Sonic Generations was already my favorite boost game, and Shadow Generations looks like it could even rival base generations. Doom Powers look really interesting and from the footage we got, they flow into gameplay very well.
This game is probably going to sell well because there hasn't been a single trailer that people hate. There isn't a single thing that people can complain about. every video on UA-cam only talks positively about this game. They really learned from the Sonic frontiers trailers
I don't think that Shadow is fighting Neo Metal in the Chemical Plant, I think that it's Final Fortress after falling into the ocean (like the Egg Carrier), this could also be a nod to the concept art of Final Fortress being an underwater base
A few things to say First, consider in the base Generations you had many side missions and levels that granted you music notes, and since they were a lot, Generations had the idea to give different time of day to spice up the visuals a little. The levels were also very gimmicky in nature, focusing on one part of level design. Explaining the many different sky colors we see Radical Highway in, and the tornadoes could just be one of those gimmicks. Second, in base Generations it was required for characters to be attached to a certain level, Cream was attached to Speed Highway, Tails to Green Hill, Amy to Chemical Plant, Vector to Rooftop Run, Charmy to Planet Wisp (if you don't consider the DS Color I guess??) anyways just to say it's all mixed up, so Shadow being in Chaos Island is not odd. Thirds, still on the topic of Chaos Island, althought it seems odd to have "future locations' from future games, but when you think about it, it's not because they are eplored in future games that they don't exist in the world, the Starfall Island still exist, even if the Sonic Team didn't explore it, and so are subject to be absorbed by the Time Eater. I guess one thing that would contradict that theory is if Sunset City is destroyed, which would be a proof of events, but we see only the sewers in the trailer, so no proof of exterior debris. (Actually, while writing all that I just thought of something, scrap everything I just said, there is a Forces Death Egg Robot in Chaos Island, so that proves it comes from the future, I will not erase what I just said because I still think it's interesting, but yeah, they comes from the future I guess) Fourth point, about other characters in general, in the trailer we can see Omega in the background, in Generation there some missions where the characters you just saved would either challenge of help you through a level, so it's inetresting to think what they could do with Omaga. Will Shadow save anyone else? Rouge was already saved by Sonic, I think it's possible maybe he saves Silver in the Kingdom Valley section? Unless they make a point the 3 Hedgehogs are the only one not affected by the Time Eater (although they could make an exception for Silver.. because he is Silver) Also is the Metal Overlord we see the same Metal Classic Sonic thought in the base game? Or is it a different Modern Metal that is unrelated, giving Metal the same treatment Sonc Tails and Eggman has, having 2 versions of themselves. Also if they bring back fishing because it is a miniature Frontiers, I think it will be hilarious for Shadow to save Big the Cat from white space which would grant access to fishing. Also, if Shadow has access to the Future, will Sage be a save-able character? If my memory is correct, she was compared to Maria by Eggman, and is pretty much is Eggman's equivalent to Gerald's Maria, so interactions between Shadow and Sage would be interesting. Also obviously, Infinte, I don't have anything to say, just Infinite. Also last thing about other characters, considering Generations had rival characters for each chunk of levels, as well as Sonic having fought Shadow in the Ark in one of those fights, and if the story happens in parallel to Sonic, does that confirm that we will get the same Rival Fight with Sonic? This time in Shadow's perspective of course, fighting Sonic would be cool regardless but it also makes a perfect Adventure 2 Parallel. Speaking or rival characters, is the Metal Overlord really a Boss Fight? Or is he a Rival Fight of the Modern Metal Sonic, will Silver also get a Rival Fight with Shadow? And final point, considering Black Doom had a stone specifically made for him in the White Space, does that confirm the Time Eater and Black Doom are linked? Possibly being a creation of Black Doom before Shadow like I saw someone saying, also I am curious of the potential lore they will add to the Ancients and if they had any relations to the Black Arms, which I believe is one of the reasons why they brought Frontiers back so early. And of course I think they will be something to figure out with Solaris and Mephiles, I don't see how it's possible to live in a Timeline where the Time Eater and Mephiles are completely unrelated, if my memory is correct, in 06 they were secret lore in the walls of Dusty Desert or something were the flame of Solaris was being given to Soleana or something, and we know Black Doom has visited Earth a long time ago and had a temple in Glyphic Canyon. But yeah, this is all I have to say.
4:15 im wondering what the music for chaos island is gonna be like since i doubt theyll go with the ambient tone of the open zone for a boost stage. if they give us some remix variation of find your flame somewhere in this stages music... oml
I`m glad they took from forces and frontiers I saw a lot of people saying that could not happen! but I always disagree Generations is a time travel plot not one of memories time is non liner they can take from past present or future I did not matter. Im hoping for infinite boss fight with the defeated infinite meeting generations shadow who dose not care or knows who he is kinda like Scarlet Witch vs Thanos! Infinite: You took..EVERYTHING FROM ME! Gens shadow: I don't even know who you are?
Paramount has until September 20th at latest to drop the trailer they legitimately can't drop it any later but I'm suspecting it will drop this or next week bur yeah Sonic X Shadow Generations looks so good and fun! 😭
One thing I noticed is that the doom egg altar things are eerily similar to the Cyber Cages from Sonic Frontiers, specifically the way they break open and corrupt the main characters and grant them new abilities
It's possible that some of the stages we see are Challenge stages, since we know for a fact those are back. The Wing focused versions of Radical Highway and Ivan Ooze-ified Chaos Island are both possibly power-up challenges rather than actual cuts from the proper levels, but we'll have to wait and see. I'm extremely excited no matter what, I'm already beyond satisfied with the amount of content in the game
1:38 ah yes the rule where each level gets each stage per level makes sense and i think you meant each game edit: also it will be hard to beat unleashed but it might
I know everyone glorifies the daytime levels in Unleashed, but Sonic X Shadow Generations looks like the best Sonic game through and through. I think it is important to look at what the entire experience has, and in Unleashed there are a ton of flaws that Sonic x S Gens surpasses. There is no medal collecting, no Warehog taking up 2/3 of the experience, no unnecessary gimmicks like Wisps like in Forces and Lost World, no cringe dialogue like in original Generarions, and better level design than anything in the last decade. (From what we have seen so far anyway)
I am SO GLAD you mentioned the poster! I watched several people announce this and you’re the first one who has brought up the poster. I wonder if the creators are implying something 🤔
Im so excited for this not only because sega might be able to do a relresase of a past video game right bhut also show us that they can do more remakes/remasters/ports right in the future. Also this game i belive could be a turning point because kishimoto or sega i belove one of the 2 said that if sonic games can be the same quality as the mario games in the future that they may do a actaul crossover with them thats not the olympic games and i feel like sonic x shadow generations is getting us closer to that point.
I actually think it could. At first I was sceptical, but honestly after the last trailer, it could be a worthy product. I don’t think it could possibly be any more mediocre than Forces, as that was the bottom of the barrel of boost gameplay. Plus the quality looks insanely high! I agree that Unleashed was better than Generations because of the challenge its levels offered, and this game looks like it could be taking that same design philosophy and implementing it in new ways by combining it creatively with those Shadow powerups! It can only get better from here!
I’ve never seen anyone even consider this, but is it possible that we could be getting a lost world level as well? They got forces and frontiers in there, so it isn’t too much of a stretch.
Its not even a could anymore bro. Gonna say it, but this game has TO BE one of the better reviewed Sonic Games. I am not accepting any 7/10 from IGN Will i regret saying that? Absolutely not that's how hyped I am
I do NOT know how you managed to pinpoint network terminal as the location for the Metal Overlord fight Lmao. It's definetly either that or maybe Metal Harbor from Sa2
9:03 that kinda sucks but u gotta remember the game is gonna get content updates like frontiers if u get the deluxe edition (i think its deluxe maybe its called smth else)
The last time I was hyped about seeing shadow was in the game with Shadow the Hedgehog on PlayStation 2 and GameCube. years later 2024 Sonic x Shadow Generations Adding new sonic gen bosses Metal Overlord, Black Doom, Bio Lizard. Who else is Shadow gonna fight? Sonic at Space Colony Ark, Super Shadow vs Devil Doom, Mephlies The Dark and Solaris! The possibilities is endless thank you so much Sega for giving Shadow the light once again!!
I bet if this sells well like really well, SEGA might put into more big budget projects so they can put in more to make it that Sonic adventure/Sonic unleashed type of budget work
ik thgis is another comment but im watching through the video and commenting but its cool that they kinda have the 06 mash attack kinda with doom blast but better or as a move
I will say the breaking of the wall for the blast move looked a lil… not good. I’m still super excited for this game. But a few things got me like ehhhhhh graphic wise.
Y'know, after seeing so many people get insanely hyped up with this game, I really have to say that DO NOT. The last time that happened, it permanently fucking traumatized the Sonic fandom as a whole. Yeah, the game looks very good and it actually feels that Sonic Team hired a professional cinematographer to do the cutscenes, but let's not kid ourselves here, just because it looks good doesn't mean it's all-round good. This game could definitely be just a mediocre game and the fandom would break once again due to the expectations not being reached. Putting the expectations so goddamn high is not really healthy with anything including Sonic. I think the game will be good? Yes, but I doubt that it would be to highest peak this franchise has ever experienced or some shit like that. That's not to offend Shaulov10 for putting this title, but once I saw this title, I just had to write this. Also, thanks for reading all of this ranting I just did.
See I made a whole video comparing the first level of shadow gens vs lost valley and mortar canyon from forces. And from what I have seen I think I’m confident in saying this game will be really good. The difference between forces and this game is that they showed just enough to get us hyped, but kept enough hidden so we couldn’t tell what the actual game was. Also they straight up used false advertising with chaos in the trailers. Here, there actually showing full gameplay, hell we have a full level and not only does it look fun but it also seems well designed. And each trailer they show just looks better and better. I think telling people not to be excited just cause it can be bad is not right, you can be sceptical but you shouldn’t tell everyone else not to be excited
My point is not that you should not be excited, since I am. But you should, at the very least, be a little skeptical considering the shit the brand has been giving us all these years. If I didn't manage to get this feeling with my rant, then I'm sorry. Generations, Colors and Mania were exceptions of just overall great games, they were never the norm.
Hold on a bunch of new bosses, they only showed biolizard and metal overlord well yeah black doom is gonna be a boss but so far there’s only three bosses though if they had mephiles i’ll be happy
I haven’t seen anyone mention this, but in the Radical Highway day area, Shadow is using Doom Spear AND Doom Wing. Does this mean they’ll all be available all the time, unlike Sonic Gens where you’re limited on abilities??? Edit: the upside down part
It's "jam-packed" not "cram-packed." Felt like you were combining cramped and jam-packed into one word and failed. But hey, you'll get it next time, champ
FR BRO AND I KNOW ITS PROB BIAS AND STUFF BUT ITS GOATED LIKE HOLY HELL IT LOOKS GOOD IT IS GOOD THE POWERS ARE WAY BETTER THAN THOSE STUPID WISPS COMBAT IS COOL SEGA KEEPS COOKING AGAIN
As a whole of both combined: yes Each individually: probably not Reason being sonic will have the great level design which shadow has the story and edginess. I not saying shadow gens wont have good level design but compared to unleashed probably not
None of you can see, but I’m laughing like a villain seeing how excited you people are. SEGA has always been good at hiding imperfections. Doesn’t anyone remember Sonic 06 before it actually released? Overhype before the fall. This is what usually always happens to Sonic games. Not just from Sega I played Unleashed before Generations, and guess what? Sonic Unleashed will always get mixed reviews and I loved every aspect of it, EVERYTHING. As for Sonic Generations, which was considered the best boost game ever even before this remaster releases, I was extremely disappointed. Same for Frontiers, Sega fumbled with some early teasers and then proceeded with a hype train. I even preordered Frontiers! Disappointed once more, at least Frontiers can be improved in a sequel. So yeah you people get disappointed while I still got all of the Unleashed DLC to play.😂
Don't get me wrong, it's good- Just not as good as Unleashed, not even close in my opinion 😂 The main thing holding it back for me is that they're still using the new physics engine they made alongside HE2, and sure, it's been heavily improved since Forces but it still pales in comparison to the physics engine in Unleashed and Generations (Go watch any video where people compare Unleashed or Generations stages to their Cyberspace versions, and you'll see what I mean)
@@UziBro first of all. HE2 is a graphics engine not a physics engine. 2nd. Unleashed ain’t all that, let’s talk about the medals, the tornado stages, the wearhog. The game is 60% bad. Every boost game dosent have to be unleashed. Maybe they want to I don’t know, evolve the boost so it Doesn’t stagnant
@@shaulov10 I'm well aware HE2 is a graphics engine, I'm just pointing out that ever since they started using it, they also implemented a new physics engine My problem is the new physics engine used alongside HE2, is worse. I think we can all agree the physics in Unleashed and Generations was miles better, it was way faster, and a lot more fluid Don't get me wrong, I love the new Doom powers and how they evolve the Boost gameplay, I never said "Oh, every Boost game has to be the same" I said the new physics engine specifically is a huge downgrade from the original, and in my opinion makes Unleashed and Generations the far more enjoyable games
I don't see it beating Sonic unleashed. Also at least for me i am not a fan of teh doom powers although i imagine shadow will be more combat focused in level design. I don't see there being enough mechanical deph and nuance to keep me hooked like unleashed personally. I am pretty skeptical of the new formula already but thats basing it off a recurring pattern that has yet to change in this series. Level design wise still need to see something other than the ark to make an opinion cause i am not sold at all on it yet. I just want more synergy, flow, nuance and level design like eggmanland and gens seaside hill. Is that too much to ask for. A moveset and formula that focuses on flow and has every move in the kit have its use that helps keep the flow going without slowing the player down if the player is good? Only 1 or 2 ways to halt all speed and flow like stomp and maybe some ground action other than slide and i would love if homing attack got an overhaul or was removed/replaced at this point too. I just think its being used as a crutch and a horrible crutch at that at this point. With how automated homing attack already is not a fan that rails can also be homing attacked.
I think this is what people don’t understand. Maybe SXSG is trying to evolve the boost formula to try and mix it with SA2 and the boost. You can’t just have the same style for over a decade it’s gonna get stale. Also half of unleashed is bad
@@shaulov10 To each their own. I love werehog and boost stuff. Also SA2 sucks imo. I only like 2-3 speed stages at most and dislike everything else and most would agree 2/3rds of SA2 sucks that being mech and treasure hunting which is more than the 1/2 of unleashed. My issue with the doompowers is they don't feel like they will add much to the game and stages and the one i like the least is the wings. It just looks like a powerup to skip over level design by just boosting and being in the air although its definitely on a timer right like chaos control is? I don't agree you can't have the same style for over a decade if you tweak and improve the style which they don't imo and usually as the formulas progress they remove some of the nuance and deph and tend to oversimplify stuff just to make it easier to pick up and play. Examples being like level design shift from SA1-SA2. Trick system from rush removed in unleashed. Colors removing drift and QTE pads. Gens brought back drift but simplified it and made it less fun to use and learn. Shadow gens taking inspiration from SA2 level design doesn't seem exactly promising to me but its too early for me to say this about level design but if the other levels are like the ark then its not touching unleashed. The first example of convenience and simplification in the series i would say is the spindash. Then homing attack which has not changed since its inception which should be considered criminal at this point.
@@shaulov10 Seen the new footage and the level design is mixing teh best parts of unleashed and SA2 level design. Its really good. I no longer worry and am not skeptical anymore. Also it doesn't matter is sonic's theme again. We are so back!😃
@@shaulov10Sonic wins, remember Shadow Generations takes during Sonic Generations which means Sonic had a boss battle with Shadow and won so Sonic pre-frontiers beats Shadow even with the doom powers
Sonic unleashed is still the better game because of all the tiny nuisances in the physics. And it’s still built of frontiers which was built off forces which was built of lost world if the game is built of lost world it is going to have physics that aren’t as complex like in unleashed. But the pacing for unleashed on a first play through is horrible as you don’t know how to play the werehog and the level ups and medal collecting is bad. But on repeat playthroughs I will only prefer shadow generations if you include regular generations as I prefer unleashed to generations because there is more things and the levels are better in unleashed but if you combine sonic and shadow generations as on game I think I will probably prefer generations to unleashed. Although we don’t know what the pacing is going to be like. Hopefully it’s just banger level after banger level but you never know they might make doom powers required for progression but make it so you have to play a stage a certain number of times and make you repeat stuff. I’m not saying they will but they normally have a catch in most sonic games. I’m just waiting for it to show up, I might have to play the game to find it but there is usually something holding it back. Only until I’ve played the game will I be able to say for sure that sonic is in good hands
Not trying to be nit picking but, why are they putting chaos island in sonic x shadow generations cuz if sonic x shadow generations is following the sonic generations story then how is chaos island apart of it shadow doesn't even go to chaos island heck he isn't even frontiers sonic metions him tho but, i mean it looks cool and fun but i don't know how sega is going to explain this.
@@shadowxphoenix8674 aight it ain’t THAT bad. It’s just people glaze the game but only talk about the boost stages and conveniently forget the other half
It’s amazing but stop acting like it could never be beaten (I’m tired of people thinking Unleashed will forever be the best boost game) It’s good but don’t overhype it
@@Sonic171KI’m not telling u what to do. And I agree dude But Unleashed shouldn’t be the peak of the boost games Just because it’s the best doesn’t mean it can’t be better and isn’t weak in some aspects
Sonic Generations was already my favorite boost game, and Shadow Generations looks like it could even rival base generations. Doom Powers look really interesting and from the footage we got, they flow into gameplay very well.
sonic generations is on a generational run (pun intended)

Like honestly this is one of if not the most positively received sonic game in ages
@@shaulov10 Then there are idiots who chase clout.
@@shaulov10probably only rivaled by the original generations
Shadow Generations is basically Shadow the Hedgehog 2, 19 years after the first game in November 2005
Basically
I don't think that Shadow is fighting Neo Metal in the Chemical Plant, I think that it's Final Fortress after falling into the ocean (like the Egg Carrier), this could also be a nod to the concept art of Final Fortress being an underwater base
Idk maybe but to me it looks too much like network terminal
Makes sense considering the shit stages all teams were on when Metal Transformed...
@@shaulov10 just cos the water and long towers... ya idiot its egg fortresss look at the colours
Ye, thats def Final Fortress.
@@shaulov10 The assets are from forces, but its supposed to be final fortress
The posters are definitely a form of insane trolling on Black Doom's part.
That would be fun ahh hell
@@shaulov10 Its kind of spooky though, as it makes him feel almost omniscient and omnipresent.

This is the best 3D Sonic game period.

Also, the Blaze rival battle should be here somewhere...

I hope so

Agreed,also it might be like the bes 3D sonic game adventure boost whatever you want

Who else is Shadow gonna fight? Sonic at Space Colony Ark, Super Shadow vs Devil Doom, Mephlies The Dark and Solaris! The possibilities is endless thank you so much Sega for giving Shadow the light once again!!
Tbf Sega did him dirty ever since 06, he hasn’t had any good moments or any prominent role so I’m finally happy to see him in the spot light again
Finally pre order the damn thing today, foaming at the mouth waiting for the 25th
Gonna get that collectors edition lock in
already preordered the base edition.
the collector’s edition is making my wallet turn to ash as we speak.
I bet if this sells well like really well, SEGA might put into more big budget projects so they can put in more to make it that Sonic adventure/Sonic unleashed type of budget work
Bro if this is the polish and quality for the next open zone game imma cry
I don't think Shadows Game is a boost game it's more an adventure/boost style, which I'm here for 🙌
@@YourBoiiRoy 100%
Is the collection edition only for NTSC (USA)?
I’m not sure
ik thgis is another comment but im watching through the video and commenting but its cool that they kinda have the 06 mash attack kinda with doom blast but better or as a move
Its gonna be the BEST SONIC GAME, EVER
I REALLY F*CKING HOPE SO. 🙌 I’m getting an Xbox just to play this game, it better be worth it!
I 100% agree
Cyberspace isn't all reused assets coughing 4_2
I will say the breaking of the wall for the blast move looked a lil… not good. I’m still super excited for this game. But a few things got me like ehhhhhh graphic wise.
Y'know, after seeing so many people get insanely hyped up with this game, I really have to say that DO NOT. The last time that happened, it permanently fucking traumatized the Sonic fandom as a whole.
Yeah, the game looks very good and it actually feels that Sonic Team hired a professional cinematographer to do the cutscenes, but let's not kid ourselves here, just because it looks good doesn't mean it's all-round good. This game could definitely be just a mediocre game and the fandom would break once again due to the expectations not being reached. Putting the expectations so goddamn high is not really healthy with anything including Sonic. I think the game will be good? Yes, but I doubt that it would be to highest peak this franchise has ever experienced or some shit like that.
That's not to offend Shaulov10 for putting this title, but once I saw this title, I just had to write this.
Also, thanks for reading all of this ranting I just did.
See I made a whole video comparing the first level of shadow gens vs lost valley and mortar canyon from forces. And from what I have seen I think I’m confident in saying this game will be really good. The difference between forces and this game is that they showed just enough to get us hyped, but kept enough hidden so we couldn’t tell what the actual game was. Also they straight up used false advertising with chaos in the trailers. Here, there actually showing full gameplay, hell we have a full level and not only does it look fun but it also seems well designed. And each trailer they show just looks better and better. I think telling people not to be excited just cause it can be bad is not right, you can be sceptical but you shouldn’t tell everyone else not to be excited
My point is not that you should not be excited, since I am. But you should, at the very least, be a little skeptical considering the shit the brand has been giving us all these years. If I didn't manage to get this feeling with my rant, then I'm sorry.
Generations, Colors and Mania were exceptions of just overall great games, they were never the norm.
You earned yourself a new sub. I like your channel :D
Thank you man
@@shaulov10 Yw! I also preordered the digital deluxe version of this game. Can't wait to see if it's awesome, even though I know it already is
@@famgamescreation you know your boy gotta get the collectors edition (even if it takes a year to get to me)
@@shaulov10 Bro's on an adventure. A Sonic Adventure 💀
Hold on a bunch of new bosses, they only showed biolizard and metal overlord well yeah black doom is gonna be a boss but so far there’s only three bosses though if they had mephiles i’ll be happy
I need to hook the audience, let a brother get a bag
I haven’t seen anyone mention this, but in the Radical Highway day area, Shadow is using Doom Spear AND Doom Wing. Does this mean they’ll all be available all the time, unlike Sonic Gens where you’re limited on abilities???
Edit: the upside down part
Yeah probably. It’s probably gonna be used to platform
It's "jam-packed" not "cram-packed." Felt like you were combining cramped and jam-packed into one word and failed. But hey, you'll get it next time, champ
Have you not heard the term cram-packed
10:24 Unc-lov10 losing track of time, come with the old age buddy
At least it doesn't look like Forces Overclocked anymore.
What’s wrong with over clocked
What’s wrong with over clocked
It's a slightly better version of Forces, but we can clearly see that Shadow Gens has decent gameplay.
Bro some of those stages looks like it's from sonic frontiers
Well one of those stages IS cause it’s chaos island
I want Shadow to become super again
I’m praying for a titan style fight with devil doom
Shadow NOW can compete with frontiers sonic
Possibly
I don't care, I need Shaulov10 tootsie reveal NOW
YOUR SICK
Sonic unleashed: Am I a joke to you?
bro the game aint out yet and it already looks better than unleashed , the shadow generations tutorial level tutorial level is like 7 minutes
@@quandaledingleofficial6i think stages will be longer and harder pause 😂
Ngl sonic unleashed is kinda mid
Sonic unleashed fans when you bring up anything besides the boost stages 🤫
@@dark_nightwing_xl2797Nah resume. I need this game to release so I can play with that Big Black Hog…🤣
wow!!!
WOW!!!
FR BRO AND I KNOW ITS PROB BIAS AND STUFF BUT ITS GOATED LIKE HOLY HELL IT LOOKS GOOD IT IS GOOD THE POWERS ARE WAY BETTER THAN THOSE STUPID WISPS COMBAT IS COOL SEGA KEEPS COOKING AGAIN
It was all over the screen when i saw this😔
alriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight
nah bro
Got too excited…
As a whole of both combined: yes
Each individually: probably not
Reason being sonic will have the great level design which shadow has the story and edginess. I not saying shadow gens wont have good level design but compared to unleashed probably not
real question: how this gonna look on a Switch😭
10:07 fin.
