    I was thinking about the same about the cyberspace levels. My problem with this game is that it seems to have things that was heavily criticized by people in forces to level design from sonic's physics. I don't think we can judge completely about the level design yet of the cyberspace levels, because there could be plenty more of stages during the game and we have more islands to explore but it's completely justified the worries, and I'm worried too, but what it triggers me is that physics looks exactly the same in forces (if you saw the cyberspace gameplay), like come on. I think Unleashed is the best sonic by far in terms of controls, physics, moveset (if you speedrun the game you know what I mean), it hurts me a lot to see that after 5 years since forces they're still trying to force this gameplay style that didn't work in the last game because devs are incapable of doing something good and because of how much little time they got to work, but now it's different. Openzone looks amazing and the story does too and I'm really hyped for it, but as a boost player enjoyer this just makes me feel so sad and angry. It's just like you said, forces but fancy.

    I loved the trailer. The CGI cutscenes looked great, and by the way, the last Sonic game to have CGI cutscenes was Sonic Lost World and not Colors, just so you know. Honestly, I think these CGI cutscenes will be in the game, I'm sure of that, because the cutscenes themselves don't look like they were made just for the trailer, they look like real cutscenes from the game. With respect to the levels of cyberspace, well, I have no complaints. They look good, they are not very outstanding, but they still look good. Now, I don't know if these levels of cyberspace are going to have different alternative routes or it will just be a straight line with automation in between. We'll have to figure that out for ourselves when we play the game, so let's not jump to conclusions just yet.
    The story, for its part, seems to be the main attraction of Frontiers, because the trailer gives the feeling that this game will have a more serious and mysterious story. Also, I have a suspicion that Sage will not be the villain of the game, but rather, she tries to make Sonic leave the Starfall Islands by threatening him with robots and other things and that the real villain is hiding in the shadows. Hahaha, I'm sure the story will please Sonic fans from the 2000s and say things like, "My Sonic is back!" I can assure you.

    @bbumbs747 Рік тому +13

    So a lot of footage of cyberspace has released as people have posted themselves playing the demo and to confirm yes their very linear, now they aren't horrible in fact I would even say that their decent but compared too Unleashed and Gens it isn't as good.
    The two levels we have full footage of as of now are Green Hill and Sky Sanctuary. Starting off with Green Hill it's a very ehh level, it serves mainly as a tutorial level and as a tutorial level it does succeed but compared beyond that it's not very interesting in fact it's kinda boost to win in a way, not completely but it feels like that. Sky Sanctuary however is a lot better, it's pathways branch out way more and there are some obsticles you have to be cautious off.
    However what both of them have in common is that their short like can be beaten within a min which may seem bad but a lot of people have been saying too treat the cyberspace levels more like short and quick special stages rather than full blown since that's Gens and Unleashed levels and since that is most likely what the devs intended and when looking at it like that it succeeds in a way. So while it can never reach the heights of Unleashed and Gens, it does have potential to be good in its own way.
    Edit:So a lot more footage released and apparently a good portion of them are being reused from previous games, while I do think as a game I still might have fun with the cyberspace it also just feels extremely lazy and I'm not very fond of Sonic Team doing that, sure you could say that's not the main focus but the issue is it would be a lot nicer of them to not do that as it makes the game feel more authentic and not just copy pasted just to move past the deadline . Now so far it seems like 2 out of the 5 levels are completely original, that being sky Sanctuary and the new city level. Well Sky Sanctuary still borrows some elements from Windmill isle of Act 2 but ngl I'm pretty sure it's just me but there is something with Sky Sanctuary that just feels way more original compared to the last 3 instances of reused level design so I think it's mostly original. So luckily it isn't every level but what I'm hoping is that a good majority of levels are original and not just copy pasted bs.

