The updates still don’t fix the fundamental flaws of the game. You’re still trapped in a loop of collecting random objects to talk to friends and collect emeralds to advance the story. Besides, even with all the updates, Tears of the Kingdom still blows Sonic Frontiers out of the water.
@@jimmy3608Tears of the kingdom wasn’t even out yet, and also tears of the kingdom would beat any game besides like Elden ring or whatever so that’s not really a fair comparison
This game is actually quite fun and the titan battles are epic. The gameplay and plot in really good. They finally gave Amy a character. The only mid thing is that it's repeative and that's about it. Overall it's a really good game and I 100% recommend it.
@@MJGaming57_REAL true but since sonic series Amy's were more iconic. It covered up the adventure Amy's character and made her nothing more than a fan girl.
Tbh with you, I like that amy isn't a sonic stalker 24/7 anymore, but I miss a little that "rat and cat" thing, she is just too depressing to talk in this game.
I played sonic and Zelda as a child, I really hate where the sonic franchise is going, sonic was always its own thing not just a Zelda copy. While playing sonic frontiers, I didn’t have that sonic-y feeling I just felt like I was playing breath of the wild with different characters
@@Lonkil nah bro, that's on you, the game is certainly inspired by botw but the gameplay (moveset and all of that) is completely different. I agree with you on some parts, for me this game is Botw maps and looks + collectibles from Mario Odyssey + Sonic in Sonic Colors. For me, the story/islands weren't very "sonic-y" but the gameplay is the good ol' Sonic we know.
This is not dark for sonic, I’ll tell you dark: A girl with space aids gets shot by a gun and was hidden by the government and the experience gives shadow ptsd, aka Sonic Adventure 2
i know this is an old review but fun fact the actually put in the option to level up multible levels of speed or ringcapacity at once in a recent update they also now have a NEW collectable in the game, music notes those notes let you unlock songs from all over the sonic franchise and listen to them during the open world gameplay they also had a cool colab with monster hunter where you could get a rathalos armor for sonic
Normally I don't play sonic games because they're too fast for my eyes to follow but this one was a good game Edit:also my man if you go into settings you can turn off the power up scene and not only that you can increase the speed in which sonic actually goes
"i DiDnT-" This is why I half left this stupid fanbase, I love frontiers too but, people can have opinions you know? I hate how this fanbase just slanders people for having a different opinion.
@RandoDesign how is this considered "slandering"? Like where is the hate? I'm pointing out that he said the game is trash, and yet the game's has a 7/10, which is objective, a good game. People can have opinions, yes, but that doesn't stop me from debunking it. Quit being a snowflake. Free speech exist. It's the internet get used to it.
@Sonic the hedgehog There's no such thing as an "objective" opinion, opinions are inherintly subjective. Sonic frontiers is a 7/10 TO YOU. Not to everyone, people are allowed to have their own opinions and scores on games, if they think it's a 4/10, it's their opinion, and you should respect it. You said it yourself, freedom of speech.
“Wow this boss fight is terrible, it just keeps launching me to the edge and bad camera.” *proceeds to mindlessly do that same thing over and over again without trying anything new*
Kellin Quinn put his heart into those songs. Undefeatable, Break Though It All, and Find Your Flame are the only songs that can rival Endless Possibilities and Crush 40.
I know i'll sound like a simp but. Maybe make a video on the DLC because that makes the game WAY better. The last one will be released by December. Btw they are free
Me and my friend predicted that the next sonic game would be open World, and it was 😂, our story that we made in the prediction is so different though…
I'm sure you were told this a lot in the comments on the original post but id like to reiterate that the devs don't appreciate their game and hard work being compared to breath of the wild. to be fair there are a lot of similarities but it was never meant to be a rip off. as for the final boss sega forced sonic team to rush the later half of the game so they didn't have time to complete their original plan which from my knowledge was gonna be much more bad ass and climactic. great overview though. I will agree its a bit cheesy but in a likeable way. I highly recomend the game not for plot but for the fact that its a fun little digestible story thats fun to play casually
I think crunch is very important to take account in to a games state and how it’s affected the release of a game but I think it’s arguably much more important to take a game on its own merits and see what it does good or bad it has even with the limited time/ resources the team could have had and also A lot of people especial people outside the sonic fan base won’t know the struggles the team may have had that people inside the fan base may know And I can’t say this for 100% sure but I’m pretty sure it was even just a little bit inspired by breath of the wild theirs many aspects of the game that are reminiscent of BOTW
@@jateyboi1108 that’s fair I’m sure there were inspirations from gameplay mechanics or story beats present in BOTW but BOTW was definitely also inspired by other games similar to it as well since that’s what is needed to innovate in the gaming development landscape. So it’s not fair to say that Sonic took this and that from BOTW since much of what BOTW implemented was technically also taken from other games I’m saying it shouldn’t be compared in that way really I’m not trying to deny the similarities that exist
@@biteingcobra363Oh alright was a bit confused thought u were saying sonic frontiers copied nothing from BOTW I get what ur saying now just a bit of a mix up lol
I like the game, just one big take away with me is the boring environments and music. Sure the open worlds are fun but i wish with the theming we had something more than just "Grass" "Sand" "Rock", ect And they just have no personality at all. The music is fine i just wish they had something more exciting playing then a tune i could 100% fall alseep listening to. And just like the worlds they arent very uniqe and don't have much personality. I still like the game and always have a fun time playing it, i just wish those two factors were done better.
If you think its bad here… Zelda’s even worse. Personally I kinda wished Rhea and Ouranous Islands had different theming than just feeling like leftovers from the first island
Sonic's "outline that breaks the shadows on the water" is an artifact of screen space reflection. The reflections made by SSR can only see the pixels on the screen, and Sonic is covering a part of the screen, so the water reflections can't see what it should be reflecting, so it reflects nothing. A less primitive implementation would at the very least add a vignette to the effect strength has to not draw attention to the SSR breaking behind objects and the edge of the screen.
Regardless of how you implement SSR, however, it'll always have issues like that. However, it is the least computationally expensive reflection method by far (if you don't count reflection cubemaps). Chances are, SSR is the best thing they can do in their render pipeline.

