  • The hype train never ends. Sonic has had a game every year for the past 3. With Sonic frontiers in 2022, Sonic Superstars in 2023 and now the big new sonic title of the year is... a remaster of Sonic Generations. It brings up the question of why Sega would decide that this game should get a remaster above others like sonic unleashed, but the second part of this package may shed some light onto why. That being... Shadow the Hedgehog???

    As much as people meme on Shadow’s game people don’t realize how out of context everything about it usually is. 99% of that game is non canon what if scenarios. The actual canon part is not just edgy for the sake of edge, and it’s actually a good representation of the character. Even directly sets up his arc in 06.

    • @Realdeal958
      @Realdeal958 6 месяцев назад +154

      Exactly. There's a moment between Shadow and the Comander where he says that if everything he's saying is true, that he'll accept his fate after everything is over. And later during the hard mode missions, the commander apologizes and invites Shadow over for dinner and that he's a grandfather. The game has bad parts in it, but I think the good Shadow parts don't get talked about enough

    • @tadaokou4919
      @tadaokou4919 6 месяцев назад +61

      Plus the whole game is full of translation errors and left out a lot of cultural context.
      Example for cultural context: It's not uncommon for child characters in japanese media to curse. Sonic saying the word shit would not and actually *IS* not controvercial over there.
      Example for misstranslation: ...basically the entire game. The native japanese version is entirely different in comparison to the american version. Probably the worst translation any Sonic game received ever.
      Just gonna edit this in here for the people who made a response to my comment clearly without understanding what I was saying:
      When I said that the translation team didn't take cultural context into account I obviously meant that they shouldn't translate swearing 1 to 1 from japanese to english. Different cultures=different standards.
      To me, this was obvious. Why? Well, what else could I have meant by saying "they left out cultural context"? The only "place" they could leave cultural context out of is...the translation. Obviously.
      It saddens me that this is actually something I have to explain. It should be so obvious but some people seem to struggle with the most simple things.
      Other than that:
      The best example for mistranslation is the "Where is that da~n 4th Chaos Emerald?"-scene. In japanese. Shadow of not swearing in that scene. It was a mistranslation.
      Another edit:
      Just a general response to the comments here because so many people seem to not understand what Shadow the Hedgehogs story is about and why it actually treats Shadow as a character pretty great...
      The big thing about the Shadow in Shadow the Hedgehog is that he is NOT the Adventure 2 Shadow. He is a completely different character due to his amnesia. The Shadow from Adventure 2 is dead and he actually didn't get revived because Shadow himself never regains his memories...in the true ending he puts his whole past behind him, including Maria. Why does he do that? Because he doesn't have any attachments to Maria or his past. It's a story about living life to the fullest and not letting yourself get bound down by your past. It's a really interesting take on the whole amnesia topic because...his amnesia never gets cured. But he decides for himself that it doesn't even matter. He will live life to the fullest in his own way. Doesn't matter if he lost his memories or not.
      If you want a more detailed explanation about this watch Pariah695's video about Shadow the Hedgehogs story. He explains in detail why most people just do not get the story of that game. And he also explains in detail how poorly it was translated into English.

      @tadaokou4919 6 месяцев назад +12

      Amazing...your comment is basically calling me stupid but it basically is just you showcasing how you can't put 1 and 1 together to form a senseable conclusion.
      I said that the game was very poorly translated. It's basically a completely different story in japan. I also said they left a lot of culture context OUT of the translation. The cultural context is that curse words are pretty normal for child media in japan. What does that actually mean for the translation? Well, obviously you shouldn't translate curse words 1 to 1. That's the cultural context they were not thinking about.
      If something goes in Japan it doesn't mean it goes in the west. That's part of the poor translation I was talking about. So...how about you actually start thinking about the words I wrote, "dawg"? Emberassing.
      Though I do have to say that the west (mainly america) acts pretty childish about the whole use of curse words.

And if the clones, unlike the original, don't have any memories from before, they are much easier to manipulate or straight-up program.

    From a marketing standpoint, it's genius. Shadow is just as if not more popular than Sonic himself among the existing fandom, it gets to tie into the movie release even if only in regards to when it's coming out, and newer fans introduced to the series via the movie series can play Generations for the first time, getting them interested in other games in the series. I just really hope Sonic's campaign is given a more fleshed out story with new cutscenes. The original game feels very rushed in that one regard, as if they cut the story budget mid development to focus on polishing the stages themselves. It would also be nice if they could make the Time Eater fight less garbage.

    I just hope the "Episode Shadow" of this game is substantial enough instead of feeling like a half hour long dlc that they should've made for the original (seriously, I never even played Generations and I still think it's only dlc being a pinball table is such a ruthless blue balls) and lets the man use his Chaos powers freely, something he's not had in his playable repertoire since 06 which has mechanically left him as just Sonic but "He _roller skates!"_ as Prime Sonic would put it.
    Edit, also Super Shadow, same thing as his Chaos powers, yeah they stuffed him into a set of mobile games, but in terms of things that actually matter Shadow's Super form has also been missing since 06, even IDW has yet to use it as far as I know even though its Metal Virus arc gave us the 2nd ever appearance of Super Silver.

