I casually upgraded stuff whenever I ran into the hermit, everything past giganto became easy to one phase as long as I used Parry's and special moves.
I think *most* combat systems are better in that circumstance, and if they aren't, then something might be wrong with them. At least, from my experience.
Bossfights and overall Minibosses in frontiers are more fun when you’re not one shotting everything imo. Sonic gets extremely op if you keep upgrading his attack and defense stats.
Facts I got him to level 34 in attack on kronos island and i can damn near 1 shot mans. Dont get me started on how dirty i did wyvern. I wish we could remove his power level or lower it for a while to make boss fights a challenge
yes it's fun to face the bosses of sonic frontiers at level 1, but in my point of view, that forces you to finish the fights quickly before the rings are over and you can't "play arroud" with the bosses, anyway it's just my point of view.
My favorite part about the Super Sonic boss fights, is how Sonic is using the power of the chaos emeralds, in ways we've never seen before the in games, except fan animation and the comics, I especially like how Sonic is able to make doppelgangers of himself and create shadow kicks and punches!
It's been established that the Chaos Emeralds can make wishes and thoughts real, so I think Super Sonic can shape weapons and objects on his mind and materialize them.
I think it is the same as how shadow use it. it is just before this we always see super sonic form shortly that sonic has rarely use its feats. but even in the past sonic has been showing that he can do what shadow can do too, just with less power From what I observe, I think chaos control work differently on sonic and shadow, although giving them the same ability. for shadow, chaos control is boosting his psychic power massively, and for sonic, chaos control is boosting his physical power massively. but both still get boost at both psychic and physical power
in Sonic Chronicles The Dark Brotherhood (not canon now) Super Sonic could shoot energy blast like this game in the "boss fight" it was a 25 second cutscene.
@XGaming4K As far as gameplay and story beats go, Sonic 06 was supposed to be adventure 3, and after that game flopped they abandoned that play style. They brought it back somewhat in lost worlds but yea
Sonic has got to be the most terrifying thing to fight against this game, not because of his speed or strength or even his skills. No, it’s mostly because he can hold his Parry Stance for FIFTEEN BLOODY SECONDS.
For a while I thought I had to release the parry buttons right as the attack hit, when I learned you can just hold the stance the entire time it felt like I became untouchable - definitely should at least be a teeny bit stricter in execution
What I love most about this game's abilities is that it recaptures the old feeling that Sonic really is a powerful being. We've always heard about how Shadow is the supposed "ultimate life form", but we forget that his resemblance to Sonic is no wonder, as the blue hedgehog was once able to use chaos control only with a fake emerald.
Not to mention him beating Perfect Chaos in Generations without Super form, just shows you that Sonic keeps getting stronger, faster and more powerful in general.
I did an entire playthrough at level 1 to make this video, I beat Frontiers like 6 times at this point. :D I got to say it was worth it though, since the boss fights are way more epic to fight like this. Sega needs to add a boss rush mode. You actually have time to try cyloop and try other combos on the bosses.
@@justahedgehog5079 I mean any game is replayable, just got to be creative. There isn't a harder difficulty unfortunately I just decided not to level up.
@@sonicovertime how did you gain all the abilities on the first island, you just have to 100% it (while you make a lot of fights)? Or did you make repetitive (maybe boring at that point) fights only with the enemies on Kronos till you had all the exp to unlock the abilities?
This is exactly what I'm wanting to do on my next playthrough. Everything was piss easy for me even being on hard mode. I even actually purposely died multiple times on each titan fight just to playthrough the fight more. Sonic frontiers is actually making me wanna do challenge runs if I can think of some good ones and that is something a sonic game has never made me wanna do before.
I did a "no upgrades, no skill tree, no map, no fishing" playthrough and it was still p easy, just a lot of wandering around aimlessly trying to find portals lmao
I like Frontiers' approach when it comes to boost fights and guardians fights. Despite being on hard mode, they doesn't feel that challenging. Something I would definitely have to try when I'll be familiar enough with them later. I like how you can practice combos the way you like on them before bosses before current boss start doing something.
