      You played unleashed wrong playing it in one sitting sounds horrible.
      Play the 2nd act of windmill isle and look for shortcuts memorize the level lay out and get an s rank. Do that for every main level and it will feel insanely rewarding. It may not make unleashed a better game but what I'll say is that in my opinion the peak of unleashed is the pinnacle of fun you can have in any sonic game!

I criticize it all the time, but I always find myself coming back to it every so often to play through it. Many Sonic fans are the same way.

      Yeah, I was insanely shocked at how bad he talked about Sonic & the Black Knight. Him saying it was worse than Secret Rings made me doubt he even played the game personally. The music obviously deserves B tier at the very least. I don't understand how he couldn't enjoy tunes like Misty Lake or that end song With Me. Also The story is among the greatest Sonic game stories ever told if not THE BEST. But the controls are the worst thing about the game; however, it is without a doubt an incredible step up compared to the controls in Secret Rings. Also he didn't mention at all how much the Wii Nunchuk helps out. Certain levels can go die tho.

    I genuinely feel like I just watched a legitimate, full-fledged tv documentary. The editing is top notch, and the commentary and comedic timing is amazing. The dedication to not only play and complete 13 GAMES in just a week, but doing so while ALSO cracking jokes and constantly changing camera angles is- all while barely holding your sanity together and likely damaging your eyesight- is, well, insane but also incredible and somehow inspiring.
    The mention of your childhood nostalgia for this series from beginning to end really tied this all together, and it really reinvigorated that feeling within me as well.
    This video alone was a journey in it of itself, but I can’t imagine to the full extent what your experience with this could’ve been like, and I likely never will in my lifetime (as I would like to remain at least relatively sane). Your noble sacrifice has not gone unnoticed, nor unappreciated.

      I was a little time-crunched at the end of working on this, but I definitely considered mentioning that. While I did say that Colors has a lot of 2D segments, it is kinda surprising how frequent they are. I think it's just more noticeable (regardless of the actual amount) in Generations because half of the levels are strictly 2D with the 2D Sonic, so one might assume 3D Sonic would have mostly 3D levels, but that's not the case.

      You already mentioned handkerchief wish, but then there's also "do what you think is right" wish. The fact that she thinks stopping Erazor is a "right" thing to do doesn't change the fact that she was outright forced to act.

      Frontiers is a wonderful breath of fresh air compared to the recent 10 years of sonic. I do feel like sega still has a fair bit to go in terms of polishing and flushing out the new formula to make it feel better. They have such an amazing foundation with frontiers that I think it will be hard for sega to screw up the next one (assuming they keep this formula). I can’t wait for some patches to frontiers for some bug fixes/general QoL improvements. They can turn it into a true masterpiece if they can fix the problems the game does have. The story though? Is about what you would expect from a sonic game haha. Gameplay is top tier though.

It's that people are now excusing the metal system as it's a problem that fixes itself, as you play more, you start to know the best route to collect them. And instead of looking at it from a new players eyes, they all look at it from their more expirenced perspective, in other words, their bias to replaying it so often has changed their opinions.

      I loved Sonic Riders Zero Gravity a lot as a kid, the interactive soundtrack was so cool to me, and to this day i still find it a banger.

    this video haunted my reccomended for weeks and im glad i actually got around to watching it despite hating it purely because of the title and thumbnail. youre a great creator and you obviously put a lot of work into this video. As a video maker, if i were to try something like this, id probably quit three days in, or do the whole week and just NEVER get around to editing it. Bravo to you for not only getting this released, but also for making it a legitimately fun and interesting video experience!
    now do all the 2d games

    I cannot help but absolutely ADMIRE the sheer effort this video took to make. This video was a genuine journey and it felt much faster than the hour length it says it has.
    Ending it off with Endless Possibility was the greatest choice ever and it left me feeling kind of hype!!

    you know when you sit down to eat and you got some time to squeeze in a youtube video while doing so, and then after like the 20 mins the video normally ends and you expect to go back to whatever it is you were doing? That was me, about to finish eating and hop off youtube. But then randomly in my recommended i see a hour long video from a youtuber ive never heard of before. I decided to take a peek knowing i probably wouldnt stick around. But instead i sat through the entire thing and loved every second of it. Keep up the good work bro!
