1 is okay, but a bit too oldschool and slow, the levels aren't really built for speed. So it's short, difficult, and doesn't really do anything other than being an average platform game.

2 has a good mix of slow platformer levels and very fast "run and bounce" levels. And often you can skip the slow platformer levels too.

3&K has way way way too long and too easy levels. Some of them like Marble Garden and Lava Reef feels like I'm just running in a maze-like but actually linear path until the level ends.

CD is like Sonic 1 with CD music, time travel gimmick, and the worst boss fights in the entire series (you have to beat one of them literally by holding right).

2 is the best IMO.

Maybe the fact that Stardust has no platforming?

Or Tidal Tempest being Labyrinth but even worse?

Or Metallic Madness being unfinishable if you're in the future timeline?

The level design is lazy and haphazard at worst, and mediocre at best. Like the only passable zones are the first one and Quartz, but they are nothing special compared to most zones from 1-3&K.

Maybe they're the easiest to get lost and/or stuck in, but they're more creative than the average Sonic level and the time travel stuff makes them interesting.

This man is the reason why 1, 2, 3 and Knuckles have the best stages. 3&K's puzzle gimmicks can be attributed to Iizuka; he came up with the barrels, tops, and other elements that break the flow of gameplay. He would also ruin Sonic by making those god awful 3D games for DC. Yasuhara didn't work on CD or Chaotix, which explains why their levels are ass.

You were the one that brought up it's the wealthiest country on earth, I just pointed out how that's not really the case.

I find it funny that your whole argument against me is a bunch of random shit you've made up and convinced that the only people on earth who think Donald Trump is a dipshit must secretly love Hillary Clinton.

That's how stupid you people are. You can't even imagine anything other than what's spoonfed to you. If he doesn't like Trump he must love sucking semen out of Hillary Clinton's shitcock! Those are the only two outlooks!

2 has later levels with cheap enemy placement. It has the best special stages and best level artwork, and best music IMO. I complain about it, but its great.

1 is kind of my favorite, because it just IS sonic without any extra bullshit.

3&K is a little creepy with the Michael Jackson stuff. I also don't like the save memory.

Sonic CD was just kind of neat like Sonic 1.

The level design does suck though. It's unfocused as hell, like they just slapped shit together at random.

But there are people on this board that like Rampage Edition, so level design is clearly not as important to some people.

It's like they want people to admit it's perfect. It has good art and music, granted, but the stages are terrible and make the whole game not worth replaying. Not to mention the shit tier bosses, like someone else mentioned above.

I enjoy the levels and think it's fun as heck. Don't know what else to say that you probably haven't heard before. I love both the original JP games for Genesis.

Savannah is the one that's pretty boring design wise, but it's still fun to run around on and I can never get tired of all the scrolling in the background.

Different people like different things though. I don't like Sonic, but I know a ton of people do. Diff'rent strokes and all that.

Every single Sonic thread on this board has someone whining about CD's "terrible level design". What is terrible about it? Do you think it's slower paced than the others? Bullshit, all of my time attack records in CD are about 30 seconds to a minute and a half, and those aren't perfect, flawless runs either.

There's always bitching about Wacky Workbench, too. You're supposed to jump across the rising/falling platforms, not just hold right and keep bouncing off the floor. If anything, Wacky Workbench is pretty fair, it punishes your mistakes without killing you.

I see plenty of platforming in there. You think you can just hold right to finish Stardust Speedway? Plus, that layout is similar to Star Light, Chemical Plant AND Hydrocity, so I don't see why this is something wrong with CD.