Bad movie idea (In the wise words of Johnny razer.) A CEO of a small company knows someone in the office is trying to kill him, and he cares less and less the richer and more successful he becomes. The main movie is just him getting more and more paranoid, locking himself in his office, as his company booms overnight, and the main movie is a murder mystery, but in the background, it’s a commentary on corporations growing, to the point where they don’t care about the environment, and only care about themselves, and how much money they can make. The CEO gets killed by everyone some random guy in the office, and the ending is the random guy coming in and lecturing him while letting him bleed to death from a gun wound.

Hello
"Sonic is fated to die"
Well, if you look at the April Fools 2023 game...
Sonic 06.
@@GUNUFofficialthat was 16 years ago
That game tried its best to not say among us
@@tacobelldumpster1538sonic did die in that gmae
U do have to admit tho that the april fools game was a near masterpiece. I mean the steam reviews speak for themselves.
The fact update 1 came out weeks before this and fixes SO MANY of his problems is funny
Edit: ik this was made before the update and posted after
@tobis6519 ik ofc I read it, I'm just saying how ironic it is that he posted it BEFORE.
@Tobi S shhhhh, there might be children
And now we have update 2 lol. He should replay this game

This is not dark for sonic, I’ll tell you dark: A girl with space aids gets shot by a gun and was hidden by the government and the experience gives shadow ptsd, aka Sonic Adventure 2
No, Dark is, when there are different fully destroyed Worlds and BOTH PARTS of the *GOD OF THE SUN* want to kill you and fuse together
(Sonic 06)
SA2 wasn’t that dark exept for shadow, sonic was all upbeat when frontiers is barely upbeat except for cyberspace
This game is still a lil dark tho
i know this is an old review but fun fact
the actually put in the option to level up multible levels of speed or ringcapacity at once in a recent update
they also now have a NEW collectable in the game, music notes
those notes let you unlock songs from all over the sonic franchise and listen to them during the open world gameplay

Edit:also my man if you go into settings you can turn off the power up scene and not only that you can increase the speed in which sonic actually goes
Fast sonic games are the best ones
Skill issue
This was before the update where that power up scene option was added
Same for being able to do all speed upgrades at once instead of one at a time
Too fast for the naked eye
That really is true

i gotta say the update helps w a lot of problems and adds more content for free
I didn't know a 7/10 is considered "terrible"

I think that was just the ratio of him throwing up while playing

6:30 has to be one of the weirdest things i’ve ever heard from a sonic game
I find it funny how such a new video is so outdated because loads of these issues where fixed in the New update lol good vid tho
I hope the sonic team watches this video and makes better fishing mini games in the future
Haahahahahah!!! Sega?
You mean sonic team...RIGHT?
@@vladik_SPSR_228_proyeah.... Sega started loving everyone even sega haters
Ngl, Saying the Big fishing mini games are bad would be like saying DBZ Kakarot fishing is bad you don't really need to try this hard to catch really
The fishing mini game here is miles better than the first time they tried it, so I'll say it's good enough.