Dear Lord, no. That first phase where you have to chase it for what feels like an eternity REALLY SUCKS, especially if you die and have to do it all over again. (Yes, this happened to me unfortunately) The Super Sonic portion however, amazing.
So am I. A "LV 1 Critical Mode" is the ultimate challenge for anyone who's beaten Sonic Frontiers. But I will say some restrictions: No using Cyloop for Rings (also involves Portal Gears, Vault Keys or Memory Tokens) Only buying Rings & Memos if fishing with Big Top Speed at 50% Starting Speed at 50%
Didn't even know that double cyloop had a special knock down on the Titans, sick. Should've thought to try it. I made the mistake of maxing out my levels before the final boss, definitely a worse experience when one parry deals 50% of the healthbar lol
This… this is the solution I was looking for!! It’s so simple, but so genius! I always wanted the boss battles to just last longer without having to pull my punches, and I believe this is the best way to do it officially.
Definitely better to play the game this way; I mean I think levelling makes sense for first playthrough while you learn all the mechanics to prevent frustration, but for sure in the end-game being so overpowered makes fights alot less fun when yeah, you are basically one-shotting stuff. On subsequent playthroughs I think keeping level low is a good recommendation, or at least damage power.
At 13:10, Knight experiences the wonder and subsequent agony many of us mere humans experience as a right of passage: Standing on an wheely chair at school and having your friends spin and/or push it.
I actually just started doing this for my second run but just in case I want to load up my save and level up a little bit I'm avoiding any Seeds of Power and Defense because when you get to the Hermit you automatically turn in all the seeds you have.
Should've been a penultimate boss or the second to last main one.... kinda like how mean bean was a special boss for chemical plant in mania Final boss? Seems out of place
I'm already on it, my second run is also on level 1, and just in case I want to level up a little bit and not go overboard I'm trying to avoid grabbing any Seeds of Power and Defense.
@@Wario1382 also i’m not sure how auto combos make the bosses easier…? in fact they’re probably harder that way because your skills do less damage and calling the game “luck based RPG trash” is so far off from how the game actually plays, i’m not even sure what part of the game was even “luck based” aside from the fishing minigame (which is inconsequential)
I'm gonna' have to do this. I just beat the game and supreme just folded to my maxed Sonic. Not that I regret that for my forst playthrough, I wanted to see what Sonic at max was like, but the combat is definately more fun when things don't immediately melt.
What I love about super sonic is it only changes the movement slightly with your moves powered up so you can jump right in. Can't watch the whole video though as I only beat giganto 😂
Eh I just got to level 20 in both defence and power since I decided to do smth with the seeds, then i forgot they existed for the entire playthrough lol
@@marcxworld5708 yeee it doesn’t help that the upgrade dialogue and leveling is so slow Luckily though mods have already been made to improve those aspects of the game
@@GlytchGames True, btw the speed and ring buffs are absolutely useless, plus unlike the seeds, you’re forced to gradually level up, just found levelling them up more tedious than anything
I had no idea that ALL of the first trio of the titans could be hit by Super Sonic's Cyloop (I only knew of Giganto's): - Giganto: a simple, golden tornado that suspends them in the air. - Wyvern: DEMON BINDING CHAINS AROUND ITS ARMS - Knight: SKEWERED BY BEAM-SPEARS OF LIGHT.
For giganto it can end in a slam leaving it stunned. The final titan also has the same cyloop. For Knight when u end the cyloop it sends down a gold spear/trident
I did basically the same thing on my second go-through, but had around 200 rings for each Titan instead of going in with 0 rings. Something I should think about next time lol
Truly amazing how far Sonic has come along mastering his super form Sonic was the first video game I got into when I was 4. Its amazing to see blw strong he's gotten. Proud of you buddy!
