Sonic 3, to me, got way worse over the years. I remember zipping through levels and it feeling super fun. Replaying it and wow there's just way too much bullshit getting in the way.

It's like they add in one or two more fast areas, but then make sure the rest of a given zone is even more like Marble Zone than ever before.

2 seems to have hit that sweet spot of it being improved on the original, but not yet total bullshit.

Just some bullshit.

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 ...

this just makes it sound like you're bad at sonic 3. hydrocity is one of the smoothest, fastest levels in the series

Two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight and barbecue your own drumsticks!

I don't really have much of a horse in the Golden Sun race. Even if you ignore that one LP, the first Golden Sun game was only half a game. You have 4 lighthouses to visit and you only get to two of them before the game is over. Even when I played it back in the day I thought that was really stupid, and it soured me on the whole experience. Enough that I never bothered with the second game, much less the third.

Reading people's minds was fun, I admit. I love extra flavor text.

I was watching a friend stream Sonic 3 awhile ago, who had never played Sonic before, and he could NOT make it past Hydrocity. It was sad. Said friend had also laughed at the number of times I died in Sonic Mania when I was streaming it, but hey at least I got to the end!

I told him he's not allowed to laugh at me when he watches me play games anymore.

I should have been clearer; the bullshit really starts after Hydrocity, which still I love. It and Angel Island are great, and I prefer the two (2!) different bonus stages to anything from previous Sonic games.

But that 3rd zone is just.. Goddamn, and I don't feel it gets much better after that.

at least it stays good longer than sonic 1

you hit marble zone in sonic 1 and the momentum, both figurative and literal, just grinds to a halt and the game never recovers. even in 1993 i thought it sucked.

sonic 2 seems like a fluke in hindsight, that game is legit great in a series that mostly sucks

Who even knows anymore. Did anyone in April 2021 have any inkling that Metroid Dread would be out in six months?

Xenoblade reminds me of the early 2k Evony Online ads where it's all JPGs of busty ladies with their clothes falling off but the actual gameplay is like, SNES-era SimCity.

I played 2/3 of one of them, 50 hours or so. Can't remember which one.

Will Xenoblade Chronicles 3 have that really bad gacha system? If it still revolves around collecting those characters that you level up on a timer and are necessary to get through obstacles in the game world, than hard loving pass. That was the worst.

Ironically that's probably the track that's given Sonic 3 the most of these copyright music issues. From what I remember, when they confirmed Michael Jackson did indeed work on Sonic 3, it revealed he wasn't the only musician to, which is when music became the issue for Sonic 3 rereleases.

Was Golden Sun popular in Japan? I know the first two games sold well there, but apparently they sold more copies in the U.S.. and the third game had a humongous drop off in sales there. I feel like it's mostly Westerners who want Isaac in Smash

Golden Sun was always very niche. Another JRPG series in a sea of them. It got more exposure to Western audiences because of less competition back then.

I don't even think the series got any non-video game media apart from some Japanese gag manga

The Gacha stuff didn’t bother me in XBC2, I didn’t grind it though I just let the chances fall where they may and just rolled with what I got. Feel bad for those that wanted Kos-Mos though
