      Tbh I'm not a fan of the characterizations in this game since I've seen fans that do skits do a more satisfying job of showing who they can be, but I'm not going to gripe over it since it is better than anything in the 2010's. Who knew it took a good writer to nail down comedy/toning the moment appropriately with what the scene needed? Looking at you Pontac and Graff.

      @@novelty_thief The thing is, critics set out to critique the various *aspects* of the game. And there's a lot of individual parts of Sonic Frontiers that suck in a vacuum. But if you actually just sit back and experience it, the game is simply incredibly enjoyable to play. You can list 50 flaws with the game and make a convincing argument that it sucks on paper, but that's the case for EVERY sonic game, except perhaps S3&K. What makes the difference is how the pieces fit together, what's the moment-to-moment gameplay, does the game have soul, and does my face hurt from smiling after playing it for an evening. And Frontiers ticks all those boxes. Aside from SMT Strange Journey it's the most fun I've had with a game all year. And I'm a Xenoblade fan.

Frontiers makes you feel like sonic and super soniic. I hope all super fights are like the titan fights from now on even if they drop combat after frontiers. I want super sonic fights with a combat system from now on. Frontiers is the best sonic game in the franchise imo.

      I feel they should release some patches for this game - it can be perfect if they do some of the following:
      - fixed the pop-in... I have a feeling this is not gonna be as hard as people say... because the issue is less about pop-in and more about assets loading in an incorrect order... for instance, in most cases, you will observe an object that is further away already fully loaded in, and a nearby object not loaded in yet... and it loads in when you move closer - not getting into programming details, but it feels as if the render pipeline is just filling in the objects that have to rendered in an incorrect order... it seems like an issue that can be fixed in a few weeks at most.
      - Fixed the odd bad collision bugs people have faced - again, should not be hard at all...
      - Remove unbearable camera-hijacking in certain sections where the player loses camera control.
      - Lower the score required for pinball boss.
      - And like you say - Added Super-Sonic in Open World when you beat the game on Hard.

Why not TEN years, anything less is anti-consumer, but the caveat being they need to churn out free DLC for two years. WHY NOT just lifetime subscription and you get what you get, pleb.
      What people seem to ASK FOR, regardless what you say you want, is to skim as much money as possible every 5 years from people who might not otherwise buy ALL the games, for being "low on content", and AFTER enough people bite the bullet you get to sit the devs down to make DLC for NO extra profit, just off-disc content they can delete when the next webshop goes offline.
      Because you already got them the money, out of the "just buy the game to support it, it's only every 5 years" people. Can't decide if you want to until AFTER you churn out $60. Assuming this game even gets half the sales as the most watched video crying about the bad hype in the IGN trailer.

    This wasn't a step in the right direction, it was a *MOON JUMP*. It's clear there's passion in this game and it's also clear that they wanted to innovate.

The combos are amazing, I just wanted to use them more).
    With that said, I could see a Sonic Adventure remake using this games engine and physics. Make the homing attacks a little more snappy and you got the basis for an adventure style game. I could also see them making a sequel or something like that to further the open zone gameplay, in matter of fact I really would like open zone to be the formula for a while.

    If 4 to 5 years is going to be the new normal for a mainline Sonic game,then they need to fill in the time for fans by working on 1 or 2 spinoff games. Not asking for the dozens of spinoff games they used to do in the Dark Age,but Sonic as franchise has a lot of potential that's being left on the table game wise. Like why not the bring back the Riders series? It's core gameplay was different enough from Sonic ASR that it wouldn't overlap.Another try at a fighting game,maybe in a 2d animated style, a DMC like action game,or Action RPG? And just outsource of all these to different studios suited for the job so it doesn't strain the main Sonic Team.

    man something i keep thinking about in all of this is that kishimoto had to fight tooth and nail for a year delay and when i imagine the game this would have been a year ago i feel so miserably sad. it needed that year so badly and without it, i fully believe we would have had another crash and burn, ESPECIALLY when we're lucky enough that the switch port runs pretty stable. that would not have been true a year ago. ian flynn is getting his rightful recognition for what his writing did for this game, but i dont think enough people realize the impact kishimoto had by being willing to double down on needing that time in the oven and i'm genuinely really grateful. i really hope that if nothing else, this shows sega that that time was NECESSARY and that they need to trust the creatives making these products more to know what is needed to make them good. for all the hate kishimoto gets, it cannot be understated the impact i think that decision had on the end product.

    This is what sonic needed to be doing different things and not always doing the same thing over and over again Ian and the crew did a fantastic job with this game. They also made Tails cool again. Not relying on sonic much but also learns to do things by himself and showing that he's growing up and is no longer a little kid but into a man. Amy and knuckles also got the justice they needed since generations and maina.
    Amy's not a simp when she sees sonic and knuckles is not becoming much of a meme anymore. Frontiers is showing Pontiac and Graff that they really tried to mess up the franchise and told them it's time for sega and sonic team to get into more different ways to make the sonic content more and more popular and ways it hasn't happened before.
    Sonic team and sega and Ian thanks for making sonic great again and hopefully we'll see more of this in the future here's to another speedy year.

    I've been loving the game so damn much, it's so nice after Forces to see that modern-style Sonic games still work in this day and age. For the next game if they're using the same engine all I would ask for is improved pop-in and performance (though the game itself runs beautifully) and for more varied and colourful open zones, maybe something more city-like. Obviously I know that they were going for the digital world look in this game so it works really well but I'd love to see it. Also I feel they need to move on more from the nostalgia on the cyberspace stages, getting tired of the same levels in every 3D game since Generations, just changed ever-so-slightly. Finally, I feel that Sonic needs to stick with an idea for a change. They seem to think that if there are the slightest issues with their ideas, then they chuck it all out and start new. Refinement would go a long way instead, so I really hope that they don't take the criticism of the poor pop-in issues and go "ok, we clearly can't do that, yoink" and chuck their toys out the pram.

The story was ok to me wasn't anything special but it was nice to see more lore, the interaction with the characters was really nice glad they weren't just joking around half of the time like colors.
    There was nothing more fun than jumping off the rails as sonic going real high and speeding through the open zone it was never a dull moment for me, and the big bosses around the open zone was a fun and challenging touch.

    I was very skeptical about the game up till release, the pop in could use more polish, the automation at times can be a lot but you can balance some of those segments out with timing to land on to other exploration segments or rails that can take you to new parts of the world in a stylish way. What sold me when I actually began to play was the controls to how Sonic's movement feels, from playing Unleashed, Colors, Gens, Lost World and Forces, for once in a good whle Sonic feels good to handle and whatever adjustments I made got the feel I wanted, for that reason it felt great to play even if it still has it's issues in other areas. The story may be a bit all over the place (literally) but it kept me invested, and the characters actually act like themselves and not flanderized versions, you can really see Sonic has history with the others and cares about them in a distinct unique way for each.
    In the end atleast for me the game was just an experience that it could even change your mind about it if given a chance.
