I've comeback to adventure after doing some research.

I originally saw Sonic Adventure as an Action-Adventure platformer but now it's clear it's actually an Adventure-Action game.

In other words, this is an adventure game with action elements rather than an action game with adventure elements.

It's also extremely campy and I love that.

Yea the games good. A genuinely good, well written story and an intricately built world and atmosphere.

There are points I gotta get off my chest though but aren't really worth making a whole review on:

- The setting is meta play on Sonic (The Video Game Icon) existing in the real world. (e.g. Casinopolis, Super Sonic Transformation scene, setting is literally South America but humans distinctively play no role in the story as they are a backdrop)

- The game is meant to be a playable vacation so ironically it's best to play this slow and look around a lot and play with the environments (Trying to move the camera puts you into a first person mode, not because of jank but to simulate a camera/binocular view)

- The gameplay isn't good but it was never the point so it shouldn't really be criticised for it, at worst the action stages bugging out just takes you out the experience, which is easily SA's biggest flaw.

For the love of God, someone make this an actual RPG I beg of you how has it not been made by fans yet i dont understand why people treat this like its a sonic version of Mario 64 when its actually a Sonic version of Metal Gear Solid
