  • I’ve the same opinion you do. I loved to play SA1 and the “adventure field” vs “action stage” thing was the perfect balance between the open world you could explore and the more linear gameplay.

    SA1 was a very good game, then came out SA2, a poorly executed thing that forces you straight into mini game style games, nothing to explore, no hub word to make the experience consistent. SA2 kinda feels like a 2D gameboy-style Sonic game. The way thing were tied together between the story of each character, “adventure field” and “action stage” was just very well thought out-

    And there’s also another problem, the PC version of SA2 is a also a piece of crap. While Sonic Adventure DX wasn’t perfect things actually worked mostly fine out of the box however in SA2 not even gamepads work.

    Btw, I’m looking for this: https://lemmy.world/post/21563379



















  • I guess the current situation could be better if Opera and Brave coordinated among themselves a shared codebase for a patch that would allow both of them to keep v2 working. The thing is that Brave most likely doesn’t actually care, they’ve a built in adblocker so if v2 goes away then their marketshare will increase. Opera can’t do it alone because, well it is the Opera Chinese owned company after all.

    I was really hopping that Microsoft would take on this, think about it, from a strategic PoV if Edge kept v2 and advertised it they could just snatch a big chunk of users from Google.
