doing it all without losing a life (100,000 points). Getting all those will give you an extra 200,000 points on top of that, totaling up to an extra 500,000 points at the end of the game. Each one of those categories on their own are doable, but doing it all at the same time is a real challenge.

If they make a Sonic Mania 2, should they try making new characters?
