@WhiteTrashGuy I agree with the handheld aspect for sure, I ended up buying it on my PS5 but with my Ayn Odin and the PsPlay app I'm able to remote play the game on the Odin. Honestly, it remote plays 1080p 60fps so I was really pumped to play it portable without having to have the same sacrifices.

Hopefully we get more powerful handheld systems in the future so we don't have to remote play or play with graphical sacrifices.

Honestly after revisiting the series I hope they make some massive improvements. While the game is very polished it's just a bit too easy. Mainly because the gameplay loop is focused around locking on and strafing to win. Aiming isn't required unless you play the trilogy on the wii.

Still an excellent game but idk if i have the same wonder for it as I did when I was a kid.

@KindofaBigDeal Sonic adventure controls great especially sonic. I'd agree that the mech sections are annoying, but outside of those the treasure collecting and sonic/shadow sections are great.

I just played the adventure games just a week or two ago and was very impressed with how well it holds up. I feel like I have more precise movements with sonic in the adventure series than mario in 64 or sunshine. All of which I recently played through, forgot how janky sunshine was.

The criticism that the game takes control away from the player is valid. However, I think it's important if someone wants to make that criticism to also play spark the electric jester 2. Where in my opinion it gives wayyy to much control to the player, to the point that sometimes it's pretty difficult to maneuver.

It's an incredibly tough balancing act in these games.

@Jhena I think the first mana game was good fun for a gameboy game. I loathed secret of mana, I couldn't get over the waiting to attack gameplay, the janky 0-death bosses that spammed magic, which eventually the game became a who can spam magic first to win. Trials of mana was a really good time. I'll try legend of mana tho! I'll probably jump on that once I complete the trials of mana remake.

I feel the quality is more consistent across the soul blazer series than the mana series. But then again I still need to play legend so I'll make sure I play it and then re-evaluate my opinion on the mana series.
