Message: [QUOTE="Ikagura, post: 74401, member: 6930"] Honestly as jank as the first Adventure was I think that at least this was a fully fledged RPG-esque spinoff that tried to give a hub and upgrades. I don't get why Adventure 2 reintroduced upgrading your character since 80% of these items are mandatory to advance in the game (unless you're using glitches) like the drill claws for Knuckles, the Jet Boosters for Tails/Eggman and the bounce bracelet for Sonic and fire one for both him and Shadow. Yes, you can play previous levels with those upgrades to help you to skip some areas (even SA1 had some rare light dash sections meant for replayability) but only the Mystic Melody is the real "post-game upgrade" for your characters regarding many missions (especially the missing Chao ones). If they removed hub then the whole exploration aspect is useless aside from side missions. Thankfully Heroes finally included lightspeed dash for Sonic and Shadow and the level up system is only for your character's power. PS: yeah, unleashed did that back but they got hubs. Colours had the excuse to have Wisps to unlock so you could replay stages with them in mind. [/QUOTE]
