Does anyone else feel like the mediocre Sonic games like Heroes or Lost World could have been great if they just followed the gameplay template from SA2. Strictly talking the Sonic/Shadow levels.
There was nothing wrong with how Sonic controlled in SA2, the levels rewarded skill, and the gimmicks werent stupid shit like guiding fruit into a grinder.
SA2 controlled like shit and it always has controlled like shit. You just got use to it's jankiness.
Heroes was a better game then SA2.

Heroes is Sonic R tier slippery with its control, the fuck are you saying.

Why do you hate Sonic?
Sega seems to hate the Sonic Adventure format, why else would they try to intentionally avoid it in every game?

>Get good formula
>Expand upon it in the sequels
>Drop it for something else
Theyre gonna probably refine the Lost World gameplay then drop it like they did with Unleashed gameplay.

13 or something years later and SEGA is still trying to transition Sonic into 3D.

it still twists my titties that they made the daytime levels in Unleashed, then expanded on them in Colors (i.e. removed the crap non-Sonic parts of the game), refined them a bit more in Generations, and then dropped it straight after
That gameplay style is ripe for one more game at least
>between 7 and 12 zones
>each with two acts
>game plays like Modern Sonic in Generations
>Sonic 2 style special stages reintroduced to collect emeralds
>time trials with ghosts
>other playable characters, who play very similarly to Sonic with some tweaked stats and their respective skills, instead of some new batshit game modes that don't mesh
>Sonic Adventure 2 style race mode
>Bosses more like the Colors ones than the Generations ones (which sucked ass)
that would be all it'd take to make undeniably the best 3D Sonic game to date. They have the ability to make such a game, they still have the Generations engine, and they know there's a market for it. Why this hasn't been made is fucking beyond me

Believe me, there's a lot of reasons why someone would hate the Sonic series.

Heroes was a step in the right path, but it still wasn't good enough
>>319648115
I think im correct in saying that games like 06, Shadow and Secret Rings are WORSE than Heroes, but Heroes is not better than Colors or Generations.
Heroes could be amazing but its execution stops it.

It's a great game only if you play just one story, Sonic or Rose, Chaotix is obnoxious and the stage length gets ridiculous in dark.
>>319649282
And Unleashed is a great game if you only play the daytime stages from the HD version. Which you can only do on PC with the Generations mod.
That doesnt excuse the rest of the game.
>>319649959
The werehog stages are a major missed opportunity, they could have been fun if there wasn't so much combat, the battle theme didn't exist. (The nighttime tracks are great but you hardly hear them) and if there was a reason to mix up your attacks.
>lololol Heroes a shit
fuck off, bet you fags played the shitty PS2 port
Heroes is underrated as fuck
