    I don’t think a game has ever pissed me off more than this. When Forces was revealed back in 2016 I was so hyped and remembered thinking “this was gonna be peak.

    IF I WROTE Sonic forces, it wouldn't even classify as Sonic as the MC.
    (Synopsis)
    • While Sonic the hedgehog battles eggman after The mad Scientist successfully takes over the world, Shadow fights a battle of his own created by himself. He faces off against leader of the Jackal squad, Infinite who seeks to use the Phantom Ruby's power to wreak Havoc around the world by creating shadow clones and Holograms to do his bidding to sully Shadow's good name.
    (Must note)
    • Phantom Ruby's power gives user access to victims Memory
    • Infinite goes back to Shadow's past
    • Infinite uses Shadow's past to trap him
    Trivia:
    • Story relates to Sonic 06(Shadow's story)where mephiles claims humanity will turn on shadow despite his efforts and will see him as a threat. Infinite is to Revive that speculation and turn his close ones against him by having the Phantom ruby produce clones framing Shadow.

    This game suffered what 06 but I'd say even worse, because, despite not being broken as 06 it clearly had to be done and rebuild so many times that in time, it forgot what it tried to be so much it ended up being pretty dull, a shade of what the gameplay used to be with a Story so shallow it hurts just to see the potential it already had by it's own

    4 years of making the game might not even be representative of the actual work put into the game.

    I have a love hate relationship with SEGA for this very reason. Had it not been for them, Sonic would not be a thing today, but it’s also because of them that Sonic could have very well also not still be here today. Especially after Frontiers and hearing about the development hell that game went through as well, I feel awful for Sonic Team and really wish SEGA would have given them the proper resources, manpower, and time to truly fulfill their vision every time.
    But hey! Let’s at least be thankful that Frontiers WAS successful and that Sonic Team finally seems to be getting the message through to SEGA that they need more time and resources to be successful (I hope).

      It’s really a shame. Cause we can see that when we do get a budget. The games quality is high. Now you can say what you want about unleashed but that game has such a fine level of detail that we haven’t seen in years. So hopefully the next game is similar on on the same level.

  • @justsomesimplenuclearbirbs4313

    The concept art is just the *tip* of the iceberg for what we missed out on.
    At one point, an early draft of the script for Sonic Forces leaked revealing so much scrapped content. One key difference between the final product and this early script is motherfucking *Mephiles The Dark* was going to be one of the illusions heard about after Eggman merges the Phantom Ruby (under a completely different name in the early script) with that weird "Death Egg Robot."
    So on top of the general tone being much more dark and the plot was going make much more sense compared to the final version, we were going to get a cameo of one of the most infamous characters in the mainline Sonic franchise.
    The Cutting Room Floor has a pre-release section dedicated to the early Japanese script and a link to another link to a pastebin with said early script translated by Windii.

      In Sonic Rivals 2 one of the obtainable cards is if Mephiles in his crystalized form. In Sonic Generations Mephiles makes a cameo via a screenshot of Sonic '06.
      The first time he made a proper physical return was in the defunct Sonic Runners as a playable Speed type character. He later reappeared in Sonic Forces: Speed Battle as both an enemy and an unlockable character in his own event.

    Small bit of info for ya!
    It's not exactly sega that makes the games.
    Sonic Team are the brains behind the projects. The concept, art, and work is from them and them alone.
    Sega is the one who determines the budget and time that goes into a game.
    Sonic Team may be willing but Sega has a weak sense of adventure. Sega doesn't care if the game is undercooked or not. All they see are numbers. So really, all they care for is the money Sonic makes.
    Luckily in recent times Sonic Team fought for at least one more year of development for sonic frontiers and Sega allowed it. And now that sonic is receiving such a good reputation and is the most sold sonic game in history; Sega wants to put more time and effort into. The team and the sonic games.
    So it's nice to see that the team really does care for the franchise.
    It just sucks that Sega hasn't learned a thing since 06. (Until now I think...)

Clearly they knew what they were doing, but they never got the chance to do things how they wanted to do, with the right budget, time and peoples. Can't wait for Update 3 and their next big project cause we really might be in the renaissance of SonicTeam. Btw, can't wait for Sonic Forces Overclocked, this look so hype and much closer to what Sonic team envisioned when making Forces

    A new alternate timeline was created after the events of Generations, we know that because Modern Sonic does not remember any of the events of Generations from when he experienced them as Classic/Younger self. So during and after Generations, that classic Sonic is now on a new timeline due to him experiencing Generations.

Imagine after it was tails fault that sonic lost fight with infinite he goes through some redemption arc, also could’ve been perfect excuse for the gears the oc character uses and make it that tails was the one to invent the gadgets through his adventure. Maybe when breaking robots he gets scrapped pieces, with those he can craft different gadgets for him to equip. Maybe even being able to play as tails in tornado in one level! It’s such a missed opportunity to make tails become his old brave self, saving sonic on end of game, would’ve been perfect! Tails could’ve been known as a hero!

    "and here we have another man ranting on how dog shit forces is" jokes aside they could've done so much with the concept art yet just folded for no reason, like this would've probably been a great game if people just let them actually have a darker tone and more time

      Fr. This games development is a mystery. I’ll never understand what happens for things to change so drastically

    Can you do what the murderer of sonic the hedgehog should have been?

    Forces was rushed no doubt about ut
    That 4 years was a complete waste of tine.
    My theory on why forces is so bad is because it was a very unstable project constantly stopping/starting develipment and was given proper resources.
    Forces is basically a lost world and generations asset flip with good graphics
    Everything else is garbo.

      That and they also spent the first two years developing the hedgehog engine leaving only 2 years to actually make the game
