Also I made some minor edits to the OP and labeled the videos so you can tell which story happens in them.

With the worst sidequest finished we can go to the bishop and face the Trials of Soleanna. Unfortunately a beloved companion will die before we can reach the gates of Kingdom Valley. So it goes.

Of course it's trial and error! That's why it's called a trial!

HulkaMatt why the gently caress did you put all these robots into the second trial? This is where I got severely stuck when trying to play this abomination because it is so. loving. bad.

Everything wrong with the "combat system" cumulates into a random-rear end difficulty spike that eclipses even mach speed rear end. You're rolling dice against the physics with every action you take and you will lose. A lot. And then sit through three loading screens that sum up everything else that's wrong with the utter pile of dross you're trying to play for some reason.
Most of the terribleness in Sonic 06 is kinda quaint and you can laugh at it and ridicule all the glitches and break levels and have some fun. The Trial of Cuntrage? It's the most frustrating, random-rear end poo poo and you will scream violent death wishes onto whoever thought of the no-hit challenge. Or onto the LPer who forces you to watch through all that nonsense again. At least you did it!

I tried doing this while taking a shot for every death! You know what? It doesn't loving matter! You think there is anything you can do with skill? Practice? Reflexes? Go gently caress yourself, Sonic 06 is ugly today.


EDIT: Lest I forget - somehow the third trial is even dumber how is this possible

This is great! I marathoned through this LP over the last few days. Love it. I'm a connoisseur of bad games, so of course Sonic 06 is among my favorites. I played it a couple of years ago. Hoo boy... the only part I didn't make it through legitimately was that loving billiard puzzle. (Does that even count as a puzzle?) I gave up and glitched past it after failing over and over and over and over and over and--I can't believe you got it on the first try!

That's the only part of the pokecapn LP I've watched, because I wanted to see if they managed it, and how long it took. About twenty minutes and a lot of screaming, as it turned out.

I cracked up when Hulkamatt saw Sonic Man and said "Oh my god, he runs like Ulillillia!" because that's exactly what I thought of, too.

I'll have you know I worked my fingers to the bone to get where I am today.
It's really ridiculous how many different incarnations of Sonic there have been and how many various side characters he's had. Besides the original games where the characters for some reason are all still around, there was also the old cartoon with Scratch & Grounder, the comics which had a rabbit called Johnny who died when they introduced Chaos, the anime cartoon which can gently caress off, the 3D games which bring us awesome characters like Big The Cat, the other cartoon where he's in a band with his siblings who are never seen again, I think there was an entirely separate set of comics as well, and I'm sure there's at least a few more mediums I'm not sad enough to recall.

Oh, and enough ORIGINAL CHARACTER DO NOT STEAL fanfiction characters to fill an industrial size meat grinder. But they're all worthless, stupid ideas, like a jet-black hedgehog who is gritty and serious who discovers he's some kind of experiment, and can use Chaos emeralds to something something energy power magic.

I am about 96% sure that he was a robot built by Robotnik because he wanted a son but no one on the writing or character design team could stomach the thought of a woman touching him.

wait your saying that robotnick isnt the smexiest guy in animation:


becuase he is. lookatthatbutt.



It's bad children's anime, does that count? Because bad children's anime is the least bad anime there is. It's not nearly as offensive to the senses, at least. I'd rather be watching dumb stuff like Digimon, Pokemon, and Sonic X than pretty much any modern non-children's anime ever.

Anyway, the Sonic X anime is just "Sonic's troubles in anime land" followed by "abridged versions of SA1 and SA2" followed by "Evil Tree People" that want to conquer galaxies. I'm not joking about that last bit, though I've never seen it in video.

Yeah I thought he meant Sonic X, not the old OVA. Sonic X is just bad, bad, bad, but I don't really hate its mere existence. The OVA may be better in the "bad" sense, but I can't stand catgirls, just saying.

But the hands of one of the gentleman were laid on K.'s throat, while the other pushed the knife deep into his heart and twisted it there, twice. As his eyesight failed, K. saw the two gentlemen cheek by cheek, close in front of his face, watching the result. "Like a hedgehog!" he said, it was as if the shame of it should outlive him.