      To remake either of those games would require a longer development time akin to making a whole new game today - because simply taking the source code wouldn't work, they would NEED to rebuild it from the ground up if they want to do any improvements at all.
      So, basically 2+ years if we're thinking of a basic retread of sonic adventure 2. Any sort of legitimate technical, graphical improvements would easily push it to a 4-5 year development time to be done right.
      Also, obviously worth reminding that those 2 years of development time for sonic adventure led to a lot of issues in that game. Even if 2 years was enough to recreate it, it would not be optimal for a remake to risk having the same issues.

    This sounds like a nickel for the “Sega Questionable Decisions” jar at first, but I actually think (in addition to the reasons stated) they’re doing this for similar reasons to why HAL remade Return to Dream Land: follow-through.
    Like Forgotten Land, Sonic Frontiers made a lot of new Sonic fans, and so they’re trying to follow-through while they have those new fans’ attention. Yeah, Sega already gave us Superstars and Dream Team, but why not maintain the momentum for just a little bit more with a port of the defining game in the previous style?
    I’m more disappointed because I JUST beat Generations for the first time a few months back, and I don’t want to rebuy it for only the Shadow content when the game doesn’t look substantially better than its source game like RtDLDX did.

    The reason is because it’s a well received game that can’t be played on modern consoles. Plus with Sonic 3 movie being around the corner, the public interest in Shadow will be much higher so this game will sell more.

    I'm looking forward to trying this game because I was never able to play the original version, and because the Shadow part looks interesting for sure. Since it has been said that Nintendo's next console will be as powerful as the Plastation 4 and might get released early next year, I'll just wait and see if Sonic X Shadow Generations get's released on that console or not before I will try to perchase that game. I think that one of the main reasons why they currently aren't even thinking of doing a remake/remaster of Sonic 06, is because years ago they had already given Chaos X permission to make a fanmade Windows PC remake/remaster of that game which could become as much of an improved version as he'd want to make it be. That fanmade remake is currently almost complete and has been getting reviews that are very much positive ones.

    @Skylancer727 6 месяцев назад +5

    Let's be honest, Gens was the obvious first game to remaster. It takes by far the least effort to remaster it as the game still looks current gen today, it was just low res and could use native controller support for PC instead of using a settings launcher. Unleashed will take way more work to get functioning as the 360 and PS3 were different hardware from the PS4-5 or Xbox One-X. Being there's a PC version already made it even easier as the Xbox Series uses Direct X for rendering just like PC.
    I'm not expecting the Shadow story to be the greatest. I can already see the physics looks pulled out of Frontiers and so far the actual stage layouts look pretty empty just with background fluff. It's the same thing the series has done for a while.

  • @thekillercritic3616
    @thekillercritic3616 6 месяцев назад +5

    Generations is one of the most beloved Sonic games at least gameplay wise, so porting it to modern consoles will keep it accessible for future generations(Pun intended). Also, they’ve added Shadow as a playable character so they’ll be some extra fun to be had with getting to play as Sonic’s ultimate rival(Aside from Knuckles). Would like to see an additional rival fight or two for Sonic himself though. A boss fight against Classic or Modern Knuckles or Blaze would be super fun additions. And for Shadow himself, he should ABSOLUTELY get a proper Sonic boss fight for himself.

I'm seriously convinced that all Sega would need to do in order to remaster Sonic '06 would be to basically absorb the fan project, which is about two-thirds done from what I understand, and finish it up. Just make ChaosX be in charge of whatever dev team sega assigns to the project and we would have a guarantied success.

    I think a big reason why Sonic Generations is back is because it's already on PC in an engine they've designed to make it easy to port the game between systems. It won't take a lot of leg work bringing it to PS5 and Series X while Unleashed is the kind of game that back then utilized the hardware it was on in a specific way to get it to run at full speed and it would take a bit of effort to bring it to modern hardware if they were to do a direct port of the game.

    There's a reason why Sonic Colors and now Sonic Generations are getting remastered: They're actually solid games.
    I've said this for years: Sonic Team doesn't friggin' get Sonic. They insist on reinventing the wheel every time they make a new entry into the franchise, and it hasn't worked. Every single game they have made post-Adventure 2 has been a miss, for the most part. Yes, they've had some fun moments in each of them (Well, except for Sonic '06, which is just insane that they even considered releasing it in the state it was), but with the exception of Sonic Mania, most of the post-SA2 games have been really, really rough. Hell, Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 haven't aged particularly well, either. I love those games, but they're hard to play through nowadays without a heavy nostalgia filter.
    It's time for Sonic Team to do something else and let a competent group of developers make a Sonic game again. When nearly every game you make is a dud that harms the reputation of the franchise, it's time to hang it up and let someone else develop something. I don't know if it's Sega giving unrealistic expectations for deadlines or what, but whatever they're doing is not working.
