However, it still does not change that there are some aspects of the storyline that are interesting on their own merits. The way that Sonic says, for instance, sounds like something out of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon, the way how each character’s leitmotif is a vocal song with lyrics about their back story and motivation, and the general lack of subtlety just gives off a really charming feeling to it, and is one of the few things I’d describe as “so bad it’s good.” It is hard to not have a smile on your face due to the sheer corniness of the game’s dialogue and presentation. Despite this, the game held a unique charm to it that drew me to it.
Even as a kid I was able to understand the problems with the game’s writing and easily understood what others criticized it for. The writing is very stiff and basic, oftentimes to the point of being laughable. The story in Sonic Adventure is mostly a mixed bag.
The flaws were more grating, but the good parts of it were more apparent and I still had quite a bit of fun with it. After replaying it, my opinion is mostly reaffirmed except that I found them more emphasized. Looking back on it, I always noticed that there were some flaws with it but still felt nostalgia for it anyway. Sonic Adventure was a game that I grew up with, and recently took the opportunity to replay through its steam port that I got on sale.
