When Sonic 3D blast came out, I was like this is the next step in the Sonic evolution then I played it and I was like: .

This was coming off Sonic 3 and Knuckles too.

Ever since, I tuned out and I never could enjoy a Sonic game again until Sonica Mania.

Sonic does seem to move too slow tho outside of boosts. what the fuck. I hope there are speed upgrades

Took forever for him to run around that giant's foot

Looks like he intentionally moves much slower when doing that circle shit. The other gameplay video he's very fast.

Has Sonic ever had a good modern game? No? Then why were people hoping for this to be good too?

All Modern Sonic games are and will be terrible. That's the facts.

Sonic forces was pretty good. The avatar was shit and the story was cringe but the game played fine.

Sometimes it looked okay. Other times it looked like something a fan made in Dreams.

Of course I've never been a Sonic fan, so I guess I don't have any stake in this. The only reason I was remotely interested in seeing the game in action was because it's a very obvious BOTW clone, and I was wondering whether or not they'd make the most of that.

Q4 2022 roughly about 6 months.

The game has all ready been delayed a year to help "polish" it up. Originally a 2021 release window...

If it had enemies/npcs and things other than the tracks/rails it would be far better.

There's blue and red circles and the red ones boost sonic in the opposite direction. It's not so much that he needs "help" getting up the arms but it's actually a pseudo bullet-hell that he has to run through or else he'll never make it to the top.

I like the green and brown because at least it has color saturation.
The footage on this new game looks like someone came through with acid wash and faded everything or places a gray filter over everything.

So uh...the footage being shown is all kinds of messed up, because apparently it's cobbled together from a bunch of different, older builds. Sonic having two voice actors, his model keeps changing, and this isn't even played by someone from IGN, the lead of IGN said they weren't allowed to record any footage of the game they were playing.

Maybe they're trying to get feedback IDK.

Would be cool though if they actually let you pick classic / modern / boom models to play as cosmetically.

Thats kinda a issue tbh.

Sonic already has the Boost ability and quick step. They could have made the boss bigger and have you run up the leg with boosting/side stepping the red panels. The Blue panels (along with boosts pads in general) means they have no confidence that Sonic can make move fast/ precise without a crutch

Sonic has been shown running up much bigger verticals in the other video. The boss specifically seems designed for you to be able to get to the top easily even after you get stonewalled by accidentally running into a red ring.
