Sonic Adventure in Another Timeline

- What if Sonic Adventure kept the classic designs for all the characters and stuck with a similar design philosophy to the classic games? I’m just using mods in the SADX version of Steam for this!
The video being 16:9 instead of 4:3 is a mistake.
This is one of my weaker videos admittedly. I was still figuring some stuff out here, but I hope you enjoy it anyway!

Wow! This is suddenly getting a fair amount of views. When I originally put this video together, I didn’t really intend for so many people to watch it! I don’t feel that it’s my best work really, but I appreciate it anyway.
People are pointing out that the video is 16:9 (widescreen) instead of 4:3, and this was not intentional on my end. If I had known that this many people would be watching the video, I’d have presented it that way instead honestly! My other videos published after this are 4:3 because this was one of my earliest videos! I was still learning and messing around, so that’s all this is the product of. Feedback is always appreciated!

Did they bring back Jun Senoue in this universe?
The algorithm picked this video up it seems.
its really a matter of time before this hits at LEAST 100k views. phenomenal video, i live for content like this.
Time Traveller: Sneezes in Yuji Naka's face
Timeline:
I'm dyin😂
@@jimmy33musicSo is Yuji Naka after that time traveler infected him with COVID
It's rare that I see a demake mod list that's so convincing with so little. The polygon counts are still too high and the controls don't have that Saturn clunk, but this reminded me of the 3d sonic I was certain we were going to get in the Saturn days. Ty for this, I think it healed something for my inner child
I don't think it's meant to be on Saturn
This isnt a demake. Its just using classic sonic designs. Basically the sonic equivalent of render96.
Soon my man, I'm convinced that before we die someone will port this game to the Saturn.😊
It's still using the Sonic Adventure engine. Just a mod.
A lot of things that could of and should of happened back then just never took place which pains me also
i love how the music is on an absolute incline of saturn 3d blast, sonic r, and sonic jam; its quite mesmerizing. it makes me feel comfy inside
Right? The music just fits completely in each section.
This would have been the true Mario 64 rival imo
Isnt SA1 already that?
Its more like sunshine @@nordicohahah
@@hazemimam6826sa2 would rival sunshine since sunshine came out a year after- so sa1 would be the rival to 64 since sa1 came out 2 years after
@@realyungjon true
@@realyungjon but dreamcast is game cube level that why i said sunshine and sa came after 64 after long time just like u said
ripped straight out of a parallel universe
The gran turismo 3 menu effects are a nice touch lmao
I always had this weird feeling like I wish we coulda seen a game like this just before Sonic Adventure.... JUST ONE. And I would have been satisfied. Maybe with different levels so it's not repetitive. But this does bring to like what a game, at all, like that could look like. Especially the stages that are drastically changed.
I hear ya… more of a contemporary to SM64 and Crash Bandicoot. Would’ve been nice.
Try sonic robo blast 2!
the music sounds so good with the static effect and the low bit rate
This is like sonic fever dream, when your dream puts together sonic adventure and you have a fever.
Okay but why does this look so lit. This is more nostalgic than the game I actually played.
This feels a little uncanny, honestly feels like I'm peering into another universe that I'm not supposed to see
I've honestly never felt so taken away. The imperfections - static white noise, slight pitch alterations of stage music and ring noise, and annoying repetitiveness of Sonic saying "Here we go!" with each box break doesn't sound like an oversight of today, but I can feel and I could see it being an "accepted" flaw because this would've been the first time Sonic had a voice... so it really does feel like this came out in 1998 in a separate entity of the universe than ours.
Thanks for making this.
Our Universe: Modern Sonic exists.
This Universe: Classic Sonic Forever =)
Our universe: damn bro this new modern sonic game slaps!
This universe: this new WHAT sonic game slaps? There's only one sonic.
What would Sonic Generations be like in this universe?
@@TheUnReal_Pumpkiannonexistent
@@HealingVoice39 fair enough
@@TheUnReal_Pumpkian sonic 1 classic sonic and this videos classic sonic.
I'll confess, this was a rather hypnotic video.
same, just wanted to watch 3 or 4 seconds, ended up watching the whole thing lol
The Sonic 3D Blast Invincibility Music for the Speed Shoes was a great fit, and it definitely brought me back!
Tails being a fast travel system is not only really cool, but also a really nice quality of life that happens in this timeline... Makes me wonder what the other's would've had, like would Gamma just use his own rotor's to fast travel?
feels oddly… correct.
