My favorite thing is the super-easy glitch to trigger where you kill the Egg Wyvern by making it de-spawn. Set Sonic's Sky Blue Gem. And throw it right before you homing attack to catch the Egg Wyvern. While Sonic's grabbed on, he'll be launched to where the Gem landed, but the Wyvern will keep flying away like Sonic's holding onto it, into the void. And the battle just ends.
What's weird about the Biolizard is that despite being this monstrous kaiju it's apparently smart enough to follow Gerald's revenge instructions. I assume he somehow programmed a "will" of sorts and instructions for the creature after Maria was killed but before they caught him. I agree its death could be seen as an (unintentional) Mercy Kill; what little we get about it implies it used to be a normal lizard that was mutated into the monstrosity we see
Some of the late game level design felt much more dickish than classic Sonic but was otherwise fine. Though why even acknowledge 06? It non-canonized itself for the fans. Also there were no good levels to bring back (for the record, Crisis City is fine in Generations). On the topic of weird levels to bring back, why Planet Wisp? It's already my least favorite world in Colors. Would've prefered Aquarium Park or Starlight Carnival.

Once Upon A Time.I like Crisis City in Generations, but I still firmly believe Kingdom Valley would've been the CORRECT choice for an 06 level. There's too many city levels in Generations, even if this one is destroyed and on fire.
I like Planet Wisp, but I think Starlight Carnival or Asteroid Coaster would be cool choices.
Still can't believe Generations didn't have any level DLC, other then the pre-order bonus Casino Night pinball stage... Well, I guess in a way, NOW its finally getting new levels. If you're okay with Shadow focus.

Radical Train and Crisis City were 2 pretty good levels to bring back.
Conceptually.
They chose the more visually interesting one.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.I beat Sonic's scenario in Sonic Superstars. Of all of the games released in 2023 that was certainly one of them. I'll never get how people prefer Superstars just for having original zones when the new zones are much blander and less imaginative than Mania's reimagined zones. The levels themselves are meh. I played them, they're fine I guess. The bosses are horrible with the Egg Diablo being a prime example of their horrible design. I guess I have the extra scenario to do next.
Once Upon A Time....Fuck it, hate to say it, but I'm going to be that guy: the problem with Sonic 06, absolutely wasn't the level designs, they were nothing short of immaculate across the board. Were the controls to be more polished than they were, we would be having a far different conversation surrounding Sonic The Hedgehog (2006)... but the controls and glitches are the problem, so... tough luck unfortunately.
Self-professed Wild Card who thinks cynicism isn't so bad.There's no one problem with 06. You can't narrow it down. It is a atrocity across the board.
... Except the music.
You are not alone.A new wave of Sonic Nex Gen being seen as bad?
I guess this is a nice experience.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.I'm not saying that Sonic '06 is a good game or the likes, GOD NO, dunking on it is actually one of my favorite pastimes. The beastiality kiss, the fact that Blaze and Amy are underutilized, the glitches, the stiff controls, collision detection being RNG, for fuck's sake, the game itself made for one of the funniest videos Lythero has ever put out, the game is a platinum mine for riffing material.
...But I'm standing by what I said about the actual level design itself actually being really well thought-out, and the music, as per series tradition, being filled to the brim with bangers. There's a mod to the game, of folks setting out to make the game good, and like the one thing they didn't need to change, was the level design.
(That being said, even I'm not defending the ball puzzle, FUCK the ball puzzle.)
Self-professed Wild Card who thinks cynicism isn't so bad.It's not bestiality.
Sonic isn't a real life fucking hedgehog he's a fictional character who's fully capable of perceiving the world the same way humans can, and only has superficial similarities with the animal he's named after.
Just say you think the kiss is stupid and move on.

The kiss is fine...
Everything leading up to it makes it not earned though.
