@@Bombastic_daioh agreed, but that's moreso with the controls imo, I'm not a huge fan of how he controls in Mario 64, the way he has to walk in a little circle to turn makes precision a pain and wall jumps are very awkward. Don't get me wrong, I like Mario 64, but those have always been some of my big gripes. That is what I mean by "Janky in a way that does make it more difficult." The turning circle and wall jumps *definitely* make it more difficult. Edit: and I agree with Sonic Adventure not being all that janky, but it's janky enough that it gives the game some charm.

Sonic Can Just Walk or Jump On the Button to Activate it, He Doesn't Have to Charge the LightSpeed Dash to Hit it. The LightSpeed Dash is Used to Follow Trails of Rings. The Likely Reason You Think That's the Case is Because the Particles For the Charge can For Some Reason Interact With a Couple Things (Such as the Buttons), and SpeedRunners Use That to Their Advantage

I disagree with your point about Sonic Adventure 1 aging like "insert bad", I just beat Sonic Adventure DX for the first time with conversion mods for it to be like the Dreamcast version (DX version is worse in a lot of aspects), fully, and it was wonderful and fun, you just have to embrace its goofiness too. This was the era where Sonic embraced his cool as before there was a divide on if he was supposed to be cool or cute, and it had a nice story that was shown from various perspectives, name a game that came out before this and had 6 or 7 playable characters with one story from different perspectives, I don't think you can, so you have to appreciate it for what it is, and for comparison Mario 64 was created in 1996 and this 2 years later is like 3x better, I could say Mario 64 aged like "insert bad" too or Sonic 1&2&3&Knuckles aged like "insert bad".

[@3ndgamer28]

This is how you know that sonic was dreamt up to rival mario in a “Anything you can do, I can do better.” Kind of way. Though I will say mario’s play through was impressive even though some points would be unplayable without sonic’s speed and that being said, Mario really let you see the sites instead of speeding around from place to place.

Okay, but now you have to fight perfect Chaos as Mario with the power star.

@@AztecCroc considering this is just a fun crossover mod, I would value accuracy over difficulty. But also, Sonic health system already makes it fairly hard to die other than to instant kills, which from watching this video appeared to be the largest challenge here anyway.
