    14:19 Exactly my thought! "Justice" is one of my favorite OSTs from Forces, and it would've given more variety to the game as well. To be fair, Sunset Heights' Act 2 sounds way better than the first Act, that's why I always let "Justice" play during the first Act instead. 😅

    Hey bud great video overall and just wanted to give you a few tips on how to make your next video even better. First your bits aren't that well coordinated for example the intro feels a bit too long and in this day and age people have low attention spans which means some can click off while at other times the bit felt too short and it could have used some more time to cook, SFX balancing also needs to be worked on since sometimes the effect is too loud, the title transitions need a bit of work or you can just remove the title by itself since you don't really need to distinguish the sections with the big text. Wanted to finish by saying you're doing great and if you keep improving I'm sure you can gain an even bigger audience!

    11:00 a bit of correction here, the turning in the White Space/ Boss fights are quite different from the one used in the levels the levels' control has turning a bit closer to Forces or any boost games prior, but you can defintely turn left or right better.

      @@EtherealManic07 And you're entitled to your opinion. I was not trying to change your mind. I'm just still a little upset over how much people overreacted to Forces' quality. People turned on that game before the first bit of gameply was even shown to the public. Is Forces Good? No. Is it the worst Sonic game ever? Also no. I just don't get how people can look at this and say it's worse than ANYTHING that came out between Shadow 05 and Unleashed. People wanted to hate this game before it even came out. Why? I wish I knew. But it wasn't fair to the game. I'll say it until the end of time. Forces isn't bad. It's just mediocre. Sorry for the paragraph long reply. I've just always felt this game was treated unfairly ever since 2017. If people actually gave it a chance, they'd see it isn't the worst thing in the world.

It was just complete ass when compared to any other game at the time. Especially when we got Mania like months prior. 06 had fantastic level design, so it wasn’t a boring to play. I physically cannot play Forces stages without nearly falling asleep. 06 had horrible controls but I can see, and appreciate the vision that went into the game. That cannot be said about Forces.

    this is like the 5th vid i've seen in my recommended that has some ragebaity thumbnail about an older sonic game being "objectively" bad compared to shadow generations or how the series was in shambles before and now it's "back on track". why can't we just appreciate a new game being universally praised without dissing old ones all the time (forces isn't even bad btw). it's like when people constantly bring up 06 like that game wasn't almost two decades ago (it's cooler to hate on forces tho. totally no bias involved there). it gets annoying to constantly see and hear the same complaints about games that came out years ago when we have a new game that's taking the series in a whole new direction to talk about. there's no real discussion to be had anymore.

      Isn't that the point of the video my guy? The fact that Sega has taken what is widely considered as bad and has made it better. If the video was "How Shadow Generations is better than Sonic Forces" you may have more of a point, but it's literally comparing something that exists within both games - and that was the entire point of Sega doing what they did to the level... to give you an objectively better experience. Also, if you got ragebaited by this thumbnail... you may want to work on your self control. Okay? Okay. 👍

    I think act 2 is really good but man, act 1 repeats some of the biggest issues from Forces and for some reason people just ignore it lol. The new waterspout gimmick is cool but its literally only used at the start and then tossed aside. They don't bother building upon it at all and that's really the only gimmick they added for that act. The level is full of those boring, uninspired, and empty hallway like sections too. Its not all bad with the death egg robot section being pretty damn cool but man its the worse level in the game by far. Alternate routes aren't that interesting either. Super forgettable and disappointing.
