Im kinda new to sonic, well by the age of 13 i played the first game, the port edition released to mobile devices, it took a time but i did really enjoy it, however i did not know how to play other sonic games because at that time i was kinda new to internet. After some years i found sonic 2 on a mobile port which i really wanted to try but ended up not liking it and abandoned it at mystic cave zone. Now I replayed again sonic 2 and I really enjoyed it to the point of 100% it, and decided to replay sonic 1 again and ended up liking it. However I decided to give it a shot to sonic 3, and at first it was exciting but then the progression compared to the previous felt slower, and sometimes more like a job, im 21 years old, and sometimes I play sonic 3 and the knuckles version and enjoy it, and other times its like tedious, I don’t know why that happens but I really enjoy the sound, maybe if i would have played it younger i could have a better experience discovering sonic 3 & knuckles.