And mods that bring Supreme up to the difficulty of the other titans and make The End's fight 3d(like they did with the second Infinite fight in Forces).
If Sonic Frontiers had a LV 1 Critical Mode, this would be it. No skills raised at all, using only the Talents you learn along the way and every enemy has to be handled cautiously. On top of that, you barely do anything and you move at a snail's pace, so your best option would be to do all the Challenges to unlock Fast Travel. Asides that, there are a few other restrictions I should mention. No using Cyloop for Rings (also involves Portal Gears, Vault Keys and Memory Tokens) You can buy only the Memos & Rings if fishing with Big Top Speed must be set to 50% Starting Speed must be set to 50%
Would you recommend playing on lvl 1 for my first playthrough? I'm about 1h deep into the game and reading the comments now made the game look easy. I really want a challenge to enjoy the game, what do you think?
Sonic frontiers titan fights when you have a lot of levels become little more than health bars to practice your moves on. So challenging yourself like this is a good way to change things up.
Getting Frontiers for Christmas (I did not watch the video yet, just skimmed the comments) and the message I’m getting is that Level 1 ATK and DEF on hard mode is the ideal experience, even for a first time play through. EDIT: Now that I’ve played this, I can confirm that no level ups is the way to go.
I’ve finished Frontiers at 100% and I see that you’re doing those in a new game, does it overwrite the data and make you lose everything from the previous game or not ? Also great video, I sure like Boss fights with a ton of handicaps
Yeah, so if you want, you can keep a Save File with OP Sonic & start fresh from a new game as it will overwrite the Autosave only. I actually want to have three files for Frontiers based on stats 1st Save: Maxed 2nd: Base 3rd: 50%
That's because the previous Sonic games never had a combat system, it's just jump and homing attacks. That's why I love Frontiers so much, as of right now it's my favorite Sonic game. The story is good and the gameplay is the best out of all the other Sonic games. It's my personal opinion of course, and I've played all the Sonic games, or rather all the Sonic games that has a story.
"The goal to winning is to efficiently deal heavy damage" You can either do that through skill, or stat boosts. Dear god this is the more satisfying of the two.
Im personally looking for a VERY challenging game so when I get this on black friday I will definetely play it with all lvl 1 upgrades in the hardest mode to have the best challenge possible lol.
I feel like Super Sonic stats should be hard-locked to ignore whatever stats you normally had. Sure this does take away some of the point of stat upgrades, but I am willing to give that up to have amazing bosses, especially since it's technically possible (but really tedious) to max out all stats on Kronos island.
I find it legit hilarious that people called the level one version of this fight spammy and unfun. Sure, it takes some effort, but one, that's why there's badass music, and two, it's WAY more fun than just taking everything out in like three hits. (Did that for the final Titan, and holy shit did it scare me).
I feel like originally you were supposed to destroy all the drones before you could go after him(they would be generating a force field), but they took that out for some reason.
It's OK to upgrade his speed and ring capacity but honestly the seeds are dumb it honestly ruins the game they need patch that makes so we can replay boss fights and toggle upgrades and the last one is for fun remove the outfit restrictions on sonic im not sure you guys realized this but super sonic cant use any outfits
I hate how if you go to the Hermit you automatically give him all the Seeds. That's why I avoid them as I'm going my second run, I want to have Save Slots for the Titan Bosses on Level 1 but only grab the Seeds when I want to reach a certain level.
Supreme got shredded in 2 seconds by my Crossslash since I was max power. I mostly got that strong for achievement purposes. I'm definitely gonna limit if not completely skip upping my power on my 2nd playthrough
I'd do it. It makes fights way more enjoyable. Just be cautious around some enemies like Tank, Strider, Master Ninja and Caterpillar. With only 400 Rings and NO Defense, one wrong move can render you one-shot.