Yeah
I cannot begin to describe how fantastically old school this looks and feels. You did a wondrous job at recreating a Sonic game that feels like it'd come out around the days of Mario 64 innovation! 😊👍
Uekawa: hiccups and never thinks of Modern Sonic's design
funnier yet, in this timeline the classic design would simply have slicker renders and artworks maybe just like we were shown when Uekawa tried to modernize the character
@@AltKaxREALhonestly bugs me classic sonic is always based on the sonic 1,CD, and 2 artwork, and not the 3&K sprite and the artwork afterwards
@@Supersonicspyro me too, i feel like they're really trying to sell his as the cuter younger Sonic
May not be our Sonic Adventure but may the universal traveler who shared this know, It's still perfect.
seeing this doesnt feel off at all, like it feels like this is actual real and it happened even though i know this isnt the right one. i cant describe it well but its oddly Nostalgic as if i somehow actually played this version even though its fake.
I love how raw this looks
That would be cool tails following you around not just in the levels on the map too
Imagine if this was released in 1995 or 96, might have saved the Sega Saturn.
Impossible to render this on the Saturn
@@thewindthatblowsYes this is just simplified Sonic and Tails models running in an unaltered Sonic Adventure environment. Saturn could push maybe half this many polygons running pedal to the metal as in the Shenmue demo and then still the textures wouldn’t be filtered snd as high-res.
Somewhere out there, this is a 5 or 6 year old's first exposure to the sonic series and say they remember seeing this as a kid 8 or 9 years from now.
This is literal heaven
The fact the mod or (whatever it is) still left the visual bug where tails has 9 tails is hilarious.
I don't think that's a bug, I always took that to be an attempt to convey that the tails were moving so fast that the in game camera wasn't able to capture a stable image but instead of doing it by creating a smear frame version of the Tails' tails (which would also need to work from multiple viewing angles) their solution was to have more of them added to his back that used the same animation but offset by a bit.
I figured it was done that way due to the inexperience the team had with 3D animation, because nothing else gets smear frames, not even Sonic's feet. I'm pretty sure that the whole game was animated by making key frames and tweening between them, with a lot of stock animations being re-used multiple times, so I imagine that they didn't have a lot of time to experiment with it.
They were also going for realism (at least as realistic as you could manage on your first attempt at a fully 3D game with an obligation to be the most important launch title for an entirely new console with full voice acting and 7 story campaigns with unique levels and gameplay for each) so using animation techniques associated cartoons might have felt antithetical to that goal.
Sad thing is that if they'd just done what Rayman 2 did and have the helicopter effect be an animated sprite on a flat plane it would have looked far better and not been so odd.
WDYM " weaker videos admittedly" !?!?! THIS LOOKS AMAZING!! it was pretty cool that you compilated all the mods and edited the whole thing, thats a lot of work too, thanks for sharing this with us
Well, when I originally uploaded this my channel was very small and I didn’t expect people to see it! I could nitpick some things like the aspect ratio not being 4:3 and the buzzing sound being too loud, but ultimately I am glad people are enjoying it! Thank you for the nice comment :)
The buzzing sound is in fact a little much, but others seem to appreciate it more so idk.
that's weirdly comforting for some reason
This is the best video I’ve ever seen, I think. It hits me, in all of the ways, there is so much emotion and power in the nuance of this video bro
Super cool! I will admit I like the bounce in Sonic’s step in the Real SA. But this was super rad. Loved the music references. Everything from OVA to Sonic R
But holy shit the flying with tails to different parts of the map is the coolest thing. Wish that was in the OG game.
this is from a timeline where sonic didnt ended up being mid
Imagine Modern Sonic never exists
It's crazy to think the sonic franchise could of came to an end if it wasn't for the creation of sonic adventure, this mod just makes me realise how different things could of been if sonic's design was never modernised
I gotta say, the only thing that's not really vibing with me is that goofy run cycle. Other than that, this is about as flawless as it gets.
If this was actually in the game, I’ll be better if it wasn’t for all the mouth movements that seems like the jaw is about to be broken and including the characters.
this genuinely puts a smile on my face
LOVE the CRT TV fuzzy noise. Takes me back :') I would love more dance pop music for SA (with the rock music because that soundtrack is great).
absolutely amazing. keep up the fantastic work
Fun fact: Sonic Adventure was supposed to be a Sega Saturn game featuring the classic Sonic in full 3D, but they made Sonic Jam instead.
14:37 ASTAL MUSIC?! Instantly liked! I love that game!
Yoo! This looks so cool! I def need to play this!
Also, the part where Tails can fly Sonic around the map is cute ^^
loved the use of sky high from daytona usa in station square!
The colors on the levels look amazing. Very fitting. You should feel proud with what you've accomplished!
