Never understood why people loved the Chao Garden so much.

Though in SA2 is in general an awful game that gets way too much nostalgic praise when 2/3rds of it doesn't belong.

Because it's the best part of the game.

Sonic Adventure was pretty much the beginning of the end for Sonic. They started catering to the audience that would later make up a large portion of DeviantART and adding a clusterfuck of stupid characters like Shadow the Edgehog.

Chao was the only cool thing to come out of it but they were dropped to very minor characters afterwards and get progressively forgotten as the years go by.

It was addicting, though I can't remember if it was good. The damn things basically kicked off my Sonic Phase because they're the reason I even wanted the game.

Eh, Shadow was alright in SA2, and I actually like some of the other characters like Vector the Crocodile and Blaze the Cat.

Characters aren't the issue. That problem is that they're not written well.

None of the other saves on my memory card would corrupt, it was just that one. After about the third time, I just stopped caring. Why bother raising a chao or playing the game, if it's just going to shit on my face and kick me back to square one?

I feel lucky going back to this just now and still having my ONLY chao i've ever truly raised. I'm sorry your chaos didn't make it, anons. But I have to agree, although it is one of my favorites, i can't play it any more. Its mind numbingly painful. Chaos are okay, But I even knew the MATH for those fuckers. I can't be assed to try or else i'll go over board with breeding/training/ressurecting/training/ressurecting/training for an SSSSS chao.

Yeah I think I'm done talking now. Fuck

Yes. '06. Sue me.

Either way though I used to be a huge fan. Sonic kind of took a dump on my chest after Heroes.

I only enjoyed the pseudo-realism in the style of the game. The design for Eggman (aside from his rubber pants riding up his frontside) caught my eye initially. And I enjoyed Silver as a character even if he IS Trunks from Sonicland. I also enjoyed Blaze and Mephiles.

Otherwise gameply and physics and writing and story were entirely shit throught out the whole game.

Mephiles was pretty cool, if only for being voiced by Dan Green

Blaze, though, she barely did anything, and the game completely crapped on her previously established character.

I fucking despised those annoying little shits. After completing the game and finally earning all the emblems with them I unleashed my rage, beating and starving and ultimately deleting all of the little faggots. Was one of the most therapeutic moments i ever had beating a game.

That's kind of where it set in. I still played because I hoped they'd get better, I ALMOST gave up after unleashed, and colors. Then finally gave up at Generations.

I hated the series but I had hopes that maybe they'd change for the better. Nope.

The Sonic Adventure games. The Gamecube port of 2 is, by far, the best incarnation of it, though. The Dreamcast games have a lot of chao stupidity that the Gamecube games fixed.

They definitely were. But as an old, bitter fan... I couldn't help but feel like it was made just to shut us older fans up for a while. Like if I actually took off my nostalgia glasses, I wouldn't quite enjoy it. And that's kinda how I got out of it. Their fan service I felt was kind of an insult in a way. But I'm not self entitled and feel I should just go bitching you know? I'm fine without it anyhow. Plus, I enjoyed Colors to the very fullest that I could have. Got all the Red Rings legit and all that. Felt Good.

SA2 gets way more attention both positively and negatively than it really deserves. It's alright, and the soundtrack is pretty sweet, but it doesn't really stand out all that much beside from it being the only point in the series when Shadow truly belonged. The Chao Garden's fun once, but afterwards it gets incredibly tedious. If nothing else they're cute, but it's a pain in the ass time-wise trying to get them to evolve.

On a different note I decided not to be a piece of shit and play Sonic CD after missing it at least twice now, and now I'm having a hard time putting it down.

And they didn't. They had their good moments only to take a one way trip back to the plateau that has been sonic for just about 10 years. Colors, was good. Generations was good. But were they enough t save the series? No. Not to mention the lost worlds or what have you are going to reintroduce color powers. Which is fine. But they're going to just fling them in there, add some script about friendship and call it good. That pulls in the Colors players. I get that. But we all know that the sinister 6 is going to threaten the world, and Eggman's gonna be all like, "I can't take over a world that doesn't exist." and then you get HANDED the Chaos Emeralds throughout the story again and you turn in to Super Sonic and punch a guy and then you're left to collect 200 some odd nothings to get a sub-par reward.

I'm not saying I hate any of that stuff exactly, but It's definitely the pattern the games take with a few exceptions.

It looks like the major problem you have with is the story with the games. It's for the best so we don't have something like Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic 2006. Even so the patterns aren't really a problem when the level design and gameplay is fine. Lost World looks great for both level design and gameplay and the story isn't try hard. I'm looking forward to it.

I can't tell you i'm NOT displeased with Lost Worlds. But other people like it so I can't really bash it. I don't even know anything about it. And I think you're right. The stories I think are what bug me the most.

That, and Sonic's CONSTANT voice actor changes. But that's another story.

But that's actually why I liked Unleashed. It was for Eggman. He finally made Eggman Land. Like, ACTUALLY made it. I always thought, "So what if we went in and fucked it all up? He accomplished something as a villain!"

This was before Generations and Colors though.
