Sonic X Shadow Generations is AWESOME: An In-depth Discussion (Feat. IanWaffles)
Sonic X Shadow Generations Is AWESOME: An In-depth Discussion (Feat. IanWaffles)
Not too long ago, Sonic X Shadow Generations came out. After talking so much about it before release, I felt it was only appropriate to do something special now that the game is out. And here it is: a nearly two-hour-long video discussion covering pretty much every aspect of the game, from pre-release to its ending.
To craft such a behemoth of a video, I would need all the help I could get. So this time, instead of doing my typical solo video, I enlisted the help of my friend IanWaffles to make what's effectively a whole podcast episode discussing the game. I hope you enjoy it! :D

Pokémon Is Made by Actual People The recent Pokémon data leak-referred to by fans as the Teraleak-revealed a lot of interesting information about the franchise's background.

Hunter × Hunter: A Story That Doesn’t Care (Discussion/Analysis)
As an adult that's been following Pokémon for a long time, I personally love the lore leaks! I understand why it can't be cannon lore in the franchise, but it really makes the world feel more alive and like our own world. Many fairy tales, nursery rhymes, and popular children stories are freaky when you go back and read the original source. I know it's not true, but there will forever be a part of me that wishes a person from gamefreak allowed this to leak
Thank you so much for having me! Crazy I got to be on one of my new favorite channels to watch. Keep up the good work dude.
Yo! Thanks so much for being a part of this! U rule! :D
Currently playing the second one after ignoring it for years, and I can’t put it down. Arguably the most addicting game play loop in the entire series
I had know idea the leaks had a name,I called it ocean leaks XD
"pokemon is made by actual people" woah you don't say, I totally would've thought it was ai generated the entire time (this is a joke, I feel like it's obvious people were actually making these) jokes aside, it feels nice to actually see people show these leaks in a good light, I've been seeing so many people going twitter mode on these things and it's just a whole ass warzone at this point
This was great. I was ready to click off due to risk of spoilers, because I haven't seen much from the leaks other than some memes and murmur. But you really nailed the direction of the conversation into a thoughtful and meaningful one without having to rely on clickbait or spoilers. It's a well-earned sub from me; keep up the good work!
Thanks a lot!! I'm glad the vid managed to keep your attention genuinely like that. It's nice to know I'm going in the right direction.
How the hell does this video only have 46 likes?
This is such a good video, I definitely agree! I hope it reaches more Pokemon fans!
Thank you! Here's hoping!
But gamefreak still need to go. They have been sitting on pokemon franchises for too long and given us half ass product.
I REALLY appreciate you mentioning that we shouldn’t be celebrating seeing an artist’s work before they’re ready to present it to people. I know it can be exciting, as someone that’s… you know, a fan of things-but I’m also an artist (I make animations and do digital art in general), and it can be not only irritating, but demoralizing when someone sees something before you consider it “presentable”. Sure, most people might say that it doesn’t matter if the thing being shown is good anyways, but it’s just… not great, to have something revealed when you don’t think it’s at its best yet. It can lead to people making hasty judgments about something when the artist isn’t even happy with it yet, either, so they’re… you know, still working on fixing and changing it. Maybe it’s not the same with a big company, but I can certainly sympathize with the concept.
Okay, actually finished the video now, and this was ASTOUNDING. Again, as an artist I sort of already knew about a lot of this perspective (everything that was revealed from the leaks is just… the basic artist / story-creating process. Character Moodboards and sheets like the ones for the gym leaders, for example, are very common in my experience). But it’s really eye-opening to see that some people don’t register this…? I have aspirations to go into the animation industry and pitch a 2d animated show in the future. This video was almost relieving, in a way, and I’ll definitely be directing people to this video since it’s a really nice watch. Amazing work, and thank you for making this :D
Thanks so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed the vid! Means a lot!! I think in a general sense, we all sorta know about the production process of media, but it's easy to just not think when it comes to big media franchises like this. As an aspiring screenwriter, and in general, just someone who likes to delve into the development of media I like, even I sorta forgot about this when it came to Pokémon. It's not that I didn't know that was the case at any point, but moreso that because this franchise is published by this huge company that primarily works in literally the other side of the world, it gets easy to sorta subconsciously dehumanize the creatives behind it.
