SADX Cr*ppy games wiki article but its honest

Sonic Adventure is a 1998 Dreamcast launch title and is the second Sonic game to make the jump to 3D in the main series. While the terrible original version of the game was well received, the DX version was met with mixed reception by biased critics and purists alike.

1. Due to being "rushed" according to everyones favourite DC purist site, dreamcastify, Sonic Adventure DX is a MUCH more glitchier than the original Dreamcast version it came from. I mean how dare it only have a few glitches even though the dreamcast version has MUCH more? but no, the dreamcast is SO MUCH BETTER and very ahead of its time

2. Despite coming out in 2003, the graphics manage to look WAY worse than the original game which, by the way, came out in Japan in 1998. The lighting is so dull and bleak, how did they screw it up so bad? oh wait a second, the dreamcast version has no lighting at all! we are also going to lie about the cloud effect in sky deck saying its lost the effect even though its still there and i have literally seen it in every single playthrough i have done on the game

3. Transparency is also a major issue, even though no one cares about water textures and it being in 1 stage and 2 hub worlds with the workarounds making textures look blocky and low resolution, but lets not talk about the fact that the water in the dreamcast version looks worse

4. Several textures now have cOmPrEsSiOn ArTiFaCtS that "ruin" the details (this was also the case in Sonic Adventure 2: Battle, because sega are totally lazy and clueless and takashi iizuka is ruining the franchise, even though he hasnt in any way).

5. "ALL" the environments in the game (except for Emerald Coast, Lost World and Mystic Ruins to some extent because it looks like classic sonic instead of modern sonic, and classic sonic is so vibrant, we totally arent biased) are overall more bland and uninteresting to look at, even though mystic ruins looks like puke in the DC version and station square looks like a mexican town because of how overly colourful and nauseating it is.

6. "Inconsistent framerate", the game will CONSTANTLY dip below 60 FPS and even 30 FPS at times, even though this has never happened and it literally lags on dreamcast to 10fps; in addition, several objects didn't have their logic adjusted for the higher frame rate, and have incorrect behaviour, no one even knows or cares about this, but whatever, lets rag on the game for no reason.

7. The newer character models, although are higher poly than the originals and have actual hands, look like plastic due to the "bad lighting" and "clash" with the other characters (most visibly, the echidnas in the past) even though its something called cel-shaded graphics, but no, jet set radio is a complete masterpiece and the best game ever just because its on the dreamcast!.

8. Also these newer character models do not fully fit in the game, because it makes the game look modern, what happened to the 90s aesthetic am i right? im going to storm segas hq like i did when people got hate boners for sonic 4 and im going to jump on the bandwagon again, for example, Sonic's shoes when he runs show incorrect textures, even though his shoes have always been fine, also sometimes Sonic's eyes disappear, and im just going to be ignoring the fact that this only happens in one level though and the characters lose a lot of expressiveness, why cant we go back to the time where sonic spoke gibberish and looked like a furry rodent? because of this, in several scenes the intention is lost, for example, in Tails' story, when Sonic rescues Tails, he doesn't look at his friend in a cheerful way, he just makes a meh expression, even though he doesnt and never did that, but im going to ignore that fact

9. In one scene, Amy's model from the original Dreamcast game is reused, at least get the models right, ugh, absolutely unplayable, im not booting this game up ever again

10. Somehow, some of Knuckles in E3 1999 made it in even though that isnt even possible.

11. The concept of skipping the scenes of the game is garbage, go back to 1999 where you cant skip any and you have to watch the totally amazing ahead of its time cutscenes, the cutscenes are so perfect in this game, i mean cmon, they ruined sonic because they made him look like he speaks! eww, i dont want my characters speaking properly! sonic mania is the best sonic game

12. Eww, the dumbass mission mode nobody liked with the dumb statue moving, but dont mind the fact they added an entire new mode and a purpose for the emblems, because its the dumb trendy gamecube version, and im a dumb 30 year old who likes worse versions of games!

13. The wrong sound effects play and some dont play at all even though nobody has EVER had this problem, but im going to ignore that!

The superior version has nothing for collecting the emblems and the DX version does, im triggered!, and he doesn't even have his own unique animations or gameplay. He's just a dumbass reskin even though he is supposed to be a copy of sonic, wheres my hover ability so i can cheese the levels?

To unlock Metal Sonic, you need to collect all emblems, thats too complicated for me!. In the original game the emblems didn’t serve much purpose other than to be more simple for my dumb brain, so you didn’t have to beat all Chao races or clear all Trial missions as Big, which are commonly known as frustrating. In SADX, however, you have to beat all Big missions and Chao Races to unlock Metal Sonic and get the achievements.This can become frustrating.

OH NO! SOME OF THE SCREENSHOTS ARE THE DREAMCAST VERSION! FALSE ADVERTISING! END OF THE WORLD! I WANT MY MONEY BACK SEGA!

PC and HD versions

The graphics despite being in obvious HD and even 4K, have gotten EVEN WORSE. Textures have more "compression artefacts" and are look much worse than the sacred dreamcast, plus the lighting, despite being improved on, looks MUCH WORSE than the dreamcast version because all hail cybershell.

The trash game gear sonic games are gone! how ever am i going to survive?.

"MeNuS ArE HaRdEr tO NaViGaTe"

All of these versions suck with a dumb compressed intro from the original dreamcast version, once again wheres my money sega?

Butchered audio quality even though it literally sounds the exact same; the PC version uses WMA (Windows Media Audio) format which makes it worse even though it doesnt in any way

The 2004 PC version doesn't scale the HUD, oh no! NOT THE HUD!
