Sonic Adventure 2 is my favorite game of all time. It's a huge comfort game for me, and I love it to pieces.

The mech stages and treasure hunting levels are not my favorite, by any means, but I don't think they're bad. Playing through them once for the main story isn't horrible, and once you get a hang of them and start going for max points it's pretty fun. Though some stages are better than others, obviously. Regardless I see why people dislike them and don't blame them. But they aren't a game breaker in my opinion.

The best part of the game by far are the speed levels, aka Sonic and Shadows levels. If you like platformers, racing games, or really any fastpaced action shit, you'll probably really like these stages. They're incredibly well designed and kick ass. It's just a lot of fun.

The thing I love about this game, though, is the vibe. The aesthetic, story, soundtrack. It's all so unique and distinctly early 2000s. It's just a blast to experience, and like nothing else I've played before.

Overall the outlook I have on Sonic Adventure 2 is that the game is insanely fun. Good? Bad? Who cares. I enjoy it, you might enjoy it, it's worth a try. If you don't like the mech or treasure hunting stages, just download a save online and play through the speed stages.

(even though I still slightly prefer Sonic 3 & Knuckles because of the better polish)
