    An overlooked detail that helps Sonic 3's story is the transition between acts and zones, in the previous games you just teleport one to another, but here every act and stage has a transition that explains how they connect to each other
    I know it's a minor detail but it improves the immersion, not even Mania has transition in every level and it took me out of the experience everytime it happened

    This was great video to highlight the strong parts of each mainline title. My hope for ther series is the Sonic Team looks back at the strongest qualities of previous games and incorporate those qualities into Frontiers and future titles. Things like the open but linear level design that allowed for tons of replay value in games like 3&K, SA1, Generations and Mania, the focused ambition of Unleashed, a gimmick that flows well with the fundamentals of the series like Colors, the playable characters playing like Sonic but have different attributes like the 2D titles, the content of SA2 (emblems, level challenges, chao garden), etc. The list goes on, there's so much potential.

    In my opinion, the best part of Sonic Forces is the visual design. It’s a nice and clean mix of Lost World’s cartoonish art style, and Unleashed relative realism. Looking at levels from Forces you can tell it’s a Sonic game specifically, and not just some other platformer. Although the customization is good, I think it hasn’t been brought to its full potential and could be greatly improved on in the future if they don’t scrap it altogether

      Another thing Forces does masterfully is the atmosphere and sense of immersion you get in the game's setting. Every little detail from the menus, to the sound design, to the levels themselves makes you feel like you're apart of this larger than life conflict and in the middle of a battlefield. Which immersed me into the story and its moments more and it made it all feel so much fun.

    10:58 I've been using this same argument for so long, but nobody ever responds to it (because it's the ultimate argument, lol): Replay the levels repeatedly to learn new strategies for beating the levels faster, since Sonic is about speed and you should be replaying to beat your previous time. That there is the replay value for Sonic games.
    People gripe about Boost being too fast to react to anything, but learning the levels through replays can make Boost look really neat and spectacular when you get good at a level.

    11:17 What you just said here, this can also apply to Crash Bandicoot players ironically enough. When it comes to Sonic and Crash, I can think of no other games that encourage you to learn the levels and master them through mistakes and experiences in order to get better. It’s kinda weird to say because, fundamentally, they’re very different franchises, but they are very similar in that single regard. You’re not gonna get it the first try, and the devs KNEW this. They WANTED you to get better on your own terms.

    • @mikeexits
      @mikeexits 2 года назад +2

      I love comparing Mario & Sonic to Crash & Spyro. In both cases, the generational jump correlates with the same directional shift on the color wheel (Blue to Purple, Red to orange), for one. Plus Spyro got incredibly inconsistent and a bit more gimmicky later on past the first few main games similarly to Sonic.

    @azurda7483 2 года назад +9

    I disagree with a few things here:
    - While I love Unleashed a lot. I don't think Unleashed is the most polished game at all. One of those things is due to the framerate alone, but also some controls could be better. It was absolutely the most polished Sonic when it came out, but If we're going for most polished, I'd have to give it to Colors or Generations. Those games cleaned up the boost formula with stuff like the homing attack being a separate button. I think you could've given Unleashed graphics instead, game looked amazing for 2008.
    - Best soundtrack should've absolutely gone to Unleashed IMO. 06 has a great soundtrack but I've almost never seen people call it the outright "best" of the series, since that's a pretty big title. Maybe I'm biased, but Unleashed has such a diverse soundtrack that fit the many cultures that the stages are based on, with excellent jazz themes for the night stages. It's probably the most high caliber Sonic OST, IMO.
    - I'd give Heroes the title of "best playable side characters". Controlling everyone in Heroes is really fun which is a huge difference from Adventure. Stage diversity is pretty good in that game, but I think many other Sonic games do that just as well.
    -I think saying the absolute best feature of Generations is "approachability" is doing it a disservice IMO. You could give the game so much more than that; for example, its best feature could easily be how well it brings back and recreates past elements from Sonic games. There's a lot there, idk, I think just saying approachability feels kinda lame for a game like Gens, even though I agree that it is the best. It's not really a "feature"
    -Same kind of goes for Mania. "Consistency" isn't a feature
    I don't mean to come off rude, this is just meant to be a critcism, I think it was a well made video, this is just my thoughts. I think you were a bit too worried about being "biased", it's all your opinion, so don't worry about it

    5:20 Yeah, that was the last hurrah of Sonic games before Sega had to go third-party. Technically the real ending takes place after the Dark Story. Their plot to conquer the world turned out to initiate a program that would put that ARK on a collision course with Earth, and they had to work together to stop this imminent destruction.

    Back when the first movie came out, I saw PLENTY of people online who watched the movie grow interested in the series, and asking about what games fans recommend they play to start. For the most part fans said 1-3, sa1+2, colors, generations, forces, and mania. The problem with that is you’re bombarding newcomers with WAY too many titles, all of them completely different than the next. So when you said generations is the most approachable game and the best for newcomers to enter, I’m 100% on board.
    So for any fans watching this, if anyone ever asks you what game they should try first, definitely tell them generations. It’s basically an entry gate to plenty of Sonic’s past both in games that came out, and what made each game popular. From there, newcomers will decide what they’re interested in next.

      I say play 1-3 and the adventure games. If you like those then give Unleashed, Colors, and Generations a shot.

    Putting it into the historical context, I would've said about Sonic 1 that it was the first game of its kind, that it was revolutionary, a hit in gaming history and that's what made it stand out in the first place and one of the most acclaimed Sonic games of all time on the other hand, the game that everybody knows and have played at least once because, before 1991, we had never seen a platform game that combined speed and platforming in the style of Mario. The historical context is the unique aspect of Sonic's first game and I think that makes it one of the most (if not the most) important Sonic game in the last 31 years

    Even if someone doesn't like the Games, there's still plenty of things to like about the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, the Movies, the Cartoons, the Comic Books, etc., there are plenty of reasons to like Sonic beyond the Games, and that's just one of the many reasons why Sonic is such a beloved character.

    Shadow the Hedgehog had the best gimmicks with the weapons. That was the only sonic game where the gimmick didn’t completely alter or take anything away from the base gameplay style. The wisps and warehog aren’t optional. But 90% of the time you didn’t even need to pick up a gun outside of a few platforming obstacles or enemies. You play as regular shadow through the whole game and no weapon forces you to play a certain way or only use it for one ability that the character should probably already have