Definitely makes sense!! I assumed it was soooomething like that, but I do still think this video is very eye-opening and like… valuable. Because, hell, I ALSO haven’t thought about it in regards to pokemon in quite some time!
I like that despite you want to talk about this topic knowing how this can affect to the employees, you approached it in a very respectful and empathic way. My new confort wholesome UA-camr fr
Omg dude thanks so much! I'm glad you liked the video! That last part of your comment genuinely made my day :)
Great video man! You tackled the subject from a great angle. Giving time to think of the human aspect of art can be very humbling even if subconsciously already know it. A reminder is always welcome. Keep up the great work! These discussions keep getting better and better, you’re really nailing your points and flow.
Welcome aboard! :D
Oye amigo, solo tengo una pregunta, entonces el juego sigue siendo muy lineal? he visto en muchos videos donde juegan la demo y parece que el input de sus controles es: línea recta, botón de salto, botón de salto, boost, línea recta.
As I said in the video; I felt like there was a good amount of optional paths. It's about as open as the original Generations
Is that a beyblade x string launcher?
Yes... Yes, it is. 😌
@@ashster_sunshine so you like beyblade x, sonic and dragonball? Same
the store page on steam for sonic x shadow gens says it has dualsense support baked in, so hopefully that means all those rumble features will work on the pc version
I guess they put the boost & spin dash on R2 because of the adaptive triggers.
It doesn't seem like the boost's efficacy changes in any way depending on how deep you press the trigger. Plus the switch doesn't have 'em. I'm guessing this really is just a way to keep the game in line with Frontiers' controls
Idk why they didn’t release a demo to the public but oh well
que pronuncia maravilhosa quero chegar nesse nível kkk
A gente tenta xD
The boost doesn't _feel_ as fast as base Generations. They need to ramp up the Field of View.
It's a few things. Field of view, motion blur, and the actual speed of boosting. From what I can tell, the boost is not as fast as Generations, so that's probably the biggest reason for the *feel* not being the same. And with the camera zooming out more often, it's probably gonna feel even slower. Not a deal breaker at all, but kinda noticeable.
@@Technonova323 Remember that Generations had equippable skills that increase your speed. If you're used to playing with them equipped, that may be why the demo gameplay is slower than you're used to.
@@Technonova323 It's also 2 different play styles if you think about it. Sonic Gens is a lot more reaction based while Shadow Gens seems to be more platform focused
Is the air turbo like the forces one?
No, not really. It's like the Frontiers one if it dealt damage
>easy S ranks After replaying Adventure 2, I'd rather have Generations style S ranks.
Since they're generally optional, I'd rather have them be difficult for those who want the challenge. I get that the issue is that u wanna go for 100%, but ultimately It's your choice to go for S-ranks on the more difficult games. People who like challenging S-ranks can't have them in the new game, whereas people who don't like them can simply ignore the ranking system entirely, if they want to. Imho it does more harm than good.
@@ashster_sunshine Oh yeah, I just love getting through a difficult level by the skin of my teeth and then having the game insult me for not being great at it by slapping an E on me. Makes me feel awesome. Everyone loves it, that's why Bayonetta 1 sold gangbusters, right? People just couldn't get enough of them Stone awards. You want challenges, self-impose them. Coming up with extra stipulations is easy as pie.
You know what? Fair enough.
im just really hoping, that shadow generations doesn't have the same controls like frontiers. it makes the game a very frustrating game.
As I said in the video. It's somewhere in-between Generations and Frontiers. Definitely quite similar to Frontiers, but it did feel more polished, so I wouldn't write it off if I were you.
