Refers to sonic and amy path only

Tldr: Few great stages, few mediocre ones, weak boss battles and generally too easy makes SDAX a decent enough experience that makes me believe i can actually really enjoy Sonic 3D, but this is not enough just yet.

SADX feels like a solid proof of concept of a sonic 3d game; Some stages manages to have superb platforming (Sky deck stands out) and good on-rails section (Emerald Coast) that looks visually impressive enough to be fun even if you are obviously not doing much.
However, While some stages stand out, quite a few are forgettable (Windy Valley) or just not good enough, like Twinkle Park which has a solid enough idea and presentation but just lack something to make it actually great stage. Also, The boss battles and enemies in general are so easy, but also not really interesting, mechanically or visually. they are just there, and i think something dont sit right with me and the homing attack - it just makes the game way too easy when it comes to enemies.
The weird airplane sequences also dont really help and just add to the feeling of the game being mixed bag.

This game also made me realize im just not a big fan of sonic as character conceptually. the attitude and the music dont really do much for me, so this probably takes away from the potential of me enjoying it.
