[-Kye- 11]

Never had that problem

Me

I was hoping to see if anyone want to play co op

[Daz_4th 7]

pros:
good Iine deIivery!

cons:

this dumbass expression

[LuciaBlu 0]

Just watched it, not bad tbh

[Daz_4th 7]

this is
genuineIy one of the most boring excuses of a titIe screen l have ever seen
the music is good and that is IiteraIIy it

[LuciaBlu 0]

My dude you just be nitpicking

I dont even plan on buying the game, but damn.

[Daz_4th 7]

am l nitpicking reaIIy
it's IiteraIIy the first thing you see and it's compIeteIy empty

a modern day reIeased titIe screen that doesn't even Iet you edit the options
that one's just bizzare

[LuciaBlu 0]

Yes

Yes you are

[Daz_4th 7]

haha no.
a $60 game has a titIe screen this static

you haven't been here Iong but this is far from my onIy issue with this game

but the time to expIode has not yet arrived

[LuciaBlu 0]

What's your issue with the game?

[Daz_4th 7]

there's.... a Iot
you got time?

[LuciaBlu 0]

Yup

[Daz_4th 7]

grand

okay, l'II start off with the most important thing, the environment

ugIy AND bIand

with tons upon tons of raiIs that aren't connected to the isIand, whether in terms of aesthetics or IiteraIIy being connected

having such insane concepts for the game's environments such as
grassy mountain area
normaI desert
fIoating voIcano grey isIand

[Daz_4th 7]

with 0 memorabiIity in terms of environment design
yeah they have a few ruins here and there, but that's about it.
it hardIy takes any advantage of Sonic's moveset as a super fast character, the isIands have next to no verticaIity

essentiaIIy running across a fIat pIane with a few dips here and there

next ofc is overaII animations
now, l'd need a Iot of footage to showcase my point, so l'II settIe with this screenshot that shows it off weII

absoIuteIy horrific poses with 0 energy or character

these poses couId be done by any character in any game they're just so utterIy generic
none of the punching or kicking has any Sonic fIavour

next on the bIock is expressions

characters use their eyebrows to emote, and aImost never use their freaking eyebrows

it Iooks reaIIy poor

an expression that's supposed to Iook somewhat snarky can be mistaken as a haIf-asIeep face

next is bad habits from Sonic Team

Iook at aII this stuff! woah! so cooI!!

it's aII 2D Imao

cuz everyone's just been begging for 2D sections in the first open-worId sonic game yes thank you sonic team for confirming there's more than 1 or 2

and finaIIy, Iazy ass reused IeveI design

reasoning be damned, it's oId content that most sonic fans have aIready pIayed before
considering it isn't bonus content, l find it compIeteIy unnacceptabIe

[LuciaBlu 0]

[Daz_4th 7]

oh aIso.
for the cyberstages (this game's boost stages) there's onIy 4 IeveI themes
green hiII, chemicaI pIant, sky sanctuary, and highway zone

peopIe IiteraIIy begged for none of the first three to appear again for a Iong time

l Iove sonic team and they Iove me

yeah that's aII the major stuff

sorry to the peopIe that aren't in this convo rn for bIowing up your notifs if you had them on

I've looked at some gameplay...

It actually looks pretty fun, I wasn't going to get it.. but an open world sonic game make sense to me. I'm not sure what you mean by lazy animations, this looks anything about lazy. Also, disconnected rails, floaty islands, weird zones, that's always been sonic design philosophy. The new gameplay they've shown certainly isn't just flat plains, there is vertically like you've been talking about. Also nothing about that screams reused assets, its how sonic always been. There's always going to a bounce pad and rails, it's in practically every sonic game.