Yes! They need to do that because I can only use 3 saves for 3/4 Titans and it's stupid even though I can use my auto save but I need to quit the game every time before I land on the new island. To add to the challenge they need to make their attacks hurt you. When they hit you, you lose 10 Rings like you did with Solaris and Perfect Dark Gaia.
In the game options where you can adjust sonic speed how do you have it adjusted? In case you could help me as I still can't find the most comfortable form of sonic, please🥺
You can tell the difference between putting on an op and going to everything without a shirt haha, well, I have to replay the whole game to be able to kick the titans' butts as Sega mandates
as much as i love the titan fights, they really really made them so easy to beat, any dmg upgrade above level 1 melts their health bars, they barely attack since they get stunlocked by the super sonic attacks, dont get me wrong, i think these fights are amazing and bring back the feeling of super sonic being op, but like a bit more of a challenge wouldve been awsome yknow? like have them have more hp so that attack upgrades matter, or have them be more aggressive yknow?
Yesterday I started this and am just grinding skill points for combos to make the fight more fun, also I’ll be saving at each fight so I can do any boss whenever
Would the stats even influence the fight against The End? I wouldn’t think so since it’s not Super Sonic that’s fighting Regardless, I might have to try this just so that the boss fights last much longer
On my second playthrough I realized Super Sonic absolutely ripped the titans apart when he had his stats upgraded, even in hard mode. Fitting for someone as op as Super Sonic honestly but the fights became quick work
I really wish you could undo your upgraded stats because I was on ares island and accidentally went from level 30 in defence and attack to over level 50 which is making me destroy enemies way too quickly. I destroyed the second titan in less than 5 minutes which disappointed me. I’m playing on hard mode btw
i think it would be awesome if they add a boss rush mode but give a choice of normal or expert in expert you are only at lv1 just like this but the bosses are harder it gives more incentive to replay them and try and hone your skills
Frontiers' combat system is the kind that works best when you have to do everything you can to damage enemies instead of just one-shotting instantly.
I casually upgraded stuff whenever I ran into the hermit, everything past giganto became easy to one phase as long as I used Parry's and special moves.
I think *most* combat systems are better in that circumstance, and if they aren't, then something might be wrong with them. At least, from my experience.
@Gabriel Salas from my experience, if you have 400 rings match, it only takes 2-3 hits max to lose all of them.
At max damage you get Supreme to 25% hp in 1 parry

Bossfights and overall Minibosses in frontiers are more fun when you’re not one shotting everything imo. Sonic gets extremely op if you keep upgrading his attack and defense stats.

I was impressed that you can cyloop titans at all, but slamming Giganto back down into the ground is even better.
Double the cyloop on the 3 titan you get a sword falling from the sky

Sonic frontiers titan fights when you have a lot of levels become little more than health bars to practice your moves on. So challenging yourself like this is a good way to change things up.
Getting Frontiers for Christmas (I did not watch the video yet, just skimmed the comments) and the message I’m getting is that Level 1 ATK and DEF on hard mode is the ideal experience, even for a first time play through.
EDIT: Now that I’ve played this, I can confirm that no level ups is the way to go.
From 2:14 to 2:53 the music sync is crazy good
thanks for uploading your save!
What do you have for your settings? It looks like you have the frame rates unlocked because it looks very smooth!
I’ve finished Frontiers at 100% and I see that you’re doing those in a new game, does it overwrite the data and make you lose everything from the previous game or not ?
Also great video, I sure like Boss fights with a ton of handicaps
As far as I heard, the auto save dlot is overwriten, the other 3 a free to use as you wish
Yeah, so if you want, you can keep a Save File with OP Sonic & start fresh from a new game as it will overwrite the Autosave only. I actually want to have three files for Frontiers based on stats
1st Save: Maxed
2nd: Base
3rd: 50%
How did you unlock all the skills so fast? Patience or os there something you can do to unlock them all?
9:16,13:20,14:40 These are *Perfect* Sync'd.
