>>713830391 (OP)I'm curious what Sonic R's maps would have ended up looking like if Sega hadn't begged Yasuhara to come in part-way through development to help Traveller's Tales salvage the project.
From what I recall, he still didn't like the final iteration much because he thought the game was flawed on a fundamental level. Something to do with thinking that having the characters handle like cars not being very fun.