Finally, an actually detailed review of the demo
boost meter do get refilled with rings in Frontiers actually but iirc not from defeating enemies like you can in Gens
Boost in frontiers literally fills on its own 💀
Defeating enemies fills the Chaos meter for Chaos Control
@@Kolox yes, and rings also refill it, your point?
I’m very excited for Sonic X Shadow Generations I preordered the Digital Deluxe edition I can’t wait to play!
cara, eu acabei de achar teu canal e adorei o jeito que tu expressou sua opinião, eu já vi muita gente falando sobre como foi jogar a demo, mas eu sempre achei essas descrições meio vagas e "otimistas" demais, tipo sei lá, eles sempre falam algo como "NOSSA é muito bom galera" e só isso já você realmente abriu uma discussão sobre o que você jogou, falando as coisas boas e coisas ruins, parece que você realmente não tem medo de expressar algo negativo sobre esse jogo e eu respeito muito isso, achei bem legal :) aliás o inglês do pai tá torando heinn
Eu só usei legenda mesmo e fui tentando concertar os poucos erros que reconheci, mas exatamente, eu sei que o jogo será excelente mas é bom saber pontuar os erros também, assim como frontiers foi um teste, provavelmente o shadow generations será um teste 2.0, saber pontuar o que é bom e ruim ajuda muito na qualidade de um produto. Principalmente no caso de Sonic, onde a franquia está se recuperando aos poucos.
Ele é br?
@@FredericoSantosVieira se você se refere ao UA-camr, eu não tenho a menor ideia, mas como assisto muito conteúdo de Sonic me recomendar o vídeo.
Eu sô sim :P
Oh que top @@ashster_sunshine Eu meio que assisto tanto vídeo gringo de Sonic que quando algum UA-camr aparece falando inglês eu nem penso que pode ser br.
0:40 Understandable 🫡
Just pre-ordered the deluxe game. I'm so excited!
Rate your experience on shadow gens 1-10
Like a 9 or 9.5, more or less
@@ashster_sunshine Your giving us hope, hopefully its not false 😳😖
🤞🤞
I subbed to you because…. Você é brasileiro (you’re Brazilian)
proud of you man, the videos are getting better and better!
So do u think the game is fun and replayable ?honestly
Definitely! There are things I would change here and there, maybe. But it looks to be about as good as the original Generations. Give or take.
I hope they get rid of frontiers mechanics soon, I hate the controls
You mean physics?
@@EternityVoid_ no it’s not just the physics, the way it control. They mask Sonic’s homing attack lag with shadows teleport flash effect. And there’s times when u can tell it’s just frontiers gameplay controls but with a fresh coat of paint on top to hide what it really is. It’s a matter of opinion though, I’m sure some love how it plays, it’s just not for me.
@reddemon6668 It looks faster to me from all the footage I have seen.I was actually hoping they took away the homing attack delay from Frontiers, but we gotta wait & see.
From my experience. Tho homing attack is faster than Frontiers but still laggier than I'd prefer. Though it might be the teleport effect tricking me, as you said😅 The game very much felt designed around it, tho. I didn't find many moments where it made *more* sense to avoid homing attacks, like in Frontiers. Usually, the distance gained compensates it
With Frontiers, the control scheme with X being the Homing Attack and RT being the Boost worked okay, for these reasons: 1. The Homing Attack could be using on the ground as well as in the air. 2. The X button was also the punch/kick button, which allows you to use the Homing Attack as a first blow and add some extra punches with the same button. 3. There was no need for a drift button. Unfortunately, Sonic X Shadow Generations doesn't seem to work the same way, since you can't use the Homing Attack from the ground and it has drifting. I wonder how that's gonna work.
Probably LT for drifting
I've used this control method with generations since frontiers came out and it works fine
@@barozukos7791 yeah, it is, think of it like the Spin Dash for this game
Yeah. LT/L2 for drifting. Forgot to say it in the video.
I’d have it as RT as boost SQAURE/X as a homing attack and drift
What a great review. thank you for covering everything relevant and answering questions for us. as opposed to most others videos contributing bullshit takes .
