Sonic Frontiers

I was sure about that because the plot of this game is so nice, sonic now he is being more mature in himself (and i like this) the musics of this game is exellent (like sonic colors musics), now this game in (i think is the first game i don´t know) that show us the open world (and i like this thing), okay and the challenges of this game are a little bit difficult (from the final horizon is so difficult but...), the cyberspaces levels are kinda of nice, the bosses of this game is so great and from the dlc of sonic frontiers is good but there are some kinda of difficultes of this game like going up onthe towers from sonic and the final boss of the dlc is so great.

And the overall of this is 8.7 outstanding SEGA thank you very mutch.

A grind that goes off the rails, literally while you are grinding on the rails.

You have to unlock towers to play the original game style by collecting things in a desolate rainy open world.

Infuriating camera angles, horribly impossible first enemy giganto & unrewarding efforts after winning. The game doesnt even acknowledge your victory after you win the game, & rolls back to before the final boss.

For some reason, the best graphics are when you go fishing, which is the only way to speed up the progress quickly.

If you do play, just go fishing to level up quickly & use rewards to collect keys in order to skip to the end.

The good parts include moving quickly across the map & the original gameplay levels were decent.

Sonic Frontiers is the best 3D Sonic game in recent years. While it may have some issues with a predictable story and some of the glitches, well doesn't affect the difficulties like Sonic 06 had, can make the game a little too easy, it has a lot to make this a game that's actually worth playing with some touching moments with characters that stand out from the previous games, great graphics, some neat gameplay where we get to explore the island, level gameplay that tributes to the classic games, exciting power-ups we would unlock, and as Sonic games would usually go, has offered an awesome soundtrack that perfectly makes the boss levels intense. This is worth playing for Sonic fans. I know some will often criticize the previous 3D games like Sonic 06. But I can guarantee this one is something I think you will have fun with. 2022 has been a pretty great year for Sonic. We got the movie and the TV series. And we have gotten this 3D game that was a great step-up.

I played many Sonic games and I think this is the only one have Open World. When I heard this announced I was like ''Open World Sonic game? I mean well hope they will do it right'' later heard camera will be like Sonic 06 and scared so much. Because I didn't want another 06 fiasco. BUT! Team Sonic promised they will handle this game and they kept their promise. Best 3D sonic game in recent years. Enjoyed every seconds. Very good camera,upgrade system,good voice acting and okay story. Turning into Super Sonic is the most satisfying thing ever. Tbh after played this game just remake Sonic 06....

Sonic Frontiers is a game of interesting but ultimately unfulfilling ideas. While it represents a functional experience, unlike some of its more infamous predecessors, it ultimately left me with a feeling of ambivalence. The game presents a series of ambitious concepts-from its open-world structure to its complex combat-but these elements never quite coalesce into a compelling whole, resulting in a dull and tonally inconsistent adventure.

The most jarring aspect of Sonic Frontiers is its visual design. For a franchise built on vibrant, cartoonish characters, the game's world feels lifeless and bland. The so-called "hub worlds" are abstract, nonsensical landscapes that lack any sense of personality or purpose, often populated with distracting environmental pop-in. This stark contrast between the cheerful, anthropomorphic protagonists and the desolate, realistic-looking environments creates a strange tonal dissonance that permeates the entire experience. While the developers seem to have attempted to liven things up with a few scattered colorful assets, they only serve to highlight the overall visual dullness of the world.

From a gameplay perspective, Sonic Frontiers is an experiment in new directions that may not resonate with the core fanbase. The game introduces a Devil May Cry-inspired combat system, but one has to wonder who was asking for such a dramatic departure from Sonic's traditional "jump on enemies" formula. Similarly, the open-world structure, complete with its Shadow of the Colossus-style monsters and massive boss fights, feels at odds with the fast-paced, linear platforming the series is known for. This desire to introduce new mechanics and genres, while commendable in theory, leaves the game feeling like it has an identity crisis.

Ultimately, Sonic Frontiers struggles to stand out as a modern, next-generation experience. The feeling of being underwhelmed was so strong that it led me to seek out a contrasting experience. Playing Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart alongside it only highlighted the disparities. Rift Apart is a true showcase of ninth-generation console power, with stunning graphics and a cohesive, fast-paced gameplay loop that feels both familiar and fresh. It is an example of what Sonic Frontiers could have been if it had a stronger, more focused vision for its place in the modern gaming landscape.
