@@DAGzex was just about to comment that lol, but we're also getting new updates like challenge mode, photo mode, jukebox, more playable characters and a new story
Every super sonic boss gives sonic 100 rings at the start, no matter how many rings you had in the previous stage,probably because starting with 5 or so would make the battle last 2 seconds
Most people don't even do this, but if you click the x and a buttons like it says, it will switch to a cutscene of sonic literally picking up the titan and throwing it against the mountains. Dope as hell Edit: I'm wrong, that's for the second boss. But still, people miss a lot while playing these bosses.
Yeah there's some crazy cool hidden cutscenes/moves when fighting all the titans that you only really see if you take it slow, doing too much damage can straight up skip them. I've seen so many people miss the yeeting Wyvern across the map one it's sad.
Cannotically Amy was introduced in Sonic CD. Her character bio said she used Tarot cards. It was lost to history for a while then reintroduce in the IDW Sonic the Hedgehog series. One of the story writers for the game Ian Flynn is one of the writers for the IDW series. You'll see there are a few additional things he has carried over making some of the newer lore from the comics cannon in the game.
She also apparently can use her ESP to turn invisible in 06 lol And I have a theory that shes using ESP to enhance her strength and her hammer (given she gives off hearts when using it, and gives off hearts when using her floating move in sonic heroes) That may be why she leans so heavily on love, love likely gives her power
@@hwanniggles187 I don’t really see how it shows that, although it is often true. At the same time, sonic has been deserving it recently. Hopefully frontiers is a sign of things to come.
Nothing couldve emptionally prepared me for the boss themes to be metalcore tracks with Kellin quinn. I went in blind and got fucking jump scared by that shit lol. The first one was super catchy already and then I hit the wyvern fight and they said fuck it, we are going in on the scream vocals. Not to mention the credits being a One OK Rock song. This whole OST is culture as fuck. I find it really funny that the original uncensored lyrics of vandalize say "fuck the pain away, my bed is in ruins". Like damn, okay sonic?
Sonic has had canonical cussing in its songs since -Shadow the Hedgehog- I think S3&K actually, although I dont think they can get away with an F bomb in game and still be E so that’s why it’s censored lol But they’ve slipped smaller cuss words in the music Before and no one notices lol
I'm extremely surprised Charlie did not know that was Kellin of SWS when he has listened to metalcore and posthardcore. SWS was insanely fucking huge at one point in early RiseRecords days.
@Bobby Joe The Unicornbro its janky af its not worth 70 dollar lol. I know its great that you guys got finally a decent sonic game but, do not glorify it and oversell it. lol
These are like ultimate spectacle fights. Since you're totally invincible it's all about what you do to advance the fight. And if you're like me you stop wailing on the bosses because you're super overpowered and wanna hear the music
Damn bro, if only there was a feature explicitly used to *_lock_* the camera in place *_on_* a specific target, or something. Oh well, guess we'll have to pray for an update or some DLC or something.
I didn’t mind the camera being away from the titan cause I noticed there’s a little white squiggle in the direction of the enemy if they’re about to attack so I pay attention for that and parry if need be
Nope. My monkey brain decided to only melee down giganto on my first attempt. It was on my second attempt I used the Sonic boom attacks, but had the standard 100 rings. After that I cylooped to max out my rings. Regardless, the fight, while a little jank, cool as cool can be.
I watched a certain let's player die to it while completely ignoring the games tutorials and then complaining that he didn't know what to do. He was throwing salt the entire time he was playing so that kinda felt good, not gonna lie, though I was sad to see many of his fans copy his opinion 1-to-1 without putting in any critical thinking themselves.
The fortune card reading line is a reference to a scene from the comics. The new writer for this game has been writing the comics for years and years which is why there's so many references to both the comics and past games
A song being that heavy in a Sonic game is about as much of a shock as the game itself, which says a lot. Edit: yes, I played other Sonic games; I said heavy, not hard. Sonic songs going hard is common knowledge, shh.

@@timklafke4712 Even some of the best Sonic games have jank, it's kinda part of the brand at this point, but at least it's not Sonic 06/Boom levels of jank and doesn't fail where Sonic Forces does. Frontiers may genuinely be the best of the series to date.

Coming from a big fan of action games who doesn't usually play sonic, the best way to make any great boss fight, is to make it what you've been doing in the rest of the game but better. Frontiers combat doesn't have a ton of depth but it's free-form, and full of spectacle, so just add flying and giant bosses.
Amy doing fortune card readings is a cool idea but I feel like it was also barely touched upon until the sonic origins cutscene, which means Charlie probably isn’t the only one confused by sonic’s sudden mention of it.
@@QwerpOS I think he means the Sonic series overall, like character data, the IDW comics, etc. It's been brought up in those mediums that Amy does tarot card readings. This was first brought up in her character info in Sonic CD, where she makes her first appearance. I think this is the first time in a mainline Sonic game that has outright mentioned she does this. If you're not a hard-core Sonic fan, you wouldn't know this.
This game is a huge step in the right direction! I’m a huge adventure fan but honestly I’d prefer them to keep moving forward in this new direction and keep perfecting what works here even over an SA3
Actual yes Amy is a spiritual person. She new she would first meet Sonic through Tarot cards. So much of Sonic’s history and the characters have been ruined in the past ten years because of the shitty writers. It’s all been forgotten by the general public.

Yup. Hope people also check out Kellin's other work (and of the band, SWS) and his solo project Downer Inc. and the album. Some people might enjoy Crosses a lot, for example.
Ngl, never in my life would I have imagined that the spiritual successor to MGR is Sonic of all things. Needless to say, it doesn't matter how awful or good the game is, somehow they always manage to make banger OSTs

YESS you get it!! like its not perfect but hell if it doesnt make me happy as a long-time sonic fan. man, seeing the accolades trailer they dropped today with all the fantastic reviews actually made me cry lol because we're finally going in the right direction after so long... i missed this so much
"you cried over a review trailer?" the euphoria of having an excellent game after so many mid or shitty ones and putting sonic back in a positive light got to me, okay
Yeah never saw someone lose the first boss like that. I think it comes with the misunderstanding of how parties work. Sonic can just hold the parry button as long as he wants to parry and attack. Of course this is emphasized during Wyverin fight but that’s it. The game doesn’t do the best in explaining parry since it says “time it” when you don’t have to at all.
I actually discovered this fact in a random loading screen tip Been tryna time my parries up to that point. Hey, still some good timed parry practice regardless lol
@@TheEmperorRaidou don't worry, i LOVE sonic, also charlie's pretty based anyways, people can have their own opinions just saying if he didn't really care about sonic games before and THIS ONE grabs his attention, then it's pretty noteworthy also gonna note my fav game is unleashed, i was just trynna be funny

it wouldeve been so badass if sonic had a proper animation for being launched away, before bursting back into combat, instead of awkwardly freezing far away and then drifting towards again
@@lambousginiguccigod2007 won doesn't automatically mean he's stronger tho. Sonic was clearly fatigued by the fight with Knight and even Tails was worried for a sec
@@silverfan9611 I think getting lifted into the sky and getting folded means whoever did that shit is stronger LOL. He even took on his full on slash and (1)caught it then (2) kicked it away. Super sonic>over all titains
Did you read the instructions during the loading screen? You don't need to time the parry just before an incoming attack - just keep holding the buttons until the attack is parried. So many people ask what they're doing wrong, and the answer is that they're not reading the instructions right in front of their faces.
Hey Sega, that Zig Zag move that Sonic does, stop facing the camera towards the sky and towards the enemy. Holy hell. Also, was I the only person to try out as many moves as possible on all of the bosses? My absolute favorite is the circle of spheres attack and the one speed attack where you can throw the enemies up into the air including the bosses. And this game has a killer soundtrack. I'm hoping that the future Sonic Frontiers content will let you replay the boss fights.
Aside from being a bit disappointed in Supreme and being REALLY let down by The End (an arcade ship shooter but ONLY if you beat the game on hard, seriously SEGA?), the bosses in this game are awesome. Each revolve around elements of Frontiers' combat to make fighting them all unique (Giganto is all about comboing, Wyvern is a test of speed, and Knight is all about parrying). Great way to bring Super Sonic back into relevance after so many years.
Just completed the game last night. I LOVED it! My favorite sonic game ever, i mean 60 FPS sonic is 🔥 All the boss battles are amazing. Love some of the tougher enemies on the last map. Can't wait to see sonic frontiers 2!

The no sight spam at the beginning killed me so many times at first lol
it wouldeve been so badass if sonic had a proper animation for being launched away, before bursting back into combat, instead of awkwardly freezing far away and then drifting towards again
Well not really spoiling but what you just said is actually involved with the third Titan boss.
@@Electrical010 yeah. The point is with this fight is Sonic is clearly superior to Giganto. The Knight boss is superior to Sonic tho
@@silverfan9611 but sonic won?
@@lambousginiguccigod2007 won doesn't automatically mean he's stronger tho. Sonic was clearly fatigued by the fight with Knight and even Tails was worried for a sec
@@silverfan9611 I think getting lifted into the sky and getting folded means whoever did that shit is stronger LOL. He even took on his full on slash and (1)caught it then (2) kicked it away. Super sonic>over all titains
The game is a win all around for gamers.
Did you read the instructions during the loading screen? You don't need to time the parry just before an incoming attack - just keep holding the buttons until the attack is parried. So many people ask what they're doing wrong, and the answer is that they're not reading the instructions right in front of their faces.
I didn’t realize I could’ve used the cyloop to get more rings, well I guess I’ve learned something for the other bosses of it’s like this
If you do a figure 8 you get infinite boost for a time too.
I swear, 90% of this game's budget was spent on Kellin Quinn
Charlie: I have no rings
Cyloop: Am I a joke to you?
Hey Sega, that Zig Zag move that Sonic does, stop facing the camera towards the sky and towards the enemy. Holy hell. Also, was I the only person to try out as many moves as possible on all of the bosses? My absolute favorite is the circle of spheres attack and the one speed attack where you can throw the enemies up into the air including the bosses. And this game has a killer soundtrack. I'm hoping that the future Sonic Frontiers content will let you replay the boss fights.
You can now in the new DLC! The fifth towers Boss rush!! (I'd recommend doing it in easy mode though or it's not that fun)
Aside from being a bit disappointed in Supreme and being REALLY let down by The End (an arcade ship shooter but ONLY if you beat the game on hard, seriously SEGA?), the bosses in this game are awesome. Each revolve around elements of Frontiers' combat to make fighting them all unique (Giganto is all about comboing, Wyvern is a test of speed, and Knight is all about parrying). Great way to bring Super Sonic back into relevance after so many years.
Its so fun for literally no reason other than to just be fun
Kellin Quinn was already so cool but this gives him so much power in being cool
Sleeping with sirens went hard sadly not on Spotify😭
Charlie looking away from the screen during the coolest parts like my big brother when I try to show him dope shit.
Sonic + DBZ + NGE... wild
the soundtrack for this game is GOAT'ed
I love these boss songs so much i listen to these 3 times each song every week
Damn dude, the soundtrack for Sonic Adventure 1+ 2 gave us Butt Rock, now 20 years later we have Butt Metal lmao
Just completed the game last night. I LOVED it! My favorite sonic game ever, i mean 60 FPS sonic is 🔥
All the boss battles are amazing. Love some of the tougher enemies on the last map. Can't wait to see sonic frontiers 2!
4:39 Nobody gonna talk about how the this mgr lookin boss just turned into shin godzilla?
Ok
I feel like I had a much easier time with this boss fight than he did. He should’ve used the parry move more.
Wouldn't bring in rings to a super sonic fight
Kept dropping the parry
Did more basic attacks than combo attacks
2/5 gameplay
Holy crap! That’s the first time i’ve seen him smile! Has he smiled before, anyone who’s seen more of Charlie’s content then i have?
lots lol watch him show off his markiplier art
Charlie has to be the most nonchalant gamer ive ever seen
"Is Amy canonically a psychic or something?" I don't know but I know 1 thing with Sonic. Everythinhg is conon. SO probably yeah.
i knew the singer sounded like kellin quinn, crazy
It is him
i was stuck on that boss for some time so i called it "diabeto" out of spite
The camera is so fucking broken in this game especially when it comes to lock-on , more broken than original DS1 lol
The new outro animations are fire
He took surprisingly long to defeat Giganto lol
clicking the stick locks the camera onto the boss
This song is a fucking banger
You need to hold the parry until the titan hits you for it to work.
absolutely bizarre to me that you can fight a titan and just give no reaction whatsoever
Seeing charlie not use the cyloop at all hurts
How come no one ever does the QTE actions
Yes amy is a psychic
Bruh, what's with Amy's goofy ahh run?
