25 years later, I finally beat Bigs the Cat
*Big (I always call him Bigs and feel like I will never learn)
The entire reason I didn't beat Sonic Adventure originally was Big the Cat. I hated that whole storyline so much, and I didn't get the controls at all. I would get so unbelievably frustrated. I love this game, but that damn cat haunts me.
Fast forward to today, my 7 (almost 8) year old is obsessed with the Dreamcast. We are on a quest to beat the game together and having a blast. I tried to go into Big's gameplay with an open mind. I am a mature adult now, my tastes have changed, I am smarter, maybe I will enjoy it this time!
Well, I still hated it. I still didn't get it. It wasn't clicking for me. Googled around and still couldn't figure it out (most people are playing ports I guess.) I was ready to give up, but I know my kid really, really wants to beat this game.
I kept seeing people talk about the tutorial. I was so confused. Tutorial? What tutorial? That must be included in the ports, right, I don't ever remember there being a tutorial.
Of course, there are instructions in the DC version, I just never paid attention it felt like I had been driving around for days refusing to stop for directions, and then once I did it turns out the place was up the street. Beat his storyline in less than an hour with cutscenes. I feel so silly lmao. His game play is extremely easy.
Now I feel like I might be able to stomach his gameplay enough to do full completionist on it. I still don't love the gameplay, but it's a lot more fun now that I actually understand it lmao
