Kinda creepy man, everything feels like you're not supposed to be here. Same when you go to rhea island. In rhea every thing is so specifically designed for something, but its actually nothing. And seeing that pyramid thing in ouranos island from kronos gives me chills for whatever reason.
Ikr?! I cut it out of the final video but multiple times in the footage I say "it feels like I'm not supposed to be here". It's very weird.
Feels like it was just abandoned for a reason, but you couldn't tell what. But whatever it was, it's clear that it doesn't want you there
Time and having a pretty small team definitely contributes to the rushed final part. But with the hiring and getting a bigger budget for future games this hopefully won’t happen again. Sega shouldn’t have had to have been convinced to give Sonic Team another year
Other way around buddy
I don't see many talk about this but Ares Island was probably cut as well. You can see an outline all around that island from an aerial view, showing much bigger areas. Makes sense because Kronos Reunited is currently much bigger than the others and it seems they initially wanted to have all the islands around the same size. You can't see any water around Chaos Island yet maybe it was cut too.
Chaos Island is so weird. Yesterday I noticed how the entire island is enveloped in clouds, as if the island is just on the top of the mountains above the clouds. But it matched the descriptions about Sonic going for higher places and having the final open zone in space.
Something I noticed is that rhea has the EXACT same broken bridge in it as ouranos but without all the collectibles
Yo. With the new leaked trailer from 2021 you can see some mountain like structures in the complete murged island.
The temples in the sky were probably onto of said mountains.
Perhaps they were also detached from beta kronos main land since in the released game you can explore small patches of island floating out in the ocean.
Strange.
Yeah yeah it seems like they did much more than just split Kronos into two
The part that baffles me is that Sega didn't even make an attempt to hide that Rhea and Kronos are the same island. Their maps are still connected, you can see Rhea from Kronos and vice versa. Kinda shows how rushed the development cycle was, because at least Ouranos got to be it's own island.
Honestly crazy how much different this game could've been if they had had the time to finish this
sonic 06 be like
@@niffuM4205 Sonic 06 couldve been a amazing game. it still is but u know what i mean. it feels everywhere unfinished
no?? beta kronos was already finished with it's own challenges and stuff ready to go.
it was only split early on because playtesters thought it was to big, hence the change from open world to open zone.
the decision to split it wasn't just done last minute so they could skip making a fourth island or whatever
They should've just had you travel back to Kronos after you completed Ares, go to Chaos, and back again for the end game
Exaclty my thoughts
It was 100 % Giganto at the end of the reveal trailer. Knight has 4 legs with ball-like wheels for feet, Knight has two legs that are flat on the bottom. Also the shape and pattern of the torso matches Giganto's. Knight's torso is thinner with less patterns and a weird shaped pelvis to accommodate for the 4 legs.
This is actually shocking to see, wow
You need more subs
Sonic Frontiers makes me feel like a kid again in SO many ways and I love it. From watching its media cycle, getting hyped over every single trailer and screenshot and new piece of info, staying up to watch directs and shit just for it, to the eventual release and playing through it and the ridiculous freedom of it and the story and all the memories of the other games it brought back, to boot it even has a fucking insane beta and development cycle with a lot of shockingly massive and mysterious feeling changes from then to now and I was addicted to looking at pre-release content for games that changed this much as a kid. Seriously! It just keeps delivering!
I think Kronos was gonna be the last island cus who would make the biggest island the first island
It was actually similar in size to Ares and Chaos initially
I always figured that Chaos island would be the final island after hearing the name.
I see the game in how it was thought to the last amount but they did not go well programming or guidance for the player
It may be that ouranos was divided and that they found it easy to ascribe for chaos for some players and when dividing it from kronos because they wanted to focus for the famous towers of rhea what there would be in the own kronos instead of another island and to finish off the success of the towers in kronos because in ouranos finish the arc of sage what if it was fulfilled at the end
I simply mean that ouranos and kronos perfectly divided and already and that kronos had the most difficult platform of the game thanks to rhea but as I said I think they did not know how to achieve that and simply had to divide another area to save design and script problems
kronos is cool but man imagine if it was like this, I kinda wish the islands were all bigger
I REALLY want to play Sonic Frontiers how it was originally going to be like, since we know the ending in update 3 was the original ending they wanted. Or even yet, blend the frontiers we got with the original/beta, just spred out the platforming challenges across the island.
Man, it would've been so cool if this was the first island, and then we go up to the ancients worldship for the final area. Just imagine exploring a ruined spaceship full of enemys. I hope beta footage of that gets released, or it gets found hidden deep in the files or something, becaue that would be awesome to even just see!
So this is how Sonic frontiers was going to look like
If you look at the concept art Kronos island was supposed to be MUCH MORE, and Chaos Island would’ve been better. The concept art makes it feel mysterious and gives me the chills because it makes me feel like I’m not supposed to be there, Sonic Team needs more employees if they wanna achieve 100% of their goals
This video made alotta stuff about frontiers make sense!
Why is empty ouranos island so ominous? It feels like weirdly empty, like singleplayer minecraft
3 MONTHS LATE SQUAD WHERE YOU AT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Thats awesome
Awesome video 😊
Thank you 😁
I mean... we've always known the only reason they decided to split kronos was because the playtesters thought it was too big.
which's probably why they repurposed it all for the end instead of making yet another island
Yes but ouranos wasn't always supposed to be the last island. The original last island was scrapped due to time constraints
@@SFproductions1 not necessarily.
given the size of the two other islands I think it'd be safe to say they were made after the team decided to cut down on beta Kronos's size, So pretty early on in development I'd say.
And any hints we might have for a supposed 4th island is iffy at best. like how come we could find out every little bit about the scrapped things in this game except for that?
@@indecisiveponderer643 there is unused "W4" or "World 4" data in the files. There are also unused voice clips of sage referencing the "ancients Worldship" wgicg was theorized to be the original final island. In fact, Ares was actually supposed to be the same size as Kronos as similar to Kronos, you can see a water outline surrounding ares that shows that the island was scaled down in a sense. I actually made an iceberg video about all of this stuff if youre interested lol.

I believe that on Kronos and Rhea if you look where Oursnos is supposed to be in the water, you can see an outline. You gotta be pretty high up to see it but yes
