I've heard a lot of horror stories from reviewers where they got stuck at Wave Ocean, right at the start of the game, because of how weird the controls were, and ended up getting game overs... before they triggered the save, which then meant they had to start all over, watch the opening cutscene and go back to wave ocean just to get another shot
And with that in mind, it is pretty interesting how Sonic figured out saving before even leaving the Genesis. How did they butcher something that they've had figured out for THIS long?

Those horror stories are legit bullshit. The game has its issues but it’s not unplayable like most people will have you believe. My first time playing the game I didn’t have a single issue at all

At least Shadow’s vehicles didn’t suck as hard as the 3-D Pac-Man vehicles, I never liked the shooter segments. Also Mephiles’ theme legitimately scared the shit out of me when it played in the background, sending a shiver up my spine with no anticipation. Yeesh.....

Honestly when I look at Eggman in this game, I consider him an easy “Low Tier” interpretation.
Design aside (even if it’s like half of why I hate seeing him on screen), the way they make him out to be this villian that does nothing but kidnap Elise, plot about “taking over the world” while hatching dumb plans like “inviting Sonic to Elise’s location” that only really work with this interpretation of Sonic Team.
He just seems like a typical, run-of-the-mill Bond villain. And not the interesting type of bond villian.
Where’s the showmanship? The comedic side that balances out with his cunning, dastardly side?
I’ll at least say this, no other Eggman in the series is ever THIS boring and unremarkable.