I need say that the true final boss is soo addicting to play
A cool idea but out of place for the true final boss-
Should've been one of the later ones buT not the LAST ONE
It shows how much they need to improve supreme if half the time of the boss is just the ending cutscene
*This Is Very Impressive!*
I love the knight fight and wyverns fight at level 1 its so awesome when you don't deplete their hp!
8:26 - 9:50 This entire moment is beautiful
Super Sonic Battles were never so awesome like in this entry.
That's because the previous Sonic games never had a combat system, it's just jump and homing attacks.
That's why I love Frontiers so much, as of right now it's my favorite Sonic game.
The story is good and the gameplay is the best out of all the other Sonic games.
It's my personal opinion of course, and I've played all the Sonic games, or rather all the Sonic games that has a story.
"The goal to winning is to efficiently deal heavy damage"
You can either do that through skill, or stat boosts. Dear god this is the more satisfying of the two.
9:18 WHAT GOES AROUND COMES BACK AROUND AGAINNNN as Wyvern is getting slung around
I love that too.
It matches the words perfectly well.
Yeah, raising all my stats to Max was a mistake. Even on Hard Mode, the gameplay was way too easy.
22:15 Sonic going into full Touhou Mode against a big Moon who wants to kill us ... Hey just like in some Touhou 15 spellcards
More accurately, full Ikaruga Mode.
Im personally looking for a VERY challenging game so when I get this on black friday I will definetely play it with all lvl 1 upgrades in the hardest mode to have the best challenge possible lol.
Supreme should have double or even triple the hp
There's no reason for it to be so criminally brief, especially phase 1
I feel like Super Sonic stats should be hard-locked to ignore whatever stats you normally had.
Sure this does take away some of the point of stat upgrades, but I am willing to give that up to have amazing bosses, especially since it's technically possible (but really tedious) to max out all stats on Kronos island.
"IT'S TIME TO FACE YOU FEARRRRRR CAUSE WHEN YOUR TIME HAS COME AND GON-" *Insert Giganto groaning*
I second this, actually did another run only upgrading speed and nothing else. Makes the combat a lot more fun too.
Can we all agree that the songs for each boss fight with the titans in frontiers are op
I can, when I compare these songs to the songs from previous Sonic games...... Frontiers songs for the Titans are as addicting as crack.
Or better yet a replay feature for bosses, whether they be guardians or titans. Also that they’re tougher, wait that’s new game plus.
I find it legit hilarious that people called the level one version of this fight spammy and unfun. Sure, it takes some effort, but one, that's why there's badass music, and two, it's WAY more fun than just taking everything out in like three hits. (Did that for the final Titan, and holy shit did it scare me).
Like it just came out and everyone is almost finished lol
Almost? We're done😂
@@rishenxb1s705 Well done
@@234SuperSimi Thank you
@@rishenxb1s705 You're welcome
Thanks for the inspiration! My next run will be a lvl 1 run!
I already did a lvl 1 run and it's so damn fun
Same, I just finished my LV 1 Run yesterday & it's honestly pretty damn fun.
Honestly i was more disappointed by supreme than the end. Because of how easy he is, and still is even at level 1
I feel like originally you were supposed to destroy all the drones before you could go after him(they would be generating a force field), but they took that out for some reason.
@@ZachStone3213 yeah you're supposed to destroy the drones, not skipping them and beating the shit out of him
@@xbgsheikiii3593
Oh wow. How'd they not think to put some kind of invul on it until you destroyed its drones?
@@espurrseyes42 💀
It's OK to upgrade his speed and ring capacity but honestly the seeds are dumb it honestly ruins the game they need patch that makes so we can replay boss fights and toggle upgrades and the last one is for fun remove the outfit restrictions on sonic im not sure you guys realized this but super sonic cant use any outfits
I hate how if you go to the Hermit you automatically give him all the Seeds. That's why I avoid them as I'm going my second run, I want to have Save Slots for the Titan Bosses on Level 1 but only grab the Seeds when I want to reach a certain level.
