Trying (and Failing) to Love Sonic Adventure 2 - A Retrospective

After learning to love Sonic Adventure recently, I was excited to give the sequel the same shot, to see if maybe I'd come around on Adventure 2 as well. Sadly, that didn't happen - with so many odd changes and decisions made, I find Sonic Adventure 2 to be a flat-out weird game. BUT, thanks to my research into Sonic Adventure 2's unbelievably chaotic development, I understand what happened. Even if I didn't find much to love about it, I found a ton to appreciate about this weird game...even if it may not be in the way that long-time fans would agree with.