None of you can see, but I’m laughing like a villain seeing how excited you people are. SEGA has always been good at hiding imperfections. Doesn’t anyone remember Sonic 06 before it actually released? Overhype before the fall. This is what usually always happens to Sonic games. Not just from Sega I played Unleashed before Generations, and guess what? Sonic Unleashed will always get mixed reviews and I loved every aspect of it, EVERYTHING. As for Sonic Generations, which was considered the best boost game ever even before this remaster releases, I was extremely disappointed. Same for Frontiers, Sega fumbled with some early teasers and then proceeded with a hype train. I even preordered Frontiers! Disappointed once more, at least Frontiers can be improved in a sequel. So yeah you people get disappointed while I still got all of the Unleashed DLC to play.😂
“I’m laughing like a villain🤓” nah you’re just miserable
Don't get me wrong, it's good- Just not as good as Unleashed, not even close in my opinion 😂
The main thing holding it back for me is that they're still using the new physics engine they made alongside HE2, and sure, it's been heavily improved since Forces but it still pales in comparison to the physics engine in Unleashed and Generations
(Go watch any video where people compare Unleashed or Generations stages to their Cyberspace versions, and you'll see what I mean)
@@UziBro first of all. HE2 is a graphics engine not a physics engine.
2nd. Unleashed ain’t all that, let’s talk about the medals, the tornado stages, the wearhog. The game is 60% bad.
Every boost game dosent have to be unleashed. Maybe they want to I don’t know, evolve the boost so it Doesn’t stagnant
@@shaulov10 I'm well aware HE2 is a graphics engine, I'm just pointing out that ever since they started using it, they also implemented a new physics engine
My problem is the new physics engine used alongside HE2, is worse. I think we can all agree the physics in Unleashed and Generations was miles better, it was way faster, and a lot more fluid
Don't get me wrong, I love the new Doom powers and how they evolve the Boost gameplay, I never said "Oh, every Boost game has to be the same" I said the new physics engine specifically is a huge downgrade from the original, and in my opinion makes Unleashed and Generations the far more enjoyable games
I don't see it beating Sonic unleashed. Also at least for me i am not a fan of teh doom powers although i imagine shadow will be more combat focused in level design. I don't see there being enough mechanical deph and nuance to keep me hooked like unleashed personally. I am pretty skeptical of the new formula already but thats basing it off a recurring pattern that has yet to change in this series. Level design wise still need to see something other than the ark to make an opinion cause i am not sold at all on it yet. I just want more synergy, flow, nuance and level design like eggmanland and gens seaside hill. Is that too much to ask for. A moveset and formula that focuses on flow and has every move in the kit have its use that helps keep the flow going without slowing the player down if the player is good? Only 1 or 2 ways to halt all speed and flow like stomp and maybe some ground action other than slide and i would love if homing attack got an overhaul or was removed/replaced at this point too. I just think its being used as a crutch and a horrible crutch at that at this point. With how automated homing attack already is not a fan that rails can also be homing attacked.
I think this is what people don’t understand. Maybe SXSG is trying to evolve the boost formula to try and mix it with SA2 and the boost. You can’t just have the same style for over a decade it’s gonna get stale. Also half of unleashed is bad
@@shaulov10 To each their own. I love werehog and boost stuff. Also SA2 sucks imo. I only like 2-3 speed stages at most and dislike everything else and most would agree 2/3rds of SA2 sucks that being mech and treasure hunting which is more than the 1/2 of unleashed. My issue with the doompowers is they don't feel like they will add much to the game and stages and the one i like the least is the wings. It just looks like a powerup to skip over level design by just boosting and being in the air although its definitely on a timer right like chaos control is? I don't agree you can't have the same style for over a decade if you tweak and improve the style which they don't imo and usually as the formulas progress they remove some of the nuance and deph and tend to oversimplify stuff just to make it easier to pick up and play. Examples being like level design shift from SA1-SA2. Trick system from rush removed in unleashed. Colors removing drift and QTE pads. Gens brought back drift but simplified it and made it less fun to use and learn. Shadow gens taking inspiration from SA2 level design doesn't seem exactly promising to me but its too early for me to say this about level design but if the other levels are like the ark then its not touching unleashed. The first example of convenience and simplification in the series i would say is the spindash. Then homing attack which has not changed since its inception which should be considered criminal at this point.