Really well done video and a good showcase of Some SADX mods
rather unfortunately analog horror has conditioned me to hear static white noise and slightly non-standard video game content and therefore assume that it's gonna cut to black, show sonic's face and say something with the SA font like "we had some good times together, didn't we Harry?"
just to be clear, it is really cool though!
edit: I just heard Back in Time from Sonic R for daytime speed highway, and that fits really well for the overall subject matter xd
This video was awesome, keep up the great work!
Awesome Video!
Yo, being able to see Twinkle Park from Station Square is crazy
My gripe with this is that constant buzzing sound. It's fucking maddening.
Sorry it bothers you so much! I never intended for this video to blow up the way it has, and it was an extremely amateur attempt at the time. I found a better balance for the buzzing sound in later videos, where you can actually barely hear it. I’ve acknowledged this issue multiple times with others in this comment section, so I understand!
Hearing the gt3 menu sounds and Daytona's sky high feels extremely cursed, yet oddly fitting (although thats more on japanese games using similar sounds and music styles in general)
This is the best showcase I’ve seen of the adventure saturn mod.. don’t sell yourself short!
hotel sega saturn... love that, plus that tails flying to different locations is very cool too, wish it was really like that
I love this!❤
we would've got classic big and Omega if sonic Adventure looked like this
I feel that those characters would fit quite well in the classic universe! Especially Big, who’s prototype design is one that I think really works
This is gud stuff!
Me on my way to build a time machine so I can branch to this timeline:
strangely comforting
This hits so many feelings inside me i almost think i'm being assaulted.
Idk its gives me a nice feeling. Thx for that
This actually makes sense since now apparently Sonic superstars takes place Before Sonic’s Adventures 1 & 2
This universe's version of the Sega Saturn was built different with graphics like this in assumably 1995, and the same can be said for universe's version of Tails. If you thought Tail's ability to fly far distances and ignore any platform challenges below was broken, this version of Tails at 14:50 turns into a fast travel mechanic while carrying Sonic. He doesn't even need the Tornado, he is the tornado!
HERE WE GO
the music in beta windy valley gives me a sense of peace I haven't felt in a while, I wonder if there's a video out there with that exact version of the song, pitch tone and all
Imma need more of this , like ASAP ! 👏🏾💎
Who knew old Dreamcast footage would be in 16:9 💀💀jk I know it’s a mod for steam version but fr good job. 🔥🔥🔥
Feels so weird seeing speed highway without baller music
i think this would be a lot more convincing if the aspect ratio was 4;3 but its still so cool to see and really well done!
Yeah, I agree! Maybe I’ll redo this one in the future
Sonic Adventure in the best timeline.
Those fucking gran turismo sounds.
This was such a blast to watch! Is there any way you could share the music tracks that were used?
He is SO adorable. this breaks my heart with what we couldve had
Interesting. I like the (beginning) music
The perfect timeline where modern Sonic doesn’t exist, and Sonic is just… Sonic. Bliss.
Third-rate game reviewer / video essayists be like: "Sonic had a GREAT transition to 3D!"
Homeboy needs to get a capture card already.
Was that your whole modlist in the correct order as read in your description? I want to play this exact experience cuz it looks awesome. May you help?
absolutely love this. I wish Tails eyes were as lit up as sonics
Me too! Sadly the Sonic 1 Sprite Model mod only has a model for Sonic, so I had to do my best and used the Prototype R models for the other characters to at least match the classic look!
wow, this game looks so much better now
Classic 3d sonic will always be the best 3d sonic
I love the music
So dope
Feels like one of those games you were meant to play, but just never got to.
I didn't think Spring Stadium's theme would fit this well with Speed Highway
it makes me think of another timeline where technology was slightly ahead of its time for the era
What Sonic the Hedgehog 2 would've looked like if it was made during the late 90s.
This could have been real if they got their stuff together in the 90's and stopped trying to make Sonic Xtreme and re-release the Genesis titles.
Fun fact: in sonic adventure prototype the models are from sonic jam mostly they are placeholders
This is also the timeline where we still use analog recording hardware instead of digital software.
What would generations look like in this timeline? Would it even exist?
Looks lovely! Is this playable?
what’s all the music in this i’m obsessed
I hope I can change the music in this one. Livin in the City is just more fitting.
is this the earlie beta of sonic adventure if it is wow prettie cool
it would have been so cool that you could unlock classic sonic/tails/knuckles/etc
Lowkey how it should of been, also all this needs is a drop dash 😮💨
I wanted to see lots of new models for the other characters
so cute
I want to be in this timeline
