Sonic Adventure 2 was a hard miss. (lemmy.world)

I loved Sonic Adventure 1 and have replayed it so many times. The levels were pretty great and the small open world was fun to go around and find the hidden power ups.

Sonic adventure 2 was painful to get through. I hated almost every level. The only ones I enjoyed were the Sonic and shadow levels, but they did not feel well designed. So many times, enemies would just drop from the sky on you without any chance to doge them.

Hunting for the emerald pieces was so boring and tedious. I hated those stages. There was one time where I restarted and luckily found them all right near the start.

The tails levels were OK, but it felt a bit clunky to control. I think that was by design, but I didn’t care for it.

I played both of these games as a kid on the Dreamcast, so it’s not like I’m nostalgic for one and not the other.

I just replaced SA1 and loved it, playing SA2 reminded me of hating it as a kid.

Do you share my opinion? If not, what do you think of this game?

That's a good point. They probably gave Eggman the spotlight because he's the leader of the Dark side. But Shadow's stages were just more fun, lol