@@shaulov10 Seen the new footage and the level design is mixing teh best parts of unleashed and SA2 level design. Its really good. I no longer worry and am not skeptical anymore. Also it doesn't matter is sonic's theme again. We are so back!😃
Sonic with his frontiers powers vs shadow with his doom powers?…who else would like to see this fight?…
Probably shadow
@@shaulov10Super Sonic 2 disagree...
I would love to see it happen!
@@solaris3251Base Form Only
@@shaulov10Sonic wins, remember Shadow Generations takes during Sonic Generations which means Sonic had a boss battle with Shadow and won so Sonic pre-frontiers beats Shadow even with the doom powers
Who know, animation looks gud
its such an improvement from frontiers
It is. I hope people who use Blender for Sonic animations to animate this game because uh...yeah
@@shaulov10looks like similar level to unleashed
Sonic unleashed is still the better game because of all the tiny nuisances in the physics. And it’s still built of frontiers which was built off forces which was built of lost world if the game is built of lost world it is going to have physics that aren’t as complex like in unleashed. But the pacing for unleashed on a first play through is horrible as you don’t know how to play the werehog and the level ups and medal collecting is bad. But on repeat playthroughs I will only prefer shadow generations if you include regular generations as I prefer unleashed to generations because there is more things and the levels are better in unleashed but if you combine sonic and shadow generations as on game I think I will probably prefer generations to unleashed. Although we don’t know what the pacing is going to be like. Hopefully it’s just banger level after banger level but you never know they might make doom powers required for progression but make it so you have to play a stage a certain number of times and make you repeat stuff. I’m not saying they will but they normally have a catch in most sonic games. I’m just waiting for it to show up, I might have to play the game to find it but there is usually something holding it back. Only until I’ve played the game will I be able to say for sure that sonic is in good hands
The thing is… half of unleashed is not fun, and like you said, the pacing on first play though is not fun.
Not trying to be nit picking but, why are they putting chaos island in sonic x shadow generations cuz if sonic x shadow generations is following the sonic generations story then how is chaos island apart of it shadow doesn't even go to chaos island heck he isn't even frontiers sonic metions him tho but, i mean it looks cool and fun but i don't know how sega is going to explain this.
Time travel, there your explanation
@@shaulov10 it looks fun don't get me wrong it makes me excited for October
Im gonna tweak out why tf did you say "bye bye" like that bro this the first vid i watch of you and thats how it ends 😭 😭 😭 😭
Welcome
There is no Big so this game is a big L, I'm right, you're wrong, Big is the best character in fiction, enough said
Not could. Will.
Didn’t you say you DESPISE sonic gens?
Why do people like sonic unleashed I put that game up there' with sonic o6 it was cheesy
@@shadowxphoenix8674 aight it ain’t THAT bad. It’s just people glaze the game but only talk about the boost stages and conveniently forget the other half
it will not beat frontiers dud
Who said it would? Tf
@@shaulov10 yes i know you didnt say that, no need more "tf" lol
Sega finally giving Unleashed some competition
Bro unleashed ain’t all that when you realize half of that game is a bad god of war clone
@@shaulov10 I actually kinda enjoy the Werehog gameplay☹️
Stupid video title. Sonic Unleashed will always be the best boost game.
It’s amazing but stop acting like it could never be beaten (I’m tired of people thinking Unleashed will forever be the best boost game)
It’s good but don’t overhype it
@@rando6677Don’t tell me what to do. Sega/Sonic Team still hasn’t surpassed Sonic Unleashed as an overall 3D Sonic game imo.
Don’t ask sonic unleashed fans about the midhog
@@shaulov10 I like the gameplay. Werehog haters can keep crying about it. Lol
@@Sonic171KI’m not telling u what to do. And I agree dude
But Unleashed shouldn’t be the peak of the boost games
Just because it’s the best doesn’t mean it can’t be better and isn’t weak in some aspects
To celebrate im looking at sonic x shadow gay art.
it looks like a forces 2 UGH......
just kidding
