  • It's been a while, huh? I took a little vacation because I was moving, but I'm back and feeling better than ever! Sonic adventure is one of my favorite games of all time and I had to make up for that really short video I made about it before. This is my emotional deep dive into Sonic Adventure!
    The Sonic Adventure of a Lifetime, you could say.

    Fun fact, since Sonic and Knuckles are in sky deck at the same time, Knuckles is the one that is causing the ship to turn for sonic because thats a mechanic in his stage, where knuckles has to press a lever to tilt the ship. I always interpreted it like that, anyways.

    Sonic Adventure 1 always has a special place in my heart. It's the first Sonic game I've ever played, it introduced me to this franchise in a big way, I enjoyed the story, the characters, the gameplay, the banger soundtrack -- this game is a gem, and I'm glad you got to talk about it.

      My dad used to be a massive video game lover so naturally, he bought a lot of games home. I was already in a pretty big sonic phase after watching sonic x and playing the 2d games but when my dad gave me sonic adventure DX (yeah I know it’s the bad version but it’s still great) it has become the most memorable part of my childhood. The music, stages and cutscenes all still replay in my head to this day. I only recently got back to revisiting sonic and when I replayed sonic adventure for the first time in over a decade, I got super emotional and actually teared up on several occasions remembering the younger days on my pc mindlessly running through the beach, casinos and icy mountains while jamming to the music not realising how much this will end up meaning to me. It’s a child’s game with a lot of flaws but it’s weird to think that it ended up meaning so much to me and my childhood.

    Knuckles being the last echidna has always been an interesting concept to me. What happened to his parents? He must've come from somewhere. Does the master emerald practice population control by culling all echidnas except the guardian to ensure that history doesn't repeat? I wish his lore would be expanded upon. Knuckles has a lot of potential of being a very interesting character, in the same way Shadow is.

    Honestly one of the reasons I was a big fan of Sonic x was because of it having the same art style as adventure. Honestly I would love an anime based the adventure titles and other that share it’s art style ( battle, rush, chronicles, 06 but written well, heroes, secret rings, black knight, and the advanced series.)

  • @rynobehnke8289
    @rynobehnke8289 Рік тому +1

    Fun video.
    Just a very few things I would like to mention.
    On the Echidna history thing the Japanese exclusive SA1 guide book "the Sonic Adventure navigation guide" actually goes into detail on that one.
    Tikal was able to stop the Echidna's before they were completely wiped out. They created the mural in Lost world as a warning for the future and than used the Master Emerald to lift a peace of the earth into the sky so creating Angel Island in an attempt to make it harder for Chaos to ever be released with the Echidna's dedicating them self to guard the emerald.
    After about 3000 years of isolation on the Island did they numbers dwindle to just 1 that being Knuckles.
    (Yes 3000 years. For what ever reason did most official references to the age of the echidna always place it 3000 years in the past in the Japan and 4000 in the rest of the world)
    Knuckles doesn't fall for Eggman imminently he first does when he mistakes the Green Chaos Emerald for a shard of the Master Emerald which at first would appear to be prove that Eggman wasn't lying.
    Big really is Sonic Adventure's special stage.
    I have to ask how is SA2 better?
    Sure the light-speed dash on one button is better but most other things are rather subjective. Especially as SA1 has a rather different approach to level design than SA2.

    • @coatimundi69

    21:46 I didn't see the rest of the video so you might explain this later on but the reason why the gravity is switching around is because Knuckles is on the Egg Carrier as well switching the gravity to get the last pieces of the master emerald. Kinda doesn't make sense since it's in the same place and Sonic, Tails and Knuckles should see each other but, yeah...

    If you look at Eggman in Adventure 1, the creation of Chaos Gamma out of regret for Gamma is in a sense a foreshadowing of bringing Sage back to life, and it is a great scenario that clearly shows what to do with an existence that he does not show affection for.

    It would’ve been really cool if Sonic tried to pull a Sonic CD and launch himself to the Egg carrier after Red Mountain, but fails
    He panics, but hears Tails and is relieved
    Tails shouts : Sonic!
    Sonic exclaims happily: Tails, you’re okay, I was so worried.
    Tails responds : hey I learned from the best, I wouldn’t go down that easy. Looks like I got here just in time.
    Sonic states : you sure did, are you okay? I assume you have a plan to take down the Egg carrier’s defenses? I think Eggmans getting serious this time.

Or Chao World Extended which adds TONS of new stuff to the Chao Garden it feels like a real DLC expansion for it.

    I was actually more excited about this game than Mario 64; got it along with my Dreamcast on its US launch. Yeah, SA2 is better in almost every aspect, but SA1 still somehow feels better. An overall amazing sendoff to Sega as a hardware maker as well.

    My god I hate the Dreamcast graphics. Dreamcast version is overrated and DX is underrated. High poly Sonic and colorful levels >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Super Mario 64 Sonic and depressed levels.