Supreme got shredded in 2 seconds by my Crossslash since I was max power. I mostly got that strong for achievement purposes. I'm definitely gonna limit if not completely skip upping my power on my 2nd playthrough
I'd do it. It makes fights way more enjoyable. Just be cautious around some enemies like Tank, Strider, Master Ninja and Caterpillar. With only 400 Rings and NO Defense, one wrong move can render you one-shot.
They should do a boss rush against "Super Titans" where it's more powerful versions of the titans
Yes! They need to do that because I can only use 3 saves for 3/4 Titans and it's stupid even though I can use my auto save but I need to quit the game every time before I land on the new island.
To add to the challenge they need to make their attacks hurt you. When they hit you, you lose 10 Rings like you did with Solaris and Perfect Dark Gaia.
I literally got goosebumps while playing the titans
In the game options where you can adjust sonic speed how do you have it adjusted? In case you could help me as I still can't find the most comfortable form of sonic, please🥺
You can tell the difference between putting on an op and going to everything without a shirt haha, well, I have to replay the whole game to be able to kick the titans' butts as Sega mandates
I'd love to try this, is there any chance you could share the save files for each boss fight somehow?
Do you have discord, I could send it there, otherwise let me see if I have a place to host it real quick.
@@sonicovertime Thanks, I sent you a message on discord.
@@abdulmukhtar8510 Actually I ended up putting a link in the description, can you give it a try and see if you can download it.
Undertale Neutral-Pacifist run be like:
DId you just spend a lot of time on the first island to get all the abilities?
Yeah spent like 2 and a half hours or so.
@@sonicovertime JEEESSSSUUUUSSSS
Want the best titan fight experience? Max out ring capacity, have level 1 attack, and don't use special moves.
Truly the best.
as much as i love the titan fights, they really really made them so easy to beat, any dmg upgrade above level 1 melts their health bars, they barely attack since they get stunlocked by the super sonic attacks, dont get me wrong, i think these fights are amazing and bring back the feeling of super sonic being op, but like a bit more of a challenge wouldve been awsome yknow? like have them have more hp so that attack upgrades matter, or have them be more aggressive yknow?
Now we see the true power of Super Sonic, its more enjoyable to watch this game and maybe play in the future
Yesterday I started this and am just grinding skill points for combos to make the fight more fun, also I’ll be saving at each fight so I can do any boss whenever
This really just makes me want to restart my game and play with all my stats at 1
What about another video like this, but only the ring count at max level? (Which is your favourite theme?)
That moment where you actually feel bad for eggman
I can never figure out how to cyloop the bosses properly, how do you do it?!
"Best animation
I love watching your UA-cam channel! It's always fun to watch."
what the fuck is your channel
The boss fights were the best part about the game imo
How did you get all the skills and abilities?
Would the stats even influence the fight against The End? I wouldn’t think so since it’s not Super Sonic that’s fighting
Regardless, I might have to try this just so that the boss fights last much longer
On my second playthrough I realized Super Sonic absolutely ripped the titans apart when he had his stats upgraded, even in hard mode. Fitting for someone as op as Super Sonic honestly but the fights became quick work
Probably best to upgrade speed and ring capacity for my next replay of the game
I really wish you could undo your upgraded stats because I was on ares island and accidentally went from level 30 in defence and attack to over level 50 which is making me destroy enemies way too quickly. I destroyed the second titan in less than 5 minutes which disappointed me. I’m playing on hard mode btw
i think it would be awesome if they add a boss rush mode but give a choice of normal or expert in expert you are only at lv1
just like this but the bosses are harder it gives more incentive to replay them and try and hone your skills
To add to the challenge, whenever the Titans hit you it takes away 10 Rings like what happened with Solaris and Perfect Dark Gaia.
Playing sonic frontiers in level 1 is the true hard mode to experience without leveling up