Great video! Looking forward to more!
Teu inglês ta em dia ein, parabéns
Muita internet faz isso com a gente kakakaka
Parece que a opção de manter o boost com o pulo do Frontiers não tá aqui julgando pelo seu gameplay.. triste mas ainda parece muito bom Bom vídeo
Não fiz o teste à risca, mas a impressão que eu tive foi mesmo que o Shadow é pesado na mesma maneira que o Sonic era no Frontiers antes de adicionarem essa opção. Imagino que não queriam que as fases fossem tão fáceis de quebrar, então nerfaram essa habilidade bastante ou simplesmente não adicionaram. Valeuz! 👍
You did not play Astro if you think joycon rumble is better lol
1. Yeah, I didn't play Astro Bot yet. Saving money for it XD I did play Astro's Playroom, tho 2. I literally said the rumble on PS5 is *better* than anything on Switch. Maybe my wording coulda been a bit better
@@ashster_sunshine gotcha my bad for misunderstanding. Also thank you for sharing your impressions!
Welp found my new favorite person
Just found your video, I imagine your Brazilian as well right? Just commenting in English to be sure lol, your English is amazing man. Loved the video and super hyped for this game
Isso mesmo mano. Sô BR!
@@ashster_sunshine isso ae mano! Adorei tua energia kkkjk, mt sucesso pra tu (+1 inscrito 🤠👍)
i miss double x for homing
You can still do it in the Sonic portion of this game, at least ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Knowing Sega, they might go back to it at some point or another. But having replayed Unleashed recently, and coming back to Frontiers periodically since it came out, I kinda honestly prefer homing attack on square now. At the very least I'm more used to it at the moment lol
@ashster_sunshine i also like it more but honestly i think its my bias for unleashed talking
I don't. Sometimes I just wanted to double jump, man.
Esse é o Brasil
Brasil-il-il-il!! Issoae. Representando.
I kind of don't want to do the Spindash with "R2" because it looks kind of uncomfortable.
From my experience, it isn't as bad as it seems. You get used to it pretty quickly. Otherwise, legacy controls are there for u. It'll just be annoying to switch back and fourth between the control options if you like the default controls for modern Sonic
@@ashster_sunshine My point exactly, that's why I want the controls to be separate😭
I'm pretty sure someone mentioned there is the option to change the inputs to be like 2010 Generations
sonic x shadow generations is coming out october 22 (digital deluxe) or october 25 (for the standard version) i got the digital deluxe edition so i get 3 days early and im so hyped to play
Same here 😁
Unless you got it on switch, Nintendo doesn’t know how to do the 3 day early thing
For me its says on the 20th
The pre-download option isn't showing up for me. My gf bought me the deluxe version on June. There's only 5 days until the release and steam is not letting me download the game. Is anyone with the same problem?
same
if you were impressed with season 1, you will have your head blown with the season 2 finale, not to mention season 3 and onward
Keep in mind One Piece is a long running story and that gives it time to develop characters over a long period of time. You'll learn as you go through the story that these characters' Traumas and overcoming those (or coming to terms with them) and their changes don't happen overnight like most other series. They are written to be real characters with their own struggles and fears, including Luffy. Every character on this crew has a moment of growth and development (even if people will say Luffy doesn't grow/develop) it's just harder to see. Luffy isn't like most main characters, where is is suppose to be our (the reader/viewer's) stand-end, it's actually Usopp, which is why Oda will keep him the weakest (Physically) on the crew. So being a character who is outclassed by the world around him and the people he's surrounded with, you can see that we ourselves would be quite nervous. It's a great story that balances both heavy subjects and lightheartedness well. It'll make you laugh and it will make you cry within the same arcs and sometimes even chapters.
Now that it's just finished, I can confidently say X is worth going through It absolutely has a rough start, but once they settle into a groove, it cooks a mighty delicious meal
I'm considering picking it back up af a later point
I feel like the only issue I have with this season is the early battle choreography, that’s it really. This season is fantastic otherwise!
