I didn't find it too bad until I reached that stupid boss of Flying Battery Zone Act 2.

I had way too much trouble with that boss....I went back into the Zone to get my last Chaos Emerald and obliterated him with Super Sonic. >_>

Yeah that boss is straight up bullshit

Studiopolis was pretty simple, I thought. But maybe I'm just retconning after playing it more in time trial

i think it is because of the playing the stage more, learning where all the traps are and fastest route.

The dude with the buzz saws? I actually found his pattern pretty quickly. Just stay low and try to make him hit the ground. When he's winding up an attack you should be already spinning getting ready to escape then just jump back and only hit him once before he heals, don't get greedy.

Kinda reminded me of a dark souls boss fight lol

I quite like this recent trend of old school games like Sonic and Crash Bandicoot being difficult props to the Developers

FB act 2 is the spidery one you have to pinball into the spikes. Buzzsaw guy was in Press Garden

Nah the one where you have to hit him into spikes.

First time I played it he gave me a ton of shit before I understood what was going on. It was also around 5am since I stayed up for the 3am release... Eh.

I replayed that level yesterday and didn't have TOO much trouble with it. There were some times where the machine simply didn't react to Sonic flying at it and I tossed myself into spikes which sucked.

I didn't have any issues really with any boss but the Metal Sonic stuff. The final non-all emerald ending boss was pretty easy. I've yet to get all the emeralds because I fucking suck-ass at these UFO special stages.

The only boss I've had a problem with so far I think it was Studiopolis with the missiles. The spider one was easy imo

It reminds me of when Mega Man 9 came out and everyone was complaining it was too hard while I just thought it was pretty par for the course for MM