    • @AMAZIAH

      They're most likely stages from island 1. Which may all be speed test, to familiarize you with how the stages leave you to find the fastest routes.
      Considering that Green Hill is a straight line with 1 turn.
      The highway(which is new mind you) shows off alot more speed based platforming. And that bridge looks like its own route.
      Sky-Sanctuary finally adds holes to your straight path. With a rail that may take you to another path.
      Seems to me it's a slow start-with the difficulty growing as you progress. Leakers in multiple instances have said each island has 7 levels.
      Sonic still has his free movement from the Open Zones.
      I mean he literally doesnt have the boost.
      We call these "boost" stages. But who's to say Open Zone elements wont bleed into these segments. Its called "cyberspace" and the whole game takes place in a cyber world. Sonic most likely will have enemies from Open Zone in the "boost stages". There's a chance the controls are free because platforming will become a bigger focus.
      Remember a big complaint and criticism from fans. Is that the focus of the modern games is mastering the stage to keep up the boost. Maybe they removed the boost to go back to platforming/combat/and give players control over speed.
      We've seen 3 stages thus far. I refuse to think they did so much for the open zone. But gone make cyberspace 90 second straight lines. Plus we dont even know where lower or upper paths lead. Even the demo's can be vertical slices. Hiding moments that will be present in the full game.

    Between Forces, Omens, and Frontiers, I'm thoroughly burned out on Sonic on all fronts between both Sega/Sonic Team and indies alike. Not necessarily hating on Frontiers, but in-game presentation looks really, really rough compared to all other 3D platforming contemporaries, especially on PS5 where Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart absolutely thrashes the presentation of Frontiers. Frontiers does seem more promising than Forces, but it is STILL horrifically lacking in many aspects. At the end of the day though, I don't really want anything to do with the blue hedgehog himself anymore. At least Spark the Electric Jester 2 and 3 maintain the spirit of when 3D Sonic was good, and Freedom Planet by the end of the first one's development really managed to differentiate itself from 2D Sonic, with the 2nd game truly being its own thing

    I don't think it's necessarily fair to compare 5 seconds of the cyber space levels to some of the best levels from gens/unleashed. The levels we are seeing are from early in the game, if you want to compare this footage then you should compare it to the first levels of gens/unleashed not ones from later into the game. When you first play gens/unleashed the levels had a tutorial nature within them but got more challenging in future levels. As the game progresses I'm sure that the level design will get more challenging and upscaled as the directors have been saying that this game's demographic is targeted at more veteran fans.

    The trailer left me feeling weird. Like there was very little actually _wrong,_ but I still can't get hype for it. I guess I've just been disappointed too many times, lately. New Sonic material hasn't been enjoyable to me for about a decade now, around the time that the games swan-dived into the Meta Era and the Archie comics fell off a cliff in terms of quality.
    I'll believe it's good when it's in the hands of reviewers I trust and they're saying good things about it.
    Also I do not want _another_ Sonic Morality Debate Story. I honestly hope Sage is just doing a Villain Bit instead of having a point, because they've been doing this since Archie and they never go anywhere other than "Sonic is 100% correct and everybody criticising him is wrong."

    Matt, Sonic Generations can run on a laptop APU. And almost every time that developers add "minimum" requirements, they're usually not accurate because it depends on what the devs think "playable" is. I think 720p 30fps is playable, while others may think that only 1080p 60fps is playable (which is kinda stupid tbh). If my 1050-Ti can run Cyberbug 2077, I think it can run Frontiers

    Personally I am no boost fan, I really like exploring and grinding if these things done well, I like that we have an open world that is full of different collectibles and I like that we can do it in many ways, puzzles, combat or even exploring or other challenges, have the cyperspace as extra mode I think it’s a brilliant idea even if they are short like forces but with a better control, the story looks promising and the cgi is great, my only concern here that it is a missed opportunity if they don’t include a Koko’s garden, in open world we should have more reasons to explore and grind, If they don’t include a Koko’s garden at least they can include a separate village for sonic friends that he rescue and we can find some coins or rings that help to evolve and develop this village, otherwise this game is perfect for my taste

Even in-game Sonic has very expressive facial animations and the fights look WAY more dynamic than previous games. Even the camera angles look dynamic.

There was full gameplay of green hill and sky sanctuary and it’s forces design but there’s slightly more room, and more control is given to the player (and sonic isn’t op) so it’s better than forces from what I’ve seen imo, I’m excited for the game at this point, and I don’t think that opinion will change in the near future
