Maybe Sonic really wasn't ever good.

who considers it the best?
everyone knows sonic adventure 1 & 2 are the best sonic games.

"Classic" Sonic was never as great as people think it was, and Sonic Mania was just that with prettier graphics. The only format in the series that ever came close to being legitimately intriguing were the Adventure games.

In Mario games finding a shortcut is like teacher giving a first grader a gold star. Good job, you pressed down on a pipe.

In Sonic games you create your own shortcuts via mastery of the game's physics engine. It's a much more rewarding, skill-based experience (which is probably why zoomers can't into it)

Care to explain your evaluation?

I'm an 18 y/o and I love playing classic sonic games to death. Mainly Sonic 3&K.
The more you play them the more just raw fucking soul they had put in the 2D Sonic games. Especially with the story when you play as Knuckles.

The best are CD and Mania. Mania I could see docking points against it cause level theme reuse and it is pretty easy though.

why do you keep making this exact same post, word for word, whenever we have classic sonic threads

go outside dude

pure soul

plebeian opinion

I am outside, I have that webm saved to my phone.

Sure, if you ignore the Emerald Hunts, Mecha Missions and basically everything else that doesn't involve playing as Sonic.

i'll show you pleb opinions:
>Sonic 1 is bad
>CD is the best Sonic game ever
>2 is better than 3K
>Mania is better than 3K
>SA1 is horrible because fishing
>mechs and treasure hunting sucks
>Colors is a return to form and the best Sonic game
>3D Sonic bad
>Sonic bad

or maybe your taste wasn't ever good.

In Mario games you don't need to find shortcuts because the entire level is designed to be played and enjoyed.

I prefer song CD.

>>CD is the best Sonic game ever
This is true though.

>In Mario games you don't need to find shortcuts because the entire level is designed to be easy
ftfy

please explain your reasons for thinking that. Also avoid mentioning the FMVs and OST

Zoomers have such bad taste, but it's not their fault they grew up during cultural decline.

criticism for sonic games is so weird. it's like people complaining that they're bad at the game and can't just run at full throttle all the time, like that was ever the point of anything. lots of dumb, irrelevant mario comparisons because of marketing, too. bizarre takes.

All the different gameplay styles were fun. You're probably a brainlet that can't stand being pulled away from Sonic for 1 second

Sonic games have the best environment design and music out of any platformer. They make the competition fucking dull.

Nope
>Sonic game
>doesn't even let you go fast 95% of the game
>when you CAN go fast is only for an specific section to trigger time travel
Metal Sonic and Stardust Speedway was kino tho. Same for the music (JP)

Weakest bait dude c'mon

>Zoomer word tourettes

a lot of people like to play games they didn't grow up with, there are much harder games to finish than sonic the hedgehog for the genesis that I've played through like Megaman 1, Mike Tyson's Punch Out, and a few others, I like Genesis Sonic but it's really not that great, its kind of style over substance

Samefag lol

Weird that Yas Forums hates e-celebs but mostly uses the former's said opinions to hate Sonic

>blocking off part of the level because you didn't press a button while running at mach speed on the first time going through the level without any warning, you just have to know to do so from having played the level before
wow such great game design, so "hard", and so "skilled"

>3D Sonic bad
Absolute truth.

>doesn't even let you go fast 95% of the game
every sonic game is like that. they're platformers. it makes the flow times special. even then, you can pretty much blaze it if you memorize the levels, like most retro games.

Nigger There's warp pipes in the first fucking level of SMB that skips the entire level, and Warp Zones to skip entire LEVELS

Just say you hate Sonic, move on and let people play the games they like. It's not like this fanbase is fucking cursed with it's own cival cold war already between eras of Sonic, so fuck off already we don't need anymore shit.

Why yes, being able to skip part of a level by using skillful movement and foreknowledge of level design IS great game design.

sounds like every fucking game from that time period

This.

Git gud

>is a 7/10 at best
More like 10/10.
You just have shit taste.

No. Covid.
You should stay in home you moron.

Not him but that's why I can't stand playing old games very often. This kind of shit is only good in small doses.
