Sonic 3 is the only game he's been kind towards and that's it. I stopped watching their Sonic Generations let's play because i am tired of hearing his snide comments.

Man I'm glad they made the Deadly Six interesting in dynamic in the comics. Because yeah, they are basically demons that are just evil for the sake of it, but their use and the dive into Zavok's mentality were appreciated.

[@thevenomspino]

To be fair, you can do pretty much anything with the Deadly Six and they would be more interesting than any of their game appearances. That's how low the bar is for them

[@Ability-King-KK]

There's honestly nothing wrong with villains who are evil for the sake of being evil. Frieza, Doflamingo, and DIO are prime examples of this.

[@thevenomspino]

@Ability-King-KK Yeah, big difference, those villains are actually interesting. The Deadly Six are the most generic, boring ass villains you can think of. So the comic having something that makes them interesting makes them immediately better than any of their appearances in the games.

[@Da_ComputerMonster]

How is Sonic the IDW Comic been doing? I only cared about Scrapnik Island, but the main series never got to me. But from what I peaked out, besides the 1st arc where Eggman was missing; There's Zombies, FOX Hound is in this, they made Scourge a girl now, Lemur & Sniper Wolf be boot kicking, Puppet continues to be useless, & most of the character designs make me ANGRY cause they could look so much more than just "Sonic but different animal"

The B button thing was intentional. You can use it to double jump whereas A would homing attack, so you can use it to ignore enemies by double jumping instead of being forced to himing attack them.

[@heroofthevoir7041]

I love Eggman's face when he goes "If you insist" XD

[@sharinganmoon]

At 10:10 what John is talking about was actually a deliberate feature. If you use only the B button, you can only double jump. You have to press the a button to do the homing attack in the Wii U version. When they originally released this game, I remember Aaron Weber talking about it in demos, Sonic Team wanted to have a button separate from the homing attack button to let people double jump without accidentally homing attacking.

[@PhoeniksStorm]

18:28 What Uncle said right here got me thinking. Zazz should really have used the spikes on his wrist, maybe they could extend. And then I got thinking that each member of the Deadly Six should have a second form they can turn into. That expands on their individual designs

[@dragnjames2190]

16:18 The problem I have with parkour in Lost World is the devs don't TRUST the player to use parkour intuitively or to experiment with it on their own enough. Every single time in Lost World where the game offers you the option to use parkour, there is an invisible "safety spring" that pops out of walls to save Sonic incase you mess up. These kinds of safety nets and lack of faith in the player kills any potential that parkout ever had in Lost World. ( They pull this handholding shit again in Forces to an even worse degree in Classic Sonic's levels and the Avatar stages with the invisible springs. ) Ironically, Lost World 3DS doesn't hold your hand with it's parkour system and it's commonly agreed to be the better version of the mechanic compared to the HD counterpart.

[@cherrycreamsoda4253]

To answer the homing attack question (unless it’s been answered), the Wii U version was always programmed to where you have to h it B then A (or A then A) for the attack. They changed it when it got the PC port to just be A then A for the attack like in the other games. Also for the “is super sonic in this” query, he is! You just gotta get all the red rings.

Zavok is the only one of the new villains from Lost World that I can remember the name of, but I don't think it's because he is particularly memorable. I think it is more so because for a while Sega seemed to really want to push him. They put him in Sonic Forces (complete with a boss fight which is more than most of the returning villains got), he's in the Olympic Games series, and they put him in Team Sonic Racing. I completely forgot Zazz's name before this video, but I at least remembered him a little bit because he was in the original Sonic Dash and I played that game quite a bit back in the day.

[@c.creature156]

Oh boy. Was always wondering when you guys get to Lost World. This is gonna be an interesting LP. Also regarding two things you guys mentioned: - Jump/Double Jump is mapped to both A and B buttons, but Homing Attack is only mapped to A. I think there was a complaint on live demos before the game came out where people were accidentally doing the Homing Attack when they didn’t want to, so they mapped the actions weirdly like that. It’s the same way on Steam/PC too, but A and B swapped spots on the controller (unless you’re using a Switch Pro Controller or any other regular Nintendo controller). - The chaos emeralds are in this game, but they act similar to Colors where you have to collect all of the Red Rings in an area to get one. So if you guys want to show Super Sonic, you gotta get all of the Red Rings.

[@HyperSonic1999orJTH]

I'm pretty sure the B button not being able homing attack is intentional as it's the secondary Button and the A Button is the main button. Having the option to choose between wanting to homing attack the enemy/spring or double jump over it to keep your pace up or avoid being hit by an enemy who is either guarded or can only be kicked. it's quite useful when S ranking time trials.

I remember reading an interview that, one of the guys at Sonic Team, said that he wanted to see Sonic surpass Mario once again (like he did in the 90s, up until the Saturn era). That is going to be a tough challenge. Unlike Mario, Sonic has been going through hard times over the years. Both 3D and 2D (I'm looking at you, Sonic 4). Sega not making the best decisions, shooting themselfs in the process... Yeah, it's going to be a tough challenge.

[@HidekiNishi7]

Another difference I found out with the Steam version of this game: Because they removed the Wii U version's Circus Minigames from the Steam version, they significantly lowered the Animal-count in that version.

Oh boy, time for another dumpster fire playthrough like Sonic Superstars! Gotta say though, related to Greg’s statement about the aesthetic of this game, Iiii don’t like Lost World’s aesthetic at all. You can argue it’s more like the classic games; I just think it’s reductive of the classic aesthetic to make every single stage have checkerboards and abstract shapes like Green Hill Zone, only swapping out color palettes to match the new environments. Even Sonic 1 had more spiky, dungeon-like themes in Marble Zone, squared grids of industrialization in Spring Yard Zone, slopes and a general “starry sparkle” motif in Star Light Zone, etc; this game’s aesthetic is painfully dull compared to any other game. Heck, I’d take Forces’s level aesthetics over this.

The Deadly Six may not be the best villains, but I wouldn't say they're bad villains. It's funny when Sonic meets them and interacts with them, especially Zeena.

This way you don't have the colors and forces problem of homing attacking something when you wanted to double jump.

Lost World is a perfectly fine game. I would actually say it's a good game. It does have its own problems, the writing being chief among them. But the main problem it had going against it was that it was such a departure from the boost formula Sonic Team had damn near perfected with Generations, to the point where for the first time in really long time, since the Adventure games really, fans were legitimately excited for the next mainline 3D Sonic game. With the mindset that the next game would be a continuation/further refinement of the 2.5D gameplay Generations had, but with mostly or all new original level themes. And then Lost World was revealed, and it showed such a drastic and unnecessary change that it rubbed a lot of fans the wrong way. And the fact that the game, while I would consider good, is not on the same level of quality as Unleashed, Colors, or especially Generations, beforehand, it just rubbed salt on the wound. It was yet another example of Sonic Team needlessly reinventing the wheel for the sake of keeping things "fresh and new" when they already had something great going. And it made what is actually a perfectly fine 7 - 7.5/10 game get shredded and blasted and made to look like a bad and hated 4.5 - 5/10 game.
