Ok? Honestly what are we supposed to say to this? You haven't even given any reasons why you think it sucks, am I supposed to read your mind? What happened to putting some actual effort into posting?

>endless instant death crushing traps
>too many “press this switch” gimmicks
>enemy art matches scenery so it’s impossible to find
>background art blends in with foreground in a lot of cases
>the endless slide chasms in ice cap and sandopolis both sucked
>ugliest zones of the series to match the ugliest sonic sprite
>ice cap was a huge slog

Hmmm I see, shit opinions.

Only thing true is that Sandopolis isn't great, but it's better than certain stages in 1 and 2.

Idk OP, I can't say I share most of your gripes with the game. I don't hate it, though I might maybe agree that it's slightly overhyped compared to the others. My current favorite is probably also Sonic CD, but that is mostly due to me being a huge SEGA CD fanatic in recent years. I actually haven't played Sonic 3 & Knuckles in quite some time since I mostly just play 1 or CD nowadays.

1: too weird for me. the levels often want you to go slow, but Sonic runs like a fucker. the graphics scream "early Genesis".
2: Sonic formula perfected. if not for the last few zones and the bonus stages, would be literally perfect.
CD: hipster choice. anyway, it looks like a good game, but the color palette is weird, good/bad future is weird, bonus stages are weird… you get the idea.
3: looks great, but just isn't "it". faggy cutscenes, a bit awkward level design where I never know how to unlock some parts. something about it is just not good.
&K: unironically amazing and better than 3. HUGE fucking first level. hate Sandopolis though.

How does this make it any worse than the other classic games? Personally I like the 3&k sprite the most

>>9897302
Personally cd is my least favorite followed by 2. I just really didn't like the level design in those games and especially in sonic 2 it felt like it punishes you for going too fast. I also despise 2's special stage

>>9897261
Ice cap is awesome and zone 2 has the best music in the franchise.

this zoomie meme has to end. please tell me the exact moment in 2 where this happens, or show a screenshot.

>>9897621
The enemy placements, camera norlt catching up, pitfalls and crushing hazards sprinkled throughout the gsme.

>>9897630
so you can't name an exact instance where this happens. ok.

>>9897237
At least play the Sonic Origins version to get rid of the shit original soundtrack by the chief pedo

>>9897663
It is most of the stages, the later half especially like, metropolis, and sky chase

>>9897261
Most of these are pretty understandable, but I'm surprised you didn't bring up the stupid barrel. Sandopolis and Carnival Night ruin S3 and S&K respectively. It's unfortunate that even this game isn't free of flaws like all Sonic games, maybe the shining exception is Sonic Mania because that one is basically all the previous games but with their flaws plucked out. Also, CD is still the best one because it requires you to use the pinball physics to truly beat it.

>CD
>bonus stages are weird…
They're the best Sonic has ever played in 3D in my opinion. It just feels right to be rushing in a raceway with him, beats Sonic 2's "special" stages any day.

>>9897852
To be honest I really liked Sandopolis act 1. It flowed pretty well and I had fun. Hell I’d say one of the best stages in paired with one of the worst in that zone. I didn’t mind the barrels though, I know it’s a noob trap, but there’s only like 5 buttons that make Sonic do anything.

Do CDnigs really?

This has to be bait.
Literally every classic Sonic game has this to some degree, and S3&K is the one that has the least of it. You just didn't like this one because you're not a kid anymore. Take your nostalgia googles off and play 1 again and see how hard it sucks.
