Sonic 2 on Master System is a very different beast that has its own gimmicks and deserves some respect.

that was the one that was like an antlion in a pit at the bottom of a slope and no rings, right? yeah that game was uh sweet.

None of the boss acts in Sonic 2 GG had rings in them, but the first level was pretty infamous because the screen was so zoomed in that you couldn't see Robotnik at the top and it was really hard to dodge the balls. Green Hills Zone had the same issue where the boss arena was much smaller than in the Master System version making it harder to dodge the boss.

The Digital Deluxe version actually lets people play it early. I know similar things happened with Animal Crossing, Pokemon, and 3D All Stars, but it's actually not piracy in this case. Though I have no idea if a day 1 patch would fix all that.

Yeah, the slope had weird momentum if you slide at all, and the bouncing ball things had what I think was rng on which pattern they bounced in. So sometimes you'd just get the ones that are off screen way too high to see, and good luck.

Also, right before that, there's a part where Robotnik grabs you before you hit an instant death lava pit for some reason, and drops you into the boss fight. And I had a handful of times where he just didn't feel like showing up, and Sonic would just die in the lava.

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

The worst part of the Sonic games is all the contemporary characters having voices and personalities. Sonic Generations turned out really well in spite of that

If a straight port of a ten year old Wii game requires a day one patch, I'm out.

Edit: I canceled my Amazon preorder last night even though I already had the sale price locked. I was willing to go day-one into a good port of a decent 3D Sonic but by all accounts the port isn't as good as the Wii original if it's not straight up bugged out.

Also there's too many red flags here: Unusual porting circumstances, inexperienced porting house, rush to release despite obvious concerns, and a pre-release sale price (although maybe just Amazon) as a mea culpa. I made this mistake with Pillars of Eternity and that game is straight hosed.

Yeah, when I finally went back to the game literally years later, and beat it, I didn't have much else to say. Still a bad game, but fine after the hang glider level. And no other boss killed me because of the boss not spawning. The boar guy and the seal that I sort of remember were fine. :shrug:
