    I always found this animation very funny. Like it was pretty cool when I first saw it, but after playing more Sonic games it's just so funny how Sonic immediately turns into an oval.
    I feel like the more standard drifting animation where Sonic anchors himself using his hand makes more sense for a drifting motion, specially since Sonic needs to act quickly and curling into a ball might not be very viable, but I feel like the ball drift would make sense if it worked more similarly to an actual kart game drift, like leaning more into the spin dash association and have the ball drift be Sonic actually charging up a spindash as he slides across the ground and then shoots off in whatever direction he is pointing at the end at the cost of some boost or whatever.
    Either way, seeing Sonic actually curl into a ball is exciting either way, he doesn't tend to do that much in the modern games.

    Also, people talking about the little things they love in Sonic is so good and what the fandom needs more of IMHO

    while i do think that both animations are cool, i love the ball drift because it ties into sonics moveset of being able to curl into a ball which boost games only really showcase with his jump. the stretchy ball is so silly and goofy but super satisfying i love it

      If you haven’t yet, you should. It’s probably the best feeling 3D sonic game of all time with high amounts of polish that other games in the franchise lack showing that when Sonic games have enough time in the kitchen they can be just as great as some of the other best platformers, and action games out there. On top of that, Sonic Generations is one of the most replayable gaming experiences I’ve ever touched getting me hundreds of hours just by replaying levels dozens of times and learning every nook and cranny of the stages, not to mention the mod experience on PC, which can really up the experience even more with custom or ported levels, models and physics to make a game I’ve played dozens of times before feel fresh. I couldn’t recommend the game enough. And of you do end up getting the game on steam id recommend getting these mods: Hedgemodmanager: which allows modding in the first place.
      DirectX11: which allows for the game to utilize the directX11 renderer to make the game load faster, and run better. Pretty much eliminating frame drops, even on lower end systems.
      Classic Sonic Improvment mod: which makes small tweaks to levels, Sonic’s model, and animations.
      Higher Poly Sonic Model: pretty self explanatory… just makes Sonic’s model look better than it did originally without completely changing his look.
      HD Pre-rendered cutscenes mod:
      This mod makes the dated pre rendered cutscenes look much better in-game than they did on original hardware.
      And these mods are all to improve the base game without changing anything too dramatically!!! (You can find all of these mods on game banana btw) If that doesn’t sell you on buying the game idk what will. The original game with the vast catalog of mods may be delisted from steam any day now due to the release of Sonic X Shadow Generations. So because of that I’d recommend getting the game sooner rather than later as who knows when this gem may seize 😂. In short, get the game. It’s a masterpiece.

    I 100% agree with you I think the drift as it appears in Generations is one of my favorite Sonic abilities, it's so cool and the way it squashes and turns as you lean into it is just wonderful.

    So I'm not the only one who thinks the same thing about drifting in Generations specifically! Idk what it is about the drift that i like it so much in this specific Sonic game, but i simply just do. Doing it just feels so good! Like you said, it's a small thing and kind of weird to be cared so much about, but it's just amazing personally. Good video!

    I used to prefer the Unleashed/Colors drift but I really came around on the stretchball drift. It's a way to keep the spindash alive in the modern movekit and it just feels more powerful.

    Thank you!! The Generations Drift is so unique to sonic as well, it’s such a cool touch that you’d only see in a sonic game. Also nice choice of outfit.
    Also from what we’ve seen so far of Shadow Generations gameplay, it’s built upon the Frontiers moveset so he may not have a drift •(

  • @CoralCopperHead

    A sidenote on drifting in Sonic: Sonic Riders handles it beautifully. It's downright critical in almost every turn, and the snap-second decision between a feathered drift for a safe turn or a full drift for a boost is always on my mind every time there's the slightest bend in the track. S&SAS Racing is great, don't get me wrong, but I'm still waiting on a fourth Riders to course-correct the spinoff after 0G muddied the waters and Free Riders tanked the entire thing.

  • @kerozine819
    @kerozine819 27 дней назад +1

    I don't care what anyone says, overall sonic animations in generations is better than in unleashed. Unleashed animation is not bad but it's a bit stiff. I really like sonic doing the adventure pose when he finishes doing tricks in generations.

    gens' drift might be my favorite for sonic in general (honestly though so is everything else about his moveset, i need more sonic games where he controls exactly like he does in gens that is PEAK modern sonic) but ironically enough i vastly prefer his animation in other games for the drift. i like the spinball fine and i really like how it heavily nods to the spindash but something about the way he anchors himself with his hands has always just been way cooler ti me lol

    okay but what if after you held drift for a second or so little sparks started flying off the back and when you released it you got a small boost depending on how long you charged it for?

    Nice video, I do prefer the Unleashed drift, but the ball is still really cool. I also noticed the mod you're using, and I wanted to ask: what do you think about the Transfem Sonic mod, by Lunanova? I kinda prefer it since it does not only give Sonic a look that I feel fits the character more, but does a lot of small changes to fit it much better with the game. If you don't know about it, I suggest you check it out!
